The Infallible Word of God

The word of God is the only infallible rule to any situation, any word you receive any dream you have any symbolic reference.  Only the word of God is true and absolute.  So always refer to the Word of God for your final answer.  Seek the wisdom of God and do not be afraid to use God’s word as the foundation to receiving what is being spoken to you and over you.  From the words of a very powerful vessel of God, Apostle Helen Saddler, “know the Word of God for yourself,” so that you will receive from God and not be deceived by the enemy through words that come to tickle your ears with what you want to hear. (2 Timothy 4:3)  God loves us with an everlasting love and he will encourage, correct, instruct, direct, teach and train us through his word.  Just as a parent gives into the process of developing their child, not everything is what that child wants to hear and every instruction is not what they want to do; but not everything given to the developing of the child is negative and harsh.  God is a God of love, balance and order and discernment is important.
 Father God mature and sharpen the discernment of your people that they will not be drawn away by any wind of doctrine and that they may be able to rightly divide the word of truth and know the voice of the stranger.  (John 10:5, Ephesians 4:14, 2 Timothy 2:15) I pray they will not reject sound doctrine and run from place to place to have someone prophecy over them but they will run to you in prayer, reading and studying of your word and worship and when you do release prophecy to them they will be able filter it through your word.  (2 Timothy 4:3) Let not one be deceived into believing the lie of the enemy; protect and cover your people, expand their capacity to receive the truth and develop those you have placed in positions of leadership, authority and influence in the body of Christ and in the seven Mountains –Arts & Entertainment, Religion, Government, Business, Education, Family and Media; that you have now given back to us to rule. (2 Corinthians 10:15)  Give them wisdom to deliver your word with love and compassion just as you did when you walked the earth leaving the model of how to operate in the earth as they effectively operate in the area given them.
 We are in the world and must conduct ourselves as honorable vessels but we are not governed by the world and its patterns, systems and structure of operation. (John 17:16, 1 Corinthians 7:31) Our blue print is the word of God and his teachings.  Jesus Christ came into the earth to lead the way, show us the way and became the only way when he laid his life down for all mankind.  Therefore we must represent him well as we successfully accomplish each assignment given to us.  May the words of our mouth and the meditation of our hearts be acceptable in his sight. (Psalm 19:14) Then will the creator of heaven and earth the True Witness, The one whose eyes are bright like flames of fire, who feet are like polished bronze, The one who has a sharp two-edged sword in his mouth, the one who has the key of David to open doors and close doors, The Amen, the Ruler of God’s creation, The one who is the First the Last who died and is alive; will see you and give you favor with power that out-weighs any amount of money. (Revelation 2:1, 2:8, 2:12, 2:18, 3:7, 3:14) The body must represent God and reclaim its position as we proclaim through living a life of true worship, establishing the standard in our sphere of influence, and demonstrating his love.  Then will (Isaiah 52:10) be fulfilled “The Lord will demonstrate his holy power before the eyes of all the nations.  The ends of the earth will see the salvation of our God.” 
When we present the word of God as the absolute and infallible authority by first knowing the word for ourselves so that it is securely hidden in our heart, we will live a life that exemplifies Christ. 
May the revelation of Christ unfold as you study his word, seek his face and worship at his feet.  He desires to unveil himself to his people we just need to ask him.  We will then be able to speak life to those who do not know Christ by revelation, opening them up to the love and saving knowledge of Christ. Revelation through Gods word exposes any darkness (Psalm 18:28, Isa 42:16), it helps you to see in you where change is needed (Proverbs 20:27, Job 29:3), it allows you into Gods mind ( Psalms 92:5) and opens your eyes to see clearly (Psalm 19:8, Luke 10:23, Acts 9:18), instructs you (Psalm 16:7), ultimately it helps you to see into the depth of God’s love for us (Ephesians 3:18) which is why he died for us because he loved us so much that he gave his Only son that we might be saved  Hallelujah!!!
 Studying the word, reading the word, worshiping, praying and sharing the gospel are all important and necessary parts of a journey in Christ that leaves you totally fulfilled, lacking nothing, wanting nothing, needing nothing.
Glory to God.

