How To Increase


He who refreshes others will himself be refreshed.
Proverbs 11:25

When I read this scripture, it tells me there is a way to become refreshed and revitalized.
These our the days of anticipation!
What is coming!
Why is this happening?

How to be an overcomer and not just a survivor in your life.
To receive we must give.
To accumulate we must scatter.
To make ourselves happy, we must make others happy.
To become spiritually strong, we must seek spiritual good and growth for others.
Our real refreshment and strength come when we exercise the love and giftings
God has given each of us  for others (orphans, widows, the lonely).
The refreshing of others brings humility.Grace comes when we show grace.
Love comes when we show love.

Therefore, "give, and it will be given to you.
A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over"
Luke 6:38
We had a earthquake in our region the other day and a after shock at midnight last night.
Yet, we must not be shaken as the world is tossed to and fro.

Sober Minded


Gird up the loins of your mind.
With all the reports going on in the whole world, it could fill your mind and heart with fear.
I don't want to stick my head in the sand and be unaware of the troubles.
For when we hear about wars or rumors of war, and when we hear a bad reports,we can pray!
We must have compassion and let our gentleness be known to all men.

It is time to be" sober minded"
To think and meditate on these things:
What is true and noble, think on just and pure motives.
May your heart and mind engage on whatsoever is lovely,
and things of good report.
Meditate on things of virtue and praiseworthy thoughts.
Philippians 4:7-8

Pray Dear Ones!

Blessings, Roxy

Take Action


This is a continuing thought of my last post.
Now these here young warriors, our practicing and doing what they know to do to be good soldiers.
Definitely not from a wax museum.
Alive and ready to implement the plan of strategy.

O beloved, I plead with you not to treat God's promises as something to be displayed in a museum but to use them as everyday source of comfort.  And whenever you  have a time of need, trust the Lord.

Go to the depths of God's promise,
And claim whatsoever you will;
The blessings of God will not fail you'
His word He will surely fulfill.
By Charles H. Spurgeon

How can God say no to something He has promised?

Church or Museum

A house of prayer?
Or a museum?

The answer to both questions is YES. Because many years ago this church was filled with people. And they prayed and the Word says there prayers shall not return void. Answered prayer it is a promise. Many years ago the churches were built with such a distinct way that just beckoned you to come in. There were churches in all the small American towns. They doubled many times for the school house the town hall. My that would cause a lawsuit today.
Like this beautiful old church may it stand for a very long time, as a reminder of to each of us to pray and to never give up. God has blessed this nation and He created this world.
May our prayer life and our family's not look like part of a museum. But be alive and overflowing with hope.
The Lord has said to occupy until I return, keep on keeping on!
Blessings, Roxy

Vessel

Being a vessel !
We are given each day as a gift.
We can yield ourselves to the Lord and allow the Holy Spirit to fill us afresh.
I am learning each day to hear His voice with more clarity.

I am convicted to see if there is any false belief system in my life.

Will what I believe, hold up under a strong North wind? (Song Of Songs 4:16a)

Is my foundation totally built on The solid rock?

JESUS CHRIST

I love that the lover of my soul teaches and corrects me each step of this walk with Him.

We are the Bride of the lamb that was slain.

He is coming one day for His Bride.

This picture I took, it is of a pitcher which is a vessel to be used, to be poured out.

And the apple speaks of His fruit in our lives, we can all nourish someone with His substance He gives us. We must choose to spend time with Him so we have something to give.

You can't give what you don't pocess!

Filled and Over Flowing And Being Prepared...


Living From Glory To Glory Blog



Storms In The Heavens

We must work and prepare while it is yet day.
The Lord has been prompting me to do some things, to prepare for troubling times.
It seems like a wise woman would see that the days ahead could be difficult ones.
It is a season to prepare and put-up and put back!

Be smart and savvy and look for bargain's.
Stock up on the things that will go a long way!
Beans and rice...
Flour and sugar...
Oil and salt and baking powder and baking soda
Noodles and baking mix for pancakes

~All in large quantities~
Tuna and canned foods with long shelf life.

Date all foods and rotate them as needed, but replace promptly.
Fear not, but let us not be caught without.

A cold drink of water given in Jesus name, or a meal served to someone who may be found hungry
 It is our responsibility to take care of the orphans and the widows.
More to come on this subject as the Lord leads me!

Blessings,

Welcome Home

Baking Bread

This was such a fun day we made a ton of bread dough. We first grounded up fresh wheat and got to experience dough up to our elbows. Then we made up some flat bread. It was so good and we had a ball. We really enjoy getting together and doing some sort of project.

We think of bread as a vital substance of life. Yet the word tells us that man cannot live on bread alone but every word that proceed out of the mouth of God.

I want to encourage so many of you ladies out there to nuture your friendships that have been given to you by God. You know they are a gift to you and He expects us to to take time for them and to love them.

I was thinking the other day about a thing we may do and not realize what it should mean. If you have a welcome mat or a welcome sign at your front door entry it might be a good idea to ask yourself does this really apply here?

WELCOME

To feel loved and appreciated. Given a good smile and hug. Ask if they would like something to drink, offer a snack or a meal. Hospitality is a sign of a gracious women.

I want to thank all the women who have offered a real WELCOME to others .

GOD BLESS

Take time to thank God for the frienships He has given you!!

My Mother


My Mother was a very strong woman, her life was not easy. She had five children, and she kept a clean home and there was always a wonderful supper prepared. Her name was Mary Ellen.
She did come to know the Lord later in life, but I think even when she was a young women she knew of God. I want to take this moment to say to the world I loved my Mother and I miss her so much. I know I will see her again when the Lord calls me home.

We as women need to encourage and help one another, we are all sisters and Mothers and aunties, and daughters, wives and Grandmothers.

May we as daughters of Zion take care and nourish and encourage one another to keep our homes and lives and families whole and strong and safe. Home is where the heart is.
