Is Your Heart on Fire for God?

October 3, 2016 by Leave a Comment

images-12

Dear Child,

You praise Me not only through song but you praise Me everyday through your life by your words, your thoughts, your attitudes and your actions.

A heart of gratitude is a praising heart

A heart of humility is a worshipping heart

A heart of holiness is a regenerated heart

A heart that surrenders to My will is a trusting heart.

Thus saith Papa

Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me. Isaiah: 29:13

CHALLENGE: Is your everyday life only lukewarm or is it on fire for Him?

See Chapter Nine in “Developing a Secret History with God” to inspire you as you press into His presence with a heart full of praise.

Touring God’s House Of Gold

September 10, 2016 by Leave a Comment

screen-shot-2016-09-10-at-3-29-45-pm

As we leisurely toured God’s House of Gold, at a local ministry in Nazareth, we took time to digest the hidden truths we uncovered. Everywhere we excavated we dug up nuggets of truth, each added depth and color, as the largest and most exciting picture of redemption in history, gradually unfolded before our very eyes, as each transforming truth jumped to life in our hearts.

A study that did more than feed minds with historical facts, but rather a study that gave us a deeper understanding in the transformation of our temples into houses of gold where God now dwells by His spirit.

Since God devoted only two chapters to all of creation but fifty chapters to the Tabernacle, surely this should tell us the importance God has placed on this colorful tapestry of His plan of redemption. A tapestry woven in gold, silver and brass with threads of blue, scarlet and purple.

“The New Testament is in the Old Testament concealed

and

 The Old Testament in the New Testament is revealed.” St. Augustine

Are You Drying Up And Thirsty?

September 5, 2016 by Leave a Comment

I always try to be aware of windows to my soul in my everyday life. Every time I have driven up to my favorite Chick-Fil-a I have noticed lately the scarcity of petunias blooms on one side of the parking lot while on the other side there is a huge colorful abundance of petunias! What a contrast between the very same petunias that were planted in the spring. Whatever caused that vast difference I would often ponder? Perhaps a lack of water? They were both planted at the same time in the same soil with the same amount of sunshine.

Wow! What a picture of a dry thirsty soul trying to survive spiritually without the watering of the Word. Have you ever felt that you had been planted in the True Vine but when the heat of trials dried up your roots you just wilted with your life bearing sparse beauty for the Kingdom? I know I’ve been there. I write about that experience and my victory in my book “DEVELOPING A SECRET HISTORY WITH GOD”. 

That sparse photo is a picture of my spiritual life a few years ago when deep emotional wounds and serious illnesses almost took me out BUT after publishing my story of victory over those battles, God has taken me in the last few years to London, France, Italy, Russia and India to bloom abundantly again for His Kingdom.

May my story encourage your life to bloom abundantly in the garden of your destiny!

John 7:37 If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.

John 6:63 The words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.

A heart of integrity

September 1, 2016 by Leave a Comment

integrity

Dear Child,

A heart of integrity will lead you to a life of righteousness. Let your ‘nay’ be ‘nay’ and your ‘yea’ be ‘yea’. Do not be doubled minded.

A heart of integrity will lead you to trust yourself and you will have peace within.

A heart of integrity will not act in haste because you know your heart will hold you accountable.

A heart of integrity will have a conscience clear before God and man, and will thus hear My voice clearly.

                                                        Thus saith Papa

Proverbs 11:3 The integrity of the upright shall guide them:

Psalm 15:1- 4 A psalm of David. LORD, who may dwell in your sanctuary? Who may live on your holy hill? He whose walk is blameless and who does what is righteous, who speaks the truth from his heart and has no slander on his tongue, who does his neighbor no wrong and casts no slur on his fellowman, who despises a vile man but honors those who fear the LORD, WHO KEEPS HIS OATH EVEN WHEN IT HURTS.

Whatever the nature of the contract, when the word of a Christian has been given, the promise must be honored. Because God keeps His word we have salvation; He is true to His pledge. The Gibeonites craftily deceived Joshua, and he made peace with them before discovering their plot (Joshua 9:19). Nevertheless, God insisted that the terms of the covenant be honored, and generations later withheld rain because King Saul went back on that undertaking. God will not permit us to carelessly destroy a covenant. He who insisted that Joshua should spare the Gideonites, and later that King David should avenge the wrong done to them, expects us to be true to our word, even if it be to our own disadvantage

Integrity means “a quality or state of being complete or undivided”

When our lips say “yes” in haste, yet our hearts are saying “no” we have become a divided person! To have a heart of integrity we must say what we mean and mean what we say!

Challenge: Always count the cost before making any promise, because God will hold us accountable to keep our word whether it was made wisely or unwisely, whether it will be to our advantage or disadvantage.

Have We Lost the Fear of God?

Screen Shot 2014-08-17 at 9.46.17 PM

Dear Child,

If you truly fear Me it will set you free! not punish you, because that fear will give you the courage to let go, the motivation to walk away from that which holds you in bondage. It is sin that is the slave master, not the fear of my presence and facing me as you come to fellowship with me. 

As you reverently fear me, child, you will walk uprightly and have no reason to lack boldness and confidence to come into my presence.

                                                Thus saith Papa

Surely the fear of God is the motivation to cause us to change our ways, not only for our own good but for the good of our children!

Jer 32:39-40  And I will give them one heart, and one way, that they may fear me for ever, for the good of them, and of their children after them:  And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from them, to do them good; but I will put my fear in their hearts, that they shall not depart from me.

Proverbs 14:27  The fear of the LORD is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death.

2 Corinthians 7:1 Let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

Where we find a lack of the fear of God we also find a lack of holiness.

CHALLENGE: Have we lost a reverent fear and respect for God’s holiness in our lives and churches? Has society lost respect and fear of all earthly authority because the church has lost respect and fear for God’s authority? If the church is God’s light in the world surely we lead the way for the world!
