Beloved,
The problems you are facing at this time are temporary and not eternal.
Do not respond to your trials and temptations, as though they are forever.
I speak to those of you who feel like the heavens are shut, and as much as you cry out for breakthrough it doesn't come. I tell you, just as Hezekiah’s prayer and tears moved Me to answer him, so have your prayers touched My heart.
I see the difficulties that you face. I have not left you nor forsaken you. My ears are not deaf. Nor is My arm shortened, that I cannot deliver you from the hand of the evil one. Erase all doubts and unbelief from your mind, and come boldly before My throne.
It’s time for you to see your difficulties as opportunities to overcome the flesh, to resist the devil, and to be molded to be more like Me. The things that you are currently facing will produce My nature and character in you; if you yield to the truth of My Word and trust Me.
Exercise your faith, do not become weary and do not give up; boldly press your way through.
Push beyond previous spiritual boundaries and
limitations and do not stop seeking My face.
Stand strong in the face of adversity and trials,
for you will come through this time with
greater strength and resolve than you thought possible, if you only believe in Who I Am,
and come boldly before My throne.
Beloved, what you’re going through won’t last always.
Therefore, rise up in the Spirit and worship Me with all your heart.
Remove all restraints, lay aside all distractions,
and come into My presence for a time of restoration.
Do not procrastinate.
You need a time of rejuvenation for your soul.
So, come without restraint or restriction, come boldly before My Throne of grace for the help you need, and receive a refreshing of My Spirit.
Come now, and come boldly,
I Am waiting to speak to you.

Psalm 42:5 - Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted in me? hope thou in GOD: for I shall yet praise him for the help of his countenance.
Isaiah 38:4-5 - Then came the word of the LORD to Isaiah, saying, Go, and say to Hezekiah, Thus saith the LORD, the GOD of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will add unto thy days fifteen years.
Isaiah 59:1 - Behold, the LORD'S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear:
Lamentations 3:19-23 - Remembering mine affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the gall. My soul hath them still in remembrance, and is humbled in me. This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope. It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.
2 Corinthians 4:17-18 - For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory, while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.
Hebrews 4:15-16 - For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

God is Always Faithful (8.30.16)
Faith Believers,
One aspect of GOD’s character is faithfulness.
One Word is not enough to describe GOD.
GOD is many, many things, and faithful is just one of them.
As sinful, fallen people, we may doubt His faithfulness; or not fully trust it at times. We experience hard times like the loss of a job, a broken marriage, or financial struggle; and we began to question things. However, GOD is always faithful.
Here are three ways we can better understand how GOD is always faithful:
1. His faithfulness is constant, like the moon in the sky.

Here are three ways we can better understand how GOD is always faithful:
1. His faithfulness is constant, like the moon in the sky.
It shall be established forever like the moon, and the witness in the sky is faithful. - Psalm 89:372. GOD’s faithfulness makes it possible to trust Him with the details.
GOD has placed a constant reminder of His faithfulness in the sky. It may seem strange to think of the moon as a reminder of faithfulness, but remember that GOD created this good world for us to live in and enjoy.
Did you know that the moon stabilizes the rotation of the earth? All of our being depends on GOD’s intricate design! It is over time that we begin to realize that He can be trusted to be who He says He is.
His faithfulness can be known through His creation. Imagine all the detail that went into making our world! Continue to look at the moon as an example of who GOD is, how He loves us, and the way He has made the world for us to live in.
I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with My eye on you. - Psalm 32:83. GOD is faithful to provide.
Once we begin to trust GOD’s faithfulness, to know that GOD is who He says He is, and that He will do what He says He will do; we can begin to realize that He also has a very detailed and intimate interest in each of us.
Not only does GOD give us creation for us to enjoy, but He is also aware of every detail in our lives, and we can trust His faithfulness with details. He watches over us, teaches us, guides us, and cares for us as only He can.
Our lives are as important to Him as His creation, and we can trust in His faithfulness!
He found him in a desert land and in the howling waste of a wilderness; He encircled him, He cared for him, He guarded him as the pupil of His eye. Like an eagle that stirs up its nest and hovers over its young, He spread His wings and caught them, He carried them on His pinions. The Lord alone guided him… - Deuteronomy 32:10-11
These verses refer to how GOD led Israel through the desert and provided for them.
Provisions are another example of how GOD always works on our behalf, even in ways we don’t realize!
He works in the visible and invisible world.
He knows how fragile we are, and He is aware
that we cannot make it on our own.
We are surrounded by His faithfulness, and we would not exist without Him.
Praise His holy name!

