Month: July 2016

Good morning my wonderfully blessed World Wide family! I love you all so very much. It is such a privilege to be able to write to you nice and early this morning.  You are all precious and have such purpose and destiny in, because of,  and for the Lord. You are “World Changers for Him!”

Dear Lord, I pray for all of these Your children, (whether they are actual children in age or adults). Wherever they may reside in the world, Lord bless them and keep them and guard them with Your protection and Your angels. Let them know You Lord, personally and intimately and know Your joy which is their strength and Your peace that passes all understanding in Christ Jesus. I thank You that in You, we live and move and have our being. Draw all of Your people to You in a mighty way Lord Jesus Christ. Use us all Lord to usher in Your Kingdom on earth as it is in Heaven.  I ask this in Jesus Name and I thank You Lord.

Well I would like to express my deepest sympathy to ALL of the families who lost loved ones in the recent tragedies. I am so very sorry that this is happening in the world. To the families of the 2 gentlemen that were shot; I am so sorry that you are going through this deepest pain.

To the families of the police officers I am so sorry for your loss of heroes that lay down their lives daily to protect strangers and were even protecting the right of those who were protesting on that day.

To the father who spoke out about his son, I am sorry for your pain and loss of your son in a way that you could never even fathom until this incident unfolded.

To the wife of the first victim, when you spoke of your children seeing this on the media and your son broke down on TV,  that was heartbreaking. God be with you all and heal your brokenness.  It was sad to hear that everyone thought of him as a “Gentle Giant”.

To the family of the gentleman who were in the vehicle when this was taking place, I am so heartbroken for you. I heard that he had memorized the names of over 500 children that he worked with at the school  because he wanted them to know that they were special. Wow that is love. God heal you all.

To all of the families of the police officers I am so sorry for your loss. Your husbands took oaths to be modern day “heroes” when they became police officers.  They went out daily to protect and serve strangers that they did not even know to make the world a better place. No greater love is there than this that a man lay down his life for his brother. I am so extremely sorry for your losses. God bless and heal all of you.

To the father of the young man who was killed. I watched you on TV express your emotions that came from a place so deep in your soul that few of us have even  dared to go there. I am so sorry for your loss of your son on that day and your son that you raised that you did not recognize on that day. God heal you in your deepest pain.

I am not just speaking from sympathy. I can also speak from empathy. I have lost family members to death, even death by shooting and death while being a hero. I have known the pain of seeing a child go so far astray that you cannot even imagine and I know the pain of prejudice from multiple sides.

What I would like to share though is that none of this has defined me because God Himself has healed me. God Himself has set me free. (And those that I fell on my knees with tears streaming down my face day after day, week after week, month after month, year after year-praying for).

There were dark times, times when loneliness and loss enveloped me in its clutches. Times when the seconds seemed like days and the days seemed like weeks just to get through. But….I did get through. Only by the Grace of God Almighty. And You all will also. I will keep you all in my prayers and pray for PEACE. We need peace in this world. Thank You Jehovah Shalom for sending us Your Peace, Your Love, Your Son, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Hi world wide family. It is either very early in the morning or very late at night here right now where I am. I was busy doing some cleaning and God spoke to my heart and told me to stop what I was doing and to write to you all; and to one person specifically. He did not tell me who this one person is but that you would know.

Dear Lord God,  Thank You, that You still speak to us today through Your Holy Spirit. You also speak to us through Your Holy Word, the Bible. You also use anointed Pastors and Teachers. Thank You for chosing those people to teach us about You. Thank You for Christian Television.   You  lead and guide us in Your way and give us specific directions for our lives.

You are the Almighty God and Creator of the Universe, and at the same time,  You are our Abba, Daddy. Lord please bless all of these “family members” throughout the whole world to be able to know You intimately and to be able to experience this most awesome day by day, moment by moment fellowship with You Lord. I ask that You protect them all and all of their families wherever they may reside in the world and whatever their circumstances may be.

God bless our soldiers who sacrifice the days of their lives to protect us, people whom they have never met and to protect America. Protect them Lord.  Jehovah Nissi-be the Banner over the  lives of everyone of Your precious people and their families all over the world. I ask this in Jesus Precious Name. Thank You Lord! Amen. Glory! Hallelujah!

God told me that there is someone out there who is extremely sad and feeling overwhelmed by life. You feel that no-one cares for you, there is no-one to pray for you and that you are all alone in the world. (I know what this feels like, believe me.)  God told me to stop what I was doing and let you know that there are those who are praying for you right now, (I am one.) and way more importantly God Himself is there with You and Jesus Christ of Nazareth is in Heaven interceding for you.

ROMANS 8:34    …CHRIST JESUS IS THE ONE WHO DIED-MORE THAN THAT, WHO WAS RAISED-WHO IS AT THE RIGHT HAND OF GOD, WHO INDEED IS INTERCEDING FOR US.

Lord God touch the heart of your precious child right now. Let them feel Your overwhelming presence, Lord. Let them experience Your peace that passes all understanding, Jehovah Shalom. Touch them Lord. Fill them with Your perfect love and wisdom. Let them know that from this moment forth and throughout their life they will never ever be alone again because You see them, El Ra-ee and You are right there with them throughout eternity, Jehovah Shammah. Lead them and guide them into all Truth, and their destiny and purpose, Lord. Fill them with Your Holy Spirit and protect them.  I ask this in Jesus Name. Thank You Lord.

What an awesome privilege to be able to pray for someone else. And someday we will be able to meet in Heaven.

PHILIPPIANS 4:7  AND THE PEACE OF GOD WHICH PASSES ALL UNDERSTANDING SHALL GUARD YOUR HEARTS AND MINDS IN CHRIST JESUS.

Well, as I mentioned, I was doing some cleaning when God told me to stop what I was doing and write to you all and pray for someone specifically. During this break that I have had from Bible College and studying, the Lord has been working with me to clean my house from the inside out and clean my heart from the inside out. I have had problems at different times of my life of saving “everything”. I think this comes from experiencing times of poverty and having “nothing”.

I used to watch the TV show, ‘Hoarders’, and if those people weren’t going to benefit from the help they were offered, I sure was. (Thank you Hoarders Staff!) Seriously I was never like that but….I did/do save stuff. I do also love to give things away to people who may be able to benefit from them,  but sometimes I just don’t have the time to go through everything and it piles up. So since I have had extra time, God said, now is the time!

It has been a challenge. Both the cleaning out and letting go of the tangible  “memorabilia or memory stuff”-(some things from when my children were younger,  and my grandparents were older, and from my grandchildren). And it has been especially challenging to let go of “the emotional memories of past stuff” or hurts, and memories and failures and shortcomings and broken dreams and unfulfilled dreams. Although I have known for years that all of this has already been fulfilled in the Lord and He doesn’t just give me the answer to all of my  needs, HE IS THE ANSWER TO ALL OF MY NEEDS! Jehovah Jireh, my Provider.

Doing this cleaning with the Lord, Who cares for my spirit and soul and body has been an awesome experience.  God says He will give me beauty for ashes! So I give Him all of my ashes of hurts, brokenness, bondage and unnecessary entanglements and He gives me His beauty and freedom and purpose and destiny  for my life. I win! In Him!! Amen!

ISAIAH 61:3    TO ALL WHO MOURN…HE WILL GIVE BEAUTY FOR ASHES; JOY INSTEAD OF MOURNING; PRAISE INSTEAD OF HEAVINESS.

Jesus says that He and God will come and make Their home with me. The Scripture says the Holy Spirit lives in me.  I want both my physical home and the home of my heart to be clean and prepared for Them.

JOHN 14:23    JESUS REPLIED, “ANYONE WHO LOVES ME WILL OBEY MY TEACHING. MY FATHER WILL LOVE THEM, AND WE WILL COME TO THEM AND MAKE OUR HOME WITH THEM. “

1 CORINTHIANS 3:16     DO YOU NOT KNOW THAT YOU ARE THE TEMPLE OF GOD AND THAT THE SPIRIT OF GOD DWELLS IN YOU?

1 CORINTHIANS 6:19    OR DO YOU NOT KNOW THAT YOUR BODY S A TEMPLE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT WHO IS IN YOU WHOM YOU HAVE FROM GOD, AND THAT YOU ARE NOT YOUR OWN?

2 CORINTHIANS 6:16    ….FOR WE ARE THE TEMPLE OF THE LIVING GOD; JUST AS GOD SAID, “I WILL DWELL IN THEM AND WALK AMONG THEM; AND I WILL BE THEIR GOD, AND THEY SHALL BE MY PEOPLE.

   Well I must accomplish a little more cleaning before I go to sleep and then I will get up early for church. Yeah! I love it! I love the Lord sooo much! Until we talk again, I hope and pray that you walk with God in your personal intimate relationship with Him, fulfilling the destiny and purpose that He created you for. Its the most fabulous way to live. Then we all get to meet in Heaven one day and spend eternity together! God bless you all. I love you. Most importantly, Jesus loves you!

Hello my wonderful, beloved World Wide Family. I love you so much. I am so excited to be able to talk to you again at this time. Dear Lord please bless and keep this family of Your creation. Thank You Lord for protecting us and keeping Your angels around us wherever we are in the world. Thank You for being our Healer, Jehovah Rapha and our Provider, Jehovah Jireh. Thank You for giving us Your peace that passes all understanding even in the midst of the trials and tribulations that we may be enduring, Jehovah Shalom. We are already Victorious because of You, Your Grace and Mercy.  Thank You Jehovah Nissi for being the banner over our lives, families, homes, cities, schools, places of employment/industry, educational systems, entertainment industries, the arts, religion, governments, states, countries, continents. We worship You for Who You are: King of kings, Lord of lords, Magistrate of magistrates, the One and Only Great Potentate! Thank You that You call us to be Christ followers. Please touch hearts Lord to follow Your call so we can all fulfill the purpose and destiny that You created us for. Thank You in advance Lord. In Jesus Name, Amen. Hallelujah!

I was just sitting in a coffee shop thinking of the condition of all of us in this world. I started the day earlier in chapel praying for all of us in the world. Now I just wanted to share a few thoughts that I was having. I guess you could say I wrote a kind of a ‘Prose’. It is a little complicated but I will give it a try.

If Only This Was Real Life

If only this was real life, right here, right now and the whole world could enjoy this!

Sitting in a cool coffee shop, enjoying good food and excessive refreshing beverages. Thinking peaceful thoughts. Surrounded by people enjoying the same. But…..

I am enjoying this while my family members go to foreign soil to protect this for me, for you, for all of us here in America.

The milieu where they are varies. Some places are overheated, some dirty, some impoverished. The provisions are minimal at best. The sacrifices are maximal. The sacrifices they make for me, for you for us all. The sacrifices that their families make.

Not only my family members of course. All of the Military of the United States of America. Thank you to all of you. And to all of you who have gone before.

Yet while you are away protecting us, what are we doing here in America? Are we inviting the very evil that you are sacrificing to protect us from, to live here on our soil?

I am of course not talking about the innocent people of any race, creed, color or culture.  I am not referring to those who want to become Americans and dwell in peace. I am referring to the insidious, the plotters, the deceivers, the infiltrators.

Those with hidden and evil agendas. That have their roots and devices firmly planted in the pit of hell. Terrorists.

Yet do we embrace them? Are we trying to make laws that indicate that it is only “politically correct” that a certain percentage of them have a position in our government? What? Really? Are you serious?

Come on America! Wake up! Stand up! Wise up! Man up! Are we really more concerned about having a right to choose whatever bathroom we want to use than protecting our country?

God bless America. God help America. God please don’t leave America because of those who have done everything in their power to thwart Your Kingdom rule that is here on earth as it is in Heaven.

Lord, You say in 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, FORGIVE THEIR SIN AND ….HEAL THEIR LAND.

Lord we call upon You. Bring America back to You Lord. Revival! Restoration! Regeneration!  Bring the whole world to You Lord. Your inheritance….the Nations!

Happy 4th of July Americans! Thank you Military Soldiers, Founding Fathers-One Nation Under GOD! And thank you Christian Soldiers serving in the love of Jesus Christ!

Well those were my thoughts for today. I love you all. God bless you always. Jesus loves you. I know I still want to share the rest of my testimony with you. I will soon. Until we speak again I pray that you walk with the Lord.
