Listen

Listen to the sounds all about you. Each one unique, identifiable to me. You too carry my uniqueness, created in my likeness. Follow the clues I leave for you. They will help lead you into your pathway of my direction.

How do you meaure-up?

The purpose of my instruction is that all believers would be filled with love that comes from a pure heart, a clear conscience, and genuine faith. 1 Timothy 1:5 (NLT)

where might you fit?

In his grace, God has given us different gifts for doing certain things well. So if God has given you the ability to prophesy, speak out with as much faith as God has given you. If your gift is serving others, serve them well. If you are a teacher, teach well. If your gift is to encourage others, be encouraging. If it is giving, give generously. If God has given you leadership ability, take the responsibility seriously. And if you have a gift for showing kindness to others, do it gladly. ‭‭Romans‬ ‭12:6-8‬ ‭(NLT‬‬)

acknowledge him

Let the oppressed eat and be filled! Let those who seek his help praise the Lord! May you live forever! Let all the people of the earth acknowledge the Lord and turn to him! Let all the nations worship you! For the Lord is king and rules over the nations. All of the thriving people of the earth will join the celebration and worship; all those who are descending into the grave will bow before him, including those who cannot preserve their lives. ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭22:26-29‬ ‭(NET)

Don’t be afraid

Awaken your inner self, know the seasons and the times. It is not a time for fear, but of moving when I prompt you. I will place the words within your mouth. I will direct you as you follow after my ways. My protection will shield you from the lies and arrows of the enemy. Then in the midst of the assembly, the Lord’s Spirit came upon Jachaziel son of Zechariah, son of Benaiah, son of Jeiel, son of Mattaniah, a Levite and descendant of Asaph. He said: “Pay attention, all you people of Judah, residents of Jerusalem, and King Jehoshaphat! This is what the Lord says to you: ‘Don’t be afraid and don’t panic  because of this huge army! For the battle is not yours, but God’s. ‭‭2 Chronicles‬ ‭20:14-15‬ ‭(NET)

the place of answers

May the Lord answer you when you are in trouble; may the God of Jacob make you secure! May he send you help from his temple; from Zion may he give you support! May he take notice of your offerings; may he accept your burnt sacrifice! (Selah) May he grant your heart’s desire; may he bring all your plans to pass! Then we will shout for joy over your victory; we will rejoice in the name of our God! May the Lord grant all your requests! Now I am sure that the Lord will deliver his chosen king; he will intervene for him from his holy heavenly temple, and display his mighty ability to deliver. Some trust in chariots and others in horses, but we depend on the Lord our God. They will fall down, but we will stand firm. The Lord will deliver the king; he will answer us when we call to him for help! ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭20:1-9‬ ‭(NET‬‬)

recognition

Awaken yourself. Don’t be caught in the distractions. Take the time to listen for me. Learn the ways I am communicating with you. Feel the reality of my presence. Taste the sweetness of my smile. I am ever-present. Recognize my gentle wooing.

Reminder

Here is a reminder from July 2011 The words I have spoken are unchanged. They are as my name, unchangeable. I have written my ways into your being. They are inscribed upon your heart before you were known by others. They will come to pass as you continue to walk in my light. Within you is a great light. It is a light to affect the world, dispelling darkness where you go. You shall speak my truth in love and it will liberate the captives. Healing and wholeness will appear where once was only desperation and fear. You are my people, created in my image. Go in peace, setting free those held in bondage. For I am the Lord your God, Who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar and Who by rebuke restrains it—the Lord of hosts is His name. And I have put My words in your mouth and have covered you with the shadow of My hand, that I may fix the [new] heavens as a tabernacle and lay the foundations of a [new] earth and say to Zion, You are My people. Isaiah 51:15-16 (AMP )

come closer

I have known you from the beginning. Each day I await you to seek me. I hide in plain site so as not to discourage your seeking. Look for me. Come closer and I’ll bless you with my presence. My wisdom and love flows over you, softening you.

nothing hidden

But there is nothing [so carefully] concealed that it will not be revealed, nor so hidden that it will not be made known. For that reason, whatever you have said in the dark will be heard in the light, and what you have whispered behind closed doors will be proclaimed on the housetops. ‭‭Luke‬ ‭12:2-3‬ (‭AMP)

recieving

Learn to distinguish my voice from the others. Know without a doubt My way and follow my leading. Fear not, but walk in faith as I guide you. Ask and I will show you the way.

