Just a Note

I’ve been blogging since 2009 and I love it. But I also see this as ministry and want to continue to do this as long as God leads me.  Over the years, a few people have inquired about being able to donate to be a blessing to me personally. I’ve not felt to do that until now. In fact I woke up from a nap, just this afternoon and felt strongly to add a donate button to this blog.

The donate button is right under the number of hits, I’ve received on this site.  Please don’t be offended. This is because some have requested it. If that is not you, feel free to enjoy this blog as usual. No pressure and God bless!!  (The image below is not the donation button)

Warning for America

The other day when the Supreme Court ruled DOMA (Defense of Marriage Act) null and void, I felt a shift in the atmosphere and it wasn’t good. Words cannot express how heavy my heart is at the direction this nation is taking in this area and many others. There is so much going on that we don’t even realize is happening and our liberties are being taken away everyday. Ten years from now, we will not recognize America if these things keep going on.

What grieves me more than anything is the attitude of the church and how we are largely silent while sin is being legislated. What is more grievous, is that Christians may or may not believe what the bible says and even if they do, they will remain silent or politically correct. There is only one problem. God is not going to allow this stuff to go on without judging it. Read your bible.

The biggest enemy to the church today is this “user-friendly” gospel being preached that is designed to not step on any ones  toes. There is an absence of teaching on sin, judgment and hell and anything deemed “negative”. If it’s not positive thinking or making us feel comfortable in spite of our sin, we don’t want to hear it. The bible talks about itching ears and not wanting to hear the truth.

I’m afraid for America, but I am more afraid for the church. Remember, Sodom and Gomorrah was destroyed because of sin. I don’t know why we don’t think judgement is about love. That is absolutely what it’s about. Just like a parent brings correction, so God does the same thing. This has been bubbling up in my spirit for a while and then this morning I heard a warning from a Prophet about America and it confirmed all that I am feeling.

Do you think that America will be exempt from being destroyed? Do you think war can’t break out right on our shores? Do you think natural disasters can’t come and destroy us? Do you think life as we know it, can’t change in a minutes time? If you think we are exempt from any of this, you are surely mistaken.

Just recently, TSUNAMI activity was picked up on the EAST COAST!! Do you think we can’t get hit and the East coast be wiped away?? Remember Sandy?? Hit the East Coast and did damage that those people NEVER thought they would experience. IT’S TIME TO WAKE UP PEOPLE OF GOD!!

Please take the time to listen to this warning concerning America. And there is also a link explaining what the Supreme Courts decision meant.

Supreme Court strikes down part of DOMA

Grateful!

I’m not writing as much because I have resumed keeping my personal journal. But I can’t forget out this blog. I know someone is helped by it, even if it’s just one person.

I am so grateful for all that God is doing. In a time that most would consider a bad time in my life, I have sailed through it with no grief at all. Losing your home is a big thing, but I don’t feel like I’ve lost at all. I have the Word of the Lord about some things and mainly the logos Word (the Bible) and it lets me know all that I have gone through will work out for my good.

I am making a new commitment to be more obedient and yield to God; more than ever before. I know God is up to something and although we don’t always see and understand, God has a plan.

The key to getting through a difficult time is to be grateful for what you have. I am grateful to God that he made a way for me to stay here in Florida, because this is where I am called to be during this season of my life. I’m grateful that my sister made a sacrifice and opened her doors to me. Seemingly small things, but, I am grateful!

I am grateful because I have a hope and a future! And you do too!!!

Jeremiah 29:11

Amplified Bible (AMP)

11 For I know the thoughts and plans that I have for you, says the Lord, thoughts and plans for welfare and peace and not for evil, to give you hope in your final outcome.

Coveting

I don’t know who is reading my blog, but God has a purpose for me continuing to post, so I will be obedient. I have to say this is good stuff! No, I’m not boasting about my posts. I am boasting about what God is doing and how He is speaking and this wonderful prophet walk!

So recently a friend had a dream about me and I guess God is giving the dreams to someone else so they will have more impact or so I will pay attention. It just seems that when someone else has the dream, God is really underlining something and saying “pay attention”.

So this friend of mine, had a dream about someone coveting something that belonged to me and honestly, up until this point I had never been possessive about this particular promise, but through this dream, I believe God was reminding me that this thing belongs to me! So in the dream, this woman started coveting something that didn’t belong to her and she ended up in a lot of trouble because of this. Of course in the end she did not get what she was coveting.

When I thought about the dream, I was concerned because what if this person really wrongly believes some belongs to then that doesn’t? Well,  the Lord told me it is our responsibility to seek Him to find out if something is RIGHTFULLY OURS! Now that is deep!! So if you chase after something or someone who doesn’t belong to you and end up in trouble, it’s on you and not God!!

So what does it mean to covet? I love going to the dictionary because sometimes it gives you more insight on even the most common words. So here is what dictionary.com say that covet means:

cov·et

[kuhv-it]  Show IPA

verb (used with object)

1. to desire wrongfully, inordinately, or without due regard for the rights of others: to covet another’s property.

