In Today’s blog I want to share with you a power-packed revelation that is fire being poured out into our lives….a revelation that should if your not already set you on fire! It is time for God’s people to step out of their comfort zones…their bubbles of safety…We have to stand up and be a people who will not only stand in the gap but take The Authority that has been imparted to us by Our Father and be MOUNTAIN MOVERS!!!
We need to stop feeling sorry for ourselves for the positions we are in and take responseabilty for our actions….We need to Repent. Renounce. Recieve. WE need to be filled with FIRE! So that when we face evil…..instead of them coming after us….We go after them!!! And trust me when they see fire! They are going to run from us becasue they will see the WRATH OF GOD IN AND ON US!
In the book of Ezekel Chapter 37 it states:
1 The LORD took hold of me, and I was carried away by the Spirit of the LORD to a valley filled with bones. 2 He led me around among the old, dry bones that covered the valley floor. They were scattered everywhere across the ground. 3 Then he asked me, “Son of man, can these bones become living people again?”"O Sovereign LORD,” I replied, “you alone know the answer to that.”
4 Then he said to me, “Speak to these bones and say, Dry bones, listen to the word of the LORD! 5 This is what the Sovereign LORD says: Look! I am going to breathe into you and make you live again! 6 I will put flesh and muscles on you and cover you with skin. I will put breath into you, and you will come to life. Then you will know that I am the LORD.’”
7 So I spoke these words, just as he told me. Suddenly as I spoke, there was a rattling noise all across the valley. The bones of each body came together and attached themselves as they had been before. 8 Then as I watched, muscles and flesh formed over the bones. Then skin formed to cover their bodies, but they still had no breath in them.
9 Then he said to me, “Speak to the winds and say: This is what the Sovereign LORD says: Come, O breath, from the four winds! Breathe into these dead bodies so that they may live again.’” 10 So I spoke as he commanded me, and the wind entered the bodies, and they began to breathe. They all came to life and stood up on their feet – a great army of them.
11 Then he said to me, “Son of man, these bones represent the people of Israel. They are saying, ‘We have become old, dry bones – all hope is gone. 12 Now give them this message from the Sovereign LORD: O my people, I will open your graves of exile and cause you to rise again. Then I will bring you back to the land of Israel. When this happens, O my people, you will know that I am the LORD. 14 I will put my Spirit in you, and you will live and return home to your own land. Then you will know that I am the LORD. You will see that I have done everything just as I promised. I, the LORD, have spoken!”
15 Again a message came to me from the LORD: 16 “Son of man, take a stick and carve on it these words: ‘This stick represents Judah and its allied tribes. Then take another stick and carve these words on it: The stick represents the northern tribes of Israel. 17 Now hold them together in your hand as one stick. 18 When your people ask you what your actions mean, 19 say to them, This is what the Sovereign LORD says: I will take the northern tribes and join them to Judah. I will make them one stick in my hand.
20 Then hold out the sticks you have inscribed, so the people can see them. 21 And give them this message from the Sovereign LORD: I will gather the people of Israel from among the nations. I will bring them home to their own land from the places where they have been scattered. 22 I will unify them into one nation in the land. One king will rule them all; no longer will they be divided into two nations.
23 They will stop polluting themselves with their detestable idols and other sins, for I will save them from their sinful backsliding. I will cleanse them. Then they will truly be my people, and I will be their God. 24 “My servant David will be their king, and they will have only one shepherd. They will obey my regulations and keep my laws.
25 They will live in the land of Israel where their ancestors lived, the land I gave my servant Jacob. They and their children and their grandchildren after them will live there forever, generation after generation. And my servant David will be their prince forever.
26 And I will make a covenant of peace with them, an everlasting covenant. I will give them their land and multiply them, and I will put my Temple among them forever. 27 I will make my home among them. I will be their God, and they will be my people. 28 And since my Temple will remain among them forever, the nations will know that I, the LORD, have set Israel apart for myself to be holy.”
I really felt the Lord Direct me to Bold Certain Wording….This is a direct Word ….So I thought I would just put them together as let’ see how it reads…
1 The LORD took hold of me, and I was carried away by the Spirit of the LORD to a valley filled with bones. 4 Then he said to me, “Speak to these bones and say, Dry bones, listen to the word of the LORD! 5 This is what the Sovereign LORD says: Look! I am going to breathe into you and make you live again! 7 So I spoke these words, just as he told me. Suddenly as I spoke, there was a rattling noise all across the valley.
9 Then he said to me, “Speak to the winds and say: This is what the Sovereign LORD says: Come, O breath, from the four winds! Breathe into these dead bodies so that they may live again.’” 10 So I spoke as he commanded me, and the wind entered the bodies, and they began to breathe. They all came to life and stood up on their feet – a great army of them. ‘We have become old, dry bones – all hope is gone. I will cause you to rise again. When this happens, you will know that I am the LORD. 14 I will put my Spirit in you, and you will live Then you will know that I am the LORD. You will see that I have done everything just as I promised. I, the LORD, have spoken!”
I will gather people from among the nations. 22 I will unify them One king will rule them all; 23 They will stop polluting themselves with their detestable idols and other sins, for I will save them from their sinful backsliding. I will cleanse them. Then they will truly be my people, and I will be their God. They will obey. They and their children and their grandchildren after them will live there forever, generation after generation. 26 And I will make a covenant of peace with them, an everlasting covenant. 27 I will make my home among them. I will be their God, and they will be my people.
Oh my gosh!!! That is powerful…I was just bolding what I thought the Lord was directing me to bold….and then when we put the words together WOW! Can you see the Lord speaking to you?? This is so powerful and Thank the Lord Jesus for the powerful Word given to us!
Let’s rise up and give ourselves to the Lord completely and fill us with Fire so we can reach into the heart of darkness…and pull others to freedom by the awsome power of GOD!
Be Blessed!

