Be Still and Know that I am your God

This year was supposed to be a year to encounter God. I was expecting to have a 'burning bush experience'. I thought to myself, "I just need one touch and my destiny will change". For every movement there is a mover. Nothing just happens. God can appear to us but it is up until we turn ourself towards him and walk towards the flame that he will begin to speak. Moose was going one direction and noticed the bush with flames but not burning. God did not speak until Moose turn towards the bush and thats when God said "Moose take of your slippers for this is holy grounds'. 

I had been searching for God. But I felt I was not growing anymore. For me, a month of no change is a long time. I also started feeling pressure from people around me. I started feeling mocked and ridiculed. You know those moments when people want to challenge your faith. Whatever there intentions may have been I really felt extremely challenged. Along with that God was not speaking to me! Here I am, spending an hour a day in 'worship' and 'prayer' (honestly my worship and prayer was so lethargic and my heart was not involved) and God is not speaking. Not only that but I am spreading the good news about a God who is, at the moment ignoring me! Don't get me started on giving! I give my time and money to the point I don't have money to pay my phone bill let alone do anything else of pleasure (God corrected me on giving this Sunday).  

I went to see my Pastor/Prophet for direction. I thought this is the day that the Lord has made ! Whew finally today I am gonna get a word from God to motivate me! I went through accidents, travelled almost an hour 20 ! Only to be given 7:30 mins of the Man of Gods time. Seriously?! I could not even ask all my questions. I was so shocked. He told me to read a Psalm and to fast and "increase the temperature of your prayer". He also told me that my attacks are not because I am weak but because I am strong. At the time last week Thursday, I could not really receive it. I was so annoyed ! I went home and I complained to my sisters and Chenai ! anyone who wanted to listen to me complain. I really felt God had other bigger issues with all his other children facing "real problems", all I wanted is his attention!

 I thought to myself I cant complain to God then I would be like the children of Israel in the wilderness! Its funny how the very thing you think you are not doing is what you are actually doing. Instead of going to God and being honest with him I was going to other people and complaining. I thought I don't want to offend God so its better I "worship and pray for others". Only thing is that I was not broken in the presence of God. I lacked honesty. 

Yesterday I decided to be Honest with God. I told him how I felt ! 

God You say You are the same God today, yesterday and forever right? Does your word not say that when You called the children of Israel to be your people, and the Israelites to call You God, you made a difference between the Egyptians and the children of Israel? Why then is my life no different from those that do not worship you? Why do I have the same problem as those that are yet to love You or have turned their backs on You? Your word says we overcome by the blood of the lamb and the word of our testimony. I have the Blood but where is the power in the blood to give me a testimony? Why should I tell anyone to follow you when I am only giving lip service ? There is nothing to show the manifested power of Your Love except the fruit of the Spirit that I am beginning to bear. Lord your word says that the kingdom of God is not in word but in power. I need the power the shifts and moves situations around. I need a reason to testify of your goodness for your name sake!

For an hour I praise him cried and had a broken spirit and contrite heart. I worshiped Him in spirit and in truth of the mess I felt inside. I was a broken alabaster jar at the feet of my maker. I sit there after an hour of me speaking and crying and I heard Him speak !

Be still, and know that I am God

I will be exalted among the nations,I will be exalted in the earth!The Lord of hosts is with meThe God of Jacob is my refuge. 

Hold on Sisters, press in to His presence He will shift!
Love you,

Seek Him First

I remember when I was a young believe, both in age and spiritually, I was so concerned with the things of the world. Although I have my moments still to this day, I understand the principle of seeking God first. Last week I went to Miracle Arena for All Nations, in Toronto Canada, check it out if you can. For the first time in my life I saw miracles unfold! Two women who had not walked for a long time started walking! Prophecies happened and I saw how the spiritual realm functions.  

