Chosen to Stand. Anointed. Speak. Go Forth. Chosen to Represent His Mighty Name. (10.31.20)



My Child,
Do not worry about those who have come against you,
Do not worry about those who have seemingly shut you out.

Open your spiritual eyes and you will see there are more standing with you than there are against you.

I Have both seen and heard what has been done to you. I Am not hindered by their actions.  And neither are you.  Do not be envious of what they are doing, for soon they will be cut down.

You have been Chosen to Stand in My Name.  You have been Chosen to do the work I Have Called you to do. So, Stand in My Name.


the enemy would like you to think that doors are shut against you, but it is only an illusion. the enemy cannot shut doors.  the enemy can attempt to convince you, attempt to deceive you, into believing that those doors are shut.  the enemy cannot shut any doors I have opened, nor can the enemy open a door I Have closed.

I AM GOD!
I Have all Power!
All Dominion!
The Final Say!

You are to commit - right now, this day - all that you are doing unto Me, so that you will prosper in every good thing and in every good way. Let Me Be concerned about what the enemy is doing.  I Just need you to focus on Me.
 
Rise up.
Begin walking forth once more.

Do not allow the enemy to hinder the work we have begun. Many of you have only just begun to walk in My Name. Many of you have only begun to see My Miracles.  Many of you are "newly called," but you are "powerfully anointed" for a Mighty Work I Have begun in you.  Many of you are "called, blessed and highly favored;" continue to do the Work of My Hands. 

Child, I Will do, as you speak My Word. 
Hear As you SPEAK My Word.....

There is so much I have yet to show you.
You are anointed and chosen before Me.

So, stand strong in the authority - My Authority - I Have imparted in you, and empowered you to defeat the enemy standing in your way.

Speak to the mountains.
Go forth because the door is open.

I AM with you.
And I AM always right on time.

Now rise up.

And do what I Have
      told you to do.

 





~ My Prayer Confession ~
Oh Lord,
Thank you for helping me to understand
     that I should not be concerned about
     those who come against me.

I Know "greater is He who is in me,
     than he who is in this world."

I Know You are ALWAYS standing with me
     as I face my battles.

And with You Lord, I can stand against
     anything and anyone.

I am suited up in Your Armour,
     and I stand victorious in
     Your Mighty Name.




READ AND MEDITATE ON GOD'S WORD:

~ Psalm 37 ~

The Fate of Sinners and the Reward of the Just

Of David.

Aleph

Do not be provoked by evildoers;
    do not envy those who do wrong.
Like grass they wither quickly;
    like green plants they wilt away.

Beth

Trust in the Lord and do good
    that you may dwell in the land and live secure.
Find your delight in the Lord
    who will give you your heart’s desire.

Gimel

Commit your way to the Lord;
    trust in him and he will act
And make your righteousness shine like the dawn,
    your justice like noonday.

Daleth

Be still before the Lord;
    wait for him.
Do not be provoked by the prosperous,
    nor by malicious schemers.

He

Refrain from anger; abandon wrath;
    do not be provoked; it brings only harm.
Those who do evil will be cut off,
    but those who wait for the Lord will inherit the earth.

Waw

10 Wait a little, and the wicked will be no more;
    look for them and they will not be there.
11 But the poor will inherit the earth,
    will delight in great prosperity.

Zayin

12 The wicked plot against the righteous
    and gnash their teeth at them;
13 But my Lord laughs at them,
    because he sees that their day is coming.

Heth

14 The wicked unsheath their swords;
    they string their bows
To fell the poor and oppressed,
    to slaughter those whose way is upright.
15 Their swords will pierce their own hearts;
    their bows will be broken.

Teth

16 Better the meagerness of the righteous one
    than the plenty of the wicked.
17 The arms of the wicked will be broken,
    while the Lord will sustain the righteous.

Yodh

18 The Lord knows the days of the blameless;
    their heritage lasts forever.
19 They will not be ashamed when times are bad;
    in days of famine they will be satisfied.

Kaph

20 The wicked perish,
    enemies of the Lord;
They shall be consumed like fattened lambs;
    like smoke they disappear.