2. to wish for, especially eagerly: He won the prize they all coveted.

verb (used without object)

3. to have an inordinate or wrongful desire.

As I read this definition, I realize when you covet something or someone, it also speaks of being lack of respect for others. You see when someone really wants something inordinately, sometimes they will do whatever it takes, good and bad to get what they want and that can be dangerous.

It’s wonderful to see a situation from God’s prospective. You may not have that person, place or thing in your possession yet, but if God says it’s yours, IT’S YOURS and he will do whatever to stop someone from taking what rightfully belongs to you. That is God’s perspective, not mine. My attitude was to wear the situation loosely and I still will. But the difference is, God has underlined the fact that this promise belongs to me.

If you have question as to what is rightfully yours, make sure you seek God. Don’t waste you time coveting. It is just a time waster and even if you get what you are coveting, you probably won’t be able to keep it.

Exodus 20:17

Amplified Bible (AMP)

17 You shall not covet your neighbor’s house, your neighbor’s wife, or his manservant, or his maidservant, or his ox, or his donkey, or anything that is your neighbor’s.

Warnings About People Pt. 2

I wanted to share another experience of a warning God gave me about someone. If you didn’t read part one, you can click on this link, so this post doesn’t  seem like it’s coming from nowhere. 🙂  https://apropheticwalk.wordpress.com/2013/06/18/warnings-about-people-pt-1/

I know not everyone get’s warning in dreams and visions, but if you pay attention  God will let you know when you need to be careful about people.. I am just sharing my own experiences.

I remember meeting this lady through a message board and when I read her posts, she seemed quite mild-mannered and nice and somehow, she and I connected offline and started talking to each other  via phone. Well was I in for the shock of my life.  This woman (who I have been disconnected from for years) was one of the loudest women I had ever met in my life. lol So much for the online persona.

Well long story short, I dreamed about this woman and saw a black rat and sure enough in a short  period of time I was on a three-way call with her and she decided she was going to call ANOTHER woman and allow myself and the other woman to LISTEN IN without her knowledge. I remember as soon as she  started dialing the other woman’s number, I hung up. And other than one to two more conversations, that was it (she called me).

It was all so very shocking because I have never and will never let someone listen in on my phone calls. But this was yet another warning and in this case and the other case that I shared, God wanted these women completely out of my life. But there are also times when God’s warning are about  keeping people out of your life for now. It’s funny how I started this post, shortly after posting part one, but couldn’t finish it until now and I think it’s because I have the perfect example of this last point.

So I was going to email someone, just to be courteous because they continue to “communicate’ with me, but God said no. But I didn’t realize it until after I tried to send the email, and it stayed in the outbox, meaning it just would not send. Then it came to me, that maybe I was not supposed to communicate with the person. Well, me not getting it, I tweeted the person, just trying to be nice. Well I got a response that let me know that I need to leave that person alone for now.

You see some times God will warn us about folks we need to leave alone for now also. The truth is, I’ve gotten warnings for a while now, and without assassinating their character, God showed me healing and deliverance is needed.

I will just have compassion from a distance because not only do they need it, but they are going to need it even more in the days to come. Meanwhile life goes on and I am living my life and enjoying it and will continue to steer clear and listen to God’s warnings..

Proverbs 16:18

New International Version (NIV)

18 Pride goes before destruction,a haughty spirit before a fall.

 

Exciting Days! Pt. 2

I am a firm believer that some things just can’t and won’t happen until the appointed time.  And there is nothing more exciting then to begin to walk into that appointed time or “set time.” It’s seems that season is here for me and boy is it exciting!

You would think this would be the worse time for me because I just “lost” my home, but nothing could be further from the truth. This has turned out to be a very exciting time as I am seeing God’s hand move and seeing that he has so much more for me than I could even see for myself.

Wisdom dictates that I not go into details about it all, but yesterday morning the Lord directed me to go by my old house before I did something else and I would have ignored the instruction, until God had my prayer partner give me the EXACT same word of instruction. It’s just amazing how God will direct us, if we want to be and I want to be directed by God. Well, I can’t go into the result of following that instruction, but let me tell you, if God tells you to do something, He has a reason of course, so make sure you obey.

This morning I received another instruction, and all I can say is this was a “spying out the land” instruction because I believe that He is showing me another house which will be my place of residence. That’s all I’m going to say about that, except that I almost did a dance when I actually traveled to and stood in front of this house. I didn’t stay long. Just said a quick prayer and took down the realtors number and kept it moving. lol

Yes, these steps are by faith, but to me, that is actually what makes it more exciting. I don’t believe I would have done any of this if, I had remained at my former residence. Being “made to move” as the prophet told me was all in the plan of God and I am glad about it and haven’t had one day of wishing I could go back. It’s full speed ahead.

When we submit totally to God, he is going to make sure that we get where we need to be, even if he has to force us out. Wow, I felt that. Someone is going to be forced OUT, but it’s all a part of the plan of God. Don’t fight against God. Just keep moving forward.

Psalm 102:13

New International Version (NIV)

13 You will arise and have compassion on Zion, for it is time to show favor to her; the appointed time has come.
