Is your life ablaze with praise for the One who breathed life into you, the One who taught you how to breathe in and out, the One who shared His own breath with you? How much of that breath have you returned to Him in the form of worship and praise?

God

We are to enthusiastically and with great joy praise God in the temple of our bodies. Indoors and outside we are to praise Him. In worship gatherings and when we are alone, we are to praise Him. We are to praise Him when we feel like it and when we don't. We are to fill His created universe with the praise of Him. We are to worship and praise Him because of His mighty deeds of goodness and the excellence of who He is. We are to praise Him with every musical instrument available. In a symphonic rhapsody we are to praise Him. Everything that breaths is to worship and praise the King. Psalm 150:1-6. Let His praise continually be in your mouth. Let your boasting be only and always of the Lord alone, so that others may hear of His wondrous grace and mercy and be glad. 34:1-3. Praise is always the right thing to do in all circumstances. In order to live in victory, we must learn to praise our God. It is a good thing that we do when we give the sacrifice of praise to the Most High in the morning. And declare His faithfulness at night with the same. As we come before Him with thanksgiving in our hearts, praising and loving Him, who has first loved us, we are welcomed into His presence where we receive the fullness of His grace. It is by the work of His Hands that we are made to triumph in His ways. Psalm 91:1-4. It is by praise that we keep the door to victory open. May the whole world soon be filled the praise of Him.

Love and hugs
Sylvia

Have a marvelous 4th of July! What a great time to praise Him. nerdy.jpg

Hello my precious friend. Hope you are doing well and being blessed.

My Lord...Hes Victorious

Listen to Me My victorious child. I have purged you of your sins and now I sit at the right hand of the majesty of the Most High, always making intercession for you. I have given you the excellence of My name, which is above all names. Do not be shy and hold back from that which I have called you to. Grace and more grace is what you have. You are free to sail with Me into the realms of the greatness of My excellence. I uphold all things by the word of My power. I am the eternal Son of God, My Father, who became the glorified and exalted man of your redemption. I have inherited all things from My Father, who has made you a joint heir with Me. I have claimed you for My own and given you the keys to the Kingdom of God for you to use NOW. Today! Every day! Come drink of the intoxicating love that I extend to you My beloved. Spend time in the throne room with Me. Bask in My relentless, overpowering, life changing love. Come, take up your place in My kingdom, you are the brightness of My glory as I am the brightness of the Fathers glory. Let the power of My word keep you in the secret place of My presence where the consuming fire of My glory covers you. Where no evil can find a place to kill, steal or destroy your destiny. Die to the desires and torments of your flesh and awaken unto the life that the provision of My death and resurrection has made available to you. Fear not I have gone before you and prepared your way.

I died that you might always have enough of every good and perfect gift of My love to sustain you in your earthly journey. I am El Shaddai. I am enough. Enough love, power, knowledge, wisdom and provision to complete the course of your life in Peace (wholeness), joy and victory. I died that you might never be lacking in any good thing. Trouble, sorrows and persecutions a plenty will come your way, but I have overcome them all. And My victory is yours today, just as surely as your eternal future is safe and laid up for you in heaven. Trust Me! I have been where you are. I have walked in your shoes. Now come walk in mine and enter into the victory of My triumph over all the powers of evil.


May the fullness of Christ glory covering you be always visible to the world around you. And may you be always the conduit of His love, which changes the darkness into the resplendency of His marvelous life changing light.

Hebrews 1:1-4; Romans 8:34,7,13; Psalm 34:10; James 1:5, 3:17; Luke 1:19.

Have a great weekend!!!!

Gratefully In the service of His majesty

THANK YOU!!!
God has arranged for us to have godly companionship, fellow believers, who are joined to us in the bonds of love! And without reservations accompany and support us as we travel through the jungles of adversity and oceans of trouble, which we face in our earthly sojourn. Through this land in which the enemy of our Master and our soul seeks every means by which he may destroy us continually.
Photobucket

When we each take our place in the scheme of God's purpose and place others before ourselves we will be walking in the fulness of God's grace where joy resides, Heaven rejoices and God is magnified in the earth.

