Who I am In Christ! A Purity Revolution!

The Love of the Father!

I am a PK- Preacher's Kid. I grew up in church all my life, I praise God for my upbringing, but I rejected God because I saw so much hypocrisy in church. It's not a good excuse now that I look back on it. The real issue was I learned how to do church, and I learned how to play the role but I never had a relationship with God.

I rebelled and turned to world. I found myself in sexual immorality. Sex was my drug of choice. Just like a crack head I did anything to have sex even when it meant compromising my identity. In Feb of 2002 I found out I was pregnant. After my daughter was born I slowed down for a while. After her father left, I got depressed and that lifestyle became my fall back. It was were I found comfort.But it did not last.

Hurt after Hurt and chasing my "baby daddy" wanting him to love me got old. I dealt with shame and guilt. This whole time I was living a totally different way by day. I was a college student, a dorm room RA, a leader on my campus and I was getting rewards for all my "great success". But the whole time I dying on the inside. ENOUGH was ENOUGH!

On September 23, 2003 I made up my mind to really give my life to Jesus. My daughter turned one years old that year. I vowed to God my body, my mind, and my heart. I took a vow of spiritual virginity. I asked God to restore me and to wash me of all my guilt and shame. I walked away from friends and I began to run after God with everything in me. I knew that the love I wanted could only come from the Father and the best dad for Mary would be Jesus.

But God’s plans are so much BIGGER. As I worked in the Kingdom and I set my eyes on the Father. I learned what real Love looked like. I learned what the word had to say about purity and righteousness. I made a vow that I would not date and I would wait until God sent me a Man of God. On September 26th, 2008 God said to me I will give you my love in the heart of Man that will love you as I love my church. He will show you the love that I have for you. I will give you a man that will be a father and Godly example for your daughter. I will give you a KING. On August 15th, 2009 God gave me my promise….. Ian “Joshua” Walker (who was a virgin!!!!!!!!!!)

It is nothing but the grace and mercy of God! The moment I released what I wanted to God and said nothing else matters if I don’t know you Lord … He released my blessing. God you are SOOOOOOO good.

I stand as a testimony of the Love of the Father! His love covers; His love washes; His love is fulfilling; His love never fails!

My desire is that Youth all over this nation will rise up and take a stand for Purity. My ministry is birthed from a place of restoration. I like to say that I am the Woman at the well! He filled my thirst with a greater Love. Then became the woman that poured her alabaster box at His feet! I gave him my all and His reward was greater than I could ever imagine.

That is why I host Purity Camps. On December 3rd, 2011 I will be hosting Purity Camp 2011 at the Furnace 309 Holman Drive in Garner, NC.

The theme this year is "RIOT - A Purity Revolution". Our youth are being pulled away from God by the temptations in the world. Purity Camp is a time to gather and encourage our youth to turn away from the world & keep their affections towards Jesus.

This event is for youth and young adults ages 15-25(College Students above 25-30 welcome). It will be a day full of deliverance and freedom for the youth involved.

I Signed Up to Die...Or Maybe Not?

For almost 300 hundred years, to be a Christian meant persecution, suffering, and often death. But now we get saved because we want our lives to be better. We think salvation means a new car, a new house, a husband, friends, or that all our troubles will end.

Almost 300 hundred years ago people signed up to die for Christ. The promise for their salvation was their head cut off, or them being stoned or hung.

I was thinking about this and I thought "Lord what did I sign up for?" Why do I call you my Lord and Savior? Is it because I want you do "great" things for me? Will I only stand for you and speak truth when everyone around me agrees with me?

In the times to come the "wheat" will be separated from the "tare". It will be evident who stands for Jesus and his ways and who stands for the enemy. (the lukewarm will be spit out)

Right now many Christians in America are comfortable with God because their needs are being supplied and no one is "head hunting" them. But times are approaching that the world will kill us for what we believe in. Our businesses will be shut down for what we believe. Pastors will be arrested and charged for preaching against homosexuality. We will be placed in jail and be on trial for the things we believe.

Who will stand during this time or who will back down.

Who will go to jail for standing against abortion and the homosexual agenda. Who will look in the face of real opposition and STAND for HOLINESS AND TRUTH.

Only time will tell why you Signed up to be a Christian.

