about

I am a child of God, a wife, and a mother of three, living a joy-filled life anchored in Jesus Christ. I believe deeply in the power of love, redemption, and the victory of light over darkness. Following Christ has led me on the greatest adventure marked by faith, purpose, and awe at His goodness. Each day is filled with miracles, beauty, and reminders of God’s faithfulness. The Lord rescues all who call on His name. Jesus is always the answer when you cry out to Him, He will save you, help you, and lead you into truth and freedom.

  • Forgiveness

    There are moments that every person will face where they are given a chance to help or harm others, and those are usually the times when we feel our absolute lowest and have been crushed by the very people that we are now given an opportunity to help. This has happened to me countless times and I wish that I could say that I always got it right, but that wouldn’t be correct. Unfortunately in a heated moment when things have escalated to the point of voices raised and feelings hurt, we often want to defend and destroy more than we feel like blessing and forgiving.

    It takes God’s grace to remind us that nothing is impossible and if Jesus was able to hang on a cross completely disfigured from the horrific abuse and torture that he endured by sinners, I am pretty sure that He can give us the grace we need to endure the hateful things people do knowingly or unknowingly that try to wound us.

    It is only when we truly understand how great God’s love is for us that we are able to rise above the world and become a blessing to the people still in darkness. If we become part of that darkness by holding onto offenses, it will only cause us to become like the people who harmed us. It is in love and grace that we are able to forgive. Ask the Lord to search your heart and make it clean.

    We all need a little more love and God is Love so let’s exalt what is good and turn away from everything else.

  • The Joy of Belonging to God

    www.bible.com/bible/59/luk.10.17-20.esv

    “The seventy-two returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in your name!” And he said to them, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. Behold, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall hurt you. Nevertheless, do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.””

    ‭‭Luke‬ ‭10:17-20‬ ‭ESV‬‬

    Knowing that you are accepted and that your name is written in the Book of Life is a cause for daily celebration and praise to God. To be grateful and rejoice in the Holy Spirit is such a wonderful and blessed life. To have peace no matter what is happening in the world around you. To be free from condemnation and to experience the Father, Son and Holy Spirit as your normal, is something that everyone should expect and seek to experience by believing the Bible as Truth and rejecting all other reasoning and rationale.

    When I believed what God said, I received it. When I questioned God’s goodness and mercy for my life and believed that I had to do something to earn Salvation or acceptance, I was in darkness. All that was required of me was to believe on Jesus and to trust God’s plan for my life.

    I didn’t have to beg God to help me, because He had already sent Jesus to finish it all and now I can receive the Truth and live in the amazing Grace and glory of God. Because I chose to believe and let go of wrong thinking.

    It’s good to believe, but to doubt is to be blind and deaf to all that God has for us. So ONLY BELIEVE!

    It’s good to repent and ask the Lord to show you what you need to understand and what you need to be doing.

    I know that there is nothing better than accepting Jesus and being accepted into the Kingdom of God. I hope and pray that everyone has experiential knowledge of God so that they will never have to fear again, but can receive everything they need to overcome this world by the blood of Jesus and the Word of their testimony.

  • He Gave us Wings to Soar

    When the Lord gives you His Word, it is a sword and when He covers and provides for you, He gives you wings to escape the snares of the world that come from lust and corruption. It is when people try to provide for themselves another way of escape or provision that they get snared and hooked by the ways of the world.

    Surrender and let God be your everything always and you will NEVER go wrong.

  • Never Again Fear Evil

    www.bible.com/59/zep.3.14-15.esv

    God is so faithful and good. He truly has taken away our judgments and poured His perfect love over us and into us to wash away all fear. We are such a blessed people in Christ! I will sing and praise His name in every nation until all know the Salvation that saves and sets free! Thank you Jesus!

  • Darkness is Passing Away

    All Issues Resolved by One Solution

    January 6, 2022

    January is Human Trafficking Awareness Month, and many will likely be recognized as victims or perpetrators to this issue. There will be many plans and projects in place for all people to participate in helping make a difference through financial support to the workers rescuing and helping to restore the lives, as well as opportunities to serve by providing material items or even opening homes and hearts to share what they have with those who need a new start. There are operations set up by the FBI and local police and sheriffs departments that arrest traffickers and save the victims which are often times youth and even victims as young as infants have been recovered.

    This issue is how I came to know the Lord was real and wanting to help end these evils and heal all the people suffering in darkness without hope or help for most of them.

    I poured out my heart before the Lord. I was in a place of desperation for the innocent children being destroyed. I didn’t have a relationship with the Lord then and had never read the Bible or known what was the Will of God. I just assumed that God had to care about us or he wouldn’t have created us. It was after all of my other efforts to see hope and changes had failed and been ignored. I was ready to give up completely.

    I suddenly had a thought that maybe I could pray and God would hear and help these children be rescued before they are destroyed by evil.

    I asked for God to help by saving one child a day, because I didn’t want to ask too much or cause Him too much work by demanding a bunch of stuff that would be difficult to do according to my human mind.

    Three days later I was told about a girl that was specifically rescued in Phoenix, because of my prayer that night. The police received an anonymous tip from a caller that gave them the exact location of where the girl was being held after she was kidnapped from a park where she was living homeless after leaving foster care. The call was made shortly after I prayed that night. All of this was not clearly known at first, but I insisted that the safe house where the girl was staget the details from the police, so that I would know without any doubts that this was an act of God on behalf of one broken-hearted woman willing to cry out for divine intervention for the suffering of others to end.

    I didn’t allow any doubts to fill my prayer that night but I actually told the Lord that I would just believe that He was going to do it and I didn’t need any proof of who was saved, because I would just believe a life was spared by His intervention.

    The only way that I could know all of that was because the Lord quickly responded and told me that the girl was alive because I prayed. He then told me to pray bigger because He wanted to save more than one a day.

    The work required faith and hope in God for what seemed like an impossible work that no one else was able to get much done back then.

    It was not possible for me to continue in that work back then because of the spiritual attacks that I was not prepared for nor did I know what or who to ask to help, because no one would believe the things that I was experiencing as my fears were much greater than my faith back then.

    I had one friend that I was able to ask for help, and she began telling me about the kingdom of God and the fallen kingdoms of darkness that were responsible for all wicked and evil works happening in the world, but they were all battles taking place in realms that we can’t see but are being influenced because of them.

    As I was hearing about all of these invisible forces at work in the world, I was as confused and shocked as my husband had been when I told him about the issue of sex trafficking that was happening in all cities and communities without so much as anyone noticing or even believing it could be possible in our own communities.

    Two kingdoms collided and the battle was on for every soul to be saved and to empty out the hoards locked away in the devil’s dens of darkness where drugs like heroin and other decoys of deception had caused so many to be drained of hope and a future.

    We can’t always understand what is really going on in the world or even our own lives because we are blinded by fear and injured in doubt. Doubting God’s Word and giving into the temptation to the devil’s lure of his twisted explanation or solution to the problems he created and will never fix but only offers up more webs and layers of lies that will have to eventually all be stripped away to reveal the simple message that God gave us when the Good News was preached about the Savior of the world arriving and finishing what was needed to redeem and restore all that had been lost through sin.

    It is something that is so simple and easy to understand, yet the world has caused the “Truth” to seem like the lie, while exalting lies and creating more suffering and sickness that are all works of the devil.

    When people truly want to know the solution for any issue from child abuse to transgender or race and equality, they need to start with a prayer to God asking Him to draw them out or Spiritual blindness and teach and lead them into all truth by giving His Holy Spirit to direct them to the pathway of life.

  • Hope and Healing

    The world is full of wrong thinking and wrong teaching. Sometimes even the churches are teaching the wrong things, so how can a person know what is truth and what to believe and expect or what they are here to do?

    Prayer and seeking the Lord is necessary for every single person. It’s not just the pastor that should be experiencing what the Lord is saying or wanting to do. We can all know the Lord and be taught by Him. Grab a Bible and ask to be filled with the Holy Spirit so you can understand God’s will and be a blessing to others.

    It’s only through the shed blood of Jesus that a person is in right standing with God. There are no good deeds that will get a person into Heaven and there are no other plans or routes than the free gift of God’s Grace for each person to accept the sacrifice of Christ for their sins and make Jesus Lord of their life.

    When I was desperate and the world was so full of darkness and misery, all that I could think about was how much suffering was happening everywhere, but then I discovered that God is real and that all the words in the Bible in Red are God’s words that are spirit and life, and when a person believes them and does them, they will experience a new life and their hearts will follow good and not evil.

    Receiving and knowing Jesus personally was the best blessing and the greatest treasure that I never knew I had been missing out on until I was finally awakened and alive, so I know that it is a rough and ugly world for the people that are still in darkness, and I am willing to do whatever it takes to help them know the love of God that comes through once a person accepts Jesus into their heart.

    When people say they know who God is and they know about Jesus, but they are poor, wretched and naked (without the covering of Christ) they need to repent and truly turn their hearts to the Lord to be saved. It says that all who call on the name of Jesus will be saved, so are you calling on his name to be saved or are you calling people and the doctors and the welfare office to rescue you from the troubles of this world?

    Jesus saves a person from sin and death but he also becomes your source for everything good once you make him your Lord.

    He loves us so much and is always eager to help us do good in life. When I say do good, I mean that when we know Jesus we start acting good towards others and we no longer hate everyone or get offended by everything that happens in the world. We don’t live in chaos and confusion anymore. We have peace and the love of God is ruling our hearts and minds in Christ.

    There is hope and healing for all who are willing to believe and accept the Truth of God’s Word. Jesus is life and when you accept him, you are agreeing to a brand new life free from the curse of sin and death and full of blessings and peace.

    Like the Nike ad says, “Just do it!” Believe and receive Christ and live for what matters and be free from the world’s calamity and clutter!

  • Words to Win

    Words to Win

    Don’t let the world cause confusion in your heart. Keep your gaze and adoration on Jesus and nothing will add up to a higher score of victory in all that you do in this world.

    There is only One way and it is through Jesus, because He is eternal life and he is able to clothe and equip everyone that comes to Him, so that they can find true life in peace and trusting in all the good that God has already made available to all of those who believe.

  • Praise the Lord

    Praise the Lord

    www.bible.com/bible/59/1ch.16.34-36.esv

    “Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; for his steadfast love endures forever! Say also: “Save us, O God of our salvation, and gather and deliver us from among the nations, that we may give thanks to your holy name and glory in your praise. Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting!” Then all the people said, “Amen!” and praised the Lord.”

    ‭‭1 Chronicles‬ ‭16:34-36‬ ‭ESV‬‬

    Our praises are where God is enthroned. He inhabits the praises of his people, so if it’s looking dark or times are getting rough, there is only ONE excellent way to win that war and every battle. Lift up your voice and sing praises to the Lord for ALL that He is and does and all that He can and will do to crush our problems and flood us with His peace and victory every time.

    If you don’t believe that praising God is the best solution for any problem or issue, just give it a try! Sing so loud that the neighbors hear and begin to join in too. That will bring the best blessing for the whole neighborhood and free the people from any and all oppression that was weighing them down.

    Give it up for our God!! Give Him your thanksgiving and your adoration for how amazing and beautiful He is and all that you believe about Him and declare that is good, you will see exactly that in your life! That is a key to remember. If your thoughts of God are bad ones and you have never known His love, please ask Him to help you and give Him your heart. Then you can experience the higher realm of Love that fills a person with total delight and delivers them from all the worries and fears that try to hide deep inside .

    God is better than most people can believe but for the one who actually knows him and speaks His Words of Truth with full trust and faith in God, will be forever blessed and saturated with favor and great peace and joy!!

    So know Him by sharing your life in every part with him and allowing His love to be your protector and His power to provide for and prosper your life. Let all of your adoration be for Him because He is worthy of it and you will only see how true that is when you begin to praise and believe in His perfect Love for you!

  • “The Blessing of the Lord Makes Rich and He Adds NO Sorrow to it” Proverbs

    I see so many people struggling with financial issues everyday, because they don’t know the Truth. God’s Word is His Will and all who receive Jesus as their Lord and Redeemer, are given the Holy Spirit to break them free from the cursed life.

    Declare the Word of God over your circumstances daily and NEVER agree with the enemies plan to steal, kill and destroy your life. Believe and know the Word of God-Jesus is the word of God manifest in the flesh as a man. When you read His Words and Believe them, you pass from death to life, and Christ becomes your new life as you yield to His Holy Spirit and allow Him to lead you into all Truth. It is time for the Church to prosper and live in ALL that Jesus bought back for us to have and enjoy. We are NOT defeated or losing if we will agree with God and close our ears to the lying voice of negative circumstances. Believe and speak in agreement with God’s plans for your life and watch how fast your financial struggles shift into a blessed life with no lack.

    Bless others and share what you have. There is more than enough for all people to be living blessed today!

  • Intimacy with God

    www.bible.com/1849/psa.40.6.tpt

    Jesus is the door that we can walk right through in faith to find grace and mercy for our time of need. The Father loves us because we believe in the One He sent and we can ask anything that we want in Christ and we will have it, so that our joy is full. That is amazing! And I only had to believe to receive what I want? How simple! And yet so many are in lack everywhere everyday because they don’t ask in faith without doubting.

    BELIEVE and it is enough!

  • Exalt Jesus Not Oppression

    www.bible.com/72/psa.72.14.hcsb

    Only love can destroy evil completely. God was able to take the most fearsome man around- killing all the christians shortly after Jesus was taken up, and turn that man into a faithful and sold out servant for Christ. In fact, that man was responsible for writing more of the New Testament than any other. His name was Saul but later changed to Paul. How can we be so fearful of people that have no understanding of the love of God, or the transforming power of the Holy Spirit working in a person?

    When fear comes in, it’s time to arise again and stand in faith with the truth around your waist and a sword in one hand of God’s Word, and a shield of faith in the other hand. Let the helmet of salvation cover your head and the breastplate of righteousness cover your chest. Put those gospel shoes on your feet and run to spread the good news of God’s Kingdom coming through for all who will believe and accept the Truth!

    Jesus saves in the darkest of night for all who call on his holy name!

    He is faithful and full of mercy and grace to save even those in the outer darkness. Call on His name and be saved from the destruction.

  • The Way

    I have entered into the rest of Christ’s finished works and I pray that all of you have too.

    I once lived in darkness and the misery of fear and wrong thinking, but I was given the keys and the authority and power to overcome this world when I turned my heart to discover the Truth.

    “I have told you these things so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have troubles, but take heart, I have overcome the world.” John 16:33

    The words of Jesus need to be received and understood by all so that the people can resist the temptation and lure of the enemy to destroy, steal and kill. When I had no understanding of the Word of God, I used to always wonder what my troubles had to do with Jesus overcoming the world. After years of stumbling around in darkness, I went on a thorough search to find solutions for the victims of child abuse and other evils that destroy the youth and families in the world. I wanted to know how to stop the evil. I needed to find hope, because I couldn’t see how things could ever get better for the millions suffering around the world.

    I went on a journey that was greater and more awesome than I could even comprehend. I found that the Lord was not only real, but also the source for everything good that all the people needed to be free and live again. I discovered that as I would believe the words of the scriptures and take them into my heart as the Truth, they would manifest as I was believing. If I didn’t understand them, I could ask God and He would help me to gain what was needed in the moment it was needed. The Bible became so powerfully alive to me, that I couldn’t get enough of it into me fast enough. I would spend hours, days, weeks, months and eventually years devouring the words of life.

    Suddenly I no longer lived in the misery of the world and all of its demonic oppression, but I lived in the richness of Christ. I had peace that truly does surpass all worldly understanding in the most severe afflictions and the times that most people were falling apart, I was falling deeper in love with Jesus. He was no longer a person from a book that was studied by scholars and multitudes of the world’s population year after year, but he was my friend and my greatest love. He knew all of me and still loved me. He didn’t get annoyed if I talked too much or had too many questions.

    He loved to teach me and show me awesome things that no one else knew or had ever given thought to yet.

    With all the issues everywhere today from suicide to covid, the world looks like a place of darkness and despair, but their is always a way of escape for anyone that truly desires to be free from the evil. We have a gift from God that is available to all people in all places to receive and be free. That gift is the Lord Jesus. Asking the Lord to take over our lives and become our savior and redeemer isn’t just for after we leave the earth so we can go to Heaven. It’s about living in abundance here on the earth by doing life in partnership with the Lord. He is the solution to every issue that anyone will ever face. He is the peace that the world longs to find and he is the Truth that sets the people free. Free from what? Free from the oppression and afflictions like poverty, sickness, depression, and every other work of the kingdom of darkness.

    I am not saying that religion will set you free or that going to a church every Sunday will get you out of the place of despair, but I am saying that for all those who truly desire to be free from the grips of a life of bondage and the corruption that leaves a soul bankrupt and in fear, Jesus is the TRUE WAY to LIFE. Jesus is the TRUTH, and he has no evil or deception in him. He leads the prisoner out and heals the sick and raises even the dead back to life. He is the identical image of the Father God, and the ONLY road or path that can bring us back into the presence and relational position we need with our Heavenly Father.

    I know that many people claim to know God and they will even think that because they have heard about the Lord that is good enough, but that is nothing at all. In fact, God told me that most people that say they know Him have never known Him. He was saying that to help me understand that it is one of the biggest issues the people face right now. They don’t really know the perfect love of the Father.

    Fear is the proof and the reason that all who do know the Truth must be working harder in order to help the weak in faith and rescue the lost by going out and getting them.

  • God is Your Protector

    youtube.com/watch

    The Little Chapel is located in Paradise Valley, AZ. They have one service a month minus the summer months. The reason they don’t have more services is because of the amount of work the Ladies that run it already do as the founders of a national nonprofit that has rescued more than 12 million children from child abuse and neglect over the last sixty years.

    The services are always amazing, because of the Holy Spirit working miracles of healing for all who attend. It’s a beautiful chapel full of Angels that are there to bring healing help also. Faith is high and fear is crushed with the presence of God’s love washing over every heart.

    As I shared in my testimony near the end of the service, the pastor and chapel helped to change my life forever as I was able to find my pathway to help others and become a light in the dark places for many to come out and learn about God’s amazing salvation.

    Please know that healings are possible simply by watching the services, because of the powerful anointing that Sara was given for the gift of healing.

    I pray that you find the truth and know how deeply loved and precious your life is to our Heavenly Father. Your life is of great value when you understand who you are and why you are here. That is when you no longer need to get stuff or be seen by others, but you want to be filled with God’s love and give all the glory to Him rather than wanting to be noticed and admired by the world. Your only goal is to let others know how much God can and will do to save them from all their troubles. That is the only real happiness and life worth having.

    Belonging to a family is something that many people have never known, but God is calling all of us to enter into His family through believing on Jesus and allowing the Love to transform your heart and life into a beautiful testimony for the Lord.

  • The Plans of God haven’t Changed

    www.bible.com/bible/59/mrk.6.11-13.esv

    “And if any place will not receive you and they will not listen to you, when you leave, shake off the dust that is on your feet as a testimony against them.” So they went out and proclaimed that people should repent. And they cast out many demons and anointed with oil many who were sick and healed them.”

    ‭‭Mark‬ ‭6:11-13‬ ‭ESV‬‬

    When Jesus sent out his disciples to share the gospel and proclaim the time of the fulfillment of all things had come and the people needed to repent and believe the good news, he told them to shake off the dust from their feet as a testimony against any people that would not hear them as a testimony against those people. God will judge the people by what they have done. We are to share the Gospel and show the people through our laid down lives for Christ the true heart of God.

    When people are genuine and pure in heart, motives are clear and lives are rescued and restored. Any other agenda will fail and the Truth will always be revealed to those who believe and know the Lord through relationship with him.

    Intimacy with God is the only way to stay away from the corruption in the world. To have a deep and lasting relationship with the Lord, it requires abiding in and being led by Love. A pure heart with no selfish ambition, but a fire and passion for God’s heart to be revealed to the lost and oppressed.

  • Freedom is Found in Truth

    “Tell me, do you want to go back to living strictly by the law? Haven’t you ever listened to what the law really says? Have you forgotten that Abraham had two sons; one by the slave girl, and the other by the freewoman?

    Let me illustrate: As long as an heir is a minor, he’s not really much different than a servant, although he’s the master over all of them. For until the time appointed by the father, the child is under the domestic supervision of the guardians of the estate.

    So it is with us.

    When we were juveniles we were enslaved under the hostile spirits of the world. But when the time of fulfillment had come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under the law.

    Yet all of this was so that he would redeem and set free those held hostage to the law so that we would receive our freedom and a full legal adoption as his children.

    And so that we would know that we are his true children, God released the Spirit of Sonship into our hearts—moving us to cry out intimately, “My Father! My true Father!” Now we’re no longer living like slaves under the law, but we enjoy being God’s very own sons and daughters!

    And because we’re his, we can access everything our Father has —for we are heirs because of what God has done! Before we knew God as our Father, we were unwitting servants to the powers that be, which are nothing compared to God.

    But now that we truly know him and are intimately known by him, why would we for a moment consider turning back to those weak and feeble principles of religion, as though we were still subject to them?

    Why would we want to scrupulously observe rituals like special days, celebrations of the new moon, annual festivals, and sacred years?

    I’m so alarmed about you that I’m beginning to wonder if my labor in ministry among you was a waste of time!

    Beloved ones, I plead with you, brothers and sisters, become like me, for I became like you. You did me no wrong. You are well aware that the reason I stayed among you to preach the good news was because of the poor state of my health. And yet you were so kind to me and did not despise me in my weakness, even though my physical condition put you through an ordeal while I was with you.

    Actually, you received me and cared for me as though I were an angel from God, as you would have cared for Jesus Christ himself! Some of you were even willing, if it were possible, to pluck out your own eyes to replace mine!

    Where is that kindhearted and free spirit now? Have I really become your enemy because I tell you the truth?

    Can’t you see what these false teachers are doing? They want to win you over so you will side with them. They want you divided from me so you will follow only them. Would you call that integrity? Isn’t it better to seek excellence and integrity always, and not just only when I’m with you? You are my dear children, but I agonize in spiritual “labor pains” once again, until the Anointed One will be fully formed in your hearts! How I wish I could be there in person and change my tone toward you, for I am truly dumbfounded over what you are doing!

    Ishmael, the son of the slave girl, was born of the natural realm. But Isaac, the son of the freewoman, was born supernaturally by the Spirit —a child of the promise of God!

    These two women and their sons express an allegory and become symbols of two covenants. The first covenant was born on Mount Sinai, birthing children into slavery—children born to Hagar. For “Hagar” represents the law given at Mount Sinai in Arabia. The “Hagar” metaphor corresponds to the earthly Jerusalem of today who are currently in bondage.

    In contrast, there is a heavenly Jerusalem above us, which is our true “mother.” She is the freewoman, birthing children into freedom! For it is written: “Burst forth with gladness, rejoice, O barren woman with no children, break through with the shouts of joy and jubilee, for you are about to give birth! The one who was once considered desolate and barren now has more children than the one who has a husband!”

    Dear friends, just like Isaac, we’re now the true children who inherit the kingdom promises. And just as the son of the natural world at that time harassed the son born of the power of the Holy Spirit, so it is today.

    And what does the Scripture tell us to do? “Expel the slave mother with her son! The son of the slave woman will not be a true heir— for the true heir of the promises is the son of the freewoman.” It’s now so obvious! We’re not the children of the slave woman; we’re the supernatural sons of the freewoman— sons of grace!”

    ‭‭Galatians‬ ‭4:1-31‬ ‭TPT‬‬

    Truth is the Word of God. Man had no power or abilities apart from God. It is only through God that we exist and are able to live at all, so why would so many people be so ready to doubt God and continue doing things the way they believe is good or better? God knows what is good and He alone is good. We have no right to declare anyone to be anything other than what God had said they are.

    We are all born into this world because God created us for this in order to fulfill His plans and purposes. We didn’t choose to be born and we don’t get to choose the outcome for anyone else in this world, but we can only walk out our very own salvation with God.

    I share the Words of Life, because they are the way to eternal life. There is no other way to live outside of the Truth. God’s Word became flesh and lived among us…Jesus is the only one that can save your souls. All who call on him will be saved and raised up on the last day…

    What are you waiting for? The invitation has been given and the devil is the only one who rejoices when you say “no” to Perfect Love and an abundant life.

    Jesus came so that we might have life in its fullness. Jesus is life and His spirit of Life lives in those who receive Jesus into their hearts by believing he is the true Son of God.

    The spirits of the world are fear, malice, envy, lust, greed, shame, guilt, depression, hopelessness, and more. Those spirits cause stress and strife and those people have no peace. Receive the Spirit of Life by believing in God’s Truth.

    If you truly knew how much love the Father has for you, would you still hold onto the lies of the world?

    The lies:

    You will never be enough.

    No one sees or cares about you.

    You are worthless and stupid.

    You can’t do that.

    You can’t have that.

    You are not loved by God.

    Who could ever forgive all that you have done?

    You have no reason to live.

    The church will never let you join or be involved with anything, because you are a sinner.

    You are an embarrassment to God’s holy name and you should be called shame.

    Take every one of those lies down immediately with the powerful weapon of God’s Word! Don’t allow any of those lies to enter your heart and never allow them to come forth from your mouth! The enemy wants more than anything to deceive and destroy all of man, but he is powerless and without effect unless someone takes the bait and begins to believe those negative daggers to their soul.

    The Truth:

    God loves you with an everlasting love.

    He will never leave you nor forsake you.

    All have sinned all fall short of the glory of God. Jesus is the ONLY way to be reconciled back to God and you can’t do enough good deeds to ever qualify for even a glimpse of Heaven! Jesus is your merciful savior who paid for all of your sins forever and he will cover you and keep you from all the wrath to come! Believe in him and be saved! Call upon the name of the Lord and be saved! Jesus saves, heals and restores all that the enemy stole from your life. He is the best gift that anyone could ever get and he never gets worn out or bored with you!

    Oh the lies that the darkness tries to blind the children of God by whispering evil thoughts of negativity and toxic pollutants into their minds. Cover your head with salvation and dress yourself in the gift of God’s righteousness to put to silence all tormenting thoughts. Praise the Lord with all that you have in you and nothing will come near to harm you. The enemy hates to hear how much we love Jesus and the Father, So live a life of thanksgiving no matter what is happening, because you can trust God to vindicate you if you release all those worries to him.

    Only think on good and lovely things and keep all open doors locked to the enemy, by avoiding all toxic places and paths, because they all lead straight to hell, and the people on them will never know peace, because they chose to reject Jesus and be free. They have a brutal master who is called the father of lies. He will make you think you don’t have to care or obey Jesus, but he is on a mission to ruin you and keep you from the free gift of God’s salvation. Don’t wait, because you don’t know what will happen even today!

    Receive his mercy today!

  • Love Heals

    There is a song from the 70’s or 80’s called Love Hurts, but the truth is that LOVE heals and LOVE is the only thing that can destroy evil completely.

    Love is something that is good and not a negative emotion or feeling.  Love is beautiful and it makes the world beautiful.  A lack of love is what causes the world to become a devastating, war-torn battle zone.   The battle and wars might not be military conflicts, but they can be just as damaging to have a divided people fighting over issues like abortion, gay rights, gun control and political parties raging against each other.

    I often wonder if people even know what they are so upset about when they go off on a rage at the mere mention of a political candidate that is registered to the party opposite their own.  Most of the time political candidates are arguing over issues that are not going to be resolved by them or aren’t even an issue.

    I know that most people are blind to the Truth, but it is almost scary to sit back and listen to how foolish people can be about nonsense that has no point or purpose and will help no one, but it does manage to keep people divided and angry which is the only reason that we have so many issues.  It may seem like a strange thing to actually seek out the Truth of a matter and not accept the lies anymore, but the Word of God is the Only Truth that will never change or pass away.  Instead of wasting days, months, and years trying to figure out who is right and wrong over issues, we could all seek the Truth and ask God to make in us a pure heart and uphold us with a right spirit that will reveal all truth to us.

    God promises to write his laws on our hearts and minds so that we no longer need anyone to teach us about him or what is right and wrong.

    We receive His love and we are then able to give that love to others. When people turn and help others, love blooms and the life of Christ manifests and the people are blessed.

    This is the weekend that we are all made aware of the sacrifice of our Lord and Savior who gave us the example of the greatest love when he laid down his life for his brothers and sisters. His brothers and sisters were not very kind or good obviously if they crucified him and no one fought to save him. Of course, we know that it had to be that way for God to turn that one act and sacrificial offering of selfless love into the most crucial and powerful blessing that has ever been given to us today. It is in the Truth-Jesus Christ, that we are able to see clearly the things that are of great value and what truly creates good rather than living in a world of spiritual blindness and self-seeking desires.

