This morning I heard the Father speak, ” I am calling ALL of my children into my secret place.” This day is the 21st. That biblically represents vengeance and excessive sin. God is wiping the slates for HIS faithful COGS. He needs us. Meaning, He has need of the faithful to reach out to the LOST. Like never before, this is necessary.

Deep is calling OUT. It is time to set the captives free. They have endured long enough. JESUS will set them free. We must come into agreement for HIM to use us effectively. WE must surrender ALL, and seek HIS purpose, plan and peace in ALL things. Because, in this season, if people are not following God, He will bring Heaven and to them it will be HELL.

Even for the faithful holy remnant at first the FIRE will burn. But, know this has purpose. Become acutely aware of the enemy’s scheme. Only under the tutelage of the LORD can this be. There will appear to be much death around. However, it is up to you as to whether it abounds. Do you care more about the souls of others, even than yourself?

Because major sacrifices will be required, based on obedience to the KING. You shall see. Everyone seems to think it is no big deal to be hateful to each other. But, it is a BIG BIG deal. THIS entry was begun on the 18th. God is breaking HIs children out of bondage. 18 Biblically represents this. It is finishing on the 24th, which is the ROYAL priesthood. The royal family that everyone else sees, is not the family of God.

But, it is TIME that honor is placed where it is due. Today at 1am, David and I returned from a trip. This trip went exactly as God desired. But, MAN was it tough in parts for us. HIS LOVE really does conquer ALL. 1 is New beginnings.  So, the house had lost power 4 1/2 days earlier. The temperature was like 85 when we walked in. Yet, God kept ALL inside well. Anyway, we came in, showered, and rested for a few. Then, we woke, went for breakfast, and our card was declined. ALL we could do was laugh. Grateful that there was cash in the wallet, we got food. We thanked God. Then, we came home, and there was no answer to the request for funds. So, we posted a request on FB. Within minutes, someone messaged David. Thank you LORD! Then, right after that, the previous request came through and then some. Half way through the day, we were led to go again, to the same place for a meal. We diud not get much, but what we did was interesting. The price was. $11.11. This is the number of the angels. I had seen it earlier. a girl at the counter said, you should play the lottery. My response was simple. I said, “If God wants me to have money, it will fall from the sky.” The teenage boy, who was just precious said something intersing. He said, “That is a good woman right there.” Humbled by the LOVE of God indeed. See, it is working, it is NOT pointless. Just move in His LOVE.

This song was on today….after I woke from a dream of battle with the enemy. The song is very appropriate. The power had been off for 5 days. We were led to donate the food. Also, God kept our kitty babies safe. Here is the SonG…

Hillsong –

“Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)”

The last 3 days, I have been sitting before God. Some have a misconception that you can do nothing else but stare. I do believe that GOD can be mesmerizing. However, sometimes He calls us to do more than stare. I thank GOD for the gift of HIS LOVE. He gave me this topic this morning. He said, “My child, please stop counting time.”

I said, “I am not sure I understand.” He said, “When you walk from Heaven, there is NO time.” Lately, since our world was rocked, I have not been sleeping as much. I know GOD is calling me unto HIM. He has me literally take breaks from the world. What is awesome is THAT can happen, and life can go on as usual, in a sense. Let me explain. God is not limited. But, we as humans can be. Humans are only limited without GOD.

He gently reminded me, ” Time is not the healer. I AM.” Time is simply a tool that can be used in the healing process. ” Now, I should confess something. There was a season in my life, where I was unbalanced in FAITH. God so met me there, and when it tries to rear it’s ugly head again, He stomps it in the ground. God alone slays Goliath. He may use us to do it, but HE does it.

How many people live on a time schedule???? I mean the 9 to 5 job is a great example. THIS world is built around TIME. But, Heaven is built around LOVE. Hell is built around hate. THEY are polar opposites. Yet, there is a very fine line between the two.

So, why do we count time? Why do we stare at the clock wondering when the hours will pass sometimes? Have you ever experienced this? An example is in school, when the class is boring, or you are tired. another example is, at an appointment. If the doctor, teacher, or tutor is running behind schedule, what happens? Well, usually you just wait right? Isn’t this true according to the word? Don’t we have to wait on GOD? I know it is a lot of questions. But, it is time for God reflections.

The enemy shows a lot of people his mirror. Would you NOT rather see God instead??? I know I would. 😉

Isaiah 40:31 Amplified Bible (AMP)

31 But those who wait for the Lord [who expect, look for, and hope in Him] shall change and renew their strength and power; they shall lift their wings and mount up [close to God] as eagles [mount up to the sun]; they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint or become tired.

Shouldn’t we LIVE according to God’s time schedule? Because I believe we should. Yet, it takes the mind of Christ to do so. God wants to be our LIFE manager. He wants to manage and take care of everything. In fact, it is one of the many hidden promises He makes us. When He says, “Come follow me and I will make you fishers of men.” He is talking about several things here. He is talking about learning how to LOVE through HIM. Also, He is speaking of holy discernment. It is actually a hidden reference to testing spirits. God wants ALL of us.

This song came to my spirit…

Years ago I watched a movie with this title. I was fascinated by it. It was a movie that captivated by attention. Mainly because it was about death, and how it does not stop LOVE from shining. GOD is LOVE. HE is, we are only LOVE in HIM.

