Say Yes and Amen (6.28.24)

 

My Child,

You do not have to carry your burdens; I Am here to take them from you.  Do not walk each day in guilt from previous sins.  Give these to Me, and I Will wash them away.  I Will throw them as far away as the east is from the west; and they shall be remembered no more. I will throw them in the sea of forgetfulness.  If I AM with you, who can be against you?  Who can come against Me? Who is powerful enough to make Me run?  Is there any?  No! 

Say 'Yes and Amen'.

Each day I Send a new dawn and new mercy.  So, no matter what yesterday held, a new dawn unfolds for you every morning.  My Child, you know this; yet you allow the enemy to weigh you down with the guilt and shame of the past.  You must believe that My Promises are true, and sealed with The Blood that My Son shed for you.  This same Blood, His Blood (His Sacrifice) washed away your sins.  You are forgiven, I Will restore, and I Will heal you. 

Say 'Yes and Amen'.

Let go of all that has held you captive, and all that has anchored and weighed you down.  Release the chains that bind you, for I have set you free; and there is nothing that can enslave you.  Just believe and walk in the faith you have in Me.  Set your eyes on Me, listen for My Voice, fill your Spirit with My Truth, and walk forward in your freedom knowing that I Am Walking with you. 

Say 'Yes and Amen'.

For I Made all things, and I Have much in store for you.  More than you can perceive, and more than you can begin to imagine.  However, you can only see this if you turn away what is hindering you.  Turn away from the past and walk forward with Me; so that you can receive all that I Have promised you.  All that I Have planned for you. 

Say 'Yes and Amen'.

My Child, I Love you with an everlasting love; and I Will be with you until the ends of the earth.  I Will not let anything harm you.  I Will make a way out when your back is against the wall; and I Will deliver.  Believe in Me, as you believe the sun will rise each day.  Believe because they are My Words, and I Am not a man that I would lie or seek to deceive you. 

Trust that I Will restore, and bring you into a new season. 

Say 'Yes and Amen'.
Say 'Yes and Amen'.
Say 'Yes and Amen'.

It's Time to Walk Forth. You have The Victory! (6.25.24)

My Child,
I Know it has been a very long journey, but it was a much-needed experience. The process of teaching you to trust Me has been a worthwhile experience. My Child, you have done well.  You have experienced My Goodness, My Mercy and My Faithfulness; and you embraced Me, fully.

It is time to walk forth, confident in Me;
and fully assured that you have the victory.

 

Nothing will be as you think; however, it will be as I Have ordained for you. For the thoughts and plans I Have for you, are for your success. I Only want good and perfect for you. I Have so much planned for you.

Now, take courage My Child, and move. It is time to rise to the new opportunities ahead of you, for I Have placed My Wisdom and My Understanding within you.

 

So much has been deposited within you, and it is time for you to use what I Have given you and go forth.  It is time for you to walk in your victory. Do not procrastinate, and no longer are you to be passive. It is time to be aggressive and to lay hold to those things I Have put within you to do.

Do what I have shown you.    

 

I Am waiting for you to move. When you move and begin to act on what I Have told you to do, then the provision will be there. It will come as you step forth in complete trust in My Word. All the prior stumbling blocks that hindered your walk with Me have been removed.

 

I Am your GOD, and I Will supply all of your needs. I Am faithful. Now, it is time for you to go forth, and be faithful. Take no thought for how the outcome will be tomorrow. There is much that awaits you, if you just move and let Me show it to you.

The Storm You Face, Will End (6.23.24)

My Child,

I Come unto you this day to heal, restore, and to bring you closer into My Presence. It does not matter how intense the storm may rage around you: I Am The One who is always in control. Child, you must trust Me, to the end, no matter how hard the storms are raging in your life.

Always remember, the trial you are going through; it has come to test your faith.  And the trial will end.

 

My Child, trust Me, the storm you are facing will end. You must be ready to go on, trusting even unto the last hour. I Will make a way when you cannot see your way. I Want you to rely on Me, along.  Trust in My Spirit, not in what you see. 

Trust. Fear not.
And know that I Am able to do what I Promised.

 

What is it that you fear? Do not listen to what others are telling you. Listen only to My Voice, only My Voice. Stand on what you know to be true. Do you remember the last miracle I Performed in your life? How you marveled at what I did? You said, "I can't believe The Lord did that!!!" But I did, did I not? My Child, I Will do it again. I Took what you saw as impossible and made it possible. So, why do you wonder if I Am able to provide?

 

Oh, My Child, I Say unto you this day, 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 shall be no more. I Am pouring forth upon you a sweet and gentle rain.  My Rain shall renew, strengthen and breathe new life into you.

Embrace what I Am doing.
Do not resist.

It is important that you to trust Me, until the end.

I Will provide. 
Haven't I always? 

Trust Me, the storm will end.

