Courage is a place of stepping out into arenas and situations is which the person is not necessarily comfortable or familiar with. To me courage is faith amplified. According to the God’s Word Translation Bible, Deuteronomy 31: 6 states “Be strong and courageous. Don’t tremble! Don’t be afraid of them! The Lord your God is the one who is going with you. He won’t abandon you or leave you.” As the saints are drawn out of areas of comfort and what they are familiar with in life, they may feel like things are spinning out of control. In the natural, it is as though a funnel cloud has come upon them to sweep up and take everything they know and have with the strong forces of the wind that is produced when the appearance of a funnel cloud is present. Not so, quite the opposite. It is the wind of the Holy Spirit that is stirring things up in your lives. It may feel like everything is attempting to be taken from you but in reality it is the movement of God’s hand trying to release to you all that He has for you. Not to be forgotten or forsaken. There are dreams, visions, words spoken into your lives, and destinies to be fulfilled in so many saints’ lives. In our eyes, we see these happenings as a grand proportion, when in reality it is an ordinary undercurrent in the hands of God. Do not fret, worry, allow it to grow in your minds image to something that it is not, and above all, do not run from it and hide. Embrace it and stand before it with courage for that is when God can empower you with the tools to cast down those imaginations that are creating something to be that is not. We are to call forth things as though they are not as though they are. Be cautious and wise as to what you are calling forth in your lives and the lives of your family. This truly is an exciting time in which we live. We are the generation to usher in the mighty move of God upon the earth. As I write this, I am speaking to myself also. At times, I am guilty of thinking things are much more worse than how God sees it.

WOW What A Day

After I published the blog this morning I did what I stated. I closed the doors open with the person the Holy Spirit showed me. No sooner did I complete that and I was then shown a second person. I then closed the doors on that persons prayer also. I don't even know if anyone reads this blog. If a certain person reads this that I recently have been asking to pray for me please know that the above two people that I make mention of neither one is you. You pray awesome prayers. Thank you.

On with the day at hand. During my journey today I came across a person in which we shared and during the sharing this very subject came up that I just published this morning. If you have been reading any of my writing you will probably guess the answer to what I did, I ministered to them. Right then and there this person was delivered of the Charismatic Christian word curses. Is not the God I serve awesome?
Remember we are not suppose to boast and rejoice that we cast out demons we are to rejoice in our salvation. I am so thankful every day that Jesus died on the cross and rose from the dead so I don't have to live in hell for eternity. I am also most thankful for the Holy Spirit that gently nudges us to do the work we are called to do. The best part of all of this is "God is love."

It's OK To Ask For Prayer, You Really Better Know Who It Is That Is About To Pray For You

I have found that in certain times or situations in my life the Lord wants me to seek him out and to get an answer from Him via the bible. I know when this takes place because I will make a few attempts to contact someone for prayer and they are either not home, don't answer the phone, etc. I have learned the hard way by experience. Don't keep resisting this and keep searching someone out because you are determined to get what you want. Stop in that moment and listen to what I just said "To get what you want." That is the red sign warning flag right there. If you continue with that mind set and attitude you will get just what you wanted. That is dangerous. You want to get a word from the Lord not from someone who is saying a prayer and they are not hearing from the Lord they are able to read your hearts desire and they are just repeating it back to you. That is dangerous because when they start speaking what you want to hear you then think that must have been from God. It in fact was not. Then the big problems come forth from just opening a door that God did not open for you. So, if God didn't open the door then who do you think did? If you guessed satan you are right. He is very sly and cunning and he knows how to work and use Christians.

The result now is a prayer that was just prayed for you by a Christian. Do you realize the power in a prayer by a Christian, especially a charismatic Christian. I know the power in that prayer because I see the end result when they come to church for a deliverance. All of the sudden things in their life that were going right on schedule with what the Lord spoke to their heart are now going haywire. Please put caution to who you seek out for prayer. Another clue that the prayer you just received was not of the Lord is if your life is going off track it seems to be after you prayed with that person. A person whose heart is not right with either God or you will also open that door.

You say to yourself I think they are walking with the Lord. That is what they are telling me. Don't just go by hearsay seek to see the fruits coming forth from their life. I am extremely cautious as to who I lay my hands on to pray for and whom I ask prayer from. The reason I mentioned the danger in receiving prayer from a charismatic person in the wrong spirit is because the Lord showed me it is a much more powerful word curse that has just been placed upon your life because you stepped out of the realm of the Lord's will being done in your life. Think about it and it makes perfect sense. As a Christian we know the power that is behind the name of Jesus. We can see the dead rise and the lame walk and the deaf hear. So a simple prayer now becomes a Charismatic Christian word curse in your life. There is a difference between a Christian word curse and a Charismatic Christian word curse. You can receive word curses on your life from others or you can also bring a word curse upon yourself. An example, my brother would always say he was not going to live to see 50, I would tell him not to say that. He kept saying it repeatedly and he literally dropped dead on the sidewalk , I think he was 47 when this happened.

Why do you think satan uses the saints to work in this area or realm? Because he knows there is so much more power behind that prayer just spoken by a Christian than if he sent 1,000 witches in to pray an incantation or curse on your life. I implore you to be very cautious in this day and age in which we live in. If you believe that this door has been open in your life. Stop right now and ask the Lord to forgive you. Then repent. Now, you need to say these words "I choose this day to break any and all curses that came forth with _________ then say the name of the person that prayed the prayer with you. I close the doors that have been opened by the prayer and I cut off any communication with the spirits that were legally allowed to enter my life from that moment forth. I draw a Jesus Christ blood line around them, tell the spirits to line up like a chain link fence and now use the name of Jesus. Speak forth I dowse you with the blood of Jesus and I encircle you with it. I bind and gag you and cast you to a dry, arid, desolate, uninhabited place to never return again in Jesus name. I break any ungodly soul ties between me and ________ and _______ and me and I draw a Jesus Christ blood line between me and ___________ and __________and me. In Jesus name I pray. Amen."
Now, you need to speak into your life the direct opposite in your life of what was just kicked out of your life. An example would be, if lack and poverty all of a sudden came into your life you now speak into your life no lack and speak in abundance and prosperity. Lack and abundance is not just monetary it can be a variety of things. Look and examine your life the Holy Spirit is always faithful to help you in these situations. Seek Him and His wisdom. He has been faithful to me always and he will show you the exact person and prayer that was prayed in which you now have to go and reverse the curse and speak forth the blessing. Be very cautious of who prays for you OK.

I am not just writing this for the heck of it. As I am writing and exposing the enemy to you the Holy Spirit just enlightened me as to who prayed with me. I will go and break the word curse that was put on me because I trusted and asked someone to pray for me because I thought that was the thing to do months ago. I am telling you I know better because of the training I have in deliverance and I allowed myself to get tricked by the enemy. Not for long, as soon as I publish this I will do what I just shared with you to do in your lives. I think I just taught a lesson in deliverance to you today.

Today Is The DAY OF ATONEMENT

The best gift you can give to your children (besides loving them) is the gift of integrity. If they see integrity and it is cultivated in them they will be able to conquer anything in their lives. If there is no integrity there is no strong foundation to build upon. That is why it is important to be cautious with whom you surround yourself with. It is not just your life it is now the influence that will affect your children also. Integrity comes with a price up front but a far greater reward in the end as you walk in it.

Read Proverbs 31: 10-31.

INTEGRITY 9/28/09

The definition of “integrity” in my electronic dictionary states “strict personal honesty and independence; completeness; unity; soundness” The thesaurus states “character; fiber; honesty; probity; principles; incorruptibility; uprightness; oneness”

Bear with me on this writing for there will be many Scriptures to correlate with this.

Leviticus 19: 11 “Never steal, lie or deceive your neighbor."

Psalm 1: 1-3 “Blessed is the person who does not follow the advice of wicked people, take the path of sinners, or join the company of mockers. Rather, he delights in the teachings of the Lord and reflects on his teachings day and night. He is like a tree planted beside streams a tree that produces fruit in season and whose leaves do not wither. He succeeds in everything he does.”

Proverbs 11: 1-3 “Dishonest scales are disgusting to the Lord, but accurate weights are pleasing to him. Arrogance comes, then comes shame, but wisdom remains with humble people. Integrity guides decent people, but hypocrisy leads treacherous people to ruin.”

Proverbs 16: 8 “Better a few possessions gained honestly than many gained through injustice.”

Isaiah 33: 15 “The person who does what is right and speaks the truth will live. He rejects getting rich by extortion and refuses to take bribes. He refuses to listen to those who are plotting murders. He doesn’t look for evil things to do.”

Amos 8: 4-7 “ Listen to this, those who trample on the needy and ruin those who are oppressed in the world. You say to yourselves, ‘When will the New Moon Festival be over so that we can sell more grain? When will the day of worship be over so that we can sell more wheat? We can shrink the size of the bushel baskets, increase the cost, and cheat with dishonest scales. We can buy the poor with money and the needy for a pair of sandals. We can sell the husks mixed in with the wheat.’ The Lord has sworn an oath by Jacob’s pride: ‘I will never forget anything that they have done.’ ”

Colossians 3: 9-10 “Don’t lie to each other. You’ve gotten rid of the person that used to be and the life you used to live, and you’ve become a new person. This new person is continually renewed in knowledge to be like its Creator.”

