Putting on the Full Armor of God video

Putting on the Full Armor God!!

 Really feeling during this season in my life that this is another season for making sure that the "Full Armor of God is put on before my feet hit the floor. It definitely should be every season of my life, not just the down and dirty ones. :) It's when I forget that I get gobbed smacked in the face unexpectedly and it's not pretty!!  I am even reading an awesome book about Putting on the Full Armor called.  This topic is definitely the hot topic for the week and have some really cool videos that will be worth sitting down and watching and reflecting on.  Blessings as you step out!!

"The Inheritance" By Graham Cooke

This is an encouraging prophetic message from a prophetic man that I have grown to be inspired by.  My mentor told me about this lovely inspiring man of God.  This inspiring word I  have played over and over on my MP3 player when I was going through hard stuff and was feeling down and out.  I want more of Him and less of me!  May you be inspired today and feel the love of God pour in you!

The Greatest Gift given to Us This Good Friday - His Son Jesus Dying on the Cross for Our Sins!!

My Favorite time of the Year! Easter Weekend!! It was over two thousand years ago that "Good Friday" that my Lord and Savior bore both yours and my sins on that Cross.  No, I sure didn't deserve it and every time I watch him being nailed too the cross in a movie or video it makes me feel very sad but full of hope and knowing that he took my sins on that cross anyway, so one day I could go to be in Heaven with him.   Now if that isn't down right exciting, what is?  That is if,  I so chose to accept the invitation of asking him to come reside into my heart.   Thank you my Savior for giving me that priceless free gift that no one would ever give me no matter how hard I searched I would never find it!  It didn't cost a thing and it was completely free.  Can you imagine that, FREE!!!  It's a choice I get to choose and I made that choice at they very young age of a tot.  Will you give your heart and soul to Jesus too?  What are you waiting for?  You have nothing to lose but to gain!  The Sinner's prayer is below if you so choose to receive Him in your heart! Reading it out loud would be beautiful!.  What a an exciting venture this very Special Easter Weekend of the year!!  You will be forever changed!! So are you ready to dedicate your heart too Him?  The angels rejoice each time someone gives their heart to Jesus!! It's a time of celebration! Jesus waits patiently whenever you are ready whether it be today or a year from now. He is patient like that you know. :)    "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!" 2 Cor 5:17 

SALVATION PRAYER

Dear God in heaven, I come to you in the name of Jesus. I acknowledge to You that I am a sinner, and I am sorry for my sins and the life that I have lived; I need your forgiveness.

I believe that your only begotten Son Jesus Christ shed His precious blood on the cross at Calvary and died for my sins, and I am now willing to turn from my sin.

You said in Your Holy Word, Romans 10:9 that if we confess the Lord our God and believe in our hearts that God raised Jesus from the dead, we shall be saved.

Right now I confess Jesus as the Lord of my soul. With my heart, I believe that God raised Jesus from the dead. This very moment I accept Jesus Christ as my own personal Savior and according to His Word, right now I am saved.

Thank you Jesus for your unlimited grace which has saved me from my sins. I thank you Jesus that your grace never leads to license, but rather it always leads to repentance. Therefore Lord Jesus transform my life so that I may bring glory and honor to you alone and not to myself.

Thank you Jesus for dying for me and giving me eternal life. AMEN.

Are you in the Desert? Do you feel like you can't find an end in sight?

Are you walking or crawling through this desert land you find yourself in?  Is it dry?  Is there no life in sight and you are beginning to wonder if God even knows you exist or better yet if he even hears your every cry?  Well my friend, I am hear to tell you that he does hear your every cry and your every whim and pain.  He loves you and cares for you!   Truth is I have been in the desert place over the last couple of years now, and have found myself crawling in the sandy bottom pit at times and wonder if I can ever find my way out.   But one thing I can say for sure is He never has left me even for a moment even when I have felt I haven't heard his voice at times.  He's always been present even when I thought he wasn't.   He has directed me when I asked him to direct me. There is joy in that desert, did you know that?  So one can be going through that desert place and still have such a joy unexplainable that no one would even imagine they are going through a time such as this.  But that is the place where I know he has my family and I and our situation and I can find joy in the storm! The fruit of going through this desert is great if you are willing to stick it out!! If all you can say is "Help me God" he will.  What a loving and caring God we so serve just waiting for us to choose his ways and not our own.  The Joy of the Lord is your Strength, dear one!! So my dear friend whatever desert you are walking or crawling through today be rest assured you are never alone. He has got you and your situation and it's all in how we choose to look at our situation. We we choose to be a victor or a victim?  It's our choice!  We get to choose.  Be Blessed today my Friend!!

