Break Time

Hello Everyone,

I will be taking this week off for some much needed rest. I will return on Monday April 6th. Please lift us up in prayer this week. As always, enjoy the music, I shall return.

In Christ

For A Rainy Day

Give me your lantern and compass, give me a map, So I can find my way to the sacred mountain, to the place of your presence, To enter the place of worship, meet my exuberant God, Sing my thanks with a harp, magnificent God, my God. Why are you down in the dumps, dear soul? Why are you crying the blues? Fix my eyes on God— soon I'll be praising again. He puts a smile on my face. He's my God. Psalm 43:4-5 (The Message)

That scripture makes me want to shout for joy. The writer speaks of searching for His presence, almost as if he is on a journey to find the presence of the Lord. And as I looked further into this passage, I found a reason to make the journey, because when you find the presence of the Lord you will find that He is an exuberant God.

Look at these definitions of exuberant:

1. effusively and almost uninhibitedly enthusiastic; lavishly abundant: an exuberant welcome for the hero.

2. abounding in vitality; extremely joyful and vigorous.

3. extremely good; overflowing; plentiful: exuberant health.

4. profuse in growth or production; luxuriant; superabundant: exuberant vegetation.

That is my God and much more. Speak to your soul today! Do not fall into depression on this rainy day. We serve a Big God, an Exuberant God, it is all in His hands and He will work it out.

So this I must ask you today? Why are you down in the dumps, dear beloved? Why are you crying the blues? Fix your eyes on God— soon you will be praising again. He will put a smile on your face. He is your God.

Friends

Today, pick up the phone and call all of your friends and tell them how much they mean to you, that you love them and are praying for them. Do not take anything for granted. A flower is here one day and gone the next, so spend your time wisely, and enjoy your friends and your life. Make the most out of every moment that you have. How about getting before the Lord today and tell Him how much you love Him, and you could not make it without Him, share your heart with Him. He would love to "hear" your thoughts and ideas. He might even share His with you!

Also I would like all of us to pray for Pam & Steve today; They have 15 High school girls coming to their house for the weekend. They are hosting “Disciple Now” in their home. We want to pray that God will reveal himself to each of them in a special way. They are meeting at the church for group sessions and back at the host home for small meetings and some fun time. I want the Lord to build confidence in these girls (future Women of God). I am talking about the type of confidence that will take them successfully into womanhood, where boys and men cant mislead them and they will not fall for tricks from the enemy. They will know who they are in Christ and that the Father loves them very much.

I love all of you!
In Christ

A House Divided Cannot Stand

Luke 11:14-23

14 And He was casting out a demon, and it was mute. So it was, when the demon had gone out, that the mute spoke; and the multitudes marveled. 15 But some of them said, “He casts out demons by Beelzebub,the ruler of the demons.” 16 Others, testing Him, sought from Him a sign from heaven. 17 But He, knowing their thoughts, said to them: “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and a house divided against a house falls. 18 If Satan also is divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand? Because you say I cast out demons by Beelzebub. 19 And if I cast out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore they will be your judges. 20 But if I cast out demons with the finger of God, surely the kingdom of God has come upon you. 21 When a strong man, fully armed, guards his own palace, his goods are in peace. 22 But when a stronger than he comes upon him and overcomes him, he takes from him all his armor in which he trusted, and divides his spoils. 23 He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters.

This is an amazing passage. It clearly shows us the importance of having the same vision cast throughout your organization. It can be your business or ministry, but it is crucial for the success of any organization to have the same vision. You can look at any successful organization and you will find that they walked in unity and shared the same vision. If an organization is divided against itself, it will fall.

Jesus makes a remarkable statement; If Satan also is divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand? Is that not amazing. Satan must be unified in his vision toward man and this earth. If he is not, and he is divided, he will fall. Now I know what you are saying! I thought we win in the end? Yes we do. But for us to be successful in our walk with the Lord we must share the same vision. That was Jesus point. Whatever organization you are in, whether you are the leader or layman, you must carry the same vision as your organization or you will cause division. God does not like division. If you find yourself in a situation were your vision is different than the organization, get in your prayer closet and hear the Lord's voice so he can direct your path. Find the vision and stay focused.

Spiritual Knowledge

Luke 8:17-18 (Amplified Bible)

17For there is nothing hidden that shall not be disclosed, nor anything secret that shall not be known and come out into the open.