What does HIS word say about time management?

Hallelujah! A child iS BORN! A son has RISEN!!!! THE FIRE HAS COME!!!!!!

The blog post was spoken over me today. I heard GOD clear. Though, the enemy tried to distract me. BUT GOD indeed.He said, ” My FIRE will fall from the sky!” I was like. YES Lord. I say this, because the FIRE hurts. I mean it burns, it dehydrates at times, it does destroy ultimately ALL not of GOD. I am grateful for THIS. No one can fight for us like HIM!!!!!!!

I am going though some changes. They are HOLY changes. So is David. They are REALLY uncomfortable to the flesh. Yet, we will NOT complain. We pray the BLOOD of Jesus against that. Because there is power in it. Absolute HOLY power. Afflictions last but a moment.

THIS season is about surrender. YOU will surrender to either God or the enemy. There cannot be both. It is not a have my cake and eat it too scenario. But, most try right? God is burning off iniquities. But only to those who agree HE will. He says the JUST shall live by FAITH.

One of my FAVORITE songs is….

“You Won’t Relent”

“Do You Hear The People Sing?”

[Enjolras:]
Do you hear the people sing?
Singing a song of angry men?
It is the music of a people
Who will not be slaves again!
When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start
When tomorrow comes![Combeferre:]
Will you join in our crusade?
Who will be strong and stand with me?
Beyond the barricade
Is there a world you long to see?[Courfeyrac:]
Then join in the fight
That will give you the right to be free![All:]
Do you hear the people sing?
Singing a song of angry men?
It is the music of a people
Who will not be slaves again!
When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start
When tomorrow comes!

[Feuilly:]
Will you give all you can give
So that our banner may advance
Some will fall and some will live
Will you stand up and take your chance?
The blood of the martyrs
Will water the meadows of France!

[All:]
Do you hear the people sing?
Singing a song of angry men?
It is the music of a people
Who will not be slaves again!
When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start
When tomorrow comes

Something that is interesting about these lyrics, is what is common. The commonality is PASSION. It comes from FIRE! So when you get burned with HIS fire will you perish???

The last song is from LES Miserables.  David calls it less miserable. I think that is interesting. Because are WE less miserable when we fight? NO. We are LESS miserable when we REST and are in PEACE. Fill us with your FIRE LORD. Fill us with your PEACE and ALL you are. PURIFY us mighty GOD!!!!!!!!!!

This has and will always BE my hearts cry. One more song…

“Heart’s Cry”

By: Steven Curtis Chapman

This is my heart’s cry
I want to know the one who saved me and gave me life
This is my heart’s cry to be so close to Him that all my life becomes
A testimony of my Saviour’s grace and love
This is my heart’s cryThis is my heart’s cry
Much more than just a great desire–it’s like a fire in me
I hear my heart cry each time I think about the cross where Jesus died
The cross should have been mine but His love broke through time
And heard my heart’s cry–He heard my heart’s cryNow every other hope and dream is lost inside of this one thing
To know the one who died for me and live my life for Jesus Christ
Oh this is my heart’s crySo let my life become a testimony of my Saviour’s grace and love
Oh, this is my heart’s cry–to stand before the Father one day
And hear Him say well done–this is my heart’s cry.

Everything is NOT going to always seem perfect. BUT, the more LOVE is shown, the more GOD perfects it. He wants a repentant heart. If you do NOT come before HIM with that gift, ALL else falls by the wayside. Because, He cannot and will not honor a heart that is not committed and fastened to HIS.

So, I say BURN LORD!!!!!! BURN IT ALL AWAY!!!!! Set ablaze whatever must GO! Have a bonfire of the evil that surrounds us. Thank you JESUS!!!!!! I repent b4 you and know that I falter sometimes. But, I thank GOD that YOU never waver. That the more hidden within you, the less, WE will. Thank you GOD for your HOLY FIRE!!!!!!! It dispells the enemy’s lies.

In JESUS HOLY name and BLOOD,

AMen

I LOVE ya’ll. Our family does. Friend or FOE you are LOVED.

This morning HE woke me early. I thought at first, I thought I was going to sleep in. But, GOD is so gracious. He knew it was not meant as a complaint. Rather an observation, that I was called to get up earlier than expected. I LOVE God. He gives us exactly what we need. Gently, I could feel that tug. I could sense the “I have need of thee.” What an honor.

This topic was given to me yesterday. While driving yesterday the most beautiful thing happened. God had given me a word. It was “Daughter I want you to drive until it gets dark.” I said, Okay Father. Now, normally it gets dark between 8 and 9. But, He kept the light in the sky until 9:30 or later. He had us stop within about 30 minutes or so afterwards. here is what is most significant. 30, is Biblically the blood of Christ and dedication. Also, when looking in the rear view mirror, it was pitch DaRK behind us.

It was really amazing. I mean I was just in AWE. I heard the LORD say, “My PEACE is the missing piece.” I saw a vision while driving, of a puzzle. I mean THIS puzzle was HUGE. It was the Last piece of the puzzle. I asked, ” What does this mean?” I heard quite simply,  The number one thing that the adversary does, it to try and even temporarily take the peace of my children. It is a mighty weapon. Be still and KNOW that I am GOD. Let me teach, guide and direct and YOU will not fail because I will succeed.”

