GOD’S AMAZING DESIGN!

I have heard it said that your food can be your best medicine or a poison that leads to a slow death. Choices matter. God is our CREATOR. That is not just a religious concept. He created us…spirit, soul and BODY. And He gave us an owner’s manual/instructions…the Bible. If we bought a man-made device, wouldn’t we read the manual/instructions that came with it of how to put it together, use and care, etc.? That should certainly be true concerning God’s instruction manual for LIFE….a healthy, prosperous, productive life, with purpose and meaning! One that is worth passing on to the next generation. In a physical world which He ALSO delegated to us to steward well. And we have failed miserably. BUT THERE IS ALWAYS HOPE WITH GOD!!! Repentance and renewal are also not just a religious or spiritual concept. It’s for our physical life, as well!!! For example, here are some of the things I have discovered on just the subject of health and nutrition. EVERYONE from Adam to Noah lived HUNDREDS of years…365 years, 777 years, and several well over 900 years (Genesis 5) with just the instructions in Genesis 1:29 “And God said, ‘I give you every seed-bearing plant growing throughout the earth, vegetables, and every fruit-bearing tree with its seed within itself. They will be your food.’ This was taught from father to son and mother to daughter through all those generations. Noah was 600 years old when he built the ark…a MASSIVE structure (and it still exists, by the way). Talk about a strong, healthy, vigorous and robust “older” man! With only his 3 sons to help him. They didn’t have a lumber store to get their supplies from. They did it all from the forest….and followed God’s instructions. And they took all the food for themselves and the animals into the ark, which lasted them for just over a year. Then God gave Noah permission for the first time to eat meat, telling him to make sure that the blood was completely drained out before eating it. Noah lived another 350 years, 950 total. But his son only lived 600 years. The lifespan of the following generations continued to reduce to around 200 years (Genesis 11). I am convinced that this is because of the addition of meat to their diet. And that was before the chemicals and hormones and GMO feed with chemical pesticides and fertilizers that are in meats today! Another example in scripture is in Daniel 1, with Daniel and his 3 friends who persuaded their overseer to test them by allowing them to eat only vegetables and drink water for 10 days while the others ate choice meats and wine from the king’s table. At the end of the 10 days there was a noticeable difference in their appearance. So, they were allowed to continue with only vegetables and water during the 3 year training period before entering the king’s service. By the time the king was ready to choose from those in training to enter his service, he found Daniel and friends to be 10 TIMES BETTER in all areas of wisdom and understanding THAN EVEN the king’s magicians in ALL the land. What goes on in my body affects my mind, psyche, etc. too!!! Our whole being! It’s all connected in God’s AMAZING design!❤️

FIRE!!!

Seeds begin to germinate and sprout as the earth warms in springtime. However, some seeds, like the Giant Sequoia, Lodgepole Pine, Eucalyptus, and others, require the intense heat of a fire for their seeds to pop open where water can enter and allow them to geminate and grow into the plant that was locked in that seed so long ago.

This is true in our spiritual lives as well. God puts various “seeds” of skills and talents and giftings in each of us at birth. Some are developed right away. Some require time and various “conditions” like formal training or a series of experiences to more fully develop. Then there are those that “pop open” and become more evident in the fire of rebirth and salvation. And even more so as we are increasingly filled with the Holy Spirit and yield more and more to His leading. However, I believe that there are some that require even more intense heat. Scripture says…

Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. (James 1:2-4)

We see trials and persecution of many kinds around the world today…and growing exponentially as these last days before Christ’s return are upon us. When the hard times come, open your heart and spirit to the continual “washing of the Word”. God’s Eternal Word of Truth. Let that Living Water flow into your spirit and soul allowing you to blossom and grow into all that God created you to be…..for such a time as this.

His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. (2 Peter 1:3)

Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen. (Ephesians 3:20-21)

SPIRITUAL BATTLES…YES, THIS IS WAR!

Spiritual battles are REAL! Self-discipline, distraction, procrastination, and fear (of failure, lack of approval or control and more) are big ones for me. And very strong this morning. I used to use my work schedule or being tired (but never age or growing older! 😂) as my “excuse.” But…I can’t use that now. I have no excuse. None of us do. So…

2 Peter 1:3 (NIV)
His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness.

2 Corinthians 10:5 (NIV)
We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.

Then….

Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. James‬ ‭1‬:‭22‬ ‭NIV‬‬

These are commands. And, take a deep breath….this is war!!! But do not shrink back from this most important task.

