WE MUST BE HUMBLE

TODAY WHEN I GOT HOME IN THE HALLWAY THERE WAS A PIECE OF PAPER. ON THE PIECE OF PAPER WERE NOTES TAKEN FROM MESSAGES I HEARD AT CHURCH STARTING ON 6/23 I'M GUESSING OF LAST YEAR . THE NOTES WERE FROM AT LEAST FIVE CHURCH SERVICES AND I FELT THE NEED TO SHARE THEM.
6/23 THE MESSAGE TALKED ABOUT WAS PETER WALKING ON WATER IN MATTHEW AND IT SAID LET PEOPLE SEE YOU DOWN SO THEY CAN SEE GOD BRING YOU BACK UP AND HE CAN GET THE GLORY.
6/30 THE MESSAGE WAS ABOUT FEAR AND PRIDE AND IT SAID THAT WHEN TERROR AND FEAR ARE PRESENT THERE IS NO POWER, FEAR IS ROOTED AND ATTACHED TO PRIDE, DO NOT TO BE AFRAID TO SHARE YOUR TESTIMONY, THERE IS POWER IN YOUR TESTIMONY AND SHAME IS A DARK SPIRIT THAT HINDERS
7/3 FORGIVENESS IS LETTING IT GO, IF YOU ARE SAVED FORGIVENESS SHOULD NOT BE AN ISSUE; PRIDE IS KEEPING US FROM GOING IN TO HEAVEN.
7/7 YOU CAN BE A BELIEVER BUT NOT HAVE RECEIVED THE HOLY GHOST YOU CAN'T BE BORN AGAIN WITHOUT THE HOLY GHOST. IF YOU HAVE THE HOLY GHOST YOU WILL DO THE WILL OF GOD, LET THE OLD MAN DIE AND NOT HIDE, YOU CAN'T BE IN THE BATTLE ONLY PART-TIME.
7-31 PRAY FOR THE RETURN OF THER FATHER AND THE RETURN OF THE FAMILY; WOMAN IS A MIRROR FOR MAN (CHECKS AND BALANCE)

WHEN PRIDE GOES GLORY WILL COME

I HAVE BEEN THINKING ABOUT PRIDE LATELY. TONIGHT I CAME ACROSS SOMETHING I HAD WRITTEN ON CHRISTMAS. I HAD WRITTEN WHAT I HEARD GOD SAY AND IT WAS: "I WANT YOU TO LOOK FOR UNUSUAL BLESSINGS AND MIRACLES IN DAYS TO COME; IF PRIDE DIES AND MY CHILDREN TRULY RECOGNIZE THAT IT IS ME AND I AM WORKING THROUGH THEM AND THEY ARE ONLY VESSELS AND THEY GIVE ME THE GLORY...I WILL DO GREAT THINGS AMONG THEM". I HAVE ALWAYS THOUGHT OF PRIDE WHEN I THOUGHT OF THE STORY OF KING UZZIAH; PRIDE WAS HIS DOWNFALL.WE MUST BE HUMBLE.

Isaiah 6:1 KJV
In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up , and his train filled the temple.

