Who is in your prescence?

In this day and busy time that we live in it is rarely that we take the time to smell the roses or less notice the people in our surroundings.. It is amazing the people that come in our presence on a daily bases and we look and treat them as nothing. I know that the word speaks of how Zechariah was startled when the angel approached him and said I have heard your prayers......out of all Zechariah's praying yet he truly did not believe. Our belief systems always prevail our actual reaction to receiving the promise or some might say he was startled at the Angel,because of whatever and my thoughts. Why would we be startled at God's showing up in our presence in some shape, form or fashion? How many times do we shrug off who is in our presence can you image how Zechariah had been so busy working in the temple and he didn't recognize that God's manifested presence was about to shift his ministry work. We get so established in traditions and fluff and many times miss the opportunity to serve who is in our presence, because we are so busy serving the future.Today I was fortunate to meet a young man who worked for his city government, he wasn't the mayor or some Department head, but what I recognized he was important to the kingdom of God and his today, looks nothing like his tomorrow will be, I could have made the decision to shrug him off as a nobody, but God needed to manifest himself in our presence and it is a wonderful feeling and blessing to see God restore one back into fellowship with him. Ask your self How many times God has said to you that I heard your prayer and now you don't believe me for my manifested results.....I am in your presence today
Read Luke 1:9-13a,19

When you Desire to be Used, God can use you

While listening to the Costa Rica Mission team, talk about their experince, My heart went back to my personal experince in Kenya, I do believe that I am to do more in and through Kenya, in God's timing. To be used of God is a humbeling experince, and the good thing is, it is not about us, we Americans tend to relate everything back to us. My Church, My ministries, my my my you name it we are the my people. While listening to the lyrics of a song posted on the video the words came alive it stated Greater things are yet to come. Greater things are still to be done in this city.......We have unlimited poetential and resources. With all this said and done yet the gospel has not been filled all over the earth,but we are fastly approaching the time of fulfillment of God's prophecy. As I was sitting in the room, with my fellow brothers and sisters in Christ I thought to myself we must be in a pursuit of spreading the gospel throughout the whole earth. We must use our hands to feed and clothe the naked both naturally and spirtually, and I thank God for those who use there feet to go, we must be willing to use, what we have to bless other's no matter how small it seems.If you become the solution for other's, when you need an answer other's will be your solution.

Delight yourself in the Lord and he shall give you the desires of you heart Psalms 37

God Does Hear and See

So you think that the Lord forgot about you, let me inform you not so-Each one of us have many paths that we must go down.The problem is when we have to go down a path,that we didn't plan or would have chosen for our lives.The word of God has so many example, but lets look at Hagar: She obeyed the request her mistress to have a child for her husband, and the results was that she did conceived and her mistress Sarai despised Hagar and Sarah treated Hagar with anger,resentment due to the fact she tried to help God with his plan to bless her and Abram.. The ill treatment was more than Hagar could bear, so she fled from her mistress Gen 16:7 And the angel of the Lord found her by a fountain of water in the wilderness (A place in ones life where things look dead and there is seemly is no hope.)by the fountain in the way to Shur.vs 8 And he said, Hagar, Sarai's maid, whence camest thou? and whither wilt thou go? And she said, I flee from the face of my mistress Sarai. vs9 And the angel of the Lord said unto her, return to thy mistress,and submit thyself under her hands. vs 10 and the angel of the Lord said unto her, I will multiply thy seed and exceedingly, that it shall not be numbered for multitude. vs 11 And the angel of the Lord said unto her, Behold,thou art with child,and shalt bear a son, and shalt call his name Ishmael: because the Lord hath heard thy afflictions.vs 13 And she called the name of the Lord that spake unto her, Thou God seest me for she said, Have I also here looked after him that Seeth me?

Though many times we make a mess of trying to work out God plans, he stays in his position on and work things out for our good Romans 8:28

Happy Fathers Day


I would like to say to all our men Happy Father Day, so many times we give you guys a hard rap, but in reality, women raise boys ....... but God told us to train them You will catch it Proverb:

So may be the probelm really aint the men, but the women who raise them? Okay women put the rocks up now.... and the fathers that raise them. Our children are not animals and should not be reared like animals: but we are to train them. that means we do and show them how to do and in return they become doers like us......Fathers I encourage you to set the standards high in your life......So train a boy to be might and will be a mighty man

Seed Sowing

Every Seed produces a Harvest...... that has been a quote given to me by the Lord to help me understand somethings I have been through and somethings that I will go through in the future.
Listen and hear this word:

Gen 8:22 While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.

