Word for 2013

There are already many "Words" that have been given, this is the piece that God has given to me.  I make it a practice to not read other people's prophecies until I have heard from God for myself about the coming year... so if any of this sounds like something you have already heard, it is because we all share the same Holy Spirit.  I trust that you will be strengthened and edified. God Bless You dear reader and Happy New Year to you!


Word for 2013
Look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for not all is as it seems.

As I was contemplating 2013 and asked the Lord for a word… that is what He spoke to me.  I thought about and had a few snapshots in my mind of all these different scenarios that were playing out and what things look like in the natural…   But God’s Word spoke to my heart that there are many things in front of us.  Some are good and some are bad.  But, we cannot walk by sight, or by how we feel. We cannot even use our senses to tell what is really real, for the master deceiver wants to paint a picture so bleak, that we as Christians won’t even open our mouths to speak. But we must speak the Truth of God’s Word.  We must stand on the promises that have always stood. We cannot let go, or draw back now!  We cannot fail to be with Him at the bow.  For though it looks like it, and well you may think, but our ship will not sink, as long as the helm is held by the Masters firm and steady hand. So, it is time to stand! Stand upon your watch to see.  See those things that can not been seen except by the eye of the Spirit as though in a dream.  So stretch out in Faith, dare to believe, that He has given to you what you will need. So now just receive.

Many things are presenting themselves to us, and a great deal of it is in the form of bad news.  2012 has had some disappointments in it and our hope we seem to lose.  Indeed people made promises they could not keep, problems and sorrows seemed to have grown so deep!  Bad things happened with the threat of more in store.  Economic troubles make us want to go hide and just shut the door!  Things heating up in the Middle East, will the drama never cease?  Evil forces want to take Israel down, want to wear her blood like a victory crown.  Israel is not the problem, so don’t cast your blame, for these forces want America’s downfall just the same. The Great Satan they jeer, we don’t want you here! It is the lifelong battle of darkness and light.  But the struggle will not be won only by Power and Might.  It is Spiritual for those who have eyes to see, the natural reminds us of our own mortality.  It all comes down to choices, and what will you choose?  More lies to swallow with more to lose.  Or, trust the light of One you cannot see.  Step out of Babylon’s bondage and finally be free!  The world is a place of wonder and delight, but the world system that runs it, is full of chicanery and fright. So do not look for answers there, the world has nothing which can compare with the Matchless Beauty, The Sovereignty, Truth and Light found in the Heart of God, or the Love which burns so Bright. Jesus is STILL the Answer for the world today. Don’t listen to the nay-sayers or give heed to what they say. Yes, things out there are dark, and the darkness will get only darker still. But now is the finest hour to be a light shining on a hill!  Will you take that upward climb?  Will you, all the follies of this world resign? Truly let your light shine!  When you have given it all to Jesus, then you are living with nothing to lose. So do not fear to come up near, to that old rugged cross so dear.  Divest yourself of all that holds you back, from running fully on that glorious racing track.  Do not look at what you can see, step out in Faith and Trust In ME!



2Co 4:17  For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;

2Co 4:18

(AMP)  Since we consider and look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen; for the things that are visible are temporal (brief and fleeting), but the things that are invisible are deathless and everlasting.



Two men of God have spoken to me and told me what they hear about 2013. 



Pastor Rusty Bowles has told me it will be a Year of Activation.

Many things will get activated.



Pastor David Carey has said it will be a Year of the Holy Spirit.



Do you see how these two fit together? As we give place to the Holy Spirit and allow activation of our faith and gifts for His service, the Holy Spirit will step in to move through us, move upon us and for us.

Glory!  It is time for a glory invasion. It is time for God’s Presence through His power and signs and miracles to be so in evidence upon this earth!  We have had enough of mediocrity.  It is time for the sons of God to come forth!  Problems present themselves, begging for answers and solutions. We have the Answer!  His name is Jesus. He is the only one who can free us. So be free from the cares of this world. The tyranny and demands that do not belong to us. Truly God cares for us and is our ample reward and our shield. So loose any fear, rise up, be healed, be whole, be still and know! Know that I AM GOD! 

~x~x~x~  
Hallelujah! Amen!