Lamedh

21 The wicked one borrows but does not repay;
    the righteous one is generous and gives.
22 For those blessed by the Lord will inherit the earth,
    but those accursed will be cut off.

Mem

23 The valiant one whose steps are guided by the Lord,
    who will delight in his way,
24 May stumble, but he will never fall,
    for the Lord holds his hand.

Nun

25 Neither in my youth, nor now in old age
    have I seen the righteous one abandoned
    or his offspring begging for bread.
26 All day long he is gracious and lends,
    and his offspring become a blessing.

Samekh

27 Turn from evil and do good,
    that you may be settled forever.
28 For the Lord loves justice
    and does not abandon the faithful.

Ayin

When the unjust are destroyed,
    and the offspring of the wicked cut off,
29 The righteous will inherit the earth
    and dwell in it forever.

Pe

30 The mouth of the righteous utters wisdom;
    his tongue speaks what is right.
31 God’s teaching is in his heart;
    his steps do not falter.

Sadhe

32 The wicked spies on the righteous
    and seeks to kill him.
33 But the Lord does not abandon him in his power,
    nor let him be condemned when tried.

Qoph

34 Wait eagerly for the Lord,
    and keep his way;
He will raise you up to inherit the earth;
    you will see when the wicked are cut off.

Resh

35 I have seen a ruthless scoundrel,
    spreading out like a green cedar.
36 When I passed by again, he was gone;
    though I searched, he could not be found.

Shin

37 Observe the person of integrity and mark the upright;
    Because there is a future for a man of peace.
38 Sinners will be destroyed together;
    the future of the wicked will be cut off.

Taw

39 The salvation of the righteous is from the Lord,
    their refuge in a time of distress.
40 The Lord helps and rescues them,
    rescues and saves them from the wicked,
    because they take refuge in him.

#ScriptureReflection - Philippians 1:1-11 (10.30.20)

Paul and Timothy, slaves of Christ Jesus,
to all the holy ones in Christ Jesus who are in Philippi,
with the bishops and deacons:
grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

I give thanks to my God at every remembrance of you,
praying always with joy in my every prayer for all of you,
because of your partnership for the Gospel
from the first day until now.
I am confident of this,
that the one who began a good work in you
will continue to complete it
until the day of Christ Jesus.
It is right that I should think this way about all of you,
because I hold you in my heart,
you who are all partners with me in grace,
both in my imprisonment
and in the defense and confirmation of the Gospel.
For God is my witness,
how I long for all of you with the affection of Christ Jesus.

And this is my prayer:

that your love may increase ever more and more
in knowledge and every kind of perception,
to discern what is of value,
so that you may be pure and blameless for the day of Christ,
filled with the fruit of righteousness
that comes through Jesus Christ
for the glory and praise of God.

Never Stop Believing In God..... (10.29.20)


 
Genesis 32:24-26 - So Jacob was left alone and a man wrestled with him till daybreak. When the man saw that he could not overpower him, he touched the socket of Jacob's hip so that his hip was wrenched as he wrestled with the man. Then the man said, Let me go, for it is daybreak. But Jacob replied; I will not let you go unless you bless me.

My Child,
Do not stop believing in Me and spending time with Me, for you know that I Am always standing near.

I Do not want you to allow any of your circumstances to cause you to lose heart, when you need Me. My Promises should always be in your heart and upon your lips.  Always.  You must not allow the enemy to make you believe that I Do not care, and that I Won’t deliver. 

Keep your eyes on what
      I Have promised you.
Do not stop praying.
Do not stop believing.

Do not let the circumstances of this world stop you from praising and worshiping Me.  Do as My Child Jacob did, stay right there, and do not turn loose until you receive your blessing.

Write the vision that I Have given you.
And make it plain.

Now, start declaring and decreeing it,
     in faith, daily.
Daily.... 
Bring it into My Presence.
Hold onto your dream.
And do not let go of My Promises.


My Child, I Am not a forgetful GOD; however, I Want you to talk to Me, daily, in prayer, about My Word.  I Love to hear My Children remind Me of what My Word says. It lets Me know how much you all love Me.  It shows that you know Me, when you know My Word.