Luke Chapter 4

Then Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, left the Jordan River. He was led by the Spirit to go out into the wilderness, 2 where the Devil tempted him for forty days. He ate nothing all that time and was very hungry. 3 Then the Devil said to him, “If you are the Son of God, change this stone into a loaf of bread.” 4 But Jesus told him, “No! The Scriptures say, ‘People need more than bread for their life.”
5 Then the Devil took him up and revealed to him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. 6 The Devil told him, “I will give you the glory of these kingdoms and authority over them – because they are mine to give to anyone I please. 7 I will give it all to you if you will bow down and worship me.”
8 Jesus replied, “The Scriptures say, ‘You must worship the Lord your God; serve only him. ” 9 Then the Devil took him to Jerusalem, to the highest point of the Temple, and said, “If you are the Son of God, jump off! 10 For the Scriptures say, ‘He orders his angels to protect and guard you.
11 And they will hold you with their hands to keep you from striking your foot on a stone.” 12 Jesus responded, “The Scriptures also say, ‘Do not test the Lord your God.” 13 When the Devil had finished tempting Jesus, he left him until the next opportunity came.
14 Then Jesus returned to Galilee, filled with the Holy Spirit’s power. Soon he became well known throughout the surrounding country. 15 He taught in their synagogues and was praised by everyone. 16 When he came to the village of Nazareth, his boyhood home, he went as usual to the synagogue on the Sabbath and stood up to read the Scriptures.
17 The scroll containing the messages of Isaiah the prophet was handed to him, and he unrolled the scroll to the place where it says: 18 “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, for he has appointed me to preach Good News to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim that captives will be released, that the blind will see, that the downtrodden will be freed from their oppressors, 19 and that the time of the Lord’s favor has come.”
20 He rolled up the scroll, handed it back to the attendant, and sat down. Everyone in the synagogue stared at him intently. 21 Then he said, “This Scripture has come true today before your very eyes!”
22 All who were there spoke well of him and were amazed by the gracious words that fell from his lips. “How can this be?” they asked. “Isn’t this Joseph’s son?” 23 Then he said, “Probably you will quote me that proverb, ‘Physician, heal yourself’ – meaning, ‘Why don’t you do miracles here in your hometown like those you did in Capernaum?’
24 But the truth is, no prophet is accepted in his own hometown. 25 “Certainly there were many widows in Israel who needed help in Elijah’s time, when there was no rain for three and a half years and hunger stalked the land.
26 Yet Elijah was not sent to any of them. He was sent instead to a widow of Zarephath – a foreigner in the land of Sidon. 27 Or think of the prophet Elisha, who healed Naaman, a Syrian, rather than the many lepers in Israel who needed help.” 28 When they heard this, the people in the synagogue were furious. 29 Jumping up, they mobbed him and took him to the edge of the hill on which the city was built. They intended to push him over the cliff, 30 but he slipped away through the crowd and left them.
31 Then Jesus went to Capernaum, a town in Galilee, and taught there in the synagogue every Sabbath day. 32 There, too, the people were amazed at the things he said, because he spoke with authority. 33 Once when he was in the synagogue, a man possessed by a demon began shouting at Jesus,
34 “Go away! Why are you bothering us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are – the Holy One sent from God.” 35 Jesus cut him short. “Be silent!” he told the demon. “Come out of the man!” The demon threw the man to the floor as the crowd watched; then it left him without hurting him further. 36 Amazed, the people exclaimed, “What authority and power this man’s words possess! Even evil spirits obey him and flee at his command!”
37 The story of what he had done spread like wildfire throughout the whole region. 38 After leaving the synagogue that day, Jesus went to Simon’s home, where he found Simon’s mother-in-law very sick with a high fever. “Please heal her,” everyone begged. 39 Standing at her bedside, he spoke to the fever, rebuking it, and immediately her temperature returned to normal. She got up at once and prepared a meal for them.
40 As the sun went down that evening, people throughout the village brought sick family members to Jesus. No matter what their diseases were, the touch of his hand healed every one. 41 Some were possessed by demons; and the demons came out at his command, shouting, “You are the Son of God.” But because they knew he was the Messiah, he stopped them and told them to be silent.
42 Early the next morning Jesus went out into the wilderness. The crowds searched everywhere for him, and when they finally found him, they begged him not to leave them. 43 But he replied, “I must preach the Good News of the Kingdom of God in other places, too, because that is why I was sent.” 44 So he continued to travel around, preaching in synagogues throughout Judea.