I Can Feel You....

This is such a lovely song that has inspired me!! May it Bless you today!!

You don't want my Perfectionism!

The lyrics in this song is powerful!! Enjoy! May it speak to the core of your very being today!! Bless you today as you take a step deeper in Him!

What Foundation do You Stand on Today? Rock or Sand?

I absolutely love this worship song!!   On Christ the Rock I stand, no double minded shifting sand.  On Christ the rock I plant my feet, a firm foundation for me!!  When we stand on a firm foundation, nothing can move us!! We are His and He is ours!!  Oh yeah, the adversary will try.  That's his job.  But nothing can harm or move us because we are his Sons/Daughters.  Praying you will be encouraged today through this song!! We serve one Holy God!  Bless you in your coming and going today!!! 

Just lay Back and Rest in His Arms

Are you too busy to take that few minutes to rest in him and and inhale and exhale Him!
It's in the moments of chaos that we have to really take inventory on what is the reason we are in such a huge rush?  Is it going to kill us to take a few minutes to talk to our Heavenly Father and or listen to a couple of songs that very well could impact the rest of our day.  So what are you waiting for?  I give you permission to sit in that chair or lay on your coach today and just soak him in as you listen to this song! Praying it will minister to you today!! Believe me you will be glad you did! :)

Tell Your Heart to Beat Again...

Praying this song encourages you whatever punches have been thrown at you! Stand Strong!! You are not defeated!  You have one that is greater in you than one that is in this world!!  John 4:4  The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still."   Exodus 14:14   So be encouraged today my friend!! The Battle doesn't belong to you, but to the Lord!  2 Chronicles 20:15

I Know You are For Me And Not Against Me, but....

Do you ever find yourself saying I know you are for me but....    Hmm, doesn't add up does it?  We all do at times especially when the tough gets going and the going gets tough.  Yep, it's a rough walk, but there is beauty in that journey! I think we have all heard it one time or another that "Life is a Journey not a Destination, right?  Well it sure is and sometimes in that journey there are rocks we stumble over and may even fall down along that path, but we know whom will pick us back and keep us walking along that journey. It's our Heavenly Father or Daddy you may say.  Yes and it's called never giving up no matter the cost!!  Never!! Even when you want too! I will admit I have fallen two times this winter. Once with snow shoes and I was back in the woods all by myself because I love spending that time alone with God in the woods and I went face down in hard snow. At first it was tempting not to get up and just lay there.  I had no one physically to help me up with these big clompy snow shoes on, but I knew I had to do it or else I would get soaked.  So all of a sudden,  I lay there and yelled out  ow very loudly and burst out laughing. My laugh echoed in that woods and the more I laughed the more joyful I became. Laughter breaks things off and is the most therapeutic and medicinal.  Did you know that?  I turned over and didn't want to get back up so you know what I did, grabbed my little camera out of my pocket and started snapping photos of what life is like from the ground level and yes even did a selfie!! Haha!!   I love to humor myself!! So I hope this song encourages you today like it has encouraged me many times along my journey. Bless you !!

Thank you Lord for Holding my Head up!!

You hold my head up, you remind me of who I am!!  I am made new!! Whohoo!!

I am a new creature in Him!

Might want to get your dancing shoes out for this one!

I don't know about you, but did you know that dance is warfare!!The adversary would rather not see us praising Jesus and dancing.  He gets bummed out about it.