Col 1: 10-14
10) so as to walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to him, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God. 11) May you be strengthened with all power, according to his glorious might, for all endurance and patience with joy, 12) giving thanks[a] to the Father, who has qualified you[b] to share in the inheritance of the saints in light. 13) He has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son, 14) in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.

Time the gap in Eternity...

Time is just a measuring tool and it has a expiration date. Are you living your time here in the earth for temporary pleasures or are you living for eternity.

Live is but a vapor... Here today and gone tomorrow. what are you living for?

What profits a man to gain the whole world and loose his soul?

The Parable of the Rich Fool
Luke 12:13-21
Someone in the crowd said to him, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me.”

Jesus replied, “Man, who appointed me a judge or an arbiter between you?” Then he said to them, “Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; life does not consist in an abundance of possessions.”

And he told them this parable: “The ground of a certain rich man yielded an abundant harvest. 17 He thought to himself, ‘What shall I do? I have no place to store my crops.’

“Then he said, ‘This is what I’ll do. I will tear down my barns and build bigger ones, and there I will store my surplus grain. 19 And I’ll say to myself, “You have plenty of grain laid up for many years. Take life easy; eat, drink and be merry.”’

“But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your life will be demanded from you. Then who will get what you have prepared for yourself?’

“This is how it will be with whoever stores up things for themselves but is not rich toward God.”

Time is just a gap in eternity.... Are you living for the gap or are you living for eternity. When we focus on the gap we place our trust in temporary things. We focus on "me and mine". We fit God into our schedule whenever it's convenient. Our praise is determined by how much stuff we have.

Do not live foolishly! Live for ETERNITY!

TRUST

Real trust is when you realize that you have no control!

We say that we trust God but when have we really released everything to God and left it there with Him to take care of it? Without faith it is impossible to please God!

Do you Trust GOD? How much did you try to control today?....




Matthew 6: 25-34
Do Not Worry 25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? 26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life[e]?
28 “And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29 Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 30 If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith? 31 So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

Who will arise & take their place?

In Romans 8:19 it says "The creation waits in eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed."

The Earth is waiting for the sons and daughters of the Lord to arise and take their place.

We are in the beginning of the end time birth pains. Mark 13:7-8. "When you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be earthquakes in various places, and famines. These are the beginning of birth pains."

It is important that we understand the hour that we are in. It is the last days and we as the body of Christ must stand and take our place in the earth. We are called to be salt and the light of the world.

It's time for the church to arise and get on the wall. We must watch and pray in this hour. Luke 12:35-37 “Be dressed ready for service and keep your lamps burning, like servants waiting for their master to return from a wedding banquet, so that when he comes and knocks they can immediately open the door for him. It will be good for those servants whose master finds them watching when he comes. Truly I tell you, he will dress himself to serve, will have them recline at the table and will come and wait on them."

It's time that we interpret the times. We are the servants and God is our master. He is returning to judge the way we handled all that he has entrusted us with!

It's a NOW TIME! Do not put off for tomorrow what you need to do today! "Therefore I urge you, brothers, in the view of God's mercy, to offer your body as living sacrifices, holy pleasing to God-this is your spiritual act of worship."

Who will arise & take their place on the wall?

Simply the words of Jesus

Over the next weeks I will not be posting my words or my opinion on any matter. I will be simply posting the words of Jesus and I ask you to take a journey with me. Have we really embraced what Jesus said? After it's all said and done I want to line up with his words and his words alone.....

Luke 12 (The Message)

Can't Hide Behind a Religious Mask 1-3By this time the crowd, unwieldy and stepping on each other's toes, numbered into the thousands. But Jesus' primary concern was his disciples. He said to them, "Watch yourselves carefully so you don't get contaminated with Pharisee yeast, Pharisee phoniness. You can't keep your true self hidden forever; before long you'll be exposed. You can't hide behind a religious mask forever; sooner or later the mask will slip and your true face will be known. You can't whisper one thing in private and preach the opposite in public; the day's coming when those whispers will be repeated all over town.
4-5"I'm speaking to you as dear friends. Don't be bluffed into silence or insincerity by the threats of religious bullies. True, they can kill you, but then what can they do? There's nothing they can do to your soul, your core being. Save your fear for God, who holds your entire life—body and soul—in his hands.

