I read a poem recently that made me sit back and reflect on why God loves me so much. He gave me His WORD! Here is the poem by Andre Rabe ..."Long before the first line of scripture was penned on papyrus scroll, the Word, unwritten, existed as the mind of God. Before the books were gathered collated as sacred text, the Word, intangible, invisible,was planning, was ordering the ages that were to come. This Word predates the Bible, this Word predates creation, this Word is alive and active and speaking still today."  Psalm 23 says "He leads me beside still waters, and restores my soul" or "by the waters of reflection my soul REMEMBERS who I am." It's not so much revelation as it is REMEMBERING... "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you..."(Jer 1:5)

Isaiah 40:3 "The voice of one crying in the wilderness: Prepare the way of the Lord; Make straight in the desert a highway for our God." This is a verse that prophesied John the Baptist and His ministry of calling people to repentance; His prophecy was not a road project; but to prepare people's hearts!  (refer to John 14:6 "The Way"). As believers & lovers of Yeshua, we are familiar with the concept
of "preparing the way of the Lord'. God's perspective toward us is for us "to see" something about our self  that we don't normally see or are open to. His strategy has taught us that when it comes to growth and change, love prepares the way! Yeshua is ALWAYS preparing our way with love. His every response to us is love, nothing but love! When we allow ourselves to open up completely and begin to feel that love; we open up to the growth and change that Yeshua is gently preparing us for! Love is "The Way" that not only takes …

"Blessed is the man who endures temptation; for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him." (James 1:12) Love inspires faith! No one promises us an easy life. In one way or another, we (believers) will have temptations, challenges or trials. We will face & go through crisis situations. The question is whether it's good for us or not. We all build a security framework around us. It's like building a structure & feeling good about we created. However, when something goes wrong, when there is a crisis, it breaks the false sense of security. Why is this?  God wants us to trust Him, and crisis helps us to grow up, to mature through the difficulty. The pressures we experience helps us to lean on God, to be open to the changes He wants to bring to our lives. Without crisis we could not grow; we would become stagnant & weak. These seasons of trials, temptations & tribulation can be more than…

Becoming the bride is the experience of the over-comer, one who has paid the price to become the bride and has endured & persevered to the end and has never given up! Becoming the bride is not a salvation issue, it's about an ongoing, intimate, loving eternal relationship with the King of kings. It is a daily dying experience that moves us to perfection with Him completing the work. He will only complete us with our permission and with our obedience. The beauty we experience is worth the price! Revelation 19:7 "let us rejoice and exalt and give Him glory because the wedding celebration of the Lamb has come. And His bride has made herself ready."

While "in the spirit" today I received a download on what we (the church and Americans) should be focused on... The 1st thing I experienced is identifying with what happened in the 1st church. They(the 120) were celebrating a feast of the Lord, "Day of First Fruits" or "Feast of Weeks".They had been praying together for ten days(they were with the risen Christ for 40 days before He ascended & they were in Jerusalem to wait & pray. Pentecost is 50 days after Passover, so.....10 days.) In Acts 1:14 it is recorded, "All of them were UNITED in prayer, gripped with one passion, interceding night and day."In Acts 2:1 it says they were together in "one accord" in agreement, one mind & purpose, unanimous, having group UNITY! We, as "the church" should be praying like this in UNITY especially now with what is going on our country & the world. Praying the frequency of "the wonderful works of God" (Acts 2:11) a…
