WHEN LOVE IS SCARCE pt 2


"For God did not send the Son into the world in order to judge (to reject, to condemn, to pass sentence on) the world, but that the world might find salvation and be made safe and sound through Him.” (John 3:17)

When Love is Scarce in people’s lives, they take on the Identity of one that has love and sows love, but they never do the work that is asked of them. They continue in their own agenda. They continue to seek their own way.

Putting their lives in human hands--keeping their lives in their own hands--either way leads to hatred, fear, and failure after failure.

Even Jesus did not give Himself over to His disciples-for He knew their hearts!

I know that God will send us into places and spaces that we may not want to go to. We are sent to represent Him. I tell you, there are a lot of Identity Thieves already at the places and spaces where He seeks His lost sheep. They call themselves Followers and doers of His Gospel, but their actions do not match their spoken identity.

The Praying Activist......Hears the Shepherds Call to Pray, pray, Just Pray for them all!

I don’t want to be around them when they begin their judging and have eyes that see but they can’t see that I or other lgbtq’s of Faith in Jesus also belong to the same family of Faith they do.


They have it confused-we are born who we are whether we are glbtq or straight, white, black, male, female, asian, latino, jewish, etc... because of God's decisions--But we chose to be a Christian!
We All were Adopted in His Family through the Blood of Jesus, not just those who think that only they should belong.

We, His Sheep know His voice, whether we belong to your fold or their fold or He gave us our own fold--We know His Voice and we follow Him.

I know that some are mis-educated about Who God is and Who they are in Him. Most are led by fear; sad broke down Christians that are drowning in shallow water. They are rebellious Children of God. I know even though many times through mistakes we don’t look like His Children, we are. And I leave their correction in The Father’s hands.

Many others that claim to belong to God, have committed Identity Theft, and have just jumped on the band wagon following those they think are correct because of traditions, dogma, and because of the larger number of people hating other people they must be right – right? No.

And when I am led to be around them I know it is because of a plan that the Lord has designed to live out. For His Will, not mine Be done.

Through the years, many of these church going Christians that spread lies and foster hate in the name of Jesus have stopped growing in their relationship with God or never began one.

They got saved and confessed Jesus as their Lord, but just stopped learning and allowing Him to change them-probably because as soon as you confess Jesus as your Savior, the enemy will come around to steal the seeds that have been planted in you—to create some trouble to see if you really will stay with Jesus.

To see what will make you give up and turn back to the world’s ways.
That’s our enemy’s job—to test us with trouble. Living by Faith in God does not mean that trouble will not happen—it means that in the midst of trouble and trials, you know by Faith that you will succeed because Jesus is With you.

Somewhere that teaching didn’t happen for many who give their lives to God. And instead of allowing God to make the decisions for their lives, they hand themselves over to a wrong teacher who is teaching with false credentials and a stolen identity!

Growing in His Love and Grace—being changed by Him- is a process that is day by day, with many of the lessons and transitions needing time to develop in and through us.
Some never accepted Jesus as their savior, (though they may have said they do- Identity Theft), they have never given their life to God, and they have never accepted the Spirit of God to live within them.

So many do not read His word for themselves, they do not dwell with Him nor His Spirit in order to be taught and guided-- They disobey God and the leading of His Spirit—and in turn, they focus on all the other things and people and issues of the world- trying to bully others to come to God. They would make better use of their time facing the hard truths that they need to Correct about themselves—Communing with Jesus in order To better themselves.

We all that confess our dedication to Him, are to Examine Ourselves daily, to make sure that we are still aligned with His Spirit.

Are you a repairer of the Breach?

Through the years, they sit in their churches and with lgbtq people sitting right there every Sunday serving God in the name of Jesus, spewing hatred about them and say that this is God’s will. And then, they turn a blind ear and eye to the blatant oppression that goes on in their churches toward the other cast aways- women, children. There are social ills so prevalent in their Houses of Worship and in their houses of living. It is out of order to go and try to bully open and clean someone else’s house and ignore what is going on in your own home.
Or what is not going on.

For many years, people that live life afraid, always following what everybody else is following-not checking things out for themselves, living to be seen as whatever is popular; are always sought by false teachers, preachers and prophets who are living afraid, following fear and flesh. This is living in mental slavery- they are not free in their minds and not as free physically as they profess to be. And I pray in Jesus’ name for them to live physically free and mentally free.

There are just too many people that lie on God and they make a mockery of the Gospel of Jesus. All the while pushing more and more of the very people that Jesus seeks daily to bring to Him, away from the Love that God desires to give to them-to give to us All.

I understand why so many people, whether they be straight, or lgbtq are driven away from God. But you have to learn about Him for yourself! You have to have a relationship with Jesus for yourself!

And I have to wonder just how much ‘with God’ are these people – how much of Him (if any of Him does), lives in them if they can find so much hate and violence to speak. If they truly have His Spirit living in them—where is the room for such negative and wrong understanding? There can’t be sweet and sour coming from the same heart—spoken by the mouth. Lips that oppress, lie and teach hate do not live for Jesus.

When Love is Scarce in people’s lives, many people know His Word, but do not live it.

There are so many black lgbtq people that are scared to come out of their glass closets because of the distrust of the churches they have grown up in and the false doctrine that many have had forced down their throats for years. That saddens my heart to know that people have misrepresented Jesus to so many people that reached out to Him to be saved, delivered and for eternal salvation—only to be rejected, called names, have judgments passed against them and to have lies spoken about them. I know why they do not trust anyone coming up talking about the Gospel of Jesus Christ—why they are narrow eyed as they protect their ears when a follower approaches them.

I really dislike the fact that I have to say I’m a Christian, ‘but not one of those hating Christians’. There should be no division but for all the years that Christianity has been around—there have been these divisions between the flocks.

I know the challenges are yet to come—and what I have already been through has prepared me for what is to come. And at all times I have His Spirit to guide me through all places that I follow Him, as He continues to look for His lost sheep.

Lord I pray for your sheep, those that are wrong and those that you daily seek to come back Home to You.

The information that I speak of is all of the hatred that is being thrown, spoken, given, thrusted, and sown throughout our world. At these times my Spirit shuts down my natural self and I go to the Father in the name of Jesus, and ask for the same strength, the same comfort, the same wisdom, understanding and knowledge that He gave to my brother Jesus when He got to this point.

If I don’t go to Jesus and ask Him to teach me more about how to deal with all of this then it will spew out of my mouth, (like a backed up toilet), and my actions against those that I love so dearly; first in our home, then to all those that God has sent that make up my community of Faith in His Son; I would begin to do what I see and hear ‘they’ do to others. Hatred is a sickness created by never letting go of confusion, hurt, pain, low self-esteem, revenge seeking, and wrong teaching.

Those that claim Him as their savior are to yield to His Spirit so that His Spirit will flow through them. That is what we were called and chosen to do.