Our Father will Lift You Up & Place Your Feet on Solid Rock. Call on Him.... (8.29.16)
My Child,
Do you remember your earlier days? When you were as bold as a lion and stood your ground as you confessed My Name? For it was the power of GOD for salvation to those who believed? There was a time when there was a rushing, an anticipation to spend time with Me, whether it was reading My Word or in prayer.
Do you remember the times when you were lost in My presence, while you worshiped, soaked, or just rested in the shadow of My Wings? As you did this, your heart was set on seeking My Face. In those days, you had the faith to step out of the boat and to walk on water, because your eyes were fixed on Me - The Author, and Finisher, of your faith.
You knew, and believed, with childlike faith that you could do all things through My Son, Jesus Christ, who strengthened you. That made you more than a conqueror in Me. But then, the wind and the waves began to pick up. You began to look at the storms and the circumstances of life, instead of keeping your eyes on Me; and you began to sink.
However, know this My beloved, I have not left you.
I AM still holding your hand.
Though you may be underneath the surface of life's waters
and feel alone, I Am the same GOD you knew before.
I Am the same yesterday, today, and forever.
I never change. Call out to Me!
My child, if you will lift your hands in praise, and cry out to Me with prayer and thanksgiving, I will lift you up and place your feet upon the solid rock. In this world, you are going to have many tribulations, but do not fear; I have overcome this world. If you will, once again, seek Me with all your heart - you shall find Me.
You are never out of My sight, nor are you
ever too far down that I cannot reach
down and save you.
Now, do you remember?
Read and Meditate on His Word

Trust, Love, Be Patient, and Stand on God's Word (8.28.16)
My Child,
For a while now, you’ve believed Me and the things I promised you. You’ve wanted to believe, and you did; however, the promises are taking longer than you expected. You must remember that with Me, one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years is one day. Therefore, you and I see time differently. My promises will come to pass My child because I spoke it.
Be patient, and stand on My Word.
Though your vision tarries, wait for it.
If you give up hope now, you will have walked away from your vision and Me. I want you to wait for Me to fulfill My Word in your life. Do not allow anything to steal your hope, or talk you into giving up on your vision. Just because others gave up on their dreams, that does not mean you should do the same.
Take a stand and continue to believe in My Word
and what I have promised you; for
I desire your trust and love more than anything.

God's Wisdom, Direction & True Spiritual Flow..... (8.26.16)
My Child,
In your questions about how to proceed,
wait until you have a definitive answer.
You must silence your frustration and be at peace,
so that you can hear My still small voice.
If you need wisdom, ask, and then wait for an answer.
It is one thing to ask, and another thing to be patient and listen; so that you can receive. Any doubt about your direction, or responses to circumstances, will produce double-mindedness; and lead you away from the right path.
It is My desire to guide your steps and keep you in a Spiritual Flow. Therefore, when you ask of Me, stay in My presence and listen; for I will reveal to you the things you need to know, that will bless you on your journey. I will give you wisdom and direction, with regard to your success. I know all your hopes and dreams, so listen to Me and let Me lead you.
My child, it is in your best interest to stop worrying and fretting; and start putting your trust in Me. Release all unto Me and I will show you the way, I will be with you every step of your journey. Be sensitive to My leading and direction. Do not rely on your own thoughts about how to work things out, just have faith in Who I Am.
Have faith in My divine plans for your life,
for I know what is best for you, therefore,
listen and let Me lead you.
Now, precious one, position yourself in My presence..... and let Me lead you.
I will give you divine directions, for I Am the solution to each and every problem that comes your way. Come to Me and surrender your thoughts, your plans and ideas of what it should be; or how it should be to Me. If you don’t yield all to Me, you will block true wisdom from flowing in your life and hinder the plans I have for you.
So, come now and enter into My presence with the innocence and openness of a child.
Come in faith.
Listen, let Me lead, and
I will keep you on the right path.

My Child,
Yes, I closed that door;

Trust that I Am moving on your behalf, and that soon you will see a new door opening. I Am leading you to a better place, which will bring you closer to Me. I will accomplish all that I began in you.
Now, step away from the situation you're facing and look up, there’s something I want to show you.
I want to show you the right direction.
I want you to see that it’s filled with great possibilities,
and the way is completely unhindered.
Do not be surprised at the promotion which is coming.
Oh, but it will NOT be in the way that you’re thinking.
Just know that I will not disappoint you,
and you will bring glory to My Name.
So, will you trust My plans and know that I have a future and a hope for you?
Child, will you trust that My plans are to bless you and fulfill your hearts’ desires?
Will you trust and believe in My Word, and know that it’s Yes and Amen?