Mark 11:24 - Therefore, I say unto you, What things so ever  ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.

Know Me.  Know My Word.  For those blessings have your name all over them! Do not let the enemy steal your Vision! Stand on My Word and be blessed.

Expect it!
Believe it! 
I Am with you.

Fight the good fight.
Hold on.
I Love you.


And for those of you that have to start again;
remember, if you don't quit, you will win. 
But if you quit, you can't win!

#ScriptureReflection - Daniel 2 (10.28.20)

Chapter 2

Nebuchadnezzar’s Dream.[a] In the second year of his reign, King Nebuchadnezzar had a dream which left his spirit no rest and robbed him of his sleep. So he ordered that the magicians, enchanters, sorcerers, and Chaldeans[b] be summoned to interpret the dream for him. When they came and presented themselves to the king, he said to them, “I had a dream which will allow my spirit no rest until I know what it means.” The Chaldeans answered the king in Aramaic:[c] “O king, live forever! Tell your servants the dream and we will give its meaning.” The king answered the Chaldeans, “This is what I have decided: unless you tell me the dream and its meaning, you shall be cut to pieces and your houses made into a refuse heap. But if you tell me the dream and its meaning, you shall receive from me gifts and presents and great honors. Therefore tell me the dream and its meaning.”

Again they answered, “Let the king tell his servants the dream and we will give its meaning.” But the king replied: “I know for certain that you are bargaining for time, since you know what I have decided. If you do not tell me the dream, there can be but one decree for you. You have conspired to present a false and deceitful interpretation to me until the crisis is past. Tell me the dream, therefore, that I may be sure that you can also give its correct interpretation.”

10 The Chaldeans answered the king: “There is not a man on earth who can do what you ask, O king; never has any king, however great and mighty, asked such a thing of any magician, enchanter, or Chaldean. 11 What you demand, O king, is too difficult; there is no one who can tell it to the king except the gods, who do not dwell among people of flesh.” 12 At this the king became violently angry and ordered all the wise men[d] of Babylon to be put to death. 13 When the decree was issued that the wise men should be slain, Daniel and his companions were also sought out.

14 Then Daniel prudently took counsel with Arioch, the chief of the king’s guard, who had set out to kill the wise men of Babylon. 15 He asked Arioch, the officer of the king, “What is the reason for this harsh order from the king?” When Arioch told him, 16 Daniel went and asked for time from the king, that he might give him the interpretation.

17 Daniel went home and informed his companions Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, 18 that they might implore the mercy of the God of heaven in regard to this mystery, so that Daniel and his companions might not perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon. 19 During the night the mystery was revealed to Daniel in a vision, and he blessed the God of heaven:

20 “Blessed be the name of God forever and ever,
    for wisdom and power are his.
21 He causes the changes of the times and seasons,
    establishes kings and deposes them.
He gives wisdom to the wise
    and knowledge to those who understand.
22 He reveals deep and hidden things
    and knows what is in the darkness,
    for the light dwells with him.
23 To you, God of my ancestors,
    I give thanks and praise,
    because you have given me wisdom and power.
Now you have shown me what we asked of you,
    you have made known to us the king’s dream.”

24 So Daniel went to Arioch, whom the king had appointed to destroy the wise men of Babylon, and said to him, “Do not put the wise men of Babylon to death. Bring me before the king, and I will tell him the interpretation of the dream.” Arioch quickly brought Daniel to the king and said, 25 “I have found a man among the Judean exiles who can give the interpretation to the king.” 26 The king asked Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, “Can you tell me the dream that I had and its meaning?” 27 In the king’s presence Daniel made this reply:

“The mystery about which the king has inquired, the wise men, enchanters, magicians, and diviners could not explain to the king. 28 But there is a God in heaven who reveals mysteries, and he has shown King Nebuchadnezzar what is to happen in the last days; this was your dream, the visions[e] you saw as you lay in bed. 29 To you in your bed there came thoughts about what should happen in the future, and he who reveals mysteries showed you what is to be. 30 To me also this mystery has been revealed; not that I am wiser than any other living person, but in order that its meaning may be made known to the king, that you may understand the thoughts of your own mind.


