The Temple Of God

God Almighty, who choose you out of the corridors of eternity, called you out of darkness into his marvellous light, wrapped you in the cord of humanity(your body) with the core being your spirit/soul, sanctified you through his precious blood, so you can be holy and acceptable, so he may dwel inside you. 

Ladies your body is the temple of God! Lets back track a bit. Go back to the basics. What is a temple? A temple is defined as a structure reserved for religious or spiritual activities, such as prayer and sacrifice, or analogous rites. Therefore, your body is meant to be a living sacrifice on to the Lord! Ladies, your purpose here on earth is to be true worshippers who glorify Aba Father in spirit and in truth not to twerk and drop it like its hot for a dude who has not bought you with a price. God himself has decided to dwell inside your body. If you are saved, treat your body like the temple it is. Put away all members that do not glorify God through the renewing of your mind. 




Specifically I would like to tackle the issue of Pre material- Sex. 1Corinthians 6:18 says sex is a sin not only against God but against yourself! What is the implication of committing sin against yourself? Well James 1 talks about how when sin is conceived it leads to death.  Every time you attach yourself to someone new, you are creating a soul tie (Look at Soul Ties by Zemi). This is because the two become one flesh. However, when you decided to be born again, you decided to be an heirs with christ. You also chose to be a member of the bride church who is awaiting the return of our groom, the Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, we are one with the Lord. 

You are worth more then a dime piece. You have been bought with a price! Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit which are Gods! 


Songs 8:4 I charge you, O daughter of jerusalem, Do not Stir up nor awaken love Until pleases. The time will come when you can enjoy sex as part of a blessing of your godly marriage ! 




Love Your Sister

Dry Season - Dry Bones 

What is a Dry Season?

It is a season of Lack, a season when everything that could be wrong goes wrong. It’s a season when the promise God has over your life seems impossible. Within your Dry Season you find yourself in a valley unable to pick YOURSELF back up! 

How did I end up in a Dry Season?
Contrary to popular belief, Dry Seasons are not always caused by the devil. Sometimes God brings you to a dry place for you to activate your faith in him -(Hosea 2:14)" Therefore, behold. I will allure her, Will bring her into the wilderness, And speak comfort to her". Don't get it twisted though, James 1 tells us that God cannot be tempted therefore he cannot tempt you. In other words, God would not bring a situation into your life for you to be temped and stumble; that’s the devil. Remember Ladies, God is a good God, he may allow things to happen, for example Job, but he would never bring bad things upon you, for example cancer. (Matthew 4:1) says " Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil". Yes, Kingdom Women, The Spirit led Jesus into the wilderness! But it was the devil that tempted him!

Also, Ezekiel found himself in a Dry Season led by the Holy Spirit! The Bible says in(Ezekial 37:1) "The hand of the Lord came upon me and brought me out in the Spirit of the Lord, and set me down in the midst of the valley; and it was full of bones.”

 Dry seasons come into our life for a season
 Ladies seasons come and go. Depending on your circumstance, the duration your season will vary. For example, here in Canada, winter lasts for what seems to be forever! lol Jesus does not promise us that we will not face tribulation. In fact, because you are the light in this dark world attention BETTER be on you! Demons better know your name because you’re a warrior for Christ who casts down strongholds that are not of God! Isaiah 43:2 tells us: "when you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze" Jesus said lets go to the other side of the river ladies. Within this journey you will be faced with wild storms! But don't focus on the storm keep your eyes on Jesus. 

Notice how in verse 1 Ezekiel was taken into his dry season but knew who he was in Christ (God)?  He told us sisters the Lord took me here and then caused me to pass by them all! Did the Lord not say He will never leave you or forsake you? If the answer is yes, why then are you anxious?



How to face your Dry Seasons 

Alright! Back to our brother Ezekiel! Ezekeil 37:2 says Then he caused me to pass by them all around, and BEHOLD there were very many in the open valley; and indeed they where dry”.