Private Word to All of my sons and daughters:
I release this Word to you:  May you rise up in the strength of HIS Might, Be strong and Courageous and conquer every devil set against you.  I pray His Wisdom be yours, His strategies be revealed to you, and His unlimited provision to flow from His place of blessing, to you.  I speak Apostolic Blessings over you now in Jesus Name.  Rise up, Be strong and Courageous. Meet your adversities head on with
renewed confidence and energy. Stay your course and Win. Victory is in sight, if you see it by the eyes of Faith!
Love, Mama/Mum/ Mummy

Divine Appointments by Brenda Craig

Divine Appointments
Posted By Brenda On March 30, 2012 @ 2:00 am In Word of the Day | 1 Comment
“And such some of you were [once]. But you were washed clean (purified by a complete atonement for sin and made free from the guilt of sin), and you were consecrated (set apart, hallowed), and you were justified [pronounced righteous, by trusting] in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the [Holy] Spirit of our God” (I Corinthians 6:11 Amplified).
Word of the Day
Beloved, I am sending divine contacts, arranging everything down to even the indiscernible details. Have faith. Can you see the light of the stars traveling through the heavens? Can you see the fish swimming in the deepest fathoms of the ocean? Just because you can’t see it doesn’t mean it isn’t happening. It is the same with all I am doing in your life. I am working on many fronts to bring things about.
It is important to see things from a heavenly perspective, not an earthly one. The Word I have spoken continues on and on like the light of many stars, traveling until it hits the object of its affection. In the days to come you must learn the principle of seeing from My perspective. You must learn to see from the position given to you in Me.

Yes, the door of heaven is open to you, over you and you are forever within heaven’s habitation. Keep on coming, keep on receiving without question or doubt. You will not be disappointed.

Do not give in to any seeds of unbelief. Do not look too introspectively at your own heart. Look at Mine and know you are in Me and I am in you. Only respond to conviction, not guilt. My conviction, never and I mean never, releases guilt or shame. Confess and move on in Me. I have freed you from the guilt of sin (1 Corn. 6:11).

Beloved, don’t keep Me waiting based on your wrong misconceptions or a need to produce some kind of penance. I have already paid the price. Accept this and move on. Time is short and I need you. You are an amazing part of an incredibly intricate plan. Right now at this very moment necessary contacts are being planned, divine appointments are being arranged. It is essential that you be there when they are revealed. Their time as well as yours has come…Read Complete Love Letter… [1]

Prayer
Lord, You paid the ultimate price and made way for me to be where You are—to see things from Your vantage point. Many times I get discouraged because I can’t see with my eyes what You have spoken to me. I can’t see in the natural what Your Word says already is. Just as Your words “let there be light” continue on through the constant birthing of new stars, so shall the Word You have spoken over my life continue until it releases all You have planned.

I embrace the open door of Heaven and the position given to me in You, Lord. I refuse all doubt and unbelief. Negative words of men are of no consequence to me and they have no power when I embrace the truth. You paid the price for me and I accept the fullness of provision Your life has given to me. I accept Your perfect sacrifice and I move on to move in sync with You. Divine appointments await me and some have even come to me. My eyes are open and my ears attentive to Your voice; therefore, I will not miss one contact necessary to the fulfillment of Your plans for me or the ones I meet. My time and theirs has come. I am listening. Amen
Reflect and Journal
1. Reflect on the many people and situations the Lord has sent into your life to further your progress and bring you one more step into the fulfilling of destiny.
2. What promises have you let go by the wayside because you didn’t see what you expected when you expected to see it?
3. In what areas are you too introspective and have the tendency to give sway to guilt and shame? In what areas have you been walking in unbelief and are these areas connected in any way to guilt, shame or the need to pay penance in order to move on? Confess for not believing the blood of Jesus is enough. Release them. Expressing this in your journal will help you now and at a later date.
4. Reflect on the difference between guilt/condemnation and conviction. One speaks death and one brings freedom and life.
5. Take some time to walk to the open door of Heaven and listen. Do this by quiet worship with a heart to hear what Holy Spirit is saying, time to hear which Words He wants to bring to your remembrance.

Faith n Love

Faith worketh by Love...have you checked your supply lately?

If Faith is sagging and dragging and you're feeling low
I have just the place that you really should go!

For when our Faith lags and we feel weak,
It is the arms of Jesus that we need to seek.

Looking into the Eyes of Love there is no fear
How can we fail to "just believe" with His Love so near?

Great Grace awaits all those who seek
The Yoke of Jesus, who is gentle and meek.

He bids you come to the fountain for a fresh supply
Come all those weary, whose well has run dry.