PSALM 118 One of My Favorites!

Filed under Bible Stories, Current Issues, Grace of God, Love Of God, Spiritual Warfare, Supernatural, Uncategorized
THIS IS ONE OF MY PERSONAL FAVORITES! I LOVE THIS BECAUSE IT IS SO POWERFUL AND FULL OF GOD’S LOVE AND PROTECTION!
1 Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good! His faithful love endures forever. 2 Let the congregation of Israel repeat: “His faithful love endures forever.” 3 Let Aaron’s descendants, the priests, repeat: “His faithful love endures forever.”
4 Let all who fear the LORD repeat: “His faithful love endures forever.” 5 In my distress I prayed to the LORD, and the LORD answered me and rescued me. 6 The LORD is for me, so I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?
7 Yes, the LORD is for me; he will help me. I will look in triumph at those who hate me. 8 It is better to trust the LORD than to put confidence in people. 9 It is better to trust the LORD than to put confidence in princes.
10 Though hostile nations surrounded me, I destroyed them all in the name of the LORD. 11 Yes, they surrounded and attacked me, but I destroyed them all in the name of the LORD. 12 They swarmed around me like bees; they blazed against me like a roaring flame. But I destroyed them all in the name of the LORD.
13 You did your best to kill me, O my enemy, but the LORD helped me. 14 The LORD is my strength and my song; he has become my victory. 15 Songs of joy and victory are sung in the camp of the godly. The strong right arm of the LORD has done glorious things!
16 The strong right arm of the LORD is raised in triumph. The strong right arm of the LORD has done glorious things! 17 I will not die, but I will live to tell what the LORD has done. 18 The LORD has punished me severely, but he has not handed me over to death.
19 Open for me the gates where the righteous enter, and I will go in and thank the LORD. 20 Those gates lead to the presence of the LORD, and the godly enter there. 21 I thank you for answering my prayer and saving me! 22 The stone rejected by the builders has now become the cornerstone.
23 This is the LORD’s doing, and it is marvelous to see. 24 This is the day the LORD has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it. 25 Please, LORD, please save us. Please, LORD, please give us success. 26 Bless the one who comes in the name of the LORD. We bless you from the house of the LORD. 27 The LORD is God, shining upon us. Bring forward the sacrifice and put it on the altar.
28 You are my God, and I will praise you! You are my God, and I will exalt you! 29 Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good! His faithful love endures forever.
Be Blessed!

Power Scripture From The Word Of God!