Granted I know that everyone will not listen to His Gospel, for various reasons; but that is no reason to judge them or cast them aside or beat them up with out of context scriptures.

Wrong teaching pops up everywhere that one can learn from.
That would tear me apart to know that I allowed myself to be reduced to such a low human level of a selfish, confused, self-hating, pride filled, hurting and ego controlled person.

And Not a child of the Most of God.

I must pray for the people that inflict such venomous hatred toward the Children of God. Some do this in the name of Jesus. I pray for the same people that inflict this same venomous oppressive hatred and violence on non-believers in Jesus.

They are living in fear and through misunderstandings about Who Jesus Is and what is His Purpose. He never came here to spread hatred and violence-but to Free those that are slaves to this worlds ways, and to reconcile All by Faith into His Family with God The Creator and Father of us all.

Then I pray for the people that are on the receiving end of all that which is not of God.

I have to talk to Him about the world’s misunderstanding of Him. He has chosen His vessels that will show their love of Him and seek to bring about an understanding between Him and those that we meet that love Him not.

They are so wrong. So Very Wrong are they.

This I know not from who they say they are, but by their actions as they are contradictory to who they say they are. Which is always the case with Identity Thieves.


When Love is Scarce all you have is hatred and are living in a Spiritual Death.

I do not believe that Christianity has failed, not at all. Too many people are trying to live the Christian Life in the Light and Teaching of His three years’ Mission alone. This was never His purpose here. This is not how others see Him through us.

He came to reveal His Father (our Father)-to show the God-Spirit working in man. He taught, not that people were only to attempt to copy Jesus of Nazareth, but that people are to be so possessed by His Spirit, the Spirit of actuating All that He did. That we would be inspired to do just as He was.

By the Power of God’s Spirit.
He told us to follow Him by the Power of the Indwelling Spirit which He bequeathed to us all that have claimed Jesus as our Lord and the Son of God.

This Spirit-the Only Holy Spirit Will guide us all into All Truth! (John chapter 14 & chapter 15; John 16:12-15)

In John chapter 16:12-15 Jesus told His disciples that His time was running out, that He could not tell them all He wanted to—His time was short and they were not mature enough –they did not have the Holy Spirit dwelling in them yet.

He said that He would put everything in the Spirit and that the Spirit of God would guide them. This is where many of His followers fail Him; so many do not Dwell with Him in the Spirit-Guidance which is promised to all but claimed and lived by so few.


John 13:34-35 (Amp Bible)
34I give you a new commandment: that you should love one another. Just as I have loved you, so you too should love one another.
35By this shall all [men] know that you are My disciples, if you love one another [if you keep on showing love among yourselves].

My partner and I met with 2 other lesbian women of color lgbtq activist on last Thursday, we began to create a working plan to educate college black lgbtq students and straight students as to why they need to ban together for total Equality for all lgbtq’s.

On the way home, I was able to see a new place and space the Lord is leading me to be.

Another Work to do- another hat to wear - The Praying Activist.

I came home and read a wonderfully written article that added confirmation to things that the Lord had spoken to me years ago and has been speaking to me about for the past few months. This post is from Terrance a blog partner of Pam Spaulding at pamshouseblend=This link leads to part 2 - Terrance has a pt1 link provided.

ALSO, please read this post by Pam at PamsHouseBlend, it is right in point and will allow you to delve deeper into your own ideas of Civil Rights Education for All People. A person who cannot realize that the ways in which they have been taught to see the world may be skewed and wrong, and then will not proceed to re-learn the the Truth; will be one that has no one to turn to for help when 'they' come after them.


Through my Faith in Jesus Christ, The Father has accepted me into His Family. (Not through some human approval, but by The Father Because of Jesus!) I don't know about any of you, but I am Extremely Glad that my acceptance into His Family has nothing to do with human approval!

None of us would get in if that were the case.

And I am glad that I have the gift of Forgiveness and the Gift of GoodBye when I am rejected via another’s ignorance about Who God Is!

God’s Love is Not scarce in my life-what about you?
He said if you love Him you will obey Him…Well….?


Howard Thurman spoke a great truth concerning the Purposes of Jesus’ work.

Howard Thurman (Jesus and the Disinherited, p 88)

"Hatred is death to the spirit and disintegration of ethical and moral values. Above and beyond all else it must be borne in mind that hatred tends to dry up the springs of creative thought in the life of the hater, so that his resourcefulness becomes completely focused on the negative aspects of his environment. The urgent needs of the personality for creative expression are starved to death…

Jesus rejected hatred. It was not because he lacked the vitality or the strength. It was not because he lacked the incentive. Jesus rejected hatred because he saw that hatred meant death to the mind, death to the spirit, death to communion with his Father. He affirmed life; and hatred was the great denial.”

“There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear; because fear hath torment”. 1 John 4:18

WHEN LOVE IS SCARCE pt 1


LIVING MY LIFE UNAFRAID-THE PRAYING ACTIVIST


10:21 "The lips of the [uncompromisingly] righteous feed and guide many, but fools die for want of understanding and heart."


Through my Faith in Jesus Christ, The Father has accepted me into His Family. (not through some human approval, but by The Father!)
I don't know about any of you, but I am Extremely Glad that my acceptance into His Family has nothing to do with human approval!
None of us would get in if that were the case.

When His planned timing has arrived, the Lord will bless you with so much of what you have asked for. Daily, I ask for His Truth to be told to me and to allow His Truth to be spoken through me as I live to serve Him. And He does.

I have learned to block the noise of this world out And to Rest in Him and to always choose Patience over anxiety, and I am rewarded every time. I have gotten to a certain point of growth and preparedness, which intersects with His Timing, He releases so much. There is no other way for me to sum it up, other than He gives So Much!

When you Dwell with Him and you have reached a point of growth and preparedness, and this place for you intersects His Timing, then He will also release unto you, So Much! The Wisdom of the Holy Spirit, is the Lord’s and will be a Flood Gate opening up and a Rush of Him falls on me and I absorb Him. But, how it happens is from the inside out, not from outside of us inward.

When you stop living by your desires and live by His desires for you-you have within you the Spirit of His Wisdom. This is the result of Living with and for Him.

(Isaiah 11:2). His Spiritual Wisdom is the ability to use His Knowledge correctly. Jesus made unto each of us His Wisdom
(1 Corinthians 1:30) and we are growing daily in it and in revelation ("For I always pray...that He may grant you a spirit of wisdom and revelation [of insight into mysteries and secrets] in the [deep and intimate] knowledge of Him..." Ephesians 1:17 AMP.

So, I can't find where we are to serve Him by being hate filled and oppressive and withholding of human equality to people as so many people who claim to belong to Jesus are doing. Some do it outloud, others do it quietly behind closed doors. Rejection is Rejection, hate is hate, and sooner or later it will be revealed where it lives.

