Amanda Grace discusses what she heard the Lord say in the Spirit and an image of a snake coiled around a dead piece of wood. She also discusses her personal; testimony, how broken she was, and how the Lord restored her after she was beyond recognition. Amanda shows the picture of what she looked like going through this trial for the first time publicly. The Lord truly took an aweful trial ad turned it into an incredible testimony!! Don’t give up! You are closer than you think to your Breakthrough!! God Bless you all!! If you would like to contact Amanda Grace via email please email her at amandagrace4him@gmail.com if you have questions or comments or would like more information into sowing into what she does!

 

I was watching the video that is linked above and I know that I needed to hear this. It is a timely word so I am sharing it with whomsoever will be willing to hear it and obey. Obedience is better than sacrifice!

What is highlighted in my heart at this moment is:

Speak the PROMISE don't speak the problem! Let it go. It is dead wood and needs to be removed from your life because it is causing damage as long as it is there. The dragon is the problem. Suffocate it. Don't give it air. Speak scriptures. 

Make a joyful noise unto the Lord! 

I will enter your gates with thanksgiving in my heart. I will enter your courts with praise! I will say this is the day that the Lord has made. I will rejoice for He has made me glad! He has made me glad, He has made me glad, I will rejoice for He has made me glad!

I pray this is a blessing to you!

An Amazing Man of God ...

[Original publish date: 6/26/20]

Went Home to Jesus yesterday, June 25, 2020.

I met William (Brother Billy) Forrest 53 weeks and 6 days ago. My best friend of 37 years and I went to lunch at Denny's & invited an older gentleman from her daughter's church to eat with us. Little did I know how that one lunch meeting would change my life!

Brother Billy's wife, Christine, went home to be with the Lord on December 31, 2010. He told us that it was 8 years, 6 months, and 13 days since she left him. During our lunch conversation it was revealed that Brother Billy and his Christine met in school. She was the only girl that Brother Billy ever kissed on the lips! After graduation, they married and started out as share croppers with $100 to their name. Brother Billy became a preacher and started churches in Georgia. Brother Billy said his Christine taught him the value of saving, so they always put a little back. He played guitar, self taught, and sang! It was always a joyful time to hear him play and sing! He always sang to Christine each night before he would go to sleep.

I have never seen a mortal love so deep as the one that Brother Billy shared with his wife, Christine! The purity of his love for her and hers for him will stay with me for the rest of my life and beyond! Yes, Jesus loves me unconditionally and nothing compares to that love! Brother Billy would totally agree!

Tammie and I went to visit Brother Billy last Saturday, June 20th. It was 53 weeks to the day since I first met him. Brother Billy joined in as he could when we sang these songs:

Power in the Blood,

Yes, Lord, Yes,

I'll Fly Away

When We All Get To Heaven

Amazing Grace

T

After worship in song, Brother Billy led all of us that were there in Communion. It was a wonderful time! I knew that this would be the last time I would see Brother Billy this side of Heaven! He passed away 4 days later. I cannot be sad ... he finished the race ... loving Jesus with his whole heart, mind, soul, and strength!

I just wanted to do a quick blog post to honor the man that the Lord allowed me to meet and gave me the privilege and honor to minister to through prayer cards and letters. I pray for a special anointing of Salvation on those cards and letters! That anyone that touches them or reads them will feel a mighty call of Holy Spirit to accept Jesus as their Savior! I don't think he ever knew what a blessing he was to so many, myself included! Brother Billy, after 9 years, 6 months and 25 days: you went home to meet Jesus and are reunited with your beloved Christine! We will miss you very much but are so happy you are HOME now and free of pain!

In Loving Memory of Brother Billy: Power in the Blood

REV. WILLIAM J. "BILLY" FORREST, JR.

Be encouraged everyone! Look to the Lord! Rely and Trust in Him! We are in the final seconds before Jesus' return, nothing is happening here that God hasn't allowed. Christians, this is as bad as it gets for us! We go in the Rapture before the Tribulation starts. If you aren't saved, you need to give your heart to Jesus while there is yet time!