KEYS OF THE KINGDOM

I HAD A DREAM THAT MY COUSIN AND I WERE AT A POOL AND WE WERE DOING WHAT SEEMED TO BE DRILLS OF SOME SORT, CLIMBING UP ROPES ETC. AT THE END WHEN IT WAS TIME TO GO I DISCOVERED THAT I HAD LOST MY KEYS. I TOLD HER AND WE BEGAN TO LOOK FOR THEM AND I REMEMBERED WHERE I HAD LEFT THEM (THEY WERE IN A POOL). WHEN I FOUND THEM ONE OF THE KEYS WERE BROKEN (I ACTUALLY HAVE A SET OF KEYS LIKE THAT). I SAID THE KEY IS BROKEN ANYWAY; THEN I REMEMBERED THAT I HAD A SPARE KEY ON THE RING. TODAY I SAW THE SET OF KEYS WITH THE BROKEN KEY. I HAD TAKEN THE SPARE OFF AND LOST IT AND IT WASN'T ON THE RING. I HAD LOOKED EVERYWHERE AND I NEVER FOUND IT BUT TODAY RIGHT AFTER I LOOKED AT THE RING I WENT IN THE NEXT ROOM AND THE KEY WAS RIGHT THERE ON THE FLOOR. I KNEW GOD WAS SPEAKING. IT WAS AS IF HE SAID I AM GIVING YOU THE KEYS TO YOUR FUTURE. DOORS THAT WERE LOCKED WILL NOW BE OPENED AND THE VISION THAT I GAVE YOU IS NOT LOST. IF GOD SAID IT AND PUT IT IN YOUR HEART IT WILL MANIFEST.

Matthew 16:19 KJV
And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

GOD IS REAL AND HIS WORD IS TRUE

My son told me about a dream he had last week and I can't stop thinking about it. In it he said there were glass circles that were connected moving across the sky and then there were three moons one of them was bright and green,one was small but bright like the sun,and one of the moons was spinning and there was also a spinning star. He said people thought the world was going to end but it was like God was just showing people he existed.Today in church my pastor said something about God demonstrating his power. After church today while I was watching the movie Jesus, during the scene that Jesus turned water into wine God impressed upon my spirit that, that is where we are now, where God will show all who will be saved that he is real. My pastor is also preaching about Saducees and Pharasies and I think that it is prophetic because when God does begin to move people will try to discredit the move and come up with scientific explanations to keep people from coming into truth. I pray that Christians everywhere will unite as one to intercede for the cultivating of souls to recieve seeds of truth so that the harvest will be plentiful. I am so hungry and looking forward to revivals, all night prayer watches etc. I believe if we as Christians give God acceptable offerings of our time etc. the result will be the ushering in of a move of God that will change the world. I'm Ready!

Acts 2:17 KJV
And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy , and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams

Zechariah 4:1-9



1 And the angel that talked with me came again , and waked me, as a man that is wakened out of his sleep,2 And said unto me, What seest thou? And I said , I have looked , and behold a candlestick all of gold, with a bowl upon the top of it, and his seven lamps thereon, and seven pipes to the seven lamps, which are upon the top thereof: 3 And two olive trees by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof. 4 So I answered and spake to the angel that talked with me, saying , What are these, my lord?5 Then the angel that talked with me answered and said unto me, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said , No, my lord.6 Then he answered and spake unto me, saying , This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying , Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.7 Who art thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it. 8 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying , 9 The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also finish it; and thou shalt know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto you.

CHOOSE

I AM EXCITED ABOUT THE TIMES WE ARE LIVING IN BUT PART OF ME IS GRIEVED. I FEEL THAT GOD IS GOING TO RESTORE HIS PEOPLE; I FEEL THAT HE IS GOING TO BLESS THE FAITHFUL BUT MORE EXCITING IS THAT I THINK HE IS GOING TO QUICKEN THE UNLIKELY WINNERS; THE ONES WHO HAVE BEEN RUNNING THE CHRISTIAN RACE AT A DISADVANTAGE BUT RUNNING ALL THE SAME! GOD IS GOING TO SET THE CAPTIVE FREE; LIBERATION IS NIGH AND I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE HOW FAST THOSE THAT WERE WEIGHTED DOWN WILL RUN WHEN THEY ARE SET FREE. ON THE FLIP SIDE I FEEL THAT THERE WILL BE A GREAT UNCOVERING. GOD'S TRUTH WILL PREVAIL AND HE WILL BEGIN THE SHOW FORTH HIS LIGHT IN DARK PLACES AND REVEAL AND UNCOVER WHAT WAS HIDDEN AND THOSE WHO THOUGHT THEY HAD GOTTEN AWAY WITH WHAT THEY WERE DOING WILL HAVE TO ANSWER. STAY IN POSITION AND LET THE LORD FIND YOU READY.

