  • How To Pray Over Anointing Oil

    How To Pray Over Anointing Oil

    Hi beloved Mama,

    This is such a HUGE part of my daily life that I must share it with you.

    It will change your motherhood.

    Here are some things I’ve witnessed:

    🛡️Peace manifested

    🛡️Dominion established

    🛡️Tantrums prevented/ stopped

    🛡️Deliverance

    🛡️Mindset Changes- more godly

    🛡️Better sleep

    🛡️Affliction gone

    🛡️Heaviness breaks off

    🛡️Clarity returns

    🛡️Instantaneous healings

    Do you think anointing matters?

    It’s only mentioned in the old and New Testament right?

    I mean there’s a reason why “Messiah” means anointed one, right?

    How to Pray over your oil

    Just know, you don’t need any special oil. The power is in the Holy Spirit.

    Common oils used but are not limited to: coconut, avocado, olive, castor and vegetable oil.

    If I need it immediately I will say a quick prayer like: Lord thank you for making this oil holy as You are holy and for filling it with the blood of Jesus, in Jesus name. amen.

    It’s literally that simple and easy.

    Bam it’s ready to be used.

    You can also attach things to it in faith, like … thank you Lord for anointing this oil to bring healings, break strongholds, to make the enemy flee… and I just receive it in faith. It really works. It’s absolutely an incredible and powerful spiritual weapon that I believe God wants us to used daily.

    Tip: pray over EVERY oil that enters your home and consecrate it to God- so whether you are cooking or hydrating your skin, you are receiving more than just oil.

    Stay close to Holy Spirit.

    And these are my favorite top of the line oils for my body. Think of them as the Ferraris in their field. (Savings code: faithrefinedbyfire)

    God bless, JC

    Matthew 6:17 

    “But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face,

    Mark 16:1 ¶ And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint him.

  • The 3-Minute Beauty Revolution: How One Exhausted Mom’s Restroom Revelation Changed Everything

    The 3-Minute Beauty Revolution: How One Exhausted Mom’s Restroom Revelation Changed Everything

    I remember staring at myself in my mother-in-law’s bathroom mirror, desperately trying to feel beautiful again. With a newborn and toddler demanding every second, my former one-hour makeup routine had become an impossible luxury. Each bathroom trip meant hastily applying one piece of makeup, only to find myself at 4 PM with an unfinished face I’d end up washing off in frustration.

    The Moment Everything Changed

    That’s when I discovered something that transformed not just my beauty routine, but my entire approach to motherhood. Through divine intervention, I came across an extraordinary woman who claimed the impossible: a full face of flawless makeup in under 10 minutes.

    Like you, I was skeptical. After years of detailed makeup application, how could anyone achieve a beautiful look in mere minutes? But what I learned next left me speechless.

    The War Paint Revolution

    This wasn’t just about makeup – it was about reclaiming our power as mothers. What I discovered was a revolutionary approach that turns your morning routine into a declaration of strength. Every stroke of the brush becomes a moment of intention, every application a statement of purpose.

    I now call it “war paint” because that’s exactly what it is. Each morning, as I apply my 3-minute face (yes, I’ve gotten it down from 10 to 3 minutes), I’m armoring up for the battles ahead – the sleepless nights, the toddler tantrums, the endless demands of motherhood.

    Beyond Beauty: A Mother’s Secret Weapon

    This transformation goes deeper than looking good. It’s about feeling equipped to answer your calling – whether that’s nurturing your family, pursuing your dreams, or both. When you can look in the mirror and see a woman ready for anything, it changes how you show up for everyone in your life.

    The most beautiful part? This isn’t about spending more time on yourself – it’s about making every second count. No more choosing between feeling beautiful and being present for your children.

    Your Invitation to Transform

    If you’re reading this, feeling the weight of trying to do it all while somehow maintaining your sense of self, I want to share something special with you. I’ve discovered a complete beauty system that’s changing lives, one busy mom at a time.

    This isn’t just makeup – it’s confidence in a compact. Hope in a brush stroke. A way to feel beautiful and powerful in just 3 minutes flat.

    Ready to discover your own war paint revolution? I’ve found something extraordinary that I believe will change your life as it changed mine: Click here to discover the 3-minute beauty transformation

    Because every mother deserves to feel beautiful, confident, and ready to conquer her world – in 3 minutes or less.

  • Cracked Teeth & Broken Molars

    Cracked Teeth & Broken Molars

    I am sooo excited to share this with you Mama!

    What an answer to prayer!

    So after I got off my 4O day fast several months ago, I was totally shocked when I chomped on ice and broke both my molars!

    It really sucked!

