His Lordship

I challenge you today to contend for the Lordship of Jesus Christ in your life.
Because of the work that the Lord desires to do in this hour, He is drawing us to come before Him.
Unto His Lordship, make it total, make it abundantly evident in your life, that there might be a revelation of His Life.
A demonstration of His ways. A marvelous experience of His peace that in the midst of the storm your rest in Him
will be so complete that you rest and rest and feel no alarm. For surly the storm is approaching and yet does the door remain open
to find a place of abiding in Him. To walk in the Spirit means to walk in His Lordship. His Lordship leaves no vestige, no remnant of government on our part. Our spoken words are containers. Words birthed of the natural order fall to the ground as soon as they leave our mouth. The words the Lord desires us to speak are Spirit and Life. We will Overcome in this hour by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony.

I Will Abide - Gabriel Allred & Elizabeth Clark

I will abide under the shadow of Your wings
In the shelter of Your arms I will be
And I will trust in You Your hand is leading me
My soul will follow hard after Thee

The mercies of Your heart awaken the dawn
In You my joy is found complete
Undone have I become humbled by You
You’re everything I long to be

Jesus Savior God of mine
You alone have ransomed my life
King forever Redeemer and Friend
I belong to You my Beloved

The Foundation

Matthew 7:24… ESV
“Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man
who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds
blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock.

Each day I awake with an expectation of a proceeding word. Not just for me,

but for all those that the Lord has placed in my life. This requires a personal
relationship with the Lord that has been established on a firm foundation and
is in agreement with the written word. As we stand on this “Rock” (who we are in Him)
we are lifted into a higher level of relationship and come to trust in His faithfulness
alone for our daily provision. It is a pressing into the Kingdom each day that takes us
beyond our past insecurities (our house built upon the sand), and causes us to enter in
to the security of being seated with Jesus in His Throne, at the right hand of all power
and authority (our house built upon a rock). Here, as we rest in the victory that Jesus gained
for us upon the cross, our Heavenly Father, who brought Jesus forth into resurrection life
from a grave that appeared to be a total defeat, will also lift us and all those He has placed in our
lives from a place of discouragement and mixture into the overcoming victory in His presence.

Christ Is Our Life

Col 3:4 When Christ, who is our life, appears, you too
will appear to be glorified in fellowship with Him.

There is a pattern of life that God desires for each of us.

It is one full of joy and rest, one that is uninterrupted
communion with God, and in perfect harmony with His will.
It is a life that does not thirst and hunger after the world, that walks
outside of sins, and that transcends all things. Indeed, it is a holy,
powerful and victorious life, and one that knows Gods will and
experiences the enabling grace to walk it out, step by step.
It is the life of the Son. The life which God has ordained
is a life that is hid with Christ in God. It is a place of safety.
Nothing can touch, affect or shake this life. As Christ is unshakable,
so we are unshakable. As Christ transcends all things, we also
transcend all things. As Christ is before God, so we too are before Him.
Let us therefore bring every thought captive to this reality. (2Cor 10:5)
"Greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world." (1John 4:4)
The life of the Son perfectly pleases the Father. “Christ is our life”

Heavenly Expression

“He who overcomes, I will grant to him to sit down with Me on My throne,
as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne.”  Revelation 3:21

An “overcomer” is one who has risen above any desire for expression of the earthly, and is capable of giving expression to the heavenly. There is a foundational “quality” which relates to our becoming an overcomer.  It is “transparency” in our life experience.  The Lord is calling those who earnestly seek Him, into this experience of becoming transparent in His presence. We are not called to just become “polished” on the outside (religious).  But rather, to be so changed within, that we become the expression of the life of Jesus (spiritual).

Off Course

The Lord will come to meet us, even when we seem to have lost the way.
As we confess our need for Him then our heart becomes “good ground” and is
receptive to all that the Lord would desire to do. This is the starting point to recovery
as the Lord is released in a thousand different ways to use both people and circumstances
in our lives to bring about our spiritual restoration. When we place the Lord in full control
of all that pertains to us then we receive everything as being through His hand or by His permission.
At this moment we must fully trust our High Priest and know that all is designed (working together)
to bring forth the very best from the potential that He sees within us. We are to stand still during this time
and rightly interpret our circumstance. At times it will also be a place of separation, apart from friends,
and from those things that would attempt to occupy our time and divert us from entering His rest.
This place of rest is the place where all that is of eternal value is birthed….we will receive a glimpse
of who we are in Him and step by step begin to walk in the Victory of Calvary…..