Joshua 24:15 KJV
And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve ; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell : but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.

Revelation 22:11 KJV

He that is unjust , let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy , let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.

Living in the Last Days

Today in church I saw a vision of a scroll turning and the words on the scroll were light and coming off of the pages. Later someone gave a word of prophecy that said time is winding up. Christ is soon to return.

Luke: Chapter 10
23. And he turned him unto his disciples, and said privately , Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye see :
24. For I tell you, that many prophets and kings have desired to see those things which ye see , and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear , and have not heard them.

HAVE MERCY LORD

Today I had planned to post about Adam and Eve. I found the scripture in Genesis Chapter 1 that said be fruitful, multiply, replenish the earth and subdue it and have dominion but what kept coming up in my spirit while praying is Have Mercy Lord. "Have Mercy Lord!" "Have Mercy, Jesus!"

BE FRUITFUL, MULTIPLY, REPLENISH

Today I got dressed for church and the car I was driving started cutting off. I had been having problems with it so I decided to turn around while I could. This morning I got the impression to study Adam and Eve with my children this week. I wandered why I studied about Noah first so I looked back over the story of Noah and I found that God had told Noah what he had told Adam..Be Fruitful, Multiply, Replenish. I remembered be fruitful and multiply but I always thought the last part was have dominion. Anyway I decided to study the word replenish.

Replenish
1 a: to fill with persons or animals : stock barchaic: to supply fully : perfect c: to fill with inspiration or power : nourish
2 a: to fill or build up again b: to make good

We have been talking about building up in church and I think that "building up" is critical in this season. The devil knows that we are close to a move of God that will change everything. We are close to a move of God that will equipt God's people to take dominion and to replenish. Because we are so close the devil is pulling out his arsenal and doing all he can to get us off track and out of position. Last Sunday in church God wanted me to compel his people to call in those that had gotten out of position. There are some tares that are suppose to go but there is also wheat that is entangled with the tares. We must restore. When I think of Adam and Eve I think about obedience. It is so important to be obedient. No matter what seems to be going on around us we must focus and do what God has called us to do. We must pray, we must fast, we must build, we must encourage, we must edify, we must restore, we must be fruitful, we must multiply, we must replenish.

There is Power in Righteouness

Since I had been dealing with doubt I decided that my children and I would study faith this week. I pray with my children but God has really been dealing with me about doing more like teaching etc. I am including my younger children too so I am using the story of Noah to teach them on their level. Yesterday we read Genesis chapter 6 and I told them the story of Noah; my little girl said someone had brought a book about Noah to school which made me happy. Today I went to church and had my older two children pray with the younger children and read them Genesis Chapter 7. I read Genesis chapter 7 as well and the fact that Noah's righteousness caused God to save a remnant really impacted me. Other parts that stood out were
Genesis Chapter 7:11In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the window of heaven were opened.
Genesis Chapter7:15 And they went in unto Noah into the ark,two and two of all flesh, wherin is the breath of life.
7:22 All in whose nostris was the breath of life, of all that was in the dry land, died.

A definition of dry is unproductive of the expected results. I am reminded of something we have been talking about in church Luke 13

Luke 13
5.I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent , ye shall all likewise perish .
6.He spake also this parable; A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came and sought fruit thereon , and found none.
7.Then said he unto the dresser of his vineyard, Behold , these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down ; why cumbereth it the ground?
8And he answering said unto him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung it:
9.And if it bear fruit, well: and if not, then after that thou shalt cut it down.

It's like God was saying all the dry and unproductive I will destroy and he destroyed it by the very thing it was lacking...moisture. We really need to get it together in this hour before God comes back and finds that we still have not produced fruit. God is merciful and loving but how long will he hold back his wrath.The enemy has launched an attack that has caused a lot of people to lose focus (I was one of the people) but I will pray that all that can be saved find safety in the ark.