Now, many know what we are enduring. We are approaching the 7 month mark of our precious butterfly taking flight. Yet, GOD is being so incredible. I mean truly in many ways, by HIs Grace and through HIS power, we are receiving Heaven. I struggled with this trip we are on. I mean that in so many senses. It has been and still is, a constant surrender. A constant, “Okay LORD, your ways not mine, or David’s or anyone else’s.”

But, having said THAT, I have never been so touched by GOD. I have NEVER in my almost 38 years had the level of intimacy that I now have. I believe it is because WE are partaking in HIS suffering in a whole new way. Is it because I am special? Well, in a sense YES. But, not like you may think. It is because GOD sees US ALL as special. To HIM WE are HIS babies, rare Jewels to a world that is mostly lost.

I am going to post a few scriptures on PEACE. For those who read this blog you know how much I love the opentopics site. 🙂 The main point of this entry is that the PEaCE of the LORD is what overcomes. It is FAITH in HIS promises. Like humpty dumpty, we FALL but He picks us up and He puts us back together again. IT is done BY His peace, as HE pours out HIS GLORY. We are renewed peace by piece.

Be still my soul, Be still. Wait patiently until. My heart unites within the walls of HIS LOVE. Be still my soul be still. God is commanding us from the deepest place of LOVE that WE can fathom. He is commanding us to receive HIS peace. But, WE cannot do so without repentance before HIM.

That is the number one lie the enemy tells. I mean he is somewhat “famous” for false peace. No Glory is ever given to the adversary. Though, it may appear it is. It took years to stop focusing on circumstances. Even still, it is a daily submission to GOD. I mean, I am far from perfect. But HE can and does perfect my ways by HIs LOVE. He can do the same for you.

So, as a mom, and I still am; reminding myself 😉 I must remember to stay focused. This is true as a daughter, a COG, a wife and any other hat HE gives me to wear. The focus must remain so that HE can maintain. It remains on HIM. It does not mean that WE will never lose focus. sometimes things seem blury. But, at the cross He has hidden secrets. They abide within us, but within GoD who dwells within HIS children.

We are temples of the LORD. Even a person who naturally has not chosen GOD is still loved by HIM. However, HE may know them, but they don’t really know HIM. At least not in a way that is tangible and conscious. When Sarah Beth was little, I would think and pray. One thing that would pass my mind is; “I hope she knows God.” She came in knowing GOD.

Everything is NOT necessarily mind blowing. God is most often found within the simple places, and faces. But, everything, every PIECE and every PEACE is important to God. I cannot tell you how many times He reminds us to stay wrapped in HIS LOVE. In psalm 91 it is clear. It talks about the power that comes when abiding in HIM. Is it our power? No, it is not. It is the power of God gifted and spread of over us, because oh how HE LOVES us.

I want to say to those who have LOST children something. “They are not LOST to GOD.” In fact, if these children passed and were under the age of 12, they are with HIM. There is no doubt, question or agonizing needed. He FOUND them. You know that phrase, “One mans junk is another mans treasure?” Well, GOD does not make JUNK. We are ALL treasures to HIM.

We fall down, we LAY our crown at the FEET of JESUS. ~

He will pick it back up, after cleaning it up, and making it all shiny and NEW. He will pick us up. When Peter walked on the water, and began to fall, Jesus extended HIS hand to HIM. He does so now unto you precious ones. Will you receive it? Will you lay down every burden and care? Will you LET Him lift you up? Because He is waiting, and the time is running. The clock of this world is ticking by. One day, this world will run out. I ask you, to please consider a change. Consider giving the brokenness to GOD. It is a gift to HIM. The best one we can ever give to the one who LOVES us most. Thanks be to GOD.

Lord, WE come before you fully armored, because we know THAT is a gift from you. We know that when we begin to surrender more, the attacks will at first appear to be stronger. Each new level will seem tougher than the one before. But, your GRACE is sufficient. YOUR power is perfected in our weakness. Thank you for your LOVE. Thank you for taking our brokenness and making us whole. Thank you for giving us the honor of being alive. Thank you for bringing healing straight from Heaven. We praise you GOD. We repent for places we may falter, and even on behalf of others who don’t know these Heavenly secrets yet. You are a faithful GOD. Nonetheless, you arE GLORY.

In Jesus Name and BLOOD,

Amen

This song keeps coming to me…

“Coming Out Of The Dark”

I know it was written by Gloria Estefan.

I was thinking about the lyrics. I would say bar none….that THIS is where I am. Finally in the LIGHT with HIM. I have always been there, but never like this. It is like I visited it before, and now I live there. Thank you GOD that your light NEVER goes out. Hallelujah!!!!!!!

In His Grace and Glory,

When I woke up today, I had no plans of writing. In fact, I tried to go back to sleep. I got up, walked around and felt pain. But, I wasn’t mad, like I usually am. I was grateful. I am grateful to be alive. Today is the 11th in the month of July. 11 Biblically stands for disorder and judgement. 7 is Completion. Look around you….can’t you see that happening? God is bringing it from the Heavens. The hardest part about it is the more GLORY that arrives, the more pain our flesh will feel, at first. The more pure God makes us the less the pain will have access from a place of Fear.