6-7"What's the price of two or three pet canaries? Some loose change, right? But God never overlooks a single one. And he pays even greater attention to you, down to the last detail—even numbering the hairs on your head! So don't be intimidated by all this bully talk. You're worth more than a million canaries.

8-9"Stand up for me among the people you meet and the Son of Man will stand up for you before all God's angels. But if you pretend you don't know me, do you think I'll defend you before God's angels?

10"If you bad-mouth the Son of Man out of misunderstanding or ignorance, that can be overlooked. But if you're knowingly attacking God himself, taking aim at the Holy Spirit, that won't be overlooked.

11-12"When they drag you into their meeting places, or into police courts and before judges, don't worry about defending yourselves—what you'll say or how you'll say it. The right words will be there. The Holy Spirit will give you the right words when the time comes."

We have trusted SELF too LONG!

We sing the song I give myself away but it really has not manifested in our life.
I was listening to the message from John Mulinde at IHOP. It crazy because I am sitting here thinking I am not saved!

(Rev 3:1-3)These are the words of him who holds the seven spirits[b] of God and the seven stars. I know your deeds; you have a reputation of being alive, BUT YOU ARE DEAD. 2 Wake up! Strengthen what remains and is about to die, for I have found your deeds unfinished in the sight of my God. 3 Remember, therefore, what you have received and heard; hold it fast, and repent. But if you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what time I will come to you.

It is time for us to WAKE UP! It is time for us to BEAR FRUIT! It is time for us to really LET GO OF SELF.

If we are honest many in the body of Christ are living this life for the praises of man and we give God just enough to maintain our own comfortable life.
God is searching the HEART! Not your actions and you deeds. He wants your heart.

I am writing you from the place of no reputation right now! I am jacked up! I am telling you because when I look back over my walk and even right now my heart is wicked and my thoughts and imaginations are wicked. God is crying out for us to rid our hearts and not our garments.

Joel 12-13: “return to me with all your heart, with fasting and weeping and mourning.” 13 Rend your heart and not your garments. Return to the LORD your God, for he is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and abounding in love, and he relents from sending calamity.

God is dealing with our ways and our human nature not just your actions. Many of our actions are because of the way that we think. It’s because we have convinced ourselves that God is just going to judge our actions but he knows our thoughts and our actions!

We are in a Saul moment. God is about to rip away our kingdom. That means the area of influence that we have. He is exposing the motives of the heart! We are more concerned about the people and not about the fear of the Lord. We are concerned about how the people see us. Our sin is not against man it is against God. We are doing things and ministering in human effort with self exaltation. It has nothing to do with God’s heart and God’s desire for us.

Jer 6:14: “They dress the wound of my people as though it were not serious.”

We are bleeding. We are wounded with iniquity, strife, bitterness, jealously, doubt, compromise, unbelief, anger, hatred, fear, un-forgiveness, lust and perversion. We are wounded in our minds and because we may not be acting these things out we think that it is okay but our hearts are wicked.

While our deeds are appearing holy, our hearts are wicked. I cannot tell myself enough and I can say it enough. God is really not concerned with your works as much as he is concerned with your heart.

I do not know about you but I’m tired of playing the role. I tired of doing this within myself. My human efforts will not work anymore. I want to see God and I want to go to heaven. It’s not about the temporary pleasure of sin or temporary praise of man. It’s about God seeing holiness and righteousness in us.

It’s time for us all to WAKE UP! It’s time for us TO RID ourselves of SELF! Lord Help us!

To Be Known By God is To Be LOVED BY HIM!

When someone ask me why I go so hard, this spoken word tells everything I could ever say. The bottom line is He loved me when I could not love myself. He rescued me and still till this day... NO ONE CAN LOVE ME LIKE GOD DOES and I give my life to this thing. I don't thirst for temporary pleasures anymore!

FORGIVE so that you can be pushed into your RESURRECTION STATUS!

God wants to release a Third Day experience in your life but it’s about the position of your heart. Bitterness and Hatred Kills and it’s not the other person it’s YOU.

Over the past few months I have been tested in the area of unforgivness and bitterness. It’s easy to look at the people hurting me, mishandling me, and lying on me but reality is God is saying “I’m looking at your heart”.

In Matt 26:39 before Jesus is about to be persecuted he cries out to God.
vs. 39 Going a little farther, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will.”

