Treasure In Your Heart What The Lord Reveals/Shows To You In The Thick Of Worship


It was yesterday and the presence of the Lord was very evident to me it started in worship and remained throughout the preaching. It was near the end that the Lord gave to me one of those "bleeps," it is an instant vision of what is to come forth. I am not at liberty to reveal this to you at this time for I know I am to tuck this in my heart for when the moment is right. I came home and rested a short period of time. For you see, when the Lord's touch is upon you it truly does remove some of your own natural energy source from you physically. Our natural earthly body is not created to withstand the true presence of the Lord and that is why one can become drained so to speak.
I spent the weekend viewing three movies. Jane Austen's Persuasion (this was a BBC production); The Importance of Being Earnest and Becoming Jane (Jane Austen's story.) The prior two mentioned have happy endings, the third a not so happy ending in reference to a happy romance ending. This is what I gleaned from all of this. There was a line in the story about the life of Jane Austen where someone asked her what she wrote about in her novels. She responded that she wrote from the heart. I like that answer because I can relate to that for that is how I write. It all stems from my heart and that truly is where Jesus resides. I wonder if she was a born again Christian? I will find out one day when we are in heaven. I would so much so like to see her there for I will have many questions to place before her. She had a choice to make in her life in reference to the man she loved. She chose to not move forward with him. In the end the fears that she had as being the reason she chose to not go with him ended up being false. For he did become a success and he did indeed marry another.
I am being reminded of the dream I had in which I shared with you about the choice I had to make in the dream of either going up the stairs and knocking on the white door and to only find that there were gifts awaiting me behind the door. Remember, I chose to go down the stairs and out the door and then I was robbed. You see, I know what the outcome will be in my life for I chose to go up the stairs in my real life because the dream was a warning to me to not retreat and cower back. I can write the way I do because life experiences allow me this opportunity along with the incredible creativity that Holy Spirit has and allows to flow through me. There are times when I sit down to write and I think it will go like this and Holy Spirit begins to create within me and when it is completed I sometimes am in awe of what is produced. I could never, ever, ever in my own strength write like I do if it were not from divine revelation. Jane came from poverty and in the end she appeared to be amongst the finer circles that she walked with. What I like most was the fact that she was not pushy and arrogant and liked to be low key and not flaunt who she was, a gifted and talented writer. Why I am writing about this today I do not know but I do write.
I awoke from an awful, life-like dream at 2AM. In the dream there was something pulling very hard at my right arm a very strong force I attempted several times to speak out the name Jesus and all I could get out was Je, Je, Je and after several times the word Jesus finally came out. In the moment that I spoke His name the forces tugging and pulling at me broke. I then woke up and turned on the light and quietly said the name of Jesus and commanded it to leave, I then dispatched in the name of Jesus angels to flood my room and remove whatever was there. It left and I contemplated sleeping with the light on but I said no to that garbage idea. I know who I am in Christ and the power and authority in speaking the name of Jesus, I turned off the light and went right back to sleep. Let me tell you that spiritual warfare is real and you better be prepared in the natural for when it hits you in the spiritual you will only act in the capacity that you know of in the physical sense. You see, I was able to command it to go in the spiritual realm only because of the knowledge/authority I have tucked away in my heart came forth. Always be prepared in your life for you will begin to find out on your own that the closer you truly are to destiny that is when the attacks come from the enemy. Be prepared and fast, for that is what I did yesterday. You see, the enemy is not able to know exactly what your destiny is per say but he can sense that it is near and that is when he sends out his forces to try and scare you off. Do not allow him, for greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world.
I have a friend that operates in the prophetic and flows with prophetic artwork. She wrote me a note a few weeks ago in which the Lord showed her that I am bold in the Lord. As an exercise to encourage her to pick up the tools to start creating again her prophetic artwork, I requested of her to draw me a rough sketch of what the Lord showed to her. That is what you are seeing today. I seem to appear very intense if you look at the eyes when it comes to ministry. Ministry is not a game to me it is serious work. Just because one takes ministry seriously does not mean that there cannot be fun in their life. Look at my pictures or when I greet you I always seem to have a smile on my face. A person that smiles and smiles often with a sincere smile has a heart that is thankful. Laughter really is good for your heart and well being. Be blessed this very day and don't forget to smile and smile often today. Peace be still I speak to your storms today.