And as I look around me today, the earth still remains------and until it is no longer remaining we all have a process that we must go through, no matter if you are born again or not that is call the process of seeding and timing elapse and harvesting. process, the Key to your harvest is what you sow. Don't sow corn seeds and expect potatoes to come.

I ask you today to sow what you want to harvest..... and if you have sown things in your life..... dig up those bad seeds. That is done through first acknowledging you sowed the wrong seed,(Forgiveness to others and yourself) and repent and sow no more of that, then you grow in patience and allow time to take its course of action and then you will reap a better harvest.This principal applies to every area of our lives.

NEVER FORGET THAT YOU ARE A SEED SOWER

PRAYER BUSTERS

Prayer is very important subject matter, that we talk about all the time, but in reality we probaly do less of it than we care to honestly admitt. God allows us to go through what I call prayer cycles ( The bible calls them prayer watches)and I am currently in a 4:00 am prayer cycle. I am awaken and I know it is time to do business with God. It is during this cycle of time that God really deals with me in dreams, and I begin to see myself very clear for the real creature in Christ that I am........... and he speaks to my spirit about many things. I can tell the body of Christ, prepare through prayer, for what the next phase shall be for the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, He is up to something and if youre like me you want to be apart of what God is doing in and through the earth at this season. I want to give you 6 Prayer Busters

1. Encourage and Invite others to join you in prayer Matt18:19 the power of the prayer of agreement

2. Find ways to pray outside of the norm. We all do it---- We just don't recognize the creativity of the Holy Spirit.... For example. I have endured to say the least cars who had trouble, if you know what I mean. and most of the time I did not have the necessary finaces to keep the cars running in top of the line shape, so I experinced many break downs. So Everytime I see a car/truck on the side of the highway or roadway. I say a prayer for the owner.

3. Know for a fact that pray is a tool, that must be coupled with other tools to be effective.....Reading, studying and meditating and doing the word of God .

4. There are no spirtual giants in praye. It is the ability to talk and walk out in the earth what God has spoken already.

5. Be open for the leading of the Holy Spirit ----Not your ideas or traditions, it interferes or delays results to to receivign answered prayers.

6. Be alert to the Holy Spirit and follow him;; realase only What the Holy Spirit wants you to release at the given time. You might say How do I know when to release.. the ususal characteristic of release is When we have depleted what we think or say and trust God in prayer and know that he has the answer --- You do have the option to disagree with the outcome, but it doesn't change results unless God says the results change and the only way to know that is to spend time listening to God speak to your spirit man about what you prayed about

Passing the test

Life has many challenges and many challenges that we overcome. and some take longer for us to overcome, than others however we do overcome them or least we should. Our family bible study at this time is the book of James. Oh how convenient for the Lord to allow Tyrone to choose to study this book at this time in our lives. I like you, well maybe not like you. The first couple of verses caused me to say, what you say God? Have you ever had a What you a say God day? Well I have had many and I am sure many more to come. The very first verse tells us (Believers) count like 1, 2, 3,........ and so on and so on when you fall into divers temptation. So the likely hood that we will never fall into testing and trials, is a myth that we can dispel today. Testing produces something, call patience in each of us - patience brings out our real character, not the persona I want you to see, but the real me- and patience if we let it have it 's perfect work, will produce Godly character in us. It is not in the easy time, that one is developed into the perfected man, but those times of growth comes in our lives when we allow patience's to show us, us and us alone. You can tell me that you are a giver, I really don't know that until you're challenged to give when you seem to have less to give. You can tell me you let water run off you back, but I want know until water is poured on your head and forced all over your body, how you will react. I like to be honest with self and God first, well God knows anyway, so I figured I might as well keep him in the top spot of telling him about me.and then he remind me Angela you like the results of passing test so go ahead I have given you a cheat sheet call the bible for when you take and test so that you may get a A and you want have to repeat the class and take the test. But the Instructor God always give refresher courses and test to see if you really learned the subject and if there be any lack, he allows a new test so you can get the information again. Test are designed not to fail you, but to evaluate how well our relationship is building. So I say to myself go ahead and take the test with joy, and I say it to you as well........Oh by the way you can pull out your cheat sheet.

James 1:2-4 My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations. Knowing this , that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.
