closer to me

Connect with me. Soak in my presence and see what I have for you. Receive the healing you need. Allow me to reach into you darkness. I am the light. Ask of me and expect me to answer. It may come in your dreams, circumstances or by an impression. Hang around those who hang around with me. Allow them to influence your thinking, to lead you closer to me. I am answering you; each prayer and question. Seek me out, find my answer. Learn my ways so you may instruct others. Turn over each rock and see if I am not there. Plant seed and watch it grow. Become bread for those starving. Come closer to me. I am awaiting our time.

what/who is your source?

Jesus: Simon, son of Jonah, your knowledge is a mark of blessing. For you didn’t learn this truth from your friends or from teachers or from sages you’ve met on the way. You learned it from My Father in heaven. This is why I have called you Peter (rock): for on this rock I will build My church. The church will reign triumphant even at the gates of hell. Matthew 16:17-18 (VOICE)

will you believe?

“If I told you earthly things and you do not believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things?”   ‭John‬ ‭3:12‬ ‭(NASB)‬‬

I will enable you

When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them.  Acts 2:1-4 (NIV)   Become what you were always intended to become, as the Sons of the Holy one.   Allow me to again come and blow over you; to be covered in my breath, to be encased in my power. I am the expression which you lack. Be fulfilled in me. I will lead and build you into the image of the Christ. I was present in the beginning, watching over what had come and what will be. Allow me to fan you into a righteous fire so the world may be amazed.  I will grant you wisdom of speech and enable you to reach those you will meet.

the sabbath

“Jesus said to them, "The Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath.”  ‭‭Mark‬ ‭2:27‬ ‭(NASB‬)‬

of what do you speak?

For a man’s heart determines his speech. Matthew 12:34b (TLB)

what to pursue…

Pursue the greater gifts, and let me tell you of a more excellent way— love  1 Corinthians 12:31 (Voice)

Stand up

Therefore My people shall know what my name is and what it means;  therefore they shall know in that day that I am he who speaks, and behold, I am!   Isaiah 52:6 Stand up and arise and I will speak to you. I will place mu unction upon you.  I will give you direction to speak. I will show you faces in the night season.  Later you will recognize them. Speak my heart of acceptance to them. Do not fear them. They are in pain from the decision and the wrath of others.  I hold no wrath for them. You are to speak my peace and healing into their midst.

rise from the dust

Rise from the dust, O Jerusalem. Sit in a place of honor. Remove the chains of slavery from your neck, O captive daughter of Zion.   Isaiah 52:2 (NLT) I see the weight of your worry. I see it’s affect upon your soul.  Look away from the issues. Turn your eyes upon me. Look into my face. Experience the love I have for you. Eat of my goodness.  Allow me to draw you closer; to anoint you with my peace and wholeness.

many versions, same message

…many versions, same message, but have we learned the message? Never stop praying. 1 Thessalonians 5:17 (NLV) Never stop praying. 1 Thessalonians 5:17 (NLT) constantly pray.  1 Thessalonians 5:17 (NET) pray without ceasing. 1 Thessalonians 5:17 (NRSV) pray without ceasing. 1 Thessalonians 5:17 (NASV) pray at all time. 1 Thessalonians 5:17 (GNT) pray constantly and   1 Thessalonians 5:17 (Voice) Be unceasing in prayer [praying perseveringly]  1 Thessalonians 5:17 (Amp)  

A look at “you”…

Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it. 1 Corinthians 12:27 (NIV) You are to be doing: “… to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up. Ephesians 4:12 (NIV)

what are you experiencing?

keep seeking the things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Keep thinking about things above, not things on the earth.  Colossians 3:1b-2 (NET)

wisdom for this day

Seek his will in all you do,     and he will show you which path to take. Proverbs 3:6 (NLT)

Thoughts/reflection on Baltimore

Baltimore, from the Irish Bale au Ti Moin, the town of clergy, to a another town torn apart by the sprit of lawlessness. From a radio sports broadcast from today (04/29) “Baltimore erupts for six runs in the first inning, and winning 8-2.”  This was the first major league game played with fan at a stadium.  The doors were locked due to the civil unrest of the previous three days. Some spiritualists define the oriole as having the ability to see how life is woven together, or in the case of recent days, how the fabric is stretched to the point of damage. I'll allow father to guide you in the reflection and revelation.

For the day(s) of worship

But you, O Yahweh, are highly honored forever.  Now look at your enemies, O Yahweh. Now look at your enemies.  They disappear, and all troublemakers are scattered. But you make me as strong as a wild bull, and soothing lotion is poured on me.  My eyes gloat over those who spy on me.  My ears hear the cries of evildoers attacking me.   Psalm 92:8-11 (NOG)

examination

In the same way every good tree produces good fruit, but a rotten tree produces bad fruit.  A good tree cannot produce bad fruit, and a rotten tree cannot produce good fruit.  Any tree that fails to produce good fruit is cut down and thrown into a fire.  Matthew 17:17-19 (NOG) Yes, the way to identify a tree or a person is by the kind of fruit that is produced. Measure the motives of your heart. Examine yourself in the light of my love.  At Passover the lamb was examined, to be found perfect. Even I was publically and brutally examined. No imperfection was found. Stand in the light of my love. In me there is life; In me there is no imperfection.  Partake freely of my fruit.

on the shoreline

Early in the morning, Jesus stood on the shore, but the disciples did not realize that it was Jesus.     John 21:4 (NIV) Wherever you go, He will search for you. He sees you as you go about your daily chores. He is there.

Word for James

In the past you've had some highly exciting experiences following after God but now you feel defeated.  You've gone back to what you once knew in the past.  Jesus is calling your name aloud. He is not done, but has much more for you to do.  You have not disappointed him. He knows your heart and the plan he has for you.

Here and there

I am here. The thing you are running from meets you when you arrive.  I am yet there too.

listening to me

"Oh, that My people would listen to Me, that Israel would walk in My ways!  I would soon subdue their enemies, and turn My hand against their adversaries... He would have fed them also with the finest of wheat; and with honey from the rock I would have satisfied you."   (Psalm 81:13-14, 16 (NKJV)