Delayed But Not Denied: Reclaiming Your Identity

In a previous post I posted about how when checking on a matter representatives would ask me if I had been a victim of identity theft. It turns out that I was and because of this something that I was waiting on was delayed. I did not realize what affect it had on me at first. I missed church last Sunday and I had planned not to go this Sunday but God told me that if I didn't I would be in disobedience. I went and the service was good. It was good the last time I went too but still I think a part of me had given up. If God would have left me to myself who knows! What was delayed affected my finances and some things I had been waiting to do I couldn't do and it affected me. I won't pretend that it didn't. I was like, I waited and waited and then something that rarely happens just happened to happen to me. I had the attitude that I'm just gonna do what I want if its going to be like this anyway. Some things I won't do because my grace is gone in those areas but I found myself listening to secular music again among some other things. Today in church I realized doubt had crept in and how. Before church God had been dealing with me about taking steps to achieve some of the things I had asked him for. After church I went for a drive and I stopped somewhere that had gardenia bushes; I smelled the fragrance and it was as if God was reminding me of who I was in him. God then told me to drive downtown. I have always wanted to live downtown but the houses are very expensive so I guess I had kind of put that down. It was as if God was telling me to dream again, hope again. In church my pastor said not to die not realizing that what is in your spirit will heal you...Amen. God has placed hidden treasures within us. We must continue to search until we discover them and how he wants us to use them.

2 Corinthians 4:7
But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.

A Little Leaven...Strange Fire

This morning when I woke up I heard "Fire Hex". I was disturbed. I had been waiting and then I guess searching for God's fire. I got up and asked the Lord, Lord what do you mean? I was led to
Matthew 13:33 Another parable spake he unto them; The kindgom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of mean, till the whole was leavened.
I still needed clarity and my attention focused on a cd that I had ordered, I had picked it up with my bible and some other books I had been reading. I had ordered the cd to try soaking to it. I always knew that there could be danger with this level of music but I thought this artist was okay. I got the cd and I did not like the way the artist looked. I questioned myself and said are you judging her because she is not pretty? but it was something more...she looked animal like. I noticed it and said she kind of looks like a wolf and then I doubted myself again and said "you are being judgemental". This morning while searching the matter God told me that His presence cannot be forced. He reminded me of times that I had worshipped and his presence was so strong that it was almost overwhelming. I long for that again. God was telling me that I could seek him for myself. Even if someone is legitamate they could be in a place in God that you are not ready or even annointed or ordained to go. I do like the idea of being quiet and still before the Lord Jesus but I am going to get back to worshipping him for myself; from my heart with my song.

Leviticus 9
22 .And Aaron lifted up his hand toward the people, and blessed them, and came down from offering of the sin offering, and the burnt offering, and peace offerings.
23 And Moses and Aaron went into the tabernacle of the congregation, and came out , and blessed the people: and the glory of the LORD appeared unto all the people.
24 And there came a fire out from before the LORD, and consumed upon the altar the burnt offering and the fat: which when all the people saw , they shouted , and fell on their faces

Leviticus 10
1 And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, tookeither of them his censer, and putfire therein, and putincense thereon, and offeredstrangefire before the LORD, which he commanded them not.
2 And there went outfire from the LORD, and devoured them, and they diedbefore the LORD.
3 Then Moses said unto Aaron, This is it that the LORD spake , saying , I will be sanctified in them that come nigh me, and before all the people I will be glorified . And Aaron held his peace

Deliverance Is Nigh

Today two books that I ordered on deliverance came in the mail. Both of the books were written by Frank Hammond the author of "Pigs in the Parlor". One book is "Overcoming Rejection" and the other is "Children's Deliverance". I believe there is going to be a wave of deliverance for God's people. We need to be whole in order to carry the fire of the Lord and lead people out of darkness. There has been alot of rain in my area; it is symbolic of what is happening in the spirit realm. This is a time of washing, preparing, and getting our house in order (Spring cleaning). I am so greatful for the Spring that has taken place in the lives of believers...a refreshing, and a renewal. I'm excited about what God is doing.