I Pray all the time-not just for myself and my family—but for His Family-And I praise Him all the time. No matter what the problem, what war, what disagreement, No matter What - This is the way I am able to be Still and allow God to be God. (Psalm 46)

One way that I serve God is by being a Praying Activist. To live my life unafraid even amongst the wolves dressed up as His children, (identity theft ) and to Know that by Faith I am part of His family(Gal.3:26)-no matter what Any hate filled person says or does toward any of us lgbtq believers or non-believers. They have nothing to do with my relationship with Jesus-that decision was mine to make and mine to Keep-my mind is Made Up and Nothing and No One can move my Love from Him-nor His love away from me.

I stand with Him even beside the suspicious, hurting, pain filled, rejected, and oppressed lgbtq hearts that Jesus is seeking to bring Home to Him-those that have been turned off from God because the way they have been shown God, Jesus and His Holy Spirit is through actions of hatred, oppression, and violence. Not through the expression of His Love. But really now, can a person show you what does not live in their hearts? No they cannot. What you see and experience, are the truths of What Does live in their hearts.

So much of this ‘fight’ we lgbtq’s believers And non-believers are within now; reminds me of how the blacks had to fight (And Still have to), for their freedom from the white slave owners, and those that created Jim Crow. Fighting to be counted And recognized And respected as God Made human beings, not to be owned by any other human. This also reminds me of the Equality fights that all women went through in order to be treated as human beings owned by no one.

And please, spare me the “ you can’t use the black civil rights fight in comparison with what the lgbtq community wants”
Why not? I’m a black women—it’s a big part of my history-my ancestor's went through, died for, and lived to tell just like yours.
It’s mine to use, as it belongs to all blacks and All people if it will encourage them to fight for their freedom from oppression and modern day slavery!
When Love is Scarce in people’s hearts and lives: there is no personal relationship with God Through Jesus to be seen.
In order to ‘bring’ people to God, Love has to be shown- expressed at all times; In our homes, to our children, to our partners, in our Houses of Worship, toward those that have and don’t have, toward strangers, toward loved ones, toward co-workers, and toward the earth.

Non-believers will not see God through us-if people don’t have a personal relationship with Him, in which they learn Him below the surface of spouting off Scripture out of context at people they do not understand which makes them fear what they do not understand. (Doesn’t that sound just like the people that just didn’t understand that God created black people and we have more In common than not? Isn’t that what a lot of blacks kept saying and still do to this day?)

It is something else to me to see all these black people spewing so much hatred and misrepresenting Jesus as they are doing. All the people they are hurting and causing so much pain. How can so many people lose sight of their recent past-how can any of us forget such a painfilled past I ask myself?

Us, that have been so violently oppressed and we STILL are in many cases today under some form of oppression as black people in America- We All should be living to kill off every injustice we witness!

What I have learned about God, is that living with fear, with doubt, and without love, no one will be able to express the Gospel of Jesus Christ Truthfully and Wholly to anyone; they will only turn away those that He is seeking after to save and welcome into His Family.

I understand that where I stand is in between 'those' that say we have chosen to be this way-that we are living in sin and God hates us-- And 'those' that are born as I have been born, (Given life by God), but have closed ears to what He speaks through me and others because of How they were taught Who He Is.

And I have no doubt that by His timing the Truth that He speaks will gather unto Him those lost sheep that He seeks.

When Love is Scarce in people’s heart and life, it shows. No matter what they call themselves, their actions will always speak louder than their words, and in the end they will have to see that they have fooled no one but themselves.

I am not here to force Jesus on anyone—lgbtq or straight, believers and non-believers. Everyone will come to know Him one way or another through His Truth and His Light. But I will continue to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ; to pray for all that He seeks to come unto Him, to allow myself to be His vessel of Truth and to Serve Him as He directs me to. And sometimes I will use words! Amen!

I will continue to pray for His Strength and Justice to be with all that are fighting against Injustice, I will not argue and fight with anyone about how God made me, nor will I argue with anyone about His Words that He inspired people to write down. I and a few others like me are taught to listen and be guided by His Holy Spirit, along with reading the Word and living what He said to live to the best of my ability.

We all make mistakes-the difference is learning from them, and forgiving yourself for making the ones that you have.


I must have missed the memo in which God set about to ask each of us what we wanted to be before He put us in our mother’s wombs. When did God ask anyone if they wanted to be Black, White, Asian, Spanish, Greek, Jewish, male or female, straight, lesbian, gay, transgendered, or queer? Did He take a poll and ask if we wanted to be born on a certain socio-economic level, in a certain state or country, with certain types of parents? No, He did not and He does not to that.
He chose who we are to be in the physical and in the Spiritual - not us.


When Love is Scarce in people’s hearts and lives: there is no personal relationship with God and Jesus being fostered.

My heart becomes heavy at times. When I take in too much of the worlds information-my heart becomes burdened, tears begin to fall, and the aching starts to expose itself. The hatred that is preached (by some so called Christians-it's like identity theft ) as His Gospel is appalling to my Spirit and saddens my heart. The spewing of such oppressive, hate filled words, purposefully creating divisions and the emotional, Spiritual, Religious and intellectual abuse that happens in Some black and white churches, is an injustice to His Gospel. Living by fear is not of God nor is that the Way lead by His Spirit.

And all the while crime is rising, violence against women is rampant, child abuse is outrageous! People are really being tested because of who, what and why they have put their trust in material things and people.

And, the lack by this country to recognize that the constitution speaks to ALL American Citizens is baffling to me. I am really glad that Obama is President, but Obama really needs to do the right thing and reveal all this injustice that is served to us as truth for what it is-Oppression backed And kept alive, by the lack of the U.S Gov. to Speak up for the truth and make the laws in support of full equality for lgbtq’s. Like the moves they made here.

I can't say that my partner and I want to get married right now, but if we decide to--then it does not have to be in any church--but if the magistrate an marry straight people by law--then he/she should be able to marry my partner and me.

Just as past presidents have had to speak up for blacks and women (and others), as American Citizens of this Country who were prohibited from enjoying the Pursuit of Happiness and Freedom because of random ignorant people that joined together in all their wrongness to increase their numbers against Justice for All.

And the First Nations peoples are still waiting for their Justice to be revealed.

These people have chosen to focus their time, energy, works, thinking, speaking and prayers to further push so many away from God-while the whole time saying they are doing God’s work. I did not read any of their actions and words in the Gospel of Jesus Christ, as the Work that He told us to do in His name. I must have missed that memo also.


When Love is Scarce in people’s lives, I cannot find it in my heart to hate those that hate me.

I could not find it in my heart to hate the white people that have done me wrong years ago, nor last week. I cannot find it in my heart to hate the people that treat our special needs daughter like trash because of her differences. Not just the adults who jack up the ‘system’ created to help handicapped/disabled people, but Also their children. The children who have either, never been shown any, or shown too little of God’s Love to learn from It and live It.