Now my beloved ones, I have saved these most important truths for last: Be supernaturally infused with strength through your life-union with the Lord Jesus. Stand victorious with the force of his explosive power flowing in and through you. Put on God’s complete set of armor provided for us, so that you will be protected as you fight against the evil strategies of the accuser! Your hand-to-hand combat is not with human beings, but with the highest principalities and authorities operating in rebellion under the heavenly realms. For they are a powerful class of demon-gods and evil spirits that hold this dark world in bondage. Because of this, you must wear all the armor that God provides so you’re protected as you confront the slanderer, for you are destined for all things and will rise victorious. Put on truth as a belt to strengthen you to stand in triumph. Put on holiness as the protective armor that covers your heart. Stand on your feet alert, then you’ll always be ready to share the blessings of peace. In every battle, take faith as your wrap-around shield, for it is able to extinguish the blazing arrows coming at you from the evil one! Embrace the power of salvation’s full deliverance, like a helmet to protect your thoughts from lies. And take the mighty razor-sharp Spirit-sword of the spoken word of God. Pray passionately in the Spirit, as you constantly intercede with every form of prayer at all times. Pray the blessings of God upon all his believers. Ephesians‬ ‭6‬:‭10‬-‭18‬ ‭TPT‬‬

These strongholds are spirits. As we recognize them, we must take authority over them. (Matt. 10:1, Mark 3:14-15, Mark 6:7, Luke 9:1, Luke 10:17, Mark 16:15-18, Matt. 28:18-20) We have the teaching of Christ. We can no longer blame it on our past or other people or situations …or even the devil!

I need to tattoo this at the front of my brain and attach it to an electrified fence for when I step over the line. But this is what the Holy Spirit does for us! (John 16:13) Reminding us and quickening our spirits. Let’s tune our spiritual ears and step into our VICTORY! BE ACCOUNTABILITY! ❤️❤️❤️

1 Thessalonians 5:11 (NIV)
Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.

Continue praying strength and courage and perseverance and so much more for one another daily (Col. 1:9-14; Eph. 1:15-23; Eph. 3:14-21; Phil. 1:3-6) as we each work out (Phil. 2:12-15) our salvation in our souls (mind, will, emotions) that we received immediately in our spirits when we accepted Christ. Growing in the fruit of the spirit (Gal. 5:22-23) and throwing off (crucify! 😖) the flesh, including what we or others put on us and spoke over us…past, present and future! Breaking off those generational curses. DO NOT FALL INTO SELF-CONDEMNATION! That is from the devil. And it is a spirit also. Speak to it. Take authority over it. In Jesus’ name.

I have been PREACHING this to myself. And apparently, we all needed it too. ❤️❤️❤️

Prayer: FROM MY HEART……TO GOD’S HEART by Grace Drake

(As my abundant tears flowed and my words poured out in excruciating agony, God poured into me His words of comfort and faithfulness and truth. And the paralyzing depression lifted.)

Father, You know the hope I have had. And now the deep sadness and longing I feel. With more delay and uncertainty. It seems so long. But it’s just a moment in time to You. I have said, “I don’t have any answers. But I know Who does. And I trust Him completely.” But things didn’t turn out like I thought they would. Help me to find that sweet place again of perfect peace. Of steadfast trusting. Reminding myself, again and again, that You always finish what You start. And You don’t quit until it’s good. That You are faithful, even when I am not. Thank You for reminding me that this is a spiritual battle. And that the job you have given me is much more important than making things happen my way. Or wanting to have all the answers. Because Your ways and thoughts and purposes are far above mine. My job is to trust You and Your Word. And to speak Your Word over this situation. And all of us involved. Using the authority that You have given me over these spirits of darkness and generational curses. Preparing the way for You to work in this situation. Thank You, Father, for guiding me to a place where I once again rest in You.

Scriptures
A thousand years in your sight are like a day that has just gone by, or like a watch in the night. (Psalm 90:4)
You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in You. (Isaiah 26:3)
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. (Proverbs 3:5-6)
Being confident of this, that He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus. (Philippians 1:6)
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose. (Romans 8:28)
The One who calls you is faithful, and He will do it. (1 Thessalonians 5:24)
Finally, be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore, put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people. (Ephesians 6:10-20)
For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. (2 Corinthians 10:3-5)
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways,” declares the Lord. “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts. As the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater, so is My word that goes out from My mouth: It will not return to Me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it. You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and hills will burst into song before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands.” (Isaiah 55:8-12)
Sanctify them by the truth; Your word is truth. (John 17:17)
For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. (Romans 10:10)
God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.” (Genesis 1:28)
Lord, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth! You have set Your glory in the heavens. Through the praise of children and infants You have established a stronghold against Your enemies, to silence the foe and the avenger. When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You have set in place, what is mankind that You are mindful of them, human beings that You care for them? You have made them a little lower than the angels and crowned them with glory and honor. You made them rulers over the works of Your hands; You put everything under their feet: all flocks and herds, and the animals of the wild, the birds in the sky, and the fish in the sea, all that swim the paths of the seas. Lord, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth! (Psalm 8:1-9)
Jesus called His twelve disciples to Him and gave them authority to drive out impure spirits and to heal every disease and sickness. (Matthew 10:1)
They triumphed over him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death. (Revelation 12:11)
A voice of one calling: “In the wilderness prepare the way for the Lord; make straight in the desert a highway for our God. Every valley shall be raised up, every mountain and hill made low; the rough ground shall become level, the rugged places a plain. And the glory of the Lord will be revealed, and all people will see it together. For the mouth of the Lord has spoken.” (Isaiah 40:3-5)
For no Word from God will ever fail. (Luke 1:37)
The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the Word of our God endures forever. (Isaiah 40:8)
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” (Jeremiah 29:11)
Since ancient times no one has heard, no ear has perceived, no eye has seen any God besides You, Who acts on behalf of those who wait for Him. (Isaiah 64:4)
Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and His understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. (Isaiah 40:28-31)
Even there Your hand will guide me, Your right hand will hold me fast. (Psalm 139:10)
Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. (Psalm 91:1)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I woke up this morning with this coming from deep within my heart….just flowing….
in my shower this morning I just couldn’t stop praising my Lord. I am so grateful to our
precious Lord ….that we do not have to have any formalities to praise and worship Abba Father.
He loves hearing our hearts cries.
Sometimes all I can do is praise Abba Daddy for all His amazing Grace in my life.
When life is suffocating me with trials and tribulations…..sometimes I find myself so wrapped up
in the pain I forget to look up….its like drowning in a sea of sorrow.
But when I take the time to breathe…and I look up and begin to sing praises to my Abba Daddy…..the storm clouds disappear and I am able to tackle one mountain at a time.
What an amazing God we serve!
I hope this blesses you today dear ones 😀