Say "Nevertheless" & Stand Strong in God's Name (8.24.16)
My Child,
I know things aren’t exactly where you want them to be right now, and you haven’t received all that you have been promised. You’re thinking “Why should I continue down this path, things were better when I was living in the world." You don’t truly believe that, because if you did you wouldn't have surrendered your life to Me. Stop allowing the enemy to invade your spirit with negative and harmful memories of your past. Stop running and tell the enemy NEVERTHELESS, though He me, yet will I trust Him.
Recognize WHO I AM, and know that the only power the enemy has over you is the power that you give him. I say to you again this day, stop running from your enemy. The enemy is not your lord, he has never provided for you. Even when you were living a life pleasing to him, it was I who watched over you. It was I who protected you. Stand up and tell the enemy “SO WHAT” my circumstances aren’t where I need them to be, NEVERTHELESS, I am not ashamed, for I know who holds my future, and I will endure hardships as a good soldier in the Lord’s Army.
Say NEVERTHELESS to the battle that rages around you. Stand up in My Name and face your enemy. Rebuke the enemy in the My Name and command him to leave your life, your house, your job, your family and all that pertains to you. Stand strong in My Name and raise your shield as you block all of the enemy’s attacks. I've called you to be My mighty warrior, so be encouraged this day and stand strong in the Lord.
I AM JEHOVAH JIREH, and I will provide. I AM JEHOVAH SHALOM, and I will bring peace in the midst of the battle. Rebuke the enemy because THIS BATTLE HAS BEEN WON!

Arise! Arise Right Now... Arise Now & Take Authority! Arise!!!! (8.23.16)
And when Jesus departed thence, two blind men followed him, crying, and saying, Thou Son of David, have mercy on us. And when he was come into the house, the blind men came to him: and Jesus saith unto them, Believe ye that I am able to do this? They said unto him, Yea, Lord. Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you. - Matthew 9:27-29
__________
Faith Believers,
DO YOU BELIEVE HE IS ABLE TO DO THE SAME FOR YOU?
What is the biggest hindrance in our lives that keeps us from living the Supernatural life that GOD desires for us to live… DOUBT AND UNBELIEF!
What keeps faith from operating in our lives? It's our wavering in the Lord. James 1: 6-7 tells us that we must operate in faith, with no wavering, no hesitating, no doubting, and no unbelief. A person who wavers, hesitates, doubts, or has unbelief is like a wave out at sea that is tossed to and fro by the wind. It goes on to say, "Does such a person believe that he will receive anything from the Lord?" If you can't fully trust the Lord, don't expect to receive what you’ve asked for.
DOUBT AND UNBELIEF are our greatest enemies to a victorious life! Take your burdens to the Lord and leave it in His hands. If the enemy tries (and most times, he will) to convince you to pick your burdens back up, immediately repent of such a thought, and give your burdens back to the Lord. Leave them there and trust Him to fight your battle.
Don't doubt Him! He doesn't need your help! He simply wants you to Trust Him. Trust Him to fight and win this battle for you. You must take your thoughts captive and turn them around to a positive statement of trust in the Lord GOD. You must conquer DOUBT AND UNBELIEF. This trial you are going through is only your training ground, it is not to destroy you, but to strengthen you. TRUST HIM!

~ And The Lord said ~
My Child,
How can you doubt Me?
How can you not trust in My Words?
How can you doubt that I Am your source, your supply?
How can you not believe in divine healing?
How can you not think all is well?
All is well; All is well.
Trust Me and be not afraid. Be not afraid. You know that I will keep you. Have I ever failed you? Have I not cared for you and your family? Have I not kept you strong? I Am here for you, do not doubt My Word. I told you that I would never leave you. Do not doubt Me, trust in Me.

Faith Believers,
Take the Authority over the enemy, in the Name of Jesus Christ!
Command things to line up according to GOD's plan!
Do not give in to the devil in any area of your life!
Fill yourself up to overflow with the Word of GOD.
Your flesh and your “reasoning” must die!
Remember, you cannot mix faith and trust
with doubt and unbelief.
Like oil and water, they do not mix!!!
If doubt has a place in your life, faith cannot operate.
Faith cannot operate with reasoning.
Faith operates with complete trust in GOD and Who He Is!
Faith is believing when common sense tells you not to.
You must believe!
It's time that we rise up and take our rightful place as a child of GOD and say 'I will trust Him, and will not doubt! We need to declare these statements out loud, daily. We need to declare them as often as we can!!!! Like taking medicine, you may need to repeat them once every four hours, or as needed.
You must trust him!
Remember the devil was defeated when Christ died for us,
and rose on the third day.
he can only operate when we let him!
Arise! Arise right now above the things which have held you captive!
Arise! Arise now, take authority and be victorious in Jesus over all the enemies of your soul!
Step on DOUBT AND UNBELIEF.
Declare and decree that you will trust GOD,
regardless if your back is against the wall!!
I ask you again, “DO YOU BELIEVE HE IS ABLE
TO DO THE SAME FOR YOU?”
Then according to your faith be it unto you.
Thank God for what you have,
Trust God for what you need.