"As time progresses onward know that My people that are called by Me and humble themselves and turn from their wicked ways shall inherit the earth. There are many that stand up to injustice and are not afraid to stand up for what is right and true and just and not cower back in the face of the enemy. Lives will change in an instant for this new movement of God upon the earth. Watch and view what is about to hit the earth in a mighty way. Not just a movement of God with the train of His glory filling the sanctuary both the physical church building but also the physical person that is and will become a carrier of the glory of God to release onto the people. The words to describe INTEGRITY are already amongst you now. Look to the nations that are sharing of the great and mighty things the Lord has done. Those very nations will be the forerunners to take this to the very nations that are backing down on what is truth and justice. There is a plan and action already in place and pockets of glory are starting to fill in regions and lands that are not ashamed of the Gospel and preach it with reverent fear. To the lands that have so much and so little is shared with others be of caution. I am a God that shall not be mocked and I do not tolerate this sort of action. You are living in times of great treachery and tragedy. Just look around you and see the wake of destruction all brought about by mans own plans and visions being implemented. I come and bring life and abundant life at that. Death and destruction comes forth from the enemies hand plotting and plans going forth because a people or nation have invited him in and gave him room to destruct. Turn from your wicked ways and repent and fast and let Me heal your lands. I can take a barren land and turn it into the most lush garden with fruits beyond compare. Turn from your wicked ways and repent again I state so I, Jesus, can heal your lands.”

I fasted today and received the above words. As I was watching a broadcast this evening the Day of Atonement was being taught. Come before Him and stand before God with a repented heart ( you want to get everything right in your life) and rejoicing spirit and say to God "This is Your day." When God acknowledges you saying this as long as it is done by midnight in your time zone there will be 7 things released in your life:

Double portion; financial blessings; restoration; special miracles; divine presence; family blessings; and deliverance.

If you have been experiencing a lot of attacks in your life within the last month it is because satan unleashes more attacks as the Day of Atonement approaches. Come boldly before the throne of grace to receive mercy and grace. Open up your hands and place something in your hands and make an offering so as to not stand before God empty handed.

Fasting Releases The Anointing And Divine Revelation

I am going to tag team yesterdays writing that was written in reference to tithing in the churches. I fasted yesterday because the Holy Spirit prompted me to. There is a situation in my life that I needed to hear clear direction. I do not know all of the facts at all but I do believe that what I follow through with will help another person. I am doing my part but it really is not for me it is for the other persons benefit. When I fasted yesterday all I can share with you is it felt like these arrows or darts kept coming at me in the spirit realm but the beauty in it was that I was also shown there was a shield protecting me. Hallelujah, God is faithful.

I said all of that to tell you that I thought I was fasting for one purpose and there was also another purpose that sprang forth in the fast. This morning I received divine revelation in reference to tithing in the church. The tithe belongs to the Lord and offerings should be above and beyond that. When did tithing become a bookkeeping issue with the church? I would guess there were no tithing/giving envelopes years ago. What one gives in a tithe and offering is accounted for by heaven. I know there is an accounting of what a person is doing not just with monetary giving but also with giving in other ways for the gospel to go forth. It is being recorded in heaven.

Envelopes have a purpose so don't go and throw them all out OK. If there is a special offering one wants to give or money is given for a specific reason it is needed still. It is the heart that the Lord sees. If there are pastors/preachers; evangelists; prophets; teachers; or apostles out there that are taking up emotional-high pressure offerings and a person feels shoved in the corner to give trust me there is no anointing there and that offering just went into barren ground.

People, I implore you to not fall for that trick. The Holy Spirit a lot of times will tell me if and what to give to a certain guest speaker in advance of me even walking into that church. It is absolutely OK to listen to your heart and give when you are prompted by the Holy Spirit it is not OK to give when pressure is being put upon you and you are not getting an unction by the Holy Spirit. What about those offerings being taken up when they tell you that there are so many people that are there that will give $ and then they name an amount of money. That the anointing will come upon the giver double portion etc. I always thought the anointing was there to be received by people that are open and willing to receive it and know how to handle and take care of it. Not to be used and abused for their own personal satisfaction and use. The anointing is there to break yoke's not to bring forth yoke's in a persons life.

I have been in meetings already when the high pressure tactic is in operation and I did not get an unction to give. The Holy Spirit showed me to just let the offering bag pass by and close my eyes. It takes a lot of courage to do that when everyone around you is giving. I said all of the above to propose this to the church, why not let giving envelopes go to the wayside and let the people have the freedom to give what they are suppose to give. Without that added pressure of some board or council knowing the giving report statistics of the people on an individual basis. You would probably be pleasantly surprised at the giving going up in your church.

Today is Sunday, go to church and receive the word of God and do not forget to give your tithe and offering to the Lord. See what I said "To The Lord." If you should feel more freedom in not placing your offering into an envelope and anonymously placing it in the offering bag, plate, basket or whatever is used to collect the money, then do it. Be very blessed today and remember to share your smile with someone. God is love.

Prophetic Word Given On 11/30/06 For Churches Across The Nation

11/30/06

I lift up the churches across this nation, every single one that struggles with receiving the tithe into the church.
Many people hear the Holy Spirit & the direction of where to place the tithe money. How many churches are operating & following through with where the tithe money is to go within that church? As time gets ever near to the Lord coming to claim His people-the people will begin to hear ever so clear & direct as to where to place the tithe.
The tithe has been taken for granted by both the people & the churches that receive it. The churches struggling with receiving the tithe need to examine their church administration & to be honest with where & how the tithe is being allocated-are they the Holy Spirit’s promptings or are they being ignored & man, per say, is creating the ideas all on his own as to where the tithe goes? Are there church spending habits that need to be not so loose and to not be wasteful or taking on projects that have no finance to support it & still go ahead with the project because of impatience? Sort of putting the cart before the horse-so much impatience in the church’s now. As the churches begin to examine their spending habits & ideas & plans and start to respond to the Holy Spirit’s plans & realize they got off course-then repent and turn their hearts back to the Lord-you will then see the people turning their hearts & tithe back to the church.
The people in some instances are just being disobedient in matters of the tithe, others are truly hearing from the Holy Spirit as to where to place the tithe.
Let the churches step up & examine themselves & as they repent & change their ways-the Holy Spirit will release people to begin to place the tithe back into the church.
It is truly up to the churches & church leadership to cause this to change around again-as it is intended to be.

Prophetic Word For Churches In Ohio That Was Given 10/14/06

10/14/06

It is now time to call forth all churches in northern Ohio. To clean up and clear out sin sitting amongst them in their church Board Rooms; Boards of Elders; Deacons; Directors; and Trustee’s. If one does not choose to change their ways, thoughts, actions, and hidden agendas, the hand of the Lord shall come forth to strike and remove them and will hand pick the one to replace them.

This is a time of serious change to let the true anointing and direction head forth for this region.

It will start with northern Ohio and gradually work its way down to the very southern part of Ohio.

You will begin to see the fruitfulness that comes forth from the cleaning of the churches in the northern section of Ohio. As it begins, you will then see that from the very northern point of the state of Ohio to the very southern tip will see and experience the glory of God and the anointing. It will cover the state of Ohio and flow. It will be likened to anointing oil spilled from a bottle. It starts at the one point and then flows downward.

Eagle Prophetic Dream With Interpretation

Eagle Prophetic Dream with Interpretation 12/16/07

I was at a campground of some sort. It appeared to be a season where there were leaves on the trees. I never have seen an eagle at close distance in my natural life and in this dream I saw a huge eagle dive down to swoop something up. As it was coming to catch from the ground a piece of paper I saw huge wings spread to full capacity and its body cavity was very large. I thought it was going to knock me over but it did not. When it came down from the sky it was not the way a bird would fly normally. I was able to see the magnitude of this animal due to the way it came down from the sky. It was as if an eagle had legs and feet that allowed them to stand upright as a human would stand up. That is how it came down from the sky.
It scooped up from the ground what it wanted and then my eyes were directed to look upward to see where it took the object. As I looked up I saw a very huge tree with no leaves on it and this particular eagle took it to the very top of this massive tree and I was able to see seven various eagle’s nests scattered at different levels of the tree randomly, there was no pattern as to where the nests were placed in the tree. There were two other eagle’s nests close in proximity to the one on the very top. The eagle deposited what it swooped up into his nest and there was a mother eagle and two baby eagle’s that had their mouths open to receive what was given to them.
As you see in the natural that when the time of the year is that trees are filled with leaves and you come across this tree filled with power in a magnitude as great as you saw it. That is to remind you of what is taking place now. There are powerful ministries and men and women of God that are being stripped down to the bare and exposing what is in their homes. Once there were things that were hidden amongst the fullness of the tree and all its leaves, now to be exposed for all to see. As the eagle swooped to grab what was on the ground it represents the word of God and how the little ones began to eat it and then spit it out because it was not what they were use to consuming.
Be careful and watchful this day and the days to come forth for there are many that operate in power and strength and they have abused this power and have been feeding the church not the true word of God and due to them feeding them the watered down word of God they spit it out when the true living word of God is given to them. Pray for My church and leaders that the truth is exposed and they turn from their wicked ways and repent and cleanse not only themselves but also the congregations that they contaminated with the user-friendly version of the bible. There will be healing and deliverance and restoration to the people and the leaders.
If they chose to not repent they will remain in a barren tree and will see their ministries literally fall out of the tree and wither away. You will know that this is the case because there will be mighty ministries as you know them today that in a few weeks you will say “Who is that what did they do?” Be very cautious as to who you allow to speak into you life, you have just as much responsibility as to what you receive into your life as do the one’s that speak.