They Are living what they have been taught at home= to make fun of differences and find all wrong in them, to laugh at and fear what they don’t understand and then, not to learn about what they don’t understand. To sum it all up—if you have not been brought up in a foundation of positive nurturing and whole Love, then you will hate. I understand how people are taught to hate-the lack of love, selflessness, and truth in their lives makes room for so much hate.

Nor can I find it in my heart to hate some black people that have treated me terrible years ago, and last week; because I happened to be born a lesbian who is a light-skinned black woman and they have been taught to hate what is not like them.

I will stand on God’s side every time, seeking Justice for all that are oppressed. I will speak up, stand up, pray and praise Him – whatever His Spirit leads me to do—I will do.

It's a Very Good thing, that our Home Trusts In and has Faith In The Lord God Almighty- I understand why Jesus said, that He would not turn Himself over to His disciples.

TO SEEK NO MORE MY OWN WAY *pt 1*


2 Corinthians 3:17
"Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty (emancipation from bondage, freedom)".(
A)


My friends, I have learned and I know that I and my family are resting so safely in our Fathers hands-worry cannot invade my heart.

This Resting is my Trusting in His Divine Order that He has spoken over and in my life. I have ceased my activity as that is to distrust Him. If you do not have the knowledge that He is working for you-you will not rest.

Lay Hold to the Truth that His hand is not short And that it can save us all. Delight yourselves in this truth! For such a truth is a rope of Hope flung to all that are drowning in shallow waters!

Lay Hold to this Truth, Pray it, and affirm it-HOLD on to it as it is the Rope – Your life line! Amen!

So many are foolish to try and save themselves from the pit they have fallen into.

Their attempts to with one hand hold onto the rope and with the other make an effort to swim ashore! Don’t you know that to hold on to the rope will hinder the efforts to save you by the rescuer? Who must act with greater caution so not to lose hold of you and you go under and drown.
Our life is not made up of only storms and tempests-there is so much beauty and abundant love that goes into us each and every day. True, there are Many that do not guard their hearts—who do not know or care about it being the "well spring of life." They do not see or care about that what is in our hearts is what we become!

The bread that they have cast on the water is exactly what they will receive back into their lives.
If you cast love-you will receive love back.

If you cast selfishness, anger, self-centeredness, violence, hurt, pain, rejection; that is what will come back to you.

The Psalmist who learned and wrote down the Truth that he learned said, “All thy waves and thy billows are gone over me" (Psalm 42:6-8 (in Context) Psalm 42 (Whole Chapter)

Also wrote,

"He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings." (Psalm 40:1-3 (in Context) Psalm 40 (Whole Chapter)

Hold on to this truth-meditate on this awesome wonder. Let me show you what I mean.

And before I do, let me first tell you this; Yes, it is important to learn how to live for Him and with Him while we are still in these fleshy, human bodies alive on His earth--part of my Work is to help prepare you now while here - to get to and Live in Heaven, as no one will live here forever!

There are three steps in the Scripture (above) that speak Rest, Faith and Truth about our Father and His promises.

Safety, Security and Guidance.

(1) "He brought me up also out of an horrible pit" - Safety.

(2) "He set my feet upon a rock" Security

(3) "He established my goings" - Guidance.
No. 3 is the final stage when the saved soul trusts Him so entirely that it seeks no more its own way but Daily leaves all future plans to God, its Rescuer.

No matter the problem, the storm, the issue, the situation, the circumstances and no matter how you got there—Call on the name of the Lord to come and see about you then when He does=Rest in His hand.

You cannot hope for the best but secretly expect the worse!

Learn this truth= that every crisis is an Opportunity for God to expose His Power in and over your life—Jesus Is YOUR HELP!

"The eternal God is thy refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms." Deuteronomy 33:27

THE CRY OF MY HUNGRY HEART!


“I will give thanks to the LORD with my whole heart.
I will tell of all Your marvelous works. I will be glad and rejoice in You. I will sing praise to Your name, O Most High."
Psalm 9:1-2
**I pray that you will be blessed through the Lord pouring out of me, all that He says you are in need of. Amen!**

My hungry heart cries for More of Him. He looks to satisfy the hungry cries of my heart, and I welcome His increase in me. He directs us to reflect Him, so that the seekers will see Him in us—see Him in each of His followers.

Daily we accompany Him as He journeys to find His lost sheep all the while teaching us what we do not know. He satisfies the cries of His follower’s hearts.

There are days when All I have Is my Joy, my Peace, all I have is Rejoicing, combined with His Grace And Love that has been sent forth before me. And I have More Than Enough!

Even though those that claim they love me and care for me, abandon me or deny me--I Have More Than Enough!

Even though my enemies plan attacks against me and I see no true friend fulfilling their words of love for me, coming to help me-I Have More Than Enough!

And, I have more than enough to forgive those that speak words of love, but do not have love in their hearts and their actions toward me-I forgive them and I Thank the Lord for helping me as well as those that deny and abandon me in my times of need.

I pray His Wisdom be upon me so that when those that deny and abandon me are in need, that I shall be there to help them-- to comfort them, In the Name Of Jesus I Have More Than Enough!

Who ever has done you wrong by abandoning you, rejecting you, or denying you-I encourage you to forgive them-allow His Peace and Love to heal your hurt and pain, disappointment and sadness so that you will grow and not hold onto any of what will suck the life right out of you!

"For God is not unrighteous to forget or overlook your labor and the love which you have shown for His name's sake in ministering to the needs of the saints (His own consecrated people), as you still do.” (Hebrews 6:10)

As John rejoiced when he pointed his disciples to Him with his brave and humble words; “He Must Increase, and I Must decrease!” So do I speak And live by the same truth.

We are to go on in each day in whole hearted Faith and Love experiencing the opportunities that following Him shall always provide. By faith do we access His Power to joyfully allow His light to shine through us.

Strength that never gets weary to pray do I have. He has spoken upon us that incessant, persistent prayer is our duty as His disciples by faith are we granted access to His Power to do all that He has done and More.

Only through earnest supplication and calm Trust will the results be revealed and we learn strength and gain His Peace concerning all that troubles our hearts. The Faith to be Healed-do you have this?

If you don’t go through, confronting every trouble, trial and tribulation, how will you know if you have the Strength to conquer-if you never use it? If you never trust Him by faith how will you know the truth about Him?

My jeep has an engine but If I just sit in it holding the key, it will never take me anywhere. So is it true with Faith-if we never use our faith (turn the faith on-walk by faith-expect Him by faith), how will we ever be moved forward by Its Power?

We should always pray without ceasing. Prayer changes All. Prayer re-creates. Prayer is irresistible. So we SHOULD pray, literally Without ceasing!

