ARISE with FIRE!

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.

Wake UP!

Revelations 3:2 - WAKE UP! and strengthen what remains and is about to die for I have found your deeds unfinished in the sight of my God.

This week I have been at IHOP, The international House of Prayer. It was no big conference it was just worship and sitting in the presence of the Father. It was a time of hearing what the Lord is speaking to us! I just hear WAKE UP and strengthen what remains. Our work is unfinished. We have been in the church. We have gone through the motions. We have song on the worship team. We have been in the morning prayers. God is still speaking that our work is unfinished! The God of host is ready to open up the heavens and pour out his blessings upon us! We are in a moment of time that we must be able to hear God and obey! We must be able to be able to get in line with the Father and carry His gospel without doubt and sin! The weight of sin is what is keeping us from moving into the move of God! God is speaking so clearly! WAKE UP! We are in this world but not of the world! We are just passing through this life but we answer to a higher calling! What are you doing now that the Lord is saying LET IT GO! Revelation 3:15 tells us that He knows our deeds, that we are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! --- Which way will you GO!

The cry of the unborn!

Why are women really choosing abortion? The next time you argue pro- choice know your facts!

Reasons for choosing Abortion:

1% victims of incest or rape

1% fetal abnormalities

4% doctor advised against carrying to term due to health

50% didn't want to be SINGLE PARENT, or PROBLEMS in current RELATIONSHIP

66% could not AFFORD a child

75% A child would INTERFERE with THEIR lives

You do the math. God deals with human beings as creatures made in His image and determines HIS plan for them before they are born! (Gen 25:23; Jer 1:4-5; Is 49:1-2,5; Gal 1:15)

You are His Handiwork!

Charm can mislead and beauty soon fades. The woman to be admired and praised is the woman who lives in the Fear-of-God. Give her everything she deserves! (Proverbs 31:31 Message)

I was sitting and just thinking about how we place so much time and effort on the way we look. How many times have you allowed someone else to place you on bondage because they say something about you weight, your hair, or your clothes? In a split second our lives can change. We could die or we could have a accident and never walk or see again. It would not matter at that point how skinny or fat you are. It would not matter how your hair is fixed. At that point the only thing that matters is your relationship with Jesus Christ. We get it twisted so often. What happens when you are so consumed with your image and your beauty that you leave the creator of your body out of the picture? God is not going to say well done my good and faithful servant because you looked good. He is not going to say depart from me because of your fat legs, fat gut, fat arms, skinny legs, big head, or stone feet. The word of God reminds us that we are His handiwork! It’s not your beauty or lack of it that He is after. It’s your heart that Jesus is after. Fear the Lord and nothing else matters.

He holds you in His HANDS!

The Lord is waiting with open hands to catch you.

Break loose of the prison chains and trust the Father to be God!

Many times we make so many excuses but all we have to do is fall into the hands of the Lord.

His hands are big enough to hold the whole world so what are our issues to him. He is bigger than the situation. He is bigger than that relationship. He is bigger than the hurt. He is bigger than that drug addiction. He is bigger than the parents that do not care. He is GOD! FALL into His HANDS.

Say Something!

We traveled to Virginia Beach for Throne Zone 2009. We had been saying Throne Zone or Bust for two weeks! Well the experience was mind blowing.

Thursday Night- The message was by Dr. Joseph Garlington.

Open Your Mouth and say something!

Remember your comprehension is not a prerequisite to your cooperation. You don’t have to understand the way God moves just place yourself on the position to experience the move of God. Cooperate with the Father by simply speak to the situation and decree what you want to happen. When we are worshipping God we must learn how to open our mouths and speak.

A WOW Moment- Have you ever thought about how the mind works. The left side of the brain is very logical. Left side of brain tends to go on facts. It hinders you from looking beyond the natural facts. But you right side of the brain has the capacity to overturn the left side of the brain. The right side is your creative side. You can sing yourself into freedom. You can overcome by simply opening your mouth and placing a decree into a song and you mind automatically begins to change towards the positive vs. what your logic is telling you.