Jesus Christ went to the Father 2 more times. In the end His heart cry was “NOT MY WILL BUT YOUR WILL BE DONE”. A lot of times when we are about to go to our cross we get bitter and try to avoid the cross. For the next few chapters you read on to see how Jesus went to cross peacefully forsaking all for you and me. Guess what, in the last words he said “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.” (Luke 23:34)

Jesus walked in LOVE the entire time and he understood that what they were doing to him was just pushing Him to his PURPOSE and the PLAN that GOD had for Him! RESURRECTION!!!!! Luke 24:7 says “The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, be crucified and on the 3rd day be raised again.”

When we are going through we have to understand that God has a THIRD DAY PLAN for our life. It will not be easy to the flesh to be persecuted, lied on, talked about, mistreated, and abuse but when your heart is right you can look in the face of your accuser and bless them and forgive them.

When you understand that this is not until death you will keep your heart pure and undefiled. You will reject to voice of the enemy telling you to fight back; telling you defend yourself; telling you hold on to hurt and unforgivness; telling you, you have to the right to be angry. IT’S ALL A LIE! It’s a set up to cause you to miss your destiny.

The blood of Jesus is crying. “Give mercy, forgive them, for they know not what they do,” Mercy triumphs over judgment (James 2:13) We don’t realize the subtle trap of the enemy. Satan wants us to demand justice then he will be legally entitled to bring into our lives all the reaping and punishment that we deserve.

Jesus through his death and resurrection showed us how to defeat our accusers and the enemy single handedly. Jesus rose on the third day and the Holy Spirit is saying now “you will rise above the words and pain of the enemy if you walk in love completely.” Right when the enemy is rejoicing over your defeat you will rise victorious.

You may be feeling entitled to hold on to the hurt and the pain. Believe me I have been laughing that God all week. I had a whole conversation with him stating my case to Him like Jesus did in the Garden. But His answer is still the same, “Pick your cross, my plan is greater!”

(From the book on The Important of Forgiveness by John Arnott)
“Someone once told me that as a Christian I didn’t have rights anymore. This is absolutely true. The only rights we have are to be completely forgiven, to go to heaven when we die, to be a love slave to the Lord Jesus Christ and to rely completely on Him for everything.”

God is releasing the “Third Day Plan” “If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.” Luke 9:23

Have you ever noticed that in the Lord’s Prayer we pray “Forgive us our debt AS WE ALSO HAVE FORGIVEN our debtors.” Then it goes on to say “For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. BUT if you do not forgive men their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins. (Matthew 6:12;14-15)

So do not miss you destiny because you trying to get justice. FORGIVE so that you can be pushed into your RESURRECTION STATUS!

Here are some prayer points that the Holy Spirit gave me:

From Romans 12:9-21

Lord let me be sincere. Let me hate what is evil and cling to what is good

Lord restore my zeal so I can keep my spiritual fervor

Give me the grace to be joyful in hope, patient is affliction, and faithful in prayer

Give me the grace to bless those who persecute me and give me the grace to bless them and not curse

Help me not to be proud but let me willing to associate with people of low position

I will not be conceited

Give me the grace to not repay anyone evil for evil

Let me do everything in my power to live at peace with everyone

I will not seek revenge, but I will leave room for God’s wrath for it is written “It is mine to avenge, I will repay” say the Lord

ARISE Generation!

I posted this blog before but this is truly a cry NOW. 2011 is the year that a generation of young people will come out of the pit of darkness, come out of religion and tradition and really rise up and serve GOD for real!

God is Raising up a GENERATION now! God is raising up blazing ones.

Matthew 24:12-13 states that "And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold. But he who ENDURES to the end shall be saved"

Has your heart grew cold with religion and sin? Have you become so comfortable in your sin and lawlessness that you no longer house the love of God. Have you been so comfortable going back to the vomit of sin and yet calling yourself a Christian. ALERT! Your heart is growing COLD!

When I think of a cold heart, I think of DEATH! The wages of sin is death. Some people are the walking dead and just wearing a toe tag that label them a Christian. God is not mocked and He is a man that can not lie! He is coming back for those that endure. He is coming back for those that are on FIRE with his LOVE! ARISE DRY BONES and live.

Can these dead and cold bones (hearts) live. The Spirit of the Lord says YES! ARISE!