God's Grace is always present in the place of healing.

2 Corinthians 12:9a But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." …..


When you give those broken pieces of your heart to God, rest in the fact that he will give you the grace needed for the healing process.

One Sunday during praise and worship God showed me a heart, that was a brilliant crystal clear blue color and about ¾’s of it was covered with a hard shell, which was a dark- grayish color.  Later that night, I wondered about what I saw and what it meant.  I asked God and he showed me that I had only given him a very small piece of my heart and that he wanted it all.  He showed me that darker area had been calloused over and hardened by pain and un-forgiveness.  He showed me that it had been shattered and pieces of my heart had been left with the people who had hurt me.  My failed marriage received a piece, my natural father who disowned me received a piece, being taken away from my Grandparents at  13 when they were the only ones I believed that truly loved me received a piece, every rejection by someone I believed loved me received a piece, aborting my baby received a piece.  Every event in my life that left a painful memory and a wake of un-forgiven people all had pieces of my heart.   I too had a firm grip on part of my own heart because of so many bad choices I did not feel that I deserved to forgive myself.  This caused a whirl wind of self destruction and constant sabotaging of the good things that came my way. 

God then told me to reclaim every piece I had given away or left behind, forgive and release the people including myself.  Painfully I did this then I presented all the pieces to him.  I prayed through my tears Father here are the broken pieces of my heart.  It’s clearly in a lot of pieces and I believe that if you told me to bring it to you all broken and messed up like this that you are going to fix it.  The only way it can be fixed is if you fix it, only you know how to make it whole and complete again.  I can not see how this is possible but I am going to just trust you, it’s all I can do. 

When old memories tried to rush into my thought.  I would just begin to repeat I trust you God, even when I didn’t feel it I just said it, and cried it, and spoke it in silence, screamed it when I was alone and could feel the pressure of things trying to reestablish themselves.  When I had no words I would just trust that God knew and understood what was in every difficult breathe I took at that moment.  The hardest person to forgive was myself I felt I deserved misery.
    
While standing in the presence of God I felt deserving of what he had forgiven and cleansed me from; for what he had already given his life for?  Wow.  When God opens your eyes he allows you to see how the lies of the enemy causes you to walk around locked in a cage while carrying the key in your pocket. 
When you repent and ask God to forgive you he no longer remembers your offense it is then up to you to renew your mind to what God thinks about you and how he views you.  This is a process that takes time.  You have to continually tell the enemy that the lies he is speaking to you no longer apply and you have to replace the lies with the truth, God’s Word”, the word of God washes you. As you begin to transform your mind, you will no longer accept the lies of your past.
 Ephesians 5:25b-26…..He gave up his life for her to make her holy and clean, washed by the cleansing of God's word. 
The mind is the main area the enemy uses when establishing strongholds that make you operate your daily life from the core belief of lies and deception.  When you begin to take your mind back he will fight against it but trust God and have faith and patience’s that if God says it’s possible, it is possible.  One day you will look back and realize you are able to see your past from a distance and experience freedom from the hold it once had on you.  So be strong because God wants to and will help you through the process, his grace and strength is there for you every step of the way. 
Psalm 34:18 The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.

(Psalm 147:3) He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.


Gather the broken pieces of your heart and give them to God he can mend and heal it.

My heart was torn into many tiny pieces and distributed throughout my life time.  A little left here a piece left there until it got to the point that with every breath I took it got harder and harder to breathe I felt like I was dieing.  I just needed God to just take away this pain just take away the PAIN. 
I had survived so many years allowing fear to control me, tears to console me and un-forgiveness to secure me from future harm by others.  I had become totally numb to the idea of freedom, even though my heart was crying out for a taste of it.  I wanted to be free but, how do I “BE” free?  What does it look like?  What does it feel like? I would stand in church service with my eyes closed tight, my hands lifted up high, I would even shed tears but I couldn’t seem to get to that point to where fear didn’t come rushing in just to prevent me from surrendering everything.  Un-forgiveness would quickly follow suite making sure I’m reassured that as my “protector” he knows best.  Advising me not to fall for this forgiveness thing it’s a trick, another game.  Just make sure no one is allowed to break past my barriers, he would whisper to me.  We have worked so hard together and spent so many years setting up these walls to keep me in and others out, look how well protected you are.  Very convincing argument he presented so much that I would just pull back and reposition myself in that comfortable yet familiar place of fear and un-forgiveness.  My heart was in the firm grip of fear and un-forgiveness. 
Once again I made it to the end of another service at church.  I would stand up straighten myself up put my mask back on and cordially make my way through the crowd hoping no one would see or question me about the fact that I was actually wearing a mask.  I successfully made it to my car in the parking lot, took a deep breath, sighed a sigh of relief, happy I made it without being confronted about my mask, feeling good.  Condemnation taps on my car door window at that moment, your still not free.  I look up and realize that I, again, had fallen for the lies and tricks of the deceiver that had convinced me, yet again, that fear and un-forgiveness had my back and that they had my best interest at heart.  Making sure I let no-one in, not even God.
Fear is a lie and binding device sent by the enemy to immobilize you; to get you to except bondage and condemnation.  Un-forgiveness is rooted in fear, fear of being hurt or embarrassed if I forgive.  How many times have you heard or felt that if you forgive then you will be open to being hurt again.  How many times has fear told you that he will keep you safe from being hurt again?   Well, I heard it so much that I believed the lie. 
What lie have you accepted as truth that is keeping you bound and immobilized at this very moment you are reading this?
God my hearts cry is that you will expose the enemy that is keeping people, that you love so much, bound and restrained, immobilized and limited by the hurt and pains of their past.  I pray freedom for them through your precious blood and in your name Jesus Christ, Amen.

The Breath of God Brings Healing

It is the very breath of God that breathes life into the wounded areas of a broken life.  Through this process restoration and healing of a heart shattered and scattered begins.  He will gather every part of your heart that's been held by painful memories,  broken promises, rejection,  failed relationships, abuse and stolen innocence’s; gently and carefully he will put the pieces back together again, wrap it in his love then hide you under his wings.  When the healing process feels the most intense he draws your attention by releasing you into worship, hiding you within himself assuring complete safety in his arms. 
The journey I never believed I could endure let along begin has brought me to a place from being Wounded to being a Worshipper and I did not even realize the transformation; until one day I turned around looked back and could see my past from a distance.  I could take a deep breathe, no longer could I feel it's effect and was able to clearly see my God through eyes of a worshipper not the distortion and lies of my past.   That is my story in a few short sentences.
God’s true desire is for us to just be our true authentic self.  This can only happen if we are healed from the wounds of the past.  The past can hold us to the point of total immobilization; only existing and not being able to truly live.  There are many believers who only exist and do not truly experience a life of freedom in God.  The bondage of hurts and pains becomes a noose that is controlled by unforgiveness.  It continues to choke the life out of the one being lead around by it. 
(John 10:10)-(NIV) The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
God says that he came that we might have life and that more abundantly. He made provisions for our freedom by taken the sins of the world on his shoulders and gave up his right to hold the guilty, guilty.  This is the only way we will be able to truly worship him.  A person healed by God from the inside out becomes a worshipper. 
(John 4:23-24)-(The Message) It's who you are and the way you live that count before God. Your worship must engage your spirit in the pursuit of truth. That's the kind of people the Father is out looking for: those who are simply and honestly themselves before him in their worship. God is sheer being itself—Spirit. Those who worship him must do it out of their very being, their spirits, their true selves, in adoration."
That is the journey of this blog.  A journey to find our voice in God; to become our true authentic self through the discovery of truth revealed by the Holy Spirit and the love and healing touch of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Be Blessed
