Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo , I am with you alway , even unto the end of the world. Amen.

           

 

Psalm 133:1

Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!

ASK

I was looking through one of my notebooks today and an entry from 2011 stood out; It was as if I was hearing it again for the first time. "Do you notice that when you are in my will or presence you don't ask for trivial things; this is the "You have not because you ask not"; at these times if you ask for what is in your spirit you will receive."

JESUS IS LORD

I STOPPED PARTICIPATING IN HALLOWEEN SOME YEARS AGO. MY TWO OLDER SON'S WERE VERY LITTLE.  I WASN'T IN CHURCH BUT SOMETHING ABOUT A HOLIDAY BEING WICKED ENOUGH THAT I HAD TO CHECK CANDY TO MAKE SURE SOMEONE DIDN'T PUT SOMETHING IN MY CHILD'S CANDY THAT COULD HURT THEM OR TAKE THEIR LIVES DIDN'T SIT RIGHT WITH ME AND I DECIDED THAT I DIDN'T WANT ANY PART OF IT. THIS YEAR THE SPIRITUAL ACTIVITY AROUND THIS SEASON WAS VERY STRONG. I HAVE FELT WEIGHED DOWN ALL WEEK AND THERE HAS BEEN SO MUCH GOING ON IN THE AREA I LIVE IN BUT ONE THING REMAINS CERTAIN JESUS IS LORD AND GOD IS IN FULL CONTROL!

Thank God for Seeing Another Year

Friday was my birthday. I had lunch with my mom and spent time with my cousin. It was a very simple day but it was a very good day. Earlier today I went to dinner with some co-workers. I knew that they would want to go somewhere afterwards and  I was tempted to go but then I decided not to. I turned thirty-six and there was something very different about my birthday this year. With all of the chaos I found myself being grateful just to be here! I thank God for his faithfulness; I thank him for keeping me. I thank God that this time next year won't be anything like it is this year. I thank God for my family and friends. I thank God that despite every attack he allowed me to survive. I thank God for revelation and freedom. I feel as if I have awakened. I feel that I was merely sleepwalking. I am seeing things differently now. I thank God that he knows the beginning and the end. I thank him for his love. I thank him for his creative power. I thank him for life. I thank him for choosing me, believing in me, and calling me. I thank him that he allows me to hear his voice; that he tells me his mysteries; that he calls me unto himself and restores. Thank you Lord; I love you.

It's been a long time coming...but I know, change is gonna come!

Psalm 105:15 KJV

Saying, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm .

 

TUG OF WAR

IN THE FIRST PART OF SEPTEMBER THIS YEAR I WENT TO A FAMILY REUNION IN JACKSONVILLE FL. WE HAD A REALLY GREAT TIME. ONE OF THE ACTIVITIES WAS A GAME OF TUG OF WAR. MY AUNT ASKED ME TO PLAY AND AT FIRST I DIDN'T WANT TO BUT THEN I CHANGED MY MIND AND MY SON'S AND I WENT TO JOIN IN. MY TEAM WON (YEA!), BUT THERE WERE A FEW MOMENTS WHERE WE WERE BEING PULLED TO THE OTHER SIDE AND IT LOOKED AS IF WE WOULD LOOSE. LAST NIGHT I HAD A DREAM THAT MY COUSIN AND I WERE DRIVING ALONG A DANGEROUS ROAD. I WOKE UP AND I KNEW THAT THE DREAM HAD BEEN A WARNING. I HAVE BEEN DOING SOME THINGS THAT I SHOULDN'T LATELY. AFTER WAKING I THOUGHT ABOUT THE DREAM AND GOD SPOKE "YOU HAVE TO STOP TORRY" TO MY SPIRIT. THERE WAS A HURRICANE WARNING IN MY AREA AND YOU COULD LITERALLY FEEL THE SPIRITUAL TENSION BETWEEN TWO FORCES...GOOD AND EVIL. I WILL DEFINATELY BE SEEKING GOD HARD THESE UPCOMING DAYS FOR STRENGTH, RENEWAL, AND REFILLING. I WANT TO BE ON THE RIGHT TEAM...GOD ALWAYS WINS.
ROMANS 7
14 For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin. 15 For that which I do I allow not: for what I would , that do I not; but what I hate , that do I . 16 If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good. 17 Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. 18 For I know that in me (that is , in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not. 19 For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do . 20 Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. 21 I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me. 22 For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: 23 But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. 24 O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death? 25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.