    When a person no longer finds value in their belongings and is willing to release it all in order to help others, they are walking in divine love and unity with the Lord, because it is only when a person discovers the Truth-(Jesus Christ), that they are able to let go of the greed, envy, slander and self-seeking life. Jesus is the ONLY desire and destiny for me, because he is the most beautiful and compassionate life that is always eager to help and give whatever is needed no matter what the cost.

    Jesus is not just a figure in history, he is the Truth, the Life and the Way. What is the Truth? The absolute highest understanding and the only thing that will never fail or change. God’s Word is the Truth. People can continue to fight to keep it from being made known to the children and the people in the world, but this only causes more suffering for them and the future generations. The Life and the Way are the means to which we are to follow and abide our lives with in order to have the same experience and relationship with our Heavenly Father. We are only able to go to the Father through the Life of Jesus Christ, because of what he did to obtain for us reconciliation and restoration with the Father. We are blessed when we choose to believe God’s Word over the rhetoric of the world. In fact, there is no peace for anyone who is not reconciled back to God, because those people are living under a cursed and fallen world that is defiled in sin and rejection of all the good that God has already made available for all who will believe in Jesus Christ and receive his life for their own debts owed for sin.

    I hope that makes sense to anyone who is currently in need of a new life and the truth. Turn to the Lord and believe God is good and will provide and do all that He has promised for those who know and hold fast to His Covenant.

    Be grateful and leave behind all negativity and wicked words and acts by trusting in good rather than believing in oppression.

    May you be blessed and filled with the fullness of God as you seek the Kingdom of God and His righteousness first.

  • Journal Entry 6/15/2016

    June 15, 2016

    I blanketed the entire valley yesterday with prayers and blessings. I asked for Super natural protection on the roads, freeways and the lives that travel them! Circled the entire valley and prayed over communities as well as each driver I passed!

    I did the same today in Gilbert and queen creek again
    June 15, 2016
    **three days later there was a man with a shot gun in Queen Creek in the exact location where I had prayed for protection. I saw it on the news and the man finally surrendered and no one was injured. Sweet! This is effective faith and action to protect the community! Thank you Jesus for your Holy Spirit!

  • Journal Entry 6/22/2016

    June 22, 2016

    In the middle of the scorching AZ summer heat, there lay a man sleeping on the sidewalk beside a circle K at a busy intersection in North Phoenix. I saw him from my car as I was waiting for the light to change, so I did what any normal person would do, and I darted three lanes over to access the turning lane. I quickly flipped a U turn and zipped into the parking lot. I stared at the young man for a minute to see if he was breathing or not, because the temps were around 116 at this point and there had been several deaths in the few days prior to this, because of excessive heat, so I wasn’t sure what to do. I asked God to help me and I jumped out of my car and headed over to the man’s body.
    I woke him up and tried not to startle him too bad, because all I knew about him was he was homeless and he had a lighter near him with a grocery bag.
    He had a little blood on his chest but he said he was fine.
    I asked if I could get him anything, besides the cold drinks and money I just gave him. He asked if I had a cigarette, and said, I am sure you probably don’t have one. I laughed and went to my car and pulled out a pack of Marlboro lights that I had bought on a recent trip to the casino. I didn’t really smoke cigs anymore, but I always liked to be prepared for any emergency moments.
    He asked me what church I was with, and I told him that I wasn’t with a church, but I had come to help him with asking God for what he needed.
    I prayed for him to have the doors open for help with work and a place to live. Then we talked for about fifteen or twenty mins about his childhood and family.
    He had a rough start for sure, and he believed all the bad things people said about him, and he thought he was never going to be able to do anything because of those negative beliefs wounding his soul.
    Soon a man in a pick up truck pulled up right in front of where we were sitting on the ground. The guy that I knew him, because the man was waiting for us to finish talking so he could talk to him. As I was leaving, I looked at the guy by the truck and I told the young man on the ground that God had sent the man to help him with what he would need next.
    I don’t know why I was so confident about that, but I truly believed that God had answered my prayer that quickly and the 23 year old young man was going to have a new life.
    I never saw him again, but when I looked into his eyes, I saw Jesus, and that was not the first time that happened while I was helping a total stranger.

  • The Last Day

    The Last Day

    What if you knew that today was the last day on earth, how would you live those 24 hours? I don’t mean that you will be dying, but you will be lifted up to meet the Lord in the clouds. What would you want to do in those last 24 hours? A time of celebration? A frenzy trying to get prepared? A peaceful time soaking in the Lord’s Word? Sharing the Good News with everyone, everywhere around you? Chasing down all the people that you know never gave their life to Jesus? Doing all the things that are still on your bucket list?

    I am serious about this question, because if everyone would answer this honestly and consider that this might actually be the last day, it actually would become the last day. I say that because it would cause everyone to turn and help all those they know are not saved and they wouldn’t have any fear of what the person might say or what people might think about them, because they would know that it truly is the last day and there is only ONE that each person has to give account of their life to after they leave here and that is the Lord.

    I have given a great deal of time to helping the children in Foster Care and those that aged out of care find hope and have a brighter future, but there are so many people that I could be helping and praying for without ceasing. The Bible tells us that we should pray without ceasing. It also says that we must accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior and believe that he is the One that God sent to save the world, but there are some that have been taught lies and they are in need of Christians to pray for their souls. We all need prayers and we all need to cover each other by praying for each other.

    I believe that if the people really knew the Truth of how much they are all loved and how great the Father, Son and Holy Spirit truly are, there would be no hatred and division over nonsense that currently steals so much of the people’s time and produces only more evil. If the people actually knew and believed the Truth the world would look like a beautiful blessing to all people.

    The redeemed of the Lord should say so, and they should also help others to find the only true salvation in this life, which is Jesus the Christ. I don’t want to sound like a nagging preacher, but I want the people to know that everyone has a purpose that God created them to do. If you are a paramedic or first responder, get filled with the Holy Spirit and begin fulfilling the work of saving and delivering the people from sickness and demonic oppression. This is something that all spirit-filled believers can and should be doing, but how much more the people who actually have paid positions like a fire fighter or a police officer? How much quicker would we see the lost saved than to have our first responders setting the people free from demonic oppression and healing the sick?

    If we had judges, attorneys and prison guards all spirit-filled believers, WOW, how amazing would that be?

    There would soon only be peaceful communities and joyful neighbors always eager to help anyone in need. No more homeless, no more helpless, no more victims, no more abusive and self-centered people. All would be willing and eager to protect and pray and none would be in fear!

    Being saved is not enough to walk in the power and overcome this world. It takes a baptism in the Holy Spirit to even be able to do a task as simple as reading and understanding the Bible correctly.

    I know that there are a few religions that don’t accept the Holy Spirit, but that is incredibly strange and completely unbiblical. Speaking in new tongues, joyful, eager and ready to do the will of God are not drunk or crazy, they are the children of God who walk in the Holy Spirit and trust God for everything they need in this life. Don’t limit God, by believing He can’t or won’t do something for you. Receive and believe He can and will and is waiting for you to agree with His plans and not the enemies.

    He is the God of miracles, love and faithfulness. He has done everything we would ever need and He made it all for us to enjoy and receive with gratitude and not bragging about what we could do or thought we did, but realizing that all has come from Him and to thank Him and believe for good for all.

  • God’s Justice is Eternal

    God’s Justice is Eternal

    God is faithful and will never go back on anything that He has confirmed and established by His Word. When people grab ahold of this Truth and realize that they actually are the ones making the choice to live blessed or cursed by either agreeing with what God has already proclaimed as the destiny for the latter days on earth, or to allow the lies and deception of our enemy to take hold of our hearts and souls and lead them into sickness, poverty or foolish pride and arrogance which causes blindness and deafness to the Kingdom of our Lord.

    People can hear God’s voice and many do and they brush it off as their conscience or inner voice that is trying to direct every person on the correct pathway, but the outside voices of the world often make it difficult to hear and discern what is right there with them.

    Sometimes the voice of the church causes people to be blind and deaf to the Truth if the church is not abiding in the Love and grace of our Lord Jesus. It is necessary that the people turn and help others so that the fullness of God’s blessing can pour forth to a united people of faith and all those who call upon the name of the Lord who will be saved from the wrath to come.

    These are the days of vengeance and recompense for the people to be rewarded for good or everlasting shame. Today is the day of salvation for those who hear His voice, so don’t ignore it, but open your heart to allow for Him to make needed corrections and fill it full of His great mercy and grace.

    The one who is forgiven little loves little, but the one who is forgiven much, loves much.

    This is how they will know we are His people, by our love for one and other.

    America is known as the land of freedom and opportunity, but Americans can go to the other nations and bring those same blessings to them, and there would be no more battle over the illegal immigrants or needing to build walls to keep people out of our country. This is what the church was meant to do during these times. To go and help rebuild the war torn nations and bring them into God’s light of Salvation.

    Please understand that the issues we currently argue over here in the United States of America are all resolvable by believing and doing what is written in the scriptures. If the nation would wake up and rise up in love and abide in that love and truth of Jesus Christ, the darkness would soon be completely conquered by the Love that will be birthed.

    Love wins!

  • When Love Finds a Way

    I live for helping others and serving the Lord’s people, but sometimes there are people that we come across that truly teach us how frail all men are.

    It was a typical night for me and the Holy Spirit. Out on the road, singing songs of praise and watching and listening for who we would find and bring hope in faith. As we passed the Walgreens, someone on the ground under the bus stop bench caught my eye.

    I quickly turned around to go and see how we could help. When I approached the bench where the man was laying on the ground under it, I heard sobbing and what seemed like deep anguish of a man’s soul. I was suddenly moved into total compassion mode even more than just wanting to do a kind deed or good gesture.

    I didn’t want to cause the man to be ashamed for his sobbing like a baby, so I approached slowly and softly whispered, “The Lord asked me to bring this to you tonight. Everything is going to be okay soon.”

    I turned to head back to my car when I saw his arm reach out for what I had laid on the ground. I saw that he was a big muscular man and was wearing military clothing. He then spoke through his broken heart and said, “Thank you very much for coming.”

    I told him that it was my pleasure and I let him know that he would find some words of encouragement and direction in the items that I left for him, as well as water, a snack and some money for food later.

    I hurried back to my car where I began to cry for this man who had clearly been serving as a defender for our great nation and the people to be able to sleep securely in their beds that night. Meanwhile he was sleeping in the hot desert heat on the ground without a family or home. It was heart wrenching and something that I wanted all the people to see and know, so they would learn to love again. So they would understand that it’s not the fault of a man for not being strong or brave enough or a hard enough worker that will keep them from being homeless and broken. It is the love that each and every individual display or withholds from another that will ultimately keep our nation’s people off the streets and in the love of family. We don’t all have loved ones to love us, but we can love all as our Heavenly Father has done for us.

    It is out of the deepest darkness that a man can find his way back through the light of love. Don’t live in fear of what might happen if you go out to help strangers at night. Be in fear of what will happen if you stay locked up in your home and ignore the lost and hurting in need.

  • The Times and Seasons

    Watch the skies and see the stripes during the time of planting, see the crossing signs when it is time to shift again.

    Take the clouds to the ends of the promise land and see how many are cheering you through to VICTORY!! No one is against you! They are all pulling for you to reach the top where you can see clearly. There is only faith, hope and LOVE that can live here at this realm. Who believes what he has heard? Don’t doubt the Truth because the Truth is the only WAY to catch that glory bound train of believers! Love can always be found, so run after LOVE with all of your heart and let go of your falsehoods that can’t satisfy you for even one dark night without Love on your side. Today is the day of salvation! Ask and receive, and ALWAYS understand that our God is GOOD! He has planned a celebration station at every turn for this generation!! No more fighting in the streets, no more helpless, no more homeless, no more bitter or broken cisterns, because we are ALL forgiven as soon as we make that call!!! It’s not the glory that we are needing my dear beloved ones. It’s the Rock that keeps us aloft without fear of a great fall! Let the worries go, and run after him with all of your heart this time! Stop believing that it’s a race to compete and that you can find defeat! Believe that I am your VICTORY and I will never forsake those in my keep.

    If you want to hear my voice, stop believing that you can’t hear it and start declaring my TRUE, SPIRIT LIFE WORDS. “My sheep hear my voice…” Know my voice! My voice is found in the pages of that GOOD NEWS BOOK! Why would there be sorrow and bitterness when I ensured blessings for all who would run after me? 100 times back what they give up for my name’s sake in this lifetime! What have you given up for me? Family? Prestige? Power? Honor by men? You lost the world and gained the Eternal treasures of Heaven for all those that will believe and come to me. Corruption is not as obvious as it is after its impact destroys a generation. You ask me to tell you things that you then conceal, but I truly have given you the pathway out of hell. Live for true food, give your best to the least and the worst, and you will see the waves of mercy washing each life clean. Shout out the victory and stand in my authority that you have been given. If your faith won’t get you out of the pit, why haven’t you put your faith into the faithful and obedient Servant of ALL? Have faith in God and also Jesus Christ! Trust that God has made a way to keep you safe and He will hear your prayers and answer your cries for help. Don’t believe that God is asking you to carry sickness or any other burden of evil. He said to cast your cares on him, because he cares for you. He wants to carry your heavy burdens so that you are free from worry, fear and stress, because those are the things that can cause suffering if you hold on to them.

  • Freedom from Depression and Suicidal Thoughts of Despair

    Freedom from Depression and Suicidal Thoughts of Despair

    There are many experts on the issues of depression and suicide, and I don’t claim to be a highly esteemed psychiatrist or certified mental health care worker, but I do claim to know the solution and way of escape from these and all heavy burdens and worries of this world. I once lived in darkness and the misery of fear and wrong thinking, but I was given the keys and the authority and power to overcome this world when I turned my heart to discover the Truth.

    “I have told you these things so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have troubles, but take heart, I have overcome the world.” John 16:33

    The words of Jesus need to be received and understood by all so that the people can resist the temptation and lure of the enemy to destroy, steal and kill. When I had no understanding of the Word of God, I used to always wonder what my troubles had to do with Jesus overcoming the world. After years of stumbling around in darkness, I went on a thorough search to find solutions for the victims of child abuse and other evils that destroy the youth and families in the world. I wanted to know how to stop the evil. I needed to find hope, because I couldn’t see how things could ever get better for the millions suffering around the world.

    I went on a journey that was greater and more awesome than I could even comprehend. I found that the Lord was not only real, but also the source for everything good that all the people needed to be free and live again. I discovered that as I would believe the words of the scriptures and take them into my heart as the Truth, they would manifest as I was believing. If I didn’t understand them, I could ask God and He would help me to gain what was needed in the moment it was needed. The Bible became so powerfully alive to me, that I couldn’t get enough of it into me fast enough. I would spend hours, days, weeks, months and eventually years devouring the words of life.

    Suddenly I no longer lived in the misery of the world and all of its demonic oppression, but I lived in the richness of Christ. I had peace that truly does surpass all worldly understanding in the most severe afflictions and the times that most people were falling apart, I was falling deeper in love with Jesus. He was no longer a person from a book that was studied by scholars and multitudes of the world’s population year after year, but he was my friend and my greatest love. He knew all of me and still loved me. He didn’t get annoyed if I talked too much or had too many questions.

    He loved to teach me and show me awesome things that no one else knew or had ever given thought to yet.

    With all the issues everywhere today from suicide to covid, the world looks like a place of darkness and despair, but their is always a way of escape for anyone that truly desires to be free from the evil. We have a gift from God that is available to all people in all places to receive and be free. That gift is the Lord Jesus. Asking the Lord to take over our lives and become our savior and redeemer isn’t just for after we leave the earth so we can go to Heaven. It’s about living in abundance here on the earth by doing life in partnership with the Lord. He is the solution to every issue that anyone will ever face. He is the peace that the world longs to find and he is the Truth that sets the people free. Free from what? Free from the oppression and afflictions like poverty, sickness, depression, and every other work of the kingdom of darkness.

    I am not saying that religion will set you free or that going to a church every Sunday will get you out of the place of despair, but I am saying that for all those who truly desire to be free from the grips of a life of bondage and the corruption that leaves a soul bankrupt and in fear, Jesus is the TRUE WAY to LIFE. Jesus is the TRUTH, and he has no evil or deception in him. He leads the prisoner out and heals the sick and raises even the dead back to life. He is the identical image of the Father God, and the ONLY road or path that can bring us back into the presence and relational position we need with our Heavenly Father.

    I know that many people claim to know God and they will even think that because they have heard about the Lord that is good enough, but that is nothing at all. In fact, God told me that most people that say they know Him have never known Him. He was saying that to help me understand that it is one of the biggest issues the people face right now. They don’t really know the perfect love of the Father.

    Fear is the proof and the reason that all who do know the Truth must be working harder in order to help the weak in faith and rescue the lost by going out and getting them.

    Prayer:

    “Jesus, I know that I can’t do this world alone anymore, and I am sorry that I never fully gave my heart and life to you, but if you will take over now and forgive me for ignoring you all these years, I willingly lay down all my plans and will for you to use it for your glory. I ask you to come into my heart and create in me a new heart and uphold me with your right Spirit.”

  • Experience the Fullness

    God has so much more than just that place of peace and quietness. There is sheer ecstasy and divine rivers of fire-filled flames of love that are ready to pour over those that are ready to receive. He said that He satisfies ALL of your desires and you will lack for nothing. What does the word Rapture mean? Think about it and ask God to take you there if you are truly ready to awaken love.
    The saints knew God and they were filled with joy because God’s presence and glory are so awesome that joy can’t hide in doctrines and theological studies.
    You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore. Psalm 16:11
    We have such an awesome God! He is so good, and so faithful and exciting! He has been my closest companion for the past three years. We are inseparable lol. Get it? Because He lives inside of me. 😂
    Lighten up and enjoy the good stuff that He has planned right now for all believers!!
    Don’t know about Him, know Him! Experience the living God.

  • Do You Give Glory to God for What He has Done?

    “So the crowd was amazed when they saw those unable to speak talking, the crippled restored, the lame walking, and the blind seeing, and they gave glory to the God of Israel.”

    ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭15:31‬ ‭CSB‬‬

    How many times have you seen God do a great miracle, and you kept it a secret instead of giving glory to God and sharing it with others that would also benefit from hearing it?

    What if we all took the time to reflect on all that God has already done for us, and we actually focused on it long enough to realize that we have already been given all that we will ever need to defeat all sickness, and overcome every obstacle, as well as do and see great works from the Kingdom of Heaven right here in our everyday lives?

    I sought the Lord with all my heart, because I needed to know the Truth and to be set free from the fear and torment that had held me captive for so many years. I wasn’t just afraid of what might happen to me, but I was terrified of what might happen to the next generation of children growing up in foster care, or those children being sold by sex traffickers for disgusting and perverse works of evil. I was in agony over the lack of love that I saw everywhere in the world, and even more so in the churches. I was so focused on how bad things were and how quickly they were escalating deeper into darkness that I needed to let go of everything and just get away with the Lord for awhile.

    The Lord spoke to me and told me that He wanted me to get away with Him for awhile and to avoid all negativity including social media and especially the news and all media. It was much more difficult than I thought to avoid negativity at that time in my life, but it was exactly what I needed to be of value to anyone later when the world was in total darkness and the people gross darkness. J

    I stepped out of the world, and into the realm of abundant life! It was amazing and something that can’t fully be explained, but should be experienced and desired by all people to discover.

    In that place of Shalom, I could hear the voice of God everyday with total clarity, and I could see the things that no one else could see or understand for some reason. (I am not sharing this to boast about anything that I did. I am sharing it to give glory to God for what He has always done and will always do to help His creation be awakened to love.)

    I remember being so desperate to find God for so many years, but I truly had no idea where or how to find Him. I tried the churches, but He wasn’t in any of the ones that I went to back then. I tried to read the King James Bible, but I couldn’t stay awake long enough to try and figure out the strange dialect. I wanted to know more about a God who was real enough to help the hurting and turn a terrible life into a beautiful gift to others in need.

    I found Him. He wasn’t hiding from me. He was waiting for me. He was eager to open my eyes and lift me out of the pit that I had been trapped in for so long. It was a pit of self-hatred, shame, guilt and mostly fear. Fear of everything and everyone. Fear of the unknown. I assumed that the bad stuff was bigger than the good stuff and that the world was never going to be anything, but a place of sorrow and suffering. I had seem only bad things for the last few years, and I was blinded to the good that was all around me. I couldn’t see all that God has done for me and how He was always available for me to ask Him for help. I only knew that when I prayed on those three rare occasions in the past ten years that He answered my prayers.

    When I really opened up my heart and shared it with Him, He shared Himself with me in a way that I can never put into words.

    I just want to leave this post with one question for the reader; How much is it worth to you to know and experience the God of all creation? I would suggest that it is worth everything and this life is nothing without Him.

    A life of adventure awaits!

  • The Lord is My Help

    “My God, I trust in you. Do not let me be disgraced; do not let my enemies gloat over me. No one who waits for you will be disgraced; those who act treacherously without cause will be disgraced. Make your ways known to me, Lord; teach me your paths. Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are the God of my salvation; I wait for you all day long. Remember, Lord, your compassion and your faithful love, for they have existed from antiquity. Do not remember the sins of my youth or my acts of rebellion; in keeping with your faithful love, remember me because of your goodness, Lord. The Lord is good and upright; therefore he shows sinners the way. He leads the humble in what is right and teaches them his way. All the Lord’s ways show faithful love and truth to those who keep his covenant and decrees. Lord, for the sake of your name, forgive my iniquity, for it is immense. Who is this person who fears the Lord? He will show him the way he should choose. He will live a good life, and his descendants will inherit the land. The secret counsel of the Lord is for those who fear him, and he reveals his covenant to them. My eyes are always on the Lord, for he will pull my feet out of the net. Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am alone and afflicted. The distresses of my heart increase; bring me out of my sufferings. Consider my affliction and trouble, and forgive all my sins. Consider my enemies; they are numerous, and they hate me violently. Guard me and rescue me; do not let me be disgraced, for I take refuge in you. May integrity and what is right watch over me, for I wait for you. God, redeem Israel, from all its distresses.”

    ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭25:2-22‬ ‭CSB‬‬

  • Serve the Lord by Loving Others and Doing Good

    ALL Christians must help the lost, the broken, the afflicted, oppressed, and even the people that have caused so much pain for others. People have to be told the Truth about Jesus and the good news that all people can be free of everything that they formerly could not be free of, and can freely come to the Father for reconciliation and be adopted into the family of God. All people have the right to be set free and reconciled back to the Father, but many don’t know that they are being called to come home right now. The gay and lesbian community, the agnostics and atheists, the drug dealers, sex traffickers, gang members, the people who openly declared they would never accept a God that would allow such awful things that happen in the World, and every single person from every nation in the World!

    All people are welcomed to call on Jesus and be saved, and all of their sins and former life will be instantly washed away and God will not remember anything at all that anyone did once they accept Jesus as their Savior. That is pretty good news for all people, but I don’t think that many of them understand the urgency to turn to Jesus right now, nor do they understand that there is no other way out of here without Jesus.

    I don’t know if I am supposed to share all of the things God said that day, but I want to make it clear that He told me three times about how people must turn and begin helping others right now. He didn’t say it with a carefree tone. He was very serious the third time He said it. I knew it was not going to be enough for people to just donate a few bucks in the offering bowl at church on Sunday and think they were doing good for others. But I was instructed not to force people or guilt people into helping and doing what is good and right. I was told to lead by example just like all of us are told to do by following Jesus. I followed Jesus and did what was written in the New Testament, because Jesus said to do it or we would see our lives crumble if we built them on any other foundation and way of living. It wasn’t hard to do those things because they were already in me as desires that I wanted to do. I was more afraid of not doing what was good and being displeasing to God than I was ever afraid of telling people how amazing Jesus is, and stopping to help total strangers on the streets. I knew God’s heart, and I knew that He doesn’t approve of our cowardly responses to people, because I had turned away from helping a young homeless girl about six or seven years ago, and I was later suffering from an issue that I kept insisting that God was going to heal and I didn’t need to see a doctor. Well one day when I was starting to worry about not being healed God spoke and said that I was asking Him to help me, but when He sent a person for me to help, I refused them and blocked them on my phone. He was right and I did it because I thought the girl was too damaged to bring to my house where my kids would be around her. I was so terribly wrong and I immediately corrected my wrong behavior and evil thoughts, and I was also healed immediately too! The girl ended up living with our family for a few years, and she is now finishing up her degree in criminal justice. She was 19 and homeless when God put her in my path. She aged out of Foster Care and had no one to help her. She had been abused and gave birth to her step dads baby at age 11, but not before her mom tried to kill her and the baby. A horrific childhood that seemed too much for me to know how to help her. God didn’t need me to fix her. He needed me to love and keep her safe with a home and family. He loved her so much that I was heartbroken to think that I could ever have pushed her away when she desperately needed help. I have taken many strangers into my home since then even if just for a chance to let them shower and get clean clothes and some food. It is so hard to see people hurting and alone on the streets, so I go around and help them as often as I go out. Sometimes it is only to find specific people that God wants me to find, but sometimes it is to feed the masses of homeless in Phoenix. I am not sharing this stuff for my benefit. It is of great importance to all the churches and the people to understand. God expects us to do big things like -open our homes to the homeless, -foster the children in state care. -Adopt those that have no families or chance of being reunified with their birth parents. -Skip the vacation in order to pay for a single mother to have electricity for the summer -Buy new clothes for the children in foster care -Lower the rent for a struggling family living in a home that you own. -Purchase an apartment building for a nonprofit to create housing for youth aging out of foster care. -Stop buying more sports cars and expensive jewelry and start building up the ruined cities and countries like Honduras or Venezuela. -Fund a home for unwed pregnant teens so they don’t think they have to abort the baby because they have no where to live if they keep it. -Go to court with the young people that are locked in jail for minor offenses and have no one to support and help them, because they were homeless and on drugs. -Pay for those same people to be released from jail so they don’t have to spend a year in jail waiting for their cases to be resolved. The majority of these young adults are from the foster care system and they are unable to get free from these pits that the enemy has made unless people like us step in and pray and help. The bail money is mostly under $1000 and usually $100, so there is no reason for them to sit in jail for 16 months because they couldn’t come up with the $1000 or the $100 bail. It costs the taxpayers an insane amount of money for these kinds of injustices, but those people are told they must pay massive fines even after being released to cover those expenses. It is all a ridiculous broken cycle created by the devil to destroy the poor and make it look like the rich and the political leaders are to blame for it all. The division and chaos is not supposed to take down the Christians, but the people of the church are supposed to take it down with the authority given to all who believe. It is time to begin praying and seeking to know what God wants you to do and how you can help right now. It is going to be a wonderful celebration when we are all free and leaving behind the old for a brand new home with God

  • You Will Know the Truth and the Truth Will Set You Free

    www.bible.com/bible/59/heb.2.14-15,17-18.esv

    “Since therefore the children share in flesh and blood, he himself likewise partook of the same things, that through death he might destroy the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil, and deliver all those who through fear of death were subject to lifelong slavery.

    Therefore he had to be made like his brothers in every respect, so that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in the service of God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people. For because he himself has suffered when tempted, he is able to help those who are being tempted.”

    ‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭2:14-15, 17-18‬ ‭ESV‬‬

    Jesus is my Lord and Savior therefore I shall never fear death or destruction because Jesus conquered them, and he lives in me, so how can I not do what he did when he is in me?

    My dad used to live in constant torment and terror because of the fear that came from medical diagnosis and words of death that were spoken over him by medical professionals and others without understanding of the Truth. He would get so upset with me when I would try to help him by sharing the Truth. He would tell me that I didn’t understand what it was like to not be able to breath, and he swore that he would not be able to breath if he didn’t have all the correct medications and oxygen tanks the doctors prescribed to him. They diagnosed him with many things, but none of those things killed him. Sadly my dad’s last day was noted by him in a phone text to his girlfriend which read something like this, “I’m not gonna make it much longer. The doctor cut my prescription back and they will only let me have half of what I have been taking, because of some new law. I will never make it. I don’t know what I am gonna do.”

    My dad died that day. He was home alone at my sister’s house where he was living at the tine. He asked my sister not to go to work, because he was afraid of being home alone that day. She thought he was just being a pain and told him that she had to go to work and that she would be off all weekend. She told him to call her son if he needed anything and he would be right over to help.