UPDATE: I also did not know, until a couple of weeks later, that meeting with Brother Billy at his house to sing and take communion together would be the last time my BFF & I would do anything together face-to-face. I did reach out to her in a letter on July 10, 2020 but nothing came of it.  God knew how, why, and when this would happen. Trust in Him for everything!

There Was Jesus ...

When the life I built came crashing to the ground 
When the friends I had were nowhere to be found 
I couldn't see it then but I can see it now 
There was Jesus 

Zach Williams, Dolly Parton - There Was Jesus (Official Music Video)

There Was Jesus 
Every time I tried to make it on my own 
Every time I tried to stand and start to fall 
All those lonely roads that I have travelled on 
There was Jesus 

When the life I built came crashing to the ground 
When the friends I had were nowhere to be found 
I couldn't see it then but I can see it now 
There was Jesus 

Chorus
In the waiting, in the searching 
In the healing and the hurting 
Like a blessing buried in the broken pieces 
Every minute, every moment 
Of where I been and where I'm going 
Even when I didn't know it 
Or couldn't see it 
There was Jesus 

 For this man who needs amazing kind of grace 
For forgiveness at a price I couldn’t pay 
I’m not perfect so I thank God every day 
There was Jesus 

Chorus

On the mountain in the valleys (There was Jesus) 
In the shadows of the alleys (There was Jesus) 
In the fire, in the flood (There was Jesus) 
Always is and always was I never walk alone

I don't know where you are walking today. Are you at peace? Are you worried? Are you hurting? Are you happy? It doesn't matter what state you find yourself during these chaotic times ... always remember ... THERE WAS JESUS! 

In Revelation 2:4 , Jesus says to the church in Ephesus, “But I have this against you, that you have left your first love.” 
It means “first in time or place; first in rank; first, at the first” (Strong's #4413 - πρῶτος - Old & New Testament Greek Lexicon ).


If this is where you find yourself, look to the Lord and return to your FIRST LOVE! If you don't know Jesus as your Savior, NOW is the best time to accept His sacrifice for YOU! This may be the very last time you hear this ... we are not promised our next breath ... so don't put it off!

Maranatha,
Anna

Friends

© Anita M. Weld 1996

What qualities make a faithful friend?

One on whom you can depend

To speak the truth without offense.

To share their thoughts without pretense.

It takes sincerely loving God.

To willingly walk the path Jesus trod.

To lay their life down for their friend

When help is needed, hand and heart extend.

A true friend is very rare indeed.

So many can't see beyond their own need.

Their hardness of heart won't comfort me

I can love as Jesus or choose to flee.

I have friends that let me be

All that I am and see what God sees.

I have truly found treasures so rare.

I honor those whose friendship I share!

Maranatha,

Anna

What Would You Do ...

If you were like the woman with an issue of blood in the Bible. If you don't know of her, here are the scriptures with explanations.

WOMAN WITH ISSUE OF BLOOD

The Woman Who Was Healed By A Touch

Matthew 9:20-22; Mark 5:25-34; Luke 8:43-48

God has not, does not, and will not change! The miracles in the Bible ARE still available today. Like the woman with the issue of blood for 12 years ... society said she was 'unclean' but her faith was strong enough that if she could get to Jesus and just touch the hem of His garment, she would be made whole! 

I am publicly taking a step of FAITH right now! I believe that God WILL heal me - of everything that is wrong with me (even including scars from surgery) in His appointed time. In addition to my health, there are years that have been stolen from me that God is going to restore. Holy Spirit confirms this to me every time I think of it, speak of it, write it down ... any way that I communicate my belief in His promise as He has shown it to me.

In the course or our life, we all have habits that we don't really think about. We have weekend habits. We have week day habits. We have habits we are comfortable with and habits we would like to stop doing. Are you ready to live a life that is Holy? Are you ready to give the habits that are not pleasing to God and ask Him for help in laying them down? Time is short. Make the most of it!