Church On The North Coast Really Moves In The Holy Spirit

Pastor Kayatin preaches the truth via the bible and nothing less than that. He studies the word of God and seeks to hear from the Lord and always brings forth a word for the people. On top of that they have awesome praise and worship.

Most recently, a word was taught on the Prophetic Blessing. It was most relevant and it bore witness with my spirit. I will try to share the notes that I took.

There is also a lot of Scripture that was referenced throughout the preaching/teaching. I just wrote down the beginning Scripture. Deuteronomy 7:15:
"The Lord will keep you from having any kind of illness. He will not strike you with any of the terrible diseases you experienced in Egypt. Instead, he will strike all those who hate you."

So many are running to and fro to get prophetic words for themselves, please be cautious. A false word that was not from the Lord can bring more harm than you can even imagine.

When you speak with tongues it is sign of the judgement of unbelievers. It is a sign to the unbeliever. God will judge present unbelief. Prophecy is a sign to the believers. A blessing to the believer. Prophecy results is rest and refreshing. If anyone prophecies to you and there is no rest or refreshing it is the sign that the word was not from the Lord. The OK is if rest and refreshing occur.

Basis Of Testing A Word Spoken:

1.) Does it line up with the testimony of Jesus.
2.) Does it speak according to the whole scripture.
3.) Does it command in accordance to what is written.
4.) Does it edify or uplift. It should never be in a harsh tone or condemnation. A rebuke will be given gentle and not condemning.
5.) Fulfillment proves a prophetic word.
6.) Is the prophets lifestyle righteous.
7.) Does it bear witness with your spirit.
8.) Do you have confirmation
a.) Own inner witness of what God is saying to you.
b.) Look for congregational or peer witness.
c.) Spiritual authority confirming (even a mentor in your life.)
The last important note I wrote down was do not move out in your own experience.

Many years ago a very wise elder taught me about the prophetic and how to minister a prophetic word. I often refer to this illustration because it was most helpful to me back then and I even remind myself of it now when I bring forth a word for someone.

There was a beautiful mirror in the entrance way of the church. It had a beautiful and ornate frame around the mirror. He asked me what the purpose of the mirror was. I said to show your reflection when you look in the mirror. This is what he then taught me. The mirrors purpose was in the glass inside of the mirror. That is where you see the reflection when you look at it. It had a beautiful frame added to it. The only purpose of the frame was to add attraction. The frame had no other purpose other than adding to the attraction. It is not used in helping achieve a better reflection of the glass. He then told me to think of this image when I bring forth a word. Always seek the Lord to only bring forth the word of the Lord (which would represent the glass portion of the mirror.) Never add my own thoughts or opinions to the word which would be in reference to the frame, it had no purpose other than adding to the beauty of the mirror. The point being, only bring forth the crystal clear word of the Lord and do not add anything else to that word.

Witnessing Is So Easy With The Use of Chick Publication Comic Books

I love to share the Gospel and Jesus with people. Chick Publications distributes witnessing tracts. They appear to be small comic books with the riveting truth of hell and the great news of the Gospel of salvation. I learned through a very wise minister how to utilize them when I travel. You leave a nice monetary tip inside the booklet on the nightstand, dresser, or table in the room for the person that took care of your room. You want to bless them for their efforts and for making your stay comfortable. They see the tip and then the book has already been open to them because they had to retrieve the money from it. The true blessing to that persons life is sharing the Gospel with them. The plan of salvation is written in the tract.

I was at a church recently and they allowed me to take several of their tracts with me. I keep them in the car because you never know when you will be called upon to share the Gospel with one in need. That very thing happened today. I was in a town and I kept passing this small restaurant as I would be going to my destinations. It was lunch time and I felt that gentle nudge to go there and eat lunch. I did not at that time. I looked at the restaurant and thought to myself it is very small. What if the food is not palatable or the restaurant was not clean. I did not take lunch at that time. After going past it several times throughout the day I decided to take a late lunch and just follow the leading of the Holy Spirit.

The restaurant was clean and you can usually tell the quality of the rest of the meal by the flavor/preparation of the tea and the soup. Both were delicious. The meal was also good. I struck up a conversation with the waitress and she was telling me about the statistics of MI and OH with job loss. We were both ranked pretty high up there. I told her that my God can reverse that. She said she did not attend church. She truly blessed me because she allowed me to order off of the lunch menu even though it ended a half hour prior to me arriving there.

I left her a generous tip and the Holy Spirit prompted me to go to the car and get a tract and give it to her. I did. I told her that it was a book on what my God can do. I then left. God is so faithful if we just yield to His calling. I was blessed with a good meal but most blessed that I was able to share the Gospel with this woman.

The Lord Celebrates You

The Lord Celebrates You
September 23, 2009

Let me share with you the most beautiful words that were contained in a birthday card sent to me this year. “You are the Lord’s wonderful creation, fashioned first with His heart and then with His hands. He rejoices over your talents, gifts, and abilities because He chose them just for you.
He delights in the details of who you are-the color of your eyes, the curve of your smile-because He is the designer of each one. So on this special day and always, remember the Lord loves you, He celebrates you, and He’s so glad you’re His!” The scripture verse also included in the card is Zephaniah 3:17 “The Lord your God is with you, He is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you. He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing.”

Everyone has something that should be celebrated in their life. If you woke up this morning and you are breathing that means you have another day to go forth and do the work in which you are called to do. A birthday is special because it is the day that God breathed the breath of life into you and created you to come forth into the world that very day. I have an excerpt of a very special writing that I would like to share with you now. I wrote this prior to me interviewing for a job. Talk about stretching my faith. As the interview concluded, I felt the Holy Spirit prompt me to print on a piece of paper what the letters of the word “grace” meant. I then handed it to the person I interviewed with.

I find myself writing a bit about birthday's today because it was not too long ago that I celebrated mine. I saved the card because it was uplifting. It was as if it were hand written for me. I came across that card and inspiration came forth. May you also receive the same words and claim them for your life. God truly does love us and He delights in us.

Warning: Do Not Fall For The Trick Of The Enemy, He Will Use Christians In The Process

The closer a person gets to walking or stepping into the destiny that God has called them to, the enemy is right there baiting you to walk in offense so as to get you temporarily off of the stepping stone into destiny. I have found that he uses Christians or so-called Christians as the pawn in this game of his. Earlier today I received a phone call and when I hung up the phone I could feel offense starting to well up inside of me it even brought tears to my eyes. I operate in the field of deliverance ministry and I know the ramifications of offense when a person allows it in their life. You do not want this door open in your life. I contacted a strong person in the Lord and asked them to pray for me. They were not aware of the situation I just asked for prayer. That is what you want to do in a situation like that. For some reason we regress to the old way of thinking in that moment and prayer will rebuff that. Have the sense to know when you need to enlist the help of a strong Christian. Do not be prideful in a situation just ask for prayer. The Holy Spirit is faithful to even show you or prompt you as to who to ask for prayer. In that same respect, you should also be ready in season and out of season to be the one to pray for someone in their time of need also.

It lifted from me and the rest of the day was just fine. I would be in a different frame of mind right now if I did not do the above. Thank you Holy Spirit for your divine wisdom and direction and now I can flow forth with the writing I will share with you this evening. Stay strong in the Lord and continue to bless others. Remember, it is better to bless than to curse others.

March 26, 2009
It is just a little before 2:00 AM and after praying in the spirit and then singing a song in the spirit I heard the words repeatedly and over again TRUST. If they could be shouted from the mountaintop and treetop that would be the word magnified to me from the spirit of the Lord. It then came to me to go and write this:

Neighbors

Resurrection seems to resound in my spirit. In my electronic dictionary the definition appears as “A revival; re-birth. The rising again of Christ on the 3rd day after the crucifixion. The rising again of the dead at the last judgment.”

Reaching for anything less than Jesus will not allow you the opportunity to experience righteousness in your life. When you accept Jesus into your heart, there is no effort on your behalf to allow this righteousness to flow in your life. Seekers of pleasure and only of worldly things and distractions will then cause your heart to be troubled and it then becomes a challenge to go forth and move forth in the spirit of the Lord. Accepting Jesus into your heart with a truly humbled heart and mindset will allow the blessings to unfold in your life and the lives of your children.