Mating Season Has Begun

It was very evident this morning as I walked that the mating season has begun for the Mallard ducks. Quite a novel idea that I seem to like and it came from the courting practice of the ducks. It appeared to be there were two male ducks courting the one female duck. Maybe that would work for humans. The two male ducks were very persistent and stayed right by the side of the female duck. They stayed right in step with her wherever she walked and they even stopped moving when she stopped too.
Hum, now what can we glean from this?
In pondering on this today I have come to this conclusion, it is wise for women to be courted by more than one man in her lifetime or season of singleness that she may find herself in right now. I liken it to this...when you see the most beautiful rose on a rose bush it may not have easy access to getting to the rose to cut it for your pleasure. You see, there may be a lot of thorns you have to go past and possibly get cut by the very thorns that you need to go through to get to the most perfect rose you have ever seen. That is how it should be for ladies waiting upon their husband that is sent forth from God. It really is OK to experience that and at times it may pierce your very heart, in the form of you being not patient and just trying to make it happen. Other times you experience the thorns because they truly were the rose in disguise but the thorn decided to not go forth and reveal them self as the rose. You know both men and women are created with a free will of their own. Sometimes they begin to see you as their rose and then something or someone else comes along to cause them to doubt. If that has happened to you take heart for God already knew that they would turn from you and be of great cheer for He is a God of order and restoration. He will be faithful and you will see your beautiful rose. It is the thorns amidst the rose that allow the woman to know that the rose is the true rose when it blooms before your very eyes. Do not disregard the thorns in life for it is the thorns that cut and sting and may even draw blood in the wound. The wound eventually heals and then the blood dries up and the scratch is now gone. No trace of the wound in a matter of days.
As it is mating season I am also reminded that it is also the time of year when things that have been dormant in the ground are starting to show signs of life again. There is something about Spring. Women fail to realize something. They see a man and assume that the man is aggressive in nature and when he chooses to approach you and start a conversation that it is just a natural thing for them to do. Maybe yes in some instances but in others it is not so. I shared with a friend of mine today that it may have taken everything just to muster up the courage to take the first step forward towards you. You see a strong, confident man before you speaking with you but you do not know if he was stepping out in faith and asking Holy Spirit to give him the strength and courage to do just that. So, I applaud men that are willing to step out in faith and trust the Lord. What I write about may be seen in a humorous way of portraying my thoughts but in the end it really is a serious matter. A matter of utmost importance. As much as a lady likes the attention of one or more gentlemen courting her it really is not created for the lady's benefit. For it is a good thing when a man finds a treasure in a wife. If you are a man it benefits you that she went through a few thorns along the way because she will recognize the rose when it has been cut and placed before her. Men you will also experience a few cuts and bruises but remember this, the bruise heals and there is no scar unless you choose to make it a scar and battle wound. Let the wounds heal and let her bloom before your very eyes. The wise woman and man will learn from their wounds and heal them before they attempt to move forward in love. What good is taking all of your rubbish from past experiences with you into your new relationship. No good at all it will just bring in with you an area in which there will be no room for the love of your beloved. Think of it like this...when you have a bad wound in the natural you do not just let it keep bleeding and do nothing to stop the blood do you? No you do not, you try to find help and assistance to stop the bleeding. Once the wound has been dressed properly it is now time for the healing process. Then one day you are able to remove the bandage and right before your very eyes you see that the wound is no longer there. Then, my friend and then alone is the time to advance and not before that time.
You may say to me what about the wound that left a physical scar on your body what about that. That is simple to answer, that is the reminder to yourself to not go there and step into that arena because you saw destruction when that wound was created. God really does give us lots of wisdom doesn't He? Proverbs 31: 1010-12 states, "Who can find a wife with a strong character? She is worth far more than jewels. Her husband trusts her with all his heart, and he does not lack anything good. She helps him and never harms him all the days of her life."