I pray until I end up moaning, humming, and singing unto Him. I pray because my trust in Him has become so rock-like that I know there is no other way to carry me to the breakthrough that He has supplied. I pray because it is like breathing- it is my first language-And I am not able to resist its purpose and power over my life!

With my whole heart, I pray until It becomes praise-the note that only true prayer is able to end on. This then turns my sorrow and sadness into Love And Laughter-Praising Him for His intimate touch to my heart as He answers the cries of my heart.

Thank You My Lord Jesus, Amen!

"Men ought always to pray, and not to faint." Luke 18:1

“I will give thanks to the LORD with my whole heart.
I will tell of all Your marvelous works. I will be glad and rejoice in You. I will sing praise to Your name, O Most High.”
Psalm 9:1-2

SHARING WITH HIM THE ACCEPTABLE GIFTS *pt2*

My friends,
As we continue to learn what Gifts will be acceptable to Him And to Offer to Him our acceptable gifts, our Faith grows in Him.

The Peace that He left us is not in the absence of chaos and trouble but it is in the Presence of Christ Jesus standing with us, within the midst of chaos and trouble, doubt and fear.

Knowing He Is With Us, there is no way that our enemy can stand in the middle of what concerns us.

As he is Not Able to be around when we have called on Jesus to help us out and through each fear, each, trouble, each chaotic storm, and each difficulty.
My hungry heart cries for more of Him. He looks to satisfy this hunger and I welcome His increase in me. He directs us to reflect Him, so that the seekers will see Him in me—see Him in each of His followers. To daily accompany Him as He journeys to find His lost sheep all the while teaching us.
There are days when All I have Is my Joy, my Peace, all I have is rejoicing, combined with the Grace that has been sent forth before me. As John rejoiced when he pointed his disciples to Him with his brave and humble words; “He Must Increase, and I Must decrease!”
So do I speak the same truth. We are to go on in each day in Faith and Love experiencing the opportunities that following Him shall provide.

How large is your faith? How deep is your faith?
We know that God is Larger than any natural and temporal problem-this is a truth. Is your faith in Him larger than the problem that faces you? Even if it is small, make sure that you have growing Faith in Him-a hunger to have large faith will be answered by His love.

As far as you have come walking with the Lord, as far as His love has grown in you-changing you; we cannot allow the monsters of the Id, nor the workers of iniquity to convince us and lead us into doubt, fear, and despair; to steal our Peace, our Rest and our Joy. To conquer self is the beginning of all victories in this Journey with Christ.

Our Spiritual experience with God through a relationship and our experience with Jesus requires our involvement.

Our whole hearted prayers, our wholehearted worship, our whole hearted obedience; and our whole hearted committment to be changed, to be teachable in order to Allow His Love to become the center of our heart, our life, our thinking, and actions.

That is what His love is doing when He changes us. He begins with our focus, our move from self centeredness to God centeredness. From this root do we continue to grow and all that He has planted in us will be revealed through our daily connection with Him and will show through our experiences with Him.

His Spirit is our motivation that shifts us, creating from our surrendered control over our lives, new roots from nourishing the seeds that He has planted in us.

This is the difference that should be the importance of mankind- that should be the focus of His followers-the difference that His Love makes in us when we completely surrender to His Will over our own.

The root of our new motivation which is the result of our experience, of our connection with God causes us to have a changed behavior pattern-a new pattern for living through and in His love.
It is Not the outer body differences that mankind has for so long chosen to exploit, deny, oppress, and to use as a negative in order to justify their fear filled, self serving desires and control – all in the work of being safe and secure-here in this world.

This way is the way of feeding the lie that skin color or gender is the important factor that we are to base our fears on.

Let us remember that God never once asked Any of us what and who we wanted to be before He put us in our mother's womb!
That decision is Always left up to Him and Him Alone!

Just as we lock up tight our homes, protecting our families, ourselves and our belongings from mean spirited people – we have to lock up our souls and hearts against every lying human and spiritual thief that tries to steal the Treasures that our Father has blessed us with.

Even when that lying thief is our own flesh and our mind’s battlefield-we have to allow the Spirit of the Lord’s Wisdom to help us to push down our self will-which as you know allows His Will to govern His authority over, in, and through us.

Are you joining with the very old mob of fear lead, frightened, self centered people that some Christians have become part of – or - are you a partaker in the family of Jesus our King, living by trust and faith in Him? Saying that you stand this day and then not the next day, will not help you to grow, be used by Him, nor fulfill His purposes for you here nor there.

There is a truth that we all must grasp and hold on to-protecting in our heart and soul. Too many seek to justify themselves and this will always hinder their work for Him. We must remember that we are fighting the good fight of faith-led by His Spirit of Love.
We are fighting for Christ the King, not for ourselves. All explaining and justifying must be done for Him. In every difficulty we may have with another, we need to put ourselves in their place and pray that their issues will be solved. And this shall bring about a solution for us-to help us see with clarity that which we ought to pray.

The power is given to help us realize the needs of all those we have contact with; and to acquire the Full use of His Power we must absorb sympathy, forgiveness, and understanding from the Life of Jesus. The increase of time spent with Him, learning all about Him- being in a way of knowing Him; is necessary and should be dear to us all that follower Him.

When we rejoice and focus on the new life and the new opportunities that will challenge us all to grow in Spiritual maturity and emotional maturity; let us Praise His name and His purpose for our lives, for He has provided all the Grace, and Love that we will need for each day—One Day at A Time.

Let us remember that God will bless our honest obedient efforts and He Will meet our faith. He will also accept our sharing with Him all the acceptable gifts-and this will allow Him to continue to share with us all that He Is and has.

Romans 8:16
The Spirit Himself [thus] testifies together with our own spirit, [assuring us] that we are children of God. 17And if we are [His] children, then we are [His] heirs also: heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ [sharing His inheritance with Him]; only we must share His suffering if we are to share His glory.
14The sower sows the Word.
2Let me ask you this one question: Did you receive the [Holy] Spirit as the result of obeying the Law and doing its works, or was it by hearing [the message of the Gospel] and believing [it]? [Was it from observing a law of rituals or from a message of faith?]

3Are you so foolish and so senseless and so silly? Having begun [your new life spiritually] with the [Holy] Spirit, are you now reaching perfection [by dependence] on the flesh?

Please, don't let your Fire go out for Him!

HE WILL MEET MY FAITH-HE WILL BLESS MY EFFORTS!


2 Corinthians 5:7 We live by faith, not by sight”
Heb 8:11 “Urged on by Faith, Abraham Went…”

My friends, Encouragement is what we all need Every day in order to chose Patience over anxiety and flesh.

When the strength of one so chosen is added in with the strength of others, the Lord is in the midst of the faithful.

We are completed—something happens to us – we are built up and create a much stronger connection with His Spirit-(He said when 2 or more are joined together)-We have a vital link with those that God has placed in our lives that nothing else can compare to.

