CHURCH!!
The last two Sundays I was out of town. I can’t believe how excited I am to be going to Church tomorrow! I love being in God’s House with God’s people! I love to worship the King of kings and Lord of lords with my Brothers & Sisters!
I am expectant and ready to hear God speak through His chosen vessel – my pastor.
On the way to Church I will be worshipping and praying in my prayer closet – my car – with eyes open and voice proclaiming!
I love You, Lord!!
HE’S CALLING!
The Lord is so far above any thing this world has to offer. He is so far above every thought, every emotion, every circumstance that we can experience. And yet, this awesome God wants us to draw nearer to Him than we ever have before! He wants our thoughts, emotions, and circumstances to come under His Lordship! He wants His Beloved to be totally His! He is calling His Bride!! Can you hear Him?
I AM CALLING YOU!
I hear the Lord saying:
“My Spirit within you makes you MORE than a conqueror–so don’t settle for just getting by.
My Spirit within you equips you to do GREATER works than I did while walking this earth–so don’t underestimate your value in the kingdom.
Stop trusting your ability and start trusting MINE!
I AM calling you…”
SPEAK LIFE!
Are we talking too much about all the wrong things going on in our lives or in the lives of others?
There comes a time when just talking about and lamenting our current circumstances needs to end. It’s time to start DECLARING and DECREEING God’s will in our circumstances and in the circumstances that others are facing!
The Lord is calling us to-
SPEAK LIFE! SPEAK LIFE! SPEAK LIFE!
And watch the circumstances turnaround! Watch the dead things come to life!!
WATCH AND SEE!!
OPEN YOUR MOUTH AND SPEAK!!
“The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life…”. Proverbs 10:11 NIV
“For it is not you who will be speaking—it will be the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.” Matthew 10:20 NLT
Barometer or Thermostat?
[sigh]. Why do we have to lose electricity every time there is a rain storm or there is one close by. (It’s not even raining here!). 😟
And I feel the Lord giving me a spiritual application:
We can be affected by what is going on around us – even if it’s not happening to us directly! The spiritual atmosphere can cause spiritual consequences. So, the solution?
CHANGE THE ATMOSPHERE!
May we be thermostats and not simply barometers. May we not only discern what is going on spiritually – but may we change the spiritual atmosphere and temperature!
Yes, Lord!!!
YOUR VESSEL, LORD!
Lord, when I speak,
may I speak life and not death.
Lord, when I pray,
may my prayers be dripping with Your Love expressed.
Lord, may my walk be in Your authority –
claiming territory wherever my feet touch.
Lord, may my hands be an extension of Your hands –
healing, delivering, and blessing Your people.
Lord, may I truly be Your vessel!
Fill me up…and pour me out!
Lord, for Your glory and for Your kingdom!
Amen!
Are You WILLING?
Don’t think that the Lord can’t use you until you have it “all together!” He knows every fault…He knows every weakness…and He still wants to use us!! He doesn’t choose to use us for His Glory because of who WE are — but He chooses to use us because of who HE is!! Christ in us, the hope of glory, wants to flow through you this day. All we have to be is WILLING!!
Reflection of Glory!
