Big Picture

In crisis right now will continue soon, please pray for me!

Big Picture

God took a pile of dirt and breathed life into it! With a simple and profound thought of you! Every hair, every dream you would ever have! With that breathe of life came His hope…a profound and simple hope that you would return to him and share His love in a life eternal he has planned for those who love him. A love so deep so profound He gave His only Son that who so ever believed and turned from sin and seeks His Son shall find peace everlasting. Is not someone who loved you so much worth a second look, for you shall not find another with a love so pure…

More on the promises

NKJ 2 Corinthians 1:20 For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us.

‘IN HIM’ is a reference to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ; So that we know all of God’s promises are fulfilled in Jesus.  And Jesus backed up that promise and made another to return for us in:

John 14:1 “Do not let your hearts be troubled, Trust in God; trust also in me.” 2 "In My Father's house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you 3 "And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also 4 "And where I go you know, and the way you know." 5 Thomas said to Him, "Lord, we do not know where You are going, and how can we know the way?" 6 Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” 7 " If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; and from now on you know Him and have seen Him." 8 Philip said to Him, "Lord, show us the Father, and it is sufficient for us." 9 Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you so long, and yet you have not known Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; so how can you say, 'Show us the Father'? 10 "Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me? The words that I speak to you I do not speak on My own authority; but the Father who dwells in Me does the works.”

In my walk with Christ I have found great consolation in knowing where I came from and where I am going; it creates a self assurance within me. That is one of the leading reasons I find the promises of God so important.

In addition, my personal experience with God has been wherever I encounter fear I find a promise. And the more of these promises I learn, I find that if I stand on faith in God’s Word an obey His Word; I grow spiritually in leaps and bounds, and it is easier to follow after Christ and obey the commandments.

I would like to wind this up with two quotes I love about the Word of God:

1. John Herrmann “Our hope is not to found in running from place to place or in smug resignation to the evils of life, but rather in belief and trust in the Word of God…Thank God for this lamp of truth that burns ever brightly telling us of Jesus of Nazareth, the promised Messiah sent by God to redeem us from slavery to sin, death, and hopelessness.”

2. Is from Haldor Lillenas based of Psalm 119:105 “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.”

“The Word of God is like a light that shines serenely thro’ the night; its rays will light my weary way to the realms of a fair unending day.”  “The word of God is strong and sure, forevermore it shall endure, when oceans cease to kiss the shore, when suns shall set to rise no more; ‘Mid crash of worlds it shall remain unshaken midst the starry rain, upon it firm foundation strong, I will plant my feet thro’ the ages long.“

That’s all for today I leave you with a blessing

That God grow your inner man in both grace and understanding in Jesus Name….

Where I find love!

Happy Valentines Day to all....

If you get a little lonely on this love holiday as I sometimes do; I find peace in reminding myself of the great love I do have!


As darkness tries to surround me a light comes within my bones the light of the word ignites in my soul and burns in my bones like I will surely explode if not to praise my Savior as he lights the way I should go.

No matter how dark the darkness nor how hard it presses in; the light is there to guide me and protect me; that the stars become my friends for I listen intently to hear their soft song to ease my soul. I feel love upon me as I listen to the sounds of the universe singing gently in my soul your gaze and curiosity is near sometime I can almost feel it touch in the amber glow before morning when all is alive in anticipation of that first ray of light.

The steps I take hold no logic yet some where deep I know they guide me to my destiny all written in God’s Word.

As I set my eyes to the horizon I see the amber glow with a promise of a sunrise that shall bring the risen son. In the darkness of self when darkness presses in hope ignites and love is found when you move from self to love.

When you receive that love a flame ignites deep within your soul that edges away the darkness with the security of God’s eternal love.




When darkness comes to find me I search all around me for eyes that see or ears that hear another of heart to understand. Finding not, I strain to hear the song of the Morning Star to ease my darkness’ rage. I imagine your nearness the softness in your eyes and gentle trough trying hard to understand.

Are you in a life of lies

The following is something I wrote several years ago and I am posting it as a special request from a dear friend may God Bless and touch the hearts of those who read it with understanding.  I normally do not post this type of writing. After starting my own journey toward finding out why my life was so messed up and starting to a form understanding of some of the mentioned conditions in life.  I wrote this for a dear friend who was more or less in the same boat I was when I made these reflections in my life I shared with my friend and this is being posted that they might share it with others.

My next post for God's promises is almost ready and will be posted soon!  And yes, I will try to eliminate these rabbit trails I go off in....However special requests should be treated as such....


The life you led to reach this point in your life you have just always been the victim Hun? I bet one of your favorite lines is “well if this had not happen or that had happen or if so and so had not done this; I was abused as a child, I am from a dysfunctional family, no one has ever given me a break, no one has ever really understood me! And the list can go on and on; so I am going to take that last one and focus on it, “No one had ever understood me, poor poor me!”


How could anyone of understood you when you have never even told yourself the truth…Never have not in a whole life time…Have you uttered the truth to yourself…That is that private part deep inside your heart that place you do not go! You avoid those Christians God has been so cruel to you, you will never strike a deal with him! And those you surround yourself with all their problems are their problems…they probably deserve the disaster they are living in! A real Mr. Tuff Stuff! You’re not remorseful or sorry for anything you have always done what you had to do to survive!

So now you are in a mind set….you are ready, convinced yourself you are going to reign in hell! Well I don’t think so! You are too easy! Satan could care less about you…He has won and never had to do anything but place that first lie in your heart and get you to believe it! Those influencing demons that have controlled your life probably do not even know your name! The influence of the world is so strong in your life you just went right by the devils program. You see the devil has a program the D’s I call it, and you are no more that a D to the devil one of the easy marks, he knows if you continue you will be there with him in the burning pit and he did not have to urge you on at all just hand you a program of his D’s and you will do it all yourself.

I am of firm believe that the D program is not only for you desiring to reign in Hell but many who seek Jesus also fail to be Christ like because one or more of D’s they have not uprooted from their lives; blocking them from the ability to walk in love…

First let us go through the D’s

The first D is deceit some of us first learn to lie at a very early age almost as if it comes naturally and when we lie we almost always first internalize that lie. Can you remember that first lie? When you did something you knew you were not supposed to do? First you probably told yourself you where never going to do that again! Lie? At the same time you may have also pronounced you “Did not to it”! It was so easy! Now trouble begins; you see as we grow, so do the lies; sadly we have discovered how easy it is to lie to ourselves! And those lies will grow and remain with you, unless rooted out.