The Holy Spirit of the Lord has ordained us to be joined with others that share our visions and love for Him. We have been connected together by the glue of like-minded purpose and faith-our strengths are put together for the success of His plans and purposes in our lives. He teaches us that as visionaries we realize the value of such a relationship with one another.

We encourage each other, build each other up, correct each other, stand by each other-Help each other-as with our effort does His blessing come to create the success that brings Him Glory and Honor through our union with each other and with Him in the center of all we do-each day-All day!

There are many times where we have to ‘go it alone’ as we discipline ourselves to stay the course set forth by our Leader-for His purposes. To do anything not blessed by Him is to take yourself off course and down a path and by a way not ordained for your life. The purpose of the Lord for your life is replaced by your will and flesh to obtain what you want when you want it.

And the Lord places one with another and makes two, three or more; as we are taught that the Lord sent them out by two’s. He places a single into His family and His covenant is our bond that holds us together for His purposes and not our own. As He did with Jonathan and David, Naomi and Ruth, Mary and Elizabeth, etc.. For His specifically planned destiny and divine purpose.


** I ask you to join me in declaring this confession of our faith and trust in our Lord Jesus Christ, that the Purposes and Plans from our Father will be manifested through our lives.
In the name of Jesus, To the Lord I bring my strength, for His divine supply and purposes-I expect Him to Join me with the strength of His others and that we will be multiplied because His strength is also added to us. I join my prayers and intercessions with those His Spirit has connected me with; for His divine appointments, plans, strategies and timings shall direct And cover our steps.
In the name of Jesus’, I declare an end to partnerships and arrangements that do not reflect the Lord’s Purpose, Plans, Strategies, and Love, for my life. I come and ask You Father for Your covenants that are correct for this season, this time in my life and those that Your Spirit has connected me with. I call on the power of the Holy Spirit to sanctify my life right now unto the Lord’s calling and that I Will fulfill His every purpose spoken over my life.
I declare this truth that His Lordship over my life and over each desire and longing of my heart to be pleasing and honorable to Him shall be done. I shall put forth no effort that He has not blessed. In the name of Jesus, I speak this is so! Amen! **


HE WILL BLESS MY EFFORT-HE WILL MEET MY FAITH!

These would be the efforts that His Holy Spirit has placed on my heart to do. None from my own thinking and flesh.

As I continue to eat from the guidance of the Lord’s Spirit, I am in the way of knowing more about where we are And what is Spiritually going on. This love – the depth of Him is good for me—is good for you. Amen!

He feeds my contentment. Amen.

My friends, I am led to share all this with you as Iron Sharpen Iron;

1.
Proverbs 27:17Iron sharpens iron; so a man sharpens the countenance of his friend [to show rage or worthy purpose].Proverbs 27:16-18 (in Context) Proverbs 27 (Whole Chapter)

As I am fed by His Love for us-so do I feed all that come to His table to eat and drink. As you learn- I learn also.
We cannot allow temptation to make us chose anxiety over patience. While in the Spirit I saw race horses and track runners positioned to begin the race ahead of them. Some of them ‘jumped the gun’ and had a false start. At times we may think it is time to make a move—when in fact the truth is we are attempting to move before God’s divine timing. We are trying to make what He promised Come before the timing that He has placed upon it to do so.

We are Still within His Season of our transitioning and I know none of us wants to have too many false starts which will result in disqualification. Too many false starts will disqualify you from His timing—from the race. And this is not a good thing to have happen. By this I mean, you will have to start over in a different time—you will have to go back and re-learn what you have not learned for this Season. Your Spiritual maturity is stunted and rebellious-full of manipulation.

When you feel ‘something’ is impeding your progress—most likely the first thing we will think of is that our enemy is working hard against us-that our enemy is a hindrance to our forward growth and movements. What we need to remember is that satan is not our only enemy…our own flesh and thinking, our will is also our enemy when it opposes what the Father has directed us to do And how to do it all.

For this Season, Who is slowing us down is the Spirit of the Lord. The Work of His Spirit keeps us in the flow of the Lord’s Purpose and timing. We cannot move by our own effort-our effort Must Have His Blessing in order to progress in the direction that He has spoken- Not by our sight and lusty desires.

Now my friends, it is Time to hold back our flesh and continue to allow Him and His patience to have their Divinely Perfect Work in us so that our steps follow His direction.

1.
James 1:4But let endurance and steadfastness and patience have full play and do a thorough work, so that you may be [people] perfectly and fully developed [with no defects], lacking in nothing.James 1:3-5 (in Context) James 1 (Whole Chapter)

Urged by Faith-we Will Trust our Father God to get us through this Season of transitions—and the necessary changes in order to keep our sense of dignity and purpose, in the name of Jesus.

We are covered by His Blood and the Blood Still has the Power!
He needs our efforts—we need His Blessing-it’s a partnership a union that creates the path of success that we need to Do All things Through the strength of Jesus Christ. He has provided His Strength And His Joy, we Are ‘Doing’ through Him that is our Lord, Amen!

Phil 2:13 [Not in your own strength] for it is God Who is all the while [a]effectually at work in you [energizing and creating in you the power and desire], both to will and to work for His good pleasure and satisfaction and [b]delight.

I do love and appreciate each of you as the Lord loves each of us!
It Is Well With My Soul!

SHARE WITH HIM THE ACCEPTABLE GIFTS! *part 1

Luke 6:38 “ Give and It Will Be to you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together And running over Will be put into your bosom. For With the same measure that you use, It Will be measured back to you.”

If you give pride filled and hate filled, judgmental words and action, false witness, selfish and self centered oppressive love; whatever you give in this manner will be given back to you. That is what you will receive back to your bosom. If you give from the Gifts of the Spirit, from the depth of the love, joy, and peace from within your heart; selflessness, light, truth and freedom, support and compassion, etc…; that is what you will receive unto your bosom from God.

Phil 4:6-7 “Do Not fret or have anxiety about anything, but in Every circumstance and In Everything, by prayer and petition (definite requests), With thanksgiving continue to make your wants known to God. And God’s Peace which transcends All understanding Shall garrison and mount guard over your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.”


To REST in His Peace, His Love and to Abide in Him—many do not understand these commands given from His responsibility for us. Rest means to stop worrying, to stop ‘trying to figure out’ what you need to do in the natural, to stop trying to manipulate the situations and their circumstances by your own devices concerning your life.

Rest means to Trust by Faith in Him-Him that is More than Able to do whatever you need concerning your daily life. To Trust by Faith that everything He has planned Will happen on time—fully every time.
Heb 11:8 / Psalm 20:7 / Psalm 22:4-11

He has instructed us to Leave All behind And Follow Him.

This may mean material items that we have given power to over our lives, things that many feel hold their self-worth and value as a human. This also means people and certian jobs that are in His way for your Journey.