So it's at the time when perhaps everything seems to be going a bit on the bonky side and I certainly  don't feel like dancing  that I get up and turn the music up and dance with all my strength. Stuff falls off not only me but whatever is around me as well.  It works.  My challenge to you today is to try it!!  It works. I'm living proof.  :) Haha!!

Will you Let HIm Hold you today?

This song speaks for itself.  So Beautiful!!  It's through the trials that we grow, believe it or not.
I pray this song will bless you where you are at today!

Do we Praise Him when there are Storms or shoe Him off to the Side?

Do you have a hard time praising Him when you are in the middle of a tornado or hurricane in your life?  I know I have been there and still am at times.  It's when I get my ring of scriptures out or go to my Bible and find a scripture to encourage me or if I am at the end of my rope I fall face down and and surrender it all.  Why not?   I have nothing to lose and he hears my every cry and my every concern. Did you know he entruly cares about every issue you have today?  He really does, even when it doesn't feel like it.  Remember, it's on his agenda when he answers our prayers, not ours.   So I pray today that as you listen to this song that Jesus will comfort you if you are in that middle of that storm right now.  He knows your heart more than anyone and loves you more than anyone on this earth could love you. Sending a hug to you my friend!! Praying for you today that God will move mountains for you. He is a good and loving God even when it feels he isn't.

You are not alone

There are days we feel so alone even though there are so many people around us.  But truth is we really aren't alone.  The Holy Spirit is with us 24/7 even though we can't see Him.  Did you know you can talk to him like you talk to your friend out loud?  I know I do and wow what  a peace and comfort he brings through every emotion that we go through including joy.  There is no one like him and he will never leave you or forsake you.  The honest truth is He is your friend. :) 

Lovely song indicating He is More than what we ever Dreamed!

Taking the Leap of Crazy Faith!

Have you ever had to take the leap of Crazy Faith?  It's a daily routine knowing I have to put my total Faith in him to believe that he has a plan and purpose for me and my family.  Plans to prosper us and not to harm us but to give us a hope and a future.  Jeremiah 29:11 
Ask me about my Mission trip to Haiti sometime! Now that was a "Crazy Faith" Story that I would love to share with you! Here is a tid bit:  From the moment I was asked to part take in my first mission trip as a nurse to wondering how in the world would I ever make $2000.00 in 4 mos being a new graduate and a mother and wife.  Haha!! It was crazy!! In 24 hrs I had $666 from 2 people.  It all didn't come easy or overnight, but it was totally amazing to watch the hand of God move in front of our family with this trip.  It was cool to see their mouths drop open and say yes, see that this is totally God's will and he will provide and he will not close any doors if it is entruly wanting me to go on this trip.  Oh so much more to share, but ask if you are interested in more.  I love sharing how God rocked that trip and how he moved mountains not only for myself but for our group on our first day landing in Haiti.  :)

Who Am I ? Spoken from the Mouths of Babes!

Hope this encourages you today spoken out of the mouths of babes.  Beautiful!

Remind me of Who I am !

This is so beautiful!! Who am I?  Did you know that you were chosen.  Oh Yes, he chose you! You are soooo special and made in his image. There isn't one other like you!  Our Heavenly Father doesn't make junk. In fact he made beauty out of Ashes!  We are all special in his sight and not one is greater than the other no matter what we do in life.  We are all equal in God's eyes and he so loves you just as you are!  He even knows how many hairs are on your head! Now that is incredible I think!! Again, you are chosen and loved and he loves you so unconditionally and will never leave you nor forsake you! He says so in Deuteronomy 31:6  Be Blessed today!!

Have you ever felt like a slave to fear?  I have many times! But I have someone greater than myself that can fight my battles for me!! haha!!   I call him Abba Father, Jesus!! He can wash each of us clean of those fears if you only give him permission. Are you ready to take that step?

Your Are Beloved!!

Do you know you are beloved! He calls you beloved, Daughter/Son. You are chosen and there isn't any other person like you in case you didn't know. He cherishes and loves you just as you are!!  Praying this song encourages you today as you begin this first Spring Day in 2016.  Blessings and Prayers for you in whatever you are going through today! Sending a Virtual Hug!
