It Costs your Life!

In the grand scheme of things there are only a few who will make the decision to receive Jesus as Lord of their life, and then faithfully follow Him throughout the course of their lifetime. Given the reality of our human drives and desires, it takes guts to lay down your life. This is because we instinctively know what total commitment to God costs. Can you see why God is pleased with those who decide to take that leap of faith, and at the same time saddened and indignant with those who try to hedge their bets?
     The Bible is very clear that only those who turn from their sinful ways and invite Christ to be Lord of their lives will ever be allowed to share in all He has prepared for us. In His mercy God helps us to receive Him as Lord. It’s His gift to us, made possible only by His boundless grace.

I Am CallingM

I am raising up a generation that not only knows Me, but who are bold and ready to take on the lies this culture has promoted. I am calling young, old and all those who have My Spirit, to be My bride, My army and My church. This people will not back down in the face of adversity but will stand for truth and life. Choose now who you will serve. Will you serve this culture or will you stand for truth? 

Opening Doors

My child, I am opening doors that no one will shut and shutting doors that no one can open. My Holy Spirit is flowing through those open doors and will bring about what I have purposed for you. The enemy has no influence over that area anymore as I have shut that door. Walk in the freedom I have provided. This is a new day. Isaiah 22:22

My Word Shall Not Pass Away

My child, be careful of  wolves in sheep’s clothing. Just because someone says they believe in Me doesn’t mean they know Me. There are those who are trying to lead My people astray and they will have to stand before Me in the day of judgement. Don’t depend on others for your faith. I am calling you into intimacy with Me. I left My Word for you. Read it and believe it. It is still true and it is not going away. Heaven and earth shall pass away, but My Words shall not pass away. My Word will lead you to intimacy with Me. Matthew 24:35

God’s Infinite Love

For those seeking God—weak as we are in our humanity—He is immeasurably patient. The love of God is far deeper than anything we can possibly imagine. Yet there remains an eternal purpose to that love. With God there is a line drawn in the sand, so to speak. You’ll find just where that line is when you are truly honest with Him.
     He knows what is going on in your heart, even when you don’t understand it yourself, and will uncover your underlying motives if you are willing to truly seek Him. Through His agonizing death on the cross, Jesus paid the price of forgiveness for each and every one of us. And He is willing to receive us just as we are. It just takes is a first step toward Him. If that step is taken in the sincerity of your heart, Jesus will always be there to meet you.

Intimacy

Intimacy ~ This word scares off most people because they have been hurt. They have put up walls to guard their hearts from ever being hurt again. The enemy knows that when you experience intimacy with Me the walls will crumble. You will know true love, true fulfillment and finally experience the pure joy of intimacy that you were created to have with Me. Don’t be afraid of intimacy with Me. I created your heart and I won’t break it.

God spoke through a stink bug

God spoke to me through a stink bug this morning…I saw a stink but down in the garage a couple of days ago, but didn’t do anything about it. Well this morning I saw him again on his back with his legs wiggling struggling to turn over. I took a pencil and helped him back on this feet. Immediately his butt went up in the air! Then the oddest thing happened. He fell back over onto his back! I felt God saying to me that even though He tries to help people in their time of need, their response is ‘defensive’ and then they go back to their prior situation even though it’s killing them. Weather it’s out of being in their comfort zone, not wanting to be told what to do, or a defense mechanism, we’re not too far off from being a stink bug. See where God is trying to help you and embrace it, don’t fight it! Your life will smell a lot better when you are obedient to Him!