Matthew 8:13 - And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; and as thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in the selfsame hour.
Mark 9:23-24 - Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth. And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.
Mark 10:51-52 - And Jesus answered and said unto him, What wilt thou that I should do unto thee? The blind man said unto him, Lord, that I might receive my sight. And Jesus said unto him, Go thy way; thy faith hath made thee whole. And immediately he received his sight, and followed Jesus in the way.

Faith Believers,
DO YOU BELIEVE HE IS ABLE TO DO THE SAME FOR YOU?
What is the biggest hindrance in our lives that keeps us from living the Supernatural life that GOD desires for us to live… DOUBT AND UNBELIEF!
What keeps faith from operating in our lives? It's our wavering in the Lord. James 1: 6-7 tells us that we must operate in faith, with no wavering, no hesitating, no doubting, and no unbelief. A person who wavers, hesitates, doubts, or has unbelief is like a wave out at sea that is tossed to and fro by the wind. It goes on to say, "Does such a person believe that he will receive anything from the Lord?" If you can't fully trust the Lord, don't expect to receive what you’ve asked for.
DOUBT AND UNBELIEF are our greatest enemies to a victorious life! Take your burdens to the Lord and leave it in His hands. If the enemy tries (and most times, he will) to convince you to pick your burdens back up, immediately repent of such a thought, and give your burdens back to the Lord. Leave them there and trust Him to fight your battle.
Don't doubt Him! He doesn't need your help! He simply wants you to Trust Him. Trust Him to fight and win this battle for you. You must take your thoughts captive and turn them around to a positive statement of trust in the Lord GOD. You must conquer DOUBT AND UNBELIEF.

Christ Wants (and Needs) to Work in You and Through You (8.22.16)
I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father - John 14:12
Faith Believers,
If you are one of the "anyone-who-has-faith-in-me persons" of whom Jesus spoke, then you need to be on the lookout for places where Christ wants and needs to work. Is there a child who needs to be spiritually formed, a friend who needs encouragement, or a neighbor who needs Christ? If you pray, Christ will work!
Are there spiritual leaders who need to be uplifted, fellow believers who need empowerment, or a church that needs to be revived? If you pray, Christ will work!
Do you know of an anxious person who needs peace, a lonely person who needs befriending, a stranger who needs to be invited in, or a hungry person who needs to be fed? If you intercede, Christ will work!!
Christ will work in you and through you.
You will be doing the kinds of things that Christ did.
You will be doing them in His power.
You will be co-laboring with GOD.
With this promise, Christ is placing the powers of heaven at your disposal.
What a huge and important responsibility!
What an awesome privilege!
- Marilyn
~ Prayer ~
Gracious Holy Spirit,
I repent of my selfishness that keeps me from exercising
the gifts You have given to me, for the sake of others.
There are those who could use encouragement and uplifting and others who are struggling and need to be helped through a difficult time. Yet, I keep a safe distance at arm’s length, because I might get sucked in to more than I think I can handle. Some people and much of life are messy and complicated, yet Jesus would step into the midst of the mess and reach out His hand to heal. May the heart of Christ be evident in me today as I listen for Your kingdom instructions. Help me to lean into the mess, unafraid to be the hands and feet of the One who extended His hand to me! Amen

Let Nothing Destroy Your Faith, Hope or Confidence (8.21.16)
My Child,
The enemy is at work to undermine the strength of your position, through subtle distractions. I see many of My Children consumed with things they have no control over. Exercise faith and trust Me with those issues; do not be afraid of his attacks.
If you need wisdom, all you have to do is ask of Me.
I will give wisdom to everyone, who asks in faith.
Refuse to allow the issues of life to have control over you.
Do not give in to anything that has the potential
to destroy your faith, hope, or confidence.
Stand strong and know that I will direct your steps.
I Am the Lord your God and I WILL provide
everything that you need, to accomplish
what I have given you to do.
Let nothing interrupt your flow in the Spirit.
Exercise your faith and do not be afraid.
Read and Meditate on His Word
Hebrews 10:23 - Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)
James 1:5-6 - If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of GOD, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that watereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
James 2:17-18 - Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works.

