Ten months ago our world turned upside down once again. Many days just
pressing on is very hard, but in the name of Jesus we do. Some days we really
wonder are we really going to make it. I survive by the Word of God and the
readings of His people, music and hanging on to dreams and long ago prophecies.
I believe that truth and love always comes forth at the end and if it hasn't, it
hasn't ended yet.
Only
one thing brought a solution - desperately lunging for Jesus, believing His
authority and power were greater than her massive need. (Anon
or hand of God)
"With
love that knew no fear the Singer caught his torment, wrapped it all in song and
gave it back to him as peace." Dr. Calvin Miller, THE
SINGER
“I'm
well aware of the toil, blood and treasure that it will cost us to maintain our
family and support and defend my children and grandchildren. Yet through all the
gloom I can see the rays of ravishing light and glory. (my paraphrase of a
letter by John Adams to his wife.)
So today we pray for single parents and their children, may the Lord send mercy and grace. We pray for first responders, the military and all the police and firemen who put their lives on the line for us each day. We pray that we all can put differences aside and find some time to be GRATEFUL. We pray for PEACE!

May I live to be a "water pourer" before the Lord.
WATER POURERS!!!By Lana Vawser
The
Lord began to speak to me about many being in a season of wilderness, and many
have felt like they have been in the desert and they have been living upon their
"stored up revelation and history" with the Lord. Many feeling like they have
almost been in a season of WANDERING and WONDERING what's going on. I felt the
Lord wanting to encourage you that He has been building endurance, strength and
character in you in the desert, in that wilderness place and you are coming out
with a greater CAPACITY to carry greater revelation of Him and His Word, greater
mantles that have been birthed in that deep difficult place where you are
constantly pushed and pressed and find that deeper place in Him in the midst of
pain.
In
the desert and wilderness where you have learnt to store and carry what the Lord
has given you and press in for MORE amongst adverse conditions, the Lord is
bringing you out of the desert and you will be WATER POURERS for others. What
you have gleaned and carried in the desert places is about to be ignited and
flow out of you. His living water is about to flood out of you. There is a great
birthing upon the Church right now. I saw this pure, BIBLICALLY based revelation
that has been found in Jesus in the desert flooding out in conversations, in
books, in teaching, in songs, in cds, in writings, in sermon series, in prayer
gatherings bringing incredible healing, salvation and deliverance. Freedom is
about to explode in proportions across the world like we have never seen. Get
ready to hear more and more crazy, amazing, wild testimonies of the power,
healing and love of Jesus and how He saves, delivers and sets free.
Where
the enemy has attempted in many ways to "stop His flow" through you, He is
declaring over you that you will be a PURE FLOW AS YOU CONTINUE TO LIVE LOW.
I'm praying to get beyond survival mode to really thriving in the Lord. I pray that for you, too.
Adding a happy Thanksgiving to you all!
Adding a happy Thanksgiving to you all!
Oh Lord, make us truly grateful for what we have, forgiving for what we
don't have and accepting of where we are in life right now on this Thanksgiving
Day. If we have family together, remember and pray for those who don't. If we
have something to be grateful for, then we will praise Your name, the giver of
all gifts, and never let us forget to count our blessings!
We
put on the garment of praise for the spirit
of heaviness. We pray for all who have experienced a week of loss and burials of
family members. May the Lord's comfort wrap itself around you as only His love
can. We will lift you up to His throne and ask for grace for the day, peace that
can't be understood and the strength to press on.
This excerpt from Streams in the Desert is beautiful for today:
"All-loving Father, sometimes we have walked under starless skies that dripped darkness like drenching rain. We despaired of starshine or moonlight or sunrise. The sullen blackness gloomed above us as if it would last forever. And out of the dark there spoke no soothing voice to mend our broken hearts. We would gladly have welcomed some wild thunder peal to break the torturing stillness of that over-brooding night.

"But Thy winsome whisper of
eternal love spoke more sweetly to our bruised and bleeding souls than any winds
that breathe across Aeolian harps. It was Thy 'still small voice' that spoke to
us. We were listening and we heard. We looked and saw Thy face radiant with the
light of love. And when we heard Thy voice and saw Thy face, new life came back
to us as life comes back to withered blooms that drink the summer
rain."