ARISE generation with GUTS to stand against the persecution, lies, rebellion, and torment. No matter where the torment is coming from, (friends, families, or enemies) the Lord is answering with a great thunder from heaven and He is overturning some stuff. He is shaking the rebellion in the land and what is righteous will be left standing.

SO I release a CRY to the generation to ARISE! DRY BONES & LIVE! Jer 1:17- Therefore prepare yourself and ARISE and speak to them all that I command you. Do not be dismayed before their faces, Lest I dismay you before them... vs. 10 - See, I have set you over the nations and over the kingdom, TO root out and TO pull down, TO destroy and TO throw down, TO build and TO plant.

Testimony of Ex- Homosexual

My prayer is that more people in the church will speak out and share their testimony because the young people need to know that JESUS saves! Below is a link to a testimony about a young lady who was in the lifestyle of homosexuality. This is in response to someone asking me to show people how to get out of the lifestyle of Homosexuality.

Jesus Christ is here for anyone struggling with ANY SIN! He wants you to come and lay your sin at His feet. No one is perfect but we are forgiven! No matter what the sin is, Jesus is standing there with open arms saying let me show you the way and the truth. Again God loves YOU but He HATES SIN NO MATTER WHAT THE SIN IS. I do not believe in attacking people in this lifestyle I believe in telling you God has a better plan for your life. God cares about you and he wants you to know that His Love = FREEDOM from ALL SINS.

This is her testimony in the form of a spoken word. She answers so many questions at the end of the spoken word as well so please watch and listen:

The Truth about Grace

On my last blog about Elton John and David Furnish (his partner)someone posted:
"Don't you think u r little bit hard? God is love and he understand that these men need each other. The word say his grace is sufficient so that means all they need is his sufficient grace to help them. he has forgiven them.

The Truth about GRACE! Roman 5 Paul taught that "where sin increased, grace abounded all the more" (vs 20)
but he quickly went on to say that this is no incentive to careless living: What shall we say then? Are we to continue in sin that grace might increase? MAY IT NEVER BE! How shall we who died to sin still live in it? (Romans 6:1-2)

1 Pet 2:6 Live as FREE men, but do not use your freedom as a cover-up for evil; live as servants of God.

GRACE= a NEW LIFE Old things and it's evil desires are passed away- (Homosexuality IS A SIN. It is a EVIL DESIRE!)

Romans 6:13 Do not offer any part of yourself to sin as an instrument of wickedness, but rather offer yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life; and offer every part of yourself to him as a instrument of righteousness. vs 14 For sin shall no longer be your master, BECAUSE you are not under the law, but under grace.

So to answer this person's question. NO I am not being hard, I am speaking truth! God will forgive them if they repent and Repentance means to TURN AWAY. God's Grace is sufficient for those fighting to stay free from Sin not any of us that will continue in sin.

DO NOT MISHANDLE GRACE. And just in case you think I am casting a stone. READ the story again. John 8:2-11. The last word of JESUS vs 11 "Then neither do I condemn you", Jesus declared. " GO NOW AND LEAVE YOUR LIFE OF SIN" After Jesus shows us grace, he also expects us to walk out of the sin when he forgives us of.

Again like I posted in my last blog, NO SIN IS GREATER THAN THE OTHER! What these men need and anyone trapped in sin needs is JESUS! The LOVE OF JESUS IS TO SET US FREE FROM A LIFE OF SIN!

Not Called to be GOOD! We are called to be RIGHTEOUS!

You can check out the interview for yourself at the link below!Joel Osteen was asked if Homosexuality is a sin and he sugar coated his answer-- I was waiting to hear some word come on his mouth...
http://cnn.com/video/?/video/bestoftv/2011/01/24/piers.osteen.homosexuality.cnn

Okay my brothers and sisters! Will you stand for something! The enemy is making a mockery of the Christian Faith and GOD! Period... We are not called to be GOOD people we are called to be RIGHTEOUS. Joel Osteen had a great platform to stand on in his interview with Piers. He allowed the spirit of the world to literally PUNK HIM!

Come On CHURCH we better start standing for something or we are going to FALL for ANYTHING.

This is unacceptable! Yes God loves the person but he HATES SIN! The photo that you see on this blog is on the cover of magazines in our grocery stores! Our children will grow up in a world where this is the norm. WE better start taking a stand without apology!

