The Miracle of You!

69454019222936748_J5iOGgPW_c

Truly appreciate the miracle of who you are. The fact that you are alive, you have eyes to see, ears to hear, hands to touch, feet to walk, imagination that you can dream! Focus on being thankful for all you do have. You have water to quench your thirst, the sun that warms you and the air you breathe. As you practice being thankful, expand the list of things that you are thankful for: e.g. family, friends, clothes, food, etc.

“Bless the Lord oh my soul, and forget not all his benefits” (Psalm 103:2) 

And you will find GOOD in the day and the week ahead.

Basking in The Presence of His Peace

Dear Child,

Peace, peace, my peace I give you even in the storms, sense my presence through my peace. Be still and know that I am God. In the stillness of the moment basking in my presence that you might be refreshed and encouraged. Allow my presence, peace and encouragement to sweep over you!

Don’t faint weary pilgrim, allow me to be your God, the glory and lifter of your head. Don’t be afraid of stillness, in that stillness you are in my presence and tasting a little of eternity for you are stopping time for a moment.

                                        Thus saith Papa

Psa. 46:10 Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.

During this time of uncertainty and unrest in our world we must not allow the enemy to rob us of our peace of mind. For he comes to steal and destroy and rob us of our freedom and the Word tells us “If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.” John 8:36

Serenity is not necessarily freedom from the storm, but peace amid the storm.

John 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation:but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

It is said that the eye of the storm is always the safest place to be. Storms may arise within us and around us but in the center lies a calm. We find that center by pressing into His presence wherein lies that peace that passes understanding.

Isaiah 43:2 When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee;and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee:when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned;neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.

CHALLENGE: In these uncertain times we can no longer afford NOT to  invest more time than ever before in stillness before God basking in His presence and peace.

May my book DEVELOPING A SECRET HISTORY WITH GOD encourage and inspire you to press into His presence.  Available also on Ebook and Kindle from Amazon/Barnes/or a bookstore near you

Praying At The Wailing Wall

This time last year I had the privilege of interceding for our nation on this monumental eve of the election, crying for God’s mercy on the future and revival in our land. I also placed several requests on paper to place in the cracks standing in the gap for needs of several friends, including Fran and Barbara who I promised to pray for at the Wall.

Who is to Blame? 

Screen Shot 2014-11-09 at 12.32.27 AM

Yes, we are all in the blame game ever since the Garden of Eden.

And the snake is still the great accuser of the brethren. But praise God we have an advocate with the Father, our Great High Priest who ever lives to make intercession for us because He took our place and paid the price for our guilt. He became our scapegoat, we no longer need to play the blame game looking for a scapegoat for we already have one.

And so you see the snake still doesn’t have a leg to stand on!

Revelation 12:10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ:for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.

A Car Without Gas !

Watchman Nee believes that “willpower is like a car without gas. It has to be pushed or towed. Left to itself it grinds to a halt. To trust to the human willpower for spiritual ends is therefore to encounter defeat. Spiritual power does not come from the human will, but from new life in Christ. This life provides another, deeper power beyond our volition, and by that power we find ourselves gloriously carried along in the Lord’s victory!” Page 83 “Developing a Secret History with God”