1 Peter 1:16(KJV) 

Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.

Are you living for your Savior?  Are you living for yourself? Are you just doing the minimum needed to get by?  

How much fuel do YOU have?

It all depends on you and your choices. No one can walk this life for you. No one can make this decision for you. Will you be lukewarm or will you be on fire for the Lord?

Noblesville West Middle School ...

are you asking WHERE was GOD?  

I have personal experience to share with you about what God was doing with myself and another of His children on the morning of Noblesville West Middle School shooting. The scene below started a few minutes previous to the shooting, 911 got the call at 9:06 AM and the situation, as we know, was resolved quickly.
God's 6 Minute Timing: 40 second shooter ID, shooter contained, victims transported

My day started out as it usually does. Get up. Take my meds & insulins. Put on the Whole Armor of God while in the shower. Calling out and lifting up in prayer those He puts on my heart. Praying a Hedge of Protection and asking for Travel Mercies for the day. Finish getting ready and then leave for work.

All of this starts through Messenger:

--AMW At 8:30 AM I sent out a beautiful picture of an owl taken the previous day at my place of employment by a coworker

++SYW 8:46 AM 'How beautiful'

--AMW 8:46 AM 'God makes BEAUTIFUL animals! Luv ur post this morning too'  

Click to read--> Change The Way You Think

++SYW 8:54 AM 'Thank you... working and praying on some stuff with CBW and some of her friends this summer... praying a lot this morning Mrs Anita... crying out to God for our kids nowadays... my heart is so heavy for what they know and accept now... 6th grade and drinking and drugs and sex... I’m starting a get together in July for girls in middle school to be in prayer, study together, and talk to them about these things. And how to handle them when brought to them. How to be strong in their faith... and so much more... it’s tearing me apart'

++SYW 8:54 AM Bout to go start our morning devotion.. I’ll talk to you later. Just be praying for us please. I love you so much! 😘

--AMW 8:55 AM You r in God's perfect timing luv u too. TTYL

Please notice how preparation for God to use us started before He called upon us. We both have a relationship with Jesus and both want to draw closer to Him. After reading SYW teaching post on Facebook, and then sharing the owl with her and others, when SYW shared the burden God had on her heart ... Holy Spirit made it my heart's burden at that moment as well and called me to start PRAYING IN THE SPIRIT IMMEDIATELY!!!

It was only later, when the unction to pray so intensely was lifted, that I heard about the school shooting. It was then I realized that God had me and other prayer warriors actively taking up prayer and shouting the spiritual battle cry to protect the children from evil. That lifted up the teacher who was willing and gave him strength and power to act quickly, in the face of the threat, to protect the children. 

Matthew 19:14 (KJV)

But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.

When I am called to prayer this way, I do not ask God any details. It isn't my place to ask ... it does not matter Who? What? Why? When? Where? All that matters is God wants to use me for His Purposes Right NOW ... I trust him and I obey in that moment. It is important you understand that this does not make me in any way better than any other of His children. It is my walk with Him that I willing allow Him to direct. This relationship with Him is available to you, if you want it. Count the cost ... Jesus paid a price for us we couldn't pay ... I lay down my life for the one who died for me, willingly.

Everyone needs to hear what God can do when we seek His Will and the desires of His heart until we make them our will and our desires. When we walk with Him, we are instant in season and out of season. When Holy Spirit calls for heartfelt prayer, we do not hesitate but immediately obey.

Even though we have kicked Him out of our schools, our nation, and our lives ... God was right where He has always been ... Yahushua is waiting for us with His arms open wide in LOVE so please turn to Him so He can welcome us home. Be aware, time is running out ... soon it will be forever too late to choose Jesus,  and you will have chosen eternity and the eternal allegiance that was never meant for you. 

Maranatha,

Anna

Watchman ...

will you be faithful to sound the alarm?!!