It's situations like this that will determine who is on the narrow road or the wide road! "Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and MANY enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a FEW FIND IT." Matt 7:13-14

The Church has watered down the gospel. Jesus did not preach a message to build you up to be a better you! He said "Whoever doesn't take up his cross and follow me doesn't deserve to be my disciple." (Matt 10:38) Then he said "The person who tries to preserve his life will LOSE IT, but the person who loses his life for me WILL PRESERVE it. (Mark 12:30)

So why is the church preaching this "All about ME and ME being GOOD PERSON..you know JESUS LOVES ME JUST THE WAY I AM." I really want to stop the press and say IT'S NOT ABOUT Jesus LOVE FOR YOU! THE QUESTION IS "DO YOU LOVE HIM?" Not the Love the world understands, but the love his word commands. IF YOU LOVE ME YOU WILL KEEP MY COMMANDMENTS!

So I ask, "WILL THE REAL CHURCH PLEASE STAND UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Don't love the world and what it offers. Those who love the world don't have the Father's love in them. 1 John 2:15

Piers asked Joel in the interview what would you say to a Homosexual.. Here what His answer should the have been:

Homosexuality is a sin (yes it's no bigger than any other sin) It is the spirit of the age! It's like all other sin. The father of lies, Satan, has deceived our nation to believe that this is a act of nature and you were born this way. We are all born into sin and we must be born again. This is a sexual sin and Romans 1:24-27 sates "Therefore God gave them over to the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the DEGRADING of their bodies with one another. They exchanged the TRUTH of GOD for a LIE, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator (your house, your car, your career, all those things are created things or opportunities that the Lord gave you).....Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the man also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion."

Anyone in the sin of Homosexuality must first REPENT for the SIN of Sexual immorality. Recognize that their body is the temple of the Holy Spirit and therefore they must FLEE from immorality. (1 Cor 6:18-2)(Eph 5:11-21)

Realize that LOVE OF GOD FORGIVES THEM not Tolerates sin. (1 Cor 6:9-11) (Micah 7:18-19)

And by the power of God they can lay down that sin and change (not to be a better person but to be a person holiness and righteousness). (2 Cor 5:17) (John 8:36) (1 cor 10:13)

Then they have to build themselves up in the word of God and understand that the flesh is always weak but the spirit of God living inside of them is willing! (Gal 5:16) (Ps 141:4) (Rom 6:6,11-14,19)

God has called us to FLEE the evil desire of youth, and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

So my prayer is that the church will begin to speak boldly against the deception of the enemy. That we will speak with Love but speak TRUTH. We have to stop trying to be politically correct and be biblical correct.

Go Hard or GO HOME... After all, God's saving kindness has appeared for the benefit of ALL PEOPLE. It trains us to avoid ungodly lives filled with worldly desires so that we can live self-controlled, moral, and godly lives in this present world. (Titus 2:11-12)

It's Time For A Sober Awakening!

1 John 2:16-17 (GOD’S WORD Translation)16Not everything that the world offers—physical gratification, greed, and extravagant lifestyles—comes from the Father. It comes from the world, and 17the world and its evil desires are passing away. But the person who does what God wants lives forever.

Salvation comes to save you from yourself and to save you for the Glory of Jesus.

Christian life is often presented to us as all the benefits that God came to give us. Instead of calling us to deny ourselves Jesus is mainly presented to us as the one who offers – physical gratification, greed and extravagant lifestyles-.

We have been guilty of believing that God exist for us rather of us existing for Him. The gifts that God gives us- forgiveness of sin, increase in our finances, good marriages, healing in our body, revival, “feeling” the anointing, etc.- are to lead us into the exaltation of the Giver.

We have been guilty of serving God based on what He can do for us.
Philippians 3:7-9 (GOD’S WORD Translation) 7These things that I once considered valuable, I now consider worthless for Christ. 8It’s far more than that! I consider everything else worthless because I’m much better off knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. It’s because of him that I think of everything as worthless. I threw it all away in order to gain Christ 9and to have a relationship with him. This means that I didn’t receive God’s approval by obeying his laws. The opposite is true! I have God’s approval through faith in Christ. This is the approval that comes from God and is based on faith.

It’s time for the church to sober up and see that we have been bewitched to believe that God is just our sugar daddy! It’s time to stop serving a selfless God with our selfish behaviors!