I went through something recently for 8 days. Biblically 8 is New Beginnings. I was having very intense physical pain. I was not led to take much medicine, or use the normal methods to deal with it. I was simply led to wait. I praised GOD, without verbal words, because the pain was so intense. It was probably more intense for many reasons. I wept with God. I stayed with HIM only. so much so, that it was like I wasn’t even here. When it was done, the pain was GONE.

I used to be ashamed to talk about these encounters. But, not any longer. The Lord, gave me much revelation about pain. In fact, it was a few years ago that He began discussing it with me. The best way to get through it is to praise HIM who brought us to it. It is NOT to complain, because THAT creates MORE pain. God does not want us in torture. But, He does want to teach us the difference about the world’s view on pain and HIS.

As a child, I would hear a phrase I NEVER liked. It is the phrase, “NO PAIN NO GAIN.” I thought, are you kidding me? What on earth is the purpose of pain. But, now we have more insight on that. The earthly pain, and our humanity prepares us to receive the GLORY of Heaven. In Romans it discusses this.

Yesterday I had a dear friend mention that she was in pain. I sought the LORD as to why we have pain. This is what I received. “If my children would only learn that the PAIN is temporary, than it would NOT overcome them. It is a breaking that happens on the way to the Glorious Promised Land. Look at the Israelites. Why did it take them so long? Was it because of the pain? NO! It was because they grumbled and complained about the pain. If my people who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray, then I will heal their land. It must happen in my way and my time. Your job is to praise me for handling it ALL.”

It seems simple when God breaks it down. We will have pain. But, that does not mean we are not free, or that we haven’t done enough. IT simply means, it is PART of the process. Our God breaks us down, to feed us to the multitudes. I rejoice in the PAIN because the more GOD feels I can handle here, the closer I am to HOME, in Heaven.

Be STILL and know that HE is God. do you know that during the 8 days, I was refreshed and brought to much encouragement. It was not because I opened my bible every single day. I’m not saying that is not a good thing. I am simply saying this, the word is in me. I was led to just SIT at the feet of JESUS. so much so, that I was almost not even conscious here in this world. My husband has been married to me for 8 plus years. He now knows that these sabbaticals, though at times feel inconvenient to HIM, are necessary for the plans GOD has in mind.

When I awoke from this strange state, which to my flesh was HELL; I was filled with Heaven. I had NO pain, and when the pain comes now I rejoice. Because the praise of GOD really does shut the door to the enemy. I am grateful for God’s mercy on me. Because He knows how much I am used to pray. He knows the works that others do not see. He knows because it belongs to HIM. I’m saddened by what is to come for the enemies of God. More pain than some can bear. Because they have been warned, and yet continue on against Him.

Be prepared, anything that is held over GOD will be removed in this season. I urge you to NOT fear and to surrender especially the children to GOD. Because it ALL belongs to HIM. The gifts are shared with us. But, know that He will offer them a chance to go home first. In the next few years, we will see what looks like an increase in deaths. This will be especially true with young children. Yet, in many cases it will be releasing of the captives. Because GOD is bringing and has been bringing increase of HEART knowledge to this world. It is coming straight from the THRONE of Heaven. Some are not prepared to receive it. Are you ready? Because if you are NOT ready and if you are a hindrance to the process, in any way God may just remove you. Tomorrow is NOT promised on this earth, but it absolutely IS in Heaven.

This song came into my spirit……It was written by Kim Hill.

Holy, You are still holy,
Even when the darkness surrounds my life
Sovereign, You are still sovereign
Even when confusion has blinded my eyes
Lord I don’t deserve Your kind affection
When my unbelief has kept me from Your touch
I want my life to be a pure reflection of Your loveCHORUS:
And so I come into Your chambers
And I dance at Your feet Lord
You are my saviour, and I’m at Your mercy
All that has been in my life up to now
It belong to You
You are still holyHoly, You are still holy
Even though I don’t understand Your ways
Sovereign You will be sovereign
Even when my circumstances don’t change
Lord I don’t deserve Your tender patience
When my unbelief has kept me from Your truth
I want my life to be a sweet devotion to You

CHORUS:
And so I come into Your chambers
And I dance at Your feet Lord
You are my saviour, and I’m at Your mercy.
All that has been in my life up to now
It belongs to You
I belong to You

And so I come into your chambers
And I dance at Your feet Lord
You are my saviour and I’m at your mercy
All that has been in my life up to now
It belongs to You
I belong to you

You are still holy, You are still sovereign
You are still holy, Lord
You are still righteous
You are all knowing
You are still holy, You are still holy

The whole point is, PAIN is REAL. I was asked if I was real yesterday. I thought, well YES. It was a silly question to me. But, the question is one that deserves reflection. Are we REAL? This person asked this because she couldn’t see my FB page. It was likely a glitch in the system, or could have been an attack attempt from the enemy. Or, it could have been God holding off things for HIS timing. What was interesting was, right after I said YES, another friend piped in. She said, “I can vouch for her. She is real.” I thought wow. Because instantly, the scripture came to mind….no man loves His brother more than to lay down HIS life for a friend. Could that mean to vouch for one as well? I think so. 🙂

The world is in a seemingly tumultuous state. But, God is NOT unaware. I personally have wept tears of blood at least 37 times in the last two years. IT does not make me more spiritual, or more connected to God necessarily. But, what it does show me is the PAIN felt in the Garden of Gethsemane. 37 Biblically is the word of the FATHER. It represents wisdom. I cried out to GOD hard. I let go of, to HIM what I considered my most prized possession. She came like a fesh wind, and she left the same way, even more fresh and beautiful. It is to date one of the most painful and yet PRECIOUS experiences I have ever had.