Living in Peace with Everyone (6.20.24)

Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
It is GOD's Will that we live in peace with everyone. However, there are those that thrive on conflict and confusion with others. Their day is incomplete if they are not participating in confusion and discord. As hard as it is sometimes, we as Christians must persevere and respond to such behavior with love and patience.

Just like everyone else, I Am a work in progress, as well; but when faced with situations such as this, I ask myself, "Would Jesus have used these 'not so nice' words?  Or would He have responded in the way I did?" Once words are spoken they cannot be taken back.

Often I ask the Lord to please make me conscious of the words that I speak to others; because you never know how people will be affected by words you say to them.

Marilyn

~ Prayer ~
Lord,

I hate conflict. I really do want to live in peace with everyone. Help me to pursue peace and not just be apathetic about uncomfortable situations.

Show me how to do all that I can to live in peace with others. I want to reflect your peace to everyone I know. I want to respond to hateful words with loving words.

Father GOD, I want to be a reflection of you in words and in deeds.

I pray this prayer, in the name of Your Son, Jesus Christ.

Amen

Be It Unto Me According to Thy Word (6.19.24)

Family,

In Luke 1:26-38, we find the story of Mary’s encounter with the angel Gabriel, who announces to her that she would be carrying the Son of God.  In the moment, Mary responded with simple faith, “be it unto me according to thy word.” Such faith!

How would you have responded if you were in Mary’s place and an angel of the Lord came to give you a Word from the Lord? Would you have agreed with The Word and waited for His Promise to come to pass? I know tumultuous circumstances may surround the dream or The Word that the Lord has placed within us.  However, we must respond in faith and say, “Lord, it will be unto Me according to Thy Word."  Because The Word of the Lord says, “He shall supply all our needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus." 

That settles it.  It is done. The Lord is simply looking for us to stand in agreement with His Word, so we may bring to earth what has already been established in Heaven.

 

Be encouraged by Our Father's Still Small Voice:
 

My Child,
Only believe.  And have simple faith.  Faith in Me is what you need to have, in Me.  Just rest in faith, believing that I Am working - even when nothing seems to be changing. Call those things that be not, as though they were; and trust in Me.   Yes, have faith and trust. Trust that which I’ve told you, will come to pass.  Have faith that the way has already been made, rest in My Word, and it shall be done, as you believe.

Take hold of My Promises and all the good things that I said I would do. Put aside the words of the enemy and the fears of your heart. Loose yourself from all that is not of Me, and stand in faith.  Stand in faith, believe that I Am acting on your behalf, and it will be done - according to My Word.

 
~ Let Us Pray ~
Father God,
We know without faith it is impossible to please You,
and Lord, You are so wonderful to us.
Therefore, we ask you to please help our unbelief,
so we can always be good and faithful servants.  
Amen.

Stay Focused, Get Back Up & Abide in His Word (6.17.24)

My Child,

When you have made a mistake or think you have failed, the enemy will come in and whisper lies to you, maybe even taunting you to give up.  he will "remind" you of the many times you "failed" and may even try to convince you that you will never succeed.  Child, I Know you may be weary, but do not listen to his voice. he knows that each time you stumble, and get back up, you are getting closer to success.  he knows that if you keep pressing your way, you will destroy his plans. Therefore, he will do whatever he can to keep you so discouraged that you would want to give up and never try again.  You must push through and keep going; for you won't overcome the enemy if you give up now. 

 

And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb,
and by the word of their testimony.
- Revelations 12:11

 

Do not be thrown off track by his tricks, or the unbelief of others. Stay focused, get back up, and get back into the truth of My Word. Stay focused on what I Have Spoken to you.  Believe that I Am faithful to keep My Promises. I Am the God of Grace and Mercy. It does not matter how many times you have made mistakes or failed; I Am merciful, I Will forgive you and give you another chance.  All you have to do is get back up and try again.

 

For a just man falleth seven times,
and riseth up again
- Proverbs 24:16 

 

So, do not be discouraged and do not lose hope. Instead, get back up and try again.  Yes, try again -  knowing that I Am on your side.  I won't give up on you so, do not give up on Me. Take authority in the realm of the spirit, and do not back down to the voice of the enemy, nor to the naysayers that would come to discourage you.  My Child, you will never overcome your circumstances if you stop trying. Do not allow the voice of the enemy to hold you down, and keep you in bondage.  Get back up and try again.  

 

That is why we never give up. Though our bodies
are dying, our spirits are being renewed every day.
- 2 Corinthians 4:16

 

I Want you to open your spiritual eyes and see the truth that I See. When you see as I See, the truth will be revealed; and you will see that you are getting closer to Victory, more and more, every day. Turn a deaf ear to the lies of the enemy by listening only to My Voice; and keeping your eyes on My Word.  Renew your mind; refresh your thoughts with My Word; and think about things that are true, honest, and of a good report. If you follow these guidelines, you will be able to overcome anything the enemy tries to bring against you.