    When my sister returned home from work that evening she found our dad’s lifeless body crouched between the couch and the coffee table. He had his shirt over his head as if he was trying to remove it, but collapsed instead. Her son realized that his phone had been dead all morning and quickly tried to call to check on my dad when he finally had the service back on, but he couldn’t get an answer. He showed up to find his mom a sobbing mess and his grandpa being taken out by the paramedics. They were both hysterical and full of shame and guilt.

    It was a perfect plan of the enemy to try and destroy our family completely, or so he thought. It would have been very easy for me to blame my own family members for not taking better care of our dad, or blame the government and the laws that are all harmful and hindering the people, but what good would that due? He was gone and they were already falling apart, and the government was all run by the people in need of understanding.

    When my mother died a few years earlier my sister came to town and told my mom how she would protect her and would never let anything bad happen to her again like had happened under my care basically. Those words stung and they caused me great sorrow and torment for three years, but then I gave them to Jesus, and he immediately removed all of that heavy weight of sorrow that I was carrying from her words. It literally came out of my body and went away. I never felt it again and couldn’t cry about her death any longer after I released that pain to Jesus.

    I forgave everyone that was involved in my mother’s early death, and I started a new life in Christ. A life that was no longer bound to the words of others and one that was no longer able to see the bad in everyone. I had new eyes and a new heart that could only see the good in people and the things that God wanted them to see and know rather than all of the negative reports and evil that they were being fed each day by the world.

    My heart was pure and my eyes were clear to see what was really happening each day. I could hear the Lord very clearly and was led by him everyday in what to pray and what to do. I was so hungry for the Truth that I would lock myself away for hours a day to read the Bible. It was a daily adventure of learning a whole new life and a better way to think and see things.

    What was once a timid and fearful woman afraid of her own shadow had almost instantly become a mighty warrior that was destroying the kingdom of darkness with faith filled prayers and words of life that were spoken over the afflicted and broken lives everywhere I would go each day. The world was no longer a place of torment and fear for me, because I had the King of Glory with me, and He was my help. If God is for us, whom shall we fear?

    That being said, I was able to speak words of healing and hope to my sister and her son and pray God’s divine peace over them both. My dad’s death was nothing like when my mom died. In fact, I couldn’t even cry at the funeral, because I was so happy for him. I knew he was in paradise and would never have to know fear or sickness again. I was able to comfort all of my dad’s brothers and friends as they were all feeling sorrow and fear over their own fate. I brought two of my uncles back to the Truth after they had turned away believing lies about God being mad at them, and my aunt was also saved and filled with the Holy Spirit before she passed the next year. They were no longer in fear or dread, but the whole family had changed because one person was willing to seek the Truth and no longer accept the lies of the world.

    Poverty and misery were never God’s plans for their lives and they were all flourishing and doing wonderful in less than a year!

    I tell you the truth when I say that we don’t have to accept the bad outcomes and the negative reports by the world, the government or the people. We are a free people when we know the Truth. Jesus is the Truth and He is still alive and working in the hearts of every believer. He and the Father came and made their home with me in 2016, and nothing can stop me from doing all that God has put in my heart to do now, because He told me that there was no more hinderances or limitations. Our God and Creator of the whole universe told me that He was arousing Himself and coming to help me. I didn’t read that in the Bible. I didn’t dream it in the night. That is what the living God spoke to me in an audible voice along with many other encouraging words of love and hope. He said He has loved me with an everlasting love and was well pleased with my life. My life up to that point had been nothing and done nothing, and I realized that it wasn’t about what I had accomplished like job and career stuff, but it was how I had lived to help others even when I didn’t know who I was yet. I still knew that you help people in need and you don’t do things that hurt others. You don’t focus on all the bad but you do what is needed to see good exalted and evil destroyed. It is evil to cause anyone to turn away from God, and many churches have done that, and just like the rest of the world and the people, even the churches need to be fully awakened and walking and living in the Truth. If a person is doing wrong they can quickly be forgiven by repenting and turning to God for help.

    Believing in Jesus is the best thing that I ever did, and asking for help when times were too hard to make it alone are the keys to making it through the good and bad days of life.

    My dad said he was a believer and I know that he did believe that Jesus was God’s son and he died for our sins, but he never understood that Jesus is the treasure and glory for us right now who are living on the earth. Jesus is our ever present help and we are never alone here unless we choose to ignore the greatest blessing and gift imaginable by rejecting the free gift of Salvation through accepting Jesus as our Lord and submitting to his love each day. The Father is able to be with us because of the blood sacrifice of Jesus which makes us pure and free from all guilt of sin. It is strange to someone who doesn’t have understanding, but it is why you need to seek to understand and not just reject what doesn’t fit into your belief system. We are all part of something bigger and all of the lies and schemes of the world will soon be crystal clear and the people will no longer be led astray by lies. But don’t wait to see if you can make it without the Lord. Just surrender and be loved and helped today! Don’t die from fear and wrong thinking and words that snare you. Live and be filled with all that is good and right in Christ!

    I know you aren’t supposed to write a novel on a blog post, but sometimes I can’t stop and it ends up incredibly longer than most people have the patience to finish reading. Make God your top priority and you will read what you need when you need it, and your tine won’t be wasted on nonsense that only causes more suffering in your thoughts and life.

  • Exalt Jesus and Let Truth Reign

    “A warrior filled with wisdom ascends into the high place and releases regional breakthrough, bringing down the strongholds of the mighty.”

    ‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭21:22‬ ‭TPT‬‬

    Let us declare the Truth and destroy the power of evil. God is good and He only does good. He has only good thoughts toward us and we must stop the evil words and thoughts that are nothing but wickedness trying to overtake and break us.

  • What the World Needs Now

    Jesus Christ came into the world to reveal the true nature of the living God. He went around doing good and healing all who were sick and oppressed by the devil.

    When we lift up the Lord with our worship and praise, He is able to rise up and destroy all of our enemies like; doubt and unbelief, poverty, shame and blasphemy or slanderous talk that is evil and destructive to all accept the devil.

    When people slander others they are taking on the role of the devil and are against the Lord Jesus. The Father’s heart for his creation is that all of them be hidden inside His Son and drenched with His favor and blessing that continues to multiply and produce more good for others in need. When everything is working properly together in the body of Christ their is a common growth that brings to maturity and greater intimacy with the Lord

    When we choose to love, bless and pray for those who cause us harm, we plant the seeds of righteousness and that is what is required in order to not have a harvest of weeds and and dried up fields that produce more failure and futile ways of thinking.

    When your heart is plowed up by the threshers, you will know it and you will no longer live to hurt others, but you will live to be a source of support to those under attack due to ignorance or blindness caused through wrong beliefs or rejection of Truth. Closing our hearts to compassion and mercy of others is such a tragic loss to all humanity, because it is only in our compassion that we are able to receive the greatest of blessing. The more a person yields their heart and life over to God, the greater the Love will be experienced in all the world. God chooses to inhabit the people that He has called and set apart for Himself. These individuals are not only the Pope or other highly exalted leaders of men, but they are the weak and the forgotten ones that have seen many sorrows and been through times of testing and came out still willing to love and help even more. Love doesn’t reject anyone, but Love does not exalt evil or rejoice in the lowest ways of living. Love rejoice in the Truth. Jesus is the Truth! He came that we might all have life in its abundance. Abundant life is what every single human being alive today can receive and enjoy from this time forth and forevermore.

    If we choose to follow the way of Jesus, we choose to lay down our lives and plans of success and worldly honors and praises by men in order to raise up the people around us by giving all we have to pour into them and see them expand and grow in love and faith for God’s Kingdom to come through.

    So the key that brought Jesus from the grave to the seat next to the Father was while he was in hell for those three days, he chose to believe that God would do what He said, and even when it looked like there was no hope left at all, and the devil was laughing and calling all of his high ranking leaders to come see the Son of the Living God now the imprisoned slave to the underworld of evil.

    As the place filled with evil and disgusting repugnant rulers laughed and got excited to see their evil plots and plans play out as they believed, the most amazing shift took place and what looked like the broken and defeated son of God being tormented forever, Jesus rose up with a pleasing theme on His tongue and the song that filled the room followed by his uplifted arms in worship and awe to the Father, was enough to invoke the flames of love.

    Every face went from laughing and cruel gnashing of teeth to shrieks of shocking sizzling of their flesh.

    The demons were torched by the flames sent forth from the hands of love that were reaching up to worship the Father of Love. As it is written;

    “Set me as a seal upon your heart, as a seal upon your arm, for love is strong as death, jealousy is fierce as the grave. Its flashes are flashes of fire, the very flame of the Lord.”

    Song of Solomon 8:6 ESV

    Who wants to follow in that pathway of love that leads to a highway of holiness for the people to be completely free from anymore attacks and destruction by evil?

    I tell you that your praise to God is more powerful than any and all the world could purchase to help rescue the poor and afflicted. When we worship in our most holy and pure reborn spirit and put off all thoughts of our flesh and what we are going through in the natural, we are able to bring kingdom of darkness to a pile of rubble under our feet!

    It’s not what we have to do, it’s how we praise the Lord for what He already did that clears the clutter or chaos and evil out of the way and opens up a highway of holiness to rise up and be in the clear forevermore.

    The revelation of how to overcome this world by the blood of Jesus and the word of our testimony comes through believing and trusting in love for others. God longs to see all the families in the earth blessed and prosperous, but the people don’t know what is needed, so they open their mouths and agree with evil instead of good is a dangerous trap, but we can pray for others and see God’s grace and love begin doing what no amount of preaching by man could ever do. He fills the people with the Truth through a supernatural gifting from heaven while the people are asleep.

    Pray and believe and speak only blessing, life and love over your own family and self and over ALL PEOPLE and NATIONS. Don’t repeat anything negative that you hear to anyone else, but take those negative words and destroy them by speaking life words over them and they will fall to the ground unfulfilled! The more you can bind up the evil and release or loosen the good in its place the more peace and joy that will come to you and all those around you too!!

    Even the cacti praise and worship with uplifted arms 🤣
  • Born Again Vintage

    Born Again Vintage

    Last week we opened a thrift boutique called Born Again Vintage to help pay for housing for youth aging out of foster care in Arizona. With a store full of clothing that mostly came from the work that I started doing at the Department of Child Safety back in 2015, along with many people from the community pouring out donations to help, we are open and ready to help the people with all of their clothing needs!

    With our low prices, you can buy clothing for a week for the same price that I spent on my lunch for two yesterday at a sandwich shop! Either we are under priced or the rest of the world is charging far too much for what they are selling!

    The year that I gave everything to help the kids in foster care have a safe place to go while awaiting placement in foster care, is the reason that I am now able to open the store. It was five years ago when I had the opportunity to give everything in order to help the next generation have better, and I jumped at the chance to do it. The department of child safety was in desperate need of a new pathway and with a new director of the agency sitting next to me on a trip to the nation’s capital, I was asked to help him find a place to take the kids that were currently sleeping on the floor of an after hours office.

    It was decided by the leaders at Childhelp that we would move forward and step up to ensure the children in our state received the best rather than the worst that life had to offer. I was determined to see an end to the brokenness of society and the damages inflicted on the people that were suffering for no fault of their own. I gave all of my time and resources to help create the first placement center in Arizona. The agency once had offices lined with garbage that people claimed were donations to help, would never again be forced to choose between a child being in danger at home or suffering from the trauma that would occur while being neglected and alone waiting for a family to take them home.

    We created a beautiful place filled with the best toys, colors, decorations and people. With so many fun and uplifting surroundings, many of the kids never wanted to leave. It was a dream come true and it happened in less than five weeks from the day that I was asked to help. I was the only person that was there who was not being paid. Everyone else had titles and compensation for what they would do and give. I was there because God put me there so He could answer all my prayers. Of course being there multiplied all of my prayers to the point of overflowing God’s bowl. In fact, God told me that my prayers had filled His bowl and that He was arousing Himself and coming out to help me. That was in March 2016. That was also the first month that the number of kids in Az state foster care declined in over eight years. The numbers drastically decreased each month following. It was all noted as the success of the Director of the agency, and he went from being hated by all to praised and declared to be a miracle worker.

    That being said, all of my free work and my endless prayers for them all, made it possible that they soon had so much support and help that they wanted me to take all of the extra donations they were getting to use to help the homeless, because I would go out at night and help the people on the streets, and the workers at dcs wanted to be a part of helping me do that. It is truly an amazing thing that the Lord has done.

    The Lord has always made a way for me to be able to help others in need.

    Soon I had a basement full of formal dresses and business clothes. No one needed them because the pandemic was keeping everyone locked up at home. I decided to open a thrift store and try to sell the clothes so that I could help the kids that were aging out of foster care and had no place to live or any support from family.

    Here we are one week later and with around a thousand dollars in sales and mountains more donations, I do believe that the Lord is going to ensure that the future looks good for all the people who suffered and for those who have been so blessed that they can also be a part of doing good by donating and purchasing items from the store.

    We are a 501c3 charity under Crusaders of Love Inc. The organization that I created in 2019 to help the homeless, so all donations are recognized by the IRS.

    Please pray for us to have great success and to provide the best instead of the worst for the future of our nation!

  • True Happiness

    If you really want to know how to be happy and live a life of wholeness where you are satisfied right now and not looking for the joy that you believe you will finally have in seven years when the debt is paid off or you find a husband and have a family, or you have that perfect job and success. Those things are extras, but alone they will never be enough to satisfy your soul and give you that feeling of joy on a daily basis.
    There is only One way to find completeness, and it doesn’t cost you a penny, but it is more valuable than all the gold and jewels in the world. Until we find the perfect love that comes from God, we will always have an unfulfilled desire in our hearts, and we will never find anything to satisfy that desire in this earth. The reason is simple. He made us and when He did that, He gave us a desire that makes us need Him.
    I see people working so hard to find that joy through everything from jobs, relationships, materialistic things, family, social status, but they refuse to believe that there could be a God that is able to become their most intimate best friend that not only wants to share your joys with us, but wants to cause that joy to be constantly increasing through the awesome gifts and love that He shares with those that really know Him and live in His constant presence.
    I wouldn’t trade anything in the world for what I found when I found this perfect love, and I would even give away all that I have to follow Him anywhere He asked me to go in the world. That is how awesome this One is! There is NOTHING that compares to this awesome God of mine! He is not just for me, He is ready to make your life beautiful and complete also, and He only wants to help us have a better life. He has no strict laws as the man made religions have tried to convince the people for way too long, but He seeks mercy and love from us and that is it!
    Wow a God that asks us to love each other and to forgive one another and to love Him above anything else doesn’t really seem that tough to me. I have walked through the fire and felt the heat of this world as it tried to melt my flesh, but then I discovered a God that promised to keep me safe and guide my every step to make sure I never fell into that scorching heat of this world again. He told me that if I could remove all of the negative from my eyes, than I would soon look up and discover that all of that evil was gone. He promised to fight my battles for me, and to lead me in joyous victories every single time!
    Who is willing to give up the control and finally be a winner every single time they do something?
    I know most of us think we are all good and that this fairytale life is just not possible, but I have a different set of beliefs that I received from God Himself and they not only promise me better tomorrow, but they give me a better today!
    Anyone that really knew me a year or two ago, can tell you that I was a mess! Always late, and stressed out beyond belief, up too late, working so hard to save the world or at least the children in it from abuse and neglect, sickness and poverty, and that is still my passion, but now instead of losing every battle that I used to fight to help these little ones, I step out of the way and go straight to my King! I share my love to help and He shows me how to help in ways that cost me no wasted time and worry, but have an Impact far greater than anything that I could ever do on my own! He is the One that gave me this passion, so of course He knows what I desire to see and He is eager to give me all of the desires of my heart.
    I just wanted to share this because a few people have asked me how I can be so confident that I am believing the right way or the correct God. I know for a fact that there is only One creator of the universe and all that is in it, and I have read His “how to guide” which is that wonderful book covered in dust in many homes called the Bible.
    Do we have to read it to be a Christian? You don’t have to do anything but believe that Jesus is who he said and that his blood was enough to break every chain and give you freedom.
    So if you don’t choose to read the Bible, you will miss out on an amazing gift that never stops giving, and you will never have all that Jesus paid for you to have in this life and you will probably die too young and be sick in your body, but it’s up to you how you want to live or die. I chose to live and so I read the words of life and I read them daily for encouragement and to keep my faith strong in the Truth.

  • Praying for Grace and Mercy

    When the world seems like hatred and division are bigger than Jesus and the Church, we need to pray for God to give more grace and mercy to the people, so they can walk out of the blame game, and begin healing and growing in the right direction.

    The news stories thrive on negativity and they manipulate reality to cause the people to live in constant turmoil and strife. If there was really a need for people to know most of the things that the media bombards the public with, there would be a reason to watch the news, but the Truth is that most stories reported are nothing of value to anyone that takes them in. In fact, most of the hatred and evil comes from the twisted version of the so called “News”.

    From personal experience of being married to a political leader in Arizona, I have watched time and again as the media works to push an agenda that is absolutely opposed to what is really happening. When I was a volunteer and advocate for the children in state foster care, I saw how every negative story that came out against the workers at the Department of Child Safety was pitted to cause the public to hate and blame. The news would tear down every good thing that was happening and they would use slanderous attacks of the people to try and build a story to keep the kids in foster care even further oppressed.

    When I was asked by a reporter how the crisis of so many kids in state care could ever be solved, I smiled and told her it would not be solved by man, but God would provide the needed solutions. The reporter looked at me like I was insane and wanted to know what that meant. She immediately wanted to take it to mean that there was no hope and no one would be able to change the current situation from destruction to hopeful and healed outcomes.

    It was less than a year later when the news stories changed from blame and shame to declaring “Nothing short of a miracle” had occurred with the AZ Foster Care System. Did they begin to praise God for what He did? No, they still looked for everything they could highlight that was not perfect. When they couldn’t find anything to accuse the department of child safety and the leaders of, they turned the stories to start blaming the parents and people. When that didn’t work, they took up a huge research project to focus on and sift through everything they could get ahold of from the requests made to the people for help, so they could build more cases against anyone that would give them some sort of glory for bringing out the “News” that the people need to hear!

    With that being said, I ask you to think about the stories you hear and see on the news and consider how they impact your perspective of the world everyday. If they leave you feeling worried, annoyed, angry, or any other toxic emotion that has no peace with it, why would you continue to allow the media to poison your thoughts and pollute your heart with all that is destruction and demonic?

    We don’t have to live in the filth and mire of misery and her messages. We can live in the light of Christ and walk in the peace of God which brings hope, faith and love that leads us to be grateful and blessed.

  • Hear, Believe and Do!

    Hear, Believe and Do!

    In 2018, there were more than 850,000 abortions in the United States. The land of the free? Home of the brave? Let us not forget that freedom is not to murder, but to live free from the corruption of the world.

    There are no circumstances or situations that are too much for God to heal, help, provide, prosper, make a way or cover in mercy and grace.

    No one has to ever be overlooked or forgotten, and there is no reason that a state or our nation should ever be tearing people apart or working to destroy people or their property.

    Rioting and revenge are not the works of God. They are the work of the devil. The devil is not the one that we should ever be exalting in this nation. We declare that we are, “One nation, under God, indivisible with liberty and justice for all”, so let’s believe that and stop working to destroy and do what is good instead of following the error of lawless people. The enemy came to kill, steal and destroy life. Jesus came so that we might have life more abundantly. Who would you like to exalt as your Lord? The one that kills life or the author of life?

    Believe and understand that God is always good and all who do good belong to Him. If you are acting like a murderer and slandering others and speaking falsely, STOP! Turn from wrong thinking and living and turn to God and be saved! The Redeemed of the Lord are given forgiveness for all of their sins, so they are not subject to sickness, condemnation or judgment by this world.

    Encourage one another and build one another up. Don’t seek what is in it for you, give all that you have no matter what you are called to do. Don’t do a half-ass job and complain later about how things went wrong. If you want to see it done a certain way, do it yourself, but if you want to see it done right, ask God to be your partner and let Him lead! “Don’t be afraid. I am here to help you.”

    Isaiah 41:13. God will come and help you do the work of transforming things from evil to good. Do you know what is required to have divine intervention on anything? Asking God for help. Isaiah 30:18 “Therefore the Lord waits to be gracious to you, and therefore he exalts himself to show mercy to you. For the Lord is a God of justice, blessed are all those who wait for him.”

    God was eager to help me do the work needed in my state and wherever we would go together. He loves being together and blessing the people with good where evil once destroyed and left ruin.

    If you know the Truth, start acting like it and speak what is right and not exalt what is NOT God’s Truth!

    Truth: “No weapon formed against me will ever prosper”

    Those who believe in Jesus will do the works that he did and even greater works…heal the sick, raise the dead, cast out devils…

    Jesus said, “Behold, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over ALL the power of the enemy, and NOTHING shall hurt you.” Luke 10:19

    You can use your authority in Christ to break the power of covid 19 and all sickness over the Body of Christ, by the Authority given as a Believer in the Lord Jesus! And “NOTHING by any means shall harm you!” No weapon has ever been fashioned against you that can harm you. You will refute every tongue that rises up against you in judgement; for this is the heritage of the servants of the Lord and their vindication is from Me, declares the Lord.”

    Sickness should not be exalted ever! Exalt the Word of God and you won’t be sick! “By his stripes we were healed” “I will not forget any of your benefits Lord. You heal all of my sicknesses and forgive all of my iniquities…” “He sent His Word and healed them all” Jesus was the Word of God manifest in the flesh! Receive your healing by receiving the Truth!

    “My people perish for lack of knowledge.” “You will know the Truth and the Truth will set you free”. Jesus is the Truth! Know him by opening your heart to receive Him and asking Him for the Holy Spirit to direct your life in the correct pathway of all Truth. Don’t fall for the deception of the devil anymore! Know what is God’s will and stand firm in that Truth! God does want to heal you, He does want to bless you with hope and a good future. He provides for, He delivers from all troubles, He heals ALL, forgives ALl, endures All, Hopes ALL, believes ALL, He doesn’t insist on His own way, and He doesn’t rejoice with evil, but He rejoices with Truth.

    Know the Truth-The Living Word of God! It is alive and will fill you up to a new life with a new way to see and hear God, and to overcome this world and all that is fallen with it.

    Don’t pretend to know what you don’t know. Humble yourselves and seek God’s righteousness first! It’s not the last resort option to pray! It should be the first thing people do when they see danger for self or anyone!

    Use your mouth for prayer and stop using it to cause harm to self or others by speaking negatively. Negativity is the work of the enemy and will keep people locked in misery, so AVOID it!!

    Bless and pray for ALL!

    Close out the evil and open up for the King of Glory to enter!

    He is good and will always do good for you.

  • It’s All About Jesus

    Jesus is beautiful.
    He is so good and so generous and kind. He gave us everything when He took our place and bore our punishment. How about we acknowledge him and ascribe glory and honor to his name everyday?
    People must choose to believe and accept the Truth that God is love and He created man in love and in His image to be in union with God.
    Jesus is the example of what a son should look like. Obedient, fervent in prayers, focused on the plan and purposes of God and not the will or submission to leaders that rule in error against God’s Word. Jesus chose to give up His life as an act of love and obedience to the Father, so that all the world might be saved from the evil work of the devil.
    The devil was stripped of all power and authority and is not able to come in and destroy unless someone opens the door for him.
    How can we close all the doors that currently are wide open for the enemy to attack and bring ruin and devastation on the earth? We begin by repenting and changing the way we think and view things. By taking the Word of God and making it our own. We accept the Word as our Lord-Jesus Christ, and we allow the Holy Spirit access to begin working in us and through us to fulfill the plans of God for our lives.
    There is good fruit that comes from abiding in Love and walking in union with the Father and Son through the Holy Spirit connection. The Holy Spirit will lead us into all Truth and guide us away from the works of evil.
    “You have not, because you ask not.” What is it that you need? Why would you wait to ask God for help in your time of trouble? Ask for what you need and it will be given to you, but don’t ask in unbelief. Ask in faith and don’t waiver. Know that God is good and that He loves all of His creation so much that He sent Jesus to die and bring the people back from the path of hell.

    When sickness somehow manages to be exalted to such an extreme level that fear is unleashed on the entire world, it’s time for the people in every nation to repent and turn their hearts and hopes back to God. No man can cure what he didn’t create. Only God knows what is needed for every life to be set free from the bondages of evil. Sickness is evil and it requires an open door to come in and wreak havoc on the people.
    Standing in the Truth means not accepting those things that exalt themselves above the Word of God.

    We can’t control people’s thoughts, and therefore we can’t control when or if a person is going to do something evil. What we can do is pray fervently for all people and all nations to be opened up to the righteous judgement of God and turn from their wrong thinking. A thought will eventually produce an action or emotion that will grow into good or evil. We don’t want to teach people how to be in fear, doubt and unbelief, so why would we remove all prayer and bible teachings from the school curriculum? Why would we do everything in our own efforts when it comes to being healed of a sickness or creating communities that are safe and promote good for all? Why not allow God’s plans and purposes that create loving and safe communities where no one is rejected or overlooked?

    If you are alive, you have a purpose and should be doing work for God’s Kingdom to be established here as it is in Heaven. There is no sickness in Heaven. There are no poor, broken and bitter people in Heaven.
    God is good and His ways and thoughts are higher and better than the thoughts that come from the earthly mind. If we don’t know the Will of God, we pray and seek to know more from God. We have the Bible that is filled with who and what God is like as well as the beauty of creation that declares God’s goodness everyday with the sunrise and sunset.
    Don’t reject what you don’t understand, because it is in pride that Satan was cast out of Heaven. When he tried to exalt himself above God and make himself like the most high, he was thrown down and locked out just like he caused man to be forced out of the garden of eden with his deception to Eve in eating the fruit that caused the fall of mankind.

    Scripture says that the accuser of the brethren is Satan, and that he accuses them night and day. Who do you think is at work in the courts and with law suits against others, or when there is a backlash or attack against a person or group of people? When there is slander against a person, or the media reports stories that exalt everything that is negative and cause the people to be in constant turmoil and fear, they are being led by the spiritual forces of darkness. Anyone led by the Holy Spirit of God would know that it is evil to speak words against God’s creation, and to exalt things that are nothing while ignoring the clear solution to every crisis or problem facing the people and the future of humanity.

    Man does have the power to create and destroy, to build up or tear down structures, lives, lands and even destroy the entire world, and that is what would have happened already if God didn’t love us so much to provide us with the way to escape. The way out of a life bent on ruin and devastation that comes through corruption, greed, envy, foolishness, laziness, arrogance, self-centeredness, self reliance, self exalting and ultimately self destruction. Man must surrender their carnal thoughts and actions that possess those desires and take ahold of a Spirit filled life of peace, joy and hope that trusts in God’s finished works. Believing and declaring over their lives the promises of God to see the manifestation of abundance in everything that is needed to thrive and build up those around you to do the same.
    They think it is a waste of time to learn or study the Bible, but they also think that their money and success is what this life was meant to be. They think they are solving world issues like climate changes and world peace, but they don’t have peace themselves, nor do they know how the climate is able to change and sustain life on its own.
    They laugh at the people that put their faith in God, and they mock them and God with their words and teachings, but they are without understanding and in need of help, because they are doomed to eternal hell apart from God. They don’t know that it is God that creates and provides all that was ever needed, but they will one day understand and it won’t be what God wanted for them. God is ready and willing to bring them all into His house of healing love and mercy and offers them forgiveness as soon as they ask, but will they ask? We know from scripture that not all will turn to God for help, but many will remain lost from God.
    Is there anything more that could be done to bring them all home?
    Honestly, if everyone would pray for their enemies and all who have hurt them and caused them to suffer, there would be millions more that don’t have to suffer eternal punishment separated from the presence of God.

    They don’t even realize that they are already living in hell, because they have no hope once their money is gone, and the things of this world begin to disappear from them including their family members and their health. They will likely lose their minds and their misery will be masked under confusion and delusions of reality.

    
    The blood of Jesus paid for sin, accept it and be forgiven! Repent and turn to God’s plans and purpose and live peaceably in a higher realm.

  • Speak the Truth and Live

    Speak the Truth and Live

    As He is, so am I. Through the anointing power of the Holy Spirit, and the confession of my mouth, “I can do all things in Christ who is my strength!”
    “The Lord preserves and keeps my life. I dwell in his safety. He keeps me in perfect peace as my eyes are on him”
    “I lack for nothing in Christ I am above and not beneath! If God is for me, Who would dare be Against me?!?”
    “The Lord gives his angels charge to watch over me in all my ways. They shall bear me up on their hands so that I don’t smash my foot against a stone”

    “The peace of Christ rules in my heart. The spirit of the Lord is upon me. He has anointed me to preach the good news! To declare the favorable year of the Lord. To set the captives free, heal the sick, raise the dead…He has been given all authority in Heaven and on earth, and in His name, I drive back my enemies and expose the works of darkness. Nothing by any means shall harm me. In Christ, I am eternal and my reward is the undeserved, unmerited favor of the Lord on my life from this time forth and forever more! The hand of blessing of the Lord is stretched out upon my head and life! I am mighty in Christ to the pulling down of strongholds and taking captive every disobedient thought to the truth of Christ.”

