Receiving My Spiritual Inheritance

'For you did not receive the spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the spirit of sonship. When we cry, “Abba! Father!' Romans 8:15 (RSV)

And it is a process for me in becoming the daughter of God. There have been so many moments of meeting Him there in my prayer room and being filled with His spirit. That has been where it started and where it will end. It is by obedience in intercessory prayer that He has prepared me for the life of the Father in me. And it was in that very room fifteen years ago that the Lord came to me while I was seeking more of Him. It was such a real visitation and even though God is Spirit, I could even hear Him breathing. There He was as that room became filled with His Glory and the most loving presence that I have ever known came over me and into me. 

The day I met the Father I began receiving a little more of my Spiritual inheritance. The Father's presence changed the atmosphere. Even though I was dealing with some tough issues at the time, all fear was gone. I felt safe. The most gracious spirit came over me and it lasted for days. His presence put His complete Love for everyone into my heart. Everything seemed to fall into place in my life. I felt free as the joy of the Lord filled my heart that day. Since then, I have never looked back. What an amazing encounter. What an amazing God. What an unbelievable gift it is to be adopted into His Kingdom and to be able to call Him Father!

Dear Father. Knowing You is the beginning of wisdom. Thank You for the times that You make Your presence known to us. Thank You for the glimpses that You give us of Your very nature, that of love. Love that completes us. Love that is good and wonderful and kind. And even the Love that overwhelms us at times when we need You the most. We respect You and we thank you that we can call You our Father. Make Yourself at home in us. Thank You Jesus for Your sacrifice at the Cross. In Jesus's name. Amen.

'When I saw him, I fell at his feet like a dead man. He placed his right hand on me and said, “Do not be afraid. I am the First and the Last—  the Living One. I was dead and, see, I am alive forever and ever! I also hold the keys of death and hell .' Revelation 1:17-18 (EHV) Dear Father.  Because of You and who You are I do not fear. You are Divine. You are Eternal. You are God. You were here before the world began and will be here at the end. Thank You, Father, for sending Your Son Jesus Christ, the Living One, to die for me. I recognized that I was a sinner and I made Jesus Lord of my life. Though You suffered and died, I know that Jesus lives and that He is my life source. Without Him I am nothing. He has complete authority. He has the power over life and death. He controls not only when I die but where I will go after I die as well.You comfort me with Your Word.  Let me be forever grateful and obey Your Word and live my life for Him. Jesus, You alone hav

Sending Out Invitations to the Concert

'We are confident that God is able to orchestrate everything to work toward something good and beautiful when we love Him and accept His invitation to live according to His plan. ' Romans 8:28 (VOICE) One example of God's love can be seen in the book of Esther. Lessons from the Bible can reassure us of God's love for us and they show us that His ways are good and so much higher than our own. How powerful. In Chapter three, the evil ideas of Haman, to have all the Jews exterminated, had been decreed by the king, and the money set aside in an account for the diabolical deeds and the date was set on the calendar for the bloodshed! That part is so incredible, that one man was given that much power. Just imagine it if you were a Jew. The date for the destruction of your entire race was set and the preparations to follow through with it were being made. Thankfully, our God is greater. Our God is able. He is able to confuse the bad plans of men in power. O

  ' Then Nebuchadnezzar was furious with Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, and his attitude toward them changed. He ordered the furnace heated seven times hotter than usual' Daniel 3:19 (NIV) To the leaders that are unprepared for the likes of young people full of passion. For the wicked rulers who demand men to bow a knee to them, and worship them like gods. To the world that has lost its way and punishes the faithful to the extreme, even death. We pray for thee. Let the world know that we worship no one but the One True God. Amen. Dear Father We pray for evil leaders that desire to turn their nation into evil. We lift up righteousness and righteous leaders, we lift You up. You are the One True God in whom we serve. You are the Holy God in whom we believe. You provide the God-fearing leaders that we need when we need them. We pray for those leaders. We pray for more people with courage to refuse to bow the knee to mere man. Even when we live in times when there seem