I am sharing what the Lord has called me to walk in. As a watchman, He has charged me with a deeper walk than I ever knew before in July 2015, when He gave me a new name of Anna. He alone guides my steps: my feet would never have started or made this journey without Him calling and walking beside me. This journey was started in 1968, although I did not know it then. All of my days, past and future, are recorded in Heaven in the book of my life.

My heart is heavy for the lost and the lukewarm. We are so far away from where God intended us to be. We have bought into the lies of satan. We have made our material wealth and worldly reputation of more importance than our One True God. We are not following His Ten Commandments as our path to becoming more like Jesus.

What has happened to the watchmen that have been called? Have you sold your calling out for silver, gold, material things, accolades of man? Did you think you would be popular when you give the WARNING messages the Lord has given you to shout?! This is not negotiable ... it is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the Living God! I stand apart from you who have walked away. Lord, please continue to hold me, strengthen me, love me and give me messages for these end times. It is a privilege to walk in these last days ... I need no approval of man. In fact, if man approves of me ... I know I will be on the wrong road! If they hated Jesus, surely they will hate His true followers.

Excerpts: 
"I am unveiling mysteries of My Kingdom and sharing more of My heart than ever before. Subtle moves of My Spirit you have experienced in the past will become much more powerful and a greater part of your reality here." 
"The yoke upon the world now is one offered by the prince of darkness and its burden no one can carry, nor was anyone meant to carry it. My yoke is easy and My burden is light, so let go My children of all of it. It is time. This world is not your home, so walk away from that last bit you have clung to. I have it all in hand."

Daniel 11:32 And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.

The enemy of your soul is continually roaring and seeking you out. There is no protection apart from Jesus!

Maranatha,
Anna

Yes, You CAN Hear from God ...

If you put God first and are still, quiet, and wait at His feet for His Word and Wisdom.

This is the song I was led to for this blog post. Click the link to listen --> Word of God Speak by Mercy Me 

As an example: this is the Word that I received from the Lord. Psalm 27, Psalm 90, Psalm 147. I accept His Will & His Way for my life. I lay it down for His use each day. Lord, help me to die to myself each moment of each day. I ask to be an Instrument in your hands, in whatever way you choose. I love you, Lord, with all my heart, soul, mind, and strength! Thank You, Abba, In Jesus name. Amen.

If you do not follow the Lord and hear His directions to you, the coming days of darkness will terrify you!

Maranatha,
Anna

********
Reference verses for the three Psalms given to me:

Psalm 27 (KJV)
1 The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?
2 When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.
3 Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.
4 One thing have I desired of the Lord, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to enquire in his temple.
5 For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.
6 And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the Lord.
7 Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me.
8 When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, Lord, will I seek.
9 Hide not thy face far from me; put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation.
10 When my father and my mother forsake me, then the Lord will take me up.
11 Teach me thy way, O Lord, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies.
12 Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty.
13 I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.
14 Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord.

Psalm 90 (KJV)
1 Lord, thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations.
2 Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.
3 Thou turnest man to destruction; and sayest, Return, ye children of men.
4 For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.
5 Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep: in the morning they are like grass which groweth up.
6 In the morning it flourisheth, and groweth up; in the evening it is cut down, and withereth.
7 For we are consumed by thine anger, and by thy wrath are we troubled.
8 Thou hast set our iniquities before thee, our secret sins in the light of thy countenance.
9 For all our days are passed away in thy wrath: we spend our years as a tale that is told.
10 The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.
11 Who knoweth the power of thine anger? even according to thy fear, so is thy wrath.
12 So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.
13 Return, O Lord, how long? and let it repent thee concerning thy servants.
14 O satisfy us early with thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
15 Make us glad according to the days wherein thou hast afflicted us, and the years wherein we have seen evil.
16 Let thy work appear unto thy servants, and thy glory unto their children.
17 And let the beauty of the Lord our God be upon us: and establish thou the work of our hands upon us; yea, the work of our hands establish thou it.

