I Prayed for You

-
On October 25th, of this year, I had been praying in my prayer time, and the Holy Spirit gave me a word that I wrote out in my prayer journal.  I found it again this morning, feeling prompted to pull that particular book open- as tears filled my eyes--it spoke afresh to me this morning.  I feel like there is another who needs this word this morning:

"For I, the Lord God, am your everlasting Provider.  There is nothing that I cannot supply.  Your trust is secure in Me.  I do not fail.  I have called you and will keep you.  Do you understand how I had all these things already in My sight?  I knew you before you were born.  I have already equipped you with the necessary weaponry to fight any battle--use what you know.  I am FAITHFUL.  Don't forget all I have already brought you through."

In all my years of walking with God, I have learned that HE is always faithful.  We will go through battles and times when we feel are the deepest places of despair in our lives--but those times are allowed to draw us TO HIM.  The enemy plants distractions and all manner of mayhem in our path to keep our minds AWAY from the Word and promises of God. (Mayhem that is worse than the AllState commercial.)

I was prompted this morning--"remind them to get in the WORD"--for the Word of God is our sharp weapon and Jesus gave us the example of using it when He was tempted by the devil.  The foe is defeated through the power of our words when we USE THE WORD of GOD!

I had just typed out more--but deleted it because I believe this is all He wanted to remind us of today.

I took this picture years ago to remind myself later--what God CAN and will do.
He IS our Deliverer and the Restorer of our lives.

Pull up a memory in your heart of what HE has done for you--and remind yourself--HE is still able to do EXCEEDINGLY AND ABUNDANTLY MORE.....

Let's Talk About Marriage

Well, for starters, I know ours has flaws--because WE have flaws.  But I am thankful for where we are today.  We wouldn't have made it though--without major determination.   Jeff preached Sunday at our church.  I always love hearing him--but this time it was from home.  Currently, it sounds worse than it is--but much coughing sounds makes people more nervous than ever.  It's been going around....it finally got me and Jeff.  I guess since his legs are longer, he waded through it faster....who knows.  It has lingered, I can promise you not by invitation. Anyway, he segued a bit in his message because it was nigh impossible to see his notes.  But you know God planted the words of the message--even down to the detour.  Part of the detour took you to a window into our marriage when he talked about an issue he has dealt with in the past.  He talked about his drug addiction and alcoholism.  He didn't give the full blown testimony--it'...

Gear UP!

Our oldest grandson has some favorite things: Wrestling, Marvel Movies, family, and a good banana split.    Almost in that order.  With him being autistic, I've had to learn a new approach on many things in our lives, but especially change when it comes to him.  We stick to a routine as much as possible for his sake.  This past Saturday we watched a Marvel Movie:  Captain America: The Winter Soldier.  When something is said that catches my ear--I pay attention and generally pause the movie and write it down.  I did so last Saturday, when near the end portion of the movie the bad guys were about to go down because the heroes were gearing up.  Steve Rogers (Capt. America) turns to Sam Wilson (Falcon) and says these powerful--and true words: "Gear up.  If you're gonna fight a war, you gotta wear a uniform." You know what I'm about to talk about right? There is an absolute war going on.  Everywhere.  In foreign countries...in the p...

Cover Them

In my quiet time this morning, I had one of those thoughts that came flying through.  Not a bad thought-but a very clear "picture thought".   The phrase, "cover me-I'm going in" did a fly by in my brain.   I have said it before, I enjoy a good western movie.  Mostly the older ones though.  I don't think they make a western movie any more that doesn't have a barn full of cussing and clothing issues....if you get my drift.  So, I generally stick with the old black and white programs when I want to watch a good western.   It's a shame though. A true shame that we have become so word deficient that we have to rely on bad language to sell a movie.  You can see real quick I could go off on a rant right here if I'm not careful.  So I'll stop and thank God that we actually have had some good movies in the past few years.  Back to the fly-by.  "Cover me--I'm going in", has been said in countless westerns, cop shows, murder mysteries, etc...