Second D:deception: is planned lying. Remarkably a synonym of deception is imposter and this is where we begin to invent and develop this image of who we will become if not stopped. This person we are inventing with our lies. For we have found lying is easy! Our lies begin to take on an entity of their own within us! So we start planning our lies so they will fit in with our other lies; sadly at this point far too many even begin to believe the lies they tell their selves. For every lie we tell to others we internalize and tell ourselves a lie to justify the lie we told. Slowly and predictably as you create this alternate person that can pass off as ourselves; since you have never taken the time out to find out who you really are.



Third D detachment: yep, now you have to keep your distance from others so they won’t figure out you are not who you say you are at all! So no one can break through the facade you have created with your lies. And it is easier to believe yourselves the façade rather than experiencing the pain of digging into who you really are and what your purpose in life really is…So now here you are someone you invented through your lies half believing them yourself with no idea of who you really are. Fear and panic now setting in that someone might break your great façade…You must not allow anyone to close!



Fourth D defense: now you start your strategy to defend who you have invented…Your defense never letting anyone come to close…never tell anyone everything, never a soul mate for you…Only someone who will believe the image you have built for yourself. If anyone grows to close you will destroy the relationship completely and yes this includes family friends’ loves…



Fifth D deep depression: you’re alone! You must not let anyone to close. You are the person alone in the middle of a crowded room. The person you have made turns out not to be the person you wanted to be at all…Your depression is building now to anger…you don’t want to be alone…you are going to start over now (lying to yourself) You are going to draw someone else into your depressed state…then you will be better (more lies to yourself). There is no way you can keep up a relationship you are too busy keeping up with yourself. So all you are doing is drawing someone into your web of deception the world of lies you have built to live in. You have your pattern set up so well and in place just the way you think you want it! For relationship all you can do now is force another to live your lie; sadly there will be others in your same state that will! (Can anyone see the word abuser here?) Now to keep any relationship from getting to real we must add alcohol, no one wants to drink alone, drugs yes, no one wants to get high alone and of course sex! Careful here, it may feel good for a few times, however, even sex will become another place your façade will dominate it is way too close to intimacy for you to ever fully enjoy or be comfortable with…

Can you relate to any of this? Let me share something with you here most of the world is right with you to this point in the D’s every lie in their live is like a little grain of sand that has accumulated into rocks with a firmness that could out last the ages. Where is this accumulation? Your heart! You have gone beyond feeling to hardness in heart, a heart so cold as stone there is only one who can make a difference! YOU!

Well I will get back to you! Let’s finish the D’s!

Sixth D depravity: Webster says “a depraved condition; corruption; wickedness;…a depraved act….

So here you are! So high on alcohol, drugs, and sex you really don’t care who you are! Nor do you give any care to what you think about and dwell on (a real danger zone). Worst, you do not even care what other people think including friends and family! You just want to feel good at all costs! So you really blow out to the extremes your façade kick up those lies a notch or two…So no one finds out you have reduced yourselves to nothing more important than the next high! Now you have abused every substance and every person along the way by any means available at the time. A lot of people just stay stuck right here; until their master the devil escorts them out of this life to the pit of fire for their eternal judgment! Sadly they leave this world never knowing why they were here, so they never really know why they where here; or what their destiny could have been. Also sadly some do not stop here and go on extremely fixated on that next high….



Seventh D debauchery: I am leaving this to Webster: “extreme, unrestrained indulgence of one’s immoral appetites; sexual pleasures and other indulgences….”
You can outline that one yourself…. To me it simply means your own manner of self-indulgence no matter what the price! And that is total victory for the Devil!

I call these the Devil's D's

There is still time if you are reading this, I honestly believe in my heart this is a life time progression that many of us follow. It is possible to jump out of this cycle by excepting Jesus Christ into your heart and giving up that person you created and allow him to create a new you. There will still be some paying the price of the life style you chose to indulge in, but Christ makes your road one of understanding if you ask, He answers. It is at that point you meet the true person you are and learn to stand and walk upright for you are on the journey to your true destiny.

Why search God’s promises!

Romans 15:4 give us assurances to the word of God.

For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.

For me I have found to remain close to the word of God is benefit for me in all things, to search out his word seeking wisdom and understanding within the scriptures. Proverbs 4 is one of the scriptures I keep close to my heart to remind me God has not denied me anything but that all things are possible.

NKJ Mark 9:23 Jesus said to him, "If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes." NKJ Mark 10:27 But Jesus looked at them and said, "With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible."

Solomon was granted much wisdom so I keep his writing about understanding close to my heart for he looked to wisdom as his sister!

NKJ Proverbs 4:1 Hear, my children, the instruction of a father, And give attention to know understanding; 2 For I give you good doctrine: Do not forsake my law. 3 When I was my father's son, Tender and the only one in the sight of my mother, 4 He also taught me, and said to me: "Let your heart retain my words; Keep my commands, and live. 5 Get wisdom! Get understanding! Do not forget, nor turn away from the words of my mouth. 6 Do not forsake her, and she will preserve you; Love her, and she will keep you. 7 Wisdom is the principal thing; Therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding. 8 Exalt her, and she will promote you; She will bring you honor, when you embrace her. 9 She will place on your head an ornament of grace; A crown of glory she will deliver to you." 10 Hear, my son, and receive my sayings, And the years of your life will be many. 11 I have taught you in the way of wisdom; I have led you in right paths. 13 Take firm hold of instruction, do not let go; Keep her, for she is your life. 14 Do not enter the path of the wicked, And do not walk in the way of evil. 15 Avoid it, do not travel on it; Turn away from it and pass on. 16 For they do not sleep unless they have done evil; And their sleep is taken away unless they make someone fall. 17 For they eat the bread of wickedness, And drink the wine of violence. 18 But the path of the just is like the shining sun, That shines ever brighter unto the perfect day. 19 The way of the wicked is like darkness; They do not know what makes them stumble. 20 My son, give attention to my words; Incline your ear to my sayings. 21 Do not let them depart from your eyes; Keep them in the midst of your heart; 22 For they are life to those who find them, And health to all their flesh. 23 Keep your heart with all diligence, For out of it spring the issues of life. 24 Put away from you a deceitful mouth, And put perverse lips far from you. 25 Let your eyes look straight ahead, And your eyelids look right before you. 26 Ponder the path of your feet, And let all your ways be established. 27 Do not turn to the right or the left; Remove your foot from evil.


So you see I seek understanding and desire wisdom to be as close to me as a sister to gain understanding which God gives forth abundantly! Therefore I am at this point in my life to seek out God’s promises in the word of God as that is how the Holy Spirit is guiding me…

I have always been quick and quip in saying I am standing on the promises of God…I believe God is telling me it is time for me to have understanding of those promises…God willing…

That’s all for today I leave you with a blessing

That God grow your inner man in both grace and understanding in Jesus Name….