This outlook is based on worldly standards and not standards set forth by His Spirit. When His Spirit leads you-speaks to you to let certain things-objects that you own go, to let go of certain people in your life-He may tell you to leave your job for another one-Or, He may want you to leave your job and Work solely for Him. If you can and will obey when He speaks to you and let go of your hold and false strength in material things—giving them or throwing them away-this will be your sign to God that you are dedicated to and dependent on Him.

Too often people hear this request from Jesus to be only about material, natural things; Totally missing the depth of the message given. He also means to Leave Behind our pride, our self-sufficiency, our fears of what others may think, our ways of doing and thinking by fleshy and emotional ways. To leave behind carnal conditional love, our tired and weak cry of “what about me?”

This would be An Acceptable Gift to our Lord. To leave All behind every day and to follow Him every day in His Love.


Just as Abraham, who was urged by Faith ‘went’ even though he knew Not where God was sending him—so are we expected to do the dame, every time, every day. He beckons us to Come into the deep—to go forth into the unknown with Him (not alone), to be fearful about nothing—But by faith to trust in Him as He leads us down the narrow path.

To trust Him by faith is our tribute of Love given to Him; just as a child brings a flower to a parent as a show of love.

A gift of Love that is Acceptable is what Mary, sister of Lazarus gave when she broke open the alabaster jar and anointed Jesus with the valuable Spikenard oil. She knew the worth of the oil did not give her social standing higher than serving and loving her LORD. Give and It Shall be given unto your bosom!

Such a precious Love offering did she selflessly give-An Acceptable Gift that she Shared with Jesus. We can’t give up before we get it right. God is the God of many chances if desired by the heart to get it right!

Let each of us give to Jesus our love and understanding by obeying His request to leave everything behind and follow Him.
As we remove ourselves from worry and concern over our daily living—What shall we do with all this Free time? Delight ourselves in His Love! Live in the manifestation of His Kingdom-Live in the midst of the changes that His love does to one that willingly surrenders to completely be the New Person He says each of us is when we begin to Live in this fleshy body for Him.

I encourage you to stop standing at the edge of the deliverance that you have prayed for and that He has provided to you. Allow faith to urge you to step into the deliverance that is so needed in your life. His Divine Love will change every area of our being one day at a time when we allow Him to do so. As you are urged by Faith to allow His love to turn you into Love, you will be able to claim the big and great Spiritual And natural promises-blessings that He has spoken over your life. His plans for your life will be revealed to your natural eyes.

Ask that He reveal all the knowledge that you possess but do not know that you posses it. (Take a moment to let that sink in).

So Much has been placed into us before we were born in this natural realm but all many people concentrate on is worldly knowledge and not the Spiritual knowledge from Heaven.
Share with Him All Acceptable Gifts! Joy in Him, Claim and receive His Joy, His Peace, and Freedom from daily cares.
Joy In HIM!

We must remember that Jesus is responsible for each of us that the Father has given to Him. He is the same today, yesterday, and for ever more. His thoughts toward us are loving, caring, protective, corrective. We are to call into being everything we need Spiritually and in the natural for our lives.

When you Joy in Him—you are trusting Him –you are sharing with Him all of your life.

See Him in everything—give to Him everything—include Him in your celebrations and in your sorrows. To include Him is to rejoice in Him—sharing All with Him just as a child shares their pains, disappointments, confusion, frustrations, their successes, their newfound knowledge and experiences with their loved ones.

By doing this–including Jesus, we are giving Him the Joy of sharing All with us!

1 John 4:7-9
7 Beloved, let us love one another, for love is (springs) from God; and he who loves [his fellowmen] is begotten (born) of God and is coming [progressively] to know and understand God [to perceive and recognize and get a better and clearer knowledge of Him].

8 He who does not love has not become acquainted with God [does not and never did know Him], for God is love.

9 In this the love of God was made manifest (displayed) where we are concerned: in that God sent His Son, the only begotten or [a]unique [Son], into the world so that we might live through Him.

OVERFLOWING BOUNTY OF TRUTH & LOVE!

**The Lord has given me a long teaching of encouragement to feed you with. Eat what you are able to at this moment-Come back, as there is Always seconds and thirds and fourths available for you to eat and drink of! It will be here as it Will Not Spoil-it has been salted! These are Not little inspirational 'snack snippets' - but are Full Course Meals for the mature, always growing and learning Children of God! Amen. Pull up a chair-there is one with your name on it-Sit - REST- Be Thankful- Pray for others as you eat- Offer Him your sacrifice of Praise - All Is WELL! AMEN!**



"I have told you these things, that My joy and delight may be in you, and that your joy and gladness may be of full measure and complete and overflowing."



John 15:11




my sisters and brothers, my friends it is with Joy that I share my Love for our Father and Son and His Most High Spirit with all that Journey this Way.

If you receive the slightest Joy, Happiness, Love and Encouragement to stay the course following Jesus-that which helps you grow in your relationship with Him, to enlighten you when the moment seems only filled with darkness; then I have been blessed to have been used by Him. ALL Glory and Honor is for God our Father. Amen!

He Is Bounteous-He Is a Giver-He is our Teacher and leader. It was not about what He gained that was His purpose—His life’s Work and Love was being concerned with what God gained.
“Even Christ pleased not Himself.”


He sought the weak, the wandering, the sick, the rejected, the oppressed, the mentally and physically ill and the marginalized By The self appointed elite, the self appointed privileged, the self-appointed self important.



As Jesus continues to seek these same people today—so should we do the same. He invited these people to be in His Family, living by His Family Values-Unconditionally! Not the family values that are conditional that man has created-saying they are God’s –that is not truth-but manipulation!



I am serious about our Father's Work- i don't have time to play 'church' or any flesy games with anyone -And I certainly don’t play with Jesus!



As He has asked us all to be His--My heart and mind belong to Christ Jesus (John 16:24; John 15:7; John 16:23)—He has come into the country and called me from my ‘mans’ job to Work for Him—I am humbly honored to Work for Him—God pays me for Working for His Son Jesus! At every moment the Holy Spirit speaks to me how I ought to-I Pray for you all. Amen. Rom. 8:26

I ask (James 4:2) And I expect Him to provide what I ask in Jesus’ name! And I use Everything that He has given to me for the lives of those that seek Him. (Psalm 37:4)—I make myself happy and joyful in the LORD! Amen!


His overflowing and ever present bounty is always in plain Spiritual sight for all that have faith and trust in Him-that have eyes that can see And desire to see. Realize that, the Supply of the Lord never runs out—there is no need large enough that we can go to Him with that He cannot fill to overflowing levels!




As He is generous And so should we be. When others test and try to prove His goodness-we show it because we are fully generous –living by His example.