    I could not even take my CinnaMate- which is a fine powder on them without it hurting and feeling horrible.

    Kinda had forgot that they were weakened by the extended fasting.

    Brushing teeth … painful.

    Eating… painful.

    Super sensitive.

    I felt like God had me take this herbal drink and believe it or not my teeth started healing over the next weeks. It has everything and more your body needs to make its all collagen from some of the best plants in the world hand picked for your skin and of course teeth need those collagen nutrients to be strong. It’s called Royal. (Savings code for first timers: faithrefinedbyfire)

    Well…

    So this sister in Christ posted about how modern science shows how teeth can actually be repaired now with this natural goodness!

    I was intrigued.

    So I started this tooth brushing herbal goodness… my teeth are being REPAIRED! I saw results after a few days!

    I am sooooo impressed. No pain! No more sensitivity!!!

    The HOPE.

    It’s honestly nothing short of miraculous!

    My hubby said he felt his teeth strengthen after the first use!

    It’s too good not to share.

    Love you, Mama!

    Isaiah 45:15

    Behold, I will make thee a new sharp threshing instrument having teeth: thou shalt thresh the mountains, and beat [them] small, and shalt make the hills as chaff.

  • From Mascara & Lash Extensions Frustration to God’s s Natural Beauty: My Unexpected Eyelash Journey

    From Mascara & Lash Extensions Frustration to God’s s Natural Beauty: My Unexpected Eyelash Journey

    Woman of God, The Lord as led me to a true gem!
    I never thought I’d be sharing about eyelashes in my testimony, but God works in pretty interesting ways!
    For years, I struggled with thin, tiny lashes aka “bald lids” that seemed to mock all my efforts at feeling presentable. Hours spent with falsies, extensions, and endless mascara applications left me feeling exhausted and honestly, a bit ashamed at times of my appearance.

    Ok so back when I was 17 … seems like a lifetime ago lol everyone was trimming their eyelashes because apparently Marylin Monroe did and they grew back like weeds.

    Of course the broken young woman at the time in me wanted to have these long thick lashes and be beautiful just like Marylin…

    I was soooooo wrong!

    Maybe it was working for everyone else but mine NEVER grew back.

    So my bottom lids have always since then been way longer.

    I was devastated! Like hardcore!

    Then I fell into the falsies, the daily eyelash extensions and recently to the 10 day DIY version these past 2 years and LOVED it!

    But just recently as got off of this 40 day fast the Lord started sharing with me how eyelash extensions are something that pharaoh has implanted in woman as his idea of what a beautiful woman is.

    I was SHOCKED!

    I love how He always reveals truth as we are ready to accept it and sometimes before to show us our heart.

    Lately I’ve been feeling like I’ve kinda been fighting against His design instead of nurturing what He’s given to me.

    The Divine Shift in Perspective

    That moment changed everything.

    I was honestly a little bummed because I realllly love the lash extensions.

    I realized I’d been approaching beauty from a place of lack instead of stewardship.

    Just as we’re called to be good stewards of our bodies as temples of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19-20), I felt led to explore natural ways to care for and strengthen what God had already blessed me with.

    Sisters, can I be vulnerable with you? I discovered that my lash struggles weren’t just about vanity – they were about accepting and nurturing God’s creation. When I shifted from “fixing” to “nurturing,” everything changed.

    The Natural Restoration Journey

    I learned about how our lashes have natural growth cycles, just like the seasons God ordained. They need specific nutrients and care to thrive. When we work with His design instead of against it, amazing things happen.

    I’ve witnessed this transformation in my own life and in our lash community. One sister shared how switching to natural lash care freed so much time in her morning routine. Another found freedom from the constant comparison trap that had been stealing her joy.

    Let’s be real, we all want long beautiful natural lashes.

    A Testament to His Faithfulness

    The Lord has shown me that true beauty starts with stewarding what He’s given us. When we align our self-care with His design, using clean, natural ingredients and patient nurturing, we honor the temple He’s entrusted to us.

    If you’re feeling convicted about your own lash journey, I want to share a resource that’s been a blessing in our community. The Scorolash serum uses God’s natural ingredients – peptides and botanicals – to support your lashes’ natural growth cycle. It’s become part of my daily self-care routine, a small act of stewardship that reminds me whose I am.

    Here are some of the amazing natural ingredients that gave me results after only three days.

    Cucurbita Pepo (Pumpkin Seed Extract): Helps prevent hair fall and promotes longer, fuller lashes by slowing the natural eyelash growth cycle.

    Panax Ginseng Extract: Contains ginsenosides, which act as a hair thickener to enhance lash density.

    Swertia Japonica Extract: Supports hair growth and strengthens lashes.