My Warfare Weapon

Dear Saints;
Just a short teaching about praying God’s Word over yourself.
You may use which ever translation you wish. Many times I will
use the NIV because of its simple language. If you prefer the KJV, please
use it. I, too, use the KJV in many of my studies.
However, for today, I will be using the NIV.

When I am praying God’s Holy Anointed Words….I make them personal.
I will make this Psalm personal today as an example of how I pray against
the enemy’s attacks against my ministry, family and friends. God’s Holy
Anointed Words can not come back void, nor can it fail in its purpose.
It is the most powerful weapon against the enemy of God.

Dearest Heavenly Father….I come to you today speaking Your Holy
Anointed Words over myself. Hear my heart’s cries Father. Thank You
for Your love, protection, guidance and discipline.

Psalms 91:1-16 NIV

I, who dwell in the shelter of the
Most High, will rest in the
shadow of the Almighty.

I will say of the Lord,
You are my refuge and
my fortress, my God,
in whom I trust.

Surely He will save Me from
the fowler’s snare and from
the deadly pestilence.

He will cover me with His
feathers, and under His wings
I will find refuge; His
faithfulness will be my shield
and rampart.

I will not fear the terror
of night, nor the arrow
that flies by day.

Nor the pestilence that stalks
in the darkness, nor the
plaque that destroys
at midday.

A thousand may fall at my side,
ten thousand at my right hand,
but it will not come near me.

I will only observe with my
eyes and see the punishment
of the wicked.

If I say, the Lord is my Refuge,
and I make the Most High
my dwelling,

No harm will overtake me.
No disaster will come
near my tent.

For He will command His
angels concerning me,
to guard me in all my ways.

They will lift me up in their
hands, so that I will not strike
my foot against a stone.

I will tread on the lion and
the cobra; I will trample the
great lion and the serpent.

Because she loves me, says
the Lord, I will rescue her;
I will protect her, for
she acknowledges My Name.

She will call on me, and I will
answer her; I will be with her
in trouble, I will deliver her and
honor her.

With long life I will satisfy her
and show her my salvation.

Father, this is a promise I know that
I may hold on to.
I know that You are the same
yesterday, today and forever.
I know that You are no respecter
of persons.
I know what You will do for one,
Lord, You will do for me.

Lord, I put my whole trust and faith
in You, and You alone.
My future is in Your Holy Hands.

Thank You for having a plan for my
life, to bless me and not to harm me.
to prosper me and give me a future.

Thank You, Father, that You have
blessed me with a unique talent and
gift so that I may make a living for
myself from my own hands.

Thank You, Lord, for loving me so
very much.

I ask all this in the Mighty and Powerful Name
of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Praying God’s Holy Anointed Words over your situation
is very important. Trusting God no matter what you
see with your natural eyes….but trusting that He
will see you through the storms of life…is extremely
important in your walk with God.

Trust
Believe
Listen
Read
Study
Yield
Obey
Pray
Praise
Worship
Thank Him

Simple formula for overcoming this world’s problems.

I hope this blesses you, dear saints.

To Tell The Truth Is To Walk In Righteousness

To Tell The Truth Is To Walk In Righteousness

As I was praying this past few weeks I began to hear the Lord speak to me 
about TRUTH AND LIES. 

What does the word “Truth” mean? 
Truth means—-
The true or actual state of a matter. 
Conformity with fact or reality. 
Verified or indisputable fact or principle.
A state or character of being true. 
Actual existence. 
Honesty
Integrity

There is NO such thing as a HALF TRUTH or LITTLE WHITE LIES! 

A person is telling the truth or that person is lying! 
It’s a pretty simple concept. 