    God is higher than us, but he comes down low to revive the languishing soul with encouraging words of love and hope. Then He takes us up above those negative thoughts by seating us in Christ in heavenly places!
    Seated in Christ, we have already overcome this world!
    We have all that we will ever need and simply need to push through wrong thinking that binds and torments too many, and causes so much frustration. The reason the people speak scriptures over negative circumstances is to break off those wrong things with the Truth.

    “The prayer of a righteous man has great power as it is spoken!”

    I will call those things that are not as though they are, and I will see the fruit of my lips become a great blessing for me and my city.
    Speak Life by agreeing with God’s Word, and create a beautiful harvest of love every season! Blooming the most fragrant and delightful fruits that create the best wine for the end time!

    The key is the believing part! The Word (Jesus) also says, “These signs will accompany those who believe: in my name they will cast out demons, they will speak with new tongues; they will pick up serpents with their hands; and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not harm them; they will lay hands on the sick and they will recover.”
    Mark 16:17-18
    Jesus also prays to the Father and says, “I do not ask for these only, but also for those who will believe in me through their word.” John 17:20.
    If you believe in Jesus, because you heard the Words of life and accepted them as the Truth (Jesus is the Truth, life and way) you are also granted access into God’s Kingdom through the faith you have to believe that Jesus truly was who he said and His Words are Life, so Believe and accept them. He paid for us to be healed, whole and fellow heirs in the Kingdom of God. It’s not a fairy tale. It is the Truth, but if you don’t believe, you will have what you believe in. I have Christ in me, but no sickness. I don’t believe in sickness, and I don’t allow other people to tell me that I should go to the doctor for check ups “just in case”. There is no “just in case”. God’s Word is Either absolute Truth or not. If your thoughts question “maybe God didn’t really say that about me being healed or maybe it was just for others but not for me” those thoughts are from the devil and therefore you must refuse them!
    We need to remind each other always that God is in us and how can we be sick when God is in us? Tell your mind what is True and only accept God’s Truth and you won’t be open to accepting every other negative report from people who are “experts” but their expertise is without godly wisdom and knowledge of the Holy one.

    So maybe we should be asking, “who needs us to come and lay hands on them for healing?”
    We are the solution to the virus. We are the vaccine! Those who have the Truth are always the Vaccine to all issues in this world. I am not bragging, I am speaking the Truth. I have plenty of oil in my lamp to help light the path for any in darkness to come out and be healed. I spent the last four years gaining wisdom and being taught by the Lord. I might not be ordained as a preacher, or have a degree in theology, but when God called my name in the middle of the night, I arose and went with Him to be taught and to pray for all people and nations. When the Holy Spirit led me to people in need, I helped them. When I saw things that didn’t align with God’s Word, I prayed, they might be corrected.
    I am not perfect, but Jesus is, and He completes me so that I am without fault in the presence of my Heavenly Father.

    “The tongue of the wise is health” Proverbs 12:18

    When you can do nothing more, stand and don’t give in to follow the crowd in unbelief, but hold fast to the Words of life!

  • The Lord is Our Righteousness

    “Behold, I will bring to it health and healing, and I will heal them and reveal to them abundance of prosperity and security. I will restore the fortunes of Judah and the fortunes of Israel, and rebuild them as they were at first. I will cleanse them from all the guilt of their sin against me, and I will forgive all the guilt of their sin and rebellion against me. And this city shall be to me a name of joy, a praise and a glory before all the nations of the earth who shall hear of all the good that I do for them. They shall fear and tremble because of all the good and all the prosperity I provide for it.

    the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the voices of those who sing, as they bring thank offerings to the house of the Lord: “‘Give thanks to the Lord of hosts, for the Lord is good, for his steadfast love endures forever!’ For I will restore the fortunes of the land as at first, says the Lord.

    “Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will fulfill the promise I made to the house of Israel and the house of Judah. In those days and at that time I will cause a righteous Branch to spring up for David, and he shall execute justice and righteousness in the land. In those days Judah will be saved, and Jerusalem will dwell securely. And this is the name by which it will be called: ‘The Lord is our righteousness.’”

  • Hidden in Plain Sight

    When I stopped at a QT (gas station) in Phoenix last year, the Holy Spirit drew my attention to a young man sitting on the ground outside the store. I watched him for a minute and tried to decide if he needed money, food or just someone to talk to him, but I wasn’t sure what to do, so I went inside the store.

    As I was walking to the cashier I saw the young man was actually at the register talking to the worker now. I overheard the cashier telling the guy that he knew he was good, and that he trusted him. The guy was refilling a drink and letting him know that he had purchased the drink a few minutes earlier before the worker was there. The cashier was so kind and genuine to the guy that I was incredibly pleased to learn more about this situation.

    When it was my turn to check out, I asked the cashier about the young man, and the cashier went on and on about what a great guy he was. He told me that the guy always gives everything he has away to anyone in need even though he is homeless and has no means to buy anything without people helping him. As he was sharing all of this, I turned to look behind me and apologize to the long line that formed behind me. When I looked at the people in line, I could see they had been listening to the conversation about the guy on the ground out front and it was clear that some of them were feeling very ashamed of the way they had never considered helping him, or what they had been thinking about the guy when they saw him.

    I went to my car and saw the guy sitting on the ground in the same spot as before, so I went over and began talking to him. I asked him if he was hungry or needed anything. We ended up talking for over an hour. I was so amazed at the life of this young man who had overdosed on drugs at age 19, but was rescued by an angel that carried him from the place where he had collapsed and took him to Jesus.

    It was the story of a lifetime that could change the world if they only heard it and realized how amazing our Lord is, but no one was going to be calling this man to appear on any television shows, because he was too humble and meek to call attention to himself. I could sense Jesus all over the guy and all of his characteristics were evidence that he had been with Jesus. It was so exciting for me to be able to meet someone that I could share some of my own experiences with, and not have to feel like I was trying to get attention, but just wanted to share and hear about someone else’s journey with Jesus.

    I will never forget that guy, because he was more important to me than any famous person would ever be, and I would have given him my car and money for a hotel if he would have taken it, but he wasn’t interested in being taken captive by materialistic things and that was why he always gave everything away and only kept what was needed to survive. I know it might seem like it was no big deal to meet this man, but I tell you the truth when I say that he was a very rare jewel that God had kept hidden for Himself. He didn’t allow him to be pulled back into the world’s corruption but instead he taught him how to trust in God and what He would do for Him.

    That was one of the precious and rare jewels that the Lord led me to find that year, and definitely one of my favorites. Young and wise and without being stained and defiled by the world. Yes, he had once been a drug dealer and overdosed at age 19, but he was the furthest thing from dead when I met him, and probably had more life than any person that would pass him going in and out of that convenience store each day.

    God was making it convenient for people to see and help him, but many were purposely looking away to avoid having to help or speak to him. He said that God would tell him not to take anything from some people, and he knew who it was that would give him something before they would come over to him. I thought he would start to get discouraged if people continued to be rude and ignore him, but he said that Jesus always kept him in peace and prayers, and life was like an adventure every day.

    How exciting to look at life in such a beautiful way when you have no home and no way of knowing how you will eat or shower each day! That is truly trusting God for all your needs. Most of us would be afraid to drive our car not knowing where we were going if God was trying to lead us to help someone, but this man had given all of himself to do and go wherever the Lord would instruct him. He said he was going back to Houston soon, and he did try to contact me once, but he didn’t have a phone and I couldn’t find him at the QT when I went back again, so I assume he left town and went on to teach others what it means to live free and full of life.

    Jesus is life and if you are wondering why you have never met him or talked to him and had him respond, it might be that you have not humbled yourself to allow Him into your life. When you have everything, and nothing is broken or needing fixed as far as it looks on the surface, it might seem like the good life, but if I had never been crushed and afflicted, I would most likely still be blind and deaf to the Lord. It is worth losing everything if it means meeting Jesus and having Him as your closest friend! There is no amount of money or fame that can compare to the friendship of Jesus.

  • When The People Turn and Help Each Other, God is Pleased

    “Is not this the fast that I choose: to loose the bonds of wickedness, to undo the straps of the yoke, to let the oppressed go free, and to break every yoke? Is it not to share your bread with the hungry and bring the homeless poor into your house; when you see the naked, to cover him, and not to hide yourself from your own flesh?

    Then shall your light break forth like the dawn, and your healing shall spring up speedily; your righteousness shall go before you; the glory of the Lord shall be your rear guard.

    Then you shall call, and the Lord will answer; you shall cry, and he will say, ‘Here I am.’ If you take away the yoke from your midst, the pointing of the finger, and speaking wickedness, if you pour yourself out for the hungry and satisfy the desire of the afflicted, then shall your light rise in the darkness and your gloom be as the noonday.

    And the Lord will guide you continually and satisfy your desire in scorched places and make your bones strong; and you shall be like a watered garden, like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail.

    And your ancient ruins shall be rebuilt; you shall raise up the foundations of many generations; you shall be called the repairer of the breach, the restorer of streets to dwell in.

    “If you turn back your foot from the Sabbath, from doing your pleasure on my holy day, and call the Sabbath a delight and the holy day of the Lord honorable; if you honor it, not going your own ways, or seeking your own pleasure, or talking idly; then you shall take delight in the Lord, and I will make you ride on the heights of the earth; I will feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father, for the mouth of the Lord has spoken.””

    ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭58:6-14‬ ‭ESV‬‬

  • Today is the Day of Salvation

    What is freedom? Are we really understanding what it means to be the home of the free and the brave? We pledge and declare to be “…one nation under God indivisible, with liberty and justice for all” but the people all seem to be blind and without God’s Truth abiding in them.

    Are we a nation locked up in fear of catching a virus? I understand that many have suffered greatly from the evil of this sickness, but we can see this virus completely removed from our nation and the nations of the world if we choose to believe in God’s Word.

    We simply ask in prayer that our loving Heavenly Father step in and help us by breaking the stronghold of fear and sickness off the people right now. We ask in faith that our wonderful Jesus be glorified and honored by making his name and power known to the lost and to the afflicted lives suffering so terribly across the world right now.

    There is a solution and it doesn’t require years to see it working. It is the Lord Jesus our righteousness and our mighty deliverer and savior of the world. Jesus is the solution to every problem and his free gift to us is himself. We are able to receive healing in our bodies and minds, as well as in our relationships, finances, and families. God is a restorer who already gave us the antidote for all of the evils of this world. Isaiah 9:6 “For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”

    He has received the highest honor and glory for laying down his own life and taking upon his own body all the sins of the world. He was whipped and put to death on a cross while the Father turned away for that brief moment and Jesus was left completely alone and abandoned by all his friends, family and the Father. Jesus went to hell for three days so that no one would ever have to go there, but those who reject the love and mercy of God’s salvation will be eternally separated from the glorious presence of God that keeps us in health and perfects us in love. This is not for after we leave this earth. It is salvation for today! Today is the day of Salvation for all who have yet to receive it by faith in believing on Jesus as the Son of God who is able to save even to the outer most parts. Call upon his name and be saved! All who call on his name this day will receive the full salvation package and be restored to full health.

    Believe in good and reject the evil! I don’t care what the experts say, no one is higher than God, so believe what He has already declared from the beginning! Peace, health, prosperity and a future that is good for those who choose to agree with Him. Agree with the devil and you will continue to have sickness, poverty and spiritual blindness.

    Jesus didn’t die for his own sins, he gave his life for us to be set free! His one selfless act of obedience to the Father, made it possible for us to be given immunity from the punishment of our sins. He did it for all of the sinners, the rich, the poor, the addict, the businessman, the politician, the nurse, the police officer, the prostitute, the beggar, the Banker, the oppressed, the shamed and the outcast, and he did it so none of us would ever have to suffer that same punishment for sin again! God’s justice for all who choose to believe in Christ is ruled in our favor and we flourish in the Truth!

    We are free when we know the Truth! Free from all that we formerly could not be free of in this life. It is a supernatural exchange when we receive Jesus as our Savior and Lord and we ask Him to come and live inside of us and take away all of our sins so we can live with him and never be locked out of eternal life and the blessing of God. We enter an eternal, unbreakable covenant of peace. We are reconciled back to our Heavenly Father and we are no longer a cast away drowning without a life preserver. We will not sink under the waves, because we now have the righteous right arm of God holding us up!

    I don’t care what it looks like in the natural. If you will simply speak words that agree with God and not allow corrupt communication to flow from your lips, you will see the glory of God arise upon your life. Ask and you will receive, seek and you will find, knock and it will be opened! Believing God’s Word as your highest authority and eternal truth will keep you from sickness and evil.

    God’s thoughts are only good about you, and His plans and purposes are always to build you up and make you stand strong in the Truth, so you are able to reign and rule in this earth and overcome the enemy. The blood of Jesus and the word of your transformational testimony of Jesus healing and delivering your life are the only keys you need to be an overcomer! Trust God and believe that Jesus is not only able to keep you from falling, but he will also teach you how to receive the love that perfects each of us to the highest realm of God’s glory.

    It is truly a matter of BELIEVING God’s Word or rejecting it and accepting the lies of the one who came to kill, steal and destroy every man. Choose life by choosing to believe in Jesus! Read the Word of God and it will become your life and you will not be caught in the web of deception that the enemy has laid for those in darkness to be trapped.

    God is good. God is love.

    No one else is good apart from God. This is the Truth. If something is good, it is of God. If it is evil, it is not of God. Negativity-complaining, speaking words of hatred or death over people all from the realm of darkness. This is why you pray for all people and all nations. You bless and you don’t curse! Stop back biting others and start blessing and being obedient to God by loving Him and others.

  • He is Restoring us and Bringing Health and Healing

    “Behold, I will bring to it health and healing, and I will heal them and reveal to them abundance of prosperity and security. I will restore the fortunes of Judah and the fortunes of Israel, and rebuild them as they were at first. I will cleanse them from all the guilt of their sin against me, and I will forgive all the guilt of their sin and rebellion against me. And this city shall be to me a name of joy, a praise and a glory before all the nations of the earth who shall hear of all the good that I do for them. They shall fear and tremble because of all the good and all the prosperity I provide for it.”

    “Give thanks to the Lord of hosts, for the Lord is good, for his steadfast love endures forever!’ For I will restore the fortunes of the land as at first, says the Lord. “Thus says the Lord of hosts: In this place that is waste, without man or beast, and in all of its cities, there shall again be habitations of shepherds resting their flocks. In the cities of the hill country, in the cities of the Shephelah, and in the cities of the Negeb, in the land of Benjamin, the places about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, flocks shall again pass under the hands of the one who counts them, says the Lord.”
    ‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭33:6-9, 11-13‬ ‭ESV‬‬

  • The Truth Will Set You Free

    How hard the battles and times of testing have been, but do not give up and remain faithful even to death and you will receive the crown of life!
    This world has worn many of God’s people down with sickness and suffering, but I am praying for a powerful refreshment of the Holy Spirit to come and restore us all again!
    It is okay to ask God for answers when you don’t know what is happening, but don’t turn away and blame God for the suffering, because it is not His will.
    We have the power of life and death in our mouths. When you speak love and life words you will see a new day that you can flourish and bloom into a hope-filled, faith abiding, child of God. If you need help, cry out for help, and for God’s sake, REPENT and stop trying to figure this world out without God’s help! You can’t fix this world with the carnal mind, nor can you overcome this world without being spirit born. It is time to celebrate, because our sins are forgiven through the sacrificial lamb of God, and all things are restored by declaring and believing in God’s Word.
    but if we never knew what we lost or what Jesus provided, we will continue to live in defeat and despair, because the world has been in darkness and only those who come into the light are able to see what is true and what is falsehood.
    Don’t let the powers of darkness deceive and destroy you or your family anymore! Call on the name of Jesus and BELIEVE that his love will carry you into the light of a new day.

    The daylight is coming! Don’t give up on Love!
  • Transformation of A Nation

    Transformation of A Nation

    https://youtu.be/d9zoq3k-3K0

    The link is to a video of a song that was used to promote the mini-series A.D. Please watch it, because it is a powerful message in itself.

    I remember watching the television mini-series A.D. in 2015, and I fell in love with everything about Jesus and his disciples. I loved that they were willing to lay everything down to spread the Truth of God’s good news, and they were not going to let anything stop them from fulfilling the purpose Jesus had given them.

    I was just learning the Bible at that time, so it was wonderful to see some of it in action through the mini-series which covered the book of Acts. I thought it was such a beautiful picture of what love should be, so I grabbed hold of that message and began living my life for the King of Kings.

    I was so on fire for everything that I would learn each day in the scriptures and I had to share it with everyone!

    I always thought “those people” the ones saying, “Jesus Loves you!” And going about all happy and peaceful we’re kind of annoying. There was no peace in my life before 2015, and I was on the misery train to hell. Complaining, ungrateful and never satisfied with anything, because it was never enough.

    Things were totally different after watching that television series and turning my full attention to the Bible and wanting to actually understand it.

    A shift took place in my life that was so powerful that the Lord told me it had caused a whirlwind.

    How did that happen? I saw what Love truly is, and my heart melted into one that God could use for His works to manifest through. Not because I was perfect or knew everything, but because I found the Truth about what it means to Love others more than self. Nothing could deter me from loving and sharing all that I had.

    I was determined to bring back that message of Love that was so raw, pure and holy that everyone was willing to give all they had to help their brothers and sisters, even at the cost of their own lives. I asked God how I could best share His love with a hurting and broken world, and He gave me the grace to begin praying fervently night and day for three years straight.

    I thought it was just me, and that I somehow had some special love that was greater than most other people, because I was unable to ignore anyone in need, and it was so necessary for me to go out and help each day. I realized later that I had been transformed and was no longer the spoiled, all about me selfish person that I had been my whole life. I had become like the One that I was so focused on and couldn’t imagine ever doing even a day without Him.

    I spent my days immersed in all that the Lord wanted to teach me. I had found my best friend and greatest delight and desire in Christ. I was so happy with just being with him each day, and I loved being led to find people that we would help each day. I truly have no idea how many people we have stopped and helped over the last five years, but I have many amazing testimonies about those individuals that changed my life forever.

    To see through the eyes of love and understand the hurts and afflictions of others is a very humbling experience. I can say that I probably had as many tearful times as I did joyful, because the suffering of so many people was heartbreaking each day. I wanted them all healed and helped, but I know many of them were not changed the way that I had hoped they would be. I had to come to the place of understanding that not all people want to be healed, and not all people are able to accept that their is a God who loves them completely. I would feel the Father’s heart for these people living on the streets or stumbling around with no understanding of who they were and why God created them.

    Most people that we helped were from the foster care system or had a horrific childhood that caused them to be alone and lost on the streets as young adults. Living on the streets was obviously not what any of them dreamed for their lives when they were children, but the world and their own families had left them rejected and seen as outcasts.

    The issue of drugs impacted most of them, because that is what you do when you are broken and the devil slimes into your life to ensure further destruction that will keep these young adults from ever knowing how to have hope and see their dreams come to life. Most of them had no dreams anymore, and they had come to the place of acceptance with their lives being locked out of the world.

    I love how Jesus always wants to save the people that no one else cares or shows compassion or any interest in them. Heroin addicts were some of the hardest people for me to leave on the streets, because I knew that if we didn’t get them help, they most likely would never be free.

    I wish that I could say we changed the whole world my beautiful Savior and I, but it would be a far stretch to claim that I did anything but yield to the Lord. He did everything through me. As long as there was no fear in me, he could take over and do amazing things to help the broken people everyday. I was fearless because I knew it was all Jesus and I couldn’t fail or get hurt as long as He was in control.

    I wouldn’t trade those days for anything! Some people might say it cost me greatly as far as giving up my own life, but I truly never had a life before I surrendered it to Jesus. I was just like every other wife and mother stuck cleaning for hours a day, and never having anything that could ever make me feel satisfied in life. The big house, nice cars and all that is supposed to be the “American Dream” always made me feel like I was living in a nightmare that I wanted so desperately to wake up from.

    Jesus woke me up and it was the most amazing journey to freedom that I never imagined possible.

    Life is what you make it, I made it difficult and empty, but God made a way to fill it with good things that renewed my youth and gave me eternal life in HD quality color and clarity.

    I want to add that through every painful trial that I went through, the Lord always came powerfully through and many days He would simply wrap His arms around me and hold me as I would find myself sobbing and broken for my own mistakes in life and the injustices of the world that were so clear from a higher perspective. I wanted to fix everything, but God had a better plan. He wanted to allow all of the people to come to Him so they could become His partner and do their part.

    I have sat and watched the thousands of prayers that He had me pray come to pass or begin to take shape, and there is a beautiful love that is happening through this whole covid 19 crisis. When all the masks finally come off, everyone will understand that they are no longer who they once were when they see their reflection in the mirror again.

  • We Have It Inside!

    When our hearts are offended and darkened or we are walking in unforgiveness that becomes bitterness of soul, we need God to help us break up that ground of our hearts so we can receive His Word and it is able to take root and grow up into a righteous plant that is able to grow good fruit that many can eat and be nourished. If we spend all our time trying to put seeds of Truth into the hearts that are hardened and full of thorns, we can expect a very small harvest later from those seeds planted in the weeds. But if we first pray and ask God to help open and heal the hearts including ours so that they are then ready and ripe soil that will receive the Truth and hold it in an upright heart that will mature into a beautiful harvest of righteousness for our community and nation to become strong and full of life! That life being the very life of Christ. Christ in us is the hope and glory that will make us shine brightly and cast out all darkness. They will know us by our love. So Love!

    
    

    we need to BELIEVE and receive and be led to ALL Truth by the power of the Holy Spirit, so yes, it requires more than just a visit to the mega church to make it on faith right now! It takes union with God through the Holy Spirit leading us daily. If you seek, knock and ask, you will find an open door to receive the Holy Spirit!

    Journal Entry November 2019

    Electrical storm is on the way!

    Watch the skies and see the stripes during the time of planting, see the crossing signs when it is time to shift again.

    No one is against you! They are all pulling for you to reach the top where you can see clearly.
    There is only faith, hope and LOVE that can live here at this realm. Who believes what he has heard? Don’t doubt the Truth because the Truth is the only WAY to catch that glory bound train of believers!
    Love can always be found, so run after LOVE with all of your heart and let go of your falsehoods that can’t satisfy you for even one dark night without Love on your side.
    Today is the day of salvation! Ask and receive, and ALWAYS understand that our God is GOOD! He has planned a celebration station at every turn for this generation!!
    No more fighting in the streets, no more helpless, no more homeless, no more bitter or broken cisterns, because we are ALL forgiven as soon as we make that call!!!
    It’s not the glory that we are needing my dear beloved ones. It’s the Rock that keeps us aloft without fear of a great fall!
    Let the worries go, and run after him with all of your heart this time!
    Stop believing that it’s a race to compete and that you can find defeat! Believe that I am your VICTORY and I will never forsake those in my keep.

    If you want to hear my voice, stop believing that you can’t hear it and start declaring my TRUE, SPIRIT LIFE WORDS.
    “My sheep hear my voice…”

    Live for true food, give your best to the least and the worst, and you will see the waves of mercy washing each life clean.
    Shout out the victory and stand in my authority that you have been given.

    Don’t believe that God is asking you to carry sickness or any other burden of evil. He said to cast your cares on him, because he cares for you. He wants to carry your heavy burdens so that you are free from worry, fear and stress, because those are the things that can cause suffering if you hold on to them.
    Release the blessings oh Lord!

  • Stepping Out For Jesus

    Two quick stories from my adventures with Jesus:

    I heard about a teen girl that was really sick and maybe going to die in California a few years ago, so I hoped in my car and drove there alone on my birthday.

    I showed up at the house and had never met any of them, but they asked me to come in and share with them what God had for them to hear.

    I was totally freaked out and thought I was gonna be a big disappointment to that family, but Jesus is the healer and I just had to step out in faith and believe for her healing to manifest. She was healed and helping others a week later.

    I went to the hospital about six months ago to pray for a man in icu that I didn’t even know his name, and I went alone because it was a friend’s brother and they said he was gonna die. I wasn’t even sure if I was praying over the right person that day, because no one was there but me and the nurse. I saw the life come back to him as I spoke to him while he was in the coma.
    They tried to say he was going to be taken off life support a few days later, and I got mad and began crying out to God to save him!

    I said, “God, you said that these signs would follow those who believe, they will lay hands on the sick and they will recover! I did that and I believe, so that man has to be healed, because it is written truth!”

    I then added, “let him wake up and look right at his sister, so she knows they are not to pull that plug of life support!”

    As I was speaking I felt something break, and my head was pulled upward as if to be looking into my Father’s face, and it was over. The man was healed immediately!
    He did exactly what I prayed! He woke up and looked at his sister. The man is totally healed and left the hospital a week later.

    God is good!

  • Eat and Live!

  • Why Have We Fasted and Prayed with No Answer?

    www.bible.com/59/isa.58.1-13.esv

    ““Cry aloud; do not hold back; lift up your voice like a trumpet; declare to my people their transgression, to the house of Jacob their sins. Yet they seek me daily and delight to know my ways, as if they were a nation that did righteousness and did not forsake the judgment of their God; they ask of me righteous judgments; they delight to draw near to God. ‘Why have we fasted, and you see it not? Why have we humbled ourselves, and you take no knowledge of it?’ Behold, in the day of your fast you seek your own pleasure, and oppress all your workers.

    Behold, you fast only to quarrel and to fight and to hit with a wicked fist.

    Fasting like yours this day will not make your voice to be heard on high. Is such the fast that I choose, a day for a person to humble himself? Is it to bow down his head like a reed, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him?

    “Will you call this a fast, and a day acceptable to the Lord? “

    “Is not this the fast that I choose: to loose the bonds of wickedness, to undo the straps of the yoke, to let the oppressed go free, and to break every yoke? Is it not to share your bread with the hungry and bring the homeless poor into your house; when you see the naked, to cover him, and not to hide yourself from your own flesh? Then shall your light break forth like the dawn, and your healing shall spring up speedily; your righteousness shall go before you; the glory of the Lord shall be your rear guard. Then you shall call, and the Lord will answer; you shall cry, and he will say, ‘Here I am.’ If you take away the yoke from your midst, the pointing of the finger, and speaking wickedness, if you pour yourself out for the hungry and satisfy the desire of the afflicted, then shall your light rise in the darkness and your gloom be as the noonday. And the Lord will guide you continually and satisfy your desire in scorched places and make your bones strong; and you shall be like a watered garden, like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail. And your ancient ruins shall be rebuilt; you shall raise up the foundations of many generations; you shall be called the repairer of the breach, the restorer of streets to dwell in. “If you turn back your foot from the Sabbath, from doing your pleasure on my holy day, and call the Sabbath a delight and the holy day of the Lord honorable; if you honor it, not going your own ways, or seeking your own pleasure, or talking idly;”

  • Purified Through Prayers

    Purified Through Prayers

    “”Arise, cry out in the night, at the beginning of the night watches! Pour out your heart like water before the presence of the Lord! Lift your hands to him for the lives of your children, who faint for hunger at the head of every street.””
    Lamentations 2:19 ESV

    I came across this scripture back in 2015, and I took it to heart. I began praying every night for hours and hours asking for God to help the children in the Arizona foster care system and those that were abused and taken into captivity by sex traffickers and other evils.

    I prayed for every kid that I heard about and all those that I would never meet or know anything about. I prayed for their parents, their teachers, their futures, their safety, their dreams, their hearts and their souls. I prayed so much that God finally came and spoke to me to answer some of my prayers in my hearing.

    He told me that all of my prayers had risen up and filled His bowl. He told me that I know longer needed to fear or fight this battle for the children alone, because He was arousing Himself and coming out to put an end to the things that were happening. He said that I would soon look up and there would be no more wickedness. He even assigned Angels that day to help me. He said that whatever I wanted to do and had been trying to do, but had been denied or blocked, would no longer be hindering me.

    It was the greatest news that I ever received! I couldn’t wait to see how many kids would be saved and how much good would begin to happen in my state and nation.

  • Fallen Soldier

    Fallen Soldier

    When you are an obedient soldier, you do as you have been commanded, but what happens to the soldier that has taken so many hits that they can’t stand anymore?

