======== Spring has arrived and it brings with it, new ideas, creativity, our hopes and goals and new promises. A time of happiness and newness. But a thought rages in my mind that says, what happened last Spring? And the one b4 it. What about those who have lived b4 us and what can we learn from it? Those who have lived b4 us experienced the same things we go through, they surely had their dreams and hopes as we do. So what encouragement can we gain this month from all this? It is my deepest desire that this month, I will be more focused on completing things than beginning them, for when I do, I find order instead of chaos in my life, and with it, the security we long for. Please be encouraged and blessed, there is HOPE 4u.

Use Wisdom in everything u do that both your heart and your life shout loudly, "My God reigns!" U would never say with your mouth that there is no God. But do u sometimes say it by your actions? Dont make the foolish mistake of publicly proclaiming Jesus as your Lord, and then privately denying Him with one little action at a time. U may think sinning a little here and there wont matter. U may go 2 an immoral movie or have a gossip session about the Pastor, ignoring God's command 2 the contrary. Let your life shout loudly, "My God reigns!"

If someone says something that rubs u the wrong way and u catch yourself being offended, get right down on your knees and repent b4 God. Do not let the devil steal the Word from u. Reject those 'feeling's of offense. Give yourself 2 that person in love and prayer. When u are rooted and grounded in Love, u will never stumble.

18APR - In a vision I saw a little pink pig. It looked pretty clean and was on a grassy knoll. But, it began 2 root around and dig as if 2 make a wallow.

It's too hard 2 keep praying; it's too hard 2 continue 2 war against the enemy; it's too hard 2 overcome the flesh. The enemy wants us 2 give up and go back 2 wallowing in the mire. The Lord says, refuse 2 give up. Your walk in the Spirit will prepare and cause u 2 overcome the flesh, the world, and the devil.
2 Peter 2:20-22 - For if, after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overcome, the latter end is worse 4 them than the beginning. For it would have been better 4 them not 2 have known the way of righteousness, than having known it, 2 turn from the holy commandment delivered 2 them. But it has happened 2 them according 2 the true proverb: "A dog returns 2 his own vomit," and, "a sow, having washed, 2 her wallowing in the mire."

26Apr - Press On in Patience
When the results of your faith seem slow in coming, do not give up! Be patient! Patience is just as important as faith when it comes 2 receiving from God. Patience will encourage u 2 hold steady in the promises of God. Patience has the courage 2 refuse the lie of satan that says the Word is not working. Patience will not draw back in fear, but will press forward in faith until the answer comes. U will surely receive the promise of God when u continue put the Word 1st w/patience.
Hebrews 6:11-12 - And I desire that each one of u show the same diligence 2 the full assurance of Hope until the end, that u do not become sluggish, but imitate those who through Faith and Patience inherit the promises.
26APR - Beloved, u are in an equipping phase. U are being equipped and given proper equipment 2 accomplish what I have set b4 u 2 do in the days ahead. U may even be surprised by the things I Am preparing u for, but I WILL show u the way. There is no place in this transition for anxiety or fear that u will not be ready. When I Am in the lead, your steps are perfectly ordered, says the Lord. Let Me move u.
Isaiah 52:12 - For u shall not go out with haste, Nor go by flight; For the LORD will go b4 u, And the God of Israel will be your rear guard.
27Apr - Obedience: No Small Thing
No matter how insignificant God's Instructions may seem, obeying them is not a small thing. Minor disobediences will affect the flow of the Spirit just like the major ones will. If u are feeling dried up in the spirit, backtrack and find the 'last' thing God told u 2 do that u did not do yet--and do it quickly and now! Pick up where u left off and do what God directed. It is those simple acts of obedience that will make your spiritual house stand--or fall.Luke 6:49 - Jesus said, "..he who hears My Words and does nothing is like man who built a house on the earth w/o a Foundation, against which the stream beat vehemently; and immediately it fell. And the ruin of that house was great."
27APR - You've heard it said, "Do not let the sun go down on your wrath." But, I also tell u not to let any day end with strife, contention, or division in your own heart or between u and someone else. Seek peace and let it be established in u and in your environment. Set your mind on things of the Spirit and not on trouble in the world. Let your soul be established in righteousness, peace and joy, says the Lord. This is especially crucial in the current political climate in your nation and around the world.
1 Peter 3:11 - Let him turn away from evil and do good; let him seek peace and pursue it.
28Apr - Follow Your Dream
Have u ever had a Holy Spirit inspired dream, a dream of doing something really great 4 Jesus? The Living God is w/u! Dare 2 follow your dream! U do not need a history of successes behind u 2 answer God's call. when the devil tells u, u are a failure and u will never be able 2 do what God has called u 2 do, tell him all u need is the Presence of the Lord. U and God are a team, u do not do it all by yourself, but w/God's help as your partner in all things; U do not need a string of spiritual credentials. U have all u need--the Spirit of the Living God.Exodus 3:11-12 - But Moses said 2 God, "Who am I that I should go 2 Pharaoh, and that I should bring the children of Israel out of Egypt?" So God said, "I will certainly be w/u. And this shall be a sign 2 u that I have sent u: When u have brought the people out of Egypt, u shall serve God on this mountain."
29Apr - Don't Let the devil Put One Over on U
The next time the devil tries 2 make things look as tho God's Word is not going 2 work 4 u, just say, "I do not care about appearances. I believe the Word and I refuse 2 doubt it." There is a deceiver at work in the world. A deceiver who is busy doing the same thing he has been doing ever since the Garden of Eden--tricking mankind into believing God's Word is not true. He is a master deceiver! Learn 2 trust and rely on the Word in such a way that the father of lies will never be able 2 put one over on u!John 8:44 - Jesus said, "U are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father u want 2do, He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, bcoz there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it...
30Apr - Be a Cheerful Giver
Put the 'pain' of giving behind. Cheerful, full of faith--even hilarious giving--is the Key that Unlocks the Treasure House of God. The concept of 'giving til it hurts' did not come from God, but the enemy 2 keep your blessings from u. God would rather u give 10.00$ w/joy than 20.00$ grudgingly. God wants u 2 give w/eager willingness. With a heart full of love when u give. Repent 4 the times u have given grudgingly. Ask God 2 give u a willing heart. Your blessings will abound when u become a cheerful, joyous, hilarious giver!
30APR - THE TRUMPET by
BILL BURNS:
I hear the Spirit of the Lord saying, My
people have forgotten 2 come to Me in their time of need in faith, believing
that I will interact on their behalf. So, today, I say come. Come and be
renewed. Come and be healed. Come and be the child that I have called u to
be. Come and walk with Me in relationship. Come and be with Me in Spirit. Let
the power of My Spirit invade your lives. Let My voice be a beckoning power 2 u. Get up this day from your place and come unto Me with the full assurance
that I will touch u; I will speak with u; and I will nurture u. I,
Myself, will come.
30APR - You are at a point
when the order of the day is decisive action. Indecision will only hinder your
flow in the Spirit. Seek My face and examine your own heart and then make
choices based on what u know, understand, and desire. The river of My Spirit
is moving rapidly at this time, and being in the flow will be exciting and
exhilarating, says the Lord.
Psalms 37:4 - Delight yourself also
in the LORD, And He shall give u the desires of your
heart.
2Corinthians 9:7-8 - So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; 4 God Loves a cheerful giver.
God Bless u, and stay encouraged!