We DO not celebrate the PAIN itself, but the release. Just as we don’t celebrate death. We celebrate GOD overcoming it! Perhaps as a dear sister pointed out to me, the PAIN is how GOD keeps us close. For HE is close to the broken hearted indeed. We can testify to this.

http://www.openbible.info/topics/pain_and_hurt

Do you believe God has freed you from the pain? Then rejoice and DANCE before HIM. He is watching.

Heavenly Father we thank you for the JOY and the PAIN. We thank you for the sonshine and the rain. We are grateful that you LOVE us so relentlessly. You alone are GOD. It is because of your LOVE that we are here. Thank you for the passion you have for your COGS. We repent for places we falter, we lay it ALL on your altar. ALL the pain, and ALL the gain. You alone are GLORY.

In Jesus Name and BLOOD,

Amen

The day this was originally written, marks 6 months since our beautiful butterfly entered eternity. What a beautiful gift to dance into the arms of JESUS, and stay. Yet, what an earthquake it feels like left behind, to those who mourn. When the blog post name was given, I thought about it. I wondered, “What direction is God going to take this?” I never know which way He is going to go. But, I do know that whatever way it is, it will be GLORIOUS.

When we come into this world, it appears that we come in as innocent. Yet, that is not always the case. If we come into the world, and generational curses are not broken off, we can bring in both Heaven and Hell. So we think about what the word says. It states, “first you must learn to crawl, then to walk, and finally to run.” So, from the get go, we come in taking baby steps. Here is the question, “What are we walking to?”

Are we walking toward the HOLY light, or the false holy light. How many times do we make excuses for our loved ones, or ourselves? How many times do we rationalize or justify, influenced by stuff other than GOD? If we are not aware that we are doing so, it could be practically every day. Please take some time to reflect on this with GOD. Ask HIM if you have any areas that need healing, improvement or surrender. Likely, there will be some which require all 3.

As a baby, one of the first things that most children do is feed. They either breast feed, or bottle feed. I personally, don’t think it matters, as long as that child is surrendered to GOD by the parents. Because, He can use and bless anything, as long as surrender is present. If it isn’t, at least not to HIM, then what should be blessed can remain cursed.

Another thing a baby learns to do is to speak. Our butterfly spoke at 7 months. We were in shock, hearing words come out. The first word was hi. The second word was dad. Probably third was mom. She was doing what we call a crab crawl. Before she crawled forward, she crawled backwards. Now how many of us do this? How many times do we go to GOD, and say this; “Can I try it my way….please.” I mean, my goodness. Is it necessary to try almost every wrong way before seeing the right one?

This is not said to condemn anyone. It is more about reflection. He encourages us to study to show thyself approved. This is both about the word of GOD, and also seeking what is hidden inside, both the GLORIOUS and HEAVENLY, and also what is a hindrance and ultimately seeds for hell. We cannot have both. The fact is, no matter how good a person is, if the person has not taken the BIG LEAP to choose JESUS as LORD and savior, then they will perish eternally.

God has been very merciful to many. However, HIS level of mercy to those in blatant disobedience, rebellion and defiance is definitely changing. His level of Grace is as well. Because some think we are in an age of religion. Yet, GOD says we are in an age of REVELATION. We are now out of the age of grace. Which is a very good thing, because many were permitted to take advantage. That permission has now been revoked.

Soon, ALL shall see the GLORY and SPLENDOR of GOD. Soon ALL will know that HE is the ONLY true GOD. Our awesome GOD meets people where they are, however HE does not change who HE is to do so. SO, why should we? Yet, how many of us do? How many of us, influenced by fear, fall into the trap of attempting to play God?

Will we continue to live in punishment? Because we were freed from it on the cross over 2,000 years ago. He has shown us that this spirit is one of the keys to death and hades. So, here is the question, where are we walking? Are we walking the line, by towing the line? Are we accepting only what we think we deserve, from a negative stand point? Because just yesterday, it was revealed that I could not take ownership, for fear that I would fall into pride, or mess something up.

Is that fear mine? NO. Yet, I was taking ownership of that. Forgive me LORD. Baby steps are simply that. They start with a mustard seed of FAITH. But, it can’t stay that small seed, it must GROW by HIS LOVE. How they turn into giant leaps is simple as well. When the trials come, you learn to REST in HIS peace. To give HIM new songs, poems, praise, and so much more is what GOD desires from us. Because HE knows that in that place of cleansing, purification and sanctification, HE will not only show up…HE will sow out. That should have been show out, but both are true. 😉

Daily we divorce the enemy. God reminds us that WE are not the enemy to each other. IT is the spirits and principalities that we fight. Is it comfortable? Well, no it definitely isn’t. At least not ALL the time. But, we definitely are comforted in the process. It is an honor to be loved by and to serve GOD. It is a privilege to be covered by the blood of JESUS. It is an honor to come to HIS throne and sit at HIS feet. It is a JOY to be overflowing with who HE is.