Psalm 147 (KJV)
1 Praise ye the Lord: for it is good to sing praises unto our God; for it is pleasant; and praise is comely.
2 The Lord doth build up Jerusalem: he gathereth together the outcasts of Israel.
3 He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.
4 He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names.
5 Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite.
6 The Lord lifteth up the meek: he casteth the wicked down to the ground.
7 Sing unto the Lord with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God:
8 Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains.
9 He giveth to the beast his food, and to the young ravens which cry.
10 He delighteth not in the strength of the horse: he taketh not pleasure in the legs of a man.
11 The Lord taketh pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope in his mercy.
12 Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem; praise thy God, O Zion.
13 For he hath strengthened the bars of thy gates; he hath blessed thy children within thee.
14 He maketh peace in thy borders, and filleth thee with the finest of the wheat.
15 He sendeth forth his commandment upon earth: his word runneth very swiftly.
16 He giveth snow like wool: he scattereth the hoarfrost like ashes.
17 He casteth forth his ice like morsels: who can stand before his cold?
18 He sendeth out his word, and melteth them: he causeth his wind to blow, and the waters flow.
19 He sheweth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his judgments unto Israel.
20 He hath not dealt so with any nation: and as for his judgments, they have not known them. Praise ye the Lord.

Seek Nourishment ...

for your spirit as the days grow darker yet.

When the days are busy, loud, and not encouraging ... let go of this non-nutritional worldly life. There is nothing in this world that will feed your spirit, heart, soul or mind. Only time spent with the Creator of ALL THINGS will bring you love, comfort, healing, and give you nourishment to grow.

Look at each day Step-By-Step or else it will become overwhelming and discouraging. We are to lift our eyes to the hills where our help comes from. If you don't know how to simplify your life into what God wants it to be ... ASK HIM! If you are truly sincere in wanting to follow His Plan for your life, you have to ask and BE WILLING to do what you hear Him tell you. Don't be like the rich young man that wanted to enter the kingdom of Heaven, but upon learning he had to sell all and give to the poor, he turned back. He was NOT WILLING - his worldly treasures were his priorities -- to his thinking the cost was too high. [Matthew 19:16–30, Mark 10:17–31 and Luke 18:18–30].

Letting go of what your flesh wants, every day, while seeking God and His Will ... this is the only way to be content in this life. [Philippians 4:12]. We can fill our days up with so much, that in the end doesn't matter, that when we see a real need and higher purpose for our lives and time ... we get discouraged and think we just cannot do it. That is a lie from the pits of Hell. Satan would like nothing better than to steal your joy, rob you of your peace, and pour defeatism into you!

Don't give in to that! When you put on your armor, why are you told to take up the Shield of Faith??? -- To QUENCH the fiery darts of the wicked -- what are those things? Anything that attacks, tries to slip in under your guard, brings despair and despondency, obscures your vision so you cannot see anything but darkness surrounding you. SEE and HEAR the TRUTH: You have access to eyes to see, ears to hear, [Matthew 13:15-17].

Truly there is NOTHING in this WORLD that holds a candle to what God has planned for you for ETERNITY!

Pray For Father's Will To Be Done ...

If we do not do this, we will miss Father's Will.

Remember ... our thoughts and ways ARE NOT His Thoughts and Ways!!!

Go to Father and seek His Will. If you need more instruction on how to seek God ... time is short for you to learn so open your heart and ASK for Him to teach you!

ARE YOU LEAD BY YOUR EMOTIONS ...

OR ARE YOU LEAD BY GOD? DO YOU SAY POOR PITIFUL ME? OR DO YOU TAKE RESPONSIBILITY?

