Occupy Till I Return...

Preoccupied

OR

Occupy till I Return

So much is going on in the world, yet we cannot be taken off course.

We are called to run our race.

It is a race of endurance.

God is the same He never changes.

Riots in the streets, people crying out for justice.

Will this get worse?

I know, let's all just pretend it's not happening!

Open your eyes people.

The change is coming!

Perilous Days

You hear people all the time saying how busy they are

 I don't have much time.

Busy Busy Busy

"What Be Still"

So many books to read.

Did you see that new movie?

Are you busy every day of the week?

Maybe we are just a wee-bit preoccupied!

Ask yourselves,

Do we often become preoccupied with the circumstances?

Being occupied till He returns is His idea.

What does  being occupied look like?

Being about My Father's business!!

Blessings,

Roxy



Pumpkin or the Jack- o'- lantern?

Harvest

What will be harvested from our days here on this earth?

Even a pumpkin can produce more of his kind (if nonGMO)

Pulp that produces luscious bread or muffins.

Seeds to enjoy and snack on.

Fruitful life!

OK mind my own business (Not)

Why would anyone take a wonderful beautiful pumpkin,

and carve it into a face or design.

What lies behind this ritual every October 31st?

Google it my dear Watson!

I know I will hide my identity.

I will dress-up and Who will not recognize me?

Evil and scary is the new cool

BOO!

The spirit behind this is not just fun, but rather fear.

Also, I believe it gives way to more of an interest in occult practices.

Want candy?

Kids just wanna have fun?

Everyone does it!

I have prayed about putting this post up and I felt a huge opposition!

The Word Of God says to stay away  from even the appearance of evil.

I will trick you if you don't treat me.

Harvest should be the time of the pondering of the fruits of the spirit.

Not witches and devils and bats and cats and ghost.

Come on people!

We are called to be separate from the world, not join in to all their occult interest.

Harry Potter

Movies of just plain evil and demonic.

Wake up America this stuff is real not just make believe.

OK I feel better!

 God loves us and what we do and what we participate in will effect you and your children.

Now if you have God's blessing in this  (please disregard).

jack-o'-lantern= The carved pumpkin may have originated with the witches' use of a skull with a candle in it to light the way to coven meetings.

(probably a good witch)

Look Up

Look Up For Your Redemption Draweth Nigh

Luke 21:28
 

The sky has just been amazing with all the open portals, like at any moment the Lord would just appear.

And one day He will.

What if an Angel came to you and told you that even now, the Lords return was near?

That the trumpet of God was at the lips!

Would it change the course of your day?

Would you fall on your face and repent?

Would you cry out for God's mercy?

There is still time!

The doors have not closed.

But I do believe that the supper for the Bride is being prepared.

Come to the feast of all feast's!

Take this time and judge yourselves.

Do Not Just believe what you have been told.

Search the scriptures.

The last time the Lord used water to destroy the earth but the next time it will be fire.

Fire represents purification.

There will be a new heaven and and new earth.

The old will pass away.

"Then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory"

Luke 21:27

Are You Ready...

Kingdom Food

Remember the last financial crisis?

It was the worst since the last great depression of 1929.

Alan Greenspan, former head of the US Reserves, made a statement saying:

The average person doesn't believe it will happen again.

We as human beings just believe we will continue and presume all will stay the same.

Not, I said the wise woman!

Assuming that things will continue as they always have;
 Is not just

21st-century-type thinking.

Jesus said,
 He would come back, but the people continued living in disobedience as

Though He would never return.

But His delay is only because of God's patience with us,
 for He is not willing that any shall perish,

But all should come to repentance.  (2Peter 3:9)

It is just plain wise to have a little food put up and put back.

I call mine Kingdom Food.

Birthday Surprise

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

HOW OLD ARE YOU?

50

We celebrated Danny's 50th birthday.

With a surprise birthday party.

He is finally 50 and now I will be 55.

Now I thought we would be senior citizens together!

How come I am always older?

Friends are family you choose for yourself.

(Jane Adams)

It takes a long time to grow an old friend.

We had a wonderful group picture taken just as the sun was setting.

But with everyones camera but mine. (WHAT)

Energy

Revive Me according to Your Word

I have been feeling very tired and worn out lately.  So I have decided to



add a few supplements to our daily diets.

Here is a list of them.

Brewer's Yeast

Royal Jelly

Lecithin Granules

Emergen-C  (Heart Health)

My hubby and myself are going to keep this up for at least 30 days.

We both take a multi- vitamin source daily, but we both felt the drain lately.

I start a new Bible study tomorrow.  And we are still canning!

Fire wood will be next on the list.

I just hope this will encourage even just one person as to feeling

tired or just worn out.

And to think Labor Day weekend is here!

Where did the summer go?

She watches over the ways of her household.

And she does not eat the bread of idleness Proverbs 31:27

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.

Blessings, Roxy



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?

Blessings, Roxy

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...

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,

Living From Glory To Glory
