Born This Day!

Greetings in the Lord!

Today's word is exciting, although it might take a moment for it to come to light publicly, it is and already has happened.  From Luke 2:1-7 we read about Jesus being born.

Verse 6-7) And while they were there, the time came for her baby to be born.  She gave birth to her firstborn son.  She wrapped him snugly in strips of cloth and laid him in a manger, because there was no lodging available for them.

Indeed, this very hour a "birth" has happened--a God-ordained conception has come to fruition and is now a living "baby."  Praise God for His goodness!  Just like in the days of Jesus, his birth took place humbly, under the radar and away from public eyes, amidst all the pomp and circumstance and activities of the day!  While it was foretold years before and many had constructed their own ideas and expectations about how he would be born, where and to whom, and for what purpose, the natural birth took place unassumingly in a most modest way, out of sight.  Amazing!

Right now there are many such "births" taking place--praise God for each and every one!  Whether for nations or individuals that have been "expecting," the day of delivery has arrived despite all of the hindrances, distractions, and discouragements that have tried to prevent the deliveries--God is good. No doubt, our adventures and the dramas of life will continue, but God has fulfilled His promises in His unique and powerful way this season.  Praise be to God, our faithful Keeper of Promises.

~Be blessed and be a blessing.

Blazing Iron of Harvey

Greetings in the Lord, In 2003-2006, the Lord had given me many words about all the troubles that would be heading to the United States: natural disasters (Hurricane Katrina), financial disasters (Wall Street 2008), and the coming of a false light (Obama) that would lead many people astray and usher in a time of great spiritual backsliding in the United States.  These, among other things, were foretold by the Lord and had significance beyond their obvious immediate impact and result.  Therefore, it behooves us to scratch beneath the surface and allow the Holy Spirit to explain "Why?"  Foretold events are significant and go beyond natural circumstances.  It is important to leave conventional wisdom and the mystique of science and technology to sit at the feet of the Holy Spirit.  He is the only one who can explain, "Why?" and illumine the Word of God to the deeper layers of meaning encased within. That is where prophesying gets a bit tricky.  We can only...

Putting the "C" Back in the YMCA

Greetings in the Lord! About two weeks ago I had a dream in which I looked over to the direction of my closet and I saw a rock in a desert---then water, clear and cool came out from it and filled my spirit. It was so refreshing that I actually woke up full of energy. It reminded me of the rock Moses struck in the desert that brought forth water for the Israelites. It was so powerful a dream that I discerned that something new was about to take place. Well, sure enough. This week the Lord has put on my heart that He intends to pour out His Spirit on the YMCA where I am employed. The funny thing is, all up until that dream of water coming from the rock, I had been distressed about the lack of the true "C"--Christianity, in the YMCA. By in large, the organization promotes "good" religious values (Caring, Respect, Responsibility, and Honesty) and give some lip service to God, but actions and hard heart conditions toward Jesus and the Word are overly prevalent. The botto...

Spirit of Repentance

Greetings in the Lord! Today's word comes from Isaiah chapters 46 & 47, especially 46:10-13: "I make known the end from the beginning, from ancient times, what is still to come. I say: My purpose will stand, and I will do all that I please. From the east I summon a bird of prey; from a far-off land, a man to fulfill my purpose. What I have said, that will I do. Listen to me, you stubborn-hearted, you who are far from righteousness. I am bringing my righteousness near, it is not far away; and my salvation will not be delayed. I will grant salvation to Zion, my splendor to Israel." ~One of the last "divine appointments" I had while in the Philippines was with a self-proclaimed political terrorist. As I shared with him the word to repent that the Lord had sent me to Manila to give, I heard myself prophesy about the upcoming judgments the United States would endure if they would not change their ways as well. I became overcome with sadness as I shared this, as...

Even Though, It is Well With My Soul

Greetings in the Lord! Today's word comes from Jeremiah 37:9-10~ "This is what the Lord says: Do not deceive yourselves, thinking, 'The Babylonians will surely leave us.' They will not! Even if you were to defeat the entire Babylonian army that is attacking you and only wounded men were left in their tents, they would come out and burn this city down." ~Yesterday and tonight I watched the TV documentary/drama of "Path to 9/11." I thought the program was interesting and appreciated the fact that the program took its time in presenting all the ist incidents that led up to 9/11...including our policymakers official positions, as well as all the counter-activity that went on by those in the field that seemed to of had a better understanding of ist activities and intentions. So, at the end of the program as I milled over what I had seen, I felt the overwhelming urge to ask the Lord what He thought. I recalled all the words He had given me in...

Restful December Notice

Greetings in the Lord! I just wanted to write and give a warm best wishes to all this holiday season! It has been laid on my heart to take some time off from writing and spend it resting close to the Master for the month. I thank God for each and every one of you and pray that you will enjoy the holiday season and find some together time with Jesus as well. Whether it's Christmas caroling, having friends and loved ones over for fellowship, or reaching out to whoever the Lord puts in your path this season, may the love of Christ be seen on your face and His peace and joy overflowing in your heart. ~Be blessed and be a blessing.

Scatter the Fruitless Fig Trees

Greetings in the Lord! One of the things I've learned very well over the years is that God's timing is not our timing. I know, it's like, "You can say that again, sister!" right? ha Yeah, it's hard to wait...for good things, that is. For the possibility of unpleasant things to happen we can appreciate delay, hoping it never to come to pass, but not so for good things. We want them now. God's word speaks so often of timing, seasons, He calls it, that a special anointing was given to the tribe of Issachar to be able to discern the seasons of God. So that leads me to today's word from Psalm 68 and Mark 11:12-14 and verses 20-21) The next day as they were leaving Bethany, Jesus was hungry. Seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, he went to find out if it had any fruit. When he reached it, he found nothing but leaves, because it was not the season for figs. Then he said to the tree, "May no one ever eat fruit from you again." Mark 11:12-14. In ...

I Spy With My Little Eye

  Greetings in the Lord~ Well, all last week I was in Washington DC for a teachers' conference.  It's been a while since I've been to DC, since January 6th, the January 6th, to be sure.  Yes, I was there--because God put it on my heart to be there; I was actually planning on going to the inaugural prayer breakfast a week later, as I've done before.  But this time, it was fun to tell everyone my version of that infamous day, which is far from the B.S. told by the media and corrupt politicians.  However, as I've already written about what I saw that day I will not repeat it today, but rather, I will share a few tidbits from my past week and what I discern is the significance.   For starters, I had a vision three times while was in DC--the same vision each time.  It was of the Capitol building and of the street leading up to it.  In the vision, I saw a very complicated network of underground passageways leading to and from the Capitol and all u...