Reaching is an act of choosing to do something. A person cannot reach without extending their hands and arms to be postured to be in that position. In the act of reaching one also has to filtrate that through their mind, it starts with the thought to reach and then it is followed through with the action that places it in motion. How many people think the thought and do not follow through with the physical portion to complete the action? The same stands forth true when it comes to matters of the heart. With Jesus dwelling in your heart, the Holy Spirit plants the desire in your heart and then it is manifested in the thought process and then the individual has the choice as to whether or not to follow through with the promptings of the Holy Spirit. How many more people would be walking in their destiny if they stopped for a moment and took an account of their life and the many times that the Holy Spirit prompted them to go somewhere, speak something, or do something and they just dismissed it? How many people’s lives were then not fulfilled because of that act of disobedience in the person’s life that chose to not follow through with the movement of the Holy Spirit?

I asked the Holy Spirit before I began to pray in the spirit to please shed light on my path with precision. I currently asked him to share with me about the above words “infiltrate ordained neighbors.” This is what He is speaking to me, When a person refuses to follow the prompting of the Holy Spirit, it not only affects their life but also the lives of others (too numerous to even think about.) The more frequent a person hears and responds to the Holy Spirit the glory then is released in that person’s life. If you were able to visualize in your mind a description of that this is what the Holy Spirit is showing me…Think of a mighty rushing waterfall that is outpouring vast amounts of water at such fast speeds that the receptacle is not able to contain this vast amount of water. It spills over to whatever the surrounding area is. Each time a person is disobedient to the calling of the Holy Spirit it then causes the flow to slow down. When there is excess of this disobedience in a person’s life the water is not able to even fill the receptacle that is provided to receive it. That then is reflected in their life.

When the Holy Spirit has a person in need of the almost depleted person’s life or testimony or witness to the person in need, the person becomes not fulfilled in their life because the disobedient person chose to not follow the Holy Spirit to help the one in need. Another person lost in the shuffle so to speak. Now, the flip side of this scenario. The person that is very active in hearing the voice of the Lord and then responding to the promptings increases in the glory. When the glory encounters a hurting, searching, person the overflow is able to minister to that person in their time of need. This is where the words come to play, infiltrate ordained neighbors. You never know who the person is that you are ministering to in that particular moment. They then are released to continue on the path that their destiny resides on and then they grow in their destiny as they respond to the prompting of the Holy Spirit and begin to overflow in the glory in their life. Ready to help the one in need. Then their ministry reproduces in the next person they minister to and so forth. The simple acts of faith that you chose to respond to will eventually touch someone that is ordained to move forward and touch the lives of others. Why does man try to complicate something that is so simple? Seek the Lord while you can, turn from your disobedience, ask for forgiveness, and then begin to operate in the promptings of the Holy Spirit. Think of it this way, each time you decline there is one less person that does not receive what they were to receive from your response and how many more people are then affected by that?

I Had The Distinct Honor Of Meeting Two Women Of God Today They Were Not Whining But Shining Brightly

As the title states, I had the distinct honor of meeting two women of God today. They were not whining but shining ever so brightly for the Lord. I thank you Holy Spirit for guiding me and directing me this very day for our paths to cross. I had a choice this morning to continue to whine or to shine as the Lord wants not only me but all to do. In this world and times in which we live in it is so easy to get caught up in complaining and seeking out the negative and negative people in the world.

Try this for a change. Wake up in the morning and ask the Holy Spirit to guide and direct your path that very day. To place people in your life to extend to them kindness and a word of encouragement. That person you just gave a smile to may have had no one smile at them for days or even weeks. When you start to step out in faith and with the intention of sharing kindness you will find yourself getting blessed when you were not even looking for a blessing. Take it a step further.. now you have to have vision with me as I explain this next part. That person that you just shared kindness with now has a much nicer outlook for their life. They then start to share kindness with others. And so forth and so forth, get the picture? Imagine what our world would and could be like just by the simple gesture of one person. It continues to grow and we then can see the world in a positive rather than a negative atmosphere. Instead of complaining we would hear words of encouragement. This is not impossible because all things are possible with God.

Thank you ladies for sharing with me today. I do not need to mention names for you already know who you are. Keep watching and look and see what the Lord is about to do.

God The Father, The Son & Holy Spirit Are Three In One

I had the opportunity to carry on a conversation with someone the other day. He told me that he did not believe that God the Father, The Son, and Holy Spirit are three in one. He referred to it as the triune. I think I had an expression of shock/disbelief on my face when he stated that. I began to defend Jesus and asked him if he believed that He was born of the Virgin Mary, died on the cross and rose from the dead. His reply was that Jesus was only a man and not God. I told him he was wrong in that and that Jesus chose to come down from the splendors of heaven and take on our sins and die for us so we will be saved. He came to the world as we know it in the form of a man, no less God. I asked him where in the bible does this show this. He also told me that when the Holy Spirit is in capital letters in the bible it refers to God and when in lower case it refers to the gifts or things of the Holy Spirit. I told him I will get the verses in the bible to show him God is three in one.

This happened yesterday and I knew I was going to church that night for an evening service. The presence of the Lord was very real last night during praise and worship, the preaching of the word of God, and even after the service when they played a worship song again. I went up to my pastor and presented to him the above situation and asked where in the bible does this show they are three in one. We were extra blessed yesterday because one of his colleagues was also there (a bible scholar and preacher also.) I was told three scriptures that support this in the bible. Let me share them with you now so as to clear up any thoughts of others that are thinking the same thing as the person I spoke with.

Genesis 1: 26 "Then God said, 'Let us make humans in our image, in our likeness. Let them rule the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, the domestic animals all over the earth, and all the animals that crawl on the earth."

John 1: 9-18 " The real light, which shines on everyone, was coming to the world. He was in the world, and the world came into existence through him. Yet, the world didn't recognize him. He went to his own people, and his own people didn't accept him. However, he gave the right to become God's children to everyone who believed in him. These are people who haven't been born in a physical way-from a human impulse or from a husband's desire to have a child. Their birth was from God.
The word became human and lived among us. We saw his glory. It was the glory that the Father shares with his only Son, a glory full of kindness and truth.
(John declared the truth about him when he said loudly, 'This is the person about whom I said, The one who comes after me was before me because he existed before I did.)
Each of us has received one gift after another because of all that the Word is. The Teachings were given through Moses, but kindness and truth came into existence through Jesus Christ. No on has ever seen God. God's only Son, the one who is closest to the Father's heart, has made him known."

Colossians 1:13-23 "God has rescued us from the power of darkness and has brought us into the kingdom of his Son, whom he loves. His Son paid the price to free us, which means that our sins are forgiven. He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. He created all things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible. Whether they are kings or lords, rulers or powers-everything has been created through him and for him. He existed before everything and holds everything together. He is also the head of the church, which is his body. He is the beginning, the first to come back to life so that he would have first place in everything.
God was pleased to have all of himself live in Christ. God was also pleased to bring everything on earth and in heaven back to himself through Christ. He did this by making peace through Christ's blood sacrificed on the cross.
Once you were separated from God. The evil things you did showed your hostile attitude. But now Christ has brought you back to God by dying in his physical body. He did this so that you could come into God's presence without sin, fault, or blame. This is on the condition that you continue in faith without being moved from the solid foundation of the hope that the Good News contains. You've heard this Good News of which, I, Paul, became a servant. It has been spread throughout all creation under heaven."

Scripture verses came from the God's Word bible.

Be blessed today and please go to church and worship the Lord and receive the word of God. Don't forget to not only be blessed but share of yourself and be a blessing to others today. You just never know when you are entertaining angels.

Storms In Our Lives Do Pass

Storms In Our Lives Do Pass
June 25th, 2009

The storm and winds really picked up and there were white caps on the lake. Even with the car in park I could still feel the wind’s force while in the car listening to praise music. How majestic you are Father even in the midst of a storm in the physical/natural. The waves roll in constantly and the winds blow us here and there. There is one thing that remains constant, your peace and the assurance of knowing you are in control. These are the words of the song playing now:

“Exalted, he is exalted on high he is exalted for great is the Lord let all the nations say exalted he is exalted.
Blessing and honor glory and power unto the Lord be praise sing with the chorus resounding before us holy is your name Yahweh holy is your name.”

When the winds and waves seem to kick up a storm in your life, know this “HE IS EXALTED.” That is what I find myself doing, exalting Him. Who He is and thanksgiving within my heart of all that He has done and will do and just about to do. He is awesome.

As you do this you begin to see that as in a natural storm rolls in it also begins to subside and the winds die down and the waves begin to settle down and the next thing you know the water becomes calm again. All that is left is the gentle sound of the rain softly falling. I think the gentle sound of rain is soothing. That is because the storm lifted and the gentleness of the rain can cleanse things. I love a rainy day because I look at it as a free car wash. God is good and greatly to be praised. As I look out on the lake in the horizon, I see streams of light coming forth. Even in a storm seek out and find the lining of light because peace does preside in and out of storms. Thank you Lord for this glorious day.

