Yesterday when I was praying with a friend, it just popped out that ABBA is not finished with America.  I believe what I prayed! And I am encouraged! He is not finished with us! Our Lampstand has not yet been removed! So get out there, you and me, and SHINE. Get out there and be His Instruments of love, mercy, grace, forgiveness, correction, restoration, and salvation and take this Country back for the sake of the World! 

Revelation 2:4-6 New King James Version (NKJV)

4 Nevertheless I have this against you, that you have left your first love.
5 Remember therefore from where you have fallen; repent and do the first works, or else I will come to you quickly and remove your lampstand from its place—unless you repent.
6 But this you have, that you hate the deeds of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate.

via Revelation 2:4-6 NKJV – Nevertheless I have this against you, – Bible Gateway.

DADDY GOD, thank You that You have not yet removed our lampstand. Please don’t remove it. Please help us return to You, to do the first works for JESUS sake. Bless America, ABBA, with grace to repent and space to repent I pray. 

Blessings to you Dear Friends    +++

Dewy Fresh

Gallery Leave a comment

When my beloved shared his Guidepost devotion with me this morning, I became eager to get to our screen to share it with you. It is last year’s read but dewy fresh to me this morning.

“I used to like the saying “When life gives you lemons, make lemonade!” But after an experience our daughter had one year, I’ve changed the words slightly.

Nikki was five then and looking forward to the pet show her kindergarten teacher had announced. She couldn’t wait to show off Purry, our black kitten, and to admire her classmates’ pets as well. Then life dumped a whole crateful of lemons on Nikki in the form of chicken pox. Spotty and itchy, she felt too miserable to enjoy staying home. Even the little “get well” toys we gave her couldn’t sweeten her forced vacation. 

When she returned to school, I hoped she wouldn’t be too dejected after hearing about the fun she had missed. Instead, she came home bursting with pride and handed me the cause of her elation. It was a shiny gold foil medallion with two blue construction paper ribbons dangling beneath. The inscription on the foil said, “First Prize for Most Invisible Cat.”

Do you know someone too discouraged today to see a bright side? I suggest that when life gives your friends lemons, you help them make lemonade! Nikki’s teacher provided the “sugar” with a few scrapes of paper.

How can I help?

How can you?

LORD, give us sensitivity and creativity to uplift others.  —B.J. Connor

‘Ain’t’ that good?!!

I am praying for the Kirk-Dossett Family today. John was out for his regular walk this Tuesday evening and instead of walking back to the house to join Debbie for supper, he joined JESUS. It has been an engulfing shock to them, so if you will join me in praying for them all.  And I still have many, many others on my ‘LORD JESUS, please help list’; as perhaps you do too.

DADDY GOD, thank You for always hearing my prayers. Thank You for the prayer conversations of this morning already; and it is my request to continue them. Debbie, John III, and all the family. Thank You, HOLY SPIRIT, for laying them heavy on my mind, asking for strength for them, for peace, comfort and consolation, carry them, O LORD, through these days and weeks of fresh mourning. Kerri, Dori and Pam – remembering them too; precious women needing individual, for different reasons Your touch in their lives and upon their very beings. Others too, ABBA, fresh on my heart I bring for Your Will to be done.  Israel. Protection and peace for them; for the subduing of all their enemies. And, ABBA, I am asking You for mercy on America. We the people, many of us, those who You have saved, we desire this Nation to stand with Israel, to support and help Israel; we do not want America to turn Her back on Israel so I pray that You will overrule the numbers here that are anti-Israel and cause us to be a steadfast ally with and for Israel. And I pray You will stop Iran from getting this weapon of mass destruction. I am mindful that Your Word describes destruction is coming upon this world typical of nuclear warfare but I am asking You for more time to advance Your Gospel; for more people to be saved and for more Christians to get serious about You and obeying Your Commission to us.  And for the day before us, thank You that You Got This and we are safe in JESUS name. I pray for each one who comes here to read and to pray that each will sense Your Manifest Presence today, and be corrected, be encouraged, be renewed and revived to good works in Your Name.Thank You, ABBA.

Blessings to you Dear Friends    +++

Six Years Ago

Gallery 2 Comments

Reading a devotion that I wrote more than six (6) years ago (click HERE to read it) words found in Proverbs 16 have seized me and will not let go. I don’t want them to. I want them to lay hold to me and transform me. Look with me.

Proverbs 16 Amplified Bible (AMP)

3 Roll your works upon the Lord [commit and trust them wholly to Him; He will cause your thoughts to become agreeable to His will, and] so shall your plans be established and succeed.

via Proverbs 16 AMP – The plans of the mind and orderly – Bible Gateway.

He will cause your thoughts to become agreeable to His will

What would it look like for my thoughts, your thoughts, to be agreeable to ABBA’s will on a continually consistent basis? What would life be like? What would relationships be like? Would the climate change in our homes, in our communities, in our Nation? Would it?

Any thoughts you’d care to share?

I am praying for Regie today. He is having a heart cath this Friday morning. And I’m praying for protection for Americans who love America and who are in danger from those who hate America. These are perilous times.

2 Timothy 3 New King James Version (NKJV)

1 But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come:
2 For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good,
4 traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!

via 2 Timothy 3 NKJV – Perilous Times and Perilous Men – But – Bible Gateway.

ABBA, You always hear the prayers of Your children. Thank You. I pray You begin to hear more prayers. More of Your children praying fervent prayers without ceasing. And right now I commit Regie’s heart cath to You, for it to be successful, for it to be very good news, for You to grant him restoration, a very favorable outcome I pray. Words are not coming easily, ABBA. Events in Libya and Egypt, the players in this evil desecration of life, Americans in danger, it’s too much for me to get my soul around. HOLY SPIRIT, intercede for us; intercede for Americans around this globe in places of conflict and hatred, protect them please and LORD JESUS please come quickly and soon and put an end to this hatred. And while we wait for You, JESUS, we want to occupy as You have told us to. Help us commit our works to You and allow You to cause us to be agreeable with Your Will in us and through us. And thank You for reminding me of others; thank You for what You have done for them and what You will yet do.  And for each who gather here for prayer, I ask for strength meet for this day for them and for abundant love for You and others in JESUS name.

Blessings, Friends +++