He Is With You, He Is With Me. Open Your Eyes To See His Hands, He Is With You

I shared with you the other day the words to a song by Mandisa entitled, He Is With You. Those are the very words to that very song that I woke with resounding in my mind today. Let me tell you again HE IS WITH YOU. I already ministered to a friend of mine this morning and as I ministered I was reminded to share with her how I saw Him with me in my adventures yesterday. This is how it went, I recognized several times yesterday that the hands of God were evident in my days journey. Did you recognize Jesus and His angels in your life yesterday? Think about it a moment and more than likely you will look back and see the hands of God too. You many ask me how did you see this. You see it by recognizing it was God that did it and then not being afraid to share that with others to build your testimony and in the midst of doing that you are truly bringing glory to God. Amen.
I was blessed when I saw something on TV about a company that can fix your windshield if you have a crack in it. I called the company and with them further checking it out I was able to have mine fixed with not having to pay a deductible at all. The insurance company waived the deductible so it cost me absolutely nothing. That was number one yesterday in seeing the hands of God. Then I arrive at work and this was the day that a really good friend of mine began to work there. We have been friends ever since college. I was blessed to speak with a person that throughout the conversation kept saying Praise The Lord. I knew enough that there must be a story behind this person giving praise to the Lord so I asked. How do you know a persons story if you do not ask questions? Sure enough, this person was a person that was healed of cancer. On this one not only was He with me He was also with her too. Then I was blessed with two leads given to me by my mother and both leads became fruitful before I left work at the end of the day. Then I saw the hands of God as I travelled home that night. As I was on the highway I remember driving in the snow and as I was driving past Bratenahl I went past a serious accident that was on the other side of the highway, never having the knowledge at the time of the seriousness of this accident until I watched the news to find out that someone was shot. Again, God is with me. For by the grace of God I drove past it and was in the right direction to not be caught in it or the traffic snare caused by it. I travel a bit further and just as I approached "Dead Man's Curve" (they really need to change the name of this people that travel this stretch of the highway are already cursed just by the mere title that has been given to it) I remember thinking to myself how clear the roads were at that point. God is with me. Again, I find out from the news that there was a terrible accident right there after I travelled that very stretch of road. I was perplexed to hear that because the road was clear when I travelled it. You do know that there are angels dispatched that work on our behalf right? There are, in case you have any doubts.
As I started out the day with the words of the song HE IS WITH YOU, I also read Jude and let me share with you Jude 20-25: "Dear friends use your most holy faith to grow. Pray with the Holy Spirit's help. Remain in God's love as you look for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to give you eternal life. Show mercy to those who have doubts. Save others by snatching them from the fire of hell. Show mercy to others, even though you are afraid that you might be stained by their sinful lives. God can guard you so that you don't fall and so that you can be full of joy as you stand in his glorious presence without fault. Before time began, now and for eternity glory, majesty, power, and authority belong to the only God, our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen."
If you would like to have secure peace in knowing that if you should take your last breath today that you will be in heaven for eternity and not hell then let me share a prayer with you. Let me share this with you first, please understand that once you take your last breath on earth there are only two choices of where you will spend eternity, not three. I was raised up believing that there is a third place that people go and try to work via prayers said by others on their behalf to attain heaven one day. That place is known as purgatory. Purgatory does not exist and that is not a third option offered to you. Two choices heaven or hell which do you choose?
I trust that you will choose heaven. If you choose heaven then please allow me the honor to lead you in a prayer so that we will be with God forever. Speak this prayer...Father in the name of Jesus I ask you to cleanse me of my sins, for I am a sinner and no matter what I do as good works will not be enough for me to work my way into heaven. I trust and believe that Jesus came to this earth born of a virgin. He died on the cross and rose from the dead on the third day. I realize that there have been choices I made in my life based on the knowledge I had at the time the decision was made. Forgive me of the not so good choices I made. From this point forward I thank you that I can invite you into my heart to be my savior and king. Guide me in all my endeavors and teach me your ways to live. Show me my destiny and then guide me to fulfill it. I rejoice that when you come again I will not be cast into hell but I will be with you for eternity. Thank you Jesus for loving me that you gave your life for me so I can be with you forever. Use me in my life to reach out to others within my circle of family and friends and within my community and work arena. Change my hardened heart to a heart that has love for you and for others. In Jesus name I pray this. Amen.