When life or people disappoint us, we have a responsibility to remain stable and continue with God's purpose for our lives.
Consider Psalm 94:12-13. Notice that it does not say that God keeps us calm. It says HE GIVES US POWER to keep ourselves calm. We are partners with God. DID YOU HEAR THAT??? His part is to give us ability and our part is to be responsible.
Let me scream that part...
OUR PART IS TO BE RESPONSIBLE!
Responsibility means 'to respond to the ability we have.' An irresponsible person wants God to do everything while he does nothing except follow his feelings. But don't let your feelings run the show. Declare out loud right now, "I have attended my last pity party." I can promise you: in the end you will feel much better about yourself if you take responsibility than if you avoid it.
God cares for you, but He won't do your part. He enables you to do it, but let me emphasize that He won't do it for you! HE WON'T DO IT FOR YOU PEOPLE! I dare you to stand firm, take responsibility and begin working with God to have the blessed life He's planned for you.
It says in Psalm 94:12-13...
"Blessed is the one you discipline, Lord, the one you teach from your law; you grant them relief from days of trouble, till a pit is dug for the wicked."
God, Your Word says that You've given me the ability to remain calm. I receive that today. I won't let my feelings run my life, and I will be responsible and respond the way You want me to.

Background for this Word of Wisdom:
'Had me an awesome 2:30am/can’t sleep talk with God study!! Sooo here ya go..." 
This was given to Shona Warren and she gave me permission to share this awesome Word. God's Word does not return to him void but accomplishes what He plans for it to do Isaiah 55:11. Thank you, Shona, for being obedient, for being humble, and for having listening ears and a loving heart for God!

In Humble Obedience,
Anna

Boldly Speaking What God Has Given

... I will follow my Master's leading. I will listen to no other, as I know HIS voice! I do not fear man or ridicule: I will continue to seek the Lord's counsel and strive to walk with Him, each step as He directs me, daily!

God has graciously supplied wisdom in what I am to share here: "our thoughts are not His thoughts, our ways are not His ways [Isaiah 55:8-9 KJV]" ... you should humbly ask Him for His wisdom and be prepared to 'put a hand over your mouth' when He replies [Job 40 KJV].

Can Salvation Be Lost (link)

 "We are not taking about salvation by works here, nor are we abusing the precious Grace of God. The devil has a plan to knock you and your salvation out. If you don’t watch yourself, you will fall into his trap. It is not by works you are saved, but you better be ready that you don’t go back to your old sinful ways. You can enter God’s Kingdom only through the narrow gate. The highway to hell is broad, and its gate is wide for the many who choose that way. But the gateway to life is very narrow and the road is difficult, and only a few ever find it. (Matt 7) Well who can get in????? “And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible” Mark 10, Matthew 19
Why did Paul bother to keep returning to people to get them back on the right path?
Why did the Lord end the bible with these warnings: Wake up! Come back to you first Love! Turn from your indifference! You tolerate wrong teaching! Repent!"

If we are always saved, once saved, what’s the point of the bible’s warnings?

The following is a prayer from the link above. I will pray it as I am called as an intercessor/prayer warrior. You can pray it as well, God inhabits the Praises of His People. Our Prayers are a Sweet Fragrance in Heaven:

Dear Lord,
I pray for those suffering through this, may you restore them Lord. Break the binds that have held them down, release the captives and set them free. Protect them from all evil and give them wisdom and understanding. Give them a new heart and renew a right spirit within them. Give them a desire to seek you and love you above all things. Release the prisoners and those who are about to perish. Restore the lost and help us gather them back in. Save us, restore our sight so we can see. Make the path ahead plain for us and bring those who have fallen away -back into your everlasting arms. In Jesus name, we pray, Amen

The Lord has provided the information here. I strongly recommend that you click on the link and see what God tells you. Yes, He DOES still speak today! To those who sit and wait on Him ... He gives Wisdom liberally when we ask!

MAJESTY ...

I will speak of the glorious honour of thy majesty, and of thy wondrous works. Psalm 145:5

Majesty w/lyrics Michael W Smith

This is the Most Important Question you will ever be asked: Are you SAVED?
If the answer is 'No' please rethink your decision to keep rejecting Jesus sacrifice for you!
If the answer is 'Yes' do you have a RELATIONSHIP with God? Do you yearn for a deeper walk, drawing closer to know the hearts of Father, Son & Holy Spirit?

This world is not our home, we are just passing through ...
1 John 2:15-17
15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.