There Is A River & Peace Is Like A River

3/14/2009 There is a River

I find myself in Bath, OH. Right across the highway is where Jesus came into my car and healed me that very day last year.
As I walk with you and talk with you, you discover more and more of Me and less and less of you. That is what I call My people that profess and confess Me as Lord to be doing. There is a season and time of prosperity for those that do and continue to seek Me. It is not for the faint-of-heart. For this is a clarion call to those that have truly given of their heart; mind; soul; body; and emotions to Me, Jesus, the King. As a king distributes and delegates power to a kingdom in the natural realm, I do the same not only in the physical realm, also, the spiritual realm.

“There is a river that flows from deep within. And there is a fountain that free’s the soul from sin. So come to this water, there is a vast supply and there is a river that never shall run dry.”
The above words are sung by Mary Alessi. As you drink of this water and submerge yourself into it, it will supply; supply; supply. You have not because you ask not. People ask for goofy things, things that are temporal. Ask for a drink of the living water and all will be supplied. Search your hearts to see if that is where your true heart is, in the asking of stuff and not of the love of Christ. Once you catch the vision of this there will never be a need to thirst again. I speak to My people when they are with Me in daily communion and not in transgression. So many think that My job is to just keep giving things out. My job is to woo you into the presence of the Lord. Entering with reverent fear.

Esther knew that there was protocol when she entered the king’s chambers. So many lack this reverence for the Lord. There is a true remnant that has caught the vision and are being raised up to teach the people of this saith the Lord of Hosts. When My people rise up to their positions, the enemy will then be a footstool for the triumphant overcomer to place their feet upon. At this point, there will not even be a need to exert any pressure or weight to trample the enemy. He is then under your feet and not out of control saith the Lord.

April 23, 2009 Peace Like A River

“I’ve got peace like a river in my soul.” Those are the words I am hearing from the song sung by Carman. I stepped out into my old nature today and let words shared with me today try to thrust me back into my old nature. I don’t know why this took place.
I release all of this to you tonight Lord. Thank you for reminding me to lie on the floor and seek you with worship music on. I have a lot to deal with right now. Let me live each day to its fullest, reach, and touch all that you call me forth to be in front of them. I walk with you, I talk with you, and I know who you are and that I am your beloved. I feel the burden being lifted off me and I feel as though I can breathe again. As I approach this next phase of the purpose that you have called forth in my life, I wait with expectation and wonderment of what is just upon the horizon.

In the early morning before the sun begins to appear on the horizon you see darkness with the twinkling of stars and the moon light if the sky allows you access to it. Right at that very moment as the first sighting of the sun appears on the horizon something changes in the atmosphere. Hope arises that soon there will be light. Light to light your path and allow you to maneuver around freely without the assistance of a lantern. The same is true when it is paralleled with the person that is in utter darkness and they are around a person filled with the light of Christ. It is most powerful when that person is around a person bathed in the light that causes them to want what that person has. They will come around a little more frequently because they know there is something soothing/calming to them when they are with that person. They are able to experience via the telephone but it is much more magnified in person. The person bathed in the light of Christ can speak forth truths to that person and even discern things in that person’s life. There are angels strategically placed to assist in getting that person to the place where they can receive the Gospel truth and turn their heart from darkness and hidden secrets to the love of Christ to wash away their sins and make them whole.

When one is placed in your life for the above purpose, it is best to seek the Lord as to determine what is the plan of action for this person’s life and situation. Never walk out in this in your own strength for that is dangerous. Seek, Seek, Seek the Lord while you still can for one day soon there will be those scrambling to seek Him to find out that He already came to claim His people and they were left behind. Trust and obey for it truly is the only way saith the Lord of Hosts.

HOPE

3/18/09 HOPE Writing

Healing
Oppressed
People
Enlighten

Romans 15:4 of God’s Word translation Bible states “Everything written long ago was written to teach us so that we would have confidence through the endurance and encouragement which the Scriptures give us.” Romans 15:13 states “May God, the source of hope, fill you with joy and peace through your faith in him. Then you will overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.”

As a person is weighed down by oppression, which comes upon them through the enemy, they are then hindered from receiving the fullness of the word of God. The fullness is equated to being enlightened. As a person decides to let go of the control that the enemy has on them a controlling cord in the spirit is then severed. It can only be completed by a heart that truly repents. They choose to close the door(s) that was opened to allow this oppression to come upon them. When things in life seem to be a bit much to bear that is when a person’s guard is let down and they are wide open for attack. In the moments that lead up to this, a person that examines the days, weeks and even months that led to this will discover that they were in a state of being tired or run down with the burdens of life. Then the enemy comes in like the thief he is known to be and does what he does best, to rob, kill, and destroy. In this instance, he steals the joy from that person and we all know that “The joy of the Lord is my strength.” If he can get your joy then he has you right where he wants you.

When your joy and peace are depleted how can you please God with faith in Him? The overflow you had with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit is now depleted. Be very cautious in these times upon us for if the enemy can oppress then he has accomplished what he set out for, another wounded, powerless believer that’s faith has been “on hold.” He knows the power of walking in faith because the believer is able to see and call forth things as though they are in the natural as he speaks them forth in the spirit to then manifest in the natural realm. In these times in which we walk in it is very important to get proper rest in the natural and in the presence of God. As the person’s oppression is removed, the veil is then lifted and truth appears to that person again. They are able to be enlightened with the word of God and to advance forward to make up for lost time.

People are searching for things that are not even in existence and they run around in a circle. I am being shown a dog that runs around in circles chasing his own tail. A repetitive exercise that benefits not, all it does is frustrate and run you down. Leaving you with the feeling of not achieving anything. Be very wise and sly to the tricks of the enemy. This is inclusive of the trickery that comes from so-called preachers that are preaching anything but the true truth of Scripture. They would prefer to preach/teach the watered down version of the Bible. That can put a trusting person in a very precarious position to open the door to oppression. Test the fruits that are coming forth from the preacher. If you allow a person to talk long enough you will hear his/her true heart. Do not let anyone cause you to doubt or fall from your salvation in Jesus. He died on the cross and rose from the dead three days later so you could be with him for all eternity. The only true way to salvation is through believing that he was born of the Virgin Mary, died on the cross and rose from the dead and the work was completed through him and that no man can boast of good works to get to heaven. A gift freely given to all that have an ear to hear and believe this in their heart and confess this with their voice. In that moment all of heaven rejoices and the persons name is recorded in the Lamb’s Book of Life. To me the greatest of all miracles, to take a sinner and wash them clean with the blood of Jesus and to be born clean with all sins from the past covered under the blood.

I Had A Second Brother That Died In A Boating Accident. His Body Was Never Recovered.

I had another brother beside the one that died a few years ago. He died when I was a senior in high school. He was closer to me in age than my older brother. He was heading to the Bahamas to do some work for a year and then return. He was suppose to get engaged and live happily ever after when he returned back home. He never did.
He was on a boat with six other people. There were seven people on the boat and they only had four life preservers. This took place somewhere around the Bermuda Triangle area. They lost their power/communication and a storm came in. There was a vessel that tried to throw them a tow line. Somehow the boat shattered and each one was scattered into the water. The only ones that were rescued were the four that had life preservers on. The three that did not have them, they never recovered their bodies. We do have the coast guard reports. This all took place on an Easter weekend if my memory serves me correct. If one of the four survivors reads this and would like to add more information to it please do.
For some reason they thought my brother was from the Toledo area and they could not reach family. We found out by a small article in the newspaper that they were looking for his family. I will never forget that day, the shock we all experienced. I think a local newspaper came to the house to interview my mother. Since there was no body we had a memorial mass in which there were several hundred people that attended. The survivors told my mother that a relative gave my brother a small travel size bible and that he read from it to them when they started to experience trouble on the boat. My mother would get correspondence from people after his death of how my brother helped someone in one way or another.
I had a very vivid dream in which I was at the bottom of the ocean and I could see my brother and I was able to clearly see what he was wearing. We were both standing there facing each other but there was a glass partition between us. I hounded my mother so much about wanting to know what he was wearing when this accident happened. She asked one of the survivors and the very outfit that I saw him in the dream was what they said he was wearing. I remember going to college that Fall and I would be so hopeful that one day he would walk through the door of my college dorm and tell me he was rescued and was on an island somewhere and that he had amnesia, and then remembered again and came back home to us. It never happened. I guess I was just hopeful since there was no body to bury. In a situation like that there is always that ray of hope in the back of your mind.
My sister and I attended a Catholic all girls high school and they had a mass for us at school. They made and presented to us a banner
with the words on it "Dream deep for every dream precedes the goal." I used that very verse on my wedding invitations and the banner was a part of our marriage ceremony. There is a happy part of this story. I always wanted to dance with my brother on my wedding day. He died in the Spring and a few months prior to that my sister and I were participants in a Croatian Debutante Ball. Since there were two of us being presented at the same time we needed someone to dance with one of us when the Father's danced with their daughters. Guess who that other person was? You guessed right if you were thinking it was my brother. He was an extremely handsome young man that was tall with dark hair and the most beautiful shade of brown eyes. He had a great sense of humor. My sister and I did get our fair share of teasing from him when we were younger. He was in a formal tuxedo and he did dance with me in my beautiful, white dress. I shared all of that with you to let you know that even though things have happened in my life I still live a life of peace and I find that one of my gifts is to encourage people. My peace comes from the Lord. I feel led by the Holy Spirit to include a writing that has already appeared prior to this writing. I wish that I could show the simple sketch that I did to describe this waterfall when I wrote this. There were different shades of blue and green and deeper blue.