Wow I Find Myself At My Blog Page 3 Times Today Sharing.

This is what I wrote almost 14 years ago.

10/15/1996

Before I read Scripture this day there was an envelope in the back of my bible that I looked at. It was from my father, dated October 18, 1978. Placed inside the envelope, was a branch from an olive tree that was over 3,000 years old, from The Garden of Gethsemane.
About a year or so ago I was guided to give a piece of the branch to a woman to assist her with her healing/deliverance ministry. This woman would pray over me at church during the monthly healing service. Many times in front of the tabernacle, the Lord allowed me to rest in the spirit.
There are four pieces of the branch left. On this day, I was guided to place the four pieces into my bottle of scented anointing oil. The oil was scented with frankincense and myrrh.
There are days when I know not who or why I place the oil onto a finger and make the sign of the cross on both palms of my hands and forehead. Always one comes into my life that day that the Lord touches. Either through prayer, or words spoken from the Holy Spirit through me to the one in need. On occasion the Holy Spirit guides me to place the oil in the sign of the cross onto the person. I let the Holy Spirit guide me as to where the person needs the peace and healing that only comes from the Holy Spirit. As I do this words and images come into my mind. There is no meaning of these words for me personally, I just share them with the one I am led to that day. Always when words are exchanged after the words are given to the person (from the Holy Spirit) a confirmation is given to me. Explaining what the particular words and images meant in that persons life. On occasion, a person will share with me that no one but the Lord knew the particular image or words shared. It was something that they struggled with in their life and only shared it with the Lord.
I truly love my calling, for that is exactly what it is. I am very open to the Holy Spirit. As I am called upon I respond with an open heart and mind. There are days when I wake up and think I am going to do this, this, and this. How the day changes from my initial thoughts. For there is someone, that is reaching out to the Lord in their moment of need. The Holy Spirit guides me onto their path, so He can do great works in their life.
Ministry work is being open to the calling and promptings of the Holy Spirit. It is a giving up of your own will to put aside your thoughts and opinions to let the Holy Spirit flow through you to get to the one in need.

These Words Will Bring Comfort To You, Trust Is Stronger Than Hope

For the last several days the words from two songs have brought encouragement to me and I share them with you this day because I trust they will do the same for you. As you know by now, music ministers to me a lot. The words of the two songs come from an artist named Mandisa, and her CD is titled, Freedom.

LEAVE IT IN THE VALLEY
{Psalm 23:4, John 16:33)
"I got your message on the phone so tell me what's going on? You say your day started so great and then it went so wrong No one ever plans for the bad days, do they, no but I am here if you're needing a friend.
Hey don't give up tonight I know you're going through the valley, but you're gonna make it out alright Hey, tell your troubles goodbye go on and leave it in the valley, leave it in the valley tonight.
So you think He don't know what He's doing you think He ain't by your side well, God knows when you're broken and He's loving you He's holding you so, so tight.
So let the rain fall He'll be standing there getting wet with you you might get cold but you won't be there alone.
And when you're hanging by a thread hold on you know the darkest part is right before the dawn. So when your fear has worn you out feels like the sky is on the ground He ain't gonna let you down He'll never let you down."

