Resting

Here I sit after many days of going and going. Week-ends of conference's and such goooood
things. Yet, I could feel the tired weariness of my body. It feels so good to just stop and say enough. I will stop and wait upon the Lord and He will renew my strength. My job is to wait.
Waiting can be tough if you have never trained yourself to "wait"

Business seems to be the tactic of the enemy in this generation. I have asked many different people (how are you doing?) And these are there response, I am just ssssssssssssssssssssssssssoooooooooooooooo Busy.
Come on let's get a new line. Or better yet we could just simplify our lives and schedules.


We must ask ourselves, are we doing what we want to be doing? And are these things bringing glory to God in our lives and marriages? We must learn to discern what is nessesary and what is just business. We will one day give account of our days and time He has given us.

I just want to encourage all my sisters! Stop and listen to the still small voice, rest in His rest.
Take stock of your to do list. what can you eliminate or cut back on. Make better choices and your family and your relationships will prosper. He is our strength, but He even went away and rested alone.

Kingdom Keys

Now how many times have you lost or missed placed your keys? Or better yet, how many times have you lost your keys, and then asked the Lord, please show me where I left my keys.
And then you look in the same place that you looked before and there they are!

Our Father has given us the Kingdom keys! So we hold a powerful tool for unlocking truths and locking out demonic influence. For these keys are called KINGDOM OF HEAVEN KEYS.

Keys are a sign of authority, and they hold the ability to open up heaven and all it's resources.
Matthew 16:19 and I will give you the keys!! You got them so use them, God is just waiting to have you use them in His name and the authority He has given you.

Learn to bind and loosen, take back what the enemy has stolen. Stop the enemy from stealing. And learn to release the blessings and favor of the Lord in your life.

Hearing God's voice

Well let's see where do I begin. I bet your all wondering now where did she go? Surprise!!

I want to start with the fact God is not finished with me yet! It has been a month of getting things in order and WORK. Painting our home outside, it looks so nice.
We chose Pony Tail as the color and a real nice hunter green for the trim. With all our red accent pieces of furniture it looks real country and cozy. The guys have made one trip down to the river bottom to cut fire wood. I started teaching a womens Bible study on Tuesday. We have a womens conference this week-end.

I have spent much time just praying and asking of the Lord and waiting on Him. Here our some special word spoken to me, but I know He wouldn't mind if I shared them with my sisters in Christ. I am yours, you are mine
My beautiful bride of Christ
Flow as you feel my robe of righteousness
Laughter makes you lovely
Let My gems adorn you
I asked the Lord the other day Lord what time is it? I continued my reading and just being in His presence, I asked again Lord what time is it? Pray and rest in the quiet.
Once again I ask the Lord what time is it? He said (Be Ready)

Dress yourself with what He provides, His Glory looks rather lovely on His Bride. My life is not just what I see and do but rather what I hear my Father speaking. It is not just where I go, but rather where the Holy Spirit leads me. I have sensed a flow and its becoming easier to just step into it. But also the battle has intensified!
Gird up girls and prepare yourselves, for He has trained us for such a time as this. We will be overcomers, but we must be steadfast and resist the enemy!

I believe it is now time to learn to hear God's voice and flow with His thoughts. He has said my sheep hear My voice.

A Treasure Hunt

The sun came up this morning, and I had my tea and let mt little dog Max out and realized I had no little grandchildren banging on my back door. As my grandsons live right next door. I remember the mornings of no action around here before 10:00. Times have changed I now have the privledge of helping to train my 3 grandsons. Clayton, Noah and Marshall. Also I now have the task of learning to Blog and realize computers are alive and they have a personality of their very own. I had the notion to comment on someones blog and to my surprise I sent it to myself. Now what the heck!!

Now to the real issue at hand. I love treasure's !!

Do you love a good find? sometimes it is at a garage sale or a thrift shop. But my most precious finds have been in the quiet mornings in my special place. I love the Word Of God.

A treasure hunt in the Word: Open the Bible, do it with purpose and great expectation. Become a student of the word. Become consumed by God and His word. Expect Him to speak to you. It's a treasure hunt and you will always find a jewel. Something worth more then silver or gold. Now when you find this treasure for the day, ponder it in your heart. Meditate upon it, think about it through your day. This is where the Word becomes alive and active as a two edged sword.

The Battle Cry

We must redeem the time for the days are evil. Oh Lord hear our battle cry, for you have won the battle for us. But we must maintain our land ,the borders He has placed us in. A sweet and pleasant place (OUR HOMES). Scripture tells us how to redeem the time. Be careful then how you live- not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity!! Ephesians5:15-16
What does the battle cry sound like? It is the sound of your own voice saying what God's word says about you and who you are in the battle. A royal daughter of the most high King.

Time ,it can slip away and at the days end you may ask where did it go? I say no more for my days are numbered and in His hand. I have made a decision to take back what the enemy has stolen. "My time" First of all give the Lord the tithe of your day and He will expand the rest of it. Be wise in what choices you make on how to spend your hours, and the moments even the seconds.
The Lord has shown me to live in the moments the time I am in NOW. Don't stress over tomorrow or what I want to do next. Rather take pleasure in each moment take captive of your senses see what the Lord has given you. We miss so much by not seeing with our spiritual eyes, there is also so much beauty that our natural eyes can even behold, if we will only take the moments we are given. Tell the little ones around you how much you love them and then really watch in awesome wonder what the Lord has done. Then take stock of all the gifts of people God has place in your lives.
Your TIME will multiply when YOU become content!! With Godly contentment is great gain!

My Kitchen

It all starts here every morning, My daily life in my sweet and cozy kitchen. Put on the tea pot
and while it gets steaming hot, I pick out the mug that best suits my mood this morning. Tall and thin, fat and solid, or maybe flowers. My favorites, one with my grandkids pictures on it, or one with scripture. And all the one's given as gifts from friends and also a few bought for oneself that just seemed like it would hold a pleasent cup of tea.
My kitchen is painted in a lovely blue color with hand made curtains of blue and white flowers. A kitchen table placed in the corner with two large windows to see all the country side.
Think of how many prayers have been prayed at this table? Heads bowed hands folded. Our kitchens truly are a prayer closet of sorts. Maybe even a sactuary where as we go about cooking and peparing foods, thanking our heavenly Father for His provisions. Or praying for our loved ones needs or concerns they may have. We must keep this place, the heart of our homes, clean of fustration, anger and bitterness. We are called to be the keepers of our homes. Prepare your heart first thing everyday that through that time with Jesus. He will give you the desire to keep the home fires burning. Your loved ones need food and nourishment and encouragment. Without these things we shall all grow weak and frail.
This is not a chore put rather a gift and assignment that the Lord has given us as His daughters and wives and mothers.
Pray for stregth and direction, be creative, make a sweet and comfortable kitchen, that all may come in. Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by doing so some have unwittingly entertained angels. Hebrews13:2

Keep Watch

"Some things cannot be done in a day"

"Some glorious morn-but when? Ah,who shall say?

The steepest mountain shall become a plain,

And the parched land be satisfied with rain.

The gate of brass all broken; iron bars,

Transfigured, form a ladder to the stars.

Rough places plain, and crooked ways all straight,

For him who with a patient heart can wait.

These things shall be on God's appointed day:

It may be tomorrow-yet it may."

I can see with my natural eyes, but my spiritual eyes see way more clearly. The days and months don't stop. His time is not ours, but he told us we would be able to recognize the times. He told us to occupy till he comes. Keep watch for we are seeing the greatest and glorious days yet to come. I cry out Come Lord Jesus Come!