Isaiah 61:1 KJV
The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted , to proclaim liberty to the captives , and the opening of the prison to them that are bound ;

Know Who You Are In Christ, Keep Your Identity

A while ago God began to reveal some things about a person I knew. I told someone and they suggested I pray for the person. It was a time in my life that I felt exhausted and I said "I don't think I have anything left". The wise counsel that I received was that if I prayed and interceded for the person that God would give me the strength I needed and raise people up to intercede for me. I began praying for the person and as a result God strengthened me. Today God reminded me again of the principle learned...when you build up others and pray for others it strengthens and helps you. Today God gave me the revelation that if I began to pray and intercede for others he would raise up people and intercessors to pray for me and it would change everything. This principle seems simple enough but when life is full of chaos and one blow comes after the other, simple things aren't always so simple. I hope you don't mind but I am going to be transparent today. My older sons and I were talking and I told them what God had told me about interceding for others and we began to talk about intercession and the importance of having the Holy Spirit. As we were talking I told them how when we began interceding for others everything that had been held up would be released. We then began to talk about how things seemed to be unnaturally held up and then I remembered one thing in particular. Every time I would call to check on it the representative would ask me if I had been a victim of identity theft. Something clicked. Identity theft. The devil had launched these attacks to keep me immobile. To keep me from walking in the fullness of who God has called me to be. In a sense I had lost my identity in a way. A sort of spiritual amnesia; I wasn't worshiping and I am a worshiper, I wasn't interceding and God has called me to intercession etc. We must not lose focus in times. We must remain on fire for Christ. We must pray, we must fast, we must study the bible, we must build up our brothers and sisters in Christ, we must worship! It's who we are.It's our identity.

Revelation 3
1. And unto the angel of the church in Sardis write ; These things saith he that hath the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars; I knowthy works, that thou hast a name that thou livest , and artdead.
2.Be watchful , and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die : for I havenot found thy works perfect before God.
3.Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard , and hold fast , and repent . If therefore thou shalt not watch , I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.
4.Thou hast a few names even in Sardis which have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white: for they are worthy.
5He that overcometh , the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.
6.He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
7.And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write ; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth , and no man shutteth ; and shutteth , and no man openeth ;
8.I knowthy works: behold , I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.
9.Behold , I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and ar enot, but do lie ; behold , I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to knowt hat I have loved thee.
10.Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.
11.Behold , I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast , that no man take thy crown.
12.Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.
13.He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
14.And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write ; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;
15.I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou were cold or hot.
16.So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
17.Because thou sayest , I am rich, and increased with goods , and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:
18.I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich ; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed , and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear ; and anoint thine eyes with eye salve, that thou mayest see .
19.As many as I love , I rebukeand chasten : be zealous therefore, and repent .
20.Behold , I stand at the door, and knock : if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come into him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
21.To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame , and am set down with my Father in his throne.
22.He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.

STAND

These are strange and trying times. I have come to what I thought was the edge of my faith more than once but every time God has nudged me to take another step and there I have found hidden bridges. I will not give up. I will not back down. I know in whom I can safetly put my trust. The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob the One and Only, True and Living God....Jesus. I have this confidence...He will come and that right early and if I hold on there is victory in him. Sometimes I feel so alone but that's okay. I'll walk alone if I have to; I will leave behind everything it really doesn't matter. I believe God. I have been entangled in sin and I won't go back. I will wait! Wiping tears if I have to; crawling if I must; however. I will make it to the promise. I will stand.

