GRADUATION!

As I was standing in the choir on Sunday worshipping with my Brothers & Sisters in Christ, I noticed something round and red lying on the floor right in front of me. At the end of the church service, I bent down to pick it up and saw that it was a “Graduation” token that had been dropped during the Graduation ceremony that had been held for our preschool students.

I immediately felt the Lord place a spiritual meaning upon the word “Graduation!” I hear the Lord saying that many are going through a time of graduation to the deeper things of God. Many have walked the path of learning and training in the ways of God and are ready to “level up.” Beloved of God, some of the training and molding and shaping has been difficult…but God has used it all for our good…to bring us to a place of being more like Him.

It’s time to lay aside all those things that are holding you back from being all that God has called you to be. And yes…some of those things are good…but God wants you to make room for His best. Don’t settle for less!!

Are you ready to don the robe/mantle that the Lord has been holding for you for such a time as this? Are you ready to take that walk across the stage of life and accept the call of God upon you?

SHINE ON!!

Good morning! Let your “light” shine today (and everyday)!

But, notice that we don’t let ourselves do good works so that we can be noticed and acclaimed…but we do good works so that our Father in heaven will get the glory. It is in and through Him that we are able to do exceedingly well all of the good works that He desires for us to do.

AND He prepared the good works that we are to do before we even do them! So, naturally He should get the glory and recognition.

For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them. Ephesians 2:10

Shine on, Brothers & Sisters…for the glory of God!! 💥

BE LIFTED UP!

The title of the message that my pastor gave on this special day, Father’s Day, was entitled “Walk a Little Slower Daddy” taken from a poem that he read aloud before giving his message.

Many of us are blessed to still be able to talk to our fathers and some miss those special times of sharing because our fathers have passed on to be with the best Father in the universe! Can you imagine what awesome times of talking and sharing they are engaged in!

Well! We don’t have to wait until we get to heaven to enjoy talking to Father God or to enjoy Him talking to us! He is speaking if we will just take the time to listen.

About halfway in the sermon, as my pastor said the words, “Walk a little slower daddy,” the Lord gave me a vision. 

In the vision, I saw us trying to catch-up with the Father as we ran after Him down a path. But, then I saw Him stop, turn around, and lift us up onto His shoulders! God wants us to see the world from His perspective. He wants us to rest in Him – knowing HE is our strength and our support.

Instead of us having the Lord move at our pace – He enables us to move at His pace! Hallelujah!!

Beloved of God, get ready to be lifted up to a NEW LEVEL!  A new level of faith; a new level of ministry; a new level of peace; a new level of love!!

*As I finished sharing my vision in church, we immediately began singing, “Love Lifted Me!” This song was scheduled before the service began. God’s timing is perfect!

Oh, precious ones! LOOK UP! Look past all of the worldly circumstances and look into Abba’s (Daddy’s) face. Can you see the love that He has for you? Can you see His arms outstretched as He bends down and lovingly lifts you up? Reach out…and BE LIFTED UP!!