7/20/1996

I was in prayer and as I opened my eyes the Lord guided me to place the word “trust” into my electronic dictionary. The definition given…firm reliance; confident belief; faith. So many times throughout the past week the word “trust” keeps coming to me. That is all we can do is trust in the Lord. He is the only thing that is ever constant in the crazy and mixed-up world of ours.
I was guided to draw a waterfall that flows into a pond. Not a pond with ripples from the waterfall, oh no, a pond that is as calm as the peace that comes from a very restful night. ‘I can give this to all My children just come to Me with open hearts and stretch your arms out. I am there for you dear ones I am there for you. It does not matter what you have done with your lives or the lives of your family and friends in the past. Open your heart to Me so I may cleanse and heal you, for each one of you is ever precious to Me. My Father the Almighty created you and what He creates is of beauty and love. Trust in Me for I am the true way to eternal life and paradise. I want all of My flock to be able to sing praise and give honor and glory to My Father. Know that He sends many angels onto the earth to help the souls that long for Him. These angels come in several forms. Some are of a spiritual nature and some are of a physical nature. Placed at that very moment in your life when you reach out and need them the most. Accept their helping hand and sing praise to My Father for He does this out of total love for all.
Some choose to turn away from My Father and for this, there is to be much suffering in this world. Fear not those that believe for you shall inherit the earth. You shall walk amongst the angels and saints and experience the living presence of the Lord. May all this day be blessed with much love, happiness, and peace. I shine My love down upon all those that “trust”, do not trust, and those that are about to trust.”

You Don't Always Have To Be The Blesser, It Really Is OK To Be The Receiver Of A Blessing

During the process of going through my divorce a female boss and I went to lunch one day. During our lunch she presented to me $50.00 that she wanted to give to me. I was always the giver of gifts and with things being a little tight then I was not able to function in that capacity. I refused it and told her that I could not receive it. In that moment she taught me the most valuable lesson that I always use and remember to this very day. This is what she told me "If I do not receive this blessing from her she then becomes disobedient to the Holy Spirit because He is the one that prompted her to bless me in that manner." She took it one step further and this is what caught my attention. She then told me that if she does not follow through with the blessing and me receiving the blessing I will then stop her blessing. That hit me hard. So, the next time someone wants to bless you do not be hard headed and not receive the blessing.

Going through the divorce really taught me to be humble in so many respects. I learned to give other gifts to people that were not necessarily of high monetary value. Like a smile to one in need; a hug; a word of encouragement; a notecard sent at the very right time to lift up a persons life. A word that they were seeking from the Lord about a situation and because you are obedient to the prompting of the Holy Spirit they receive it on the very day that they were crying out to the Lord for an answer. I do give physical gifts now but my most cherished gifts of all are the ones in which I make or create something and then bless the person. Floral arrangements; bracelets; meals; desserts (especially cheesecakes for whatever reason this seems to be the most requested of me at family gatherings.) The list can go on and on and on. I said all of that to drive home the point. If I can learn to be the receiver of gifts and not always the giver of gifts, so can you. It really is fun. Don't get me wrong it is also fun to see the expression on the face of someone when you bless them with a gift of monetary value. It is just as rewarding to wipe the tear from the face of a person that has tears because of the kindness you just extended toward them.

8/31/1996

The Lord gave me words of encouragement this day. I told Him of all of the heaviness in my heart and this is what He showed me. A torpedo leaving a submarine. He showed me how fast it goes through the water. He shared with me that all has been taken care of and it will all happen rapidly like the speed of the torpedo. He then showed me a sun like this with light just coming from everywhere, a bright light. After things fall into place the light shall come. I will be immersed in this light and then He showed me lips speaking. I will then go forth and speak the good news to all. Praises again go to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit all in one united.
I am being shown a beautiful and vibrant purple iris. This is pleasing to my eyes and my senses. Spring has arrived and new growth always comes with the bloom of the iris. This new birth is waiting for all. I am now being shown a field abundant with wheat gently flowing in this field. There are birds singing and a gentle breeze is in the air. The words of the song I am hearing “Oh come all yea faithful, joyful and triumphant; oh come yea oh come yea to Bethlehem.”
There is so much abundance I wish to bestow upon you My children. Open the heart, rejoice in salvation and let Me cast upon you the gifts that I choose for each and everyone that walks the earth. My gifts that I lavish upon you are not always of worldly delights. My gifts are given freely to all who accept. Given in love, to be used in love, so you will attain eternal happiness and peace. Let them flow, let them flow, again I say let them flow.
For in receiving the gift(s) you must go forth into the world and use the gift(s) bestowed upon you. All acts must come from and be centered around the love that flows from your heart. For that is where I reign, in the deepest part of your soul. Where something or someone touches one, which moves you in your heart that at times tears come to the eyes and flow. That My child is how I, I being Christ Jesus, touch the heart. Never fear when you are doing My work, for it is done from and in love. Blessings upon all who hear this word, open their hearts and lives to Me, and act upon the words spoken this day.
This day started with the Holy Spirit directing me to go to church for confession with a particular priest. As I was waiting in line, the Holy Spirit revealed to me how Father was to receive the Lord’s words. I was to ask him to close his eyes and put his hands with his palms going upward to receive the words that the Lord gave to me to give to him. I read the journal entry and he received the words. This was a dear priest that was placed in my life to try and instruct me with what the Holy Spirit was doing in and through my life. This is the priest that sought another priest to be a spiritual director in my life. I would share with this priest the things that the Holy Spirit would show and speak to me through writings and bleeps. I do not know of any other way to describe the images other than using the word “bleep.” For that is what would happen. The image would come in a bleep and then the explanation of the image always followed it.

Creativity Led To Salvation At A Local Nursing Home Today

I just wrote about salvation and accepting Jesus into your heart yesterday. Today, I will share with you a writing on creativity. This writing released in me a creativity to create bracelets. I do not sell them. As the Holy Spirit leads me I create and bless a person with it. In our youth group at church I learned the ABC's of Salvation. I wrote it down and I tag the bracelet with a simple message:
ABC's of Salvation
Accept
Believe
Confess
I then plant that bracelet into their life as a seed for the Gospel to go forth. I had one of these bracelets in my purse for a few days now. The Holy Spirit prompted me to bless a roommate of a lady that I visit at a nursing home. Every time I visit my friend when I leave we usually sing the song "Let Me Call You Sweetheart." I know that is a song her roommate likes to sing. We then clap for her after we sing. I had the tag on the bracelet and I went to give it to her. I asked her if she had Jesus in her heart. I explained salvation to her and asked her if she believed that Jesus was born of the Virgin Mary and that he died on the cross and rose from the dead on the third day. She said yes. I asked her to repeat after me a prayer to invite Jesus into her heart. She did. When we were through I told her about how all of the angels in heaven rejoiced and listened to her say that very prayer. I told her the bracelet is for her and to celebrate the day she said this prayer. I wrote down today's date on the tag and gave it to my friend to hold onto for her. Thank you Lord for the free gift of salvation. A gift freely given so no man should boast. Holy Spirit seal the words upon her heart that were spoken today. Reveal yourself to her ever so clearly and bless her days. Also, bless my friend for her faithfulness in reading the word of God and sharing with the people around her. Bless all that she places her hands upon.

April 18, 2009 CREATIVITY

For the word Creativity the Holy Spirit is showing me to enter the words to represent the first letters in the word. Usually when I am given an explanation of a word I start with the first letter and proceed down. On this explanation I am to reverse the order:
Created
Royalty
Enriched
Are
That
Instilled
Values
In
Today
Yours

When the interpretation is presented, the reader must read the words in the opposite direction like this:
Yours
Today
In
Values
Instilled
That
Are
Enriched
Royalty
Created

In the first interpretation the letters that represent the word creativity are colored lavender. This belongs in the color family of purple. Purple represents royalty. The second color reflected is sky blue. When I use to create banners, I used a Banner Colors sheet with the explanation, meaning, and scripture behind the various colors. I am to incorporate the colors represented above at this point.

Purple: Royalty, Kingship. Honor. (Luke 16:19; Judges 8:26.) The mediatorship of Christ (primary red [Warfare. Blood Covering. If we warriors are covered in red, the Blood of Jesus, the enemy cannot see our wounds!] and primary blue come together to give us purple.)

Since the color represented (sky blue) for the letters written in the opposite direction is not listed on the sheet. I am going to combine two colors, blue and light blue.

Blue: Grace. Hope, The heavenlies of the Holy Spirit. The divinity of Christ. Remembrance of God’s Commands. (Numbers 15:38-39.)

Light Blue: Grace. Mercy. River of Life. (Psalms 19:1.)

The three Scriptures that are used are Judges 8:26, which will be the God’s Word interpretation; Numbers 15:38-39, which will have The King James Version; and Psalms 19:1, which will be the God’s Word interpretation.