“For Satan himself transforms himself into an ANGEL OF LIGHT. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also transform themselves into ministers of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works.” (2 Corinthians 11:14)
“Beloved, do not believe every spirit, BUT TEST THE SPIRITS, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world.
By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world.” (1 John 4:1-4)
“Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.” (Matthew 10:16)
“Go your way; behold, I send you out as lambs among wolves.” (Luke 10:3)
“Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.” (1 Peter 5:8)
“Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the mutilation!” (Philippians 3:2)
“Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness? And what accord has Christ with Belial? Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever? And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of God.” (2 Corinthians 6:14)
“For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of the light … And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them. For it is shameful even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret. But all things that are exposed are made manifest by the light, for whatever makes manifest is light.” (Ephesians 5:8)
“The righteous should chose his friends carefully, for the way of the wicked leads them astray.” (Proverbs 12:26)
“Do not be carried about with various and strange doctrines.” (Hebrews 13:9)
“If anyone comes to you and does not bring this doctrine, do not receive him into your house nor greet him; for he who greets him shares in his evil deeds.” (2 John 1:10)
“Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons.” (1 Timothy 4:1)
“For false christs and false prophets will arise and show great signs and wonders, so as to deceive, if possible, even the elect.” (Matthew 24:24)
“Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits.” (Matthew 7:15)
“Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ.” (Colossians 2:8)
“Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience. Therefore do not be partakers with them.” (Ephesians 5:6)

PROPHECY: A WORD FROM THE LORD FROM ANDREA
September 21, 2008 by Tina
Filed under Current Issues, Grace of God, Love Of God, Supernatural, Uncategorized
THESE WORDS WERE GIVEN TO ANDREA. SHE WALKS A VERY CLOSE WALK WITH THE LORD. I VERY MUCH ENJOY TALKING WITH HER…..SHE IS SO ON FIRE FOR THE LORD, SHE BREATHES FIRE INTO ME EVERY TIME WE TALK! SHE IS AN INSPIRATION AS SHE CONTINUES TO ENCOURAGE ME TO SEEK THE LORD WITH ALL MY HEART.
I AM SO GRATEFUL OF HER PRAYERS AND HER ABILITY TO COMFORT THOSE AROUND HER. SHE TRULY IS A TREASURED GIFT FROM ABOVE. THESE ARE SOME WORDS SHE RECIEVED FROM THE LORD
“I speak. My Voice thunders. Yes, heaven and earth shake at the sound of My Voice. But you, be not moved. Stand. Stand firm. Stand still and see My glory.
Is there anything too hard for me? Trust. Trust and obey. You will see My glory. You will see My goodness. I have spoken it. I will perform it. It shall come to pass.
Who can overthrow My throne? Who can disannul My Word? Be at peace and rest. Enter faith’s rest. You have done your part – now trust Me to perform My Word. It is eternal.
It cannot lie. It cannot fail.
It cannot return void.”
#1
“Communion is not just an act – it is a state of being. When I said I stand at the door and knock, if any man open I will come in and sup with him, I was not speaking of merely having a meal with him, but becoming a meal for him. You feast on Me daily – I have become your very sustenance – your food, your drink. In doing so, you have become a meal for Me; a meal, a resting place – My sanctuary.”
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
#2
I had read that the life of a Christian is nothing less than holy desire. The Lord spoke to me “I say, the life of a good Christian is nothing more than holy desire.”
What He was saying is that our life is defined by nothing else than the degree of our holy desire for Him.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
#3
The Word says that the end times will be as in the days of Noah:
The Lord spoke:
“Noah was a righteous man, a faithful man, a holy man. Noah’s heart was mine. If this were your day, could I trust and choose you as I did Noah?
Come into the ark of my cross with your loved ones. Stay there – abide there – not for 40 days, but forever. Forever I say, the cross will be enough – for protection, for safety, for deliverance, for healing, for all you and your loved ones need.
Live I say in the shadow of the cross.
Live at the cross
Live by the cross
Live for the cross
Enbrace the cross. Embrace the lifestyle that the cross demands. Die, that you might live. Die, that others might live.
Live, I say at the cross daily. Start and end your day at the cross. Live throughout the day at the cross.
The crucified life is the only way to the resurrected life. It was for Me; it is for you; so it is for your loved ones.”
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
“For the joy that was set before Me I endured the cross, despising the shame. It was joy that kept Noah through all the persecution and shame. It was the joy of knowing Me and fellowshipping with Me that kept Noah. So, too, knowing and fellowshipping with Me shall keep you in these end days through all.”