Do you think that we always had the exact same amount of faith as now? Because, trust me, we did not. There were many times that we claimed the scripture about the mustard seed. In fact, we still do. Every time we read that a loud, more holy seeds are planted. More baby steps are taken. More giant leaps are prepared through HIS transformation of our hearts, souls, spirit, minds, wills, and emotions.

I told someone last night, “We used to waver, in particular I did.” But, it was spoken over me, and David that we would not wobble in faith any longer. Thank you JESUS! We are seeing rapid change from what was, to what is and ultimately what will become HIS desires as ours line up with HIM. This really is the point of walking the line between GOD and satan. The point is that in GOD the line becomes very clear, and at times, GOD can erase the line, because surrender is so deep, that the enemy has NO Access any longer. NOW that is a QUANTUM LEAP indeed.

It is time that as WE grow up in the FAITH, through our awesome GOD, that the children we have been gifted do so as well. IT is TIME to teach the children about the armor of GOD, the power of GOD when being obedient to HIM only for HIS purpose and plan, is unexplainable. Truly, words don’t cut it when attempting to share how incredible and unimaginable the power of GOD IS! Things like communion, anointing oil, prayer, praise, and worship are holy weapons. Even repenting becomes a holy weapon when done from a sincere heart.

Can you see the difference in the kids and adults???

Jesus says in scripture, “When I was a child, I thought like a child. But, then I became a man and put away childish ways.” Are we doing this??? Because if we are not, is it surprising what God has permitted? The answer is  repentance….TURN to GOD. He will teach you to crawl, walk and RUN the race. You are HIS baby, and HE loves you.

The scriptures being included are about newborn babies. Because We MUST get back to the basics, especially PRAYING scripture for HIS purpose and plan over HIS precious children, HE so graciously shares with us.

http://www.openbible.info/topics/newborn_baby

Thanks be to GOD the FATHER, HIS SON JESUS, and the HOLY SPIRIT. Yes, we repent for places we falter. Yes, we thank you for LOVING us anyway. We praise you for taking us up to where you are mighty GOD. It isn’t because we strove to get there, it was because we drove there in YOU. You are clear about it being finished. WE must REST in that, even in the combination of baby steps and giant leaps that will arrive and arise. Thank you for not sparing the ROD. You never spare the Reversal of Destiny. Show us your GLORY LORD. May only you be GLORIFIED.

In Jesus Holy Name and BLOOD, AMEN

By HIS Grace and in HIS GLORY,

E and FAM

This morning, this dropped into my spirit. I could visually see, the LION KING. It is one of my favorite movies. Many of us have cried out to GOD. WE have asked for help, assistance, HIM to take over. He knows. He hears our cries. KNow  this dear ones, it absolutely IS time. TIME to see moves of GOD that will leave us breathless.

One day I was listening to a sermon. I believe it was Kat Kerr. She said, ” we have been crying out for the FIRE of GOD to come. Did we think it wouldn’t come???” This really registered with me. I found my self shouting HAllelujah!!!! Because it is the FIRE of GOD which will quite literally turn the tide. IT is the HOLY FIRE that will defeat the enemy’s plots. If you have not seen this fire, or experienced it; you will.

This fire to any FLESH hurts like HELL, at first. Because it is not something that we are taught to embrace. YEt, our spirits are filled up, to the core of our Heavenly soul, by the FIRE of GOD. Strange things will come to pass. But, we must TRUST anyway. They are not strange to HIM, only to us. WE must follow HIS peace. Never our own peace, or anyone else’s will do. Only the peace that is a gift from GOD will continue to make us complete, new and resurrected daily.

Someone once said, “Your marriage needs saving.” I thought, “Wait a minute it was saved the day we said YES.” I thank GOD that because HE loves us, HE does save us daily as we do our part. WE must come, to HIS well of FIRE and seek purification. Most importantly, we must do so not for ourselves, but as an honor to GOD alone. We must be open to be corrected in whatever forms GOD chooses. He used a donkey once, after all. 😉

There is a HEAVENLY flow happening. Can we embrace it? I recently had someone confide, “I’m not sure I am a believer.” Do you know that in that place, you are seeking. That is beautiful. GOD will honor that. It means you are close to getting the answers you have questioned. It is time. TIME to receive HIS truth, and not believe the lies and the evil that is spoken. Time to see the word of GOD not only as correcting, but the ultimate TRUTH in LOVE. THe Heavenly Father carries us. IN the natural, we are taught to lean on each other. Yet, GOD teaches us to lean on HIM in each other.

IT is the small leaps of FAITH, the mustard seeds, that are planted. THey are the ones that all together, in unity, bring GREAT harvest. ANother person once said, “I know you want to give my family money.” This was said to David. In fact, I was not physically even in the house, at this time. David looked at them, and was shocked. Because he thought, “No, I don’t want to. NOt because the person didn’t deserve the chance. It was for one reason only. The person had no remorse for the wrongs that had been done. God showed my husband that giving more, when HIS season in it had been cut off, was not only disobedient; but casting pearls to swine.