Come be refreshed, and re-fired again,
Let Him fill and quiet your soul within.

Rest in the arms of the One who loves you so
Let your Faith arise, Trust and let go!

More about 2012

2012. What I saw is all brightness and light. What I saw was bright light like of the noon day shining brightly. What I saw was good and goodness.  Just as Joseph saw the End of the Matter in his vision and did not see pit or prison, I did not see anything to cause a stumble, anything to cause alarm.  But I did sense that whatever may be hidden from view would have no power of sway as long as we stayed on the Pathway set before us.

For Abba tells us over and over, " I KNOW the plans I have for you..."
The Amplified reads this way: For I know the thoughts and plans that I have for you, says the Lord, thoughts and plans for welfare and peace and not for evil, to give you hope in your final outcome.

So what will our choices be? Do we choose Life? Obedience or disobedience? Do we  choose Intimacy or neglect?  Do we choose Trust or trying to figure it out on our own? Do we choose His Way, or our way? His path or the one that "seems right to us but leads to death?"  Do we choose to believe or doubt?  

How we walk out this year will depend on what WE choose!  God has already chosen!  He has already prepared a good path, a good life, a good outcome.  The enemy of our souls has prepared trouble, has prepared trials and heartaches.  But God has promised us, " Many are the afflictions of the Righteous, but HE delivers them out of them all." Psalm 34:19

So stand tall!  Be of good cheer even as Jesus told us in John 16:33 "I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace and confidence. In the world you have tribulation and trials and distress and frustration; but be of good cheer [take courage; be confident, certain, undaunted]! For I have overcome the world. [I have deprived it of power to harm you and have conquered it for you.]"

He does NOT paint a happy, bright picture, just to trick you and trip you up.  It is our enemy who does that... reference please Eve in the garden of Eden and the pretty spin that the serpent put on the forbidden fruit... how lovely it was, how much she would gain by it, how mean God was to try and "deprive her" and "keep her down."  Uh huh.  And we know how that played out!  No, GOD is not like that at all.  What He shows us, what he says is ours and what we can have and be, really are ours and available to us... if we only listen to HIS voice and not the voice of doubt, defeat and fear, like those 10 spies who came back with the evil report.  
It was evil because God had already said He had (past tense) given them the land, but they reported not only the lay of the land, they reported their own thoughts in their hearts and polluted everyone except Caleb and Joshua. And only Caleb and Joshua entered into the land of Milk and Honey!

So, I encourage you in this New Year, BE of good cheer!  All is not glum and dark and lost.  For Jesus the Christ has already paid the cost.  So draw near with a heart of confidence in your God, believe His Word is true, Believe He will do what He has said He will do. Believe His heart is full of LOVE and good plans for YOU!  And as you do, you will see many mighty breakthroughs, for the GOD of the Universe loves you and will move Heaven and Earth just for you!

I Believe In You

My Beloved One, it is true. I DO believe in you. I know you wonder how that can be. I hear your heart question, "is it really true?  You believe in me?  But how can You Lord?  Aren't you disappointed in me?"

It's true, you've messed up and made some ill chosen choices.  But that does not mean that you are a failure. It doesn't even mean that you don't love Me.  It simply means you haven't yet learned how to trust and to make right choices that will lead you further along the path I have laid out for you.

The Truth is, even in those wrongly thought out moves, I AM still working in your to bring you to a fuller revelation of ME and of MY LOVE for you.  I AM dealing with your heart, dealing with your emotions, dealing ever so gently that sometimes you do even recognize it.  But I AM with you!  Doing and willing of My good pleasure, to bring you into a fullness of relationship with ME.

So believe it when I say, "I believe in you," and choose to both believe in ME and to believe in yourself. Disappoint ME?  Never!  The very meaning of the word means to unsettle, to defeat or hinder from enjoyment...  Dear one you cannot unsettle ME!  You can hinder yourself, but you cannot hinder ME!  And I enjoy you very much, and long to show you so much more than you now see and experience.

So dear one, do not frustrate MY Grace, which is mightily at work in and through you!  I say that for YOUR benefit, that it may go well with you.  I say that for the benefit of those whose lives you WILL touch, even unknowingly!  For you see,
you are a delight to ME and a worry to the enemy!  So trust and obey, rely and relax, look forward and not backward, and Live your life to the MAX!  I have ordained it to be so and full of blessings much more than you know.  For that is how life is meant to be when it is lived fully surrendered to ME.