There is nothing new under the sun ...
Ecclesiastes 1:9 The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.

Seek God's Will and Perfect Plan for your life ...
Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

The days grow darker. The promise of Jesus' soon return in the clouds to catch away His Bride draws ever closer. Are you ready? Are you willing? Are you excited? Let us be about our Father's business and walk closer to Him each and every day!!!

What is a Major Difference ...

between the first church and the end times church? Holy Spirit wants you to know and remember that God is still the same yesterday, today and tomorrow! 
I have heard many times, from many sources, that the miracles, signs and wonders the apostles did in the first church are not relevant today because we now have the Bible - God's written word - as proof of His existence.

God does not change and His Word will go forth and accomplish that for which He sent it.

Isaiah 55:11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.

The following is from the website link provided below and Holy Spirit is strongly impressing upon my spirit that He is totally in DISAGREEMENT with the information in this article:

https://www.gotquestions.org/miraculous-gifts.html

Quote "God miraculously heals people every day. God still does amazing miracles, signs, and wonders and sometimes performs those miracles through a Christian. However, these things are not necessarily the miraculous gifts of the Spirit. THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE LIE: The primary purpose of the miraculous gifts was to prove that the gospel was true and that the apostles were truly God’s messengers. The Bible does not say outright that the miraculous gifts have ceased, but it does lay the foundation for why they might no longer occur to the same extent as they did as recorded in the New Testament." End Quote

You are free to believe what you want to believe ... God did give us free will after all. John 7:17 (kjv) However, I am to let you know that denying the power of God and the Gifts of the Spirit is like having a super vehicle ... but not believing that it needs fuel to go anywhere. I don't ask you to take my word ... I ask you to Sit At God's Feet ... Holy Spirit will teach you what man cannot!!!

I am called to tell you the Truth. I do not write these posts - Holy Spirit is writing this. I am obedient to Him and I will not have your blood on my hands by not sharing what He is saying! Without the power of the Holy Spirit - that Jesus commanded believers to wait for -- Jesus sent the Comforter -- we are anemic and ineffectual Christians.

Why would anyone think or believe that the early church would be so much more powerful than the church of the end times? Don't worry, if you don't believe -- you won't receive. God won't make you believe His Truth ... but I pray that you will want to learn it to truly live a victorious Christian life!

1 Corinthians 12 kjv

Time is short! If you disagree with this teaching, please ask Holy Spirit ... He gives wisdom when we ask Him!

40 Months in the Wilderness ...

being taught by Holy Spirit to TRUST IN and RELY ON God and His provision: since January 2014.

TRUST IN "Trust is a feeling that somebody can be relied upon, or will turn out to be good. It is the feeling of being sure about someone, even if it cannot be proved."

RELY ON "Rely is even more powerful a word than 'depend.' When you rely on someone, you have total faith and trust that He will come through. It comes from the Latin word religare which means "to fasten or bind."

This blog post is my testimony on the Wilderness Journey that God determined for me. I had to say yes to His Will & His Way. He walked beside me on this chosen path and taught me through each step and each trial. He allowed me to learn so many things. To encapsulate 3+ years of training, growing closer in my walk, deepening our relationship, and growing in FAITH ... that is a tall order. Instead, I invite you to ask God what He has planned for you. Ask Him to set your feet upon the path that He has designed specifically for you: His Perfect Will for your life.

At the end of this wilderness, I can honestly say material things don't mean much to me. I want people to see Jesus -- not me -- when they are around me. A job now is for God to be glorified and for me to continue to be a servant following my Master & Savior. It is not my identity, as it was for so many years of employment.

This isn't the end ... I look forward to learning even more ... but after 40 months ... I will again have 'permanent employment with benefits!' Thank you Father, Son and Holy Spirit for everything!

Philippians 4:11-12 (KJV)

11 Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.

12 I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.

Holy, Holy, Holy ...

There is no more time ... His Children could be taken in the next breath.