May your day be one of wonder and delight as you venture deeper into the realms of God's love and experience the life of the conqueror and overcomer that you were created and equipped to be.
By the One (and ones) who has gone before us to light the way and set the example that will enable us to follow Him wherever He leads. And whose kingdom is within us always waiting for us to release it's benefits to the world by the avenue of selfless love.

See Acts 2:42-47

Sending loving hugs to you and prayers for your welfare as sweet incense to God's throne that the fullness of His glory may decent into your life each day in gigantic proportions. To God be the glory!!!!

In the service of the Master.

JESUS IS ALWAYS NEAR BY TO RESCUE YOU WHEN YOU FALL

Hello!!! How are you today? Are you hungry for more success in you walk with Jesus? It is Jesus desire that you be a fully functional and successful bold ambassador in the kingdom of God. Philemon 1:8-9; Ephesians 6:20. Just as successful as He was in becoming your Savior.


Jesus Saves


After feeding more than five thousand people by multiplying five small loaves of bread and two little fish Jesus commanded His disciples to get into a boat and go to the other side of the lake. (Sea of Galilee a freshwater lake). And after He sent this great multitude away, He Himself went up into the mountain to pray. Time past and evening fell as Jesus communed with His beloved Father. And the disciples found themselves in the middle of the lake tossed about by huge waves stirred up by a great opposing wind which battered them about and caused them to fear for their lives.. By the time Jesus had finished His prayer time with the Father it was the wee hours of the morning. (Between 3 AM and 6 AM) Having sent the disciples on ahead He set out walking across the sea to where they were. However, when they observed Him coming toward them walking on the water they were even more terrified than before. Now they had what they supposed was a ghost coming for them! And Jesus would have passed them by except in their fear they cried out. Mark 6: 48 ( Remember Jesus told them to go to the other side. He never told them to stop in the middle of the lake and fear any storm that stood in their way of obeying His command. He was going to meet them on the other side.) When Jesus heard their cries of terror immediately He stopped and talked with them saying," Be of good cheer! It is I; do not be afraid. Peter responded Lord if that is really you COMMAND me come to you on the water. Jesus simple response was COME! Peter climbed down out of that wind and wave tossed boat in a great surge of instance faith, which enabled Him to walk to Jesus. Having taken His eyes off the wind and walking on the water to Jesus and having solved the ghost problem, Peter once again turned his attention to the boisterous winds that still raged about them. And he was once again overcome by fear and doubt, which immediately caused him to start to sink beneath the turbulent water. In his desperation Peter cried out to Jesus to save Him. And as Jesus stretched out His hand to save Peter He also said, O you of little faith, why did you doubt!!!

Notice Jesus COMMANDED His disciple to get into that boat and GO TO THE OTHER SIDE of the lake. Well, Jesus was fully aware of what they would find in the middle of the lake. Remember what Jesus commands of us He enables us to do by faith. No matter how big the storm is that stands between us and our destination. If He commands it of you, you are able to do it. He ask nothing, absolutely nothing of us that we cannot, by the power of His Spirit through obedience, accomplish. We are just as much His disciples as this group of frightened men were. And just as He command them to do, we are also commanded to do what He says fearlessly by faith without one smidgen of doubt. Just before these men set out on their voyage to cross the Sea of Galilee, which was their commanded destination. They had watched Jesus demonstrate to them that He alone was their sufficiency in life, by multiplying the five loaves of bread and the two fish. He alone was their, and now is our, abundantly sufficient bread of life. Whatever our need, it is found in Him. He demonstrated who He was to these disciples and immediately sent them out to face the raging wind and waves that stood between them and their destination. And when they failed to do that He made it clear to them (and us )that it was because of their small doubting faith. It is undoubting faith that we are to apply to every circumstance of life. Jesus is there to caught us when we fall and cry out to Him. Just as He was with Peter. But, oh have much better for us, and how He rejoices when by faith we determine to walk through the storms of life right into all the promises of His grace.

Matthew14: 22-33; Mark 6:45-52; James 1:6-8.