VICTORIOUS
(Exodus 3, Exodus 14:21-22, 1 Samuel 17, John 11:38-44, Matthew 14:13-21, Matthew 14:22-25, Romans 15:4)
"If you could send a burning bush to Moses lead Your people home through a parted sea give a boy the strength to defeat Goliath I know You will always take care of me.
With You on my side, I am victorious with You on my side, I've got nothing to fear So I can walk through this valley with confidence knowing You will deliver me.
If You could raise the dead bones of Lazarus if You could feed five-thousand with a couple fish and a loaf of bread and in the middle of a stormy night You can walk on water I know, I know, I know no thing's out of Your hands.
If You could pull me out of my sin and give me new life within and keep all Your promises and Your word is true then I don't have to be afraid I know this is the day You made so no matter what comes my way"

As I was finishing up this Holy Spirit prompted me to add the words of a third song from the same artist.
HE IS WITH YOU
(Matthew 28:20b, Psalm 34:18)
"There's a time to live and a time to die there's
a time to laugh and a time to cry there's
a time for war and a time for peace there's a hand to hold in the worst of these.
He is with you when your faith is dead and you can't even get out of bed or your husband doesn't kiss you anymore. He is with you when your baby's gone and your house is still and your heart's a stone Cryin' God, what did you do that for He is with you.
There's a time for yes and a time for no there's a time to be angry and a time to let it go there is a time to run and a time to face it there is love to see you through all of this.
He is with you in the conference room when the world is coming down on you and your wife and kids don't know you anymore He is with you in the ICU when the doctors don't know what to do and it scares you to the core He is with you. We may weep for a time but joy will come in the morning the morning light.
He is with you when your kids are grown when there's too much space and you feel alone and you're worried if you got it right or wrong Yes He is with you when you've given up on ever finding your true love someone who feels like home He is with you.
When nothing else is left and you take your final breath He is with you."

Be blessed and be encouraged today as the words of the song say, HE IS WITH YOU.

A Warning Of Caution About What You Display On Faceboof Via My Mother


Today's writing comes from an article my mother sent to me a few days ago. I am not sure where the article came from since my mother sent it to me I did not cut it out of a newspaper myself. Read it and it will cause you to think twice before you share your thoughts, opinions, and even pictures with others. An employer, potential client, teacher, potential employer, children, parents, etc. etc. etc. can have access to view this if you allow it. The list can go on and on and on. Would you invite a stranger into your home without knowing them or share personal details of your life with them? That is why there are tools you can use on Facebook to allow you to share how much or how little you would like with others. I believe you can select these options to share different things with others: everyone; friends of friends; only friends; and customize ( in customize you can select and list who it is visible to or who you would like to hide it from.)
The areas in which you can control these filters are:
personal info
birthday
religious & political views
family & relationship
education & work
photos & videos of me
photo albums
posts by me
allow friends to post on my wall
posts by friends
comments on posts
Facebook can be a good networking tool for you to connect with family, friends, acquaintances and business associates. Just use caution. You would use caution as to whom you invite into your home, this is no different. When you set your settings you allow whomever you select to know about you it is as though they are sitting in the living room right with you. Stay connected with the word of God and prayer. He truly is the one that sets people free and delivers them from the junk in their lives. 1John 2:10 states, "Those who love other believers live in the light. Nothing will destroy the faith of those who live in the light." The Amplified Bible states it like this in Proverbs 20:5 "Wisdom in my heart is like water in a deep well, I am a person of understanding and I draw it out."

My Heart Is Heavy Today For The Lost

This day has been filled with bursts of tears throughout this day. As I write right now my eyes are filled again with tears. The reason being that there will more than likely be someone that has not accepted Jesus into their heart today. In their mind they think that they have tomorrow or the next day or so forth. In reality no man is promised tomorrow or the next, etc. For today is the day of salvation. This is not just a message for the old it is also a message for the young. I remember when I was younger and felt invincible. Nothing was going to stop me from living life. I learned through the death of my brother when he died in his early 20's that life is not always promised to us to live to be a ripe old age. Think long and hard today that before you lay your head down on your pillow tonight that you will ask forgiveness of Jesus. It is not some hard task to do it is so simple that even a child is able to conceive and grasp the idea of salvation in Jesus. Some people think that they have to jump through hoops and have a very pristine life before they can invite Jesus into their lives. Not so, if that were the case then I would still be living the life filled with anger that I lived a few years ago. Satan is a deceiver and he would like you to think that. That you are not good enough to come to Jesus just the way you are. That is where the lie is revealed, Jesus wants you to come to Him just the way you are. Ask Him for forgiveness with a sincere heart and then invite Him into your heart to guide your steps and your life. When you are safe in Jesus that is the best place to be. You see, you can do 1,000 things and think that you did them with a good heart. The fact of the matter is that no matter what you do and how much you do and how often you do it, it will never be enough for you to walk into heaven on your own doing. We are given the gift of eternal life free, there is no charge to you or no amount of work that you complete can earn it. It is freely given to you by Jesus. We can walk in heaven because Jesus came down to earth as an infant child through the virgin birth to redeem His own. His own references those that accept Him and believe that He did come to earth, was born, died and then gloriously rose from the dead on the third day. I know of no one else that has done that. What an awesome love He has for us that he would give up His life so we could live with Him forever and ever and ever. My prayer for you today is that you will see the truth in what I write about and then give your life to Jesus. I will rejoice in advance because I just know that someone reading this will receive Jesus this very day. Did you know that all of heaven rejoices when one comes to know Jesus? I invite you this very day to get to know Jesus, He is real, He is alive, He will set you free. May peace fill your hearts and homes this very day.