Heart Matters

 
 
Psalm 37:4   Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.

This speaks of a heart interest toward the Lord that transcends and is deeper than our outward commitments or actions. Something within our heart of hearts that the Lord can see. This comes as we spend time waiting on the Lord and ask Him to make a creative adjustment within us to deal with the desires in our heart and also the hidden things within that we really don’t know or understand that activate us and motivate us at certain points. We are not aware they are there until that situation comes and we find ourselves being lead astray not fully realizing what happened. As we spend time and wait on the Lord, He will deal with these things. We may not understand what is happening while waiting but there will come a readjustment (He shall give..desires) as our heart becomes more aligned with the Lord. Then when that critical time comes again the decision that is made will be towards the Lord and not something else. If in your heart of hearts in those critical moments relating to the things that are known to you and no one else your decision is toward the Lord, the Lord sees that and will honor that as it is now a matter of the heart. Now the desire of your heart is toward the Lord and His favor will rest upon your life as an anointing that will greatly affect everyone in your life as they are lifted from the natural and drawn toward the eternal purposes of The Lord Jesus Christ.

My Prayer Today

Lord Jesus,
May each of us come to the place where we are fully submitted to You as our Lord Jesus Christ. Lord bring us to that place of relationship with You that we are able to function in the spiritual authority that You gained for us through Your death on the cross.  May our lives, and all that pertains to us be brought into divine order and purpose, that we will be able to affect the environment in which we live. Thank You Lord that this desire of our hearts has been given by You. We stand in Your presence, waiting moment by moment for that enabling Grace. Lord we don't take for granted all the people you have brought into our lives. May all those in our life, our circumstance, our heart and our prayers be touched and changed forever by Your Life. Thank You Lord that You hear our prayer and that it was birthed by the gift of faith and it is creative and will accomplish Your Glory both here and now and throughout all eternity. In Jesus  name I pray.

Doctrine

Colossians 1:18 And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning,
the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.

Doctrinal differences always arise from our judgments, and not from the Spirit of God; for God is love, and there is an attraction in Jesus Christ which draws men together.  The closer we are drawn to Jesus, the greater the attraction toward Him.  Therefore, as the Lord’s children draw closer to Jesus, they must of necessity be closer to each other. "That in all things He might have preeminence."

Deeper Places - Christ for the Nations

I give myself to You today
To be completely swept away
Lost inside the glory of Your love
As deep calls unto deep Oh Lord
my soul cries out for You alone
Drowned within the river of Your heart

You bring Your life to my soul
I’m alive in You
Let Your Kingdom shine through my life
I want more of You

I wanna go to the deeper places
Deeper places Lord
To know the dreams of Your heart
I wanna find all the secret places
The hidden places Lord
until there’s nothing left to know
I’ll be completely Yours

Awaken every part of me
The buried places I can’t see
Ignite my heart with love uncompromised
Your Presence is my sole desire
I long to burn with holy fire
And demonstrate Your power here on earth

I lift Your Name up
I lift Your Name up
I lift Your Name up
Jesus be glorified

 

If You Are Wise

“Then the Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to tend and keep it.”  Genesis 2:15 NKJV

Each of us should set apart a special “place” (Garden) in which to commune with the Lord.  This prepared place should be an area within our home that is both dedicated and decorated to be conducive to His presence.

“But you, when you pray, enter into your closet, (this set apart place that you have created for the Lord) and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father which is in secret; and your Father, who sees in secret, shall reward you openly.”  Matthew 6:6

If you are wise you will find a place in your home to be consecrated for this higher purpose. It can be a room or part of a room or simply a chair that you have chosen and set apart as a special place for prayer and communion.  This requires an action your part to establish this “garden” (closet).  Then, you can invite the Lord to come and commune.

Dwell - Aaron Keyes

Draw Near

“Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies having been washed with pure water.”  Hebrews 10:22

Our bodies will be washed with pure water.(Eph 5:26)  The Word of God will wash our physical being (Soul) as well as our spiritual being.  The Lord wants the totality of our being.  If we think too much along the lines of the natural (carnal mind), we get an idea that we are not very spiritual.  II Corinthians 4:7 tells us, “But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, so that the excellency of the power may be of God and not of us.”  Then we are told, “Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering for He is faithful who promised” (Hebrews 10:23).