    I was out driving one night and the Holy Spirit had me stop to help a person sleeping under a bus stop bench. It was around 11pm, and I had to park my car and walk over to this person through some bushes and a ditch. It was one of those times when I wanted to find a way out of this, because it seemed like a lot of work that could end up being an unsafe risk. The Holy Spirit would never lead me into a dangerous area that I wasn’t equipped to handle, but I was debating this assignment for awhile.

    Finally I had the items that I was going to bring the person and I prayed over them and decided there was no getting out of this, so I put on my big girl pants and made the short hike to where the man was laying behind the bus stop bench. As I approached him, I could hear what seemed to be sobbing. Instantly my heart ached to help him.

    I walked over and placed some water, money and scripture cards and a book on the ground. I whispered, “I brought you some water and other items to help you. God bless you!” He reached out his hand to take them, and I saw that he was a soldier with military attire. He was really big too, but with a soft voice he said, “Thank you so much. This means more then you will ever know.”

    I had never been at a loss for words as I was right then. All the people that I usually help are drug addicts, prostitutes or people that have no self esteem or confidence, but this guy looked like a navy seal and someone that was known as a brave and strong soldier. How could I possibly have any words or advice to give him?

    I started to walk away, and I let him know that he was not alone and that the Lord had sent me to help him. I told him to read the book that I brought, because it would help him get through the struggle he was facing. He said that he would read it and thanked me again.

    I drove away and prayed for him with tears pouring down my own cheeks. I thought about how many people would have jumped at the chance to help this brave soldier if they had only known the battle he was facing alone that night. Then I realized that we are all facing battles everyday and most of us would rather die then have to share the things that are tearing us apart inside.

    I heard a pastor preach on pride shortly after that, and he said that pride was how Lucifer fell and that we were not to have pride. He claimed that anyone who doesn’t confess their wrongs to another person is in pride and will fall. I realized that night when I was instructed to help that soldier behind the bus stop that God wasn’t going to make anyone fall, but He would lift us up with His righteous right hand and keep us from the evil one that would try to cause us shame, fear, anguish and misery.

    It is of great value to have an intimate relationship with the Lord and not just follow what a church leader tells you about God. God can’t be contained in a box or a religion, because no one can fully know all that there is to know about Him, but He does invite us into a sweet adventure with Him to grow in our understanding and expand our thinking to rise up in Love.

  • The Days of Doubting God are Gone

    One time I asked God if it would be possible for me to speak blessings over the drivers on the freeway, and they would actually be blessed.

    I started declaring blessings over the people everywhere I went and calling for divine protection over the roads and freeways. I wasn’t sure if those things were typical or something that God would respond to, but I found out quickly that it is our faith that He responds to and not our doubt and unbelief.

    When I began praying fervently for everything that was not good to come into alignment with God’s Word, and I would call those things that are not, as though they are, those things would be corrected and manifest as I had declared and believed when I spoke.

    When I would carry on conversations all day long with the Lord and treat Him as though He was always with me, I would always hear and feel Him with me.

    When I got disappointed and discouraged and started to doubt and blame God for things, I suddenly felt like I had to find God. I no longer talked to Him like He was always there. I started acting like an unbeliever that needed to discover again who God is and who I am. All the amazing encounters and experiences that were so wonderful were always being overshadowed by hidden doubts and discouragement. I needed my heart to be cleansed again and my life to be fueled with faith and not fear.

    It was a battle raging in my own thoughts that had to be conquered, because I was focusing on things that caused me to have doubts and to lose sight of the Truth.

    I wanted to get back into that sweet place where I once lived in God’s heart, but my words were against me and my tongue was always speaking evil lies like, “I will never be able to …” or “No one will listen…”

    I am sharing this, because it is not a good place to live when your mouth keeps speaking against the things that you are wanting to see.

    It is a matter of agreeing with God’s Word about who He is and who He says we are, and not losing sight of the Truth. The world will always try to question what God has said or who God is, but when we make it up in our heart to reject all evil and accept only the good, we are children of God that can stand and speak forth words of life that will produce good.

    God is good and He will always uphold all who are falling. It is good to trust God and not question his goodness, but reject all evil and praise God for giving you the power to destroy the darkness!

  • July 2016 Journal Entry-My Daily Adventures With Jesus

    In the middle of the scorching AZ summer heat, there lay a man sleeping on the sidewalk beside a circle K at a busy intersection in North Phoenix. I saw him from my car as I was waiting for the light to change, so I did what any normal person would do, and I darted three lanes over to access the turning lane. I quickly flipped a U turn and zipped into the parking lot. I stared at the young man for a minute to see if he was breathing or not, because the temps were around 116 at this point and there had been several deaths in the few days prior to this, because of excessive heat, so I wasn’t sure what to do. I asked God to help me and I jumped out of my car and headed over to the man’s body.
    I woke him up and tried not to startle him too bad, because all I knew about him was he was homeless and he had a lighter near him with a grocery bag.
    He had a little blood on his chest but he said he was fine.
    I asked if I could get him anything, besides the cold drinks and money I just gave him. He asked if I had a cigarette, and said, I am sure you probably don’t have one. I laughed and went to my car and pulled out a pack of Marlboro lights that I had bought on a recent trip to the casino. I didn’t really smoke cigs anymore, but I always liked to be prepared for any emergency moments.
    He asked me what church I was with, and I told him that I wasn’t with a church, but I had come to help him with asking God for what he needed.
    I prayed for him to have the doors open for help with work and a place to live. Then we talked for about fifteen or twenty mins about his childhood and family.
    He had a rough start for sure, and he believed all the bad things people said about him, and he thought he was never going to be able to do anything because of those negative beliefs wounding his soul.
    Soon a man in a pick up truck pulled up right in front of where we were sitting on the ground. The guy thought I knew him, because the man was waiting for us to finish talking so he could talk to him.

    As I was leaving, I looked at the guy by the truck and I told the young man on the ground that God had sent the man to help him with what he would need next.
    I don’t know why I was so confident about that, but I truly believed that God had answered my prayer that quickly and the 23 year old young man was going to have a new life.
    I never saw him again, but when I looked into his eyes, I saw Jesus, and that was not the first time that happened while I was helping a total stranger.

  • Truth Never Lies

    Why do we look around and see poverty, oppression, depression, addiction, diseases and any affliction that is causing lives to be held down in bondage?


    Did we believe the lies instead of the truth? What is truth? I can only share what I know for a fact as truth, and that is
    that God has loved me with an everlasting love that never fails or forsakes, regardless of all my mistakes!
    There is only One creator of the universe, but there is a ruler of this world that is a thief, liar and murderer who has been destroying lives from the beginning, and he has caused so many people to believe that it is God’s fault that lives are destroyed.


    I will only believe what I know is true, because I am tired of living in a world of lies that destroy and devastate everything and everyone I see today.
    Who told you that you need to be filled with toxic poisons to escape Cancer? Who told you that your parents are addicts and you will be also? Who told you that you are worthless and no one cares about your life? Who told you that wearing expensive clothes and living in a big house will make you better than others? Who told you that success is measured by how much you have saved in the bank or what your job title is?
    Could all of these lies be from God or the deceiver and ruler of this world?
    God says that you are a beloved daughter or son and heir to the most high King, if you believe in Him and make Him your Lord. What does that require of you? Nothing but speaking it and believing it. NOTHING MORE has been put on any of us to do, so why do we continue to run away from a God that has promised us life and deliverance from all of the evils that are destroying daily?
    God told me that there is only one thing that can destroy all of the evil completely in this world, and that is LOVE.
    Sounds too good to be true? Well then it is from God, because everything that God does for us is too good to be true according to the standards and the norms of this world.
    I don’t know who you put your faith and trust in, but mine is in the Truth, because I know a God that is beyond awesome and His love and His Word will never pass away.
    My God is not a lie, and He has blessed me in every imaginable way in this life and I already know that when I leave this earth, I am even more blessed with what comes after the ugly lies of the world are gone from my eyes.
    If you can’t understand why you are living in poverty or how to find healing from sickness, turn to God, and He will heal you and bless your life with abundance of joy and all good gifts from above!
    Stop your mouth from speaking against the truth, because you either speak truth and stand with God, or you speak lies and you see the opposite of the good God has for you.

    The people that declare God is not real or they speak lies about Him are under the Lordship of the devil.

    Believe the lies or the truth, but don’t blame my God who is also your creator, because He loves ALL of His children especially the ones that no one else thinks deserve love!

  • Fullness of Joy

    Fullness of Joy

    “You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.”
    ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭16:11‬ ‭ESV‬‬

    Many know the reality of these words written by the psalmist, but many more have yet to truly experience and encounter the love of our Heavenly Father. My hope is that anyone reading these words will begin to pray and seek to experience and enjoy all that God has for us in Christ.

    There is so much more! God is more than a healer, more than a deliverer, more than a Father, more than a provider, more than a friend, He is every good thing that you will ever need in the moment when you need it! His comforting love and companionship are beyond words.

    To have experiential knowledge of God is eternal life. He wants you to experience Him! Invite Him into every part of your life! Your marriage, your work, your friendships, your confusion, your chaos, your quiet time, your dreams, even your nightmares, because He is the One who will fight for you and bless you and protect you when you trust in Him! Give it all to Him, and be completely free from the weights of this world. God bless you!

  • My Encounter with God

    There is a simple solution that makes me so heartbroken to know and yet, no one else seems to understand or believe what The Creator of the universe and all that are in it has said will destroy evil completely, and that is pure love for one another that comes from Him. It almost seems too simple to be true that love is the solution. We all heard it so many times in cheesey love songs that it makes it seem like just a sappy dreamers solution, but I tell you today as the Lord lives, He has spoken to me about this.

    I prayed for two years asking for a way to stop the evil of child abuse and sex trafficking.

    On a beautiful, sunny afternoon a few days before Easter, I was lured to my window when I saw a vapor of mist in the air. I looked out the window and what was once believed in faith, was instantly made real!!
    I heard a voice asking me what did I see? I was shocked, yet completely at peace and overfilled with an amazing joy and love that was encamping me along with the beautiful sparkling bubbles of lights and in the middle was a mini sized tornado thing. I answered and said that I think it is a whirlwind, or some force that is spinning the air around. I was correct He said. Lol. I laugh because it still seems so impossible to actually have a real encounter with what most people will never believe is possible. I probably didn’t believe it was possible either until I was there, and it was happening for real to someone like me. “Someone like me”, meaning that I have no special gifts or greatness, and I am a sinner that loved to sneak away to gamble at the casinos too often, and that was just one of my many sins and faults! So why would I actually be talking to God the Father?

    Well, He told me that I was His beloved daughter that he loved with an everlasting love. He said that He knew that I had been suffering many disappointments that were causing me to harden my heart, but that I need not be concerned about being left behind or forgotten as He knew I felt by the world. He said that He had a special purpose for my life, and that the whirlwind that I was seeing was what my prayers and blessings for strangers had done to the atmosphere. He said that the currents had completely shifted the direction of the winds, because of the love that I was expressing for others in spite of my own circumstances of guilt in sin, financial stress, watching hopes and dreams be crushed, etc. I will be honest in saying that my problems are nothing compared to so many others around me, and I don’t believe that I was in need of being comforted by that visit, because I was actually singing and filled with joy right before that happened.
    God didn’t come to pull me out of the ditch, He came to show me that no matter how far we feel we have fallen in sin, He isn’t worried about that, because He knows that He is able to remove that sin from us at the correct moment.

    God told me that He had an answer for me on how to stop the evil that is destroying lives at birth with drug addicted parents, poverty, abuse, depression, mental illness and disease. He said the answer is LOVE. He said that love is the only thing that can completely destroy evil. He shared more with me, and His words were in a much more God like flow, but most people will have a hard enough time even trying to accept this as truth, and I would not share it today if I didn’t know that this was the correct time that people start to be awakened and aware of this reality that many have believed was a fairytale, myth or a lie, but the lies are actually the ones that have been coming from the evil destroyer known as Satan who is ruler over the earth.
    He has convinced far too many people that God is not real or that He is a bad God to let people suffer and die, but the truth is that, Satan is the one that has caused all of the suffering for people in this earth. When sickness is suddenly causing total panic and fear by the entire world, it is truly the time to repent and turn to God believing that He is good and ready and willing to help his children.

    All who call on the name of Jesus will be saved. Please don’t delay to tell the Lord that you are sorry and you didn’t know he loves you so perfectly and wants you back in His arms safe from the evil of the world, and not blaming God for all that He didn’t do nor did He ever want anyone of his creation to suffer or die.

    We all still have a choice that we can either give up and live in misery, or we can love others more than our own circumstances and begin changing the lives of others through that love, because that is truly the only way to make the world better for all. Be reconciled back to the Father by accepting the gift of Jesus as your substitute for punishment of all your sin, and know that Jesus paid a high price for your freedom, healing, and place with the Father.

    It isn’t about who did what or blaming anyone. It is about loving everyone, because we are all created to love and be loved.

  • A Proverb to Prevent the Path of Oppression

    Who will take to their knees the needs of millions of people around the world right now?

    When we start to live outside of our own needs and start to live with compassion for others, we can then understand Jesus and the heart of God is to love without judgement and without any personal gain in our own lives.

    Bless everyone everyday by avoiding the words that bring forth death, and speaking in agreement with God’s Words instead. God’s Word is spirit and life. When you take it in, your body, mind and spirit are being transformed to align up with the Truth which is eternal and always Right. It is light to guide your path, and it is food for your soul to bring glory to God rather than causing vain imaginations to exalt themselves in your life.

    Love others and above all, love God, because He loves you more than you can even grasp with earthly thinking. He doesn’t care how bad you screwed things up in your life, and He is ready to catch you when you realize that the picture perfect life you created without Him fails miserably and leaves you empty and alone inside.

    Trust in the Lord with all of your heart. Lean not on your own understanding; but in all your ways, acknowledge Him, and He will make your path straight. Proverbs 3:5

  • All who call on the name of Jesus will be saved

    www.bible.com/bible/59/isa.45.22-25.esv

    “”Turn to me and be saved, all the ends of the earth! For I am God, and there is no other. By myself I have sworn; from my mouth has gone out in righteousness a word that shall not return: ‘To me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear allegiance.’ “Only in the Lord, it shall be said of me, are righteousness and strength; to him shall come and be ashamed all who were incensed against him. In the Lord all the offspring of Israel shall be justified and shall glory.””

    ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭45:22-25‬ ‭ESV‬‬

  • To Live is to Die to the Old Ways

    People are given choices everyday. It is totally up to each of us to bring a better future for all or cause more suffering and misery by our lack of believing in good.

    Here are some ways that people can choose to either live for self or to live for the Lord and bring a better community for all.

    I can choose to start complaining about all that I have to get done, or I can decide to say a morning prayer before stepping out of bed, and giving my will and day into God’s hands.

    I can decide to yell and threaten my kids repeatedly to try and force them out of bed early and demand them to be ready for school, or I can pray the night before and ask that God give them sweet sleep and helps them to wake up refreshed and willing to learn and be on time for school.

    We can speak out a positive future for them with God’s Word on who they are, or we can destroy them by speaking negatively about them and their future!

    I can be stressed out and thinking about the rush hour traffic that I don’t want to hit, or I can pray and ask God to clear the path for me.

    On my way to work, I can complain and yell at cars that I think should be moving faster, slower or just out of my way, or I can see every individual driving next to me as a person with real feelings and experiences they are going through and I can pray for God to open His good treasury in Heaven and pour out blessings for all of them to be saturated in His peace and know they are loved.

    At work, I can get offended when my co-worker gets promoted for the project that I did and they just added their name to it, or I can ask the Lord to bless that person with great godly wisdom that will ensure a rewarding life and bight future.

    At lunch, I can shove a juicy cheese burger down my throat and wash it down with a strawberry milk shake from in and out burger, or I can use that money to buy ten items off the .99 cent menu at Wendy’s and hand them out to the homeless in the park near my office building.

    “So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.”

    – ‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭10:31‬ ‭ESV‬‬

    During the afternoon, I can focus on office gossip, or I can take a few minutes and begin asking the Holy Spirit what or who is in need of prayers and help in that moment.

    “But thanks be to God, who in Christ always leads us in triumphal procession, and through us spreads the fragrance of the knowledge of him everywhere.”

    – ‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭2:14‬ ‭ESV‬‬

    When a coworker comes to share negative news and current struggles at home, I can pretend to care and agree with their misery as being awful which will help them sink deeper into self-pity and despair, or I can speak words of life and truth back to them that will cause their wrong circumstances to come into alignment to what God says is Truth.

    “But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.””

    – ‭‭James‬ ‭4:6‬ ‭ESV‬‬

    When I am driving home and see police and fire trucks racing down the road, I can pull out of the way until they pass and then drive home, or I can immediately begin praying for divine intervention for whatever the need is that they will encounter. I can also pray and ask for help for others that are broken down on the side of the road, or driving recklessly.

    We can choose to be helping to change an entire generation from spiritual blindness to Kingdom living through kindness, or to be willfully blinded through disobedience to God’s word of loving and helping others.

    Giving is the best way to live. Being focused on how to get more or how to be more is the fastest route to death. That can be both spiritual and physical death. When it is about me, my plans, my dreams, my kids, my vacation, my job, my husband, my life, it is of no value to anyone else other than to cause jealousy, arrogance or greed to be exalted.

    When I am able to lay down everything and ask God to do His perfect will through my surrendered life, then I am fully satisfied with all that I need.

    God is so good. He knows what we need to have peace and a lifetime of joy, so why don’t we let Him help us to help each other become great blessings for His glory?!

    We don’t have to continue to be divided by politics, religions, race, or even age and gender. In Christ we are all one, and there is no life outside of Christ, so begin praying fervently for all people and nations to come into Christ and be saved!

    “Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer.”

    – ‭‭Romans‬ ‭12:12‬ ‭ESV‬‬

    Prayers and sharing testimonies publicly on a blog or a TikTok or you tube video, or whatever platform that will cause others to know the love of God, and turn to be saved, use them!

    Let’s spread out a net of love and righteousness that reaches across all nations and silences the evil and wickedness of exalting sickness, fear, hate, greed, lust and all negative news!!

    The prince of the airwaves can’t keep the Truth hidden if all Believers begin sharing and not being afraid or cowardly when it comes to sharing how the Lord saves and loves to be with us to make us radiant and righteous by His doing and not our own.

    “I will give thanks to the LORD with my whole heart;

    I will recount all of your wonderful deeds.”

    – ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭9:1-2‬ ‭ESV‬‬

  • To be Generous is to be Blessed

    www.bible.com/68/psa.112.1-10.gnt

    “Praise the Lord! Happy is the person who honors the Lord, who takes pleasure in obeying his commands.

    The good man’s children will be powerful in the land; his descendants will be blessed.

    His family will be wealthy and rich, and he will be prosperous forever. Light shines in the darkness for good people, for those who are merciful, kind, and just. Happy is the person who is generous with his loans, who runs his business honestly.

    A good person will never fail; he will always be remembered. He is not afraid of receiving bad news; his faith is strong, and he trusts in the Lord. He is not worried or afraid; he is certain to see his enemies defeated. He gives generously to the needy, and his kindness never fails; he will be powerful and respected. The wicked see this and are angry; they glare in hate and disappear; their hopes are gone forever.”

    ‭‭Psalm‬ ‭112:1-10‬ ‭GNT‬‬

  • Sickness and Disease? Not for Me!

    I choose to believe and put my faith in God and His living Word instead of trusting in sickness and oppression.

    Why would anyone choose the cursed life over the blessed life?

    Or have they never been told the good news and the Kingdom of God is at hand? Fear NOT!

    www.bible.com/59/exo.23.25.esv

  • We Will Not Fear Sickness

    How can we be afraid of any sickness or disease? When God has already declared our victory in Christ!

    If God be for us, who dare be against us?

    By his stripes we were healed… Isaiah 53

    I will not forget any of His benefits, He forgives ALL of my iniquity and heals ALL of my diseases…Psalms 103

    Turn to God and be saved all the ends of the earth!

    All who call on the name of the Lord will be saved!

  • Zion

    The home of the Lord our God, and all of His servants


    “For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent, and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not be quiet, until her righteousness goes forth as brightness, and her salvation as a burning torch. The nations shall see your righteousness, and all the kings your glory, and you shall be called by a new name that the mouth of the Lord will give. You shall be a crown of beauty in the hand of the Lord, and a royal diadem in the hand of your God. You shall no more be termed Forsaken, and your land shall no more be termed Desolate, but you shall be called My Delight Is in Her, and your land Married; for the Lord delights in you, and your land shall be married. For as a young man marries a young woman, so shall your sons marry you, and as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so shall your God rejoice over you. On your walls, O Jerusalem, I have set watchmen; all the day and all the night they shall never be silent. You who put the Lord in remembrance, take no rest, and give him no rest until he establishes Jerusalem and makes it a praise in the earth. The Lord has sworn by his right hand and by his mighty arm: “I will not again give your grain to be food for your enemies, and foreigners shall not drink your wine for which you have labored; but those who garner it shall eat it and praise the Lord, and those who gather it shall drink it in the courts of my sanctuary.” Go through, go through the gates; prepare the way for the people; build up, build up the highway; clear it of stones; lift up a signal over the peoples. Behold, the Lord has proclaimed to the end of the earth: Say to the daughter of Zion, “Behold, your salvation comes; behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him.” And they shall be called The Holy People, The Redeemed of the Lord; and you shall be called Sought Out, A City Not Forsaken.”

    ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭62:1-12‬ ‭ESV‬‬

    http://bible.com/59/isa.62.1-12.esv


    “”For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth, and the former things shall not be remembered or come into mind. But be glad and rejoice forever in that which I create; for behold, I create Jerusalem to be a joy, and her people to be a gladness. I will rejoice in Jerusalem and be glad in my people; no more shall be heard in it the sound of weeping and the cry of distress. No more shall there be in it an infant who lives but a few days, or an old man who does not fill out his days, for the young man shall die a hundred years old, and the sinner a hundred years old shall be accursed. They shall build houses and inhabit them; they shall plant vineyards and eat their fruit. They shall not build and another inhabit; they shall not plant and another eat; for like the days of a tree shall the days of my people be, and my chosen shall long enjoy the work of their hands. They shall not labor in vain or bear children for calamity, for they shall be the offspring of the blessed of the Lord, and their descendants with them. Before they call I will answer; while they are yet speaking I will hear. The wolf and the lamb shall graze together; the lion shall eat straw like the ox, and dust shall be the serpent’s food. They shall not hurt or destroy in all my holy mountain,” says the Lord.”

  • Jesus is Lord and King of ALL Heaven and Earth

    Everything in the Universe was established and created through words. So when people give their mouth permission to agree with sickness, poverty and evil, they perpetuate the very thing that Jesus came to expose as a work of the devil!
    There is no sickness in the Kingdom of God.
    There is also no negativity. We are showing honor to God by believing the Truth-His Word and plans as always good and the right way for a peaceful and prosperous life, that means obeying the Word of God and doing what is good by turning away from exalting evil and speaking wickedness.
    What is exalting evil look like? Highlighting every negative thing and raising the problem above the solution.
    If people put their problems on display and begin sharing them everywhere so that everyone has to hear all about what the devil has done to them, but they never consider honoring the Word of God as Truth and casting the cares to Jesus and not to social media or your family and friends that have been enjoying a perfect peace and rest in Christ, they are actually giving honor to the devil and bringing more darkness and oppression by holding onto what should have been released to Jesus immediately.

    Putting Jesus on the throne as Lord and Savior is how to live. Anything else is not life, because apart from Jesus there is no life.
    Evil backwards spells what? So when people are living and believing with a backwards understanding, they are trusting lies and fear in place of faith and Truth in their lives.

    The news stations will soon change their reporting of all negativity and begin speaking only what is able to produce life and freedom, because everything else is the ways of the kingdom of darkness and it has been plunged into total darkness, and the people of God are led by the light of Christ in them to do what is good and right. The light shone in the darkness and the darkness did not perceive it.

    Please take the time to actually read and grasp the Truth by going to the Bible and making it your ONLY source of Truth!
    I don’t care what the doctor said, if it doesn’t agree with God’s Word, it is a lie! I understand that you might have all the symptoms and the test results that say you have Cancer or kidney disease or whatever it might be that day, but the Word of God is the Truth and if you will absorb it into your being rather than all the negativity and lies of the world, then you will see healing and deliverance for your flesh and your soul! You will be filled with a peace that can’t be explained and you will have a knowing of things that others can’t know because they don’t have the Spirit of the living God inside of them. Your Spirit is sealed with God’s spirit the day you are reborn and accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior, but in order to reap the benefits of that union, people have to begin working on the relationship by wanting to understand the Word of God and reading it! Taking and breaking each verse down to fully absorb what it is actually saying and what it is meant to create in your life.
    The Word of God is a living Word! That means that it is alive and will create life when it is activated inside a person!

  • Abba, Father

    Holy Father, You have been my dearest friend, my biggest encourager, my greatest joy and delight, and there is nothing but love in your heart for me and all of your children.

    I wanted to tell so many people about You, and all the wonderful love and blessings that You are so happy to pour out for all your creation, but many people found it too difficult to believe that you are more than a character in a book.

    I made your name known to all those that you sent me to, and I shared with them the same love that you shared with me.

    I blessed the people, the places and the work that others were doing for your glory. I gave all that I was given to all that I met. There is nothing that I held back or kept from sharing with any that would hear.

    I know that many still don’t know you, but they are all awakening and love is in full bloom in our nation and spreading through every nation.

    You told me that you have been waiting for us to turn and help each other, and I am happy to report that people are giving freely of themselves in order to see better for those in need. Love is truly in bloom, and I see a great harvest ready for reaping souls that have been sown in righteous tears and heartbreak through a battle for justice and Truth to shine forth.

    I have truly watched your love come alive in the people while the problems that they once exalted have all been replaced with the praises and awesome testimonies of all that Jesus has done to save and deliver the people from darkness.

    There are so many great revelations that have come forth from all of the people visiting heaven and having visitations from heaven, as well as the fullness of your presence and Holy Spirit power exploding across the world!

    I wanted to write you this letter to let you know that I am overwhelmed with all that you have done in these last days before taking us up. I know that there is much excitement in heaven and there is here also. The people are so ready for all that you have planned for this time! We are filled with hope, faith and most of all, love! Love for you, Jesus, and each other. There is so much peace and hope in the hearts of your people, that it seems like things were always this way, but I know they were not. It has only been through your increased presence and your decision to accelerate these times that transformation has been fully underway.

    I bless you and I bless your holy name. May your glory cover the earth and your praises continually go up and fill your sanctuary!

    Let all hearts be exalting in your great love and let all wickedness shut it’s mouth! Let light shine forth through the darkness until there is only light!

    Your love is on display in every family and every individual that you have planned to receive salvation.

    We are so well pleased and delighted to be a part of these last days and to pray for all those still struggling in the lands near and far.

    I just wanted to say thank you and tell you how much I am grateful for all that you have done to protect, provide, bless, teach, dream and delight in love with me. You are the most wonderful, beautiful Father and I love you with all my heart, mind and strength. May your heart receive back the same perfect love that you have poured out to your creation.

  • Deliverance and True Freedom

    God told me that only love can destroy evil completely, and He offered me no other remedy for the severe anguish of my broken heart for the oppressed, rejected and wounded souls in such despair everywhere.

    I had heard about people battling to get demons out of people and saw a few videos and knew that it was nothing I wanted to be a part of in that manner.
    I didn’t realize that love is the solution and key to everything in the world, because God is Love and His love is enough to set people free, so when we are filled up with His love, we are of greatest value to the Kingdom of God, and the dread of the devil!