Matthew 24:15
When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holyplace, (whoso readeth , let him understand :)

Psalm 93

The Lord reigneth,he is clothed with majesty;
the Lord is clothed with strength, wherewith he hath girded himself:
the world also is established, that it cannot be moved
Thy throne is established of old:
thou art from everlasting.
The floods have lifted up, O Lord,
the floods have lifted up their voice;
the floods have lift up their waves
The Lord is mightier than the noise of many waters,
yea, than the mighty waves of the sea.
Thy testimonies are very sure:
holines becometh thine house,O Lord, forever.

LETTING GO OF JUDAS

I have always been particular about who I let in my life. I have recently come to the conclusion that someone in my life is not for me. I love this person but after doing an inventory of our relationship I have to be honest with myself. After considering everything I am noticing all of the distractions; all of the hinderances. When do you let go of Judas? If God allowed the relationship to ultimately bring to pass his will at what point do you let go? Jesus who is an example of what love should be walked with Judas knowing all along that he would betray him. How do you walk with a person knowing they aren't for you? Watching relationships that could have grown die because of seeds of discord they sow. Does Judas know his assignment or is he used unwittingly? I want to be able to love freely without fear but I am at a crossroad; do I hand it over to Jesus or do I say enough and let go?

Luke 22:48
But Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?

PIGS IN THE PARLOR



I finished reading "Pigs in the Parlor" by Frank and Ida Mae Hammond. I was in a bible bookstore about a week ago and I was waiting for the person working in the store to do something and I picked up the book and bought it. I can't begin to describe the value of this book to the Body of Christ. The book is about deliverance. It likens living with demons to having pigs in your home...unacceptable! This is one of the best Christian books I have read if not the best (Bible not included; the Bible is by far the most important and best book for anyone, especially a Christian). I would recommend this book to anyone; this is the type of authority we as Christians should be walking in.

Cry Unto the Lord.

I haven't felt like writing in a while. I had planned to post something this week because God gave me the date 2/20/2012. I don't know if the date is significant to me personally or if it's for everyone. I will be sure to intercede; intercede with me. I had to post today to tell you of God's goodness. On my way to work it was raining hard and I was on a road that was flooded so I figured "hey I had better turn around". When I backed up, I backed up into a ditch. I was inches (and not many inches at all) away from backing up on a power line and the car I was driving was stuck in a ditch. I tried to drive out of the ditch and couldn't and got out of the car to discover the ditch was knee deep and filled with water. I began to call on Jesus! I said "no Lord, help me please". I began to cry and I called 911; along that time a guy pulled up and told me he was going to go get his four wheeler but before he could make it back a guy in a silver truck came and said "so your stuck in a ditch"? I said yeah and he said "you're not crying are you"? He then said "I'm gonna do what I can to try to help you". He opened the back of his truck and pulled out a rope and told me what to do. I drove out of the ditch and to work. I made it to work and unless I tell someone no one but the people that were there would not know what had happened. I am so encouraged in God and in people. There is hope. We only have to ask! Cry out to the Lord; tell him what it is you need. His ears are open to his children. He will answer.

Psalm 4:1 KJV
Hear me when I call , O God of my righteousness: thou hast enlarged me when I was in distress; have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.

RESTORATION OF WORSHIP

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Psalm 46
1. To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. A Song for Alamoth. God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble.
2. Therefore we will not fear, Even though the earth be removed, And though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
3. Though its waters roar and be troubled, Though the mountains shake with its swelling. Selah
4. There is a river whose streams shall make glad the city of God, The holy place of the tabernacle of the Most High.
5. God is in the midst of her, she shall not be moved; God shall help her, just at the break of dawn.
6. The nations raged, the kingdoms were moved; He uttered His voice, the earth melted.
7. The Lord of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah
8. Come, behold the works of the Lord, Who has made desolations in the earth.
9.He makes wars cease to the end of the earth; He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two; He burns the chariot in the fire.
10. Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!
11. The Lord of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah
