"For you shall go out [from the spiritual exile caused by sin and evil into the homeland] with joy and be led forth [by your Leader, the Lord Himself, and His word] with peace; the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands."
In our Journey called life—we are part of His beautifully made mosaic!
In our Journey called life—we are part of His beautifully made mosaic!
We each have a choice to make as to Who shall be our conductor.
When you do not keep His Purpose for your life in your sight, there are times in which we hear the leading of His Spirit but make a decision not to follow the directions of His Way made.
We then find ourselves looking around one day saying, “How in the world did I get here?” And 'Here' is not a place that God put us, but allowed us to put ourselves in order to teach us.
Some people want to learn the hard way, more than once. But many have too much fear in their hearts to obey His Love- to obey the Way that Jesus set for us to live in.
This would be a very good time to Stop and Pray to God asking for forgiveness and help to get you out of the mess you have gotten yourself into. He Will allow us to make up our own minds as to the best way to govern ourselves. Many times we are wrong and every time, He knows this—He is waiting for us to realize that we have made a mistake to come to Him for help getting out of what we have created.
Followig Jesus means that we are to be content within every condition of our life- to be content with the plans that the Lord has made for us. Growing and Learning through each lesson, each step is much easier than fighting your way through, which only puts you in a deeper hole of a problem than the one you started with. His loving consideration has left no small detail neither unchanged nor untouched by His Love for you — for any of us.
Trusting in His plan and His timing is what we are supposed to do. This is the power of His love—that we trust in—not human love that is filled with conditions and self-centered interests over others. So many find this hard to do-but actually it is always much harder to live without Him.
What do you have taking up room in your heart?
Have you thought about this?
If your heart of full of fears, negatives, anger, despair, regrets, and ‘your way’?
Many saved and filled people that profess to belong to Jesus, do not have His Love living fully in their heart. A lot of people are stuck, not growing, not being led by the correct person for their lives, and are not reading their Bibles, nor spending time with God and away from the things and people that He wants them cut away from.
Pray their eyes and ears that see and hear-Focus on Him. In Jesus Name.
Many people have no room to hold His Love in thei hearts. It is time to clean out your heart-to face your fears and to allow the truth that His Light provides pour into your heart All that will provide you with the Peace, Happiness, Joy, and desire to grow all from His Love.
In the absence of all that is hurting you, causing you pain, and lack—He Will fill in that space with HIMSELF!
To recieve A desire to Love and to Live for Him.
In The absence of fear you will know that your life is being Truly God-Conducted! This will bring you the greatest happiness and success possible.
In the absence of fear you will not ‘over think’ every point and direction—but will accept what He says to do by faith.
IN The absence of fear, His love will fill you up and flow from you all day every day-no matter what conditions that your life in within. Trust will grow and bear fruit for you in the absence of fear in your heart.
Do you find yourself looking around at the people that you have allowed to be in your life wondering, “What are you doing here? You are not adding to my life but always only taking!” Are you that type of friend to others in your life?
These may be friends, or intimate partners that we chose to bring into our lives, either way there is no balance involved – not being evenly yoked as we should be. IN any kind of relationship, we are to help each other grow, mature, love unconditionally, always with the focus of living for Jesus.
Do any of you see yourself in a situation like this? Or have you ever been?
It may be family members that we need to be separated from, it may be a job that God told you to leave in order to have a better one, it may be a life partner that you think you can change. We cannot change a person into who we want them to be. How many years have you prayed and waited for this person to change?
Has it occurred to you that you may be the one that God is trying to change? We have been chosen to be His-not the other way around. He made the decision as to who He wants to be in His family.
Many times God will direct us to make a move in order to prevent us from going through terrible messes and mazes that either we create or that evil has created. Have you gone against what He told you to do, and now find yourself in a jacked-up predicament?
To be able to obey Him is to love Him. Fear will make you do foolish things and along with fear is his partner pride; the both of them will put you in a place of hardship that Only the forgiveness and Love of God can get you out of. Fear will make you only follow Jesus when things are easy—in the absence of fear you Will be content to follow Jesus No matter what condition your life is in.
Many people chose to be with a person-(whether it be friends, family members, or an intimate partner)- for the wrong motives and feel they are trapped with this person. No one is ever trapped when you have all the power to leave in the name of Jesus.
Some people are too afraid of change, too afraid of being alone or so they think they will be, afraid of differences, in order to move past their current situation. Opting to stay in it hoping that it will change by itself for the Good when in fact it will not.
Living in this Journey called Life, many carry within their hearts misery, unhappiness, sadness and fear that will only waste their life and time that we have been given.
Whatever the situation you find yourself in, know that you are unevenly yoked, and nothing that you can do on our own will change the unevenness in order to create a balance that is healthy for all involved. You have to allow Jesus to take care of the messes and mazes—He is the Only One that can lead you out and into Freedom.
Prayer Works! Use IT Often! Praise Works! Use It Often!
He has taught us to bring everything to Him And He means EVERYTHING!
You will have to make up your mind and accept that only In The Absence of Fear will you be able to grow and live an abundant life as God has Spoken for us all through the Life of Jesus.
That absence allows Everything that Jesus has from God our Father, to be poured into you, to saturate your body, mind, heart, spirit and soul.
The Power of His Spirit cannot fail His Commands—Only we can stop His Spirit from Working on our behalf.
In the Absence of fear You Will be able to Keep His Purpose in your sight. By doing this you will not waiver, nor be able to allow anything else to be in your view or way. You will be dedicated to Him-you will show it by the way that you live, speak and think.
Remember, keep His Purpose in your sight No matter what is going on around you-no matter what other people say to you or do to you Or don't do, OR don't say-Keep His Purpose in your sight!
Another thing that fear does is make you think too much--Please, Stop 'over thinking' everything and Get out of His Way and Rest, in Peace with Joy and Obedience to His Will And His Purpose for Your life.
"Then Shall we KNOW, If we Follow on to know the LORD; His going Forth Is Prepared as the Morning..." Hosea 6:3
"I Have Set the LORD Always Before me; Because He Is At my right hand, I Shall Not be Moved!"- Psalm 16:8
Who shall be the conductor of your life? Who gave you the seeds that you carry to plant? If it was God, then Are you hoarding them, are you sowing them in bad ground and wasting them? Are you planting these seeds of His Love and then interfering with them, stunting their growth and ability to produce the Fruits of your labor?
We have been changed by the One Who watches All—it is not about a myopic, self-centered focus catered by fear and pride that keeps us in our own grief-focused on our own circumstances.
We are to look to His Spirit and be effective and efficient—to be prayerful and filled with And expressing a faith that always pleases Him—to always express our trust in Jesus, for all issues and concerns about life situations.
Have you not discovered that His Spirit is always with you to stand with you and is always More than those that stand against you?
Our Lord God is Always with those that are aligned with Him to fight our battles. His power that was given to us through our accepting Jesus is stunning to our foes, and will always last the length of the ordeal we face.
Our Lord God is Always with those that are aligned with Him to fight our battles. His power that was given to us through our accepting Jesus is stunning to our foes, and will always last the length of the ordeal we face.
Strength to Strength, Faith to Faith, Glory to Glory! Hallelujah! 2 Chr 32:7
Many of you have made a choice to allow your life to be placed in the Wise Hands of God. Your relationship is growing and is making fruit that will be pleasing to Him as your fruit will feed His sheep. In order to carry out this command from Jesus, we have to allow Him to feed us. We have to allow Him to
Tend to us so that we are able to tend to those He sends our way.
Tend to us so that we are able to tend to those He sends our way.
In the absence of fear you will be given knowledge of His mysterious plans and will walk with the Truth of His love as you live, believe and receive all that He desires to give you in order to pour out what others will need.
Feed His Sheep! That is our order from our brother Jesus.
To feed His sheep in any way He directs us to do.
Putting your own issues and concerns of self in His hands so that you have free hands to help those that He will send to you is the order of the day-Everyday!
When we frustrate His plans made for our comfort and happiness because ‘we think we know what is best for us’; we spoil our Journey with Jesus. It has been detoured because of fear and pride. Arrogance and disobedience will always cause more fear, pride, and unhappiness to grow.
When you feel yourself starting to 'over think' everything, Stop! Doing this disconnects you from the intimacy with our Lord-it disconnects you from The Power Source that we all need for Each Day—Every Day! You will find that He will remove His Hands and let you follow your own lead—and He is long-suffering and patient so as to allow us the time we need to realize that we have made a mistake.
But be aware, that every mistake does not come with a “do-over”. You can be forgiven, but to be able to correct the domino effect that many mistakes create will not always be possible. And again, your life changes because of fear, no faith, disobedience, and pride. Because you are not connected to the Power that Jesus died to give us. No relationship-no connection to Him-no Power Source.
Be careful that satan does not convince you to try and do the right thing the wrong way! Satan has no new tricks and that is an old one. You will be denied every time you try to do this. he will always try to trick you into taking what God has told you to do and then doing it your way instead of His way.
Think about your motives and the means and ways that you have done what He has directed you to do—have you followed His directions completely or have you added in your own thinking? Many times God will direct us to do things that seem to be so silly, or out of orde, or will really just make no sense to us—But when you follow His directions to the ‘T’—they Will Always Work!
Do you not see that we are all a part of God’s Mosaic for this world to witness His glory through? Are you one that always professes “that you know Jesus loves you”—but the question is, do you love Jesus? And if you say that you do, then why do you not obey Him? Every time?
Do your actions equal and reflect your love for Him?
Has God changed your heart? I think the real question is, do you want Him to change your heart? Or do you consider yourself a Christian only when it fits your need and motive?