Since that day, I need more of God! I can no longer live my Christian life with no power from God. Jesus told us that we are to do greater miracles then he did when he was on earth. In fact, I and a lot of us have failed at being christians because we have failed at the commission God sent us to do which is, preach the gospel (we do this really well), heal the sick and cast out demons. I need a touch from God, I can no longer walk in defeat, knowing and understanding that greater is the one who is within me then the one who is in the world. 

This year is a year to seek Gods face, understand who he is, have an encounter with him such as the one Moose had in the burning bush. Just one encounter will change my life! I know that for a fact. What I have come to understand is that what we find to be important is what we give time to. Each day I have dedicated an hour of prayer, mostly speaking in tongues, to God. Have I been on the dot? No I have not, however, we train ourself like athletes until we are able to withstand through his grace. 

If God be God. If God be still on the thrown on righteousness, holiness and peace, then his word has to stand. Therefore, if I seek him he must fulfil the word he has spoken, it can not return to him void.

Deliverance from the Sprit of Lust

Read and confess that you are set free in the Name of Jesus!

Father,

I come boldly before Your throne of grace and mercy to find help and strength my time of need.  Lord Your word says to watch and pray so that we will not enter into temptation, for we know that the spirit is willing, but Father my flesh is weak.

Lord, I submit myself to You, for Your word says that if we submit ourselves unto You, that we could resist the enemy and he would flee from us.  Lord I am fully submitted to You, all that I am, all that I ever hope to be.  I surrender unto You. 

Father, I am weak but thou art strong, I know in my weakness You are made strong.  I know that my strength is not in my will to withstand the devil and his many temptations, but my faith, my strength, my hope is in You.  Therefore, Lord I confess that I am strong in You, and in the power of Your might.

Father, in the name of Jesus, I cast down every wicked, lustful, lascivious, and unclean thought of the enemy in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth.  I refuse to allow any thoughts of the enemy to enter in; I dismiss them from me in the name of Jesus.  Father, I pray that You will cause me to think upon those things which are pure, honest, and of a good report, and I pray that You will not allow my mind to wander into idleness, but to stay upon the name of Jesus.

Father, I thank You for revealing the evil lustful spirit that was trying to confuse me.  I thank You for not allowing me to be drawn away by his words of flattery, his lustful eyes, or his gifts of deceit.  I thank You for not allowing me to be overcome with lust in my eyes, for I know the eyes are the door to the heart, and Your words says to guard my heart with all diligence.  So Father, please help me to guard my heart by the words that I speak.

Father, I pray that You will place upon me the whole amour of God, so that I will always be able to stand against the tricks of the enemy.  I pray that You will lead and deliver me from every temptation of lust, sin, and evil. 

In the name of Jesus, I take authority over Satan, every principality, every evil spirit, and every spirit of wickedness in high places.  I bind them up in the name of Jesus Christ and render them helpless from operating in my life.  In the name of Jesus I bind and cast off ever spirit of lust, adultery, fornication, lasciviousness, and uncleanliness in my life. Father, I surrender my body to you as a living sacrifice, and I recognize that my body is the temple of the Almighty Living God and a dwelling place for His Holy Spirit and I rejoice in knowing that the blood of Jesus Christ covers me. 

Satan, in the name of Jesus, every stronghold, You have tried to bring against me has been rendered helpless, powerless and ineffective to operate in my life, by the authority of Jesus Christ! I put off all forms of lust and put on the new nature of righteousness, purity, and honesty. Jesus has defeated satan in my life, and now you are under my feet, and your power of lust and sin is broken in my life. 

Father, I thank You for hearing my prayer, and delivering me from the tricks of the enemy.  I thank You for Your word and how it is established in my heart and in my life.  I thank You for giving me power over the enemy, I thank You for strengthening me so that I will not defile my body, and that it will be a temple for the Holy Spirit.  Thank You Lord, for restoring me, for cleansing me, and for forgiving me for my weakness.  I praise You; I give You all the glory and say Hallelujah to the name of Jesus.

In Jesus name Amen
