Month: August 2015

I am so excited to be writing to you again!  I have so much that I want to share from my heart. I was thinking today how absolutely exciting and fulfilling it is to live life with the Lord, with the actual Creator of the Universe. When I pray/talk to God, which is very often, I tell Him that I wish the whole world knew how AWESOME LIFE WITH GOD IS!  God told me that I should tell the world. This is what I want to do with this blog.

I want you all to know that whatever your sadness, emptiness or void is in this life, it can be totally and exceedingly, abundantly filled with God Himself! I heard a preacher say once that if God doesn’t give you the answer to your prayers that you think you need HE WILL BECOME THE ANSWER TO YOUR PRAYERS. God created us with this need before we were even born. It can be referred to as a “God shaped void” in our soul. It is an innate longing for our God.

Ephesians 3:20 says… Now unto him that is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us.  (This power is actually the Holy Spirit-we will talk about Him more in future blogs.)

When we aren’t aware that only God can fulfill this need we may try to fill it with relationships, expecting that the other person will make us complete. There is no other person that can make us complete but we can be complete in the Lord. Some may make  erroneous decisions to attempt to fill this void with drugs, alcohol, gambling, desire for excessive material possessions, illicit relationships or even becoming a work alcoholic.  These choices can actually cause us harm. They temporarily keep us busy and focused on extraneous issues that are not the real issue. We can exhaust ourselves and the real need remains unmet. This real need is our need for our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Jesus says in the Bible in John 14:6 “I am the Way, the Truth and the Life . No one can come to the Father (God) except through Me.”

It is my prayer for the whole world that we would all accept this truth by accepting The Truth Himself, Who is Jesus Christ; as our Lord and Savior and thus we can all spend eternity together in Heaven and shun the alternative which happens to be eternity in hell. The interesting thing is that WE make this choice ourselves. Imagine that. What an important decision…The most important decision for all eternity. This life here on earth is oh so temporary. Let’s live with ETERNITY on our minds and in our hearts.

God bless you all every moment of every day.

 

 

 

This is my second blog. Today is Wed., August 19th, 2015. It is so nice to be able to speak to everyone again!

Today I want to describe the reason behind the name of this blogsite: “Truth supercedes fact.”  To me this is such a fundamentally important issue. There is Truth and then there are facts.

For an example; say you go to the doctor and he gives you a report that you have cancer and it is large and the prognosis is not favorable. This is a medical fact.

At this point it is crucial that you do not “verbalize” that you have cancer and it is large and the prognosis is not favorable. You might ask “why wouldn’t I, this is what the Doctor just said, this is my diagnosis.”

The reason is this. “Truth Supercedes fact.” It may be a fact that you have cancer. However the Truth which is found in the Bible, which is God’s WORD; states the following (just to give a few examples, there are many). Isaiah 53:5 By His (Jesus’) stripes we are healed. (now that’s an excellent prognosis!)

The scripture also says in Psalm 103:2-4,  Bless the LORD oh my soul and forget not His benefits: Who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases, Who redeems your life from destruction.

Pretty awesome benefits we can receive from the LORD I think. I personally chose to believe the TRUTH instead of the fact that I had the aforementioned cancer when the doctor gave me the diagnosis .

Don’t get me wrong, I was compliant with all of my treatments. I had chemotherapy and radiation therapy and a massive surgery. But I know that it was my LORD and His WORD that healed me. One of God’s names that He refers to Himself as is Jehovah Rapha, the Lord is my Healer.

Now we all unfortunately know of people who had chemotherapy, radiation therapy and surgery and still passed away.

On the day that I was diagnosed they gave me a big packet of information to read about cancer and the therapies. I am in the medical field and even cared for cancer patients. I love to read and be informed about anything and everything.

At this time I threw the packet in the trash, prayed to God for healing and declared that this was just a test that would be part of a Victorious testimony. I looked up every healing scripture inthe Bible. I wrote them on index cards and posted them every where. I spoke them daily and memorized them.

This is when and how I became healed.  Today I am months away from 10 years cancer free. PRAISE GOD!

There are also verses that talk about what we speak from our mouths and how important it is that we speak words of life. Here are a couple: James 3:10 Out of the same mouth proceeds blessing and cursing. Proverbs 18:21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue.

Let’s be Life Speakers. We are Victorious in the Lord! …Good bye for now. God bless you all!

This is my first post on my very first blog.  I am totally new to this.  It has taken me hours and days just to get to this point of having and creating a blog.  This is not how I want it to appear but as I learn more I will enhance the aesthetics of my blog.

Believe me this was not my idea.  I could be classified as computer illiterate by worldly standards but I felt as if God gave me direction to create this blog.   Where God guides He provides.  (This will take a miracle from God, it is a good thing that God is the Maker of Miracles; as well as the Creator of  everything else and everyone.)

Philippians 4:13  I can do all things through Christ Jesus Who strengthens me.

I am a firm believer that everyone has a voice that should be heard, also that it only takes one person to change the world.  Look at just a few examples: First and foremost  Jesus Christ,  Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., President Abraham Lincoln.

To refer to some inspirational quotes that are important to me;  “I want to be the change that I want to see in the world”, (Ghandi),  and “If you are not a part of the solution, you are a part of the problem”, (my 4th grade math teacher).  However I need to make it clear that this blog will never be about me.  I am only doing this to attempt to bring my Lord glory and be His oracle.  I want to speak forth His Living, all Powerful WORD because it is written in;

Isaiah 55:11… So shall My Word be that goes forth from My mouth;  It shall not return to Me void.  But It shall accomplish what I please and prosper in the thing for which I sent It.

There have been some great changes in the United States of America both recently and in the last  60 years or so.  Each change seems to be America telling God that we no longer need Him and choose to live our lives independently of Him.  We started by taking prayer out of public schools.  Can’t we all see what has happened since this?

However please never think that this is a negative blog.  It definitely is not.  These are awesome times in which we live.  God chose us as His chosen generation to be living right here, (wherever we live) and right now, for such a time as this.  How magnificent is this?  And of course nothing that has happened or will ever happen will ever catch God by surprise, even if we are surprised by some events.  It has all already been written in His Book the Bible.

I John 4:4….Greater is He Who is in me than he who is in the world.

I am  a strong American Patriotic. I have been all of my life ever since I took history in elementary school.  I have had family members die in wars serving America, family members change the course of history in the military and currently have family members who I am very proud of, serving America in the military.  I have always fervently prayed for America, the Presidents and Governmental Officials and always will.  God instructs us to do this.

In addition to this,  my prayer to God is based on:

II Chronicles 7:14….  If My people who are called by My Name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and heal their land.

I would like to say that we definitely need to be running to God at such a time as this and not away from Him.  God I am sorry that we as American’s have gotten away from You and I pray that You bring us back to Yourself in a mighty way Lord.  Please bring  revival to America and the whole world. Bring us restoration and transformation so we can reach Heaven as our eternal destination as we accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior.  In Jesus Name Amen.  Thank You Lord!

Well that’s all for now.  I look forward to writing to you again.  I apologize in advance that I will not be able to respond to anyone if they should write back to me.  I do not have this capability. God bless you all!