WOW!



I have to admit I had no idea that the whole Bible is interlaced with the promises of God! It is truly a book of promises! Anchored securely with an oath from God

KJV Hebrews 6:17 Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath: 18 That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us: 19 Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil; 20 Whither the forerunner is for us entered, even Jesus, made an high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.

Do we not serve an awesome awesome God!

I have really pondering on this with this follow up in Peter:

KJV 1 Peter 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, 5 Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.


In my heart this gives a whole new meaning to: KJV 2 Corinthians 7:1 Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

So along with the busy of life…you can see I have been doing some real thinking about just how extensive, complete, secure, unmovable, unshakable, eternal and everlasting God’s love for us is! God’s love is truly beyond any thing our minds can conceive in its fullness!

So my word for the day…God sure does love you, consider that an think about it…God’s love for you is so extreme and beyond anything you can even think or imagine….He create you to live and walk in that love…You are the apple of God’s eye and he wants to polish you up!!! Forever!

I will continue in the promises for awhile!

I leave you with blessings for the day:
May God bless and grow your inner man!

January 29, 2012

Wow!

Promises of God! God is the ultimate extreme promise maker!

The ultimate promise keeper! And we can walk assured he will fulfill every promise He has made! How utterly awesome is that! I will be covering why we can believe that today and tomorrow!

I had no idea the vast amount of promises the word of God holds! This cannot be another of my rabbit trails, it is deeper than I ever imagined…

So I will walk slowly through and share how my mind explores this miracle of truths the Lord has stored up in His Word! There are so many I do not where this study is going to go…but I am on board!

My first thought was just what is a promise? Simple right, until you think about it, for it requires faith to believe in promises. I have asked several people what a promise is to them most answered it is “someone committing to do something without fail”. Words like assurance, guarantee, pledge, secure and undertake are all synonyms of the word promise. Every day we place faith in every day circumstances that our cars will run, the gas we buy will be good, the food we eat safe, our prescriptions will make us well.

Therefore, when we receive a promise we must place a certain amount of confidence in the source from which we are accepting the promise; in this case God through His written word. Perhaps that is why God gave each of us a measure of faith “KJV Romans 12:3 For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith”.

All of us having a portion of faith then what promises does God give us toward placing that faith in Him and His precious Son Jesus Christ and his Word?

Let me stop there for now and look up the scriptures where God’s promises show us He is indeed who He says He is and will do what He said He would do!

I leave you with blessings for the day:


May God bless all that you so for His names sake!

Working on the promises

Boy, am I a bad girl, as far as the daily thing is working, but the year is young and who knows before it is over I might just pull out of that. I can hope anyway!

You see that scripture to be alone is dangerous, for if you fall no one is around to help you up is very true. But being alone is my choice and I know I have to learn to overcome.

NKJ Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 There is one alone, without companion: He has neither son nor brother. Yet there is no end to all his labors, Nor is his eye satisfied with riches. But he never asks, "For whom do I toil and deprive myself of good?" This also is vanity and a grave misfortune. 9 Two are better than one, Because they have a good reward for their labor. 11 Again, if two lie down together, they will keep warm; But how can one be warm alone? 12 Though one may be overpowered by another, two can withstand him. And a threefold cord is not quickly broken


Now don’t get me wrong I am not out doing wrong, or acting out, I fall in game or TV commas. Where I get so bad I can not even get out of the house…Current condition pray for me.

That is bad, I know! And I am working on it….

When not in said comma.

I have been looking at the promises of God pondering them and trying to transition them into my mind and heart to strengthen my daily walk; for I am getting far too good at making excuses for myself and need to make some changes.

Another excuse I am heart sick and crazy searching for my zip drive which is the only place I had the work for my book on! Over a year's worth of work on my first 100 pages and it is gone…I cannot find it anywhere and yes, I am crying over it…

Woe is me you might say! But they cannot all be good days! With trials come growth….So my verse for the day!

And since I need change I will stand on this promise for today. Using The New Living Translation for I love the way it translates in this case. Romans 12:2

(I rarely use the living translation but in this case Yes)

“Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world. But let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will know what God wants you to do and you will know how good and pleasing and perfect his will really is.”

I will be posting my reflection on the promises of God as I make my way through!

I leave you with blessings for the day:

May God bless you abundantly…

Happy Friday

Ah........a day with no running, think I will start editing some of my blog, some of it is years old, and has typos....sometimes I write in haste what is on my heart and post without editing....yes, I am a bad girl:)
And some needs refreshed for I learn as time goes on about my precious Jesus. May the Lord bless you and watch over you and your comings and goings and set each of your steps toward the righteousness of Jesus our Lord and Savior today and always!


I am reminded this morning of the importance of Romans 10 and 9-11 9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the Scripture says, "Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame."

(Note this is two fold)

Our witness needs to come from a true heart of faith. If you are weak in this believe, pray that God show the truth within his word and stand in confidence that he will. Ponder within your heart God’s great Love

January 12, 2012...1-12-12

Good Morning and a happy stress free Thursday to all!


Yesterday went so well, I do not mind going out in that scary old world again today….

Folks let me tell you this landmark for me…

I have a dear friend Raymond who I would like for you to pray for today! That God touch His heart with the knowledge and that he receive that knowledge for the journey ahead of him….to lead him securely into the arms of God or heal him that he bring glory and honor to the name of our Father Jesus Christ Gods will.

As for me another day of run around, run around so I pray the Lord watch over and keep me in His precious eye that I do His will in my running….In Jesus name…amen….

I love to have a goal, a promise or scripture to stand on for each day….So today it is a promise…spoken by Mosses to God’s people as they complained of thirst in the desert at Marah (if you keep up with my blog you know I have been complaining of thirst) the fullness of this promise can be found in Exodus 15…God is always there to provide…

NKJ Exodus 15:26 and said, "If you diligently heed the voice of the LORD your God and do what is right in His sight, give ear to His commandments and keep all His statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you which I have brought on the Egyptians. For I am the LORD who heals you."!

I love this promise cause it begs a question....what is that question to you?  A point to ponder today....

Pondering the Word of God is a very healthy endeavor....

January 11th, 2012

Good Morning world!

Going to give live blogging a shot, for some all that spirituality in the morning is frightening. It can be I woke up and read Malachi post coffee....Yikes....thank goodness I went on to the first letter from Paul to the folks at Corinthia....calmed me right down...