We are to begin making a confession of hope, of that which He is beginning to do.  As we begin to see the dawning of the new day that is before us, and have a hope that rises up within us, we are to cling to this hope. It is this hope (Christ in us) that will anchor our soul as The Lord prepares us for His Kingdom. This is the testimony of the overcomer.

His Ways

How does the Holy Spirit actually baptize and cleanse us through fire?
What actually happens in our lives? It requires an adjusting process,
because the adjusting of our thought patterns ("having the mind of Christ")
that He has to put us through is very involved. It's not that we are deliberately,
willfully rebelling against the Lord Christ Jesus, it's just that He knows that our
thought patterns have to be changed ("our thoughts are not His thoughts"),
that our nature has to be cleansed ("partakers of the divine nature"), that our
own self and our own ideas must be crucified. Yet, for our sake and because of
His love for us, He must do it in a way that does not destroy us but edifies, us.
So, He confronts us with situations where there's no way out except for us to cry
unto Him for help. He does help us, and as He does, we learn not to depend upon
our own ideas and thinking and abilities (His ways not our ways) but become
progressively dependent upon Him and upon Him alone. We learn this step-by-step,
first in little things, and eventually in matters of our very being. Bringing
every thought captive to the obedience of Christ. Having become
His Bride (dependence) and His Son (Authority) so that on that day we will be
found living and moving and having our being in Him (wise virgins).

Prayer Request for Brent

Dearest praying family of God around the world.
I ask that you all agree with me in prayer
that The Lords life would be released and bring
healing to our brother in The Lord.
His name is Brent. Thank you all for taking time
to hold him before The Lord in your hearts and prayers.

Thank You Lord for Your servant Brent.
He belongs to You.
We bring him before Your throne of Grace.
Fully trusting You with his life.
Thank You Lord for The Spirit of Life
that is being released by our prayers
to bring healing to Brent.
May Your Life touch Him,
Spirit, Soul and Body in Jesus name we pray.

The Kingdom of Heaven

 

“The kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force.”  Matthew 11:12

To enter The  kingdom of heaven we must be armed with the will to suffer. To catch a glimpse of

His kingdom we must be willing to destroy the idols that stand between us and this pearl of great price.  
This word of the kingdom cant occupy the same “heart space” as idols. It is as a fire and that will consume
and break down the idols without, in order to bear this testimony within. Everything must be placed on the altar.
Whatever strives to be equal with God must be broken down. If we walk in the light we know what an idol is.
Having spent time seeking The Lord we discern the things outside the Lord as idols. Wherever the Lord finds
this kind of intense hunger and desire (a wholehearted pressing after God and spiritual things) He releases faith. 
Faith grows and grace is poured out.  The spirit is liberated from the warped expression of the souls condition.
The flame of faith will burn bright. The Holy Spirit will then be poured out upon us. The filling of the Holy Spirit
is the result of standing on the right ground. This is the spirit of The Overcomer that presses into the kingdom
having set aside every weight. This is a breaking through by force into the kingdom realm.

You Wont Relent - Johnny Lo & Yami Lee

You won't relent until You have it all, My heart is Yours
I'll set You as a seal upon my heart as a seal upon my arm
For there is love a that is as strong as death Jealousy, demanding as the grave
And many waters cannot quench this love You won't relent until You, have it all
My heart is Yours You won't relent until You, have it all
My heart is Yours Come be the fire inside of me Come be the flame upon my heart
Come be the fire inside of me Until You and I are One
I don't want to talk about You Like You're not in the room
I want to look right at You I want to sing right to You
You won't relent until You have it all, My heart is Yours

Issues of the Heart

 

As our walk with The Lord progresses we are tested concerning the choices and decisions that we make.  We will be tested concerning the motives of our heart which provoke the things that manifest as right or wrong.  It is not enough to deny only the “thing,” we must overcome the very principle that allows it to abide within us and assert itself.

Only those who intensely hunger for spiritual reality will endure this process and allow the Lord to deal with the “issues of the heart” so in “that day,” having become an overcomer, they will be found in the Throne, seated with Jesus.
