9:11 on the Clock!

9:11 on the clock. 

As always, for years now, everytime whether it is AM or PM, and I see 9:11 on the clock, I always quote out loud Psalm 91:1, "He who dwells in the shelter of the most high will find rest in the shadow of the almighty!" 

Let's praise God for His protection, for His shelter, and for the rest He provides!

In The Sweet Forever!

I came out of a time of prayer and listening to God with this word straight from the throne room of Heaven and this song pouring from my heart. 

Word: "My children, you must stand with Me says God. Again, you must stand with Me. I'm God, and I'll fix everything that needs fixing, but you must stand with Me in this hour. Don't stray. Don't look at your surroundings. Look at Me, and I'll show you who I really am says God. You say you love Me, but I just don't hear your words, says God. I look for action. I want to see that you still love Me, when you're tried and tested. You're going to be tested. It will prove your love for Me. Those who truly stand with Me in action and not just words, will stand and win. I need action and not just words, in this hour says God. I have brought you this far, and I'll take you the rest of the way but you must stay on with Me. You can't abandon ship now. You've got to fight. It's a battle and it's a war. The enemy and hell has been unleashed, but My children if you'll continue to walk in holiness and righteousness for thy namesake, I will bring you through these dark times. Sin prevails on this earth and darkness is covering this earth. Yet, I am searching the world for My people, and I will bring them out. My people are on the verge of great victories. I am ready to reveal My power to My church. Just hold on to Me, says God. The enemy is at work, but I am also at work, and in the end, I the Lord God win and My children win, saith the Lord of Hosts."

Song: "In the Sweet Forever"

Verse 1

What a happy time some glad tomorrow.

When we lay these heavy burdens down.

In this lonesome valley, no more to roam.

Having labored all through toil and sorrow.

Hoping to receive a golden crown.

It will all be glory in that sweet home.

Chorus 

In the beautiful city (beautiful city). 

Of the sweet forever (some happy day).

Where the River of Life. Goes ebbing by.

We’ll look upon the beauty. 

That fades no never (fades not away).

And happy we’ll be. While the ages fly.

Verse 2

Many precious loved ones will be waiting. 

Just across the river, deep and wide.

In this lonesome valley no more to roam.

Through eternity no separating.

Every heart will then be satisfied.

It will all be glory in that sweet home.

Stay prayed up. Come Jesus Come.

God Always Has A Song!

No matter what I'm going through, God always gives me a song for that trial. This is the one He give me this month during my ear sickness and surgery that was to follow in March of this year (2025). As I played it on the piano and sung it at church, during one of our fifth Sunday singings, I believed every word that I was singing, it was a different feeling of faith with this, a stronger confident faith despite the anxiety and fears I was fighting in the back of my mind! People can't see what you're feeling on the inside or what is going on in the inside... but Jesus always knows what you're going through and He's awesome about sending the right people on your path to help you along during the trial. The Summer of 2025 was tough for me, so was the Spring 2025, so was Winter 2025 (you get the picture), yet I continually praise God for allowing me to get through it all this year, more victorious than I was before I made it through.

"Why should I worry and fear, when the very same Jesus is always so near!?" He changes not! We always should look for the reasons to praise God in the middle of trials! 

Oh, He has healed me more than once, and I will never stop sharing my testimony of what God has done for me! 

Why Should I Worry? Lyrics:

Out on the waters the storms raging high. Darkness around them had troubled there minds. Fear gripped their hearts they thought they would die. But they failed to remember that the Master was nigh. He spoke the word and winds all stood still, even the waters obeyed His will, and He calmed their storms just like He will mine, if I just remember He lives deep inside.

Chorus: So why should I worry, why should I fear, when the very same Jesus, stays always near. He lives in my heart and He hears when I cry, I’ll call on His name, till the storm passes by!

We read in the Bible, how He walked with them, brought light to the darkness, when the way grew so dim. How great it would be to have His footsteps in mine, to walk with the Master all of the time. So when trials come, and death seems so nigh. I’ll just call on the Master, I know He’ll be there on time and when sickness comes, and my body’s in pain, all I have to do is, call on His name.

Repeat chorus

Put Everything in His Hands!

"Those precious hands have seen me through my darkest days. They've dried my tears, helped to guide me along the way. I know He'll safely see me through the fire again. I'm glad to know it's in my Savior's hands. Those precious hands that hold the universe will hold me now. Those hands that calmed the stormy sea will calm my soul somehow. There will be grace to make it through any trial. There will be strength to walk another mile. There will be hope when I have done all I can. I'm glad to know it's all in my precious Savior's hands."

God has not forgotten where you are. Be certain of that. He took Saul the persecutor of Christians to Paul the preacher witnessing for Christ. You think God can't bring you out of what you're in and set you free, think again?! It doesn't mean you will not suffer in the process, but oh what is waiting on the other side will be far greater than any persecution you will face on this earth. 

JAMES 1:2-4 "Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything."

Psalm 73:28 "But it is good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust in the Lord God, that I may declare all thy works." I can approach the future with confidence, because I draw near to God and have put my trust in Him, and I know the end from the beginning, the end for a true Chrisian which is eternity in Heaven.

A Spirit of Doubt!

There is a spirit of doubt roaming this nation, in more churches (hearts and minds of believers) than I could ever know. All the Lord asks of His children is to "come unto Me, all who are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest." He is Jehovah Rapha, the God who healeth thee. He is Jehovah Shalom, the God of peace. He can heal you where you are at today and set you free; physically, mentally, emotionally, and financially. [He is able to do exceedingly, abundantly more than you could ever ask or think of.] Those are not my words, that's scripture. See Ephesians 3:20. My spirit is heavy for those who doubt what God can do, as I've been there more than once in my walk with God, but He has the power and ability to break those chains of doubt off you this day. He can do it wherever you're at; right there in your home. I'm praying for your deliverance if you're bound by those chains of doubt. God loves and cares about you; don't allow the enemy to keep lying to you and keep you in bondage. All you have to do is ask and believe. 

And, then the Lord allows His word to go forth with power and victory... and almost weekly, He reminds our church (and I am sure so many other Christian churches across this world) NOT TO DOUBT HIM.

"Do not doubt Me. I have not departed from you says the Lord. I am Jehovah Jireh and more than enough for you. I will not withdraw Myself from you, if you will follow Me, call on Me, worship Me, and remain obedient to Me. Nothing that the enemy does catches Me by surprise or confuses Me for I am NOT the author of confusion. Get your focus completely back on Me in this hour for I am still a delivering God, a saving God, a comforting God, and a healing God says the Lord of Hosts." 

In my time of prayer, this was the word I heard for His people. I was reminded that nothing derails God. Yes, there are things that are shaking our world right now, there are things that pull us to the very lowest point of our life, but nothing derails God nor His plans for us! God is bigger and greater than any problem that we face (are facing now). He is bigger than our doubts. There may be events that have knocked you to your knees, there may be a spirit of doubt and overwhelmness and heaviness in this hour that is trying to paralyze you emotionally or steal your purpose or calling... but God saw it all before it ever came to your eyes, and He's here to help you rise above it all to walk in complete victory. He’s still God in the midst of it all. He's here to help us overcome the enemy in this hour. We can't afford to sit down in defeat. The Lord is our firm foundation. He’s our rock. We can stand on His word, and His promises (and not doubt) for they are "YES" and "AMEN".