Now, get back up.  Try it again.  And you will see that you are closer to your victory than you realized.

Amen.

An "Ephesians 6:10-13" Mindset and Lifestyle (6.12.24)

Faith Filled Daughters & Sons,
Please immediately read this message!!!  It is powerful!!!!

I normally would not write this, but this message touched my heart and soul so deeply; because the enemy is real and he has magnified his evil to a level that many humans cannot comprehend. The Good News is,that satan and his followers are no match for our GOD and His Children; but we must believe, through all of the evil we see manifesting in our families and the world, that no one can stand against (nor match) the power of Jehovah or Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The Words spoken by GOD throughout the Bible are "true and powerful."

Stand, stand and stand strong on the Words of Jesus!!!!  

GOD is specific. He leaves nothing to chance.

When we ask the question, “When should I pray?” the answer comes instantly from His Mouth: “Pray without ceasing.”

 
We need to maintain a running dialogue with GOD - everyday and all day long.  In one of the most compelling passages in the Bible, we are reminded of: the enemy we face, the armor we must be equipped with, and - when appropriate - the battlefield where it is clear that we must engage the enemy.  
 
satan has done a masterful job flooding minds with fake news about himself. he has orchestrated a media diversion by characterizing himself as a funny little character in a red suit with a forked tail. In reality, all power was given to GOD but for those who do not know Christ, the enemy is the strongest, most evil and conniving force on earth, endowed with incredible wicked and evil powers. the enemy is 100% evil and completely devoted to the destruction of GOD’s Kingdom. Again Jehovah GOD is unmatched in power and there is nothing that can stand against the great "I AM."

Jehovah has all power over satan and anything that's attached to him.

 
Ephesians 6:10-13 states 'Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might. Put on the full armor of GOD, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil. For our struggle are not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore, take up the full armor of GOD so that you will be able to resist in the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm.' 
 
The words GOD uses are not random. We are fighting against powers, evil forces of darkness, spiritual forces of wickedness in Heavenly places. While reading this, think deeply about what this means. the enemy is orchestrating movements on earth by impacting nations; and by killing children, families and anything that stands in his way. he is destroying lives in record numbers and it is all driven by unadulterated wickedness.
 
he has created methods, wiles, and strategies.  Anything the enemy feels will cause total destruction and chaos in your life; he will use. he has specific plans for you, for your mate and children, and this world. the enemy has a database that is more detailed than anything a human mind can comprehend. he knows the exact, deceptive darts to throw at the exact right times - perfectly designed to bring destruction to our lives. 
 
Please ask GOD, in prayer, to reveal to you the methods the enemy has used and is planning to use against you and your family.  And then pray against any and all victories the enemy will try to claim. 
 

~ Prayer ~
Father GOD,

the devil is more evil than I can comprehend, and it would be to my detriment to ignore him or think that he will just leave me and my family alone. 

Yet, I know that You have overcome this world! I know that greater are You, living in me, than he who is in this world! 

Most of all, I know that the devil is already defeated through Your Son's Sacrifice on the Cross; and that You have Victory, and we have Victory, over all of his work!

Thank You, Lord Jesus!  I pray this in Your Mighty Name, Jesus.

AMEN 

 

Now it is Time. Go Forth. And Conquer the Land. (6.9.24)

Beloved,

Stay close to Me and allow My Presence to overshadow you, and saturate your life.  Just because things are turning around, do not be tempted to stray away from Me. Strengthen yourself in Me, and stay before Me.  So that discouragement will not be able to undermine the blessed assurance that is now upon your life. 

You are My Work in progress.  And I Am Working on you, and pouring much into you; because there is much to be done.

I Am Renewing your spirit, so that you will be able to stand strong against the spirit of fear, and do mighty things in My Son's Name. Stand My Child, and be renewed in the faith and confidence that I Am Pouring into your life. Continue to feed upon My Word daily.  Hunger and thirst for it, more than you do for natural food.  

Change is happening, and I Want you to enjoy what is happening in your life.  However, never forget where your help and strength come from.

Remember, apart from Me, you can do nothing.  

Things are happening, and the things you’ve been seeking will happen - suddenly.  

You’ve been prepared.
Now it is time for you to go forth.
And conquer the land.

¹  But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. ²  People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, ³  without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, ⁴  treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— ⁵  having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people. 

⁶  They are the kind who worm their way into homes and gain control over gullible women, who are loaded down with sins and are swayed by all kinds of evil desires, ⁷  always learning but never able to come to a knowledge of the truth. ⁸  Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so also these teachers oppose the truth. They are men of depraved minds, who, as far as the faith is concerned, are rejected. ⁹  But they will not get very far because, as in the case of those men, their folly will be clear to everyone.