    1 Corinthians 13:4-8
    “Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth.
    Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
    Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away.”
    Because the Father has lavishly poured out His love on me, I am able to share that love with others and see them set free.
    If God had not come and spoke to me, I might not have believed that He could truly love me and want me. I only knew that He wanted to help rescue the abused kids I was praying for night and day, but when He told me that He loved me with an everlasting love and that I was His beloved daughter and He was well pleased with my life.” I could suddenly love others on a whole new level! No more judging or condemning and no shame or guilt that causes such awful despair.
    I was loved and accepted, and I was not even close to being like all the church people that I knew! So if God could love me just like I was then, He obviously wants us to love all people just like that, and not just the ones that are super stars in the church. He wants us to love the broken and addicted mother, and the homeless teen that sells themself to stay alive, or the politician that got drunk and drove home and killed a pedestrian jogging. Not only them, but the most fierce and awful person that a soldier is about to kill on a battle field too! He wants us to pray for those who hurt us and to give to those who want to steal from us. To not be angry when someone cuts us off in traffic, and to pray for the tyrant boss that makes his employees feel like dogs. Pray and bless them ALL!
    Freedom can be a song. A worship that is full of adoration for the Creator and restorer of Life which sparks the fire of a divine romance that allows a person to fully experience the perfect love of God and not be in dread or fear, but to just completely lose all their logical thinking and just be inundated in love. There is no better way to be delivered, but I am not saying it is the only way. It’s just the best and most amazing way to be set free.
    Does the enemy come and say, “God doesn’t love you like he loves those people. See how much he has given them and how happy they are?” “You are still driving that old car and all of your things were either broken or stolen!”
    That is the best test, because there is only one way to defeat evil and it is LOVE, so whatever you still have left, find someone in need quickly and give it to them! Take your car keys and give them to someone that needs a car and can never pay you back! Take the bus or walk for a few days. God will be sure that you not only get another vehicle, but He will even make sure you don’t owe anything on it! God is good and His love is lavishly poured out on His creation. If we endure the hard battles, there is great reward for our suffering!
    That is how I get free of the lies of the devil. I know the Truth and it sets me free! I can Give it all away and pour myself out for the hungry and poor, because that is what my Father does and He brings them into His family and heals their wounds. He gives them their hearts desire and teaches them how to be at peace in all circumstances and to take our eyes off of our messes and give attention to His Word.
    People want to be set free from sickness and demonic attacks, but sickness is usually a result of worry, resentment, bitterness and other wrong thoughts and emotions, so stop thinking wrong about yourself and other people and start loving like a true son and daughter of the living God. If we realize that it won’t matter if a person gets delivered from a sickness if they only plan to go back and hate people again, Jesus can provide what is needed and will keep sickness away forever and that is LOVE and insight of the Holy One.
    God is Love.

    God told me that most people who say they know Him, have never known Him. How sad is that?
    People truly think that they have to be good enough and cleaned up by themselves or other people, but ONLY the blood of Jesus is enough to wash us clean of our guilt and past. Be cleansed by believing in Jesus and forgetting what lies behind you and moving upward to what is calling you to rise and be healed in Jesus!
    Receive LOVE and become that love to others.
    Go to the extreme if the devil is harassing you! Give it all up and run to God!
    Guess what you will find?
    You made the best choice of your life!

  • Restoration and Healing

    It was about this time last year when I received a call from my friend at the Department of Child Safety. She asked me to come to the placement center to help two boys that had just become orphaned after their dad killed their mother and then shot himself.

    The boys were ages 17 and 11, and grew up in an affluent neighborhood in an upper-middle class family.

    The boys grew up in a family that didn’t go to church and never made Jesus their Lord and Savior, but the family next door to them were strong Christians and had a huge impact on the oldest boy’s life. He knew that there was a better way to live, because he had witnessed the love and divine peace of the family in the home next door to their own turmoil and confusion-filled house.

    I think people would be amazed to know how much a Christian family can impact an entire neighborhood. As believers and citizens of Heaven, we have a mission here on earth to be peacekeepers, extravagant love givers, joyful and kind to all, and prayer warriors for the lives all around us and in other nations. If people call themselves believers, there should be some fruit in their lives for the people around them to taste and see that the Lord is good. We have all experienced what religious people with wrong agendas produce in the lives around them, and it is not the sweetness of knowing Jesus, but rather the condemning and judgmental poison of vipers. I have been a partaker and a giver of both in the past, and I can honestly say that nothing good is born out of shame and blame. Love is the only tree that can produce life giving food to share and enjoy with others.

    Back to my story about the boys at DCS that day; the first thing the teen said to me after I introduced myself was, “I need to find God! I have to get to a church and know God! I know that He can help me.”

    I was taken by surprise and told him that he would definitely be able to attend church from now on, but he didn’t have to wait to get to a building to know God.

    I asked if their family had ever attended church and he said they never went one time to church as a family. His younger brother said that he had attended with friends. The oldest son was very adamant about going to stay with a christian family that would take them to church. I had no control over any of the situation with the Dept of child safety and their placements, but I knew that we could pray and God would definitely provide whatever was needed for these two young men to grow up safe, and in a home that knows His love and free gift of salvation through Jesus Christ.

    The teen shared a little about the events that night. He said he had just gone to his room after going back and forth to each parent for hours trying to find a way to stop them from splitting up that night. Mom was packing and planning to go away with a man she had met and was leaving their dad to start a new life. The dad was heartbroken and angry, but I don’t think anyone imagined he was able to kill her and himself that night. The teen said that he told them to take a little time and think about everything and he would be back in a few minutes to see if they had come to any better results for their relationship and marriage. A few minutes later the first gunshot went off.

    He said that his younger brother was asleep, and didn’t wake up until the second shot that killed dad went off. The teen wanted to protect his brother from the horrific scene that he had just witnessed, so he ran to his room and refused to let him see their parents dead. The younger boy didn’t realize what had happened but only knew that their were shots fired.

    As I talked with the teen alone I could see that he was carrying a heavy weight of guilt over the parents and sorrow for his younger brother’s loss. He had not allowed himself to fall apart or grieve because he said he had to be strong for his brother. He was very clear that they had no one else and it was his responsibility to protect his brother.

    My heart was aching for this teen and his brother, but I knew that God had already set this whole thing up long ago, so that these two boys would never be orphaned or left to carry that heavy weight of guilt and sorrow.

    I found out later that the boys had been allowed to move in with their neighbors.

    Those boys were one of three sibling groups that I would meet at the department of child safety within three months that had become orphans after a violent act of murder caused their dads to take the lives of their mothers and one even murdered the siblings too.

    My reason for sharing this story today is three fold. The first is that Christians will realize their value 24/7, and be ambassadors of reconciliation to God by representing a life of Jesus in everyday actions and words at home and outside the home.

    Secondly is that people who have never known God might realize the critical times we are in and turn and be healed and saved now so they can have hope and a future for themselves and their offspring.

    Thirdly is for people that foster and adopt or have thought about stepping up and becoming a safe home for a child in crisis through fostering children in their state. Without Christian homes for these kids that have only witnessed the worst the world has to offer, our own children that grew up in good homes will have to work twice as hard to see peaceful and safe communities, because of the violence done to the children outside of the church.

    We can see lives restored and hope and a future for every individual, but it is only through our own love from God and for God that we can mature and begin to pray and speak in agreement with God’s heart for every life to be helped and know that we are not here to please ourselves, but to follow the path of the only true and faithful servant, Jesus Christ.

  • “…I Will Save Your Children” Isaiah 49:25

    “…I Will Save Your Children” Isaiah 49:25

    It’s not an easy road for those who age out of the foster care system but some are trying to help.
    — Read on https://www.azfamily.com/video/people-who-age-out-of-foster-care-in-arizona-face/video_c24af35b-3c0b-5af0-aa18-0caa685eaa13.html

    The story is about a young man that we took into our family earlier this year after he had been homeless for three years.

    He aged out of the state foster care system and like many others had no support system and found himself alone on the streets of Phoenix.

    Jose was not the first young adult that we took into our home from the streets, but he had many more challenges to battle. After living on the streets for three years, he had to deal with legal issues, immigration issues, and drug issues, but with a lot of love and grace, we watched God transform Jose’s life into a beautiful work of redemption for His glory.

    Jose now lives with my sister and her husband, and he finished his recovery program and all of his court issues are resolved. He works full time and just got promoted into a manager position. He also plays soccer twice a week and is an amazing athlete.

    Jose is now 23, and he actively participates in helping with all of our projects to feed and love on the homeless, as well as provide gifts and goodies for the kids in state foster care. His heart is pure and his future is bright!

    The moral of the story, don’t give up on anyone that seems like they will never get it together. Instead get to praying and pouring out your heart to God for them to be healed and restored! God will do His part, so don’t neglect to do your part!

    I should add that it wasn’t an easy road for any of the people involved, but it was worth it! We failed a few times, and he did also, but God was faithful, and He did what we couldn’t do.

    Love Wins Again!

    Good news! Here is the follow up story that the news reporter was so kind to come and do an update for us on Jose.

  • Did They Know?

    Did They Know?

    There is a purpose for everything God sends us to do, and nothing is an accident or unknown by God if you walk with Him.

    If God points someone out to me on the street or in a store, it means that I am supposed to go and talk to that person. This is true for all of us, but most people ignore the nudging of the Holy Spirit and some even start judging the person that God is asking them to help, so they get afraid or talk themselves out of approaching the person.

    This is a story from the last five days that I am excited to share, because it was a very beautiful and easy rescue operation.

    I pulled up to our restaurant on Thursday evening, because I was told that there was a homeless man in need of help by several of my friends that were there. (Not sure why no one else is able to help people, but I know that God gave me grace to do it, so I just do it.)

    There was a woman sitting on the ground with two wagons full of her belongings including two tiny dogs. I asked her if she was hungry or needed anything to drink. She said a little, but I felt like I was there to do more than just feed her, so I turned my car off and went and sat on the sidewalk with her.

    I asked her if she had anyone to help her with a place to stay or any family and she tearfully replied that her dad had just passed away, and it was just her two dogs and her left for the family. I asked how long she had been on the streets, because she didn’t look dirty or like she was there long enough to lose touch with reality. She said it was day 58, and she was exhausted. The police told her that she needed to keep moving so that she wouldn’t be harassed by people that complain and call the cops when anyone looks like they might be homeless near their business or home.

    She had to walk around all day for 58 days pulling all of her stuff, because there was an error with the city and housing after her dad died, so she was forced on the streets while she waited for another place to be available. She said that she had 15 more days before she was told she could have an apartment.

    We talked for about an hour and I prayed with her and asked God to move that date from 15 days to immediately, and to provide her with whatever she needed to be safe and financially ready to move into an apartment.

    I went and bought her a sleeping bag and some warm clothes and some other items, and told her she was fine to sleep behind the restaurant like she had been doing, but I let her know that God would make a way for her to be off the streets by Monday.

    She said that she had been to every church in town asking for help with no luck, so I prayed about that, and I also prayed for her to be given a friend, so she wouldn’t be alone, because she was being harassed by the homeless men that would circle her at night. She had her sleeping bag and tent stolen and she was truly ready to give up when I showed up that night. She cried as I told her how much she was loved by her Heavenly Father and that it was His will to help her and be there for her all the time so she would never feel alone.

    She asked me the following day for help with her deposit for the apartment, because it was miraculously possible for her to move in on Monday now. 🤔🙏🏼😃

    She also received $400 from the churches when she went back for help after we prayed, so she only needed $200 more to move into a new apartment.

    This morning I brought her the $200, and she told me that a guy gave her his tent and she kinda liked him. She was grinning really big, and she pointed over to where he was. He looked super nice, and I knew that Jesus had put them together, because He wanted her to know that she can always count on Him to supply everything that she will need as she turns fully to Him now.

    She had a lady from the church offer to help her move her stuff to Mesa where the apartment was located, so she had everything she needed now, and she made me promise that I would come over and see her new place this week. She was so happy! She felt loved and like her life had value again. I gave her some books and gifts that would help her continue to seek Jesus, and she was a totally new person in three days, because I was obedient and responded to what we are all asked to do. Love God and love our neighbors. Love can be costly, just ask Jesus! But it is the ONLY thing that destroys evil, so love and help those in need right now!

  • Praying in the Spirit

    Praying in the Spirit

    This story is one that still boggles my mind, because I know it is accurate but I never imagined how powerful prayers truly are until I learned how my prayer was an actual experience for the one I was praying for healing.

    I was watching a video from a church service of a man giving a testimony about being healed of a back injury, so I called my husband in to watch it with me, because he also was suffering from a back injury.

    As the man spoke, my husband said, “Oh, I know that guy.” I quickly let him know that he was wrong and that the man was from California and there was no way he could know him. (Wives always know everything right)

    My husband asked if his name was Mike. I didn’t know, but I checked, and he was correct. He said the man was in his office a week earlier to discuss a project with one of our neighbors who also was our real estate agent at that time. Anyway, a few hours later my husband tells me that he just spoke with our real estate agent, and he told him about me watching the video of his friend. That was when he let him know that Mike had just had a serious heart attack that evening and was in the hospital. I had never met Mike, but around 4:30am, I was up praying. I emailed a woman and asked her to pray with me for the man, because she was the lady that I got the video from that had his testimony. She emailed me right back, and I was shocked to see her email pop up at 4:44am, so I sent her a response and asked why she was up at that hour. She replied, “probably because of all the stuff you are praying!” Lol. I thought it was funny, but never realized that she was actually serious.

    I was a fairly new believer at that time, and the only thing that I knew for sure about God was that He always answered my prayers, so I prayed for everything. I am not even joking about that. Everything that I could think of I prayed about and everyone that I saw or place where I went, I prayed for it all! I was a bit extreme, but my extreme praying brought about some awesome changes later.

    So it was about two years later, and I am sitting with the man that I had prayed for from the video, because I later met him and we got to be good friends. He was telling me a story about how he met Jesus and was given a chance to go to heaven or stay, because Jesus told him he was finished with what he was supposed to do, but he could return if he wanted. So Mike said that he thought he should stay a bit longer since his daughter was about to finish college. At that time, Jesus let him know that the woman that was with him would help him, because she was with Jesus to assist Mike coming back. It was crazy, but Mike was in the middle of a cardiac arrest and the hospital workers were in his room trying to bring him back, and he saw Jesus walk in the room and that was when Mike was able to choose to stay or go. Jesus, pointed to the woman and said, “she is with us and she is going to help you now.”

    At this time, Mike was staring intently at me as he was trying to recall the details of the woman. He stopped speaking and said, “She looked exactly like you!” I laughed and thought he was joking, but he went on to say how she walked to him and kissed his mouth and then touched his heart with her finger. He said that he immediately set straight up in his hospital bed and the workers were stunned by his abrupt awakening. Mike was really baffled as he was finishing the story and he looked at me again and said, I am serious that the lady could have been your twin that was there in that hospital that day with Jesus. As he said that, I had a flashback of me praying for him before I ever met him, so I asked if he by chance knew what time all of that happened. He said, “I will never forget, because when I set up in the bed, the first thing that I saw was the red numbers on the wall in front of me that displayed 4:44am.”

    I said, “Oh my God! I was praying for you at that exact time!” He didn’t realize that I was praying for him since I had not even met him then, so I told him the story and how I also could never forget the time because of the email that came through from my friend who was also awake praying at 4:44am.

    Here is the really crazy part of this story, my friend, Mike died about a week after he shared that story with me. There was no cause of death. He just fell straight forward while on a walk and was gone. He was the only person that I was able to share stories with about my encounter with God, and I was crushed by his death, but incredibly grateful for the opportunity to have known him in that short time. I truly didn’t know much about him until his funeral service and that was when I learned that he had been a theology teacher and coach at a well known catholic university before starting his own company that provided food for countries in war torn nations. He also was given the same blueprints that I received from God about a village for kids to be healed from severe traumas. We weren’t the only ones that had the vision. Several people in our group were all given the same designs. That is another story for later.

    The point to this story is to pray and know that you could literally be responsible for another living or dying because of your willingness to pray for others!

  • Eyes to See Snares of an Enemy

    It’s time to take off the masks that every single person hides behind. Some may not even realize that they are hiding or masking their pain, but I assure you that if we are not in oneness with God, we will never be free of the tormenting spirits of this world.

    Suicide is not a person being a coward, it is a person being tormented by the demonic realm to the point of being so overwhelmed that they can’t go on any longer.
    The reason the Bible is very clear about loving God, and then loving others and bearing one another’s burdens isn’t just so Christians would appear to be good people. . No, it is commanded, because Jesus knew the torment and darkness that would try to overtake us in this world if we didn’t have others helping us to see that we are never alone, and the lies that we are hearing from the demonic realm are not the Truth! They are evil spirits sent here on assignments by Satan to take out as many people as possible!
    The Bible is not a book of fairytales or science fiction nonsense. It is the Living Spirit Filled Word of God! It is full of power and purpose! If people understood that our lives are constantly under attack by a real enemy that HATES us, we would all know why it is crucial to turn to God and hide in Him.
    Even when we know God or think we know Him, it doesn’t stop the attacks from coming at us. The only way to be completely free of these attacks is by knowing and living the Word of God every single day. Speaking only the Truth (the word of God), and never coming into agreement with the demonic realm which is found in places where there is chaos, confusion, FEAR, wounded souls, division, rivalry, malice, jealousy, strife, hatred, unforgiveness, resentment, negativity, hopelessness, and every oppression that keeps people from fulfilling their God given purpose. Poverty and lack are also included in that place where evil dwells, because those are not God’s will for His children.
    Just like none of us want to see our children struggling and living on welfare or working two jobs and barely making enough to pay the rent and bills, our Heavenly Father despises lack and poverty. Lack in a person’s life is a result of a spiritual attack, or one believing that they are not supposed to have more, or they can’t see themselves as anything but poor.
    As a man thinks in his heart, so shall he be. Proverbs
    Jesus came so that we might have abundant life. The enemy comes to kill, steal and destroy, so be sure that you don’t do like the Jews did 2000 years ago when Pilot asked the crowd if they wanted him to release Jesus King of the Jews, and they shouted, Not Jesus, but Barabus! Of course he was a murderer, and instead of releasing the author of life, they chose to crucify Christ and release a murderer into their lives instead.
    We still have this option today. Do you want Jesus to rule over you, or do you choose to reject him and accept the father of lies who has been a murdered since the beginning?

    Let Christ rule in your heart and life and you will find peace and rest for your soul. The enemy can’t destroy what is out of sight and hidden in Christ. The tests and attempts might try, but you are armed with the Word of God and you have all of heaven backing you when you live a crucified life in Christ.

    His burden is light and he will not weigh you down with the things of the world.

  • He Moves in Mysterious ways

    He Moves in Mysterious ways

    The ways of God are mysterious to people that only see and understand one way of seeing and doing things, but for the one that is open and willing to do anything that God says to do, the mysteries begin to unravel and it becomes evident that God truly will do anything for LOVE.
    When He gave His only begotten Son to save the world, that was a pretty big sign that He loves His creation more than his creation has known or loved him.
    Trusting God as good and going to him for help is the key to coming into the right path for deeper relationship with Him.
    It is time to change our thinking from shallow and hollow to Shalom-whole and transformed into the new creation in Christ.
    To reveal the very depths of God’s love to the lost and afflicted is crucial now.  It is the only way to surpass the lies that have kept most in bondage and caused bitterness for too long.
    How can we know God if we never open the Bible or seek to learn about him?  We can’t.  We can pray and ask him to reveal himself and awaken us, but we can’t get a total grasp of His heart and passion for what is good and right until we know what is good and right.  The world won’t help you gain pure truth, so stop seeking it out there.  It is all distorted and eating those snacks or meals will cause sickness and suffering.  Go deep into the realms of love and truth with the wonderful guidance of the Holy Spirit.  Accept Jesus as Lord and Savior and begin to part the abyss with a passionate kiss from the lips of the greatest Lover!
    I am not oppressed or depressed!  I am full of faith and God’s great mercy and grace have caused me to be seated in Christ in heavenly places far above all rule and authority.
    I am a child of God!
    I am an anointed, trained, ignited, fire of God’s Holy power and love which is perfect and able to cleanse all unrighteousness.
    Because God is Love and is the only Creator of life, He is the highest authority in all the universe.  In the seen and unseen realms, Jesus Christ is the Son of God, the first of many who will reign as kings upon the earth.  That was 2000 years ago when he was taken up into heaven after being raised out of the depths of the earth by the power given to him by God’s Holy Spirit.
    God gave him permission to come out of hell after he gave up his life as a sacrificial offering that would make many righteous through his sanctification and justification by fulfilling the legal requirements set in the law of the Jews.
    Jesus is the light of the world.  He is the way for all men to be reconciled back to the Heavenly Father.  He declared to the people that he is the way, the truth and the life.  Meaning God’s Word is the Truth, the Way and Life!
    The Word of God is more valuable than anything you could ever receive from the world.  It is pure truth, without hypocrisy, without wavering, without changing, without error and always of value to every person for every generation that has been or ever will be on the face of the earth.
    The Word is a reflection of who God is and how God works.  There are many stories of people that were
    -great warriors for God
    -friends of God
    -faithfully devoted to praying to God
    -generous to God
    -grateful hearts full of praise and worship to God
    -skeptics of God
    -Evil and wicked rulers that went after power, greed and lust rather than love and God’s heart
    -desperate people seeking help to gain a child, a husband, love, wisdom, guidance, wealth, a place to honor God, a home without violence and persecution, a way to help others, understanding to lead others in a better path, healing for themselves, healing for their nation or people…
    Ultimately the Bible is a book of Love and Guidance for today and all generations to come together for the greater good of humanity to thrive without evil and wicked plans or words that cause destruction and death to the people and their nations.
    The love of God is found in every story and every struggle.  The heart of God is revealed by every answered prayer and every silence that was given.
    When people rejected God over and over from ruling over them, they were only creating more harm for themselves and their children and communities.
    God’s will is always to help any in need, and to see all that are willing to be saved and blessed by His goodness.
    God knew before the foundations of the world who it was that would believe and be saved by his grace through Jesus Christ sacrificial offering, but God still gives everyone the opportunity to come back to him.
    There are ways that God is able to help us keep our hearts tender and pure.  Sometimes these ways seem bad or evil to people without understanding, but God knows what is in each of our hearts and the depths of his understanding is unsearchable to the earthly mind.  He lives in his people and he works through them to help ensure they are not destroyed but are able to do the works he created them to do.  In Christ all of God’s children will glory and bring honor and wealth into God’s house for the children to be fed with the food the gives eternal life and clothed with garments that will never wear out.
    God’s house is filled with many rooms for all of the sons and daughters to live in peace and experience the joy and fullness of his salvation.
    Jesus gives everyone the opportunity to become sons and daughters.  Do all become sons and daughters?  Obviously not, because many fall away and allow the heart to become darkened by rejecting the things of God, love, kindness, faithfulness, mercy, compassion- the seeds of the Word of God planted and watered in the heart.  The Word is a seed that will grow when planted in a heart that is willing and eagerly seeking good.  When the word of God is planted and watered by doing and understanding what that Word is truly purposed to do, it will yield a harvest.  It will continue to grow as often as the person is willing to plant more seeds in their heart.   When a person seeks God daily, they will find Him.  When a person seeks to be a pastor or leader of a church but God never chose that person to do the work, the people who have understanding should begin to pray for what is needed to help that person thrive and fulfill the work of a church pastor, because the people will suffer if they are taught by a leader that doesn’t know or have experiential knowledge of God.
    God once told me that many people that say they know him, have never known him.  I thought that was strange, but realized shortly after that it was sadly true.
    I began to pray for people to know him and for people to be awakened to His great love for them and all those afflicted and suffering.  I believe that we are all called to pray for ALL people and ALL nations as God shows and leads us to do each day.
    How to pray:
    Praying shouldn’t be a rehearsed script, but everyone should begin with the Lord’s Prayer from the book of ———-
    Our Father…..
    Although it is a bit religious feeling to speak it, the Word of God is always the best prayers and the words that the Angels respond.  God’s voice coming out of your mouth is when you are speaking spirit life words that came from God.
    Are you willing to let go of your plans and all the ways of thinking that you were taught by the world? It’s not hard to see God’s hand at work or to hear His voice. It only requires that you believe He is good and wants to always help and do good.
    Start blessing others with your words and prayers for good for them, and you will soon see good. Don’t focus on yourself, but seek God and you will know Love and how to give all to help others.
    Father, I pray that all who read this post will be filled with hope and coveted in your peace. Open their hearts to receive all that you have for them, and bless them with a deep hunger for more of your Truth. Help them to believe in only good and to trust in your Word and not the wrong systems of the world. I pray in Jesus Name that all be healed of any sickness and disease as they read this, and I take authority over those unclean and demonic spirits in the name of Jesus, and I drive the power of darkness out of the lives of each person reading these words. I declare healing and restoration over each individual and I bless each of them with the gift of faith that I release to impart to any to receive and all that you have given to me. No evil will receive and all wickedness will shut its mouth now in the name of the Lord Jesus.
    🙏🏼 Amen

  • A Good God

    God is always good. He loves you with a perfect love and once you know the truth, you will never need to fear or be worried again. The Truth sets you free!!! Jesus -.the Word of God is our Truth, Life and the Way. And what a Way! Love and blessings with joy unspeakable! If you know religion but that dried up the true springs of life Jesus, dump that mind set and exchange it for the love and drink of the new wine!

    Have you not heard? God is doing a new thing!

    Don’t miss out on the good that comes from belonging to Jesus. This world will steal everything you have, but no one can take the Truth if you cherish and hold it fast and good in your heart. Jesus is the answer to every single issue in this life and world! If you don’t know him and are still seeking solutions elsewhere, give up and jump in the flowing river of life and be satisfied. Delight in what is good.

  • Why Are You Here?

    I found this note on my iPad from November 2018. I know that it requires a heart of compassion and hope in order to see a people set free from the bondage of corruption and the spirits of deception in the world, but are the compassionate people still fueled with God or are they filling up on the world too much to truly understand the message of the Gospel (Good News)?

    It doesn’t have to be so complicated. We are all called to Love and to be loved. We don’t need to get filled up on love from any other source than God, but we do need to pour out His love everywhere we go.

    As a “believer”, I was surprised to learn how many people really didn’t believe that God was good and always speaking words of encouragement and love to His children. God is not only good to ALL, He is also Lord over ALL things in heaven and on the earth, so stop worrying and trust God.

    Do good and help others. Not because you are being forced, but because you understand that love is the only thing that destroys evil completely. How will the people know if we don’t show them? How will the afflicted escape the deception if they have never known that God is for them and it is the negativity that keeps causing them to stay afflicted?

  • How Sweet it is to be Loved by You

    When Jesus said that he could only do what he saw the Father doing, what was he doing?
    Healing the sick, setting those bound by oppression free, loving the least of them and stopping to listen and do whatever the people asked of him. If they needed healing of blindness. he healed it. If there child or servant was sick, he went and healed them (even the Leaders that hated him whose children were dead, he raised them from the dead)
    ALL that called out to him for help, he turned and helped them. When the woman caught in the act of adultery was brought before him, and the people wanted to stone her to death, Jesus didn’t agree or chastise the woman or the men wanting to stone her, instead he said, “Let the one who is without sin be the first to cast a stone”. Starting with the oldest, the men began walking away. Jesus stood up and asked the woman if no one had condemned her, and she said, “No one, Lord”. He said, “Neither do I condemn you, now go and sin no more.” John 8
    He knows the weakness of the flesh, and he knows the temptations to blame and shame others, because it is nothing new. Blaming others has been the way of man since the garden of Eden, but Jesus came to teach man a better way to live and think. He wanted us to understand that forgiveness and mercy bring people out of bondage and keeps the enemy from causing more destruction in the world.

    We are not naive to the ways of the devil. He has been using the same tactics since the beginning. He has no creativity or good in him, so everything he does is a fake/copy that is meant to harm the people and not help them. He is a liar and has been lying since the beginning. Everything he does is a lie. There is no truth in him. He wants to kill, steal and destroy, but Jesus came that we might have life more abundantly. Choose God and believe and accept only what is good. If you are willing to accept sickness (evil), and you believe that you are supposed to be poor (evil),
    and that hating (evil) anyone who is gay or not yet a believer is what God wants you to have/believe, you have been deceived.

    God forgives all and shows mercy to all. He helps all that ask, and He does whatever it is that we ask Him to do for us.
    He accepts all people, and He loves without restrictions or criteria or qualifications.
    He is Love, and we are all loved whether we know it or believe it, It doesn’t change the truth of His everlasting love that is waiting to be poured out to all who ask for His help and turn to Him and find the peace and love that this world can’t ever compete with or make up for with anything it has to offer.

    If all people would truly turn to God and not just what they read or hear about God, but understand that God is a real person that longs to be known by His creation and be close with each and every one of us, there would be nothing but love, hope and faith remaining in this earth.
    Love being the greatest of the three!

    I know that people have their differences, and they want to get revenge or paid back for the wrongs they have suffered, but hate only brings more darkness and evil into the world.
    I know that many have been deprived of a family or have grown up without love and many suffered terrible crimes of abuse, rape, and so much more, but there is nothing that can ever stop the evil cycles and break the chains of those traumas like the perfect love of the Father God.
    Fear is what causes most of the issues that we all see and worry about everyday in this world, but in perfect love that fear is all washed away. God’s relentless mercy and incorruptible love for us is stronger than all the lies and shame, guilt,sorrow and grief that anyone has ever incurred.
    How do I know this? I have walked through just about every struggle and fallen short in every area and messed up more times than I could ever remember, but through it ALL, God never gave up or turned away. With every sin, and every sorrow, He was with me and His arms wrapped around me when there was nothing that could ease my pain. He just held me and lifted up my face to wipe my streaming tears away. He didn’t want to see me struggle, and He didn’t want to force me to do things another way. He knew my mistakes, and He knew my shame. He wanted me to give it all to Him each and every day. As soon as I would release those things, He would pour out blessings that I was then able to receive without the enemy stealing them away.