XXXXX AND OOOOO

Hi my beautiful friend. All is well here! How are things in your life and world? Hope your day is wonderful and that the coming week may be filled with adventure, new and exciting discoveries, and more of the fullness of the Lord active in you then you have ever experienced before. Don't forget to laugh a lot. It is health to your bones. Not to mention the spring it puts in your step, the sparkle it puts in your eye, the song it puts in your heart, and the glow that erupts from your face that leads others to pursue the secret of your contentment and joy.

Love The Musik

The Lord earnestly waits for you my beloved one. With an expectant heart, He is looking and longing to be gracious to you. God watched as His beloved Son suffered and died for you, then He justified you by His grace. He is waiting for you to come to Him with all that is in your heart. To come and lay your burdens at His feet. He longs to be gracious to you. It is in His doing in us and through us what He did in and through Jesus that He is exalted. And His kingdom advanced. He waits for you and bids you come. He is a God of justice! And to you who have been justified in Christ, He is waiting, looking and longing to show you His loving kindness and tender mercy. And all who wait on Him, expecting, looking and longing for Him to work in you willing and doing His good pleasure, are Blessed. Happy, fortunate, to be envied are you who wait on Him expecting His victory, His favor, His love, His peace, His joy, and His matchless, unbroken companionship to be ever present in your life. ! The sole purpose for His blessing you with salvation is that you may live in Him and enjoy Him forever and ever. So release your burdens and heartaches into His Hands. So that He may release the fullness of Christ victory into yours.

CONGRATULATION !!! YOU ARE THE BRIDE OF CHRIST DRESSED IN THE PURITY OF HIS GLORY! (That is if He is your Savior you are His Bride with all the authority to act in His name. Just as if He Himself were speaking, as long as you are speaking the words of His will.)

You are the righteousness of God which He displays to the world of the unbeliever. And all of heaven wonders why. Live boldly and with enthusiasm the life that Jesus has opened before you. Confuse and defeat His enemies by your likeness to Him and your authority in Him. Relish His love and rejoice in His presence. You were created to enjoy Him forever. Live big in Him today and become the fear of the powers of evil who are trying to keep you limited to the finite power of your flesh. You are free to soar with Jesus in the realm where all things are possible to you.

Have a beautiful day gleefully romping through the wonders of Christ's love wrapped in the glorious blanket of His salvation and grace.

Lots of love

GODLY LIVING MADE SIMPLE
pink rose
Do you long to be more successful in your walk with the Lord? The way to living a successful godly life is no secret. It is simple (not easy, but simple)! It comes by walking in the footsteps of the Master. Yield yourself up completely to God's will, spirit, soul and body, and He will preserve you blameless each day until the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. It is He who will keep you prospering spirit, soul and body by His own power, not by the effort of your flesh. However, the decision to yield to His will in matters of the spirit, soul and body must be made by you as the opportunity arises to follow either Him, or His enemy. Follow Him and His power will accomplish in you this wholeness of life ( This Peace, This Shalom), which His word promises. God's faithfulness is oyour pig sweaturance that He will do this and continue to do this until the coming of Christ. See 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24. You fight the good fight of faith and He will fight the battle of the enemy raging against you to keep you a failure. See 1 Timothy 6:12. We are to CONTENT BY FAITH for the truth of the gospel against every adversary even our own flesh. This is our fight. Your fight. We are to seize the prize of wholeness of life while we remain earth bound by faith. Our eternal life began on the day we were born into the family of God. But as long as we remain on earth, we will face the enemy of His kingdom who is working vigorously and relentlessly to keep us from being like Jesus in this earth. The more we become like Jesus the less effective satan's power to deceive and destroy. Godly believers live unto God and for God. They seek His honor in all things. They seek the welfare of His kingdom, which includes the welfare of our brothers and sisters as we seek our own. They seek His way in their thinking, speaking, and actions. When it is God's honor that you strive to accomplish you will make your way prosperous, because He will, in His faithfulness to His own word, bring it to pass. See Joshua 1:7-9. Living a life of godliness is simply knowing the commands of scripture and doing them. This is our fight! We do not have to worry about the storms seething and sizzling against us. Your Faith in the word of God and His faithfulness is the activity that keeps the angels of heaven busy seeing to it that we do not dash our foot against a stone as we abide under the shadow of the Almighty One. Psalm 91:12. We have been granted this privilege and power so we may accomplish the task of making all nations the disciples of Christ our Lord. Psalm 2:8.
May the coming week be filled with the manifestations of the masters power at work within you and in all the circumstances of your life. May the windows of heaven open and the beauty of His grace descend into your life in such massive quantities that you will be like a mighty volcanic eruption of His love and power.
XOXOXO :):):)