Notice how Ezekiel saw with his physical eyes that INDEED THEY WHERE DRY. I am not saying that what you’re facing is not real and should be ignored. However, our spiritual eyes and mouth should have the last say!

Some of us start to disbelieve the rhema word of God! How do you disbelieve? We disbelieve when we become anxious, when we are worried and are not at rest. Yet, the bible tells us clearly: do not be anxious for anything. Because we are letting our natural eyes have the last say - indeed they were dry - we start to function in the flesh causing us not to hear what the Holy Spirit has to say to us in verse 3! Listen let the truth be told, God is a Spirit and can only connect with you in Spirit and in truth therefore remain ALERT, AWAKE AND AWARE of his Presence! 

Ezekeil 37:3 " And he said to me "Son of man, can these bones live? So I answered, " O Lord GOD, You know". Our faith is based on what we believe and speak forth. Sometimes within your dry season, when the Lord asks you "Shamiso Daughter of Zion, can these dry bones live? - In your mind you know the flesh has completely come off the bones! Now how many years would that have taken for it to be only bones? Ladies I am speaking to that dream God spoke over your life that seems to have died for many years. I am talking about your hope to find a Godly husband that seems to have died. The hopes of getting into medical school or Law school that seems to have died! You look at your age or grades or the doctors report and naturally it does not look pretty! Or not only is your account empty, you are in the negatives and owing! 




The key thing is to watch what you say! I always say Rhema over facts, in other words, the unchangeable, unbeatable, utterance of God over physical facts. If you can have an illness today and a week later be healed through antibiotics, what more the word of God who says you’re healed through his blood. Yes, you are sick, it’s a fact but anything seen is subject to change. Moreover, The Alpha and The Omega, the beginning and the end, The God who is in eternity and can step into time on your behalf is the same yesterday, today and forever

Ezekiel clearly saw he was broke! He clearly saw he could not pay his tuition but he depended on the God who puts the super in your natural! Sometimes the best answer you can give or the best thing you can speak with your mouth is the word of God. Listen Ladies, our minds are limited to understand the supernatural. But what I know is that what God says I am is my identity, even when I don't completely understand what he means. Look at Mary, when the angel came to her and said all these unbelievable things about her carrying a child when she had never had sex, she asked the angel how it would happen, then the angel explained. The key is what Mary said " I am the Lord's servant. Let everything you've said happen to me." - (Luke 19: 28-44) In other words, I have no clue what you just said but its all good, let how you have explained it be the way it will happen. 

This is a prophetic season Ladies! The Bible says life and death is in the power of the tongue, Speak LIFE! There are angels and demons around you waiting for you to speak either life or death. Both sides will say amen let it be true when you are done speaking! In other words anytime you say, I am so broke girl! Demons say AMEN! OR your bank account could be empty and say yet you God will supply all my needs girl! Angels understand that those words have the Fathers anointing and are ready to take charge over you! 

The Lord said to Ezekiel "Prophesy to these bones, and say to them 'O dry bones, hear the word of the LORD'! *chills*  

My Sisters, it’s true your "bones are dry, your hope is lost" - (Ezekiel 37:11) but don't lose your confidence in God, stand on his word and he will back you up! God is a restoring God! He wants to awaken all your dreams and restore them back to life! Lord knows He is going to awaken my bank account and pay for my education! 


The Hebrew word for prophecy is naba, which can also mean to flow forth! Ladies you have a divine inheritance! All we have to do is to ask and RECEIVE! Ask him for your inheritance which you are entitled to through the blood of Jesus! Speak and prophesy! 

 The Lord is saying: Do not remember the former things,Nor consider the things of old.BEHOLD, I am doing a new thing!    Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?I will even make a road in the wildernessAnd rivers in the desert!

(He is the same God! If he did it before he will do it again)

Kingdom Woman of God, there is a river inside of you waiting to be realized! Prophesy and the Lord will restore!  

 Last words, when you activate your faith and abide in Him and Him in you, and speak the rhema, rivers will spring forth. When rivers emerge, geography changes, and landscapes alter! Ladies God, will bring something new you, something you never expected! Just hold on!