No one has to be taught how to lie…we are all born with that sinful mind set. 
We must learn to be truthful. 
We must learn to walk in the path of righteous integrity.

What does the word “Lie” mean?
Lie means——
A False statement made with Deliberate Intent to Deceive.
To Knowingly tell an untruth. 
To speak falsely.
To Mislead.  

God revealed to me that His children have fallen victim to this sin. 
It has become so easy for us to lie that many times we don’t even realize it. 
Or we do not consider what we are saying is a lie.

You may read this and say to yourself……Hey, that doesn’t apply to me! 
I am not a liar……
But is that a lie in itself? 

Here are some very common ways God’s children lie, everyday….
these are just a few examples….I could list dozens….

The phone rings….
it’s the pastor….
Sister/Brother….would you mind helping clean the church this week….
How many times have we said….
I’m sorry Pastor….I will not be able to help this week…then we make 
up some excuse…..when the truth of the matter is…we just want to sleep in. 

Or our child ask to go somewhere…and we don’t really feel up to it….
so we make an excuse why we can’t….

You receive a phone call…your home…but you don’t really want to 
chat at the moment…really you don’t want to talk to that person 
calling…so you let the voice mail pick up……
Your voicemail says that you will be happy to return the call 
 as soon as you can……
But you never return the call…..

You get pulled over by a police officer…
the officer tells you that you were speeding..
the officer tells you were driving 75 mph
in a 60 mph zone……
You look all shocked and say…oh no….I 
must have not seen the speed limit sign….
or Oh no…I did not realize I was speeding…
Hoping and praying the officer doesn’t 
write you a situation….

Excuses are LIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And we have all used excuses when we 
didn’t want to do something or we wanted
to avoid someone.
Pretending to be Ignorant, when we are not
is lying as well. 
Deceit is LIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Misleading is a form of lie and deceit!!!!!!!!!!!!

We make excuses everyday for one reason or another. 
We lie to ourselves more than we lie to each other. 
How sad is that? 
It is very sad to me!

Lying comes in many forms. 
Lying can seem ok at the time. 
Lying can even seem like it is the right thing to do.
But according to God’s Holy Anointed Word
lying is never ok. 
Lies come from the master of deceit, Lucifer. 

 Lying is a very dangerous sin.
It is a sin that is over looked, 
dismissed, downplayed 
and ignored. 
It just sneaks in the back door
of our brain…laying in wait for the 
perfect opportunity to come out. 

We as followers of Jesus Christ 
must crucify our flesh and nail 
that stupid sin to the cross every 
single time it raises its ugly head. 

Leviticus 19:11 KJV
“Ye shall not steal,
neither deal falsely,
neither LIE one to
 another.”

Leviticus 19:11 NIV
“Do Not Steal, 
Do Not Lie,
Do Not Deceive 
one another.”

Proverbs 14:5 KJV
“A faithful witness 
will not LIE;
but a false witness
will utter LIES.” 

Proverbs 14:5 NIV
“An honest witness 
does not deceive, but
a false witness pours 
out lies.”

Colossians 3:9 KJV
“LIE not one to another,
seeing that ye have put 
off the old man with
his deeds.” 

Colossians 3:9 NIV
“Do not lie to each 
other, since you have
taken off your old
self with its practices.” 

James 3:14 KJV
“But if ye have bitter
envying and strife
in your hearts,
glory not, and LIE
not against the truth.” 

1 John 1:6 KJV
“If we say that we have
fellowship with Him,
and walk in darkness,
we LIE, and do not 
the truth.” 

Truth isn’t always easy!
Truth more often than not 
is painful!! 
Truth can cause great
emotional pain and sorrow.
Truth has broken up marriages, 
partnerships, divided church
members…..
Truth has caused wars in nations. 
Telling the truth is 
not an easy thing to do in many
cases. 
But to become more Christ like….
We must tell the truth in every 
situation.

We must have a repentive heart…
We must tell the truth….
We must seek out righteousness…..

If we are to become more Christ like
daily….then we MUST NOT LIE!!!

Walk in truth daily and watch your
personal oneonone relationship
with the Father become closer
and closer every single day. 
It is a beautiful thing 😀 

To Tell The Truth Is To Walk In Righteousness!!!!!!!!!!!! 
To Tell The Truth Is To Walk In The Light Of God!!!!!!!!!!!!
To Tell The Truth Is To Walk In Peace With the Lord!!!!!!!!!!

What will you chose to do today?
Walk in Truth? 
or
Walk in lies? 

It is Your decision, it is my decision every 
single moment of every single day to 
follow Christ or to follow satan? 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

Dear ones……
It is my heart’s desire that we each receive this
message as encouragement to overcome the 
weapons the enemy of God has laid out for us to stumble
and fall into. The enemy of God wants us to 
fall into these traps of sin…these pits that 
are able to capture us and hold us in ungodly
bondage.  
It is my desire to share with each of you these messages
of encouragement and correction so each of us may
overcome the pitfalls of the devil.