Yesterday there were many triggers. Yet we know GOD is bigger. Our heart aches for the nations, running the race in the wrong direction. WHile our awesome GOd waits for them with affection. THey turn from HIS LOVE, purest in form, feeling unworthy, and seeing only closed doors. Don’t you see that is also a trap. The enemy wants us to focus on the crappiness of this world. Yet, WE are God’s COGS. HE makes us super heroes. He heals and cures ALL our woes. Do you believe? WIll you receive? Because GOD will only wait so long. I say this, because time is changing. The level of GRACE has been amazing. Yet, be not deceived to think it will stay the same. Just by using our brain, we think we can figure it out. WE think we can drink of life water, when we don’t repent for places we have faltered. Turn us about LORD, for your play is fair. IT is HOLY and in this world, RARE. For you will make it as it should be. We must rejoice and wait and see. BUt, repentance is the key that unlocks the faith. Can’t we get this straight? It’s not from condemnation, but to save the nations. OH, how you LOVE us….

This morning when I woke, a little over 3 hrs after going to sleep. As He woke me, I had trouble. It wasn’t that I didn’t want to obey. MY heart is pretty well always in it. IT was more my flesh was very tired. I was informed gently, “His GRace is sufficient, and HIS power made perfect in our weakness. I smiled, and said, “Okay Daddy.”

So I come today, asking HIM to, as always do the work. It is so much better when GOD does it. There were 39 stripes put upon Jesus’s back. When He was crucified on Calvary, this horrendous act was done, and IT, ALL that needed to BE, became finished. It was pointed out today that this number Biblically represents disease. So, for those who say our sickness did not die on a cross, here is proof that it did.

I was thinking of God’s surpassing LOVE today, how it truly surpasses everything when WE allow it to permeate us. This must be an important post. I say this because I started it about an hour ago, and half an hour in, the session randomly logged out. I had to wake David to assist me, getting it back up. But, as always GOD resurrected it.

Just as THIS happened with the crucifixion, so it keeps happening in the lives of HIS COGS. I wonder sometimes why people say they believe, but when tested, it is proven otherwise. I wonder, How could anyone RUN from God’s love. The word tells us that the wages of sin is death. That means, the more we are attached to sin, the less we are attached to GOD. It is either GOD and HIS LOVE that multiplies, or evil and it’s sin.

Do you want a chance to begin again, and in a new way? Because if you do, there is GREAT news available for you. Every single day is a NEW day and a NEW beginning for something wonderful, in the KINGDOM of GOD. You get a clean slate with HIM every day. In fact, I have noticed, we often get it every moment, if needed. But, the point is this; the GOD who created us, is a GOD of LOVE and ADORATION. The one that feel from Heaven, and into HELL is not. The second one, our enemy, is a god who can only bring DEATH.

David and I are not perfect. We will shout that from the rooftops. But, WE serve a perfect GOD. WE don’t come from a place of religion. but relationship in HIM. For He is the one who leads, us guides us and in whom WE abide. He knows what we are going through. HE knows how hard it is to walk into the storm. He also hold our hands in the process. Thanks be to GOD.

Grateful are we, humbled always before HIM. Repentful from the bottom of our hearts of anything that may have remotely hindered HIS plan. We are not so prideful to think we could stop HIS plan. WE can’t, but we have been used before to try and complicate it. God really is a simple GOD. He is ALL about the LOVE…..but HIS LOVE is like no other. IT requires holy obedience to receive it. IT will hang out and wait for us. But, only so many chances will be given, before the opportunity to chose it runs out. THe LOVE never ever does.

I sometimes wonder, if GOD is proud of me. I used to wonder if my parents were, or my family. Now, when I wonder from childlike Faith I ask. I always hear, “My child, well done my good and faithful servant. I love you so. For you are my treasure and a jewel in my crown. One of my masterpieces. ” For those who tell us, “God doesn’t speak to me that way” we say this, “Ask God is there is something blocking that?” Meaning if He is always firm with you, perhaps that portion might need healing. It might not be the HOLY GOD. Seek HIM, and you will find out.

http://www.openbible.info/topics/the_crucifixion

Today LORD, we seek you to permeate our souls. TO extinguish any darkness and HELL as only you can. First and foremost we praise YOU for you are worthy. YOU alone are GOD. WE thank you LION of Judah for roaring on our behalf. Transform us in your GLORY for your GLORY. IN Jesus Holy and MIGHTY name and BLOOD. Amen

Today is the 18th, biblically representing bondage. LET GOD open the prison doors and receive the SON as well as see the sunrise. 🙂

GOD in HEAVEN brings DEATH in FAITH but it is HOLY DEATH, NOT SCARY. The god in HELL brings Death by FEAR. ONE brings a resurrection and new life. The other brings only destruction and mayhem. Choose this day whom you will serve. As for me and my house, WE will serve the LORD. WE serve the Heavenly Father, LORD JESUS and Holy Spirit together. ONLY GOD must get the GLORY….ALWAYS.