Are you prayers full of request and not full of adoration of the Most High King?
Are you easily moved with compassion and love towards others (outside of your family)?
Are you giving or are you always looking to for what you can get or gain?
Do you serve God at your convenience?
Do you praise God only when you “feel” Him?
Are you willing forsake all for the sake of Christ: Mother, Father, Sister, Brother, wife, or child even your own life

**This is note for those that claim you are in a cult when you no longer move the way they want you to**

This is the words of JESUS: Luke 14:26-27 (GOD’S WORD Translation)
26“If people come to me and are not ready to abandon their fathers, mothers, wives, children, brothers, and sisters, as well as their own lives, they cannot be my disciples. 27So those who do not carry their crosses and follow me cannot be my disciples.

And the big Question: Are still trying to live in the world and in church?
1 John 2:15-17 (GOD’S WORD Translation)
15Don’t love the world and what it offers. Those who love the world don’t have the Father’s love in them. 16Not everything that the world offers—physical gratification, greed, and extravagant lifestyles—comes from the Father. It comes from the world, and 17the world and its evil desires are passing away. But the person who does what God wants lives forever.

So I challenge you to deny yourself (Jesus Said it first) Luke 9:23-25 (GWT)
23He said to all of them, “Those who want to come with me must say no to the things they want, pick up their crosses every day, and follow me. 24Those who want to save their lives will lose them. But those who lose their lives for me will save them. 25What good does it do for people to win the whole world but lose their lives by destroying them?

In all that you do, do it for the GLORY OF GOD- 1 Cor 10:3131So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do everything to the glory of God.

Throw off everything that hinders you1Since we are surrounded by so many examples of faith, we must get rid of everything that slows us down, especially sin that distracts us. We must run the race that lies ahead of us and never give up. 2We must focus on Jesus, the source and goal of our faith. He saw the joy ahead of him, so he endured death on the cross and ignored the disgrace it brought him. Then he received the highest position in heaven, the one next to the throne of God.

And keep your love geared towards God and not personal gain Rev 2:2-4 2I know what you have done—how hard you have worked and how you have endured. I also know that you cannot tolerate wicked people. You have tested those who call themselves apostles but are not apostles. You have discovered that they are liars. 3You have endured, suffered trouble because of my name, and have not grown weary. 4However, I have this against you: The love you had at first is gone.

Sober up! DENY yourself all just the FIND yourself!

Flat Line Daily

You have been called to DIE DAILY!
Luke 9:23-25
"Then he said to them all: “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me. For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will save it. What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, and yet lose or forfeit their very self?"

Follow God's example and give yourself as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.
Eph 5:1-2
Follow God’s example, therefore, as dearly loved children and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.

This is our resonable service
Romans 12:1
Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship.

Answering the Call to Simply BELIEVE

Earlier this year Pastor Sherry announced that Bla-zen would be teaming up with DG4Life (out of California) to go on a mission trip to South Africa. I was excited because this would be my second time going and this time it was 11 of us including my husband Joshua. From March 2010- October 2010 I saw God move in a tremendous way.

As you read this, I want you to think about the things that God has called you do. What desires and dreams do you have? God desires for us to go into all the world to spread His Gospel and this is a testimony of God's hand releasing:

As the team began our fundraisers, we had to pay $1500 to DG4 LIFE and $2300 for our plane tickets. Pastor Sherry gave us instruction after instruction and would not let us settle for less. When God calls you to do something, the only thing keeping you from being the person who does it and the person who does not is this: either you DO SOMETHING OR YOU DO NOTHING! This Mission trip thought me how to believe God and how to really live a life of TRUSTING GOD.

God asked me why are we (His body) so full of unbelief? After all the excuses the bottom line is we walk in unbelief because we really do not know Jesus. We talk with our lips but not with our hearts. A heart of unbelief is wavered between two opinions. For us as a team, we were either going to believe God or Not.

For this mission trip I saw God move like never before in my life financially. In the first two weeks of Fundraising I had a couple bless me with my entire $500 deposit. Then within the next month donations came in from friends and family and my entire $1500 to DG4LIFE was paid in full.

You would have thought that I would not ever doubt God right. WRONG. When it came time to raise the $2300 for my plane ticket I found myself struggling with that heart of unbelief again. Like peter I was walking on water and then I took my eyes off of Jesus and looked at the circumstances. (Matt 14:22-35) I looked at the " I can'ts".. "that's too much"... "no one will help me".. "maybe I will not make it"...etc. But God spoke so profoundly to me and said "Am I God?"