I Had An Awesome Day Of Ministry Today

This is what I wrote as a summation of stepping into your God given destiny:
"I encourage you to step out in your gifting. God has already supplied what is needed; Jesus walks through with you; and Holy Spirit nudges you where to go and what to say and do. Awesome way to live your life, the only way to live your life."
I give praise to God for blessing me with gifts and talents inside of me, He's just waiting for me to step out in them and then to use them. I am most thankful for the prayers that were prayed for me. It is one thing to have the gifts but it is another thing when there is someone that is willing to pray for you so you can step into those giftings with ease. When I am called forth to step into the ministry in which I flow it is as though I truly step aside for the few hours that I minister and Holy Spirit guides and directs me.
Of all the many years that I have been operating in this gifting, today was the first time I can truly say that everything flowed so smoothly, truly flowed smoothly. No opposition from the enemy leading up to this day or through this day or even after the ministry took place. I was blessed extra special also. Throughout the years when I would pray with someone if they wanted to be filled with Holy Spirit I would pray for them to get filled with Him with the evidence of them praying in the spirit. Today, I did the same but something was different today. When we prayed the person began to flow in praying in the spirit. This was a first for me. Many times have I prayed with others to receive it but only once did a person actually begin to pray in the spirit. Praise God is all I can say. To God be the glory.
When you step into your calling in life there is no greater feeling because you are able to experience a step into or a glance at your destiny. That is truly amazing. Now I know what it is, with a slight walk into destiny, to know how others feel like as they are walking in their destiny. Pretty good feeling. It is as though you can conquer anything when you are stepping into destiny.
I encourage you today to take a leap of faith and step into destiny. It is already inside of you. Choose to release it. Peace and blessings upon those that wait upon the Lord and spring forth with His leading. I speak to those that are about to trust the Lord with their life and give their troubles over to Him, that is the best and safest place to be. Try it, call upon Jesus and let Him into your life, let Him into your heart. He is there to forgive your sins and set you free. Just invite Him in, He waits upon the asking.

If The Current Path That You Are Walking On Seems To Be Altered From Where You Think You Should Be Walking, Trust, It Is God Who Altered It!!!

