Pastel Colors

 Look, the winter is past,
    and the rains are over and gone. 
 The flowers are springing up,
    the season of singing birds has come,
    and the cooing of turtledoves fills the air. 
 The fig trees are forming young fruit,
    and the fragrant grapevines are blossoming.
Rise up, my darling!
    Come away with me, my fair one!”' Song of Solomon 2:11-13 (NLT)

 Here is Christ's invitation to His Bride. His Church. His Love. His Darling and His fair one! Turn from the darkness of your sin to me and rise up. He calls us to Himself and His purity. Eternal life awaits those He has chosen. That's what we long for. Forgiveness. Acceptance. Freedom. Relationship. All of those things and more. Only He can justify us. Only He can offer it all.

 Dear Father. Thank you for Your Word. You spoke to me and I listened and because of Your Word I am saved. I still need You. Because of life's struggles, I need You to come to help me this hour and to get me through this, even until the day Christ returns for His Bride.

Thank you for saving me.

Thank you for saying that I am beautiful.

Thank you for reminding me of the sights and sounds of spring; the beauty that I see in the flowers, the sounds that I hear in the birds singing, and the turtledoves cooing. And even the fragrances of the blossoms and the fruit on the vine remind me of You. Though winter brings death, the season of spring promises new life! A new love! There is hope. My sins have been forgiven. This is the singing season!

I believe. I receive. So I sing my heart out. What I see in the natural realm must start in the supernatural. What is manifested in the supernatural realm must start in the natural. Lord, You are Great and Your Name is great. There is no one like You. Your Power is a mighty force. Your Word is a life-giving force. You are constantly on the move. I rejoice in that. I rejoice in the pastel colors. So I pray.

I rejoice in You. It's all about You. I worship You. You are my Beautiful One. It's all for Your Glory.

In Jesus's name.
Amen.

The Day of the Lord Approaches

' not forgetting to gather as a community, as some have forgotten, but encouraging each other, especially as the day of His return approaches.' Hebrews 10:25 (VOICE) Days of future trials are coming and yet are here. Last days. The day of His return approaches. No one knows the hour. So we are told to be even more diligent in our calling. We should be always watching, praying and bringing a word of encouragement to one another through the power of God. For what signs and wonders happen in the House of the Lord! Oh so amazing. The Miraculous. God provides the Fire. The battle is the Lords. We are told not to fret but only to enjoy the ride as we thank Him. So as I pray I want to thank you Lord. I am totally devoted to You. Equip me to preach the gospel. Now is the time and I will not forget my mission. As I arise I will not forget to put on my Full Armor of God. I will cling to your Bible. I am committed to carry it with me. I will hold it up as a sword in the town

Up is Down Times

‘What sorrow for those who say that evil is good and good is evil, that dark is light and light is dark, that bitter is sweet and sweet is bitter.’ Isaiah 5:20.   The Word of God really is like a light unto my feet, it illuminates my thoughts, it justifies my behaviors. The Word of God is good.    The Word of God is good because it reveals the Truth. God is Truth. God warns those that light up the darkness in order to rebel against Him. Darkness is sin. And in darkness sin is used to cover up sin. Lies are told to justify the ungodly; bitter is sweet, dark is light, up is down. Woe to those that condone and therefore justify sin. God will deal with them justly. God is Holy. Justice will be served.   And don't we see it being played out on the intellectual side? Being smart in the ways of the world might gain you some position of power and some stuff, but worldliness is lacking in righteousness and it will never prevail. There is nothing wrong with having nice things, bu

The Look

' Looking straight into their eyes, Jesus replied, “Humanly speaking, no one, because no one can save himself . But what seems impossible to you is never impossible to God!”' Matthew 19:26 (TPT) So if the poor deal with envy and the rich with pride, who then can get in? Who can be saved? None, except through the grace of God. Only God can save us. Only God can change the hearts and minds of men. Nothing is impossible to Him.  Dear Father Thank you for loving us and sending us Your Son Jesus our Savior even while we were yet sinners. When we were sinners You pursued us and turned our hearts toward You.  With just one look You could see into our souls. You knew what we needed. You did what needed to be done. You did the thing that seemed impossible to man. You perfected a Way for us to be reconciled to You and even with our sinful natures. You made converts out of us. It's nothing we could have done on our own without You. We could never doubt You. You cleaned us