Ordained for Victory (8.18.16)
Beloved,
You already have the victory, so do not
worry about the battle that rages around you.
If you remember, spiritual battles raged around Me as I went about My Father’s business. The battles happened because of Who I Am. I pushed back the kingdom of darkness, and refused to allow the enemy to win; and you must do the same.
A spiritual battle is what you’re going through right now. The enemy is pushing back because of the work you’re doing, and he doesn’t like to lose. he tried it with Me, so don’t be surprised at his attacks against you. I never promised you things would always be easy. In fact, I said that in this world, there would be times of tribulation and adversity. However, do not be afraid of these things, for I overcame them, and so shall you.
I have given you My work to do and have empowered you to complete it successfully. You are victorious, and an overcomer through Me; for I gave my life for you when I died on the Cross. Therefore, do not fear the battle. I Am right beside you.
My glory will be worked in each of your circumstances
as you go forth in obedience to My Word, because you were ordained for victory.
Read and Meditate on My Word
Psalm 118:6 - The LORD is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me?
John 15:16 - Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.
John 16:33 - These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world
1 Peter 4:12-13 - Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.

Your Season of Elevation Begins Right Now. Rise Up, Overcome & Be Victorious!!! (8.17.16)
My Child,
Right now is the beginning of a season of elevation,
therefore you need to set your sights on higher ground.
So free yourself of the things that keep you preoccupied with negativity, and become adamant about making a change for the Lord. Refuse to allow grumbling, complaining and self-pity to inhabit your spiritual atmosphere; and live your life by Every Word that I have spoken.
I know challenges will come; however, I have given you the ability
to rise up, overcome, and be victorious in every situation.
All you have to do is stay focused on Me, and you will become strong and unwavering during your trials. Keep your eyes on Me, and do not allow anything unrighteous to rule your thoughts, emotions or behavior. Allow My presence and power to permeate your atmosphere.
Beloved, I have chosen you, called you by your name, and you belong to Me. I Am calling you to come closer to Me, and distance yourself from the things of this world.
Stay focused on My Spirit and stand on My Word.
Once you release everything to Me, then
the blessings I have for you will begin to flow.
I will make a way where there seem to be no way.
Seek first My Kingdom, the Kingdom of GOD,
and everything else will fall into place.

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
Philippians 4:8 - Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things

Love.... (8.15.16)
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. - 1 Corinthians 13:4-8
Faith Believers,
This scripture reveals to us what it looks like to love "GOD’s way." Tests are essential in life to measure one’s level of growth. Just as a student needs to take tests to measure their level of understanding; likewise, we will encounter situations, or people, for the purpose of measuring whether we are truly growing in the love of GOD.
As we reflect on 1 Corinthians 13:4-8, we should ask ourselves honestly:
It’s important to remember that love is a fruit of the Spirit; it’s not something we can manufacture on our own. We cannot love people GOD’s way, in our own ability. Love grows as we yield to the Holy Spirit on a daily basis. It’s GOD's fruit, so we need Him to produce it in our lives.
~ Prayer ~
Lord,
Help me to yield to You everyday
in fellowship and communion,
so that the fruit of love can be
evident and abound in my life.
Amen
Today's Challenge: Are there people around you that are difficult to love? Make up your mind with the help of the Holy Spirit to practically show them GOD’s love the next time you see them. Put this verse up somewhere where you can see it and pray it for a week: May the Lord make your love increase and overflow for each other and for everyone else, just as ours does for you - 1 Thessalonians 3:12

Put this verse up somewhere where you can see it and pray it for a week: May the Lord make your love increase and overflow for each other and for everyone else, just as ours does for you - 1 Thessalonians 3:12

Be Prepared & Do Not Stop; for God is Making Moves in Your Life... Your Deliverance Has Come!! (8.14.16)
My Child,
I desire to move in your life today,
so be prepared.
Mountains that once stood in your way will be made flat.
Did I not say I would do this?
I Am He who promised that when you tell the mountain to be cast into the sea, it shall be so. The things you learned in your "wilderness experience" changed, shaped and molded you into a new person.
Now, shake the dust off your feet and straighten your shoulders,
for I Am about to make a move in your life.
Be prepared, for your season is here.
It will move suddenly before your very eyes,
so be prepared to move.
I Am closing the doors on your season of tears and hardships,
and I Am opening new windows of opportunity for you.
Today, make haste, and prepare yourself, for I will not delay.
Today is a day to reap the fruits of your prayers,
the tears you’ve sown, and faith in My Word.
My child, go forward with joy, singing praises to My Name,
for your deliverance has come.
Now, prepare yourself and do not stop,
for your deliverance has come.
Your deliverance has come.
Read and Meditate on His Word:
Deuteronomy 8:2 - And thou shalt remember all the way which the LORD thy GOD led thee these forty years in the wilderness, to humble thee, and to prove thee, to know what was in thine heart, whether thou wouldest keep his commandments, or not.
2 Chronicles 29:36 - And Hezekiah rejoiced, and all the people, that GOD had prepared the people: for the thing was done suddenly.
Psalm 52:9 - I will praise thee forever, because thou hast done it: and I will wait on thy name; for it is good before thy saints.