  • Reach Out Your Hand to Pull Another into the Light

    After laying down my plans and dreams to take on a role of Christ living, I found my heart aching day and night. I discovered that all of the plans and busyness of this world was hollow and empty for those on the other side.
    The other side of the light: The people in great darkness who walk in ways that are not good or right. They don’t believe in good for themselves or for the world around them. They stumble around hiding out in caves of destruction and swimming in seas of deception. They are not people that are stupid or cruel, they are merely people that have been victims of an ugly darkness in the world. These people are oppressed in every way. They are trapped in addictions, sickness and a constant torment of the things from their past.
    They have been targeted by evil as a game or plan to destroy the rest of the people. With anguish and despair as the daily food for the souls, they can’t escape the rough places where venomous snakes attack and lay hold. When they try to escape the pits their feet have fallen into, the net of envy and bitterness entangle them in sin. It is a torturous road that holds no hope in the eyes of man, but through the eyes of LOVE, Light is able to pour in.
    It is never easy to escape a web of deception that an enemy has laid, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother and that friend already paved a road to freedom for all this day! Jesus Christ gave up his life and his earthly gain in order to create a hope for every person that lives this day.
    When things are unclear and there is no sign of hope drawing near, it is necessary to put your faith and trust in one that you don’t yet know, but it has been written that he will rescue you from destruction and repair and restore your worn soul. He offers a new life that is born of the Spirit of God and free from the traps and pitfalls of this world. That sounds wonderful for most, but when life has only shown someone the worst, it becomes harder to see or imagine anything that will ever be beautiful and good in the midst of confusion and fear.
    I read a scripture today that said those who forsake God will be lost in confusion and frustration. It broke my heart to hear that, because that would be so unfair to the people that did nothing but struggle and try to find anything to escape the terror.
    I then remembered some other scripture that I read recently that God said he would do certain things in order to ensure that the people and their children would no longer be destroyed. It said that He would lead them in paths that their feet had not known and take them from places they once called their homes.

  • The Children of God

    The Children of God

    The ultimate submission to God’s Will is where you die so that you can live in Him and He in you.

    He has filled you so full of His spirit that there is nothing left that you can do but go where He takes you and do what He is doing, because it isn’t your will, but His that is in control now.

    Go up higher and soar without being trapped by the chaos and vanity of the churches being pitted against each other and the people fighting over who will get the praise.

    Jesus gets it ALL! Or have you never read the final chapter of the Revelation for the churches in the Holy Bible?

    They all cast their crowns to the King because it is his awesome love and power that lifts us all higher and fills us with Holy fire to light up the city and bring out the captives to be redeemed by Him.

    Turn and help others escape the destruction of the world by running into the arms of LOVE!

    Forgiveness and mercy are waiting for every repentant heart! Trust God and believe in Jesus Christ!

    His BLOOD was enough to make you whole and clean forever more. Stop trusting in oppression and start declaring restoration, resurrection or rapture, but avoid all condemning and negativity.

    Love and be loved. It’s just that simple!

  • Prayers Part 2

    Prayers Part 2

    The second time I remember praying was when my marriage was struggling and it seemed like things were coming to an end. I prayed in my head and asked for God to forgive me and help save my marriage and family.

    About a month later, I was running to the bathroom to throw up, and I immediately thought “what is going on! It is like I am pregnant…”

    A light bulb dinged or a flashback moment went through my mind of me praying for God to help my marriage. I knew that I knew in that moment that He had given me a baby to fix it.

    I was not happy and neither was my husband. We were in a huge argument that morning and it was definitely looking like things were not going to last much longer. My best friend made my husband go buy a pregnancy test even though he thought it was a joke or a way to just stop us from fighting.

    Then the PG test came back positive, and suddenly everything was different. I wasn’t a very happy pregnant wife, and it had to be the grace of God covering my husband, because no one normal would have been able to put up with me at that time!

    Eight months later, I was on the couch eating a bowl of cereal, and I thought in my head, “I wonder what it will feel like to go into labor”, because both of my boys were induced labors. As soon as I had that thought it was like a powerful force just punched me with a massive head butt! It was excruciating pain, and I had to get to the hospital before the babysitter could even get to our house from a mile away.

    Our beautiful daughter was born on March 14, 2007. She arrived three weeks early and she came so fast that the doctor barely made it! They were racing me down the hallway to get me to the delivery, and then telling me “whatever you do, don’t push!” The nurse had checked me and said that she had never seen anything like it. The baby had pushed so hard that she pushed right past the cervix which wasn’t ready for the birth yet.

    When she was born they tried to weigh her, but the scales were broken. They ended up putting the wrong weight down and it was a big mess when they couldn’t verify her weight so we could leave the hospital. We had to go to the doctor every two days to make sure she was okay because her weight was so off when we wanted to leave the hospital.

    We named her Grace Elizabeth and I never knew why that name was the only one that I would even consider naming her, but God told me a few years ago that He had named her and that she is a reminder of His great grace towards me. The fact that she arrived unexpectedly really early and then no one ever knew how much she actually weighed, were all part of God’s doing. He wanted me to see how his grace burst onto the scene when no one is expecting it, and no one can ever measure how great his grace truly is!

    I didn’t mention that when I prayed for help, I had been going gambling every night, drinking and totally out of control. My marriage was failing because I was causing it, but God saved me with His amazing grace and that is a literal statement, because if it hadn’t been for our daughter Grace, my life would be completely different and not in a good way!!

  • My Prayer Journey Part 1

    The first time that I remember praying as an adult was when my dad was going into brain surgery at Barrow Neurological Institute in Phoenix, AZ. The doctors were without confidence about the surgery, and we were told that they had no idea what would happen once they opened him up. They had never seen anything like the aneurysm that was on the back of my dad’s brain. They had to call the head of the institute home early from vacation to perform the surgery, but even the doctor that we were told people referred to as “god” by many, wasn’t confident that my dad would make it through the surgery.

    I had never seen my dad so terrified as he was in the room before the surgery. He didn’t know if he was coming through this, and he was shaking and completely somber. He thought it was over.

    Ironically, that thought never crossed my mind. I knew he would be fine, but that was a bit worrisome to see him so terrified. He asked my sisters and I to pray for him, and we did just that. I remember sitting on the floor at the end of a long drab hallway praying. I don’t know what I said, and I never thought it would be what actually saved my dad’s life that day, but almost twenty years later, I know it was.

    After the surgery, the head of the institute, aka “god” came walking down the hallway to talk to my sisters and I. As he was walking towards us he seemed baffled and was in a state of awe over what had just happened in the operating room.

    We eagerly asked if he was okay, and Dr Robert Spetzler shook his head and said, “yeah…yeah…he is going to be okay.” As he said it, he seemed really shocked.

    I never got to ask the doctor what happened in the room that day, but now that I know God, I don’t need to question anyone, because I know it was our prayers that were answered.

    I never even thanked God after that, because it never occurred to me that God was the One that saved him that day.

    Thank you Father for your compassion and faithfulness to answer prayers!

  • All Glory to The King!

    “And you will say in that day: “Give thanks to the Lord, call upon his name, make known his deeds among the peoples, proclaim that his name is exalted.

    “Sing praises to the Lord, for he has done gloriously; let this be made known in all the earth. Shout, and sing for joy, O inhabitant of Zion, for great in your midst is the Holy One of Israel.””

    ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭12:4-6‬ ‭ESV‬‬

    God is so good! He can’t be hidden in the shadows of deception. He is the light of the world that brings revelation.

    We love you Lord! Thank you for making us your own private possession. Your love is so tender and your words are healing and cleansing. Thank you for giving us the gift of life and peace when you died to set us free.

  • “Who Should We Send?” He sent all of us!

    One night I was exhausted and had poured myself out all day and night to the afflicted around the Phoenix Valley, and I just wanted to go home, but I had to stop for gas.
    As I was pumping the gas, I could feel my body being turned towards the gas station entrance, and I was forced to look at a young couple sitting on the ground outside the gas station. (I say forced to look at, because God’s Holy Spirit had pulled my body and eyes to look and take notice when I just wanted to be blind and going home).
    The young couple needed help, but I didn’t think I had anything left to give financially or physically. I tried to ignore the tugging on my body, but it was a tugging that was more persistent than ever before in the past, so I got my gas and pulled up to the front of the store to see how I could help them.
    As I sat on the ground with them and began talking, I learned that they were both from the foster care system as many of the people on the streets that I help are. They had a baby that was in state custody, because they were homeless. They needed help, so they could get their baby back, but neither of their families cared or were willing to help them, so they were forced to beg on the streets.
    They were working out a plan to get on their feet, but they couldn’t seem to get that little boost they needed to break free from the oppression of poverty and a victimized past.
    I prayed with them and told them to keep asking and praying, because God would provide everything they would need if they only asked Him. As I was talking a man came over that looked like he would never stop and help anyone, but he told the guy to come in the store with him and pick out some food and whatever they needed and he would pay for it. It was funny, because the guy really wasn’t even that nice about it, but it was obvious that God was forcing him to help the young couple also.
    As they were shopping, I was sharing God’s love with the broken girl that was ready to give up after losing her baby and spending her life in foster care suffering trauma after trauma. She didn’t want her child to have her same fate. I asked what they needed to get a motel room for the night and they said $40, or something like that, but I only had $42 left after going around helping people all day, and I hadn’t eaten all day. I was planning to get some food on the way home, and I needed to keep one of the 20’s, so I gave them $22, and told them God would provide the rest.
    Well He did, but it wasn’t how I thought. As I walked to my car, another person approached me and asked me for a dollar to get gas. I explained that I gave my last few dollars to the couple on the sidewalk, but I could run my credit card for him to get some gas. He said no, and walked away really sad.
    Of course, it broke my heart to see anyone in need and not have help, so I pulled out my last 20, and told the guy on the sidewalk that I found another twenty that I would give to him if he would take the two dollars that I gave him and give it to the man at the gas pump. He was happy to do it, because that meant he would now have the $40 that he needed for the motel room.
    I watched him give the two dollars to the man, and I saw a person getting gas reach into his wallet and pulled out enough money to cover the rest of the man’s need for gas.
    This was over a year ago, and I really can’t recall all of the details, but I remember leaving the gas station happy and annoyed. I was so hungry and tired, and I was complaining half the way home to God, but God never said a word.
    I couldn’t understand in the moment what God was doing. All I could see was how my bank account was empty and I had to give the last of my money away to strangers when I was starved and exhausted, so they could eat and get a motel room.
    Did I really starve that night? No, I went to in and out burger and used my credit card for food. I thought how could God want me to rack up my credit cards all the time so other people could be blessed and I would have to suffer. I didn’t realize at the time that less than a year later all of my credit cards and tax debt would all be paid in full. More than $65,000 that seemed to never be going down as I made the minimum payments each month, but God had a better plan. I am so grateful that I didn’t believe all of the people that said God would never allow me to go into debt to help others. They were all wrong. God will do whatever God wants to do, and we are to be obedient even when it hurts, and we can’t understand why. I promise that it is ALWAYS worth it!!
    Everyone that helped that night at the gas station, reluctant as we all may have been, I know God blessed.
    God is good all the time, and he wants us to be more like Him, and give all that we have to bless others. It is in doing that, that He greatly blesses us. There is truly no greater joy than to know that you have helped another life find hope and know love. Even when it costs all that you have to help, give it all! Time, money, encouragement, prayers, and any gifts that you may have to bless others, use and give freely.

  • Praise and Give Thanks in ALL Circumstances…

    No matter how bad things look, lift your hands and praise the True God and watch those problems melt like butter!

    He makes everything better and He is making all things new.

  • It Is Time To Arise

    Do you know that God is waiting on us to turn and help the weak and the lost? He told me that as soon as His people turn and help others, He will take us up.
    God is good! He is Love itself! There is nothing better anywhere!
    I share that, because it is crucial for people to understand that it doesn’t matter who you are, or what you did in the past, God is so good that He is waiting with arms wide open to welcome you home! You are reconciled back to the Father only through Jesus Christ. You have to accept Jesus as your Lord, and let Him lead you. He is able to remove all of those evils that once filled your thoughts and surrounded you.
    As for those already in Christ, it is our responsibility to tell those in darkness the Truth, and to pray for all people and nations. God doesn’t want any to perish, but for ALL to be saved! Jesus is the Truth, The life and the ONLY Way to be saved from the path of destruction and evil. Evil is anything that opposes God, and exalts itself above the Word of God.
    Scripture says that by the stripes of Jesus we were all healed! So don’t trust oppression. But trust in God as your Truth! Scripture says that “in Christ, all of God’s promises find their Yes! And Amen!” So believe the Truth and don’t just be saved, but live an abundant life by asking for what you need. God wants his people filled with joy and blessings! Don’t believe that it is God’s will for you to be poor and in constant misery, but don’t think that being poor or rich in money will ever determine your ability to have joy and peace. Only Jesus is able to keep you in perfect peace and God will lead and teach you how to prosper. Trust in God just like is written on our currency! Don’t trust in money or your own abilities! I am not a preacher or a religious nut. I am a woman that was rescued from the evil that came from all of my bad choices, and a family bloodline that was tainted with sickness and other oppression, but Jesus gave me a new family bloodline. His own blood makes me pure and clean. It is not my own doing. If my life looks good it means that God has done that. So I am filled with love and compassion for others, because I have received those things and I am an ambassador for Christ to help lead others to reach the fullness of God in them.

  • Are You Called to be a Crusader of Love?

    Are You Called to be a Crusader of Love?

    If you feel like God has called you to go deeper, and become a light in a world of darkness to help rescue the lost and hurting lives, you can start now.

    This is a journey to do what Jesus did and become the disciples that share the truth by going into areas that need hope, prayer and love to begin to thrive and have abundant life.
    We will meet and set up a plan of action and split up into groups of two that go out into the streets to heal the sick, cast out demons, feed the hungry, pray for everyone, bless neighborhoods and people, share the message of truth through personal testimonies with people in need of hope and healing. There are hundreds of people on the streets of Phoenix and surrounding cities each night that can be found sleeping on bus benches, the ground and the sidewalks, and they need to know that this world might have rejected and oppressed them, but God has created them for a greater purpose and each life is of vital importance to God’s purpose and plan. We are going to bring hope to the hopeless, and open the eyes of the blind by sharing the truth. Not the watered down or condemnation version of the truth, but the absolute truth of God’s great love that says He will never leave us, nor forsake us, and that His love is an everlasting love that we can’t stop by our bad choices or broken past. His love is what we need to destroy the evil and stop the lies of this world.
    We will do all that we saw Jesus did. The Holy Spirit will direct our steps and lead us to the people who need our help.
    If you are able to trust God to provide and protect you as you step out in faith to answer his calling, then you should join this journey to destroy evil through love.

  • Mocking Spirit

    This story is so bizarre that I couldn’t make it up if I tried.

    I was in excruciating pain from what appeared to be an issue with one of my back teeth. The tooth in question was covered in a crown that was placed on it three to five years earlier.

    When I arrived at the dentist office I was seated in the chair and had my eyes closed while they took x-rays of my mouth. The moment that I closed my eyes, I saw a flash of an image that looked like some weird monster characters that you see on products for kids. It was odd and I opened my eyes and asked God what on earth was He trying to show me. I didn’t get an answer, but I had to take another x-ray and when I did, I saw that same image flash in my mind of the little creatures. I was excited to find out what was going on with these images, but I quickly forgot about them as the appointment went from painless x-rays to a fierce extraction of a crown.

    The dentist worked for what seemed like thirty to forty minutes pulling and tugging and twisting trying to take the crown off of the tooth. He was getting frustrated and had broke two of his dental instruments so far on this one tooth that refused to let go.

    As he asked his assistant to retrieve yet a third tool that he could use, he said, “This is crazy! It is almost like this tooth is mocking me!” He went on to say how much effort and the ways he had been trying to pull the crown off of it that were all unsuccessful. As soon as he said the tooth was mocking him, I instantly saw that image in my thoughts again and it just clicked that it was a mocking spirit that was responsible for my misery under that crown.

    As the assistant returned with the new tool, I closed my eyes and in my head said, “In the name of Jesus, I take authority over you mocking spirits-GO NOW!”

    I truly wish I had a video recording of what was happening in the natural, because the dentist sort of made a shrieking sound like he was startled and he began laughing with the assistant as they were amazed at what they just witnessed. He then began sharing with me how he hadn’t even touched the tooth yet, and it was like the crown just jumped into the tool. He said to the assistant, “Did you see that?!” She replied, “I did! That was crazy!” As they laughed and finished the procedure I thought over what had just happened and whether or not I should take the risk of sounding crazy and tell them what had happened from the spiritual side of the ordeal. I could hardly believe it and I have seen many supernatural things and witnessed many miracles, so I chose to not share my side of the experience with the dentist that day.

    I was able to share with him how much good he could do by helping at a local boys group home in Queen Creek that houses hundreds of teens in state foster care. He agreed to search more into that, and when I went back for my next visit he was no longer working for that office.

    I still don’t know the full extent of what or why these mocking spirits attack, but my daughter is dealing with an ear infection that was finally healed and now the other ear is hurting her. I have a sense that I am recalling this story today for her benefit. When something keeps coming back that should not be an issue, and has no reason to be causing suffering, I dare you to consider this as an opportunity to take authority over these mocking things and boldly tell them to be gone in the name of Jesus!

    No one has to know about what they look like, but they sort of resemble the photo below. I told you that I couldn’t make this up if I tried!

    We are a new creature in Christ, and we don’t have to live with the monsters anymore! We are now seated in heavenly places and have access to all the tools we need to thrive.

  • Pray Bigger and BELIEVE

    Pray Bigger and BELIEVE

    When I was caring for the little ones at the department of child safety in late 2015, I became a beloved daughter of God that was well pleasing to Him. I’m not saying what I felt like, I am repeating what He said to me. I felt like a failure that never got anything right.

    I would leave every night sobbing the whole way home from the placement center where the kids were taken while waiting for foster homes to take them. I was filling up God’s bowl with all of my prayers asking for divine intervention in the lives of every child that I would meet. I truly had no idea how valuable those tears and prayers would turn out to be for the 20,000 children in state foster care then.

    It wasn’t long before God proved totally faithful and began answering every single one of my prayers. He would even use the exact words I prayed and speak them to someone else that He was calling in to fulfill a prayer.

    For example, a volunteer was signing out to leave one day, and the lady at the desk asked her why she chose to volunteer at the placement center. The lady smiled and said, “You wouldn’t believe me if I told you.” I was walking by and heard this, and quickly turned around and said, “I will believe you!” So the lady began explaining how she saw the news story about the center opening, and she heard the Holy Spirit tell her to go and apply to help care for the kids, because she was needed to bring the light of love to the children that may never have another opportunity to receive that light otherwise.

    I don’t recall the exact words now, but as she spoke them, I smiled really big, and said, “I know you are telling the truth, because you just repeated the exact words that I prayed to God asking him to send help for these kids.” The lady was pleased to hear that she wasn’t the only one that had faith and obeyed God’s voice. The receptionist was flipping out and had goosebumps. It was that day when I realized that we weren’t there just to help the kids, but we were there to transform a government agency to believe and trust in God for help.

    People hate to hear about God until they actually experience His love and faithfulness to help ALL who call on Him and believe in His unfailing love to rescue and restore.

    Now I am called in to pray for the kids that have been through horrific trauma such as witnessing a parent murder the other, and the staff are so grateful to have the peace that was never available before we (Childhelp founders and a few other believers ) invaded the chaos with perfect love in 2015.

    The agency had reached an all time high with almost 21,000 kids in state care and over 17,000 cases on backlog at the beginning of 2016, but God actually came and spoke to me in March 2016, and told me that it was enough. He was watching what was happening and seeing how the evil was crippling the efforts being made to help these children, and He told me that He was arousing Himself and coming out to fight for my cause. He said that I should take a rest, because He had other work for me to do later.

    As of March 2016, the numbers of kids in state care for the first time in over seven years decreased. That was the start of a massive shift that caused the leaders to gain public recognition for their amazing turn around of an agency that had formerly been considered one of the worst messes in the nation.

    There are less than 12,000 kids in state care now and no backlogged cases or any other hidden scandalous things. There are community partnerships now in place and people focused on doing what is right and not creating more trauma or blame.

    God is so good!

    No one believed what God was going to do or what I was praying for, because they had never known God.

    God moved massive mountains in my state through one broken-hearted woman who had nothing to gain and had been rejected by all after giving all to help.

    It wasn’t that the people didn’t like me or know that I was deeply passionate about seeing children helped. They were being deceived and believing that they shouldn’t allow anyone to mention God or Jesus, because it could offend people, and cause more problems for them.

    I didn’t work for anyone, but helped and prayed for everyone, because I was sent by God to transform the hearts of the people by showing them what love really looks like in faith. They simply didn’t understand how much God wants to help and how much He will do to turn the mess and chaos into a glorious testimony of His deep love for His children.

    Believe in God and His Word. Pray for everyone, and especially those who hurt you. That is how people change, but forcing people to do or believe in a man made religion is not the way it works.

    The only reason that I was able to do any of that stuff was because of Jesus Christ who was fully in me as I had been transformed by reading the scriptures that year and getting baptized in the Holy Spirit on Jan 1, 2015.

    We can do nothing without Jesus, so get Jesus and get to work in your community!

  • A Harvest of Righteousness

    A Harvest of Righteousness

    When we plant seeds of hope, faith and love, a harvest of righteousness grows.

    When we plant fear, doubt and unbelief, we see doom and gloom polluting the planet. When we make a conscious effort to think and speak positively, those negative weeds get plucked out of our garden and life begins to take bloom again. It won’t be long before you lift your head and begin seeing only good. Make a choice to focus on the good only.

    Release your past hurts and forgive all those that hurt you.

    People that refuse to look for the good, will eventually only see bad. God is good. His thoughts and ways are all good towards you. Believe that you are dearly loved and you are hear to share love with any in need. Give all of yourself for good and soon there will be nothing left of self-pity or your sufferings, because God will become your source for everything, and He is all good!

    Give and it will be given to you.

    If you are only focused on what you can get in life, you missed the whole point and will be very sad at the end of your life.

    When people ask me to help, I help. When people take advantage of me, treat me poorly or make fun of me for doing and believing in only good, it is a blessing, and I am happy to be mocked and mistreated, because I know that my reward is great in heaven.

    This earth will soon pass away, and all that fills it will be gone too, but the Word of the Lord remains forever, and that Word is Jesus Christ! If you are not in Christ, how can you live? You can’t. Don’t be a fool. Seek to find the good now while it can still be found.

    I can love, because He first loved me. I can do all things and have an abundance for every good work, because I am in Christ and everything I need is given to me. I ask and I receive. I seek and I find. I knock and it is open to me. The knowledge of God taught by man is not what I am seeking. I seek with my heart to find the One who created and loves me. If I just want to know about Him, I can sit in church services and hear preachers tell me what they know, but when I truly want to know God, I seek Him on my own to know Him for myself. Experiential knowledge is eternal life.

    Experience what is real and will never die, and you will discover life in its fullness!

  • MIRACLES & MORE MIRACLES

    Last week a friend of mine was in terrible distress over her brother being in a coma and not knowing how things would turn out. I asked if I could visit him and pray for him, and she said yes.

    I did and nothing seemed to change. The doctors wanted to discuss taking him off life support. When I heard that I cried out to God and said, “No! It is written that these signs will follow those that believe; they will lay hands on the sick and they will recover….”

    I prayed and asked God to make him open his eyes when the sister arrived at the hospital so they would have hope and not be in despair. That is exactly what happened, but he still wasn’t talking or moving. Less than a week later he is ready to leave the hospital. Talking and doing great!

    Don’t believe that there is no hope! Jesus Christ is our hope and our life source!

  • Joy

    When the world tries to stop what God has already promised will happen, just laugh and know that God always wins and evil is destroyed with perfect love!

    God will be exalted in the earth and all the nations.

    The children of God will all be praising and singing with shouts of joy and laughter filling the air!

    God’s AMAZING GRACE AND STEADFAST LOVE ENDURES

  • Broken for Love

    A heart that is full of mercy and compassion for others is a heart that is broken for God’s purposes in the earth. While we are filled with an aching inside for those that are suffering, we begin to cry out to God for help to see them rescued and restored. God isn’t mad that we don’t know how to fix the issues that they are fighting inside, He wants us to pray for them to be free and full of His love.

    Don’t doubt the power working while a righteous person is praying. God hears the prayers and many have Angels that are waiting to answer prayers, but they are getting bored when there are no prayers going up, so don’t slow down on prayers! Keep the Angels busy! They are here to help.

    Jesus paid a high price for the lost and the sinner, so don’t ignore them right now! Help them! Help doesn’t require a sermon and a beating with the Bible. The Word of God shouldn’t be painful or used to condemn anyone. Jesus walked is the same path that leads us to the Father and is the one that we should all be walking on now. That path leads upward and is filled with good works, encouragement and comforting support for the people inside the church and wherever God leads you to rescue others from the fire.

    It’s a season to be merry and bright, so let your light shine before others so they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in Heaven. Matthew 5:16

    Tell people what Jesus has done for you! Share your testimony and see others saved through that story. God gave you a testimony, so you would overcome this world through the blood of Jesus and your testimony.

    Not everyone who says to me Lord, Lord will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Matthew 7:21

  • The Truth

    The Truth

    The Word of God is the Truth for those that accept it and declare it as such.  The people known as Christians or Believers often suffer severe testing by the enemies of God.  Some of those enemies have even been found as religious sects that are focused on crushing the people that don’t coform to their ways or beliefs, but God is not found in one church or one specific denomination.  God is not bound to a box of man made rules.  God fills all and sees and knows all.  There is nothing that is hidden from God, so why try to hide or pretend with God?  He knows our needs and He supplies the remedy for all of them with His Son, Jesus.

    God is creative and full of beauty and goodness.  That shouldn’t be too tough to figure out considering the beauty of the skies and the earth.

    The diminishing beauty of the earth is not the fault of God, but it is the result of sin and suffering, because the earth was not created to be ruled by evil, therefore the evil will eventually cause the earth to utterly crumble when the weight of sin reaches its limit.

    That is not a distant delusional thought.  It is the truth, but God has a new earth prepared for those who love him, and hold fast to what is good and right.  What is good and right?  Jesus Christ, the Word of God manifest in the flesh as a man.  He was crucified, was raised from the dead and is seated in Heaven with the Father while all of his enemies are being destroyed one by one.  That sounds pretty harsh, but it is actually a beautiful story that unfolds in every life as they realize their need for a savior.  No one can save himself from the corruption of sin, and there is no peace in the world for anyone separated from God’s presence without Jesus Christ.  Jesus, aka Immanuel-God within man, is formed inside of each believer as they continue to surrender to Jesus as their Lord, and obey his command to love others.

    If you are a devout atheist or agnostic, you are being deceived and the peace that you have is only to keep you from seeking what is real; the One True God and Savior.  Apart from Jesus, no one can be saved or reconciled back to God..

    There is a new lens and a new way of thinking that comes from having your mind transformed by the Word of God, so that all of the mountains that once seemed impossible to climb are suddenly moved out of the way completely.

    We communicate to God through our prayers and ongoing conversations with him throughout the day.  When we are close to God, he shows us what to pray for and leads us to people that need help right then, but when we are in darkness, we receive everything from the news and social media after it is too late to change the outcome.  These are devastating stories of great loss that get reported daily, but they could all be avoided if people would simply turn off the news and tune into God.

    With God there are no problems.  There are only people waiting to be redeemed and set free.  The problems all disappear as we let go of our plans and agendas and simply enjoy the presence and goodness that comes from an intimate relationship with the Lord.

    All who call on the name of the Lord will be saved.  I strongly urge anyone that doesn’t know the Lord to call on him now.  There is no other way to escape the corruption of the world and find peace and be without fear or terror.

  • Seek First The Kingdom of God…

    I had a visitation from God a few years ago on Good Friday 2016. The night before the visit a giant angel was in my backyard. I didn’t actually know it was an angel at the time, because all I could see was what seemed to be a red beam of light coming from the sky into my yard. It was around 4:45am when the bedroom was so bright that I had to get up and go see what was going on outside.