Do you only call on Him and obey Him when you find yourself in a tangled mess –but not spending time with Him daily?
Are you sure you want to belong to His family? If so, then move out of the way and give Him full reign over and in Your life.
So many that belong to Him still live daily by “trying to figure things out” when troubles arise. Instead of praying it into His hands, using His Word to speak to their situation and to their flesh—they 'try to figure out' what they should do.
And when what we ‘feel’ we need to do is done and does not work—then some people actually get mad at God because they messed up. You know what I’m talking about?
You cannot be independent, relying on your own little intellect, your own little worldly achievements and material gain for your strength and power. Using these fleshy and worldly ways will not supply your every need. I wonder how long it will take some people to fully surrender to His Purpose and Will for their lives?
I am grateful that He is ever patient and long-suffering with us all. Amen.
There is no love of Him in a heart that is independent of Him. I have heard people say they belong to Him, that they love Jesus but they do not obey Him. They are not connected to Him through His Spirit that lives in Him. They may be tricksters, double-minded, or, want to belong without belonging-or, they truly have just been taught wrong about Who His is to them.
When God is the conductor of your life you are dependent on Him for everything. The greater your trust in Him the wider His scope will be for the plans He has made for your life.
In The Absence of Fear, you will see how your life is a part of the Mosaic planned and created by God through the access that Jesus granted us. Because Jesus was substituted for each of us we have been granted access to Heaven and to heaven here on earth=His Kingdom purposes.
We all have a part in the big plans of our Father. There is no small life or big life as far as He is concerned. We all play a pivotal role in His desire to share everything with us that He gave to Jesus. Every God-directed thought, impulse and action through you is necessary to the carrying out of His perfect design for all of our lives—our Journeys. God’s design of exquisite workmanship needs no correction by us—His creations.
I know I heard a few people confess that they belong to Jesus—they invited Him into their lives to fully be Lord over them. That they want Jesus to live in their hearts and want everything that He came to provide for us all; To dwell with Him and He with them. If this is so, then He has the authority over you and in you to use you as He sees fit to do so. Where love and truth lives in us we are to carry it everywhere we go—use them in everything that we do every day.
We are His vessels that carry Faith, Trust, Forgiveness, Growth, Maturity, Surrender to Him, Obedience, Beauty, Power, etc…
We have been called and told to live in His Love—to Be His Love-to Love Him no matter what the situations say to us.
We have been called and told to live in His Love—to Be His Love-to Love Him no matter what the situations say to us.
To be effective and of permanent value in our service to Him and all that He sends our way. For where they is love, self cannot hold power to sway your way. And serving self will be no good in Service to Him.
We need Him and He needs us. Though we may travel all over in search of-to find what is beautiful and loving, unless we carry love and beauty with us we will never find it anywhere else.
He is our lover, our friend, our mother and father, sister and brother, aunt and uncle—He is the Lover of our Soul and Heart! We can never make too many demands on Him- nor put too great a strain upon His love and forbearance for us—He Is our Supply—for all we require we have to claim His Love, His Joy, His Power, claim our obedience, claim His healing and His direction.
He created us from Him—He Is Love—and He created us In Love!
In The Absence Of Fear, You will allow the seeds that He planted in You to grow, mature and to bear much fruit for His Kingdom be done here on earth as it Is In Heaven.
In The Absence Of Fear, You will allow the seeds that He planted in You to grow, mature and to bear much fruit for His Kingdom be done here on earth as it Is In Heaven.
In the Absence Of Fear….the seeds that He has given to you to sow-plant, Will grow and bear much fruit. Glory be to God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, Amen!
When the darkness of fear and dismay comes your way-endure Through it until the Fire of His Love re-kindles your heart—spreading through your body and soul—then you shall know that out of it will come that Unspeakable Joy because you follow Jesus no matter what! Your Expression of Faith and Trust in Jesus is All that God needs to manifest His Power for you—Faith and Trust are the keys that allow you to Expect Him! Rise up in your faith and trust—You Will Not be denied! Deut 31:6
I know of many that are taking care of a sick, or elderly loved one. This can be difficult at times. These are not the situations that I speak of- these will require you to move closer to dwell closer to Jesus so that He will be able to dwell and move closer to you. Those of you that are the care takers of the sick and elderly in your lives, you have been given an assignment that will change your lives for the Good- forever!
There is no other friend than one who will lay their life down for you! And if you have laid your life down for a sick or elderly relative, friend or even a stranger, then you are more like Him today than at any other part of your life!
Love, even when you are tired and need a break-be compassionate to help the person enjoy the days left in their life.
Grow, even when you are tired of all the changes and transitions that God can and sometimes will put in your life-back to back. Ever the Father to Always Want His children to be the best that He created them to be. A lot of times God's opportunities don't always start out looking like Divine Opportunities--But they Are!
Serve them as You also serve Him—and You will find that He is with you at every turn providing all that you need-His Love!
I John 4:8; Col 3:13