18Be careful therefore how you listen. For to him who has [spiritual knowledge] will more be given; and from him who does not have [spiritual knowledge], even what he thinks and guesses and supposes that he has will be taken away.

Beloved, never forget that people that try to harm you or lie about you will eventually be found out. The truth will always be revealed. Be careful of what you are hearing and whom you are hearing it from. Test all things you hear by the Spirit of God. He will give you wisdom and knowledge if you ask. Our God is most powerful, and He will give you spiritual knowledge so that you can walk in fullness doing His will hear on this earth.

Be Blessed

He Is God

Among the gods there is none like You, O Lord; Nor are there any works like Your works. All nations whom You have made Shall come and worship before You, O Lord, And shall glorify Your name. For You are great, and do wondrous things; You alone are God.

Psalm 86:8-10

Light In Darkness

Philippians 2:14-16 (New King James Version)

14 Do all things without complaining and disputing, 15 that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world, 16 holding fast the word of life, so that I may rejoice in the day of Christ that I have not run in vain or labored in vain.

Selah

Just be obedient and do what God has called you to do.

Just Do It!

20/20 Vision

20/20 vision in the natural is a term used to express normal visual acuity (the clarity or sharpness of vision) measured at a distance of 20 feet. If you have 20/20 vision, you can see clearly at 20 feet what should normally be seen at that distance. If you have 20/100 vision, it means that you must be as close as 20 feet to see what a person with normal vision can see at 100 feet.

There are other important vision skills, including peripheral awareness or side vision, eye coordination, depth perception, focusing ability and color vision that contribute to your overall visual ability.

Again, that is the natural. What about the spiritual? I believe that some things in the natural realm is a reflection of things in the spirit realm. Just like in the natural realm, the spirit realm has different levels of visual acuity also. You have sight, insight, and foresight (more on this later). Today, I want you to meditate on a Hymn of Faith. As your vision sharpens, it becomes a challenge to stay focused on the vision God has given you. We tend to let the circumstances around us dictate the progress of the vision. Especially if it is been a long time coming. I think Habakkuk sums it up perfectly. Enjoy! Habakkuk 3:17-19

A Hymn of Faith

Though the fig tree may not blossom, Nor fruit be on the vines; Though the labor of the olive may fail, And the fields yield no food; Though the flock may be cut off from the fold, And there be no herd in the stalls— Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation. The LORD God is my strength; He will make my feet like deer’s feet, And He will make me walk on my high hills.

To the Chief Musician. With my stringed instruments.

Prayer

Hey, I am back. Sorry for the delay. All I can say is wow! It is really a strange and trying time we are living in, which brings me to my point today. You must not cease praying. Even if you do not see the result instantly, if you believe it in your heart it will come to pass.

What a lot of us forget is there are wars going on. No, not man wars, but spiritual wars in the heavens. Ephesians tells us that we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against rulers of darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places (6:12). I think the fight is stronger at this point in time than ever before. So do not think it strange these fiery trials you are going through. You must stand and put on your amour on and go to the battle field and kick some devil butt. Remember your help is on the way.

I must tell you that the enemy opposes your prayers. This is evident in the Book of Daniel. Daniel was a praying man. He prayed at least three times a day, that is because he new where his power came from.

In Daniel 9:19 We see Daniel in continued prayer, and he has gotten more passionate with his supplication to the Lord. He prays: O Lord, hear! O Lord, forgive! O Lord, listen and act! Do not delay for Your own sake, my God, for Your city and Your people are called by Your name.”

As Daniel continued in prayer, God sent the angel Gabriel to visit him. Gabriel then reveals the way the enemy opposes the prayer's you offer up to the Lord.

Then he said to me, “Do not fear, Daniel, for from the first day that you set your heart to understand, and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard; and I have come because of your words. But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me twenty-one days; and behold, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, for I had been left alone there with the kings of Persia. NKJ Daniel 10:12-13

I want you to understand they prayer you prayed yesterday may be on the way. You may, as Daniel, will have to fast and continue to pray for 21 days or until your answer arrives. That even means if it takes a month, two months or a year. Never quit, never give up. Fight the good fight of faith. You are victorious in Christ.

In Christ

Obedience

John 14:15 says, "If you love me, you will obey what I command."

It is important to God to be obedient to His words and commands. Jesus said the two greatest commandments is; "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind." This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: "Love your neighbor as yourself." All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.'"