“The gold earrings Gideon had asked for weighed 40 pounds. This did not include the half-moon ornaments, the earrings, the purple clothes worn by the kings of Midian, and the chains from their camels’ necks.”

“Speak unto the children of Israel, and bid them that they make them fringes in the borders of their garments throughout their generations, and that they put upon the fringe of the borders a ribband of blue: And it shall be unto you for a fringe, that ye may look upon it, and remember all the commandments of the Lord, and do them; and that ye seek not after your own heart and your own eyes, after which ye use to go awhoring.”

“The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky displays what his hands have made.”

As time marches on and onward, the creativity of the Father is released through the Holy Spirit onto the people that are postured to receive. There is a condition to the one that receives at this time, as you know it. They must be walking upright with the Lord following the commandments. I examine their heart to see if it pants after Me, Me being Christ Jesus. Man looks at outward appearances such as are the nails finely manicured and clean or are the shoes polished. I look at the transparency of the person’s heart. Is it pure, clean, and longing to move forward in the plans and calling I have pre-destined them to fulfill? When I can find a heart that is rightfully prepared to move forward that is when I download their spirit and mind with the creative ideas to flow in. To advance not only them but also the kingdom of God. I am not looking for a poor and weak church or remnant of people. I am looking for a rich and strong church and remnant of people.

It takes finances in your economy to take the Gospel forward. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I already see it created in the finished mode. That is why the true explanation of the above word is to be read in the reverse of the letters of the word. It was already spoken and into existence. Once the creative ideas and strategies are released into this group of people the rest will just flow into place. Do not fret or worry over the economy or your circumstances. Your job is to keep your heart pure and clean before Me and My Father. I will take care of the rest. A pure heart is a heart that easily forgives others that have wronged you or your family. A pure heart seeks after the heart of God and the word of God. Keeping the commandments. Even if a person thinks of lust in his heart it is as though he acted in the act of adultery. It is very important to keep your thoughts captive now and do not let the enemy deluge you and bombard you with his thoughts to cloud your judgment and plant a seed of doubt in your heart. It pleases My Father when His people walk in faith.

There is a group of people that were born with an inward witness and longing to walk in royalty. They feel at ease when they are amongst the rich and famous and know that they are called to be there also. I have instilled this in them and they are being raised up to be put into places and to be the voice of My Father to reach this group of people that search for Me but seek worldly things because they do not know how to attain true happiness and peace through Jesus. As I care for the widow and the orphaned, I also care for the affluent. I shed My blood for all to have eternal peace with Me. Man and the church have told you that it is godly to be miserly and humbling to be poor. That is not so. I came to set the captives free and to walk and fulfill what the Our Father prayer states:

Our Father who art in heaven hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us and lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom the power and the glory now and forever and ever and ever and ever Amen.

Poverty, sickness, and disease do not exist in heaven. If you faithfully pray and believe with faith of the above prayer to My Father then all of your needs are met. Rest in that. It is not some complicated formula, it is the simple act of faith with expected anticipation coupled together. Enthusiasm is nothing more or less than faith in action (that quote came from a piece of artwork I have.) I have two stepping-stones outside that state “Believe that faith can move mountains.”& “Love one another with grace and gentleness.” I am reminded of the meaning of grace:

As a side note, after completing this writing the Holy Spirit led me to take my strand of pearls (that my Father purchased for me years ago in Hawaii) that needed to be re-strung and I went to Michaels. A very kind and talented young woman assisted me with getting the proper string to use and a beautiful Swarovski crystal toggle. I went home and re-strung the pearls with the guidance of the Holy Spirit and the girl’s words. I then blessed my mother with them. She loves them. I went to Jo-Ann Fabrics on Monday and a woman showed me how to re-string a bracelet that the toggle broke off. Several times my mother or I when in Atlanta have to take the bracelet to the store that created it and they re-string it for me. I then re-strung that bracelet on Monday and added a Swarovski crystal to that. From those two acts of faith, I have continued to create several bracelets. People have told me to sell them. I told them they are not for sale but I am to bless people with them and use them as a seed planted for the Gospel to go forward. At the youth church service on April 22, 2009, Pastor Josh taught the youth (pre-teen and teen) the ABC’s of Salvation:
Accept
Believe
Confess
That is the tag that I attach to the bracelet that I bless someone with.
Holy Spirit you are so awesome and you never cease to amaze me with your creativity. Thank you for flowing through me.

I Lost A Big Portion Of My Father's Inheritance When I Went Through With My Divorce

My Father threatened me that if I went through with my divorce he would not be able to leave property, etc. to me in his will when he died. He said something to the effect "I cannot leave this to you since you will no longer be a family nucleus (husband, wife, children.) He even sent me on a pilgrimage to Medjugore to change my mind about the divorce. I was actually scheduled to go on a trip to Israel at first and it fell through. He felt bad about that so he sent me to this destination and he added on a few days in Rome. This was the very trip that just confirmed that I was going to go through with the divorce when I got back home.

I packed a sweatshirt with the Vermilion logo on it. The day I was leaving to head back home the Holy Spirit prompted me to wear it on the flight back home. I did. I was in the Rome airport waiting to get on the plane and a woman approached me just because of the logo on the sweatshirt. We struck up a conversation and she ministered to me about 45 minutes on the plane. Let me include my journal writing for that day, 11-17-94:

"I am sitting at the airport waiting to board the plane for home and a beautiful woman recognized my V sweatshirt and we struck up a conversation. She is most spiritual like myself (you did tell me that I would meet someone on this trip from that area just by wearing the sweatshirt.) You placed her into my life to speak with me and give me comfort for I know that there will be much sorrow and pain awaiting me at home. You sent me on this journey as a rest before the storm."

I was teamed up with a woman from the Philippine's as my roommate on this pilgrimage. I am going to incorporate my writing on 11-12-94 in reference to her. I have been to Yugoslavia before and I was intrigued with a city called Mostar in which people dive off of a bridge into the water there and I kept being drawn to going back there on this trip. This is what happened... "I am most thankful for my dear roommate Laura, she is most wise. I had a very strong desire to go to Mostar all week long. She told me just the other day 'No don't go what if I was somewhere there and something happened, my family would be without me.' she was right. Yesterday I was listening to Croatian radio and I heard the word "Mostar" during the news. I asked the tour guide this morning if something happened there. Someone set off a grenade by the Franciscan monastery, children, beautiful children were there for catechism classes. One child was killed there and another two children were taken to the hospital and died later. God bless their souls their sweet innocent souls. They were there learning of Christ and His love. Their poor families what an incredible loss, a heaviness in their hearts. Be with them all and let peace come to these beautiful, giving, loving people of this country. They give so much of themselves. And this I pray." I forgot to mention this, I was there during the Bosnian War. Even though the country was war torn I never ever felt scared. I met many wives, daughters, nieces of soldiers that were away from home fighting in the war. They would run the gift shops and businesses while their loved ones were away at war. People laughed at me when I began to start collecting and saving my Estee Lauder cosmetic samples to take on this trip to give away to the women. They would say to me things like "They are in a war why would you bring to them makeup?" Guess what, every sample that I gave to the women was greatly received by them. I wanted to just bless them and they would not let me leave their shop without blessing me. I would say no to them and they would tell me they wanted to give me something back. I didn't want to insult them so I accepted their gifts. God loves to bless His people if they would just be open to giving to others.



Back to my inheritance. My Father made good on his threat. When he died all that was suppose to go to me prior to my divorce he re-directed to my two uncles and a cousin. If I remember correctly it was a very nice condo in Bratenahl along with two boat slips at the Shoreby Club along with a few condos in downtown Cleveland. I came across a scripture in the bible and on occasion I remind the Lord that this scripture pertains to my sister and myself and I expect what was taken from us to come back to us even if it is in another form than the original property that was taken from me.
Numbers 27:8-11 "Tell the Israelites: If a man dies and leaves no sons, turn his property over to his daughters. If he has no daughters, give his property to his brothers. If he has no brothers, give his property to his uncle's on his father's side of the family. If he has no uncles, give his property to the nearest relative in his family, and that relative will take possession of it."
My Father had a generous heart to others. He bequeathed rental properties to a few of his tenants, and to a girlfriend and her parents. My Father would always say that he was going to leave money to the church when he died. He was very generous to different areas of the Catholic Church. I never begrudged them for receiving money he wanted to leave to them. Actually, when my sister and I contested the will there was a charitable organization that was willing to give up some portion of their inheritance to allow us to settle. It was done under the pretense that they were not revealed to us. I want to publicly thank that organization.

There is a really good ending to this story. I will now include my writing about how I testified at my Father's funeral mass and offered salvation to the people that attended and he himself received salvation 3 weeks before he died.

Dad’s Funeral Mass, October 6, 1999, he died October 3, 1999

Since my sister and I were not practicing Catholics when my Father went to be with the Lord we were only able to select the Scriptures to be read at his funeral mass, we were not allowed to read them at the mass. I was allowed to speak to the people about my Fathers faith. When I went onto the altar, If I remember correctly, there were seven or eight priests and a deacon or two. I was the only woman on the altar. I asked the Holy Spirit to speak through me. I actually wrote the words in advance and read them to the people.