Going to go out into the world today, sometimes that is a scary thought for me...however, it is time to get those boring live matters out of the way. For the most part the world is a scary place for me, even though I really do not have much fear in me....Maybe challenging is a better word for it!@

So many many empty eyes out there....scary....

Learning there is a big lack of faith in anything in most people these days outside themselves that is! Where are the lights of the world....it's time, past time to start shinning with the love of all man....I am blessed with knowing some who do!

On to hoping my car starts, my mind is alert, and my id in the proper perceptive for sharing…Well my id is wrong….that there is no my id….and the Spirit of my living God Jesus Christ is present and leads my sharing.

Going to try and remember to post a couple times a day with my everyday boredoms of everyday live and hope I do not come off as a Calvin and Hobbs strip...

May your find time for God's Word and prayer today in Jesus name....

My thing for today…..if someone asks me to pray for them, I am not going to take it home for a prayer list to be done at some other time, but take their hand and pray right then and there….let ya know how it goes now some breakfast food and on my way!!!

Welcome to the year of our

Lord Two Thousand and Twelve!

Yes, for my regulars this is one I felt should be repeated for this year!

Renew and refresh in the faith and love of Jesus Grace!

I pray your year is filled with wholesome yearning

to draw closer to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ

and that He fill the desires of your heart!

As we enter this New Year in the grace of our Lord I want to set my spiritual goals for 2012!


To somehow communicate the reality that it does not matter what we call ourselves Catholic, Baptist, Methodist or Pentecostal. We are all under the blood of the same savior Jesus Christ. Where our methods may vary in our worship practices we are all given to worship the only begotten Son of God Jesus Christ. Let me proclaim from the start that I am a seeker of the Mysteries of my redeemers word in all things, born from above through the grace of my dear saviors blood I have been cleansed and seek to fulfill my quest in seeking His righteousness that my journey here be pleasing in the sight of my God. Am I with sin? Yes, for where I not I would be purposing that God is a liar! But by grace my sin is covered by the love of the Father toward the Son and the Son toward the Father in the saving grace of the Holy Spirit through which they allow us to abide in the Son through His trials at Calvary that we manifest this truth; and this is the truth known in my heart.


KJV 1 John 5:5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God? 6 This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth. 7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. 8 And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one. 9 If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son. 10 He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son. 11 And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12 He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. 13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.
As the children of old so are the children of today some are goats and some are sheep…goats listen with earnest yet do not hear nor give their selves to any understanding. There is only a pleasant sound in their ear as they give ears of no understanding. And lift beautiful melody onto our Lord from their lips with their hearts scratched but never pierced that the blood and the water of their Father might give them understanding. Covetness and malice lies in their hearts creating a hardness that keeps the word of the Lord from being written on their hearts. They make merry with just the taste of goodness never desiring to submit to the fullness of the Word they hear! Perceiving no depth nor height nor width in the words spoken. Be ye not goats yield building your love in Christ that ye in truth be His vessel for His Name Sake….not yours! My words seem harsh even in my own hearing…there are so many levels and purposes (many forms of vessels) within the kingdom of God that we have no way of truly discern to what end their destinies are, so we must be ever so diligent in not placing ourselves into judgment of others.   So I will end this goat talk here praying earnestly that you receive my words in love and that the Lord forgive me the hardness therein. For God gives gifts on to all goats and sheep that His word be accomplish among us, Use not these precious gifts to promote yourself but rather to bring His love to all nations. There is such a fine line between judgment and discernment ask God that you always have a clear understanding for our purpose is to love one another and share in His bountiful gifts and graces. Not to divide from each other in fear, for fear is not of God. Be a good judge and discern those who love and serve him, examine their faith inquiring of their heart and the truth within or the lack of it will manifest then trust Jesus to guide you if you are meant to know where their love is cast you will be led by the spirit.




Paul teaches us that teachers teach for all reasons some to their own bellies, but to dismay not….For the spoken word of God has power beyond our reason be glad that the word is reaching so many ears for the Lord will draw neigh to those he will draw n near to for all things are for His purpose and choice. For there are many vessels in the house of the Lord…Focus on those who have not heard or have heard and been victim to the harshness of religions that examines only the flesh and passes judgment that the Lord has reserved for Himself; For He alone can see the heart we can only experience the fruit or lack of fruit in their words and ways




This is a personal feeling and only from my heart and experiences. For I feel the greatest mission field of all is right here in the United States for we are given to such crisp and fast judgment of each other; that many have come and retreated from the church for the experience they had with some of the goats…We need the non judgmental love of God to manifest in our hearts that we can draw them to His Word and they not suffer lack of knowledge from our hands.


As it is written there will be a great falling away…let us not be a creator of this but a source of God’s word within it….We must not under estimate the power we have given over to the evil one in the 2000 years past. But be aware for it is written that if God not shorten the time all would be lost…the cunningness of the deception I fear is great! May we stand strong in the word of God manifested in the flesh to die for our sins and be a constant and reliable source of the truths within Jesus Christ.

Please God end the dryness within

Thirsting from the dryness to end I know in my heart to drink deeply from the well of life, the living word of God. For it is only from there can the thirst of my soul be satisfied, yet with worldly wonder I still seek worldly answers.


Heart of hearts do you not know that you are a child of the living God, your source of nourishment protein, the essences of all you are is within the Word of God, your health, your well being, your sound mind are all a product of the great love spent at Calvary. The only future worth having is locked in the word of God waiting for you to unfold your destiny within Gods plan.

How clearly I see the future of those who depend on the knowledge of the world no matter how much richness of the world you hold the end is decay of the mind and body for we are created to find the path that leads back to our creator…all worldly pursuits are lost and destined to decay.

How long shall I be in this valley of dryness?

I pray my sweet and merciful Jesus, send to me restoring of a good and balanced spirit within your love. Set in my path those whom I need and the things I need to remain in the gentle mercy and loving kindness of your eternal love. I ask in the name above all names my sweet, sweet and most precious Jesus, by your great love my master and king, author of who I am show mercy…Amen

Depression

Oh how far my heart does wonder into the darkness of my soul.

Oh where are the praises of my soul; for the coughers of my praise and worship are bare with none to be collected and set before him in love and faith.

My heart longs to sing onto his glory to sing of His great might; to slip into His presence and soar within His great love, to bathe within His peace, to flow within His joy to be consumed within the light of His great love are the desires buried deep with in my heart; yet I turn my gaze and I am swept into the cares of this world and its darkness. Entangled to deep within the cares of the world the darkness of this life is trying to grow mighty between me and the love of His Commandments, the hope within His Word, the peace within His presence.