May God bless you dear one with a beautiful 
walk with Jesus today…walking in Spirit and 
in Truth  😀

Faith, Trust, Obedience and Righteousness

Faith, Trust, Obedience and Righteousness

For many years I have heard Christians use these
4 words in reference to different subject matters
concerning a person’s Christian walk with God.

Faith is thrown around like dirty socks.

Trust is sung about…talked about….
and avoided like the plague….

Obedience is almost non-existent
in today’s Christian world….
God tells us to forgive daily,
to tithe from our first fruits,
repent and turn from our sinful
ways…..but yet we refuse to yield to
God’s Holy Instructions….we want to
do it our way and have it our way,
no matter what!
Like a spoiled brat demanding that
the rich father give into his/her
demands.

I call that the spoiled entitlement attitude.

Christians attend church, revivals,
special conferences, and Christian concerts
on a regular basis.

More Bibles are being sold today than ever
before in history….
Tons of Biblical reference books,
self-help books and books of encouragement
are written, sold and studied….
but yet, few faithful church-goers apply
these wise words of instruction for their
own personal life. Many just go through
the motions of going to Sunday School,
Sunday service, help out in nursery, help
out with other outreach programs, etc…why
because it is what good church-going saints
do.

Many have no idea what discernment is…
Many have no idea how to apply God’s
Holy Anointed Words to their own life’s
struggles….they read the Bible, they hear
the preaching….but they have no idea how
to listen to the Holy Spirit for themselves..

However……

There are a few Christians that truly do follow
the Word of God in their daily life.
But they are few and far between…..
No these folks are not perfect….
Nor do they live a life without pain,
sorrow, trials, storms or tribulations…
and they are tempted daily.

For we all fall short of the glory of God daily.
The difference in these followers of Christ is
simple ….

THEY TRULY SEEK GOD AND HIS
RIGHTEOUSNESS!

THEY PRAY, REPENT AND FORGIVE
THOSE THAT HURT THEM.
They know to be forgiven they must forgive
70 times 7 a day…..no matter what!

AND THEY YIELD TO GOD’S DAILY
INSTRUCTIONS AND HIS DISCIPLINES.

They take God at His word!!! They don’t
question His instructions….they read,
they study, they meditate, they pray,
they praise, they worship, they yield,
they obey…
No matter how they feel emotionally….
No matter how big the mountain is they are
facing…
No matter how big and bad the storms are
that they are going through…
These saints of God put all their trust, hope
and faith in God’s Promises—
And they Crucify their flesh!

NO MATTER WHAT!!!

God tells us if we Love Him, we will keep
His commandments….I think that is pretty
clear.
The Word of God tells us that Jesus did not
come to condemn the law, but to fulfill it.

In this modern day and age we have more
resources, freedoms and opportunities to
hear God’s Holy Anointed Words preached and
taught….we have more opportunities to study the
Word of God. We have freedom
to attend church services in many different
ways. We have a huge variety of denominations
to choose from. We can change churches
like we change outfits. As our moods dictate.

Many are falling away from Righteousness
and seeking out “feel good” messages and
social clubs disguised as God’s Holy Temples,
better known as the local church..
(not all local churches fall into the new age category–
but unfortunately many do)
Many are falling prey to New Age “Christian”
Doctrines……

God is calling His people back to Righteousness!
God is calling His people to true repentance from
the sin that is being committed daily in the body
of Christ…
Inside the Christian communities….
Many are addicted to Pornography,
committing adultery, lusting after another church
member, stealing, lying, addicted to drugs, alcohol,
going to the bars, the casinos….yielding to greed,
hate, unforgiveness……letting their flesh
rule their lives, instead of yielding to the word of
God and the Holy Spirit’s directions.

2 Chronicles 7:14 KJV
“If my people, which are called by My name,
shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek
My face, and turn from their wicked ways;
then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive
their sin, and will heal their land.”

God is looking for men and women that are
willing to pick up their individual crosses
and crucify his/her own flesh every single day.
(crucifying one’s flesh is a painful process…but
the more you do it, the easier it becomes…until
one day it becomes second nature.)

But what I am observing in people are what I
call the “BLESS ME OH LORD, even if I don’t
follow Your commands Syndrome”…..
This has become an epidemic in the body
of Christ.

Yes I know that is harsh…and some may say
I am being to judgmental…
However I need to share what God has laid
on my heart this past 6 months.

The reason I am writing this message is to
show each of us how we need to seek out
God and His Righteousness BEFORE we
ask for God’s favor and blessings. God will
Not Bless an individual who is not yielding
to His Instructions.

Hebrews 11:1 KJV
“Now FAITH is the SUBSTANCE of things
HOPED for, the EVIDENCE of things
NOT seen.”

Hebrews 11:1 NIV
“Now FAITH is CONFIDENCE in what
we HOPE for and ASSURANCE about
what we DO NOT SEE.”

FAITH is an action word…
FAITH is a word that challenges
our intelligence, knowledge and
understanding.
FAITH is a word that breaks most
Christians. Because when FAITH
is tested….many fall into fear and doubt.
Or they begin listening to the news, or
the bankers, creditors or what their

neighbors are telling them…
Instead of trusting the Lord and His
Promises.
Instead of persevering…they begin
to doubt God’s faithfulness
to each of us.

Dear ones…please  hear my heart….
Listen to the Holy Spirit….
Not Man!
If your pastor or teachers are teaching against
what the word of God is saying….
Walk away….and seek God….and pray for
those who are being blinded by the spirit of
lies, deceit, and rebellion.

Faith is a foundational truth in a
Christian’s daily walk with God.

Hebrews 11:2 NIV
“This is what the
ancients were
commended for”

The men and women of the Bible
had great trust, faith,
and obedience…..And God
honored them…
We still read and study their
lives…
Why?
Because God wants to teach us how
to walk by faith…
God wants to show us, even though
none of them were perfect …
none of them were without problems
or fleshly flaws and weaknesses….
They overcame and followed God’s
commands, directions, and disciplines.
And because of that….God honors them
through out history by using their lives
as examples of what to do and what
not to do in our walk with Him.

Hebrews 11:6 NIV
“And WITHOUT FAITH it is
IMPOSSIBLE to PLEASE
God, because anyone who
comes to Him MUST BELIEVE
that He exists and that He
rewards those who EARNESTLY
SEEK Him.”

Matthew 6:33 KJV
“But SEEK ye FIRST the Kingdom of God,
and His RIGHTEOUSNESS; and All  these
things shall be added unto you.”

These 2 scriptures are key to any person’s

one-on-one personal walk with God.
It is impossible to please God without
walking in faith.
God will Not HONOR or BLESS a person
who DOES NOT BELIEVE in Him,
TRUST in Him and OBEY Him!

GOD CAN NOT and WILL NOT shower blessings
upon someone who is walking in DISOBEDIENCE
and REBELLION  against Him and His commands!!

If you need healing in your body…
Then research all the scriptures that
deal with healing….see how God healed
that person…see what God ask  that
person to do before He healed that person.
And begin to hold onto those promises..
make God’s words personal for you and
your situation.

If you need a breakthrough in your finances…
then research every scripture in the Bible that
deals with God’s supernatural provisions and
how He blessed those that trusted in Him.
Give your tithe, step out in faith and go into
the realm of offerings….
The only place God gives us permission to
test him, is in our finances…..
But if you are not tithing…if you are not
giving to God…
Then do not expect God to bless your finances.
Don’t be like that spoiled brat who demands
the father’s favor….
Humble yourself before God and seek His
Holy Promise and Holy instructions….
read them, meditate on them…yield to them
and obey God….
And watch Gods hand of favor and blessing
fall upon you and your family.

God tells us in…..

Deuteronomy 8:18 KJV
“But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God;
for it is He that giveth thee power to get
wealth, that He may establish His
covenant which He sware unto thy fathers,
as it is the day”

Deuteronomy 8:18 NIV
“But remember the Lord your God, for it is He
who gives you the ability to produce
wealth, and so confirms His covenant, which
He swore to your ancestors, as it is today.”

This scripture tells me that…God has blessed
every person on this earth with a special
ability, talent, and gift that will help him/her
make a living for themselves and their families.
Whether it is a great career working for someone
else, or becoming a business owner, or becoming
a major inventor or designer of something amazing…
(for example the paper clip, hair scrunchies, or post it notes)
Or a great scientist, doctor, teacher or civil servant…..each person
on earth has a special calling on his/her own life.

God is the same yesterday, today and forever….
God is no respecter of persons….
God is not moved by our emotions….
God is not moved by our situations, no
matter how bad it is…..
God is not moved by our tears…
God is not moved by our good works….

GOD IS ONLY MOVED BY OUR
OBEDIENCE AND FAITH!

God is the same Yesterday, Today and Forever!!!
God has not changed!
God’s Word has not changed!
God’s Commandments have not changed!
God’s Love has not changed!
God’s Mercy and Grace has not changed!
Nor has his anger, wrath and judgements
changed……God is God and His ways are
not our ways..His understandings are not
ours.

We all will face trials, tribulations, storms,
temptations, and persecutions….the Word
of God tells us that if they hated and persecuted
Christ….then how much more will they hate
and persecute His followers…

There is NO NEW SIN ON THIS EARTH!!!
What we are seeing through social media and
multi-media from around the world is no different
than the days of Noah…..

The only reason it looks so new and horrific is very
simple….

IT’S IN OUR FACE DAILY!!!

No one can turn on the news, go to a social media site
without being faced with these horrors being committed
to human beings all over the world. What am I talking
about is aborted babies, abused and murdered children,
people being beheaded, burned alive, raped until they
die…etc….These horrors are happening all over the
world…including America.

The Body of Christ is frozen in fear of these horrors—
instead of PUTTING ON THE FULL ARMOR OF
GOD AND GOING TO WAR IN THE HEAVENLIES
AGAINST SATAN’S WEAPONS…
God’s Word tells us that we do not wrestle against
flesh and blood but against principalities…..
in other words we are fighting the devil and
his demons……
Ephesians 6:10-18….

God’s Word tells us that —
His people perish from lack of knowledge!
Knowing how to read God’s Word,
Knowing how to Pray using God’s Word
against the enemy’s attacks is imperative to our
success in Spiritual Warfare!

Dear ones…
if you want God’s favor…
if you want God’s blessings….
if you want your loved ones saved…
if you want to have a closer walk with God….
then let me challenge you to get out your Bible….
and seek out God’s Holy Anointed Word for
yourself and your situation…
And REPENT FOR EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!!
Go through the names of friends and families
and ask God to show you who you need to forgive..
and ask God to show you who you need to go
to ask for their forgiveness also…
Do some much needed Spiritual Spring cleaning
and get rid of anything that could keep you
from a closer walk with your Lord and Savior.

Yes God’s mercies are renewed every single
morning….
But remember, dear saints….
God is the Same Yesterday, Today and Forever!
His Words, His Commands have not changed!
God loves us so very much that He accepts us
and loves us where we are…
But He loves us so very, very, very much that He
REFUSES TO LEAVE US IN THAT STATE OF
MIND-SET!

LET GO AND LET GOD DO HEART SURGERY
AND CLEAN OUT THE DEVIL’S COBWEBS
HE HAS DIRTIED YOUR SOUL (mind, will, emotions),
HEART AND SPIRIT WITH.

Here is a quick, tried and true formula that will
help you stand against the enemy’s weapons
launched against you and your loved ones

A. Read God’s Word Daily
B. Repent for everything Daily
(remember we all fall short of the
glory of God daily…in other words..
we mess up and sin daily)
C. Forgive your enemies 70 times 7 A Day!
(you must forgive to be forgiven)
D. Love your enemies
(bless your enemies)
E. Study God’s Holy Word Daily
F. Meditate on God’s Word
G. Pray for others Daily
H. Worship God Daily
I. Have a Grateful Heart
J. Give God Thanks Daily
K. Bless others in need, no matter
how little you may have.
L. ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS
Pay your TITHE!!!!!!!
M. Ask God where He wants you to
sow financial seeds…..not all
work is fertile Godly soil….
Let God guide you to the right
place to sow seeds….and He will.
Just trust Him!

Let go of selfish desires.
Let go of selfish ambitions.
Let go of vengeance.
Let go of hate.
Let go of materialism.
Let go of greed.
Let go of lust.
Let go of anything that can
hinder your walk with God.

Please hear my heart……

Dear Saints….

Let’s take back what the devil has
stolen from the Followers of Christ
Jesus! One soul at a time!
One Giant,
One Mountain,
One Battle at a time!
Let the Body of Christ
unit and stand together
FIGHTING the GOOD
FIGHT of FAITH!!!
WINNING SOULS FOR THE KINGDOM OF GOD!

My Love and Prayers are with you, dear ones.

Message—October 25, 2015

Isaiah 38:1-7 NIV

“In those days Hezekiah became 
ill and was at the point of death. 
The prophet Isaiah son of Amoz
went to him and said, 
This is what the Lord says: 
Put your house in order, 
because you are going to die;
you will not recover.

Hezekiah turned his face to the 
wall and PRAYED to the LORD.
Remember, O Lord, how I have 
WALKED before You FAITHFULLY
and with WHOLEHEARTED DEVOTION
and have done what is good in Your eyes.
And Hezekiah wept bitterly.

Then the word of the Lord came 
to Isaiah: Go and tell Hezekiah,
This is what the Lord, the God 
of your father David, says: I 
have HEARD YOUR PRAYER
and SEEN YOUR TEARS; I 
will DELIVER you and this city 
from the hand of the King of
Assyria. I WILL DEFEND 

this city. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is the Lord’s SIGN to you
that the LORD WILL DO 
WHAT HE HAS PROMISED.”

Dear Ones….God is looking to hear from each
of us in earnest heart felt prayers of petition,
thanksgiving, intercession, praise, & worship.

Our Lord desires to have a chat with us
many times a day….everyday….. 
God created us for His pleasure.
God created us for His desires of love,
compassion, and blessings. 

Many are facing horrific situations.
Some are sick in body and spirit. 
Some are facing career changes,
relationship changes. 
Some are facing the loss of a loved one. 
Many are being persecuted for 
their belief in Christ Jesus. 

Whatever your situation is today…..
God is the Answer! 
The word of God has the answers!
Let me encourage you to get alone
with your Bible, let the Holy Spirit 
guide you to His Holy Promises. 
Then fall on your face and worship
the Lord with all your heart and soul. 
Worship God with all you have. Praise
Him in the storm of your life.
Give God thanks for all the many 
many blessings He has showered upon
you each day of your life. 

Cry out to God.
Repent for any shortcomings 
and weaknesses. 
Give thanks. 
Worship Him in Spirit and truth.
Find God’s promises that apply to 
your situation….
Begin to hold onto that promise. 
Sow seeds of faith.
If you are sad…..encourage someone…
If you are ill…..pray for someone else’s healing….
If you are in need of a financial breakthrough…..
sow financial seeds into a good fertile ministry that
is winning souls for Christ Jesus, providing 
for the widows and orphans…feeding the hungry
and sheltering the homeless. 
If you lack wisdom….then ask God to bless 
you with His wisdom. 

We all face bad situations from time to time. 
Just remember…..
God loves you very, very much…

Hezekiah was warned he was going to die..
He was told to get his affairs in order. 
But He knew He had been faithful and true. 
He held onto to His faith in God, for mercy
and healing. He cried out from the depths 
of his soul for healing. 
God heard his prayer. 
God showed compassion to Hezekiah.
As a result of Hezekiah’s faithbased prayer,
God granted him life, healing, compassion,
mercy, and grace.

Hezekiah didn’t just go to church and 
hear a preacher preach…no…
Hezekiah knew who God was.
Hezekiah knew that God would answer
his humble pleas for healing of his sick body. 
Hezekiah put his faith in God to work for 
his situation. 
Hezekiah trusted God, believed in God’s promises.
Hezekiah had faith that God would hear his 
prayers for mercy and healing. 
Hezekiah was confident in his faith.

Who or what do you put your faith in?
Are you confident enough in God to know
how to cry out to Him for your personal 
needs to be met? Whether it is healing or 
financial..or the salvation of a loved one….
Who do you trust? 
What is your faith based on?

He will never leave you, nor will He 
forsake you! 

God has a plan for you, to bless you,
and not harm you.

Greater is He who lives in me, than he 
that lives in the world…..

Ask God to reveal Himself to you.
Ask God to help you learn about His
Holy Promises. 
Ask God to help you walk by faith, 
not by sight. 

Christ Jesus paid the price for your
salvation …. just accept it…it is free for the asking!

God is the same yesterday, today and forever. 

What God did for Hezekiah, He will
do for you. If you truly trust in Him. 

Matthew 6:33 is a key scripture we all must
learn to do in our walk with God. 

Hebrews 11 tells us how the ancient believers
followed God by faith and trust. 

Remember FAITH is an action word! 
Remember FAITH is believing for 
something that has not happened yet. 
If you can do it yourself or obtain it
by yourself…that is not faith….

Dear ones……if you need a touch from the 
Master today…then get alone with your
Bible and seek Him….God is waiting
patiently to hear from you today.  

Remember, God loves us so very much
that He gave His only son to die for our
sins. 

Remember God is for you 😀 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dearest Heavenly Father,
I come to You this morning in repentance for 
not being more diligent in my service to You,
my King. 

Lord, I come to You humbly with a heart 
full of compassion for all the many 
dear souls around the world hurting. 

Father I speak healing over the ones who 
are sick in body. 
By the wounds on Christ Jesus they were 
healed! 
It is finished. 

Father, I pray for all those who are facing
the loss of a loved one. 
Lord, bless them with Your supernatural
peace of mind and spirit. 
Heal their broken hearts. 
Give them comfort in the darkest of nights.

Father, I pray for all those who are facing
divorce….
Lord, bless them with peace in their hearts.
Father, I pray that You draw them closer to you.
Lord, reveal Your Holy Love to them. 
Bring them out of darkness into the light 
and life of Jesus Christ.

Father, for all those who are facing financial
difficulties…reveal to them the gifts and talents
You have blessed them with. Your Holy Word 
tells us that You give each one of us ability
to create wealth in our own hands…
So Father, reveal to each person reading 
this message and prayer today, the plan You 
have ordained for them to overcome poverty.
Lord, help them to know it is by work, not 
by welfare or handouts. 
Reveal to each of them how to trust You in
their personal finances. Lord, guide their 
steps into Your Holy Promises of Thriving,
not just Surviving. 

Father, I pray for all those who are being 
persecuted for loving Jesus. 
Lord, give them supernatural faith, trust 
and hope in You. 
Holy Father, bless them with supernatural 
peace and courage.
Lord, take away their pain. 
Lord surround them with angels to guide 
them through the terror of their situation. 

Lord, I pray that You guide this message 
to the ones who need to hear this today. 

Lord, bless each and every one of Your 
saints around the world with supernatural
courage, faith and determination to keep
fighting the good fight of faith every 
single day of their lives. No matter what 
they are facing. 

Father, I praise You with all my heart. 
Father, I thank You from the depths of my soul.
Father, I worship You from the depths of my spirit. 

Lord, thank You for another new day to serve You
throughlove and compassion. 

Father, thank You for hearing my heart today.

In the Mighty and Powerful Name of Jesus Christ I Pray
Amen and Amen

Dear ones, please let us know how we may pray for you. 
You are all in my thoughts and prayers daily. 
Please let us know if these messages are a blessing to you
in any way. 
We love to hear from our brothers and sisters 😀