Within the next three months donations flooded and then they stopped. Me and husband were still looking at raising money for the trip and making sure the house was cared for. (God is a God of order). God really blew our minds. God had two people one we know and one that we had never met before walk up us and place rent money in our hands. Literally one person said "As you are about your Father's business he is about your business." We did not worry too much we were just going to take out a loan. Again God asked me "Am I GOD?" My family received blessings, unexpected checks, unexpected refunds and favor! Not only did we pay off South Africa but we were able to pay all of our bills up to Feb 2011 in November and we paid off several debts that we had. BUT GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As I enter into 2011 God is challenging me to move forward and not look backward. It was so funny because I keep going to my mail box looking for bills. My daughter said mommy why do we not have mail. The Holy Spirit stopped me and I looked at her and said because our bills are paid. So I ask you today ,"Is Jesus not Lord?" Many Times God calls us to walk out the destiny that he set before us and we struggle with doubt and unbelief. Sometimes we play the religious "name it and claim it" game. God is saying, not only believe that I am God but also put your faith into action!

God wants to do a new thing in the body of Christ in the area of INCREASE. He is reversing that Money Cometh to Me for Me mentality and is releasing Money is coming to Me to get Through me to advance his Kingdom. Us being debt free is not for us to boast and take trip after trip to gratify our flesh. It's for us to take the money and give back to the Kingdom. God is not releasing INCREASE for us to buy bigger houses and bigger cars so people can look at us and see our wealth. He's releasing INCREASE so that we can build up His Kingdom!

Believe me I want a nice home and nice car because those are benefits of being a King's Kid but my house and my car are just tools for the Kingdom to be advanced. Rather it be hosting small groups at my house or allowing college students to rest in our home while they are on break, it does not matter because it's God's house. He allowed us to inhabit it while we are here on the earth.

Let's step into INCREASE with a NEW MINDSET THIS YEAR! FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD! God is faithful. The team of 11 people went to South Africa but not only did our lives change, God took us on a journey called "TRUSTING GOD 101". We had to trust God for the impossible to be made possible.

I thank all of my supporter and I praise God for showing me what LOVE looks like through the eyes of the children in South Africa.

So I encourage everyone to step out of boat this year. Allow God to be God in your life. DO SOMETHING this year. Stop saying you have a vision. WALK the VISION out! If God gave it to you, he will supply ever need according to His riches in heaven . This is truly a two year reign of INCREASE in the body of Christ. Not just in the area of money but in ever area of your life!

PRAISE JESUS!

Who are we really living for?

This Video challenged me to re-examine the way I live my life and the message I teach and preach. Listen and be blessed.

Where is the house that YOU will build for the LORD?

Happy New Year! Wow 2011 is here. God has truly been faithful.

When we reflect back over 2010 many people have already set new resolutions for 2011. Well I have a question.

Will you build a house for the Lord to dwell in this year?


When we are done setting goals for businesses, losing weight, getting married, reading the bible from Genesis to Revelation, etc. The Lord is asking “will you build a house that I can dwell in this year”?

Is 66:1 “This is what the Lord says: Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool. Where is the house you will build for me? Where will my resting place be?” God is looking for a people that will build a resting place for Him to dwell him.

The house, the resting place he is looking for is YOU. 1 Pet 2:4 “As you come to him, a living stone-rejected by men but chosen by God and precious to him- you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.” Will you prepare yourself as workman approved by the Lord this year? When we get finished making all these selfish declarations and resolutions will the Lord be more glorified or will we waste this year building ourselves up? (Philippians 2: 3)

God is looking for prepared vessels to use. We are in the last days and we are already seeing the beginnings of many falling away from the word of God. We are about to enter a time of Great Falling away. (2 Thessalonians 2: 1-4). The question you need to be asking is Am I willing to waste my life for a higher calling than earthly gain. What profits a man to gain the entire world yet loose his soul?

Let’s build a house (a vessel) that the Lord may dwell in. What house is the Lord looking for? Read Matt 5-7, the Sermon on the Mount. Jesus says “therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and put them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the ROCK.”

So I ask again, where is the house that you will build for the Lord?