The Lord has placed a heavy burden on my heart ... please, all of you, listen and listen well!  I plead with each of you to be sure that your heart is ready. That your salvation is secure. That you walk with God each moment of the day! Don't trust in your works, they are as filthy rags, but trust instead in His Mercy and renewing of the Holy Spirit! Titus 3:5-6

I don't care how often you have heard it ... Truth is Truth and He is letting us know of His plans. Please be ready each moment! Grab hold and don't take your eyes off of Him! Where is your treasure? In this world and its money? Ezekiel 7:19

Joel 2

Holy Spirit

Titus 3:5,6 

5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;

6 Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour;

Money

Ezekiel 7:19 They shall cast their silver in the streets, and their gold shall be removed: their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the Lord: they shall not satisfy their souls, neither fill their bowels: because it is the stumbling block of their iniquity.

Holy, Holy, Holy

My heart sings out to you

Holy, Holy, Holy

Each breath sends praises true

For Your Name Is Holy - I Enter The Holy of Holies - Paul Wilbur - Lyrics

In His Service,

Anna

Do you feel the urgency?!

So many watchmen are giving warnings so that others can hear and not be left behind. There is also an outpouring of His Spirit ...

Eden, 6 yrs old, interpreting a Word of Tongues

Mark 10:15 Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein.

Matthew 18:2-4
2 And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them,
3 And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
4 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

In these final moments, for truly Jesus could come for us at any second, are you saved, secure, doing the work of the Father, sharing His Love? Are you walking with Jesus, in The Spirit, totally sold out to God? Where are your treasures ... if they are in this world - you need to repent before God. For where your treasure is, there your heart is also!

I caution you not to make light of the Holy Spirit nor those on the front lines of this War for Souls. Truly, you do not know their walk with God, what He has called them to do, what they do in their prayer closets! Now is the time to lift up in prayer and stand in the gap - side by side - with those God has asked to love and obey Him. Not in man's ways .. but walking each step in the path Jesus shows to each of His Children.

Will You Pass

I do pray for hearts to be touched with the Saving Grace of God and acceptance of Jesus' sacrifice before the door is forever closed!
Anna

Stay Focused ...

and remain in the Father's will for you! Please remember, to live victoriously ... never give up!              

No matter how my life is going - some days good / some days bad - I find that if I stop a moment, think on positive things, my attitude will improve. Yesterday was one of those days - but I didn't stop - I don't think I even slowed down in my thought process. Instead, I just kept flowing and wallowing in the 'river of despondency' which, trust me on this, has a distinct odor! It isn't pleasing - to me, to others, and especially not to the Lord!

What am I doing differently today? I am looking for the positives and not focusing on the negatives. If a thought comes along that could bring me down - I refuse to dwell on it. Instead, I give it to God and ask for a replacement thought  - from Him! I want to walk the path He has for me and the JOY of the LORD is my strength! I ask Holy Spirit to bring scriptures to my mind that will firm up my foundation with The Word. So many come to mind at that point. You know, I don't have very many scriptures memorized, but I am glad Holy Spirit gives them to me. So here is a paraphrased list of what I have heard in my spirit today:

• I obediently put on the full armor of God - this morning and every morning
• I will stand therefore - in the Lord and the Power of His Might
• I prayed a hedge of protection - asking Father to protect
• No weapon formed against me will prosper
• I will DELIGHT in the Lord and TRUST in Him 
• I will not allow myself to grow weary - but ask God to renew my heart daily

This is an ongoing conversation, so yes there are others and there will be others as the day progresses. One of the things I have been taught - and am still learning - is to be consistent in my walk and in my prayer life. Am I successful in this every day? Sadly, no, but I won't stay there. I won't stay down. I raise my hand and ask God to take hold of me and please pull me up!
If you find yourself down today. Despondent. Fearful. Speaking Words of death more than Words of LIFE ... I encourage you to turn to the author and finisher of our Faith! His everlasting love will bring the sunshine into an otherwise gloomy day! He promised never to leave us or forsake us! God is not a liar!!!

Philippians 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Trust in the Lord always,
Anna