Hi friend!! I am glad we are friends. Friends are like the spring sunshine after the rain. The glow of love in the heart of a friend is a bridge that connects us to the heart of the Master of love. Just as springtime reminds us that in God's time He makes all things new and beautiful, friends remind us that God is love and lives in the heart of those who invite Him in.

Spring love it

The heart of friends is the place where love is made a living reality. Though the storms may come and the winds may blow they are mere instruments by which true love grows.

Spring

Have a beautiful weekend!

Hi! May your week be filled with peace, love and happiness. May the joy of the Lord fill your heart and the glory of His presence light your way into the realms of His awesomeness.

JESUS IS THE LION OF JUDAH AND THE LAMB OF GOD. In whom our victory in life is guaranteed. And faith is the substance by which it becomes a reality in our world. Faith is the title deed where by we experience Christ's victory of the cross in our own lives. Hebrews 11:1.

href="http://s224.photobucket.com/albums/dd229/DarrellS8/?action=view¤t=Jesus-1.jpg" target="_blank">Jesus the Lion of Judah and the Lamb of God


Hope you are doing well and experiencing great joy and happiness on your journey of adventure into the depths of God's love, grace and power. You have much to rejoice about. You are a conduit of dynamite power. That alone should entice you to have a bang up week reaching for the heights of the evil defying power, which is available too you, yet unexplored by you. Let your faith explode by stepping out into the realm of the impossible and experiencing that nothing is impossible (no godly thing unattainable) to those who believe. Practice! Practice! Practice! Discover the truth of this for yourself, by applying it to those things that hold you back from being who God's says you are. Look into God's word, as Jesus did (Luke 4:17; Isaiah 61:1,2; Luke 2:52; 3:22; 4:18) find yourself, as He did, and refuse to be less than you were created to be. (Disciples Luke 9:1,2. The Church Acts 1,2,8. Mark 14:14-20.)

Talk to yourself and others in this manner. I am strong in Lord and in the power of His might. Ephesians 6:10. I can do ALL things. God has lovingly and graciously instilled in me, by the knowledge of Christ, that I can do all things, because it is He who strengthens me. Philippians 4:13. I have no strength in and of myself to do anything. John 15:5 Even Jesus, on this earth in the physical body of a man, could do nothing of Himself. But what He saw the Father doing He boldly did in like manner. John 5:19. Likewise what Jesus does I can do in like manner. And have been commanded to do so. All of God's children can do this. And He encourages us to be bold about doing it. We can do this because we are in Christ, as He is in the Father, and He is in us, as the Father is in Him. And in Him all things have become possible to me, if I believe what He says. Matthew 19:26; Mark 9:23; Mark 10:27. The emphasis here is not on what I can achieve. But on my willingness to believe and allow the power of Christ to sustain me in my difficulties and insufficiencies. And also to enhance my enjoyment of the abundance and prosperity which is mine in Christ. Therefore the emphasis is on what He can achieve. And WILL achieve, if I believe and act on this truth. Faith to believe this is the stimulant that I need to move me to act on what God says. And to receive all Christ's sufficiency in facing all of life's circumstance. And God has already given me that Faith. Romans 12:3. But He has left the choice up to me as to whether or not I use it. To use it is to glorify Him. Not to us it is to insult Him and rebel against Him. Which do you choose?

LOTS OF LOVE AND BIG, BIG HUGS. XOXOXOXO :)
