Last night the Lord gave me a Scripture that has just stayed with me. It woke me up early this morning. We all know the Millennial scriptures - and see the artistry - of the Isaiah 11 passage: 6 "The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, the leopard shall lie down with the young goat, the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; And a little child shall lead them. 7 The cow and the bear shall graze;
Psalm 118:23-24 captivates me! I love when I wake in the morning hearing His loving kindness ministering to my heart. I love that we serve a God that has given us the ability to choose, the question is, "What will we choose this day?" Psalm 118:23-24 in the Passion says, "The Lord himself is the one who has done this, and it's so AMAZING, so MARVELOUS to see! 24 This is the day of the Lord that brings GLADNESS and JOY, filling our hearts with glee." Don't you just love this passage of scripture...His promise to you and I!
The Lord recently began to speak to me about the anointing and grace that is on the people of God to build in this season. As the Lord spoke to me about this building season, I sensed strongly that this is an hour for the Nehemiahs to arise! Those who will be courageous and bold enough to build even in difficulty and opposition. God is looking for those who will stand up, just like Nehemiah did and build for the kingdom of God in this critical season!
What are the desires of your heart? Is that something you've allowed yourself to think about before? In this season, it's so important, now more than ever, to tune into what God is speaking to you concerning your destiny, desires, and dreams. He's looking to promote and advance you! Many people today are seeking out their life purpose, and God is revealing this to you in this season. Your life purpose is the very reason you were created. A need for purpose is rooted in our human nature.
There are moments when I long for an answer, clarity, inspiration, relief, or hope and receive nothing. Even in earnest seeking, eager anticipation, a proper posture, an open heart, a willing spirit—nothing. Then there are moments when I receive an answer, clarity, inspiration, relief, and hope when I least expect it. Not seeking, not anticipating, yet a glimpse is given. So what to conclude?
I saw prophetic writers delivering reports to people to whom they are in close relationship with. These reports were bound like books with critical subjects on the front cover and spines that were hand sewn. These reports ranged from collections of letters and prayers to prophetic words and promises. The recipients were people who were intimate with the prophetic writer, like parents, children, close friends, or people in close relationship of some sort. They knew the prophetic writer. When the recipient extended the reports to them, the books were simply transferred to their hands and opened. I saw people weeping as they received and heard the Words of the Lord. I heard the word, "Witness report." Amen
I woke up this morning with a question in my mind that seems unrelated to where God led me. The question centered around why evil always seems to win. We are seeing it all over this world right now and in our personal worlds. I questioned where is God's intervention as promised for His children. Better yet, because God cannot lie, where were we, as born again children of God, missing it? I was led to Mark 11:23, but I still needed some clarification – again this seemed unrelated. I was impressed to go and read the verses leading up to this "Word" from Jesus to determine the context. My attention was drawn to the cursing of the fig tree (why?) and then the activity that was going on in the Temple.
Life is hard, isn't it? Disappointments hammer us ferociously and relentlessly while discouragement bullies us daily. Difficult people refuse to leave us alone and rejection is often a constant companion. There have been hard things in my life that have threatened to crush the very purpose for my existence. I know that you have experienced the hard in life as well, although yours might look different than mine.I may not understand what you are going through today, but I do know the one who knows your pain and I am intimately acquainted with the one who hears your gut-wrenching cries.
One of the most difficult things we can do in life can be found in leaving "ok" or "good enough" on the innate whisper that there is "greater than imaginable." We all have had those moments of inspiration where the Divine whispers "I have so much more for you." Our response or reaction to moments like these can have a profound impact on our lives — we can shrink back into our comfort zone (often a deep rut if we're honest), or we can stand up and heed that drawing. The beautiful thing is that it's always our choice, and one that can be extremely rewarding and fulfilling if we dare to "step out onto the water."
I have lived in New York City for over six decades and have observed many kinds of people: those with a victim mentality and those with a victor mentality. In this article, I will examine some traits that are distinct to each group. Those with the victim mindset interpret the world in a completely different way than those with the victor mindset. People with a victim mindset view an obstacle as an unfair challenge, while the latter view obstacles as an opportunity to overcome. It is obvious to most that in American politics, candidates often attempt to appeal to these groups.