God is waiting for you just give Him something to work with. He is waiting for you open your mouth up and decree what you need done. When you decree something you are saying something and God is agreeing with what you say.

To decree means to settle an issue without any doubt about it. IT’S TIME TO SAY SOMETHING!

Breaking out of PRISON

The worst prison that you can be in is the one in your own mind. Many of you may have different “Personal Prisons”. I am here to tell you that your freedom is here! The word of God says that we overcome by the word of our testimony. I share a personal testimony to the ladies dealing with rejection-

On Saturday January 31 I turned 27 years old. On a day that I should have been just excited about a new year, I was hit with a harsh reality. The reality is “what will the next years really be like if you are not free in your own mind.”

My prison is REJECTION! I began my day with acts of Love. I went and passed out gloves, scarves, and a “love note” from Heaven to the homeless community. That should of pushed me to be more grateful. I then went and prayed with a young girl from the church that has a decease that can kill her. I should have been even more grateful.

After all that by 6:00pm on my birthday I felt a huge weight of disappointment. It was not because of gifts- I actually got what I wanted. I was frustrated, I was hurt, I was feeling like what happen to nice cards with a love note from the "hubby". I wanted to spend personal time with my future "hubby". I wanted my parents to call me earlier. I wanted to be worshipped on that day. Let's be honest our minds have been trained that on my birthday people should give ME, tell ME, spend time with ME, give ME a gift this way, Wrap MY gift this way. Spend money on ME this way. We take the year that God has blessed us with and make it as if it's all about us instead of being about the creator who created us.

I found myself feeling rejected and the weight of being unthankful was weighing me down. It was a lot going on. I began to express to the Father. It’s not about the gift. It’s about I wanted a genuine hug. I wanted a genuine phone call to say I am happy you are in my life. I wanted at least a card to say the same. I began to beat myself up about being ungrateful. I began to say you don’t deserve anyone to go out of their way to say they love you.

In reality I was locking myself into a prison. I began to try to protect myself from the hurt and fear. It was a harsh reality that God’s gift of life seemed belittled by a man’s lack of words. I was placing people's love in the place that God’s love and peace should have been in.

For my birthday God was trying to give me a gift of FREEDOM by way of due process. He allowed me to see how selfish I am. Many people may not think I was expecting to much but for what God is doing in my life I cannot allow myself to place so high expectations on man that I forget that Jesus Christ is my best friend, my first husband, my mother and my father!

God did not want me to focus on the what did not take place that day. He wanted me to focus on the source of my strength, the breathe in my body, the fact that I am not in the hospital dying, the fact that I am not that homeless person needing gloves and blankets. I missed that because I locked myself into a prison called REJECTION!

By Monday it hit the surface. God spoke clearly to me in my prayer time. I have blessed you with 27 years and you will give me the next 27 days. He said I will bring you into 2- agreement with me and I will 7-complete the process I started in you in November. (that is my journey into the unknown but trusting the Father every step of the way)

Many times it’s easy to blame the depression and oppression and the feeling of being rejected on the people around us. It’s easy to say my spouse did this or that. It’s easy to say that my children do not do this or that. It’s easy to say that my parents did this to me or that. That is real easy to say, but God is saying do HARD THINGS! I wasted a whole day being concerned about why did FLESH not do something for me. It was God that gave me life 27 years ago. It is God that is keeping me together.

If you deal with rejection realize that prison you place yourself in shuts God out. You have to activate the power of God’s love in your life. If you be honest not thing is ever good enough for you because all you see is the prison walls and bars.

I’m coming out and I want the world to know! Rejection will never ruin another day for me! God processes us through different things so that we can see the need of HIS hand. We have to be completely dependent on the love of God and his word concerning us.

GUTS is not being afraid to expose your weaknesses so that others may see the hand of God. When you allow any prison to lock you up in your mind, you find yourself forgetting about God. You find yourself relying on man and not seeing the power of God. Refuse to be in any bondage in your mind. Believe the word of God and nothing can stop you. Don’t allow anything to still your worship and praise. Break out of depression and oppression. Allow God to be your first lover! Be determined to bring down that wall that keeps popping up in your mind. BE FREE TO BE YOU!