My Father was a man that had faith and I’d like to share with you a bit of this faith.
On Tuesday, September 21, 1999, I went to the hospitals Intensive Care Unit at Euclid General Hospital with my bible. My Father was sleeping a lot. He was restless the night before.
I prayed silently while I was there. As I was praying, the Holy Spirit directed me to the blessing in Numbers 6: 24-26. I then got up from my chair and I placed my hand upon my Fathers left hand and I spoke the blessing out loud- That as Moses prayed over the people I pray over you Dad. “Dad the Lord bless you and keep you, Dad the Lord make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you. Dad the Lord lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace.”
As I sat in the chair, before a priest came in the room the Lord directed me to read Psalms 3. The bible was open as the priest walked in the room. He commented that I was reading the word and I shared with him that it's the only word and it's my strength. Father went to my Father and prayed for him. I joined Father at the bed and prayed with him. I prayed that peace and rest come to Dad, only a peace that comes from God placing His arms around him.
There was no coincidence that the Lord started me with praying a blessing over my father and as the day continued, Psalm 3, for Psalm 3’s ending verse is this, “Salvation belongs to the Lord, your blessing is upon your people.”
When I read that, I thought it was a confirmation to me that I heard and obeyed the Lord when He told me to speak a blessing over my father.
Many times, I am naïve like a child; I only understood the part that spoke of the blessing upon your people. How the Lord always has a better plan far greater than we could ever imagine. As I look back on this, the Lord was preparing me to let me know that salvation would also be for my father.
I went to the hospital the next day and I worked on a banner that I was making while I was waiting for my father to come back from a procedure that they were performing on him.
He came back to his room at 12 noon. It was 12:15 pm when I went to his bed and told him I was there and that I loved him and Jesus loved him.
My father then said “FIND ME JESUS.” I then repeated back to him what he just said and I asked him if he just said it. He nodded his head yes and the Holy Spirit directed me to have my father speak these words, “Jesus be in my heart.” He spoke the words and then I told him to have Jesus “forgive my sins.”
I sat down by his bedside and at 12:30 pm, the Holy Spirit had me speak aloud these words, “Dad when you asked Jesus into your heart today at 12:15 pm on September 22, your name was recorded into the Lamb’s Book of Life and all of the angels in heaven rejoiced when you gave your life to Jesus.”
There is more to this testimony, one year ago to the very date, September 22, 1998, my brother dropped dead on a sidewalk on E. 185th Street. As I came to the hospital, I drove past where he died, at the end of E. 185th Street sits the hospital where my father received life in Jesus Hallelujah.
Thank you Lord you knew all along the day and time and how he would accept Jesus. You tried to prepare me the day before with Psalm 3:8 “Salvation belongs to the Lord.”
After my father did this, there was a time that he kept calling out the name of Jesus and said, “I hope Kimberly is right.” I then re-assured him that the Bible states that whoever calls upon the name of Jesus shall be saved.
If your heart is stirred with what I just shared with you, in a moment of silence I extend an invite to you to ask Jesus into your heart……………………………………………… I paused for a moment and then spoke these words, “Holy Spirit seal the words that were spoken into the hearts of the people that asked Jesus into their hearts. Amen.”

A side note: There is more to this story. The day or two before my father went to be with the Lord I struck up a brief friendship with an elderly woman across the hall from my Father’s room. I proceeded to pray and speak the blessing over her life from Psalm 3. As the family was sitting around my fathers lifeless body (in the natural) waiting for my sister to arrive. The Holy Spirit directed me to go across the hall to Frieda’s room it was now her time to receive salvation. She spoke the prayer of salvation. Even in my father’s death, there was eternal life that flowed forth that very day. I believe in my heart that the Holy Spirit set that up so my father could now truly experience the rejoicing in heaven of a person giving their heart to the Lord, because that is exactly where he was now.

If anything that I shared with you today has touched your heart, I now offer that same opportunity to you to invite Jesus into your heart. Romans 10:9 states "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved."
Admit you are a sinner. Be willing to turn from sin. Believe that Jesus Christ died for you, was buried and rose from the dead. Through prayer, invite Jesus into your heart and your life to become your personal Saviour.
Pray this prayer: Lord Jesus I am a sinner, forgive my sin. I believe that Jesus was born of the Virgin Mary, died on the cross and rose from the dead. He shed his blood and died for me and for my sin. Cleanse me of my sin and cover it with your precious blood that you shed for me. Come into my heart and be the lord of my life. I am willing to turn from my sin and allow you to be the Lord of my Life.
If you prayed this prayer share this great news with someone and let them know you prayed a prayer of salvation and that you asked Jesus into you heart and life. Your life will never be the same (in a good sense.) Remember, the moment you said that prayer all of the angels in heaven rejoiced over you. When you think of that it is pretty amazing isn't it? I now pray the same prayer over you that I pray when I pray with someone in person to receive salvation. "Holy Spirit seal the words upon their heart that were spoken when they prayed for salvation."

JOY Cometh In The Morning

July 11, 2009 8:00AM Joy Cometh In The Morning

The words of a song ( I think it is by Ron Kenoly) keep resounding in my mind right now as I write this, “You turned my mourning into dancing again, you’ve lifted my sorrow. I can’t keep silent for the joy of the Lord has come.” Nehemiah 8:10 states “For the joy of the Lord is your strength.” Jeremiah 31:13 also states, “For I will turn their mourning into joy, and will comfort them, and make them rejoice from their sorrow.”
I cannot remember who it was that shared this with me what the letters of JOY stand for. Thank you Holy Spirit for bringing this to my remembrance:
Jesus
Others
Yourself
That is what JOY stands for. Just because a person goes through trials and tribulations does not mean that they choose to give up the power behind the Joy that has been placed in their heart by Jesus. That joy is there to minister to others and I find that through ministering to others somehow I am blessed. I am not quite sure how it works but I know one thing, God has been faithful and He will continue to be faithful to me.

When my Father went to be with the Lord his estate/will was a challenge. My sister and I contested it. We did not even have the right to go through my Father’s belongings and select items that we would have liked to remember him by. I did put in a request of a few items and it amounted to a small box full. I did fight for one thing and I did get it. My Father had personal license plates that stated “JOY.” I received the right to purchase them for my car. I wanted them for a witness because I truly do have the joy of the Lord and He is my strength. I kept them for probably over a year or so and then I released them. I attended a large church at the time and do you know how many times people would call me Joy? I would say my name is Kimberly. People would assume that was my name because of the license plate. I thought I purchased them as a tool to witness until the Holy Spirit arrested my heart on this one. He questioned me as to where the strength comes from in reference to the Joy. He reminded me that it does not come from the license plate but it comes from the Lord. Do not put my faith in the license plate that announces joy but put my faith in Him. After that, I released the plates and went back to regular license plates. It is not a bad thing when the Holy Spirit brings correction in your life it really is a good thing. Maybe He was able to see my heart and saw that they were purchased as a conquest of something from my Fathers estate that I was able to control? I don’t know, that is just my guess. The main thing that really counted was that I was able to hear the voice and follow the instruction. When I state that I hear the voice, it is not some loud sound. I can only explain it as a gentle guiding within me.

As people struggle with things in their lives, some they have control over and others they don’t, they cannot give up the joy that is in their heart. The joy is there to reach out to others in that persons time of need. Even in the midst of a struggle or trial that is the opportunity to reach out to as many people as you can. You truly will derive strength in it. The key to following this is to hear the small, still voice of the Holy Spirit directing you as to where to reach out. If you do not follow His direction, you will just be chasing after rainbows and pots of gold so to speak. Do you ever find the actual beginning and end of that rainbow when it appears in the sky? Even if you physically started at the beginning point of the rainbow and physically you were able to get to the other end of it, by the time you attempted to get there it would already be gone from the sky. That is where you can lose that strength that is in the joy of the Lord. Running around in your own strength and trying to make things happen of your own free will and your time frame. Let it go and rest in knowing that God is in control and it is much better to let Him work it out in His timing. So many times people want it “now” and if they had waited a few more minutes, hours, or even days what a triumph would have come to them. What about the faith of the elders that went before us? They are there in the bible to remind us of how God worked in a mighty way on their behalf in His timing.

I had to pause for a while. I heard a storm coming in. I usually would go to the lake and watch it come in. Not today, I went walking in it. As I started out it was a gentle rain and by the time I got to the open road where the fields are on both sides the hard rain came down. I got soaked even though I had an umbrella, with the wind and the rain coming at once. By the time I was heading back home the gentle rain came again. It showed me that in a storm we can choose to observe it in a safe and comfortable atmosphere like a car at the lake. Other times it is OK to go out into the storm and walk in the midst of it and actually walk through it. In either instance the final result is the rain lets up and the gentle rain comes behind the storm. It was actually quite refreshing to let the rain fall upon me even through the midst of the storm. When walking through a trial it is OK to have mourning and tears because joy does come following it. I am by far not a bible scholar. I do know stories and verses in the bible I just do not know actually the book and verse per say. I probably can distinguish between it being in the new or old testament’s. I keep hearing the words “weeping may endureth for a night but joy cometh in the morning.”