I woke up with these words to write down today, "May the Lord always guide your footsteps to walk you into your destiny." I will use them to write as a word for my great niece on her Communion Day. I thought that was the purpose of these words but it was during prayer that Holy Spirit showed me to write with them today and that is what I am doing right now.
There is a book titled, "Quantum Faith" and at the end of the book there are a few scripture verses and there are two particular ones I will share with you. Proverbs 20:5 Amp. states "Wisdom in my heart is like water in a deep well, I am a person of understanding and I draw it out." John 14:6 states "The Holy Spirit teaches me all things and brings all things to my memory. I know and remember who I am. I now use my words and my faith to manifest God's highest and best for me!" As you can see when you read the two verses they are referring to wisdom, only a wisdom that comes to those that seek the Lord and follow His leading. The very path that some are walking on right now are really walking into or in their destiny, that is a very good place to be. Others are on a path that they may not necessarily choose for themselves but neither the less they are still walking on that path. Do not assume that the person in the second example did something wrong or is not walking with the Lord OK. They are walking and talking with the Lord it just may not seem to you like that is a part of their destiny. Some are called to walk on paths that they may never have walked before. It might be quite uncomfortable at times and also quite exhilarating at other times. When you surrender your life to God, to allow Him to let His will be done and for you to walk into your destiny according to His plan for your life it may take you places where you would not choose to go by yourself. You notice I used the words "by yourself." When you walk the journey of destiny God never asks you to travel it by yourself He is always with you and He even sends angels to minister to you as they are needed in your life.
Both situations call for one common thing, to seek wisdom from God and He will supply it if you truly seek it with a sincere heart and not for some ulterior motives. Remember, someone is always watching you and your lifestyle as a Christian, do you know who that is? It is God, along with neighbors, family, friends, co-workers, clients, etc. You cannot hide these things from God for He knows all and sees all and is at all places all the time. You may be able to fool the other people listed but it will only be momentarily for eventually they find out a false person that walks around in Christian clothing with Christian words being used. Did you fail to realize that others can see a false person? Continue on the path that you are called to right now in this season of your life because it is there to attain God destiny. Remember to encourage others no matter what path of the two examples given above that they may be travelling on for the final destination may be there for you to reach out and be an encourager to others that will follow. God is good all of the time and all of the time God is good.
You see, even the person walking on destiny's path today may experience moments of being uncomfortable but also exhilarating at other times. Is one path better than the other, no, for they are the same in reality. Walking out destiny. Go to church today and worship the Lord. He has and will continue to be good to you and He seeks those that love Him and are willing and obedient to respond to His calls. You are alive today so celebrate that there is purpose to be fulfilled in your very life this very day.

Satan At His Strongest Is Equated To The Size Of A Tiny Pea. Do Not Forget To Remind Him Of This Quite Often.

This is what I wrote in 1999. When you see dashes in between words that is how I wrote back then. It would represent pauses in a thought and then onto the next words being given to me. Back then I would also place the time I wrote. I was told that years ago, to do that along with the date in case I was to minister to someone with that very writing. Sometimes timing is everything. Suppose a person was contemplating something in their life and you happen to receive words at the very time they were contemplating something. It just helps to verify to the person that the Lord was already preparing to minister to that person via another receiving words at the very time they may have been crying out to God.


3/6/99 @ 9:11AM – 9:26AM This is what the Lord spoke/showed me . “As the light comes into the day to announce another day has come to be-so does My voice proclaim go get My people-do not leave them for the wolves to devour-Go Get My People.
As we march on in this battle-remember that I fight for you and with you My children-tire not of fighting the good fight-for it is in the moments of rest-or thinking it is calm now-no need to fight that is when satan attacks at his strongest-remember that his strongest is nothing compared to My strongest. See a tiny pea sitting on the ground-from a distance the eye cannot even spot it-it isn’t until you get up close to it-that the eye can see it-that My children-the extent and size of satan at his strongest. Not very powerful now is it? Do I not speak to you about taking dominion over the powers of darkness & the principalities? Surely a foot (even the foot of an infant) can crush a tiny pea. Keep this in your mind the next time you confront satan & laugh as you defeat him-speak the words to him and remind him that when he is at his strongest-you still have dominion over him-you can crush him with your foot-that his strength is so very small.”

