O Lord, Your Love…

Our enemy, Satan, is often portrayed as a “snake.” The enemy is on the move to cut-off the life flow of the Church! Now our bones are not a bad thing. But, when they are not in the correct position in the body…they can cause trouble.

I believe that the enemy is trying to get us out of “alignment” with the will of God. He is trying to get us to use the “good things” of God in the wrong way!

Discernment is good…but if it is used to humiliate and judge those that need our prayers, it can cause much damage. Leadership is good…but if it is used to push forth our own agenda…it can cause much damage. Prophecy is good…but if it is used to try and control others…it can cause much damage. The anointing of God is good…but if it is used to draw people to us for our own glory…it can cause much damage.

Brothers and Sisters! We must guard our hearts and use the gifts and empowerment of the Holy Spirit for the furtherance of the Kingdom. Everything we do and say should point to Jesus!!

The Lord is pouring out His abundance upon His Church in this new season. He is calling forth His Bride to walk strongly into the future that He has destined for us. The enemy will try to kill, steal, and destroy the Church by getting us to use the blessings of God in the wrong way!

Be on guard!! Everything we do and say should first be filtered through our love for Almighty God…and then filtered through our love for others. It is LOVE that will bring all into correct alignment and position the parts of the body correctly.

LORD! May Your Love flow through us like a mighty river! It is Your Love that will sweep away those things that would cause harm to Your body. It is Your Love that will draw all people to You. It is Your Love that will guard our hearts in Christ Jesus.

O Lord! Your Love is a mighty weapon against the enemy!! It is Your Love for us that enables us to not be ruled by sin anymore. Your Love saved us and brought us back into the right “position” in our relationship with You. And it is Your Love that will break the power of the enemy in the coming days! ~Tina K. Roach

Is Your “Cart” Too Small?

I realized today as I was grocery shopping that I needed a bigger cart! I was planning on just running in and getting a few things, but ended up shopping my whole list (and more)!

As I look at this overflowing cart, I hear the Lord saying, “Do you have enough room in your life to receive all that I desire to give you? Is your cart too small? Do you expect for Me just to give you the bare necessities or do you expect to receive abundantly from Me? Are you ready to receive more than you can ask or think of?”

YES, LORD! I want to make room in my life for all that You desire to give me. Help me to let go of those things that take up space and are not of You. Forgive me when I expect too little – not trusting You for the greater things in my life.

YOU are my abundance, LORD! My life is full when You have first place!

My “cart” is ready to be filled!! For YOUR glory, LORD! And when it is full, may I use it all for Your kingdom…and then be ready to be filled again.

May my life be enlarged to receive ALL that You desire to pour into it. And may I in turn pour it out to others. In Jesus’ Name, AMEN!!

I AM WHO I AM!

I AM WHO I AM!

I GIVE AND I TAKE AWAY.

I AM READY TO GIVE OUT OF MY ABUNDANCE UNTO MY BRIDE.

I AM READY TO TAKE AWAY THOSE STUMBLING BLOCKS THAT CONTINUE TO TRIP YOU UP AND CAUSE YOU TO MOVE ERRATICALLY ALONG THE PATH THAT I HAVE ORDAINED FOR YOU.

THE WALLS OF YOUR SELF-MADE PRISON ARE COMING DOWN.

FREEDOM IS AT HAND!