31 “In your vision, O king, you saw a statue, very large and exceedingly bright, terrifying in appearance as it stood before you. 32 Its head was pure gold, its chest and arms were silver, its belly and thighs bronze, 33 its legs iron, its feet partly iron and partly clay.[f] 34 While you watched, a stone was hewn from a mountain without a hand being put to it, and it struck its iron and clay feet, breaking them in pieces. 35 The iron, clay, bronze, silver, and gold all crumbled at once, fine as the chaff on the threshing floor in summer, and the wind blew them away without leaving a trace. But the stone that struck the statue became a great mountain and filled the whole earth.

36 [g]“This was the dream; the interpretation we shall also give in the king’s presence.

37 
You, O king, are the king of kings; to you the God of heaven has given dominion and strength, power and glory;
38 human beings, wild beasts, and birds of the air, wherever they may dwell, he has handed over to you, making you ruler over them all; you are the head of gold. 39 Another kingdom shall take your place, inferior to yours, then a third kingdom, of bronze, which shall rule over the whole earth. 40 There shall be a fourth kingdom, strong as iron; it shall break in pieces and subdue all these others, just as iron breaks in pieces and crushes everything else. 41 The feet and toes you saw, partly of clay and partly of iron, mean that it shall be a divided kingdom, but yet have some of the hardness of iron. As you saw the iron mixed with clay tile, 42 and the toes partly iron and partly clay, the kingdom shall be partly strong and partly fragile. 43 The iron mixed with clay means that they shall seal their alliances by intermarriage, but they shall not stay united, any more than iron mixes with clay. 44 In the lifetime of those kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that shall never be destroyed or delivered up to another people; rather, it shall break in pieces all these kingdoms and put an end to them, and it shall stand forever. 45 That is the meaning of the stone you saw hewn from the mountain without a hand being put to it, which broke in pieces the iron, bronze, clay, silver, and gold. The great God has revealed to the king what shall be in the future; this is exactly what you dreamed, and its meaning is sure.”

46 Then King Nebuchadnezzar fell down and worshiped Daniel and ordered sacrifice and incense offered to him. 47 To Daniel the king said, “Truly your God is the God of gods and Lord of kings and a revealer of mysteries; that is why you were able to reveal this mystery.” 48 He advanced Daniel to a high post, gave him many generous presents, made him ruler of the whole province of Babylon and chief prefect over all the wise men of Babylon. 49 At Daniel’s request the king made Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego administrators of the province of Babylon, while Daniel himself remained at the king’s court.



Footnotes:

  • a)  2:1–49 The chronology of v. 1 is in conflict with that of 1:5, 18, and in 2:25 Daniel appears to be introduced to the king for the first time. It seems that the story of this chapter was originally entirely independent of chap. 1 and later retouched slightly to fit its present setting. The Septuagint (Papyrus 967) reads the twelfth year instead of the second.
  • b)  2:2 Chaldeans: because the Babylonians gave serious study to the stars and planets, “Chaldeans” were identified with astrologers throughout the Hellenistic world. 
  • c)  2:4 Aramaic: a gloss to indicate that at this point the text switches from Hebrew to Aramaic, which continues through the end of chap. 7; at 8:1, the text switches back to Hebrew.
  • d)  2:12 Wise men: the satire, although directed against the Babylonian diviners in the text, refers to the Hellenistic Greeks, who made special claims to wisdom; the assertion here is that true wisdom comes from God and resides with the Jews. Cf. also chap. 5.
  • e)  2:28 The visions: lit., “the visions of your head,” a phrasing which distinguishes visionary experiences that are personal from those that are observable by others (see 4:2, 7, 10). That Daniel, unlike the Chaldeans, has access to these visions testifies to his God-given wisdom. Actually, this “dream” is more properly an apocalyptic vision; cf. the very similar message in Daniel’s vision of chap. 7.
  • f)  2:33 Clay: it has been suggested that the motif of iron mixed with clay implies a hollow metal statue packed with clay to stabilize it. In the interpretation of the dream, however, the mixture is taken as a sign of weakness.
  • g)  2:36–45 The four successive kingdoms in this apocalyptic perspective are the Babylonian (gold), the Median (silver), the Persian (bronze), and the Hellenistic (iron). The last, after Alexander’s death, was divided among his generals (vv. 41–42). Of the kingdoms which emerged from this partitioning, the two that most affected the Jews were the dynasties of the Ptolemies in Egypt and the Seleucids in Syria. They tried in vain, by war and through intermarriage, to restore the unity of Alexander’s empire (v. 43). The stone hewn from the mountain is the kingdom of God awaited by the Jews (vv. 44–45). Compare the image of the stone applied to Jesus in Luke 20:17–18.

Get Rooted. Get Grounded. God is Growing Your Faith. (10.27.20)



Precious Child of Mine,
Many of you are going through a series of situations and circumstances that are causing your faith to grow.  
 
These situations and circumstances were designed to push you past your comfort zone; and to teach you to trust Me like never before. 
 
Then, as many of you step out - in renewed faith - you will see doors open which you thought were impossible.  And as you fully experience My Faithfulness in each situation - in a new, unprecedented  and extraordinary way - it will cause your faith to grow. 

Then I Will push you a bit further. 
I Will push you a bit harder. 
I AM going to take you through experience,
     after experience, designed to grow and
     mature your faith.
 

If you look at your life, many of you will see that you have been going through the same type of faith-producing situation over and over again.  I AM explaining it to you clearly so that you don't become confused, and think that you are under the attack of the enemy.  You are not. 

I Want you to understand that this is My Hand upon you, causing your faith to grow. 

So, for many of you, instead of looking to war in the spirit, yield to Me in the area of trusting Me and stepping out in faith. 

It is My Desire that you become strong, mighty, full of faith, and able to do all things that I place in your hand to do.  Let Me Say that again.
It is My Desire that you become strong, mighty, full of faith, and able to do all things that I place in your hand to do.

Yes, it may seem like I AM asking the impossible of many of you, but I Will enable you with My Supernatural Power.  And you already have My Word, My Son, and My Holy Spirit to assist you and guide you.  Plus, you know Me.  You have walked with Me for some time.  For many of you, a very long time.  And you have been dedicated.  And faithful.  And diligent.  And asking for My Wisdom, My Discernment.  Many of you have been studying My Word.  Standing on My Word.  Speaking My Word.  Walking in Faith and not by sight.  Your new-found faith has activated My Power in your situation.  And watch, more and more you will see the impossible take place, according to My Will.


Things are changing.
And it is time that you begin to expect Me
     to work miracles through you. 
 
It is time for you to realize that My Son really meant what He Said - that you would not only do the same works, the same signs, and the same wonders that He did when He walked My Earth; but that you would do works greater than My Son. 
 
That is why I AM Working so very hard in your life, right now.  Harder than ever.  I AM working to continue to build your faith and to take your faith to the next level,  so that you will be ready to move forward with Me.

I AM Preparing you for greater things. 

So look forward, expectantly, to what I Will be doing in you and through you.  For I AM causing your faith to grow so that you can work with Me to fulfill My Purposes for your life.

Things are changing.
Expect your faith to elevate and go 'next level.' 
Expect to see more of My Miracles. 
Expect great things.
Expect the impossible.
Expect Me.  Your Almighty Father.
 



 Read and Meditate on God's Word
Luke 17:5 - And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith.

Romans 10:17 - Then faith is of hearing, and hearing by the Word of GOD. 

Colossians 2:6-7 - Therefore as you have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him, and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving. 

1 Peter 1:7 - That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: 

1 Peter 2:1-2 - Therefore laying aside all malice and all guile and hypocrisies and envyings, and all evil speakings, desire the sincere milk of the Word, as newborn babes, so that you may grow by it; 

1 Peter 4:12-13 - Beloved, do not be astonished at the fiery trial which is to try you, as though a strange thing happened to you, but rejoice according as you are partakers of Christ's suffering, so that when His glory shall be revealed, you may be glad also with exceeding joy. 

2 Peter 3:18 - But grow in grace and in knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory, both now and to the day of eternity. Amen.

God Has Given You His Authority. Rise Up. Choose to Believe. And Claim The Victory! (10.26.20)

My Precious One,
I Want you to rise up and break off the shackles that bind you.

Do not sit there in torment, crying out to Me to help you, for I Have already given you My Authority. Use what I Have given to you, for it is more than sufficient to gain you the Victory.

Stop allowing things to happening to you,
     and use the Authority that I Have given
     to you to make changes in your life.  

Have I Not said, "No one can enter a strong man's house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man?" You have My Holy Spirit living within you.  And I Have given you My Authority over the enemy and over infirmity. Don't you realize that you are strong in Me? So how is it that some of you have fallen into the role of helpless victim and offer no resistance? How is it that some of you so easily allow the enemy of your souls to plunder your goods? 
 
That is not My Will for you. 


Don't you realize that My Will for you is for Victory, and not defeat? Have I Not said in My Word that I Have given you My Authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; and nothing will harm you? If I have given you My Authority, then wouldn't you think that My Authority that I Have placed in you is greater than any authority of your adversary? Of course, it is! 

So rise up!  Stop listening to his lies!  And do not surrender to him!!  Lift up My Mighty Name and cause change to happen in your life!  

Choose to believe what I Have told you, instead
     of believing the lies of the enemy.
Choose to believe My Truth.
Choose to use My Authority, which I Have
     already given you.

Do not be complacent when the enemy comes to try to make you feel small and helpless. Rebuke him in My Name and with My Authority. Rise up, in My Authority and command him to leave.

Stand on My Word until you have complete victory, for I have given you My Authority; by which you might obtain My Victory in your life.  

Yes, I Have given you My Authority, and I Want you to use it to accomplish My Will.

My Will for you is to defeat the enemy of your souls, that you might walk in victory, walk in peace, walk in prosperity and walk in fullness of joy.

I AM able to deliver.
I AM able to give you complete victory.

Rise up and break off the shackles that bind you and be free in Me.  For I Have given you My Authority.


Exodus 14:14-16 - The LORD shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace. And the LORD said unto Moses, Wherefore criest thou unto me? Speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward: But lift thou up thy rod, and stretch out thine hand over the sea, and divide it: and the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea.

#ScriptureReflection - Psalm 100 (10.25.20)

A Song of Praise for the Lord’s Faithfulness to His People

A Psalm of Thanksgiving.

100 Make a joyful shout to the Lord, all you lands!
Serve the Lord with gladness;
Come before His presence with singing.
Know that the Lord, He is God;
It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves;
We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.

Enter into His gates with thanksgiving,
And into His courts with praise.
Be thankful to Him, and bless His name.
For the Lord is good;
His mercy is everlasting,
And His truth endures to all generations.

You will seek Me First.

Oh My Beloved Little Ones.  What is it, that some of you fear? Do not listen to what others are telling you. Listen only to My Voice, only My Voice. Whether its My Still Small Voice or a passage in My Word or a revelation that comes from quiet meditation time.  Or praise, singing and thanksgiving time.  However My Voice comes to you, listen Child. 

Stand on what you know to be true.

Do you remember the last miracle I Performed in your life? (For there have been so many.)  Remember how you marveled at what was done? You said to yourself - and for some of you, you testified to family, friends and for some, anyone who would listen - you said, "Won't He do it;" or "I can't believe Jesus did that;" or "Look at GOD;" or "He made a way out of no way."   You couldn't stop praising, testifying and giving Me My Glory, My Honor and My Praise.


And that was then.
And I Did, did not I?
My Child, I Will do it again.

I take what My Children see as impossible, and make it possible. I have been doing that since I formed this earth.  So, why.  Why.  Why do some of you wonder if I Am able to provide?
 
Oh, My Child, I Say unto you - this day - to please take time to reflect upon the blessings of the past, and do not worry.

I Have spoken unto the storms, and
     commanded them to cease!
That storm you are going through is over.
That storm shall be no more.
Right now!

I Am pouring forth upon you a sweet and gentle rain.
It shall renew, strengthen, and breathe new life into you.

Embrace what I Am doing.
Do not resist.

I Need you to trust Me until the end.
I Will provide.
Haven’t I ALWAYS provided for you?

Trust Me, the storm will end.
Trust Me.
I Love You.
Before you were you, in your mother's womb,
     I Loved you.
You are My Child.
I Love you.
Trust Me.

Trust.

Isaiah 43:2 - When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. 

John 14:18 - I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you. 

Psalm 9:10 - And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.

Psalm 56:3-4 - Even when I am afraid, I still trust you. I praise the word of GOD. I trust God. I am not afraid. What can mere flesh and blood do to me?


2 Corinthians 4:16-17 - That is why we are not discouraged. Though outwardly we are wearing out, inwardly we are renewed day by day. Our suffering is light and temporary and is producing for us an eternal glory that is greater than anything we can imagine.

#ScriptureReflection - Proverbs 3:3-33 (10.23.20)

Never let loyalty and kindness leave you!
    Tie them around your neck as a reminder.
    Write them deep within your heart.
Then you will find favor with both God and people,
    and you will earn a good reputation.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart;
    do not depend on your own understanding.
Seek his will in all you do,
    and he will show you which path to take.

Don’t be impressed with your own wisdom.
    Instead, fear the Lord and turn away from evil.
Then you will have healing for your body
    and strength for your bones.

Honor the Lord with your wealth
    and with the best part of everything you produce.
10 Then he will fill your barns with grain,
    and your vats will overflow with good wine.

11 My child, don’t reject the Lord’s discipline,
    and don’t be upset when he corrects you.
12 For the Lord corrects those he loves,
    just as a father corrects a child in whom he delights.

13 Joyful is the person who finds wisdom,
    the one who gains understanding.
14 For wisdom is more profitable than silver,
    and her wages are better than gold.
15 Wisdom is more precious than rubies;
    nothing you desire can compare with her.
16 She offers you long life in her right hand,
    and riches and honor in her left.
17 She will guide you down delightful paths;
    all her ways are satisfying.
18 Wisdom is a tree of life to those who embrace her;
    happy are those who hold her tightly.

19 By wisdom the Lord founded the earth;
    by understanding he created the heavens.
20 By his knowledge the deep fountains of the earth burst forth,
    and the dew settles beneath the night sky.

21 My child, don’t lose sight of common sense and discernment.
    Hang on to them,
22 for they will refresh your soul.
    They are like jewels on a necklace.
23 They keep you safe on your way,
    and your feet will not stumble.
24 You can go to bed without fear;
    you will lie down and sleep soundly.
25 You need not be afraid of sudden disaster
    or the destruction that comes upon the wicked,
26 for the Lord is your security.
    He will keep your foot from being caught in a trap.

27 Do not withhold good from those who deserve it
    when it’s in your power to help them.
28 If you can help your neighbor now, don’t say,
    “Come back tomorrow, and then I’ll help you.”

29 Don’t plot harm against your neighbor,
    for those who live nearby trust you.
30 Don’t pick a fight without reason,
    when no one has done you harm.

31 Don’t envy violent people
    or copy their ways.
32 Such wicked people are detestable to the Lord,
    but he offers his friendship to the godly.

33 The Lord curses the house of the wicked,
    but he blesses the home of the upright.

Trust in God to the End... Trust God. Trust God. (10.22.20)

 



My Child,
Trust in Me.... to the end. 
Trust in Me.  To the end.
Trust in Me.
To the e-n-d.
 
Be steadfast.
Be ready to go on.
Trusting to the last hour. 

You must know that I Am able to provide, even when you cannot see. 

Be faithful, like My Servant Abraham.  Climb your 'hill of sacrifice,' trusting in Me - to the very last moment - before you see My Deliverance. This 'final test' will come to all who walk by faith.  You must rely on Me, and Me, alone. Look to no other hand.  Look to no other help.  Look to no other for advice.  Look to no other for confirmation, nor in an attempt to justify or "lobby" for support. 
 
Trust in Me. 
Trust in My Word.
NOT in what you see.

Trust and fear not. 

Know that I Am able to do, what I Promised I Would do.  I Need you to trust in Me, until the end.  I Will provide for you.

What is it you fear? 

Why do you think that I Won't do what I Say I Will do? Do not listen to what others are telling you. Listen only to My Voice.  My Still Small Voice.  My Consistent Voice.  My Loving, Fatherly Voice.  And know that I Am able. 

Stand on what you know to be true.  Remember the last miracle I Performed in your life?  (There have been so many.  Have you been paying attention?)  Do you recall how you marveled at what I Did? You were so amazed that I Could do - and did do - what others said could not be done.  Nevertheless, I did.  I Did do it.  I Took what you saw as impossible, and made it possible. 

And I Will do it again. 

Stand on what you know to be true.
Stand on what you know to be true.
Stand on what you know to be true.
Right now.
 
So, why do some of you wonder now, if I Am able to provide? 
Trust in Me until the end. 

Trust Me.
Trust Me.
Trust Me.
Right now.

I Love you, My Child.
Trust Me.
Right now.

 

 
 
Read and Meditate on God's Word
Numbers 11:23 - And the LORD said unto Moses, Is the LORD'S hand waxed short? thou shalt see now whether my word shall come to pass unto thee or not. 
 
Psalm 37:3-5 - Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed. Delight thyself also in the LORD, and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him, and he shall bring it to pass.

Mark 10:27 - And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.

Hebrews 11:6 - But without faith, it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

Romans 4:20 - He staggered not at the promise of GOD through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to GOD; 



There is nothing you will face today
     that GOD cannot bring you through. 
So, let your faith be bigger than your fears.

#ScriptureReflection - 1 Corinthians 13:1-13 (10.21.20)

 If I speak in human and angelic tongues but do not have love, I am a resounding gong or a clashing cymbal. And if I have the gift of prophecy and comprehend all mysteries and all knowledge; If I give away everything I own, and if I hand my body over so that I may boast but do not have love, I gain nothing.

4 Love is patient, love is kind. It is not jealous, is not pompous, it is not inflated, it is not rude, it does not seek its own interests, it is not quick-tempered, it does not brood over injury, it does not rejoice over wrongdoing but rejoices with the truth. 

It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

8 Love never fails. If there are prophecies, they will be brought to nothing; if tongues, they will cease; if knowledge, it will be brought to nothing.

For we know partially and we prophesy partially, 10 but when the perfect comes,the partial will pass away.

11 When I was a child, I used to talk as a child, think as a child, reason as a child; when I became a man, I put aside childish things. 12 At present we see indistinctly, as in a mirror, but then face to face. At present I know partially; then I shall know fully, as I am fully known. 


13
So faith, hope, love remain, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

CELEBRATE!!! For A Mighty Change Has Come.... (10.20.20)



My Child,
A time of great and mighty change is upon you. 

Do not have fear.
Be at peace.

This is My Hand that is moving you.
This is My Hand that is guiding you.
And this is My Will for you.

I Shall bring you forth and set your feet upon new ground. 

Do not look back, for there is nothing there for you, but the past.

And the past is not your future.

No longer mourn over it.
Lift your head up.
Move forward.
And never lose hope. 

The place that I Have prepared for you is a place of victory.  A place of peace.  A place of joy.  A place of life.  Remember, that I Sent My Son that you might have life, life everlasting, and that it might be full and abundant.  
 
Rejoice, and move forward.
And do not fear what is coming.
For I Have wonderful and marvelous things planned for you.
Now is your time to walk forward and claim what I have prepared for you.

And My child, you do not have to wait until the Victory is fully accomplished before you rejoice and praise Me.  
 
I AM with you.
I AM your Victory.
I AM your substance. 

Do not wait until you come out of the valley to give Me Praise. I AM walking with you in the journey. I AM ALWAYS walking with you.  ALWAYS.  I AM with you right now. Yes, this very moment, I AM walking beside you.

So, celebrate My Presence.
Celebrate My Nearness.
Celebrate My Love for you.
Celebrate My Mighty Change in your life.
And celebrate YOUR VICTORY in My Mighty Change.   

I Love You.
GO FORTH.
Go. Go. Go. Go. Right now....
Go.  Celebrate.  Claim My Victory!