What do you have to be generous with you will ask if you are only able to look with your natural eyes at what you have in the natural. Those things that are material may not be enough to help out others in need. And they may not fit the order.

What you have to be generous with is your love of Jesus and all that His Spirit has imparted into you. The Gifts of the Spirit is what you have to be generous with.

When you allow Him to work on your heart, to work on your Spiritual maturity And on your emotional maturity; the results help the Gifts of His Spirit planted in you grow and bear fruit-part of that harvest will be a heart that overflows with gratitude because of what you have received from your relationship with Jesus. Gratitude grows Joy!


Because you are able to give from The Bounteous Supply of our Lord. Part of the Supply that is ours to use is our act of Prayer! Pray for people- Pray to thank God before troubles happen-Pray when in the midst of trouble- Pray when He has gotten you out of trouble- Pray when He has gotten you through trouble!

Prayer should be your First language. Not some religious duty that seems magical or the last resort. It Should always be done first when difficulty arises. First.
PRAYER is our communication with God in the name of Jesus!


It is an act of dedication and an act of communication (John 15:15; John 15:5; Luke 12:32) PRAYER is my confession that I am Dependent on God in the name of Jesus.


It is an amazing privilege that I am able to talk to God. This is also true for you.
(Psalm 84:11!)

Don’t ever give up on God because of how things appear in any given moment! Trust in Him and give Him time to work things out for you! Have a little talk with Jesus He Will hear you and He will answer by and by!

Lord help me deliver Your message as I ought, to those that seek Your Will in Jesus’ name Amen!





My friends that are Sojourners of His Way- I greet you and welcome you on this beautifully made day that we have been given to EnJoy with Praise to the Father in the name of Jesus!
Our LORD spoke His truth to us, He said that He left us His Peace! Thank You Jesus! He Gave us His Peace to live within and share with others. Such Love-so vast that there is More than enough to cover us all-All the time! Amen!

He knew that the only way we can continue to Daily do His Work is if our hearts are at Peace. Divine Peace is a strength unto our feet and hands.

To be able to help souls get to Him we must at all cost keep this Peace. If our hearts lose His Peace or if we step out from it-we become ruffled, irritated and frustrated. To do every Work wrapped in His Peace is for our every thought to be a mighty force for Him. And every act we complete is always one of Power.

I encourage you to continue to rely on His leading—this Way nothing is impossible through Him! This is our Way to expect unlimited Power for our daily Work. Through His Peace that He gave to us= His followers.

Our Lord-our Leader takes us through many roundabout Ways that we would not have chosen on our own. Many times we follow Him through glades, through waste lands, through briars, up the mountains high and down into valley’s slow. As He ever leads those of us that are Determined to obey—carrying our Peace with us—His helping Hand is Always with His Leadership! my Lord thank You!

Isn’t it Glorious to follow where our Leader-our Master goes? Oh Yes it is! Many may be reluctant to step—thinking to themselves, “I’m not trained for this-I don’t know anything about this work-this process.”

Let me remind you my dear sisters and brothers that these many varied Paths we are lead by do not always require that we need any type of special training in the natural. Amos was a dresser of sycamore trees, (not the ones here in America), and God called him from the country to be His Prophet.
Ester was hiding as a Jewish woman when she became the life partner of the Persian King—Ruth was of a tribe that worshiped the moon, and was called to be part of the Family tree of Jesus when she became the life partner of Boaz. Debra was a praying woman of self means-when God called her to be His Prophet and be Judge over the people.

They all trusted in God (not in the things of the world), and by faith they were made members of His family—living by His family values—Serving Him! (Psalm 20:7)

His Spirit equips us with Everything we will need to know as we step out into the varied places and Work He has called us to do in Jesus’ name. Our Faith and Trust is what activates unlearned abilities to successfully accomplish what He tells us to do.

We, (Jesus & us) are seeking His lost sheep. We (Jesus & us=you and me), are bringing His Kingdom into places where IT has not been known about before. We (you and me), are joined with Him on His quest-His undying loving quest to track down His lost souls. His ways chosen for us to Journey will not fret and tire us for the sole purpose to wear us out—this is why we need His Peace—but as we do fret and tire at times it is because we are out Working to save in His name. His Spirit will call to our tired bodies, minds and Spirits—to Come to Him and REST! His sheep know His voice and we obey—we REST!

As we are sent to accomplish mush-we must be much! As we are sent out Doing-we must Be Well IN Doing-We must be the expression consciously and unconsciously of Being! Always in a constant state of Being! yes Lord!

This is not about “thinking too much of yourself”—falling into the group of ‘such-i-much’ people. This way of living will blind you with pride and false self-importance. You will not accomplish work that will be recorded in the book of life nor will this type of work bear Him fruit!
I am speaking about being humble, lowly; fully surrender to His Leading—total obedience is our Way. We are told by our Leader countless times to FEAR NOT! To Fear Not and that ALL IS WELL! For He Is with us—Ever ready to extend His Helping Hand when needed. (yes Lord).

Spend your day in small prayers and praises to Him for All things little and large. Turning to Him in small and large things. We smile from our souls at the One it Loves!

He has taught us, to see the Father as First Cause. (yes Lord). When you begin to All day – Every day See Him as the First Cause of every rain shower, as every ray of warmth, as the reason for every color our eyes are blessed to see in this land, as the First Cause for the rising of the sun and it’s setting—When you See Him as the First Cause for every drop of water, every sweet refreshing breeze- you will see Him in Every Divinely Planned Pleasure that comforts your heart—that supplies all your need and you will be the Same for all that cross your path each and every day.
Living by His example. (yes Lord).

Eph 4:32/Col 4:6

Our desire to be His disciples, which means that we follow Him and we seek answers. His Helping Hand is always ready to be extended out to help us conquer adverse circumstances—as we conquer ourselves first. And He continues to give us the same answers that He gave to the first disciples—“Be ye therefore Perfect, even as your Father which Is In Heaven Is Perfect.”

As we continue, Let me remind you of this also-that we may not always ‘SEE’ the soul He seeks-but He does! This is why we must YEILD to His Spirit, Rejoicing that He seeks- And He sends us and the lost sheep IS found! Amen!

Luke 15:6

Let the Lord use you in situations that your flesh tells you to sit silently—let the Lord use you to Speak up in Truth and stop whatever evil planned mess that is trying to take over the people’s hearts! Which will cause the people to sin against God.

Speak up when His Spirit leads you—as you may be the only one in the room that Works for Him. Jesus has already empowered you to do what you have been called to do! That is the definition of ‘Being Blessed’.

IN THE ABSENCE OF FEAR DO YOU LIVE!
BOUNTEOUS GIVING!

2Tim 4:2/1 Cor 1:18


on feet of Faith & Peace,
ALWAYS SEEKING TO ENCOURAGE!
Resting In His Faithfulness,
One Day At A Time By Faith.
Joshua 1:9