Eagles Are Destined To Soar With Like Kind



You never see an eagle soaring with geese do you? No, because geese cannot go where eagles can go. I truly enjoy observing the bald eagles when I walk. Lately, my focus seems to be on one eagle. When I was seeing two together for a period of time I now just seem to see one at a time. The other day as I was walking I saw one eagle swoop down low and I thought it was going to land in the field, surprise, it did not. It actually landed in a tree that was lower to the ground. You see my eyes have always been trained to look up when searching for the eagles and never did I think that they land in tree's lower to the ground. I guess that incident is to remind me to be ever watchful because it is the observant person that discovers much more than the one that chooses not to seek. You can liken it to your walk with the Lord. Are you seeking Him and not just the blessings He gives to you? Seek Him and in the course of your normal day He will make provision for you when you least expect it. Then, all the glory goes to Him and not you. Does that make sense? You know, things like finding that perfect something you were looking for or even that divine appointment you were trying to seek after for months and then all of a sudden the divine connection happens. That is what I am talking about. Just the other day I dialed a phone number and I did not realize that I was one digit off when I dialed the phone number. I was expecting someone to answer the phone and to my surprise it was someone else. I inquired if I dialed the right number and that is when I was told I did dial wrong. I then felt Holy Spirit nudge me to see if this person needed prayer. Guess what? You guessed right if you figured out that I prayed for this person. Not only did I have the opportunity to pray with them I was then prayed for by this person. This person was right on in the prayer prayed for me. I then shared with them that their prayer was very timely and accurate. You see, I felt the leading to dial the phone number I was trying to call. I guess the slip of my finger to press a digit off was not necessarily a mistake right? I could have chose to apologize for dialing the wrong number and hung up but I followed Holy Spirit's leading. You see, I was then able to share that testimony in a conversation I had later that very day. That is the type of surprise I am talking about. The walk with Jesus is fresh and exciting and not dull and boring. If you are living the later mentioned life with Jesus then you have to repent and seek Him and allow Him to walk with you. When you go for a walk with someone at your side do you ignore them? I would hope not for that is rude right? When you have the distinct honor of walking with someone that is the perfect time for fellowship and sharing. I am referring to the natural realm. When I walk that is just one of many times I share with Jesus and He shares back with me. Do not limit your relationship with Jesus He can make your life so grand and full of life for He is life.
I helped my mother yesterday with some Spring cleaning and guess what she gave me? A few poems one of my children wrote and pictures from my debutante ball. I told you I danced with my brother and now you will be able to see what I wrote about in a prior writing.

It Is A Very Good Thing When Your Children Advance Beyond Your Experience

All I can say is WOW. I wrote this draft at 3 something this afternoon and then I went and watched TBN's Praise-A-Thon and one of the preachers actually spoke on this very subject. Don't tell me that God is not speaking to His people today. He sure did speak to me earlier today and then it was confirmed a short time later. I was then truly blessed to be able to plant a monetary seed on behalf of this very thing. Praise God.
How many of us long to see our children advance beyond the experiences that we have lived or are currently living? What do I mean by that? It is simple, did not your parents want you to excel beyond their life experiences? Most people will answer yes to that. If you are a parent there is this desire built inside of you. There is nothing more rewarding than to see your children advance beyond the realm that you were in, in that particular point in their life than where you were at at their age.
Let me share this. When I was in college we only had the desire/insight to go to FL for Spring Break. Not the kids of this current generation. One of my children went to Las Vegas for a Spring Break to visit a friend and another went to Puerto Rico. I never went to Vegas and it wasn't until I went on my honeymoon that I was able to travel to Puerto Rico. Not only that, I had to find a telephone to call my mom to let her know I arrived safely. Today, all my child had to do was text me to let me know that they arrived safely and they were visiting Old San Juan. Why did I not think bigger when I was in college? I don't know the answer to that question but I do know this, I am very happy that my children had the opportunity to be more creative with their travel experiences. Each time they travel I always tell them to have fun, be safe and one of the most important things I always tell them is to use wisdom.
When I went to Puerto Rico I never dreamed that my very child would be walking the beaches and the streets of Old San Juan where their father and I walked many years before the thought was even conceived of them being born. To me that is amazing. The same when one of my children went to Croatia I was already there twice and again, the blessing to be able to walk on the very streets that I walked on. I look with anticipation to see what the horizon brings forth for my children. That is my prayer for my children that they advance with what they are called/destined to do with their lives. What an exciting time for parents to live in now. Look with expectancy to see where God will take your children to fulfill destiny. Always keep them covered with your prayers for them and never tire of telling them how much you love them and what a treasure and gift they are to you. If you text message why don't you text them and tell them that you believe in them.
