Vision

A few days back I had a vision of Jesus. I was praying my usual devotional and somehow during my prayers I had saw myself in a field much like this :

The sun was high and the flowers were yellow all around. It was a field with wildflowers. Before me I can see Jesus walking and I was drawn to follow Him. I couldn't see His face but He had very curly black hair that extended to his neck. Something like this but longer and hair is really black :

He was wearing a long robe not white but beige. I think I was young at that time because He seemed tall. I was following Him.

I was so happy that time. Though the vision is short it was so meaningful to see Jesus even with His back turned.

Thankful and grateful! I wrote this so I won't forget.

Taking the position for God

A Word by Ueli Schaer Next Gen Pastor of Prophetic Training School

When you look at police officers, you see that they have badges to show their authority. Their uniforms display their position and unless you are a glutton for punishment, you obey the speed limit. You give respect and you also know that you are well protected. They are there to serve and, having authority, everyone must submit to the laws that they stand for.

God has given you authority in your realm. He has set you up for success, and He’s given you the authority in that realm, to make sure that your circumstances submit. All you need to do is to stand in position. He says to you:

“Mighty warrior, you are indeed here to fight and to defend My kingdom. I have given you authority in the land that I have set your feet on, and on that land, you will always find blessing. For I have chosen you and called you to be My warrior and I have given you this exact place where you are, to defend and to reign, in My name. Today I give to you a new armor because you have grown, and I have seen your faithfulness to Me. With this new armor, comes the authority to command your circumstances into line. When you stand in the position given to you, you will flourish, because you have authority in that realm.  In My armor you are safe, and you don’t need to be afraid of the troops of the enemy. As long as you stand in the position I have given to you, you will see success. As you stay under my covering, listening to my commands to carry them out, your feet will find solid ground and your footing will be sure.  So do not listen to the voice that leads you astray, that is subtle and wants to lure you away from the place that I have positioned you. For out of position, there is chaos, but within your realm of authority, you will find favor.  It is enough to stand in My authority. It is enough to be in position, for as you hold your position, I will give you the grace to fulfill your calling as My mighty warrior,” says the Lord.

Wisdom

It's highly unusual to write 2 blogs in one day but I can't help it because I would like to remember this and remind myself of this always.

I always make sure to follow my dear friend's blog not only because I want to know how she is but there are so many nuggets of wisdom. 

"A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in a setting of silver" - Proverbs 25:11

So today I read her blog with these wise words :

"I faced many situations where I was made to feel I'm not good enough. It would get to me, but Dad guided me through it. He taught me that if criticism is not constructive, it's probably politically motivated.  There was a time it eroded my self-esteem. It took awhile to heal myself, but when I found my strength again I knew how to handle those kind of people. 

Believe in yourself and your abilities. There will always be people who would try to put you down. Just keep doing what is right and you won't go wrong. Be the best latak of all. "

Am thankful that I had the opportunity to meet and work with her.

Community Pantries

Thankful for wins in life!

Today I received news from a community pantry that they received the vegetables that we sent. It was very special to me because it fed over 220 people which I translate to possibly families. 

I am so thankful that we have pantries that are starting all over the metro, to help feed families who lack especially during this time. My heart is so full and thankful to our Lord that He enabled me to be able to bless other people with His blessings :) 

I remember this bible verse :

11“The Lord will give you prosperity in the land he swore to your ancestors to give you, blessing you with many children, numerous livestock, and abundant crops. 12The Lord will send rain at the proper time from his rich treasury in the heavens and will bless all the work you do. You will lend to many nations, but you will never need to borrow from them. 13If you listen to these commands of the Lord your God that I am giving you today, and if you carefully obey them, the Lord will make you the head and not the tail, and you will always be on top and never at the bottom. 14You must not turn away from any of the commands I am giving you today, nor follow after other gods and worship them.

            - Deuteronomy 28:11-14 

        

Outside My Comfort Zone

Many times I find myself being placed in a situation where I question if that place is really where I should be?

I appreciate receiving thoughts from this blog. Today's blog discusses situations that we find ourselves in that's outside our comfort zone. I quote : 

"The hardest part of this transition was trying to handle all the fear and anxiety that comes with a big move made at the last minute."

The feeling is unsettling, uncomfortable and many times awkward. I agree with the article that says to just love and trust. That's what I do. I just try to do everything in love and trust that God will do the rest. It's not easy when you're used to controlling everything that happens around you. But between us and a God who knows your story from beginning till the end, I choose to trust.

"We need to leave room for God to do His job. He is always rooting for us, and He provides for us the things we cannot provide for ourselves."