I will be testifying real soon about God being My Jehovah Jireh - My Provider

Real Love - Rant                                                  

 


Reading a Book,

A Boy and a girl,

You're typical long lost lovers,

Separated by Life and Brought together once again

Through fate ? Coincidence ?

Who cares 

I feel an uneasiness about this question 

Is this something I long for ?

That romance of being swept off my feet?

Eyes Fixed on me?

Readin me ?

unravelling my heart?

Delicately caressing my soul?

With all this magic I still feel uneasy

Unsettled to model this imaginative experience in my mind and find it somehow satifying...

At a moment of which cannot be snapped or recorded I realize 

To an extent this magic, This feeling of floating on clouds, time passing by is something I want buts its through LOVE I find it 

It's really LOVE I want 

But no not this simulated love, composed in a literary peice but REAL love 

And so I stop and think 

If the truth says God is Love 

Then what Im really yearning for is God 

WHat I really want is the romance of a Father who sent his only begotten son to die for my imperfection 

Now that is MAGIC

that is LOVE

and its that REAL 

AUTHENTIC

ORGANIC
 
UNBEATABLE 

LOVE that I thirst for 

Not some conditional love proposed by man is disguised as love but merely lust

Its real AGAPE love 

That unfailing love that settles in my heart and keeps me at ease


Yours Truly,

- Tinashe Muzorewa

Song: Leah Smith - Beautifully Made

So I completed the "No Makeup Challenge" and learned so much about myself. I now feel fully confident that my beauty is in Christ. My personality and character speak for themselves...those are the things that linger when I leave a room. The impression I leave on someone's heart is far more important than the fleeting image I leave in their brain. 

All week I felt pressed in my heart to sing this to myself whenever my confidence wavered: "I am fearfully and wonderfully made..." (Psalm 139:14) and guess what? There's a song for that! Enjoy and be blessed my sisters.

Got Soul Ties?

Find yourself giving your all in relationships? Are you a woman who loves too much? Have you been the best you can be yet find yourself in the same situation again? Have you found yourself in the spin cycle repeating the same patterns over and over and over again: dumped, manipulated, used, abandoned...alone. My dear, you may have a soul tie.

What is a soul tie? Quentin McCall describes it as, "two souls tied together by the spirit mainly caused by sex and sexual abuse". His blog post, "3 Things You Need to Know About Soul Ties" provides more information. 

This blog won't be spent going on and on about soul ties and how you can break them. Soul ties was one of my struggles and so I'll point you to all of the resources that helped me...because now I am free, redeemed and whole.

Joyce Meyer - The Healing Word


Scroll down to the "Free Downloads" section of this page on Joyce Meyer's website. Look up for yourself and write down the scriptures she provides in "Spiritual Healing Scriptures" and "Emotional/Mental Healing Scriptures". Meditate on them...it really works. 

Spoken Word - Soul Ties



Other Tips
  1. Stay in the Word. Learn about the promises God has for your life. Find your identity in Christ.
  2. Whenever you think of him or her...pray for him/her. Anytime I missed my ex I prayed for him. Any time I was mad at him, I prayed for him. Any time I thought of the broken promises, empty words and lost time...I prayed...that he would become a true godly man, free of all that separated him from God - because he too deserves to be whole. I prayed that what he did to me did not happen to him and that he would be blessed and forgiven...given prosperity and a bright future despite how I felt he did me wrong.
  3. Rebuke toxic thoughts. I wrote a biblical response for every thought that came to me in my journal. e.g. "I miss him. I want him back. I miss being held. I was so happy." --> "Do not arouse or awaken love before it so desires." (Songs 2:7)
  4. Do your part. You have to delete the pictures and the text messages. You can't expect God to do a work in you in the spiritual when you aren't doing anything in the natural. I don't listen to songs that remind me of my ex, I deleted our pictures together on Instagram. I deleted pictures we had together...and their duplicates. I even had to delete him from Skype because seeing him popup would make my heart race and just wasn't doing me any good.
  5. Remember that it's God's job to work on his/her heart. Talking to him, nagging him, having sex with him, sending him money, etc...will NOT and never will change him. Let go and let God do all of that.
  6. Forget. Forget what he did. Forget what he said. And if you can't do that...hold on to Romans 8: 28 for dear life: "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are called according to his purpose." Do you love God? Are you walking in God's purpose? Are you living for Him? If so, this promise is for you.
Remember, 
  • What God has for YOU cannot be taken away from YOU! - Heather Lindsey
  • You can't miss what God has for you. "Your" man cannot get away. - Michelle McKinney Hammond
Walk in love. Don't wait for this guy to come back. Don't sit around wondering why this happened to you...again! (Sidenote: When I asked God that question in my own life He said, "You did not love me with your whole heart.") Use your period of singleness to work on yourself and have God work on you. The Holy Spirit is longing to come in and FIX you, but you have to allow Him. Allow Him. I really hope this sparks a change in you...I'm only 3 months in from realizing I had soul ties, finding the root causes and breaking them! God is able!