Martha or Mary? Spend Less Time "Being Busy" and More Time Listening (8.12.16)
Faith Believers,
It is impossible to do what the Lord desires
unless we take time to listen to Him.
We can only do this by being still,
and ceasing our busy activity-filled lives.
Sometimes all GOD wants is to speak Words of love and affirmation. Many times He may require nothing of you but to sit and enjoy His company. However, it is a very clear command from GOD that we are to listen to His Son: Then a cloud appeared and enveloped them, and a voice came from the cloud: ‘This is My Son, whom I love. Listen to Him!’ - Mark 9:7. It is implied that listening involves obeying. To truly hear from GOD, we should be obedient to what He says: Do not merely listen to the Word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. - James 1:22.
The Word of GOD says, My sheep listen to My voice; I know them, and they follow Me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of My hand - John 10:27-28. Your family, friends, co-workers, even strangers are watching how you live your life. Are they learning from you the lifestyle of Martha or Mary? …Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her - Luke 10:42.
~ Prayer ~
Lord Jesus,
I have so much in common with Martha,
which is not such a bad thing!
Yet, I do long to learn a lesson from her sister,
who spent her time sitting at Your feet,
simply learning and adoring!
Out of the overflow of her devotion, she lived her life.
Help me to be still, and to keep my eyes fixed upon
Your blessed face; so that I will not miss You
in the midst of my busy life!
Draw me close, Jesus, so that those who follow after me
will learn to know that You are GOD!
Amen

The Father has Released Healing Waters into Your Life. Let God Restore Your Weary Soul. (8.11.16)
My Child,
I have released healing waters into your life.
They’re flowing down into every crevice
and every broken area of your life.
My healing waters are filling you with My Light and My Peace. In these waters, you will find the stillness, the calmness and the restfulness that you long for, in Me. I Am the Living Water that is touching you deeply, and making you whole. Let My Healing Water flow, and restore your weary soul.
Rest in Me. Let Me restore your weary soul.
Allow Me to restore you, all your lost dreams,
and your lost hope.
Let Me restore the lost hope that faded during the times you felt like I was holding you by the tips of your fingers. I assure you, I’ve always held you secure in My Arms. Don’t be alarmed by the things that seem out of control, because you gave Me control to handle all that concerns you. I Am holding you steady and secure.
Allow the fullness of My Spirit to flow through your life.
Feel My power, feel My healing waters rising within you now and bringing newness of life. My healing waters will supply all the Power you need to walk in Victory, Wholeness and Joy.
Child, feel My healing waters flow in you, as I command.
Healing waters flow right now.

Psalm 23
The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.

Continue to Walk by Faith (8.10.16)
Beloved,
I see that you are becoming a little weary, and I want to give you the strength you need to continue to walk by faith and not by sight - so that you will be able to reach your destiny. I want you to lean upon Me instead of trying to fight your own way through this battle. Yes, lean on Me, and allow the Word of the Lord to be your strength, for My Word will abide forever.
Whenever I ask you to walk with Me, I will strengthen you to do so. I will go before you to make the crooked places straight and to plant My Word as the seed for what is to come. When I walk with you through the dark valleys of life, I will guide you with My Light, so you will know that you are on the right path. My Goodness and Mercy will follow you, to remind you about overcoming your past, and no weapon formed against you shall prosper. So when all is said and done, I will bring you out into a better place.
Therefore, My Child, whenever you find yourself feeling weary on your journey, whenever you become anxious about where you are and what to do next - remember My Word to you this day. Then, lift your eyes up to the hills from whence comes your help, and go back to My Word. For My Word will bring healing and restoration to revive you again.
I assure you, once you start meditating on My Word, you will find the answer you need, and you will be able to continue your walk in faith.

Faith Believers,

That the peace of GOD will flood your soul,

will come to pass.

Call Out to God, Trust Him & Victory will be Yours (8.9.16)
My Child,
First, I want you to know there really are demonic forces and principalities at work in the world.
Second, I want you to remember and know that My Son, Jesus is still Lord of every circumstance.
Finally, I want you to resist this attack, get on your knees and admit that you need My Help.
Call out to Me as the Prophet Isaiah did.
If you will do these things, Victory will be yours and the enemy will flee from your presence.
2 Timothy 4:18 - The Lord will rescue me from every evil attack and will bring me safely to his heavenly kingdom. To him be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

