For years I have had this recurring vision of being assaulted. In this vision, I'm on my back, on the ground, and someone is unmercifully, beating me. As I sat in a hospital chapel a few days ago, God revealed the assailant: It was me. I had been beating myself up, over and over again about things that I did not know. As I sat there crying, praying and repenting for things I did not understand, could not explain and had no answer for; particularly in situations where I felt like I had let God down; God spoke to my spirit and told me that I wasn't supposed to know how to do it. If I knew how, then I would rely on my own ability, rather than trusting Him to work through me. He said, it's His job to know how and mine to be still while He...

Ravens don't just bring food, sometimes they provide protection as well. I was hesitant to share this because it was quite embarrassing and on the surface, iwas not a pretty little report; as Christians, we sometimes beat one another over the head with Philippians 4:8. But the GOD I serve is not only the GOD of love He's also the GOD of TRUTH, and the truth is; not everything is lovely but that doesn't mean it can't be of good report. Last night I had a major meltdown. I was literally and unnecessarily, thrown out onto the street in the rain by a security guard at Texas Children's Hospital unProfessional Building. Without going into great detail. After crying, having a serious pity party and dramatically determining that last would be...

Romans 8:27 "And He who searches hearts knows what is the mind of God, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints to the will of God". What is praying in the Will of God? When we pray for, and with others, as well as for ourselves, we must first test what we are praying for by the Word of God; the Will of God. "Let all things be tested; keep to what is good." (1 Thessalonians 5:21). How can we pray in the Will of God, and know the Will of God? We know this when we are praying in HIS Spirit. But what is really praying in 'His Spirit?' Prayer is sincere; prayer is sensible; prayer is the affectionate and lovingly, pouring out the heart and soul to God, through Jesus Christ, with the strength, knowledge, wisdom, and assistance of the...

GOD causes the sun to shine on the just as well as the unjust. Do we then say that GOD is unjust, absolutely not, GOD is gracious. Neither the kust nor unjust is worthy of grace. It's a gift and because gifts are free they can not be bought with our "worthiness." The gift of forgiveness is free as is the gift of love. Love doesn't lie Love is not abusive Love is not restricting Love does not demand silence Love does not conceal Love does not ridicule Love does not judge Love does not desert LOVE IS HEALING it's not enough to know was love is; you also must know what love is not. When you accuse someone of not knowing what love is; you then become responsible for exhibiting what love is by properly loving them. Many attempt to teach...

Life Changing events that do occur...are said 'to be'...for a purpose.

Please, if anyone has the time, I ask that you would pray these scriptures over me. I feel like the Lord is asking me to step out in complete trust in His promises and to never look backwards, or even to the right or the left. I was always a very unsure person in the past, continually pausing for human validation and assurance. I was always very timid and fearful, but I feel the call of the Lord is to seek Him in a new way and put away all of the old ways that do not serve me. My desires and dreams are worth nothing if I lose what the Father has for me, and I must seek Him in a new way. Please pray that I will truly get to know the Lord, that I will not take things off of the altar that I have laid before the Lord, and all of the...

Not sure if this is blog worthy. It's Just something that I've been dealing with and needed to say to GOD publicly. Heavenly FATHER, first and foremost, thank You for Your many blessings. It is because I know You to be the GOD of many blessings that there is no doubt in my mind that You will continue to be that. LORD, You said “I am the LORD, I change not†and I know that You are indeed the same yesterday, today and forever. GOD, I also know that there have been times when, though You did not change who You are, You did change Your plan as with Nineveh and Hezekiah. Lord, I’m asking You to make an exception in this case, as well. YOU have not spoken in secret from the beginning, so I will not ask this of You in secret. Surely...

Proverbs 19:21 NKJV There are many plans in a man's heart, Nevertheless it's the Lord's counsel that will stand. In our lives we sometimes find ourselves rushing around, we always seem to be in a hurry. One day my precious wife called my attention to this. We were headed to a certain destination and there was heavy traffic in front of us slowing me down. I proceeded to steadily work my way around each vehicle finally finding myself in front of the pack. Just ahead was a traffic light and I had to stop and within a few minutes we were looking side to side and there were the very same cars I had worked so hard to pass pulling up right beside us. All that rushing around was to no avail. We just laughed about it, but there...

Philippians 3:12-14(KJV) Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus. 13 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, 14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. The apostle Paul tells us in these scriptures that he is working toward becoming more Christ like . . . but had not achieved perfection. However, he does not allow his weaknesses and mistakes along the way to distract him from the mission Christ had called him to...

Mama on Her Knees By: Sandra Lott Sometimes they need to see mama on her knees. With all the love she has to give, she gives the most when she’s on her knees. Sometimes they need to see the faith behind her bended knees. Mama goes to the Lord in prayer. She loves her children so. Sometimes they need to see mama on her knees. She prays about their soul, she prays about their needs. With all the love she has to give, mama goes to the Lord in prayer. Sometimes they need to see mama on her knees. Sometimes they need to see the faith behind her bended knees. Now they’re grown with children of their own and they’re talking to the Lord on bended knees.