For my Jesus and Father God they do not change, where have I turned my heel, to what path have I set my foot to cause distance in Love. For I know their great love surrounds me, yet I withdraw into the darkness of my soul; trying to deal with the darkness of this life on my own…

My flesh it grows weaker and weaker in the absences of my immersing myself in your word dear Jesus, turn my heel and set my foot back into the fullness of your great love. I ask in Jesus name....Amen

My witness

About me!


On a personal note I find it necessary to let you know at this point I was an alcoholic, drug taking, devil believing discard of life. Who challenged God, that if he was real He was going to have to prove it to me. And God truly opened my heart and we began a journey.

For many years I attended church faithfully using the sermon and pastors prayers as my spiritual food for the week. I was going to church every Sunday morning and Wednesday night faithfully building my religious dialog. Contently I allowed religion to happen to me and not within me; satisfied completely with the twice weekly praise and pastors doctrinal sermons. Oh yes, I was so to say “saved” I had confessed my sins to Jesus and welcomed Him into my heart; believing in my heart and confessing with my mouth. Carefully I corrected my speech to reflect my Christendom conversion. Yet I was going about my day to day life in the everyday business with the same approach I had used my entire life; with the exception that church offered a whole new relationship base.

A personal tragedy brought me to question God in my quest to find out from God why these events happen and what good could come from it. I now know that the event had nothing to do with the outcome. However by God’s grace, God used the event to bring me to question my relationship with Him. God was standing with open arms for me to give Him my whole heart and my whole life. To this point I had only been picking and choosing what I would turn over to Him. The truth came to me as I realized God’s desire was to be intimately close and He wanted to receive everything in my heart, mind and soul not just what I chose to give to Him.

In God’s perfect time I discovered the true translation of “Saved” was complete or whole; bringing to me the knowledge while I was safely covered with His love (delivered from sin and death) and in the safety of His embrace I was also on a journey to be spiritually complete or whole. And a true knowledge of the passage from Philippians became a reality in my heart:

NAB Philippians 2:12 “So then, my beloved, obedient as you have always been, not only when I am present but all the more now when I am absent, work out your salvation with fear and trembling.” So I have to state clearly hear: That I believe our Salvation to be an ongoing process, I am sealed for redemption by the Holy Spirit and seek earnestly all truths in the face of my Lord Jesus Christ; that step by step I progress from the state of sinner to the likeness and image of our Lord Jesus Christ; that I be in Him as he is also in the Creator our Father God; a process of growth involving Spirit, Body and Soul. The more I learn the more I am acutely aware of how little we really do know.

With these revelations in my heart I transform my religion to an intimately personal relationship with Jesus and my true journey in Christ began. God’s love is intimate he desires us to turn over our whole heart especially as the days of true peril arrive; that we are safe and secure.

One of the first and foremost things set in my spirit mind

(NKJ 1 John 4:10 In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. 11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.)

was to know God’s great love for me as best I could in the flesh; that I might know how to love and express that love back to God through Jesus Christ, for our first commandment is to love God…God may have brought us to knowledge of Him in thousands of differing ways, however, once we acknowledge God there is a set pattern in the Bible and made abundantly clear that the first order of God is to love Him…God first loved us in creation once we acknowledge God we now have the ability to fall in love with Him and give that love priority in our lives and everything we do. I sometimes think we lose sight of the importance of Just plain loving God in reverence and awe as well as expressing that love to Him not only in our faith toward Jesus but remembering:

RSV Matthew 22:36 "Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law?" 37 And he said to him, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. 38 This is the great and first commandment. 39 And a second is like it, you shall love your neighbor as yourself. 40 On these two commandments depend all the law and the prophets."

First I have to admit I wanted to believe God was my creator in my heart; living so worldly for so many years I admit there was little strands of doubt in my heart from the years of believing the world’s knowledge on the subject. We serve a miracle working God for in my heart a vision of Genesis became a reality in my heart. For even before the words of creation formed on His lips

He knew me, He named me, He loved me, He placed in my heart and His heart hope for me that I might find Him and know Him intimately fulfilling my destiny in Him through His Son.

Even as he separated the light from the darkness and all that was to be for His creations laws of nature and time where forming God chose to be souvenir set apart for the age to come that we might come to know fully the extent of His love and communion with those who chose to seek His Sons likeness in heart and mind. No greater love is there than our God’s.

He created us with the ability to create that we might come to understand how powerful the love within creation is; reflect those feelings and know he feels the same about you. If you have no children can you remember that first project or event where you created something with the work of your hands, the love for it, the pride and accomplishment you felt within…that is same pride and accomplishment he feels when he looks upon your heart and into the hearts of those that seek Him; There is no greater love my friend.

RSV Isaiah 49:5 And now the LORD says, who formed me from the womb to be his servant, to bring Jacob back to him, and that Israel might be gathered to him, for I am honored in the eyes of the LORD, and my God has become my strength –

RSV Isaiah 44:2 Thus says the LORD who made you, who formed you from the womb and will help you: Fear not, O Jacob my servant, Jeshurun whom I have chosen. (Jeshurun "the righteous people": Israel's ideal character with His high calling (Deut. 32:15; 33:5,26; Isa. 44:2).

Once this was sealed in my heart and I from my deepest point of reasoning believed with my whole heart that God was indeed my Creator God; and He would do all He has said He would do, transformation after transformation became reality in my life. These truths began manifesting as I developed an inner man truth as I became totally aware of my own lack of any truly love filled perception as in Paul’s prayer for us in:

Ephesians 3:14

14 For this reason I bow my knees before the Father,

15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named,


16 that according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with might through his Spirit in the inner man,


17 and that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love,


18 may have power to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth,


19 and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.

20 Now to him who by the power at work within us is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think,

21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.




With this prayer in my heart I knew I had sever lack of love in my heart; I was void of any true love, realizing that only through Christ can true love be cast I took this warning to a deep place in my heart:

RSV Ephesians 4:30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, in whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. 31 Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, with all malice, 32 and be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.

Adding to this, the clear statement in John that if we do not love our brother we do not love God. “NKJ 1 John 4:19 We love Him because He first loved us. 20 If someone says, "I love God," and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen? 21 And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God must love his brother also.

Through these scriptures I came to the realization that to love God meant loving all men. At this point all my opinions and feelings toward others came to a new presence within me. I had taken the bulk of my trespasses and made them of no effect making all forms of excuses to myself and God.; When God placed in my heart “that when I forgave others in my heart I would bring that person or opinion directly to God; creating in that action a true prayer from a heart of truth for their spiritual well being and that act would in no way be left unnoticed.

Now this friend is a tremendous undertaking!

So I have elaborated!

Being an opinionated, person with likes and dislikes towards others with grand judgments of most people and things SET IN MY MIND knowing full well I was right. I found my self falling far short of John 4 and prayed for God to show me how to love even as Jesus. God quickly made me aware of all the bitterness, unforgiving, and judgment that resided in my heart and that my heart was full hardness. Rocks and boulders the size of the Rockies in some areas not a productive heart for one who professed to be a christian.

Turning over my UN-forgiveness and personal opinions of others to the Lord was not easy, I found out quickly that I could not do it; but I prayed to the Lord “the desire of my heart is to give all these things over to you Lord and anyone who has or will bring offense against me, teach me to forgive Sweet Jesus, that I might be pleasing before your eyes”.

I remember my journey to forgiveness; dealing with offense and depending on my own personal opinion of others like it was yesterday, I was walking around praising God feeling holy while living my everyday life with everyday emotions still very worldly, but something was changing; something inside had changed a barely noticeable change at first then I began to take notice. Every time I would pray the Lord’s prayer (which I believe is vital for us to do daily) when I got to that word “”as”” we forgive those who trespass against us….I would get stuck right there! Like I had no knowledge of the next line…This really started to work on my mind, I had a lot to be forgiven for – but, I knew through my confession Jesus had forgiven me and washed them all away. Why then every time I prayed would I get stuck right there and why every time I prayed was I always thinking about:

Who had hurt me…

Who had betrayed me…

Who had angered me…

Who had done unspeakables to me…

Who had never loved me….

Who had abandoned me…

Who had shamed me…

Who had lied about me…

Who had disappointed me...

And that is a list that could go on forever, for anyone. However in the beginning my mind would focus on that one person that I knew I could not forgive…. Every time I prayed, I thought of them. And I literally argued with God~~~ “God I cannot forgive them”~~~~ they hurt me beyond repair, then I would be able to put it away for a time, then it would start over. Only there was a difference…I began to pray Lord I do not know how to forgive them, please teach me your ways Lord that I might be forgiving….

And God took me on a journey I will never forget for the next several years even to today …As he teaches me, that every UN-forgiveness is like a piece of stone in my heart, hardening it, and that he loved me, and he writes on the softened flesh of a heart and that soften flesh was found in the heart of those who forgive. And there was a few on my list that literally took years to forgive, especially when dealing with family members and opinions I had drawn over the years. God showed me that my opinion about a person could prove lethal in the forgiveness encounter. I think our personal opinions are some of the hardest trials of the heart to submit. However my witness to this is the rewards are spectacular.

The new cleansed outlook can be refreshing and it gives you the opportunity to look on people without reproach, fear or anticipation of either. I spoke to you of rewards; your inward reward is an intimacy with Christ which grows in each act of forgiveness, every submission and renewal of opinion; with a stead fast faith you are covered and protected to love your neighbor, which is re-assurance in the age of multiplied evil. My outward reward was truly far fetching as the act of communion became a true joining with the Lord that goes beyond anything I can relate in mere words. Several of my outward sins remain even to this day; however with time I have faith they will fall away to the degree my Lord Jesus Christ has planned in my destiny remembering.

1 John 1:8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

From this I gather sin is part of the worldly existence less God be a liar; which is perplexing as I seek my Jesus’ face, knowing He paid the full price for my sins yet in some sins I still dwell. Lord Jesus have mercy on us all. So I stand firmly on the promises of God as written in:

1 John 1:7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.

Today and every day the flesh of my heart still finds a few offenses for the day and stony patches, I turn that offense over to God; sometimes it is within my heart to just forgive other times I look to Jesus with this prayer “Jesus, I cannot find it in my heart to forgive this person, please show me your mercy and guide me to forgive ______ and those I find unforgivable.” And in time I found myself re-evaluating, finding out something I never knew about the situation, my sensitivity or my feelings seemed to change. Until I could bring that person or situation to the Lord with real love and concern in my heart for that person and their spiritual well being. Jesus working is what I have always called it! And with every new day and every old or new act of forgiveness came spiritual growth that was above and beyond measure.

Is forgiveness an important part of the Christian walk….It has been for me! It is the event that draws me close to God. If you do not know what your spiritual state is, look in your heart, and see how many pebbles, rocks or boulders are blocking your next spiritual growth experience. You see God’s Forgiveness towards me was instant but my forgiveness of others was a journey toward knowing my God intimately. You will be amazed at how situations just change or defuse when you pass them on to Jesus. Of course you have to leave them with Jesus and not pick them back up…but, that is a whole new writing. Was it a smooth journey? No! Am I still on it, Yes!

It took time; however, God did guide me on how to overcome offense; with this revelation I have found I need to renew my mind in Christ daily and confess and know deep in my heart that He is God and He will do what he says He will do. I found a need to stay saturated in His truths. Each time I reached forgiveness in my heart to a person or circumstance and gave thanksgiving for them in my life to Jesus, the Holy Spirit brought me a little glimpse of Glory that cannot be described with mere words.

(If interested in the ‘glimpse’ see my blog writing “to kiss the Son”). Interestingly this term “desire to kiss the Son” is mentioned several times in older Bibles; and translated out of the newer versions with the exception of Psalms 2. Being a person of the generation of books such as “1984” and “Fahrenheit 352” where there would be mass book burnings in the latter days. I now believe there is no need for book burnings for the truth or meat of books are edited and translated to a point where the meat or truth of the book is omitted. A more environmental friendly approach to removing the truth let’s say.

Along with forgiveness I found a real spiritual need to stop judging others.

I experienced an extremely self righteous state in my first years. I passed judgment on everyone who did not believe exactly and to the letter as I believed. I learned the hard way (judge not less ye be judged by the same measure) that to pass judgment on a brother or sister in Christ is throwing the concept of “love thy neighbor as thy self” right out the window. I found there was a very thin line between discernment and judgment; one easily crossed over with our current day denominational differences. 1 & 2 John are clear on who the enemy is….so even though others may not practice as I do they are still a part of the kingdom of God…A body has many parts with very differing responsibilities to the whole. But to confess Jesus as the living only begotten son of God is only possible to those of God. There will be many who cannot and will not make this confession in the latter days and these are the anti Christ according to John.

My tendency to judge others was a huge mountain for me to remove, and I must admit I still revisit that mountain from time to time when I walk in the flesh to long. I in my vigorous search for that perfect church I had set in my heart and mind that anytime I heard judgment of others in Christ or politics coming from the altar I would just get up and leave right in the middle of whatever and I must admit still do on occasion. The Lord gave me two scriptures that weighed heavily on my heart:

NKJ John 9:39 And Jesus said, "For judgment I have come into this world, that those who do not see may see, and that those who see may be made blind."

This demonstrates clearly to my heart that he is our judge.

NKJ 1 Timothy 5:24 Some men's sins are clearly evident, preceding them to judgment, but those of some men follow later. 25 Likewise, the good works of some are clearly evident, and those that are otherwise cannot be hidden.

I gathered from these passages that though we may be able to judge the worldly God reserved the right to judge those who call on His Name Jesus.

When I came to this knowledge that I cannot see the heart of man, nor the inner thoughts of any man, nor do I know who has called on Jesus name from a believing heart; how can I then pass judgment.

Do not misunderstand me I am able to address faults of those who openly are not in line with the commandments for the good of the gospel. Remembering always the great commandments are to love my God with my whole heart mind and soul and my brother as myself. Personally I found passing judgment was as I stated earlier “I learned the hard way (judge not less ye be judged by the same measure) that to pass judgment on a brother or sister in Christ is throwing the concept of “love thy neighbor as thy self” right out the window.”

NKJ Romans 10:9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the Scripture says, "Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame." 12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. 13 For "whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved."

Since it is in the nature of man to form opinions and pass judgment I pray earnestly that I approach other concepts and test them from the grace of God in the Word of God; as I ask you to do also in this writing. Remembering always we have not the ability to see others heart nor know if they have called on the name of the Lord, for even at this moment God may be drawing them onto his Son, Jesus from the darkness of this world.

KJV 1 John 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: 3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. 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.

I guess to sum up my witness to this point: I believe we need to get a good grip on just who God is! To know that you know, he is your Creator lover of our soul with no doubts what so ever, no big bangs wandering around in your head no doubt that you where fearfully and wonderfully created by His hand with a purpose and destiny within His Son, Jesus. Know when He looks on your heart He only sees the ability He created in you to love and extend that great love you have for Him onto all others that share this worldly experience; that we all may all be refined through and in the love of Christ.

May the God of Peace and Love abide in you, May our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ draw you to the waters of eternal life found in the many mysteries found in the cleansing blood of Jesus Christ.

As Jesus grows nearer

As the hour of our Lord grows nearer, the reality that we are spiritual becomes more forth right in our hearts and minds, the expression we are spiritual beings having a human experience takes on a new undeniable truth. The hidden hunger built in our hearts at creation to unite with our creator becomes an unrest deep in our hearts that only God can bring peace to. As the harsh reality of this end of the age time world brings clarity to the true value of faith created through God and delivered through faith in God’s Son Jesus Christ a new hunger grows in the heart of man.

Salvation is the light we seek to make a difference in this world, for threw the blood of Jesus we become mirrors of Jesus love for us, our reflection, Jesus light within to give hope to those in darkness...We are the generation blessed to shine our lights into the darkness...to light the way to those perishing all around us to the bondage of the world...Seek to kiss the Son that your light might shine.

Faith in Jesus Christ is the light onto darkness. God sent many before us to witness to the Glory of God’s goodness to His people. In the first hundred years men where living epistles to bring to others the knowledge and wisdom of God’s new covenant with those chosen to be His people. It is only threw the blood of Jesus are these truths manifested to a true knowing reality and light onto the oppressed...the blood shed of Jesus Christ our redeemer reveals the truth that not only are all things possible but probable if it is God’s will that is being sought.

In the reality of seeking God we must recognize his will. Keeping this knowledge save within the protection we are afforded through the blood of Jesus in prayer and supplication to a deeper understanding of His written word upon our hearts. For it is the words written within that will give you the necessary strength in the reign of the Anti Christ; With all that I am I truly believe that we shall once more be living epistles.

The simplicity within the Word of God must not be lost or analyzed to a point of degeneration of its purpose. For only by faith provided through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ can understanding of His word manifest its self to truth within the heart of the seeker....

Man’s ability of his self is full of logical ends, Gods plan is full of eternal solutions. Most beyond the scope of mans intelligence less God opens your heart, mind and soul to His Truths; truths you where created in.

These are truths you must seek, doors you must request be opened for if you seek these truths through the Son of God you will find the reality your inner man seeks. Confirmation of these truths will become an undeniable part of your existence. Faith in the Holy Trinity.

The Trinity a most precious, precious gift of our God. For we where separated from our Creator God by sin in the garden; and God begot His only Son that we might be free from sin to reunited with our Creator through His most precious, cleansing blood and granted through their extraordinary love; with presents and fore thought of their love most holy and precious the availability of their most Holy Spirit available to us through the precious and grace filled blood of Jesus Christ; to lead and guide us to the true reality of love in the Father and the Son with their presents within our hearts. Who will write all we need to know to reunite as companions with our creator God.

Careful in those you place over you

Know those who you place in Authority over you!

Recently I had a very unusual experience that would create fear in any heart except those well planted in faith of Jesus Christ and in the Word of God.

God has blessed us with eyes to see at times those things hidden from the eyes of the worldly; This I have found to be a mixed blessing at times. However not without purpose!

There are those within the heart of Christ that would impose their views into the flow of the Spirit of God. I have prayed earnestly about this and was reminded of the Tower of Babel.

NKJ Genesis 11:4

And they said, "Come, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower whose top is in the heavens; let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be scattered abroad over the face of the whole earth." 5 But the LORD came down to see the city and the tower which the sons of men had built. 6 And the LORD said, "Indeed the people are one and they all have one language, and this is what they begin to do; now nothing that they propose to do will be withheld from them. 7 "Come, let Us go down and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another's speech."

“nothing that they propose to do will be withheld from them.” God is truly a gracious God for he has given us power through the spirit a power I fear sometimes we fail to realize the depth and width of.  Really think about this passage...ponder it deeply...for it is saying many things...

Back on track

People preach for all reasons as stated by Paul:

NKJ Philippians 1:15 Some indeed preach Christ even from envy and strife, and some also from good will: 16 The former preach Christ from selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my chains; 17 but the latter out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the gospel. 18 What then? Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is preached; and in this I rejoice, yes, and will rejoice.

Knowing this as a truth in my heart I give attention to all who speak the Word of God with a prayer for God to guide me in what I receive or reject. My personal experience made me suspect of the intention of one who would attempt to over ride the flow of the Spirit of God in communal prayer... with their own perception that I fear is born in prejudice and judgment from some of the lessons I have learned spiritually in the steed of our acquaintance, which is the brotherhood of Jesus. At the risk of sounding totally insane this persons continence changed to a hardened fearsome mask of legal danger with their iniquities trying to show themselves. Knowing somewhat of this person I know that the pure love of God is their base, covered by the grace of our Lords precious blood and always seeking that love and the gospel they preach normally with a gentle and endearing spirit of love. Yet in this spiritual moment fear had to be overcome with love and prayer for this person...With a gentle warning not to fall under the authority of this person. Yet this person is in a vision I have had of prayer and faith standing quietly in approval. (Which leans me to wonder perhaps dual faith in denominations needs revisited)

Be careful when choosing those who you allow spiritual authority over you to be pronounced. Even with those you know to be in Christ.