All my love,

Zemi; KingdomWomen

Song: Jekalyn Carr - Greater Is Coming

You are not too young, too beautiful, too fashionable, too popular, etc to be used by God. One of the Devil's lies is that you can't be beautiful and serve the Lord with your life. You can! Inside and out! You can be young and serve the Lord. No age is too young or too old. Give God your whole self. Give Him your today. This little girl is all of 13 years old and she is being used...to speak into your life.


Love always,

September 2013 School Start Fast

Hello Ladies,

This week Kingdom Women is fasting. We initially wanted to dedicate the week to pressing into God in hopes He would reveal our purpose and direct, shelter, provide and be with us throughout the upcoming school year. But, as time drew closer, we felt the purpose should instead be to grow in our relationship with God by developing an intimate relationship with Jesus, our Savior. Just that...we won't ask for anything, we won't petition God, we won't just praise...we will learn, from Him, how to love Him better. We will study His word to learn His ways. This relationship shall be the most important aspect of our daily lives.

Set aside these next few days. Deny yourself food and sweetened drinks from 5:00 am to 5:00 pm and pray earnestly throughout your day. Communicate with Jesus, as a friend...a best friend. Make this relationship your Number 1 priority. Make Him you're EVERYTHING.

RELATIONSHIP > PRAISE > PETITION

Our focus verse for the September fast is John chapter 15, verse 15: 
"No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things I heard from My Father I have made known to you."  
Join us; #KingdomWomen

Kingdom Women September Fast Guidelines

  1. Purpose: to develop and enrich our relationship with God by making Jesus, our gateway to the Father, our best friend. 
  2. Duration: September 1 - September 7
  3. Method: Drink only water from 5:00 am - 5:00 pm each day.
  4. Avoid distractions and negative influences. We find that when we fast our spirit becomes more sensitive so a few of us have decided to avoid social media this week as we focus on God.
  5. Feed your spirit. Listen to sermons with a strong biblical base, play worship music throughout your day & make a concerted effort to read and meditate on the Word.
  6. Journal your thoughts. After your prayers and time of worship you should write down what comes to you. Often God speaks to us that way.
  7. Read one (or more) of the gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke & John) to learn about how Jesus lived, what He said, how He acted and how He lived. 
  8. Treat Jesus like a boy friend: spend time with him, talk to him about things going on in your life, get to know him, find out about what people say about him (in Bible), think about him throughout the day, get dressed with him in mind, take him out on dates, etc...just run with it. God, who sees what you do in private, shall reward you. [Don't cheat on him with randoms. cc Heather Lindsey]
  9. Missed the week? Even if just for a day, fasting is a great way to enrich your faith. Deny yourself something (food, tv, social media, Scandal, make up, etc) for a certain period or time and dedicate that time to God. It's amazing what He says to us when we just take time to listen...no distractions.
  10. Email kingdomwomenlife@gmail.com if you have any additional questions.
"It's not about perfection; it's about pursuing God with our whole heart."