the glory of Him

When Solomon had finished praying, fire came down from heaven and consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices, and the glory of the Lord filled the temple. The priests were unable to enter the house of the Lord, because the glory of the Lord had filled it. When all the Israelites saw the fire coming down and the glory of the Lord above the temple, they bowed down on the pavement with their faces to the ground, and they worshiped and gave thanks to the Lord: For He is good; His loving devotion endures forever. ‭‭2 Chronicles‬ ‭7:1-3‬ ‭(BSB) ‬‬

prayer of Solomon

Prayer of Solomon as Ark brought into the Temple Now, my God, may Your eyes be open and Your ears attentive to the prayer offered in this place. Now therefore, arise, O Lord God, and enter Your resting place, You and the ark of Your might. May Your priests, O Lord God, be clothed with salvation, and may Your godly ones rejoice in goodness. O Lord God, do not reject Your anointed one. Remember Your loving devotion to Your servant David. 2 Chronicles 6:40-42 (BSB)

new boldness

Awaken yourself and begin to use your cents/senses. I will draw you into the places for you to grow and flourish. I will open new areas for you to learn and explore. Let there be no fear, but new boldness as you speak my name and what I give you to say.

learning to trust

Learn to trust in me. Move forward in what I am saying to you. And God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] said unto Moshe [He Who Draws Out Of The Waters]: Ehyeh Asher Ehyeh [I am/will be what I am/will be] and he said, “Thus shall youi say unto the people of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God]: ‘Ehyeh [I Am or I Will Be] …has sent me unto you.”” ‭‭Exodus‬ ‭3:14‬ ‭(New Messianic Version‬‬) God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ‘I AM has sent me to you.’” God also told Moses, “Say to the Israelites, ‘The Lord, the God of your fathers —the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob—has sent me to you.’ This is My name forever, and this is how I am to be remembered in every generation. Go, assemble the elders of Israel and say to them, ‘The Lord, the God of your fathers —the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob—has appeared to me and said: I have surely attended to you and have seen what has been done to you in Egypt. And I

His promise

If you love Me, you will keep My commandments. I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may be with you forever; that is the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it does not see Him or know Him, but you know Him because He abides with you and will be in you. I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. ‭‭John‬ ‭14:15-18‬ ‭(NASB)

ask and respond

Ask for directions and be ready to receive them. Follow-through with what you are given. Don’t hesitate.

a look at faith

So it was not by obeying the laws in Moses’ Teachings that Abraham or his descendants received the promise that he would inherit the world. Rather, he received this promise through God’s approval that comes by faith. If those who obey Moses’ Teachings are the heirs, then faith is useless and the promise is worthless. The laws in Moses’ Teachings bring about anger. But where those laws don’t exist, they can’t be broken. Therefore, the promise is based on faith so that it can be a gift. Consequently, the promise is guaranteed for every descendant, not only for those who are descendants by obeying Moses’ Teachings but also for those who are descendants by believing as Abraham did. He is the father of all of us, ‭‭Romans‬ ‭4:13-16a‬ ‭(GW)

God is with us

But as for us, Yahweh is our God, and we have not forsaken him. We have priests serving Yahweh, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites in their work; and they burn to Yahweh every morning and every evening burnt offerings and sweet incense. They also set the show bread in order on the pure table; a nd the lamp stand of gold with its lamps, to burn every evening; for we keep the instruction of Yahweh our God, but you have forsaken him. Behold, God is with us at our head, and his priests with the trumpets of alarm to sound an alarm against you. Children of Israel, don’t fight against Yahweh, the God of your fathers; for you will not prosper. ‭‭2 Chronicles‬ ‭13:10-12‬ ‭(WEB‬‬)

directions

Be my voice and allow my ways to guide you. Walk in the ways I show you. Reach out in truth and kindness. Learn my strength and be strong in me, my reflection. Let me guide you through the pathways and avoid the traps my enemy has set for you. Proclaim my truth in love.

Your opportunity

Your opportunity to draw near is now. Sit in my presence and be changed. Let my joy cover you. Sense what I am conveying to you. Let my healing ways overflow you.  Taste my goodness and be filled.

consequences...

