Stepping Out of Fear

Last night the women of Celebration church BROUGHT it. God is so amazing how he shows up. I have AGAIN been bogged down in fear. Frozen in mire, unable to step out of my situation and let Jesus step in. FEAR of the things I do not have control of...marriage, finances, children. Prisicilla's words Sunday morning lifted me up. God has gone before and set the velocity of my life. Life is coming my way and I am afraid, relationships, mistakes, illness, being alone, I am treading water and so tired, but the truth is God is not going to give me more than I can handle. I know the truth an it has and will continue to set me free.  I am filled with the spirit, the very authority that Jesus has handed me through the Holy Spirit, but I am too weary, too weary to command the enemy to back off. What is wrong with me...this does not feel like me.

Sunday morning the LOVER of my soul wooed me with words of truth/encouragement. Listening to Priscilla's annointed message...are you the one in a million?...are you the one that is going to wait on the Lord and cross the Jordan when and only when he says go...are you obedient...Jennifer come away with me.

So I stopped treading and collapsed on the float Jesus brought for me, and I was whisked away to a front row seat...to celebrate women, dance, worship, friendship, vision, passion, purpose, being called, letting go of sin, repenting, healing, hearing God's voice, feeling his touch with my hands hands high and lifted up...he whisked me a way to a front row mercy seat.

"Priscilla, if you are reading this, I was the one. The one the word was for. I am desired for months maybe years to spring up in the morning leaving the tears on my pillow, leaving the anxious lies in the abyss and jump into Jesus's arms. This morning I rested in his word and I get it. I get it. I GET IT. This is my protection, my refuge, my rock and my shelter. He loves me adores me and knows that I can do all things through him.

So today I surrender the obstacle of fear and I get that it is not a quarterly or annual thing. This is a sweet spot I can come to EVERY DAY to be refreshed and prepared to step on the path that the LOVER of my SWEET SOUL has ordained for me.

I AM...in HIM.

Bitterness Roots Deep

Jeremiah 1:9-11 Then the LORD reached out his hand and touched my mouth and said to me, “I have put my words in your mouth. See, today I appoint you over nations and kingdoms to uproot and tear down, to destroy and overthrow, to build and to plant.” The word of the LORD came to me: “What do you see, Jeremiah?” “I see the branch of an almond tree,” I replied. I see this uprooting is happening in my spirit first. Lord uproot the bitterness and tear down the anger, destroy the guilt and overthrow the shame in my heart so that I might build and plant love and peace and patience and selfcontrol. I am listening and I respond to your call. You have appointed me over nations and kingdoms to uproot and restore. The word of the LORD came to me: "what do you see Jennifer?"

arthouse EVENTS to open SUMMER 2014

May the words of my mouth and the meditations of my heart be pleasing to you…AMEN It is hard for me to put words to this post. It does not surprise me the minute I typed the words "it is hard to put words to this post" The following lyrics came forth from my radio. "Nothing formed against me shall stand You hold the whole world in your hand I am holding on to your promises you are faithful you are faithful I know who Goes before me I know who stands behind the God of angel armies is always by my side the one who reigns forever he is a friend of mine The God of Angel Army is always by my side. " The first time I ever heard this song was the Sunday before my sweet Bonnie B passed away. I have struggled for YEARS with stepping into the plan and purpose God has called me to. It was very clear to me in 1996 when God spoke to me audibly in the main sanctuary of St. John the Divine. God said, "I have a job for you to do." The message that day ...

LENT DAY: 180 Degrees

Lent is the season of Repentance a change of thought to correct a wrong, gain forgiveness from a person who is wronged, confession to God, ceasing sin against God, and resolving to live according to His will. It involved admitting and promising not to repeat the action, turning 180 degrees and walking in the opposite direction in order to reverse the harmful effects of the wrong. "Opponents must be gently instructed, in the hope that God will grant them repentance leading them to a knowledge of the truth" (2 Timothy 2:25) Lent is also the season of Discipline , systematic instruction given to to train students to follow a particular code of conduct. "Discipline yourself for the purpose of godliness" (1Tm 4:7-8) . Stepping into the season of Lent we have confession, forgiveness and change on our mind. We are preparing our body, mind and spirit for the celebration of Easter. Before we get let go in the freedom of the ascension, we must get close to the Son of Go...
