Jesus Wants To Heal You

Jesus Wants To Heal You
May 31, 2011



My Dad used to say that tears were a language God understands. Tonight though it is late in coming down stairs and passing by some photos, I picked up one of my precious Dad who is now with Jesus. It is not very often that I do this but as I did tears came to my eyes. I said to myself, "I miss him but he is in a far better place". I'm grateful to Father for a very good relationship with my Dad but know that everyone is not so fortunate. There are those of you that have lost a Dad, perhaps recently or a good while ago and for some your Dad is still living, yet you still need healing of your memories. What comes to mind when you think about your relationship with you Dad? 


Your Heavenly Father will heal you everywhere you hurt as you forgive your Dad for all the mistakes he made. You see the Lord wants you to be able to move beyond the hurt and pain to a place of forgiveness and this will change how you view your Abba Father. We can often view the Lord the way we see our earthly Dad, so won't you take time with Father and ask Him for the grace to forgive, in Jesus name. In forgiving you will move past your pain and one day minister to others. Remember only the Lord is able to heal you everywhere you hurt.

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins,and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 1 John 1:9

Calm Your Storm

Calm Your Storm
May 30, 2011
                     
Do you ever feel that you need more of God?  Do you feel overwhelmed with all that is taking place in the nations?  Does it seem that at times the Lord is silent when you want to hear from Him and know what is going to take place and when?  Then, you are not alone.  Many are feeling this way.  The truth is, Father will reveal to us what He wants us to know when He wants us to know it, as we spend time with Him.  How else can we hear except we go to Father and ask Him?  It is time consuming but so very worthwhile for nothing can put a price on hearing, His still small voice.
 Amid all the clatter, come aside and hear Him. Midst all the storms of life, let Father calm them by sitting in His presence.  Such peace is found when we come to Him and for even a moment, just rest in His perfect finished work.  Realize you are a work in progress and that He knows you better than you know yourself.  Knowing this just come to Him as you are and sit in His presence, for in it is fullness of joy. You will show me the path of life: in your presence is fullness of joy; at your right hand there are pleasures for ever more.  Psalm 16:11

The Sufferings Of This Present Time

The Sufferings Of This Present Time
May 27, 2011



We do not fully understand suffering and it is not something anyone likes to go through and yet the scripture speaks of the fellowship of His sufferings and that He learned obedience through the things He suffered. God uses even the suffering that we go through in our lives. There are many right now who are suffering in one way or another. We need to pray for one another and stand with our brothers and sisters as they also go through life's daily trials. Let us endure hardness as good soldiers of Christ and know that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.

18For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. Romans 8:18

Is Your Life Busy?

Is Your Life Busy?
May 26, 2011


This morning life is happening at too fast a pace for me and one must guard against running ahead of the Lord. Years of wisdom from Father's heart have taught me that this is not a wise thing to do. Instead in choosing to sitting down with Father amidst all the little storms of life that could have consumed me, peace reigned. Everything was crying out, fix me, do me, its garbage day and the man is coming to cut the grass. Realizing of course that the issue was that at four am I was still wide awake and so had only a few hours sleep my body need to slow down to compensate and get my spiritual house in order.

My conclusion is that God time is so very precious that we cannot let anything replace it because if we give it opportunity it will. Wanting to be the intercessor God has called me to be, one needs to be available when He calls. At times it is still a learning process. The United States has been heavy on my heart as have all my precious American brothers and sisters. Their troubles are our troubles. There is a price to pay in choosing to be at Father's feet but it is worth the price to see others protected by our prayers of intercession.

Let us continue to pray for America and those that are suffering during these tornadoes and floods. One of my sisters shared that her area has a tornado warning later today. Let us lay down our lives for our friends, watch and pray with them and together as a body we will overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the Word of our testimony. Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. John 15:13

Hope in Jesus
May 25, 2011


Gods mercies to us are fresh each morning. We can therefore expect from God and put our hope in Him. When all around us seems to fail we know the Lord is faithful and true. He alone is the eternal one and He is good. His mercies endure forever. Let's look patiently to Him today and put ALL of our trust in Him. Let us hope and wait for the deliverance of the Lord. Faith is the victory that overcomes the world and because of Jesus you have hope today. O give thanks to the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endures for ever. Psalm 136:1

From God's Heart To Yours -

I am convinced that some mornings are so difficult for some because they do not start their day with Father. Praising the name of the Lord with hands uplifted overhead are a very good way to start the day. We need to set our hearts on things above and not on the things of this earth. That way, we go about our day, with our eyes on Jesus the author and finisher of our faith. When we go without breakfast by noon one can feel a little weak and it is the same way with our spiritual food. We need time in the Word of God so that we might meditate on it throughout our day.

When trials come and they will, then we put on the armor of God and are able to stand with a right spirit, in the midst of the storms of life. If you have not yet begun to praise the Lord or read His word it is not too late. Why not take some time now and be refreshed. Let the Lord minister to you out of His precious Word. To appoint to them that mourn in Zion, to give to them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.Isaiah 61:3