    Acorus Calamus Root Extract: Nourishes and conditions lashes.

    Serenoa Serrulata Fruit Extract: Contributes to lash health and strength.

    Pentapeptide-17: A peptide that stimulates keratin production, promoting stronger and longer lashes.

    Biotinoyl Tripeptide-1: Combines biotin with a peptide to reduce hair loss and enhance lash fullness and length.

    Myristoyl Pentapeptide-17: Stimulates keratin genes to boost lash length and thickness.

    Oligopeptide-10: Supports lash health and growth.

    Hyaluronic Acid: Provides hydration, improving lash flexibility and elasticity.

    Vitamin E (Tocopherol): An antioxidant that nourishes and protects lashes.

    Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid): Supports lash health and brightness.

    Vitamin B7 (Biotin): Strengthens lashes and supports growth.

    Vitamin B5 (Panthenol): Moisturizes and promotes a healthy skin barrier at the lash line.

    Pentylene Glycol: A humectant that helps retain moisture.

    Water/Aqua/Eau: Serves as the base for the formula.

    It’s sooo good!

    Planning to switch out my extensions for this!

    I give God all the glory for this unexpected journey of growth – both in my lashes and my spirit. If you’re ready to step into freedom from harsh chemicals and artificial solutions, I invite you to explore this natural alternative: Learn more about Scorolash here.

  • Postpartum Weight Gain

    Postpartum Weight Gain

    Hey Mama,

    Here’s 22 things that helped me drop and keep off 44 Postpartum pounds.

    1. Grub on some carrots 🥕. You will chew much and be grateful for your next meal haha.
    2. Do micro workouts. And I mean miro. Like 3 squats everytime you go urinate. Progress is progress and I will take it any day!
    3. Fruits! Eat lots of fruit. Not only is it amazing for your breastmilk but it’s the best fast food.
    4. Mindset is everything. Progress over plateau. It’s better to move forward no matter how slow you go than to quit. Never quit!
    5. Go to God. A lot of times when women have weight issues it’s cuz they are holding on to the past. Pray about it.
    6. Stay hydrated. I honestly don’t do much water but I love my clean teas and fruits and veggies.
    7. Switch your food. If you love an unhealthy item- ask God to show you how to make the healthy version.
    8. Ditch the toxic sugar. Replace it with raw honey, real stevia- the whole plant is best- those are my top 2.
    9. Limit meats and keep it clean. Meats take a toll on your kidneys and liver. I prefer plant protein.
    10. Ditch the dairy. I still have some dairy but if it’s highly processed it’s garbage. Go for the fresh clean dairy. Even at that it’s definitely not a daily thing for me. My husband- thats another story haha.
    11. Get off gluten. American gluten is trash unless it’s organic or from another country, I don’t recommend it. This really removes the facial puffiness. It takes about 4 weeks for gluten to be removed from the body.
    12. Do lymphatic facial massages. This will depuff your face.
    13. Don’t get stuck on the scale. It’s not about a goal weight but more of a goal physique.
    14. Don’t aim for skinny- aim for healthy.
    15. Don’t fear loose skin- think about becoming the woman God created you to be as you rebuild and cocreate your body again with God.
    16. One of my fav easy meals: fruit bowl with a protein shake.
    17. Snack on healthy fats. I love avocados and nuts.
    18. Homemade plant based ice cream! This is usually a meal for me and I make it with 3 ingredients and lots of fruit. AMAZING! Everyone loves it!
    19. Listen to God. Pray specially for God to show you when to stop eating. He so will!
    20. Go outside. I feel like this is sooooo important for Postpartum mental health and what a great place to get some physical activity!
    21. My secret weapon: these fat burning capsules. They are clean as clean as can be, energy boosters and they really work. I lost 44 Postpartum pounds with these – keep the weight off even after being off them for months! Started them last month to drop some weight for thanksgiving so I can eat more for the holidays haha. Check em here. Savings code: faithrefinedbyfire. I do 2 in the morning and 2 in the afternoon. For those of us that don’t want to be eating carrots all day haha.
    22. Regular, weekly prayer and fasting. I do this as mainly a spiritual upkeep but as you get closer to God- the weight comes off. He heals everything from emotional eating to hormone problems. Fasting has COMPLETELY changed my walk with God and I LOVE the fruit of it. Total game changer. Check out the books called Shaping History Through Prayer and Fasting by Derek Prince.

    In pray this blesses you, Mama.

    Remember, it’s not a competition, you are beautiful, and ENJOY every moment with your precious family. It only happens ONCE. Above all… make learning Holy Spirits voice your #1 goal by putting God FIRST in everything you do! He is the answer to EVERYTHING.

    Love you! JC