We must remember something. The GOD we serve is a bondage breaker. Over and over. our creator our maker. He is the way the truth and the life. He stomps and squashes FEAR and STRIFE. He brings peace and make us complete. Receive the healing this day. For by HIS stripes we are surely healed, and GOD alone has GLORIOUSLY made a WAY!!!! Hallelujah and thank you LORD, not for the world’s reward. Because they will ebb and flow. THose will come and go. But, we thank you for loving us, trusting that WE will obey. Reminding us, that you and YOU alone will always stay. YOu keep us hidden in you. YOU make ALL things NEW. You alone turn the tide, you alone turn the page. IT was 39 stripes, the bible’s number of disease. So, when people say, He didn’t take sickness, I think Oh please…As in please LORD turn it ROUND. So the world can hear the sound of your heart. You make it right, your perfect our ways. We repent this day, of places we may falter, both past and even future. LORD, come and stitch our wounds, with your holy sutures. YOu know what should have been, what you freed and saved us from. Let us not forget your precious LOVE. WE bless you name, we are forever changed because you touched us. We love YOU.

In His Grace and GLORY,

What is your oxygen? It seems like an easy question. I mean, most would just say, air. But, really take a moment and think. What are you breathing in? In our case, we are breathing in very deep pain. Not on purpose, and really not by our own doing. Yet, GOD is the anchor in our lives, and thankfully more often than not, we breathe in HIM and His love. He is there in the midst of the storms.

A part of us wants to scream, throw things, run away. In some respect, WE have done ALL of those things. But, yesterday it was reveled that we cannot run away from the storm, or just get over it. WE must in fact go through, to be made NEW. So today, I am receiving the gift to mourn. It sounds so strange to say that, or even type it. Because I never ever would have considered that a blessing. Yet, God’s word says it is.

This is not an easy topic for me. I did not wake up going, “YAY, I get to talk about how much THIS hurts.” But, God impressed upon me, that not only is it critical for my healing and ours, David and I together, it will help others. For I was reminded that He wastes no suffering. Have you ever considered suffering, in GOD could be a blessing? The enemy will put suffering on us, but remember even He has to seek God to do so.

A dear sister of mine was used to share some wisdom. She said, “God qualifies us. He said, consider my servant Job. He says the same about us. You are not only being considered for the job, you have been chosen.” It really changed my perspective. Not to say that it is easy, and there is no struggle. Because, that my friends would be a lie. But, what I can share is, it is definitely made easier, by leaning on GOD.

I ask forgiveness, if I indirectly put off the mourning process. I repent for getting defensive when people would tell me, it’s ok. They would say it’s ok to grieve. BUt, what they really meant, was not in relation to the spirit of grief, it was about mourning.

JOY comes in the mourning. Do you know how long we have cried out for JOY??? Because it has been a LONG time. For me personally it has been decades. I would cry so hard, my nose bled. In fact, over 36 times, in the last 2 years, I have wept that hard. So, when people say “You’re not grieving. I think huh???” In my head I’m going, “I have had the Garden of Gethsemane experience, many times.”

The hardest part about everything that has happened, is the pulling away GOD has done. There have been people, who could not handle His GLORY, who have run away, or tried to hitch a ride, and were adequately and swiftly removed by God. It would be so easy to get bitter, or overcome by sadness and nothingness. To just be saturated by the world, and discouraged on every single turn, would really be a piece of cake. But, David and I can’t do that.

It would be for one, so disrespectful to GOD. For two it really wouldn’t serve a purpose. Because it would just create more HELL in the process. Meaning, it would multiply death instead of life over to others. If we chose to ignore the healing that God is so graciously offering, we’d surely die, and quickly. Don’t you think that is the enemy’s plan?

I have friends and even some family who have confessed secrets to me. I go before God and ask HIM, “Why are they not coming to you with this?” I don’t mind people confiding in me. I repent daily, and rebuke gossip or anything not of God rearing it’s ugly head. I’m grateful that God is teaching me to be more quiet in spirit and even more teachable. But, having said that, “I am not God. I cannot fix the problem.” I can be loving, and a listening ear and often am, but right now it is hard to do so. I ask for patience please, as does David.

This is a time and season where GOD has stripped us pretty RAW. We asked to be made real, raw and relational. we asked HIM to make us bulletproof. What a process. Dear LORD in Heaven….only HE fully knows. SO many LOVE us, but don’t get it. which is totally ok. Because, ALL that really matter is, “God does.”

I pray these entries are healing for someone. I was thinking about a movie recently. A woman wrote a blog and no one responded. I wonder, “Is God using us to help others?” Yet, in asking this I didn’t realize that it was a prideful statement. I so repent of that. It seems ok, simple even. But, it was clouding my healing process. The healing that HE so graciously has gifted.

Lord, forgive us for any time we have directly or indirectly tried to do your job. YOU alone are GOD. You created us for a purpose, to LOVE and worship you, and to be used to share that holy LOVE. We reject the lies of the enemy this day. We lay down anything, be it emotion, thought, action, or something else, that might be hindering intimacy with you. LORD, you are the oxygen we need. When fastened unto you, the enemy will see a sign that says, “ACCESS DENIED.” Glory to you, Heavenly Father. Glory to you LORD JESUS. Glory to you HOLY SPIRIT. All honor and GLORY belongs to you.

In Jesus Holy Name and BLOOD,

Amen