I still hold fast to the faith that we who have chosen to follow Christ in the river of forgiveness’ granted at Calvary no matter what we call ourselves we are all children of the living God. How people can express that those who confess Christ are demons is beyond my scope of reason. For in my heart it is truly like the head telling the foot it is to be cut off for the body has no need of it; which is stated in scripture as a warning not to allow... For It is the living Christ only who leads and guides us in the truth within his word; Though I have many good teachers and mentors the increase comes from God alone has always been my experience. I am going to revisit John1 to update myself on this.

Do all things in prayer, stay planted if that is God’s will for you, but pray earnestly that you fall not under an authority who will stunt or hinder your growth. Spiritual Authority you will know and recognize if you stay in prayer for guidance from your true teacher and re-warder Jesus Christ by His Spirit alone will you reach the inheritance he has laid up for you.

So let us be mindful of the great power God has endowed us with, when drawing opinions, or judgments of those who confess Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, test all things in the Sprit of Love of our great and glorious God and His Son Jesus Christ through the wisdom of their most holy Spirit. For the days will come at the end that judgments will be necessary to fulfill the Word of God, let us be careful to be in the flow of our precious Jesus and His love, not a spirit of judgment.

Scripture and prayer for the day

KJV 1 John 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: 3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. 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. 5 They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. 6 We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.

KJV 1 Corinthians 3:3 For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men? 4 For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not carnal? 5 Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man? 6 I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. 7 So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase. 8 Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour. 9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building.

I thank you Jesus for all you give to me each day, in spirit and in the physical. For without you I would be nothing, with no hope, no love, no future. I praise and exalt your might name, your are King of kings and Lord of Lords, the Great and Might I AM.

I pray Dear Lord that you would be my all, that every thought every dream, every imagination be drawn from Thy most Holy Spirit...For you are my shelter from the storm, you are my hiding place Dear Lord...It is only you I wish to exalt, may my essences be yours dear Lord.

You are the Lord on high, give me a new song to sing onto your Glory...May I hear the words I gave to Hope Street also, and may your love shine on them as they create a song to bring many onto the Lord and exalt your mighty name. Give me direction I need to take now for my writing Lord. Fill me up Jesus, place each of my steps in a path to bring you Glory, may I walk in freedom as you would have me walk, may I understand all that comes with, calling on living waters...Work in me Dear Jesus...I submit onto Thee Dear Lord all of my sin and iniquities cleanse me in your blood, wash me in the cleansing waters of your love, let my life and Spirit reflect the you in me...to all that are to know...Go before me dear Lord and prepare the hearts of those to help me along the way that your will and glory not be delayed in your purpose for me within the inheritance thou has chosen for me Dear Lord..

My sweet, sweet Jesus Dear Lord I thank you for all the blessings you have placed in me, for I am very undeserving Father of such a great love, Keep me now Lord, let not my enemies rejoice over my trials and make folly of my love for Thee my precious precious Lord. You know my every thought Dear Lord and my every weakness, remember dear Lord that in My weakness YOU will be strong. Mold me and shape me to what you have set for my destiny within this life for you are my destiny, grant to me the destiny Thou has prepared for me, grant me the inheritance thou has chosen for me Dear Lord.

I ask these things my redeemer, my salvation, my-love, my hope My precious, precious Jesus I ask all within your name my precious Lord Jesus your will be met not mine.....Amen.

Small reflection

From an old prayer journal "This must have been a day of philosophy for me! After reading Chesterton no doubt; He reasoned that Christianity as written was most sufficient, its problem was it has never been practiced in truth."



On a hill so far away in what appeared to be despair the Son of God gave forth all he was that we might join our God!

God took his hand and raised His Son that all to be would know the great love in creation was theirs if they would but seek and believe upon the Son..

There is a seed within us planted at creation~~~to seek the source of our being; to acknowledge and know our creator the Holy One of Israel.

The ways of man are onto themselves accepting their own wisdom or trusting in the wisdom of other men to guide them on their way~~

Never searching within themselves to find the truth hidden within the great love they have access to…at Calvary it is a hard thing to search within~~

For the ability to find ones truths all lay within their own hearts~~I pray who ever reads these words~~to take time to spend just pondering his Word and getting to know Jesus Christ finding out what His word has to say. Our thoughts are fertilizer to our Souls in need of control. For as we look to the living God that seed planted in creation begins to grow~~~in open hearts and minds.

Jesus and the Word, for Jesus is the Word bringing our seed to life so tenderly He guides us~~In what we need to know and this seed is planted within each and every Soul~~

Our emotions are negativity's play ground, our opinions usually build grieve and strife~~Less they are tempered with love and understanding to know and come to oneself that there is more to life than what we can see, hear and touch; That we are indeed a part of something much bigger.

To weigh the worlds argument we are just an accident, can you look in a child’s eyes filled with hope and love and honestly believe it is by accident…Do you not know that same hope and love is what God wants to restore to you! He is waiting on you! Holding out his hand!

We are filled with emotions and opinions that we have generated from our limited capabilities to understand how we as individuals fit into any whole. Anger, pride, self sufficiency all filling our heart and minds to where the art of reasoning has taken a back seat to the fast paced things we can see, hear and touch; keeping us from pondering and reasoning out truths that may lie directly in front of us.Less we submit that there is a higher power and that power is Jesus Christ and in this submission we find His mercy, His knowledge we come to an understanding that is beyond ourselves and the understanding that we cannot reach independently.

Thanksgiving

The only way it could be!

His love so vast and eternal

His Son gave our salvation to unfold

His spirit to guide us through

Love so deep beginning to end

From all three the only way it could be!

That we might see

And seek a love so true!

Who are we that He should care!

Yet a companion He desires us to be

Everlasting love granted through the Trinity

The whole of God who is love in all through all

How blessed we are to even contemplate a love so true!

Yet by His Spirit united as one we shall be!

Praise God for His wisdom

Praise God for His love

Praise God for His Son

Seek His great wisdom

Seek His eternal love

Seek the Son

Give thanksgiving for His wisdom

Give thanksgiving for His love

Give thanksgiving for Jesus Christ

That through His great love we all shall be one!