Faith Believers, Pray with me: ~ Prayer ~
Because I dwell in the secret place of the Most High,
I shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress,
He is My GOD, in Him will I trust.
GOD has delivered me from the snare of the fowler and from the perilous pestilence. He has covered me with His feathers and under His wings I have taken refuge. The Father's Truth has become my shield and my buckler.
I will not be afraid of the terror by night,
nor the arrow that flies by day.
Nor the pestilence that walks in darkness,
nor the destruction that lays wait at noonday.
A thousand may fall at my side and ten thousand at my right hand, but none of this shall come near me. Only with my eyes will I look and see the reward of the wicked.
Because I have made the Lord my refuge, even the Most High my dwelling place, no evil will come near me. Neither shall any plague come near my dwelling place.
For He has given His angels charge over me to keep me in all my ways. They will lift me up in their hands so I won't strike my foot against a stone. I will tread upon the lion and the cobra. The young lion and the serpent have been trampled under my feet.
Because I love the Lord He will deliver me.
He will set me on high because I know His Name.
When I call upon Him, He will answer me.
He will be with me when I am in trouble,
He will deliver me and honor me.
He has promised to satisfy me
with long life and to show me His salvation.
AMEN!

Embrace This New Day, Trust God & Claim Victory!! (8.8.16)
My Child,
Start looking for the hidden blessings that are all around you.
Open your eyes to the wonders of My Hands upon your life.
Embrace this new day and learn that it is “OK” for you to trust Me.
I have begun a new thing in you, and I want you to trust Me. I want you to trust Me in your loneliest moments, those moments when others have deserted you. Trust Me when the fear of the unknown is lingering around, for I have already provided for you. Say you trust Me with where you are at this very moment, because I know your beginning and end.
Trust and believe that I Am not a GOD of suffering,
but a GOD of love and compassion, who cares for you.
Renew your time in prayer and this time when you pray,
I want you to pray with expectation.
Pray and expect to receive.
Pray and release My Words, not your words,
over your life; and watch the enemy withdraw.
This is not the time nor the season to be timid in prayer.
It is time to speak forth what I have spoken to you
and to see the Truth prevail.
It is time to proclaim aloud what I Am doing in your life.
The time is now. Wait no longer.
Wake up from your place of slumber and claim the victory!
Read and Meditate on His Word
Psalm 73:28 - But it is good for me to draw near to GOD: I have put my trust in the Lord GOD, that I may declare all thy works.

Clear Your Mind, Seek God for Wisdom & Guidance, Keep Moving Forward & Press On (8.7.16)
My Child,
I know you’ve dealt with difficulties in the past days,
but you must press on.
Clear your mind of all negativity and disappointments,
and keep moving forward.
Do not allow the forces of darkness to take you off course. Be strong and steadfast. Keep your mind on the things that are above. Deliberately think about things that will encourage you and keep your hope alive. This is a choice, and it takes discipline; however, the more you keep your thoughts on Me; the more doors will open for good things to happen in your life.
If you find yourself at a stand-still and unsure of which way to go,
seek Me for wisdom and guidance.
I will fill you with wisdom and spiritual understanding, which will be needed to keep you on the right path. I will lead you through the valley of shadows that are trying to cloud your mind, while bringing you into a place of peace that goes beyond your natural understanding. So, stay focused on Me.
My Child, the world in which you live is filled with words of deception and fear. Therefore, it is important that you always remember; you are in this world not of this world. Do not allow yourself to be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you can prove that greater is He that is in you and than he that is in the world. This is the only way you will be able to reach your destiny, so stay focused on Me.
Trust Me in all circumstances.
Fill yourself with My Word -
for My Word will help you to remain calm and
My Word will fill your soul with peace and assurance.
When you abide in Me, and let My Words abide in you,
you can ask for what you will and it shall be done.
Therefore, dwell in My presence, focus on Me,
I will cause you to triumph over the enemy
and lead you to victory.

Faith Believers,
At the end of the day, you can either
focus on what’s tearing you apart or
THE ONE WHO IS HOLDING YOU TOGETHER.
You will rest better if you choose Jesus.

Trust God, You Will Come Through (8.5.16)
My Precious Child,
Why do you listen to those unkind words?
Those words are not from Me.
Start trusting the gifts that I have given you.
Stop doubting yourself.
the enemy is trying to convince you that you will fail. he is trying to convince you that you did not hear My Voice. If he can do this, then he will have victory over you. Not only will he have the victory over you, but also the victory over others waiting to be blessed by you.
But I need you to go forth and bless My People.
I know you may feel insecure and insignificant, even like a child at times. However, at this very moment, you are being delivered of this mindset. Believe Me, I AM going to place you in a position that demands more than you think you have.
And I know that you may already feel like you are being stretched.
I AM giving you these challenging assignments
to break the confinements caused by your unbelief.
Trust Me, you will come through.
Read and Meditate on His Word
Jeremiah 1:4-12 - Then the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. Then said I, Ah, Lord GOD! behold, I cannot speak: for I am a child. But the LORD said unto me, Say not, I am a child: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak. Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the LORD. Then the LORD put forth his hand, and touched my mouth. And the LORD said unto me, Behold, I have put my words in thy mouth. See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant. Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, Jeremiah, what seest thou? And I said, I see a rod of an almond tree. Then said the LORD unto me, Thou hast well seen: for I will hasten my word to perform it.
John 10:4-5 - And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice. And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.
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.