Consider the consequences of our attitudes and actions. David said to Gad, I am in distress. Let me fall, I pray, into Yahweh’s hand; for his mercies are very great. Don’t let me fall into man’s hand. So Yahweh sent a pestilence on Israel, and seventy thousand men of Israel fell. God sent an angel to Jerusalem to destroy it. As he was about to destroy, Yahweh saw, and he relented of the disaster, and said to the destroying angel, “It is enough. Now withdraw your hand.” Yahweh’s angel was standing by the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite. David lifted up his eyes, and saw Yahweh’s angel standing between earth and the sky, having a drawn sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders, clothed in sackcloth, fell on their faces. David said to God, Isn’t it I who commanded the people to be counted? It is even I who have sinned and done very wickedly; but these sheep, what have they done? Please let your hand, O Yahweh my God, be against me, and against my fath

Daniel"s vision

I saw in the night visions, and behold, there came with the clouds of the sky one like a son of man, and he came even to the ancient of days, and they brought him near before him. There was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all the peoples, nations, and languages should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed. ‭‭Daniel‬ ‭7:13-14‬ ‭(WEB‬‬)

what do you see?

The angel who talked with me came again, and wakened me, as a man who is wakened out of his sleep. He said to me, What do you see? I said, I have seen, and behold, a lamp stand all of gold, with its bowl on the top of it, and its seven lamps on it; there are seven pipes to each of the lamps, which are on the top of it; and two olive trees by it, one on the right side of the bowl, and the other on the left side of it. I answered and spoke to the angel who talked with me, saying, What are these, my Lord? Then the angel who talked with me answered me, Don’t you know what these are? I said, No, my Lord. Then he answered and spoke to me, saying, This is Yahweh’s word to Zerubbabel, saying, ‘Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ says Yahweh of Armies. Who are you, great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you are a plain; and he will bring out the capstone with shouts of ‘Grace, grace, to it!’ ‭‭Zechariah‬ ‭4:1-7‬ ‭(WEB‬‬)

there is no other

For Yahweh who created the heavens, the God who formed the earth and made it, who established it and didn’t create it a waste, who formed it to be inhabited says: “I am Yahweh; and there is no other. I have not spoken in secret, in a place of the land of darkness. I didn’t say to the offspring of Jacob, ‘Seek me in vain.’ I, Yahweh, speak righteousness. I declare things that are right.” ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭45:18-19‬ (‭WEB‬‬)

I am Yahweh

I form the light, and create darkness. I make peace, and create calamity. I am Yahweh, who does all these things. Rain, you heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness. Let the earth open, that it may produce salvation, and let it cause righteousness to spring up with it. I, Yahweh, have created it. Isaiah 45:7-8 (WEB)

Recount my ways

Recount my ways. My hand of direction and protection have guided you. I have demonstrated my names for you in the situations you have faced and those yet to unfold. Refresh yourself in my strength. Let your actions and your words be what I give you. Elijah said to all the people, “Come near to me!”; and all the people came near to him. He repaired Yahweh’s altar that had been thrown down. Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, to whom Yahweh’s word came, saying, “Israel shall be your name.” With the stones he built an altar in Yahweh’s name. He made a trench around the altar, large enough to contain two seahs of seed. He put the wood in order, and cut the bull in pieces, and laid it on the wood. He said, “Fill four jars with water, and pour it on the burnt offering, and on the wood.” He said, “Do it a second time”; and they did it the second time. He said, “Do it a third time”; and they did it the third time. The water ran around the alt

the light continues to go forth

In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was formless and empty. Darkness was on the surface of the deep and God’s Spirit was hovering over the surface of the waters. God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. ‭‭Genesis‬ ‭1:1-3‬ ‭(WEB‬‬)

look

Look for me and you will find me. I am waiting for you to search with excitement. Find my joy in all you do. Bless those around you.

with ears to hear

Listen for me and I will prompt you. Watch what you are sowing as the seeds may grow and bring their harvest. Sow with the intention of harvest and not just to hear yourself speak. After a large crowd had gathered from the people who kept coming to him from town after town, Yeshua told this parable: “A farmer went out to sow his seed. As he sowed, some fell along the path and was stepped on, and the birds flying around ate it up. Some fell on rock; and after it sprouted, it dried up from lack of moisture. Some fell in the midst of thorns, and the thorns grew up with it and choked it. But some fell into rich soil, and grew, and produced a hundred times as much as had been sown.” After saying this, he called out, “Whoever has ears to hear with, let him hear!”” ‭‭Luke 8:4-8‬ ‭(CJB)

how is your fruit?

