Timing is Everything

'For everything there is a season,
    a time for every activity under heaven.' Ecclesiastes 3:1 (NLT)

 Everything has its own appointed time and season. Take God's Creation, it came into being when God, the Creator spoke! Beautiful. Masterfully designed! Thus, our Creator is in authority over all things big and small that He has created. He is present and His presence can be seen and felt in the atmosphere and beyond, and we are told by Him that there will be a day when our enemy the devil will be defeated and Christ will reign on earth. We believe that there will be a day when Christ returns and then His judgment. Hallelujah!

We all have only one life to live and we should strive to be the best we can be as lifelong learners for and disciples of Christ, for He has given us everything that we have and everything that we  need.  Don't fear. Our time shall come. Our days are numbered. Our time shall end. Then the judgment. There is a season for every business under heaven. Not to grieve when the thing we have longed for ends. Not to be concerned that the things of this world will end. Nothing is perpetual. Nothing but the spiritual is eternal. So live.

 So rejoice! Find joy in the living and the doing while you can. Take it all a day at a time and be grateful. Be gracious. God has everything under His control.

'He said, “I came naked from my mother’s womb, and I will be naked when I leave. The Lord gave me what I had,  and the Lord has taken it away. Praise the name of the Lord!”' Job 1:21 (NLT)

Dear Father. Thank you for Your Word. Forgive me for my sins.  Have Your way Lord. Take me through this long awaited season of rest! I stand in the gap for my family and friends and community. I pray for their salvation. Thank you for another Great Awakening that is happening to my country. I am so blessed to be alive to see it and to have found this beautiful spot to rest. Keep me always in Your Will and under Your Anointing. In Jesus's mighty 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