A Thankful Love Prayer (8.4.16)
This is the day the Lord has made; We will rejoice and be glad in it! - Psalm 118:24 NKJV
Father in Heaven,
Thank you for another day on earth to live for You!
Thank you for watching over me last night
and guiding me safely through my sleep
to wake up and enjoy another day on earth.
What are your plans for me today Lord?
Please show me Your Will for my life and
lead me where You wish for me to go.
Father, your love for me is at a capacity
that is impossible for my human mind
to comprehend; and I am thankful
for Your love, Abba!
I give You this day and I thank You for it!
I love you, Lord!
Amen

On THIS Day, Walk in God's Victory & Assurance (8.3.16)
Faith Believers,
When was the last time you were told you could not do something?
When was the last time the cares of this worldleft you beaten, battered and bruised?
When was the last time you cried because you could not understand what was going on in your life?
When was the last time you needed a friend or a family member to encourage you in the Lord?
When was the last time you had to encourage yourself?
Sometimes in life, we have more questions than answers. There are times when the thought of "going on" seems impossible. There are times when evil doers seem to prosper, and the followers of GOD suffer.
Have you ever been there?
Are you there now?
There are times when situations arise that you were not prepared for.
There are times when you may be caught off guard.
However, just because things catch you off guard does not mean GOD is not aware. Every situation in your life is seen by the eyes of GOD. There are no hidden secrets or plans that GOD is not aware of. When "Man Says no," GOD is not defeated. Just because someone set a trap for you, does not mean GOD will fall into that trap. Just because someone hurt your feelings with harsh words, does not mean their attacks will work on the Lord. What am I saying is this, the attacks that man may throw at you will never work on the Lord. The Bible declares in Genesis 18:14, Is there anything too hard for the LORD? Man's denial of you, does not hinder GOD's approval of you.
GOD does not need man, but man definitely needs GOD.
If that blessing is yours, GOD will make sure you get it and no one else.
My brothers, my sisters - this day walk in the victory and assurance of GOD.
You are more than a conqueror in Christ Jesus our Lord. Do not live your life hoping that man will approve of you. It is not necessary. It is not important. Only what you do for Christ will last, anyway. When Man Says no, GOD can still say yes. The Bible declares in 1 Corinthians 1:27 - But GOD hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and GOD hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty.
Beloved, many of your accomplishments were not approved by man, truthfully speaking, man did not think you could achieve it. But the Lord knows all the things that He has placed inside of you.
There's an anointing within you that manifests when others say you cannot do something.
You were divinely selected by the hand of GOD to accomplish those things that were placed before you, so when Man Says no, remember GOD is still in control.

~ Prayer for Today ~
Father God,
Help me to live my life
to please and honor You.
Man's approval of me is not a necessity,
because I live my life for You.
In Jesus' name...
Amen

Scripture Reading for Today: Isaiah 54:17

I'm praying that the peace of GOD will flood your soul,
and send any fears that are holding you back, running.
So that the vision the Lord has given you
will come to pass.
Thank GOD for what you have,
Trust GOD for what you need

Take God's Hand (8.1.16)
My Child,
Why are you running from the attacks of the enemy?
It’s time to stop running, and believe in the things
that I have spoken and promised you.
It’s time to cause the enemy to flee from you.
I know looking at the circumstances around you might cause you to panic, and unbelief may begin to dwell within your heart; therefore, take My Hand and look to Me.
Feel My Strength come alive in you, and
do not run from the enemy anymore.
You are mine, there is nothing he can do to remove you from My Hand. Stand against all that is coming against you, and keep the enemy where he belongs, under your feet. You don’t have to stay down Beloved.
Be wise like Peter and reach up, take My Hand, and walk again. Nothing is impossible for Me. We will conquer and overcome together. I called you to be victorious over the enemy of your soul.
Look up, trust in Me, take My Hand
and we will overcome (and experience victory) together.
Read and Meditate on His Word
James 4:7 - Submit yourselves therefore to GOD. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
2 Timothy 1:7 - For GOD hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
1 John 4:4 - Ye are of GOD, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.