But the fruit of the Spirit [the result of His presence within us] is love [unselfish concern for others], joy, [inner] peace, patience [not the ability to wait, but how we act while waiting], kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such things there is no law. If we [claim to] live by the [Holy] Spirit, we must also walk by the Spirit [with personal integrity, godly character, and moral courage—our conduct empowered by the Holy Spirit]. ‭‭Galatians‬ ‭5:22-23, 25‬ ‭(AMP‬‬)

the day of sevens 07/07

On the seventh day God ended His work which He had done. And He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done. Then God honored the seventh day and made it holy, because in it He rested from all His work which He had done. Genesis 2:2-3 (NLV) So Noah, with his sons, his wife, and his sons’ wives, went into the ark because of the waters of the flood. ‭‭Genesis‬ ‭7:7‬ ‭(NKJV‬‬) Therefore I will look to the Lord; I will wait for the God of my salvation; My God will hear me. ‭‭Micah‬ ‭7:7‬ (‭NKJV‬‬) Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭7:7-8‬ ‭(NKJV‬‬) For I wish that all men were even as I myself. ut each one has his own gift from God, one in this manner and another in that. ‭‭I Corinthians‬ ‭7:7‬ ‭(NKJV)‬‬

imparting

I am bringing things to your mind; those experiences, dreams and visions. They remain. Their message has not changed. Walk through them once again, so I may impart truth. They are yet alive.

come to me

Don’t be distracted by the good things in your life but, attune yourself to my leading. Spend time with me. Let not decisions weigh upon you. Allow me to influence and guide you in your every-day walk. Come to me and sit in my presence. Let my healing touch you.

awaken

For all who are allowing themselves to be led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. Romans 8:14 (AMP) Awaken. My hand of direction and assurance is upon you. Don’t be led by fear or indecision, but walk where I lead you. Be covered in my peace and acceptance. Learn the leading of my Spirit.

simple direction

Do not speak in the ears of a fool, For he will despise the [godly] wisdom of your words. Do not move the ancient landmark [at the boundary of the property] And do not go into the fields of the fatherless [to take what is theirs] ‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭23:9-10‬ ‭(AMP) So they got up early in the morning and went out into the Wilderness of Tekoa; and as they went out, Jehoshaphat stood and said, “Hear me, O Judah, and you inhabitants of Jerusalem! Believe and trust in the Lord your God and  you will be established (secure). Believe and trust in His prophets and succeed.” 2 Chronicles 20:20 (AMP)

Finding

Hilkiah the high priest said to Shaphan the scribe, “I have found the Book of the Law in the house (temple) of the Lord.” Hilkiah gave the book to Shaphan, and he read it. Shaphan the scribe came to the king and brought back word to him: “Your servants have emptied out the money that was found in the house, and have placed it in the hands of the workmen who have been appointed over the house of the Lord.” Then Shaphan the scribe told the king, “Hilkiah the priest has given me a book.” And Shaphan read it [aloud] before the king.” 2 Kings 22:8-10 (AMP)

simple directions

Arise [from spiritual depression to a new life], shine [be radiant with the glory and brilliance of the Lord]; for your light has come, And the glory and brilliance of the Lord has risen upon you. For in fact, darkness will cover the earth And deep darkness will cover the peoples; But the Lord will rise upon you [Jerusalem] And His glory and brilliance will be seen on you. Nations will come to your light, And kings to the brightness of your rising. Lift up your eyes around you and see; They all gather together, they come to you. Your sons will come from far away, And your daughters will be looked after at their side. Then you will see and be radiant, And your heart will tremble [with joy] and rejoice Because the abundant wealth of the seas will be brought to you, The wealth of the nations will come to you. ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭60:1-5‬ ‭(AMP‬‬)
Question:  If you stop thru this blog, would you let me know? Any response/input you feel will be appreciated.

Who is your trust factor?

Hezekiah trusted in the Lord, the God of Israel. There was no one like him among all the kings of Judah, either before or after his time. He remained faithful to the Lord in everything, and he carefully obeyed all the commands the Lord had given Moses. So the Lord was with him, and Hezekiah was successful in everything he did. He revolted against the king of Assyria and refused to pay him tribute. ‭‭2 Kings‬ ‭18:5-7‬ ‭(NLT‬‬)