As I stated last night Jesus is very concerned about us taking control of our lives. He wants us to live an abundant life, He wants us to believe in Him. He wants us to come up higher and be "like" Him. When we are being obedient to God, we are doing just that: knowing Him, loving Him, and having a personal, intimate relationship with Him. To do this, we must be attentive to God's words. This is not an option, because you can't have an intimate relationship with Jesus and trample on the words He taught. Being obedient to God is not an action to keep you out of hell. Obedience to God is living God's Word because you want to and enjoy being filled with the love of Jesus, and walk in the power of the Most High God.

As you take a step in obedience, you will get people that are for you, but you will also get people that are against you. Do not let that bother you, press on anyway! you just got to keep on keeping on. Besides, they were praising Jesus one day and shouting "crucify Him the next". What is most important is that you do the Fathers will. Just do it!

Praise Him

Psalm 100

A Psalm of Thanksgiving. 1 Make a joyful shout to the LORD, all you lands! 2 Serve the LORD with gladness; Come before His presence with singing. 3 Know that the LORD, He is God; It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; We are His people and the sheep of His pasture. 4 Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, And into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him, and bless His name. 5 For the LORD is good; His mercy is everlasting, And His truth endures to all generations.

Selah

Facing Fears

With God, all things are possible!

You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, "I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along." . . . You must do the thing you think you cannot do.

New Manifestation

Beloved,

With all the negative reports we are hearing on our left & our right, I thought it of the utmost importance that I share this word with you from Eileen Fisher. Even though the Church is going through a great shaking, our God still loves us and will feed us. His power has not faded away. In fact, He is about to show out. Enjoy the word of the Lord!

The Lord Says, "Get Ready for a New Wind, and in this Wind will Come My Glory in a New Manifestation!"

The following prophetic word was given by Eileen Fisher on January 27, 2009, during her weekly Prophetic School of the Holy Spirit meeting in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

The Lord says, "Get ready for a new wind, and in this wind will come My glory in a new manifestation. Get ready to hear the wheels that will begin to turn in the spirit realm. For as these wheels turn in the spirit realm, they will carry My people higher into the Spirit than they dreamt was ever available. For I am going to start to speak Spirit-to-spirit because My people have made so many choices from the soul's realm and they have looked to the left or to the right for confirmation. But as My people have chosen to look up, My Spirit will descend upon them and join the agreement that He has already sealed within their spirits.

"I Am Calling My People to Rise Up and Follow a Cloud"

"There will be an envelope that will be opened, and coming are new orders over My Church. In this new order that is coming over My Church, at first it will cause things to rise up and cause a stench even to the saints of Holiness. But in that stench there will come that transformation, of the smoke, which will cause My presence to come forth. In that smoke, when it is all cleared and everything has settled, you will realize that there has been a cloud of deposit of holiness that will remain.


"I am calling My people to rise up and follow a cloud. This cloud will touch down and descend upon them. In the midst of this cloud there will come miracle, after miracle, after miracle. For there will be a manifestation of the visitation of the heaviness of My presence," says the Lord your God. "For I do go, to and fro from the earth, looking for hearts that at all cost will follow Me, to make Me a manger that I can lie in once again," says the Lord.

"There will Come Back Smiles and there will Come Back Laughter"

"You will understand that as a child lies in the manger there were smiles, so shall the joy come back to the Church. There will come back smiles and there will come back laughter. For I have been grieved by the tears of My Bride. My Bride has been judged, My Bride has been defiled, My Bride has been abused," He says, "but now the Groom has entered the sanctuary and has taken the Bride aside and has reclothed her with dignity, respect and honor.

"Do not be concerned when you get more and more reports that judgment has come to the House of the Lord. But remember this My people: you are My temple, and remember that grace and judgment come hand in hand. I do not judge to condemn. I judge to bring knowledge for salvation.

"And, so I am about to do a new move," says the Lord, "for you will have people come to you once again who are hungry to get saved. You will have people coming again asking where is His power resting?" He says, "It will be resting upon you. I will come in a new wave and in a new visitation of My presence. For I have seen your hearts that are searching and I have seen the wounds that have been left gaping and bleeding by the words and the curses of man."


He says, "I am going to bind up the wounds, and in the process I am going to deposit within that wound: healing virtue of hope. I will deposit within that wound - supernatural healing."

Love and Blessings,
Eileen Fisher