    At first, I noticed the full moon that seemed to have a hologram next to it which was really bizarre, and it seemed like smoke was coming out of it or a cloud of some sort. I truly can’t explain any of this without sounding crazy to most people which is the reason that I never shared this part of the story with anyone, but a few close friends. My husband who saw it all with his own eyes, still couldn’t make sense of it, so he just decided to never talk or acknowledge any of it.

    I have a collection of photos that I haven’t shared before from the last two years that I am including in this post.

    Most of the photos are taken from my window facing my backyard and the apartment complex behind my house, but some are from my trip to Kansas before my dad died, and some from around Arizona and Just wherever I would find a spot to pull over and hang out with God for the day.

    There are many stories that go with each photo and most of them were prophetic messages that I was able to understand when I saw them, but I can’t recall most of the stuff now, but it was a really busy two years! I have three boxes full of journals that I filled up, and I am planning to go through them all and share the things that God shared with me, but I haven’t had time yet.

    God told me that He created me for a special purpose, but it didn’t make sense to me at the time He told me, because I had only been Baptized in the Holy Spirit for a year, and I knew very little about the scriptures and all of the depths of the Bible. I only knew that God was real and He wanted to answer my prayers to rescue the children from sexual exploitation and abuse.

    Everyday has been an adventure and most of the time I had no idea what we were doing or if it even had any impact or value for anyone. I now understand that it all had significant value, because I was willing to walk away from everything in the world and give Him my full attention and time every single day for two years, I am pretty sure we moved many mountains together for more people than I will probably ever know until I am done here and am taken up.

  • Speaking the Language of Love

    Speaking the Language of Love

    When love comes to town, the broken and afflicted find hope. The lost and the lonely are given a family. The orphan and the widow receive support, and the wicked vanish like smoke.  The God that I love and know, has promised good for all those in Christ. In Christ, we have abundant life and blessings filled with joy and peace. He is asking for you to receive what He has already made available for you by accepting the Truth of His Word in your life.

    When we speak words that are against the Will of God, we cause our blessings to be blocked. God doesn’t want any to be suffering or sick, but we must learn to speak in agreement with God’s Word and not the world.  If the doctor tells you that you have a rare disease and there is no cure or treatment, you must be prepared to deny that diagnosis and replace it with the Truth of God’s Word.

    There are strongholds that have been built in our minds that don’t align with the Truth of God’s Word, but the only way we can remove those strongholds is to replace them with the Living Word of God.

    For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart. Hebrews 4:12 ESV

    You can’t pull down strongholds or imaginations against the will of God unless you know what the will of God is. His will is His Word. Read the Bible and get understanding and insight so you are able to move through any attacks of the enemy with ease.  Sickness, poverty and any oppression are against the will of God, so when you see these things, speak the Truth over them. Declare the Word, and this will release Angels to remove those strongholds in the Spirit realm.

    “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.”  ‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭6:12‬ ‭ESV‬‬

    The strongholds of the enemy are everywhere right now, but God has assigned legions of Angels to war on our behalf and tear these strongholds down as we begin to come into agreement with God’s Word and not agree with the enemy anymore.

    It’s time to push back the darkness with the Light of the World! God’s Word is the Light. It’s time to declare what God said would happen in His Word.

    “Behold, I will gather them from all the countries to which I drove them in my anger and my wrath and in great indignation. I will bring them back to this place, and I will make them dwell in safety.  And they shall be my people, and I will be their God.  I will give them one heart and one way, that they may fear me forever, for their own good and the good of their children after them.  I will make with them an everlasting covenant, that I will not turn away from doing good to them. And I will put the fear of me in their hearts, that they may not turn from me.  I will rejoice in doing them good, and I will plant them in this land in faithfulness, with all my heart and all my soul.”    Jeremiah 32:37-41 ESV

  • I Will Save Your Children…

    I Will Save Your Children…

    My passion and purpose to protect the innocent children from the evils of abuse and neglect allowed me the opportunity to help the state of Arizona create the first Child Placement Facility in 2015.  I worked with the Director of the Department of Child Safety and the founders of the nonprofit Childhelp to provide a safe, comforting place for children to stay after being removed from unsafe homes.

    At the time, our state was tapped out of financial resources, foster families, group homes and emergency shelters, because the issue of child abuse and neglect was at a massive high and increasing every month.  The number of children in state foster care in January 2016 was around 21,000, but the state also had a backlog of cases that were around 17,000, and the Department of Child Safety was under new leadership that was forced to expose the mess that had been swept out of sight by former leadership.

    Things did not look hopeful for the future of our state’s most vulnerable lives, and at the rate that children were moving into state custody, the entire future of our state and nation was in grave danger.  I considered how it would look as those kids all moved into adulthood, and I knew that this was not going to be resolved without divine intervention.

    “For thus says the Lord: “Even the captives of the mighty shall be taken, and the prey of the tyrant be rescued, for I will contend with those who contend with you, and I will save your children.”

    ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭49:25‬ ‭ESV‬‬

    I talk a lot about what happened in our state Foster Care System, because it is something that all people should understand in order to see changes in every area of our communities around the nation and world right now. The miracles that have taken place in Arizona since 2015 can’t be disregarded as simply luck or contributed to one or two people, but they are evidence of God’s powerful presence and supernatural intervention.

    We needed our state to receive more than a just the heat of a scorching sun the summer of 2015.  We needed the fire of God’s Holy Spirit to spark an awakening of love and unity in the people that would turn hearts from self-focused to selfless acts of mercy and kindness. We needed a love revival in the hearts of the churches and the people.

    I poured out my heart Day after day in prayers and I asked God to pour out blessings like never before in all of the lives of the people around the Valley. I wanted people to be aware of the awesome love that God had for them, and to know that all things were possible no matter how difficult the current situation appeared. The people would have laughed at me if they knew what I was believing for and what I was asking God to do, but I didn’t share my prayers or hopes with people, because I needed to believe and not be discouraged or doubt that God could do all that I was asking.

    I literally poured out all that I had over and over to those in need. I gave everything, because I wanted to see good for all people, and I thought if everyone received blessing, how could anyone be mean and hurt others? I don’t know if that worked in all the areas that I was hoping to see changes, but I know it will all pay off someday.

    Three years later those prayers are still producing fruit and growing into a beautiful future for the children that previously only knew the worst that life had to offer.

    The Arizona Department of Child Safety is now considered one of the best in the nation. The number of children in state foster care DECREASED by around 7,000 kids, and 17,000 backlogged cases is now ZERO. The number of kids needing placements ZERO. It should also be mentioned that many group homes were closed and many licenses were revoked for the treatment of the children, and many workers were replaced with people that put the safety of kids as the top priority. The leaders of our state legislature turned from blaming and withholding needed funding, to listening and finding ways to help the crisis. The number of children continues to decrease each month for kids in state care, but before 2016 the numbers had significantly increased every single year for seven years straight.

    There is still a need for loving foster families everywhere, but if God hasn’t called you to foster children, He has called us all to pray for these children in crisis, as well as their families and the workers that care for them and suffer great persecution for it.

    Even if your prayer is just to ask God to provide loving families or surround them with people that can bring hope and light to every child so they know they are loved, that is doing something, and we ALL should do something.

    These kids that age out of foster care are in great need of support and mentoring, so they can thrive and not be left behind struggling alone on the streets. I have met numerous adults that live on the streets that came from the foster care system. This shouldn’t be, and it is a sign of the hearts of the people.

    Let our love be true and our hearts be pure.

  • I’ll Be There For You

    I’ll Be There For You

    The darkness has a way of convincing people that it is more powerful and in control by causing fear and terror, but you don’t have to give into fear, because we have something greater than any insurance policy or government program to help us.

    The Lord shows up every time I am in despair and ready to throw in the towel. He knows what the enemy is doing and he crushes him every time he attacks! Not only does he crush him, but then I end up with a huge blessing for the suffering that I endured. It sometimes is good to get attacked, because the reward is always much greater than what the enemy stole or tried to ruin.

    Remember that with every problem God has provided a promise and a provision to get you to the other side with more than you had.

    “The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer, my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. I call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised, and I am saved from my enemies. The cords of death encompassed me; the torrents of destruction assailed me;
    In my distress I called upon the Lord; to my God I cried for help. From his temple he heard my voice, and my cry to him reached his ears.
    Then the earth reeled and rocked; the foundations also of the mountains trembled and quaked, because he was angry. Smoke went up from his nostrils, and devouring fire from his mouth; glowing coals flamed forth from him. He bowed the heavens and came down; thick darkness was under his feet. He rode on a cherub and flew; he came swiftly on the wings of the wind. He made darkness his covering, his canopy around him, thick clouds dark with water.
    Out of the brightness before him hailstones and coals of fire broke through his clouds. The Lord also thundered in the heavens, and the Most High uttered his voice, hailstones and coals of fire. And he sent out his arrows and scattered them; he flashed forth lightnings and routed them. Then the channels of the sea were seen, and the foundations of the world were laid bare at your rebuke, O Lord, at the blast of the breath of your nostrils.
    He sent from on high, he took me; he drew me out of many waters. He rescued me from my strong enemy and from those who hated me, for they were too mighty for me. They confronted me in the day of my calamity, but the Lord was my support. He brought me out into a broad place; he rescued me, because he delighted in me.
    The Lord dealt with me according to my righteousness; according to the cleanness of my hands he rewarded me. For I have kept the ways of the Lord, and have not wickedly departed from my God. For all his rules were before me, and his statutes I did not put away from me.
    I was blameless before him, and I kept myself from my guilt. So the Lord has rewarded me according to my righteousness, according to the cleanness of my hands in his sight.
    With the merciful you show yourself merciful; with the blameless man you show yourself blameless; with the purified you show yourself pure; and with the crooked you make yourself seem tortuous.
    For you save a humble people, but the haughty eyes you bring down. For it is you who light my lamp; the Lord my God lightens my darkness. For by you I can run against a troop, and by my God I can leap over a wall.
    This God—his way is perfect; the word of the Lord proves true; he is a shield for all those who take refuge in him. For who is God, but the Lord? And who is a rock, except our God?— the God who equipped me with strength and made my way blameless. He made my feet like the feet of a deer and set me secure on the heights. He trains my hands for war, so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze. You have given me the shield of your salvation, and your right hand supported me, and your gentleness made me great. You gave a wide place for my steps under me, and my feet did not slip. I pursued my enemies and overtook them, and did not turn back till they were consumed. I thrust them through, so that they were not able to rise; they fell under my feet.
    For you equipped me with strength for the battle; you made those who rise against me sink under me. You made my enemies turn their backs to me, and those who hated me I destroyed. They cried for help, but there was none to save; they cried to the Lord, but he did not answer them. I beat them fine as dust before the wind; I cast them out like the mire of the streets.
    You delivered me from strife with the people; you made me the head of the nations; people whom I had not known served me. As soon as they heard of me they obeyed me; foreigners came cringing to me. Foreigners lost heart and came trembling out of their fortresses.
    The Lord lives, and blessed be my rock, and exalted be the God of my salvation— the God who gave me vengeance and subdued peoples under me, who rescued me from my enemies; yes, you exalted me above those who rose against me; you delivered me from the man of violence.
    For this I will praise you, O Lord, among the nations, and sing to your name. Great salvation he brings to his king, and shows steadfast love to his anointed, to David and his offspring forever.”

  • The Simple Truth

    There are many books and stories that cover the teachings of the Bible. There are millions of churches that hold services weekly in order to share the Truth and help the people grow in understanding of the ways of God and His Kingdom, but there is truly only one thing that is necessary for people to grasp in its fullness and that is LOVE.

    Love is the currency of Heaven. God is Love. The definition of love in the Bible is this:

    If this is the definition given by Paul in his letter to the Corinthians, I think it is fair to believe that it is accurate.

    God is Love, and He has loved us with a perfect love.

    Jesus told his disciples that he was leaving them with this commandment:

    “This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. “

    John 15:12

    Why did Jesus command them to do this?

    So that the world would know who the disciples of Jesus are. It would be clear to the world that all who love one another like Jesus, are the disciples of Jesus.

    If you don’t have love for one another, you are not a disciple of Jesus, because he commanded that his disciples love one another.

    My point in sharing this is to help those that have not yet known the Father’s great love for them.

    If love is patient and kind and always protects, trusts, hopes and believes, while not being proud or arrogant and not envying or boasting, but rejoicing at the truth and not holding any wrongdoing against anyone, but forgiving all, then I think it is safe to assume that our Heavenly Father is deserving of all of our love and attention!

    He sent His Righteous Son to die for all of our wrongs, and know that we can be reconciled through that ultimate sacrifice that paid for all of the wrongs ever done by the people on this earth. We are granted access back into the family of God when we turn to Jesus and ask for him to become our savior and cover us in his righteousness and cleanse us in his pure blood.

    We are then made clean and back in right standing with God, so we can go to Him for help and for companionship and greater understanding of His Kingdom.

    We truly can’t fully grasp how great the love of the Father is until we begin to walk with Him and He reveals His heart to us for the hurting and broken people suffering all around the world.

    When people eagerly seek to be closer to God, they often forget that they can find Him with the lowly. They might experience an aspect of Him at church, but until they pour themselves out to the homeless, the orphans, the broken and imprisoned in our society, they will never truly know the love of God in its fullness.

    Isaiah 58:10-12 English Standard Version (ESV)

    10 

    if you pour yourself out for the hungry

    and satisfy the desire of the afflicted,

    then shall your light rise in the darkness

    and your gloom be as the noonday.

    11 

    And the Lord will guide you continually

    and satisfy your desire in scorched places

    and make your bones strong;

    and you shall be like a watered garden,

    like a spring of water,

    whose waters do not fail.

    12 

    And your ancient ruins shall be rebuilt;

    you shall raise up the foundations of many generations;

    you shall be called the repairer of the breach,

    the restorer of streets to dwell in.

    His mercies are relentless for his creation, but the people that are considered his friends are those that are led with love to do good at any cost to themselves.

    This isn’t to chastise or cause anyone shame. If you attend church weekly and seek to do good and not harm in the world, than you are on the right track.

    There was one more important detail that Jesus put above loving others and that was to love God with all that you are and have.

    With those two things you can transform your world to a place of beauty. Will it cost you a great deal of suffering, yes, because not all the world is able to grasp the depths of love that come from God. They will reject you and lock you out of what their plans are, because they don’t see through the eyes of love yet, but when you walk with God and you ask Him to open the eyes of the blind, He does it. In fact, He is able to do all that we ask of Him, and He wants to do so much more than most people are asking Him to do right now.

    He told me to “pray bigger” when I first began my walk with Him.

    He said that after I asked Him to save one child a night from sex trafficking or sexual abuse. He actually rescued around 185 children that weekend from sex trafficking, and afterwards, He whispered “I want to save more than one a day”.

    He is whispering to you today, “Come closer and don’t be ashamed or afraid. I have loved you with an everlasting love, and I will help you through anything that you are facing.”

  • Declare God’s Goodness and Be Grateful

    Don’t elevate your problems, but rather bring them under the Word of God where they are all defeated. Praise God and bring glory to Him by pouring out thanksgiving and songs of joy!

    God longs to pour out blessings on all of the people, and He waits to be gracious to us, but many don’t receive the blessings, because they don’t know they are available or they speak against them unknowingly.

    Negativity and arrogance/pride are the things that will keep you from receiving your full blessing in Christ. I know this from experience, and God told me that negativity blocks Him and opens the door to darkness.

    So a little tip on how to receive the best and reject the worst: start praising and worshiping God’s goodness, the enemy hates it and won’t stick around, and your blessings will come flooding in finally!

    Don’t blame God when you don’t get your blessing, because it is not his doing. It is the negative atmosphere that we allow or create that surrounds us attracting every demon and blocking every blessing.

    God is looking for people to believe and speak His Word over areas that don’t match up to His Word. He doesn’t want us complaining about what we see. He wants us believing His Word and declaring it over what is not aligning with His promises.

    I included a few scriptures below, but there are so many scriptures that can and should be used by people right now to see good instead of evil.

    The church needs to rise up and believe for the best, and refuse to accept the worst! I don’t know about you, but I have seen enough evil in my lifetime, and I am not going to be looking for more. I will however speak in agreement with what God has promised in His Word, because I need to believe and agree with God in order to see the manifestation of the word.

    You have to know what the blessings and promises are if you are going to ask for them, Grab ahold of the Word of God and speak it over your life and your children and other family and friends! You will never regret doing it! It will bring a harvest in season.

    “For you shall go out in joy

    and be led forth in peace;

    the mountains and the hills before you

    shall break forth into singing,

    and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.”

    – ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭55:12‬ ‭ESV‬‬

    “but they who wait for the LORD shall renew their strength;

    they shall mount up with wings like eagles;

    they shall run and not be weary;

    they shall walk and not faint.”

    – ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭40:31‬ ‭ESV‬‬

  • Love Never Ends

    http://www.youtube.com/watch

    I found the video about this woman’s time in heaven with Jesus, and wanted to share it with people that may be struggling to believe if Jesus is real or have never received Jesus as their Lord and Savior.
    Heaven is a very real place, and I have seen glimpses of it myself, but more than that, I have spoken with the Living God, and I can assure you that He is in fact real, and His love for all of His creation is beyond human comprehension.
    He doesn’t change His thoughts about you based on your understanding, but it takes a person’s faith to receive all the God has for them. Without believing that God is real, it is impossible to please Him. Scripture tells us that God is Spirit and those who worship Him must do so in the Spirit.

    What does that mean? It means that one must be born again by the washing of the Word and the receiving of the Holy Spirit. Jesus said that the Words he spoke were Spirit and life, and those who believe and keep his words will be like a watered garden welling up into eternal life. Those who hear his words but don’t do them, will be like a man who built his house on sand and when the storms came that house fell, and great was its fall.

    What are the words that you need to obey and understand? You must repent for doing things your own way, and love the Lord with all of your heart, soul and strength, and love your neighbors as yourself.
    Give God your first and best, and He will fill you up with all that you need to go out and do His will everyday. His will is not difficult. He wants us to love others and help them right now. Not just the people we like or the people we think deserve help. If you think that you deserved help and you did something to earn the love of God, you are wrong. You received grace and mercy not because you earned it. God loves man, and He wants to be known by you as your Father. He paid a high price to have you reconciled back into his family.
    Love the outcasts, pray for the sick and afflicted, give to all that ask for your help. Never turn away from any human in need no matter how much you think they are the cause of their own suffering. We are commanded to love. What does that mean? love is kind, patient, not arrogant or boastful, Love doesn’t insist on its own way. Love is forgiving and merciful and to follow the voice of God.
    The Holy Spirit will lead you to people that are in need of help, and you will know that you are supposed to help, because if you are in Christ than you will feel the tugging on your heart to reach out and love those who are hurting. When you ignore these tugs on your heart, they will eventually cause your heart to become hardened and you will no longer be in the love of God, and Jesus said to abide in his love and he would stay with you, but if you don’t give love to others you won’t be able to remain in his love for long. He gives grace when it is needed, and he is quick to forgive if we repent, but if we simply ignore everything that he teaches and live only for ourselves in this life, we won’t have anything to look forward to when this life comes to an end. Store up treasures for yourself in Heaven! Do good and give generously. Being stingy and judging others will only bring suffering and lack in your path. Give and go beyond what people expect or ask of you, because that is what God does for all of us.
    Lastly, believe that you are loved and accepted. You don’t have to become a missionary or change your career to a priest. Choose to live in God’s presence and let His will direct you. Pray for others and pray God’s will when you see something that is not aligning with His will. As it is in Heaven, so let it be in this earth.
    Be mindful of the Holy Spirit at all times, and he will lead and teach you all that you need to know. Ignore him, and you will stumble around in the dark or rely on people to guide you instead of God.
    People will all fail you eventually, because they are only human, but God will never leave you nor forsake you, so don’t ignore God to ask people for help. Ask God first!
    God will send people to you that bring the answer to your question many times, but don’t think that all people that claim to know God are speaking for God when they give you advice or preach a message. There are more people that say they know God but don’t really know him than there are people that actually know Him.
    How can I say that? Because he told me that when I asked him if people would believe that he spoke to me through a whirlwind. He also told me that the only thing that can destroy evil completely is love.
    He said that he is waiting for people to turn and help each other right now on the earth, so repent if you have been living for yourself only and ask God to lead you into places where you can help others in need.
    Being the greeter at church is great, but there is more. God wants his people to step outside the church walls and rescue and recover the lost and afflicted.
    If you don’t have a heart to love and see all healed, than don’t go looking for people to help. You still need to meet God and know his heart first.

  • How Amazing is His Grace?

    How amazing is His grace? 

    Until you truly experience the truth of his love for you, you will be blind in the world of darkness. Give him your heart, and he will hold it up with his to ignite a spark that will soon burn with an eternal flame of passion that will consume all the darkness! 

    Fear, brokenness, shame, guilt and grief will flee, and then you will see him for who he is, and what he gave to set you free!!
    Unveiling of Christ in all creation is glorious and liberating to all that have eyes to see it! Pray for the eyes of your understanding to be open, and for ears to hear the sound of love as it makes its perfect appearance in your life. All creation has been groaning with birthing pains as the true sons and daughters are revealed. You are a child of God, and you are made to shine like the sun at noonday! Don’t settle for second hand testimonies! Seek him, and you will find him! Ask what you need, and you will receive it from him. Knock and the door to his heart for you will open! Come in to the House of God with shouts of joy and songs of praise, because his house is not made by the hands of man, but by the heart beat of Heaven.  

    Jesus Christ is the foundation and Cornerstone that will uphold all who are falling, so call out to him and be rescued from the spiritual blindness and the hardness of the heart of doubt and unbelief. He is real, and he is the wildest love you will ever encounter!
    Be blessed and bless others with the crazy, awesome love of Christ that consumes all who call and won’t let go!

  • What Do You Want?

    What Do You Want?

    Have you ever considered asking God for exactly what you want?  I know that we all turn to God for help when we are in crisis or to help others, but have you ever considered that God is wanting you to ask Him to help you fulfill your dreams?  Why would you stay in a dead end job and let all of your dreams get buried under a pile of late bills and dirty laundry?  Taste and see the Lord is good!  Once you have tasted His goodness and know His awesome saving grace and favor that He gives to all who call and trust in Him for their needs, you will never live like a poor beggar again!  If you made Jesus your Lord and Savior, you are now accepted by God in the Beloved.  You are God’s beloved in Christ!  Know the Truth and the Truth will set you free!

    In scripture, Jesus often stopped and asked the person crying out to him, “What do you want me to do for you?”  Well, Jesus is the same today, yesterday and tomorrow, so how about answering him, and watching him go to work to fulfill those dreams of yours?

    Ask and You will Receive

     John 16:23  In that day you will no longer ask Me anything. Truly, truly, I tell you, whatever you ask the Father in My name, He will give you. 24 Until now you have not asked for anything in My name. Ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be complete.

    The only request that was not granted was asked of him by James and John the sons of Zebedee, but unless you are asking to take something that belongs to another, you are most likely going to receive whatever you ask, so that your joy may be full and your fruit abide.

    Mark 10:35 And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came up to him and said to him, “Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we ask of you.” 36And he said to them, “What do you want me to do for you?” 37And they said to him, “Grant us to sit, one at your right hand and one at your left, in your glory.” 38Jesus said to them, “You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, or to be baptized with the baptism with which I am baptized?” 39And they said to him, “We are able.” And Jesus said to them, “The cup that I drink you will drink, and with the baptism with which I am baptized, you will be baptized, 40but to sit at my right hand or at my left is not mine to grant, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared.”

    How can we abide in Jesus?  Do his will.  Love God and love others like he loves us.  Do good and don’t cause others harm.  To remain in Jesus means to know him, and live with him daily.  Not a prayer to get what you want on a rare occasion, although he does answer those too, but you truly won’t ever want to leave his love once you are fully aware of it in your life.  Share the love of God with those in need and bless others with the blessings that you have received.

    Heaven is not like earth.  In heaven, everyone is excited and waiting to tell you what Jesus did for them.  Here on earth people usually want to tell you about themselves and what they think they did.  If they only realized that much of what man does is only possible by the grace of God in their life.  Be grateful and realize how good God is so that you can enjoy his presence always with you.

    If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. John 15:7 ESV

  • Grace, Mercy and Miracles

    Grace, Mercy and Miracles

    Who is like our God?  His love is so pure and holy that it is hard to grasp with an earthly mind.  He doesn’t change his thoughts about us.  He knows who we are and how we think and behave, as well as what causes our behaviors.  He longs to help all of his creation reach their full potential in Christ and fulfill the destinies that he planned for each life long ago, but many people have been taught wrong about who God is and how he thinks of us.  I want to share the God that I know with anyone that has never known the living God, creator of all.

    Like most people in the world, I was unsure of whether or not there was a God, but I had a deep fear of the darkness and the things that I couldn’t see, so out of fear, I was forced to run to God for help.  God showed up in all of my mess and has been leading me deeper and deeper into His love ever since. Am I perfect, not even close, but I don’t pretend to be anything that I am not with God. He knows all of my weaknesses and all of my faults. That is why he gives more grace and gives me His Holy Spirit to overcome the lies with the truth. There are so many miracles that I would love to share, but the greatest miracle isn’t what God is doing for me, but rather what God did for all mankind when he sent his son into the world to take upon himself all of our wrongs. All of the evil and wicked things we have ever done or ever could do will all find forgiveness in the moment that we accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior.

    How can that be possible? Does it seem to good to be true? Well God really is too good for most people to believe that he is real, but that doesn’t change the truth that he is real and he is good always. His love and mercy for us runs so deep and wide that nothing will deter him from bringing us back to his house. He is our Father. We came from him before we were in our mother’s womb. He planned everyday of our lives before we arrived here, and he will never let anyone or anything take us from his hand. I don’t care if you are buried in shame and guilt from a wasted life or if you are a bitter old religious nut, His great love and mercy extends to all peoples, all nations and all backgrounds.

    If you have suffered terribly, that means you can expect a great blessing and beauty for all of those ashes of the past that will be burned to nothing in order to bring forth the new life that God calls you to now. Today is the day of salvation. Today is the day for transformation and restoration of all that was lost.

    Call upon the Lord while he can be found! Now is the time to turn and receive everything the Lord has for you! Eternal life and redemption can be found in no one else. You must accept Jesus Christ as your righteousness, because all the good deeds in the world will never be enough. Jesus is the ONLY way to be restored fully to the Father and live in Shalom. Completeness, satisfied and glorified in Truth of God’s great mercy and grace which He is ready to pour out through His Holy Spirit.

    Pray these words now, and you will receive forgiveness for all of your past sins, and be given the Holy Spirit to provide all that you need to move upward right now;

    Heavenly Father, I repent for all of my wrong thinking and selfish living that I did apart from you. I need your covering to overcome and move in the right direction to bring glory to your name. I accept the finished works of Jesus Christ and ask that you come into my heart and be my Lord and Savior. Lord I want to forgive all that have hurt me just as you have now forgiven me for all of my wrongs. I release all of the people now that ever caused me hurt in any way including those that I wasn’t even aware of. I ask for the beautiful exchange for all of my wrongs, hurt and suffering I release to you now, so you can replace them with peace, hope, joy and a new day with faith, hope and love leading the way. Amen

    If you said that prayer, and you are ready to live in a new realm of love and peace, you just made the greatest choice ever! You can begin your new journey by seeking God daily and asking Him to lead you and help you in everything.

    There is no part of your life that he doesn’t care about. He promises to fulfill all of your heart’s desires and you delight yourself in him, and he will carry those once heavy burdens for you and make life a peaceful journey that you can share with others by showing them the same love and mercy that you received. Pray for all peoples and nations to be set free from the bondage and corruption of the world, and to be restored to God! Our prayers our vital for the lives of others. Bless everyone and do not curse anyone no matter what they did to hurt you or another.

    Cursing only causes more evil, but blessing brings life and love to those that are in need of it!

  • Enough

    via “Numbers” – Child Exploitation & Sex Trafficking PSA on Vimeo

    I stepped out of the work with sex trafficking prevention and recovery of youths a few years ago, because I wasn’t spiritually ready for the battle that came with this type of evil and darkness, but I am fully armed with the Word of God, and the strength of the Holy Spirit now.  I officially decree and declare that this evil will not remain in my city or state.  If God be for us, who dare be against us?!

    The stealing and selling of lives for sex is the work of the Devil, and if you have ever purchased a person for sexual enjoyment, you are participating in the works of Satan.  I am not being a religious nut by saying this.  I am speaking the Truth.  “The Devil comes to steal, kill and destroy, but I come so that they may have life, and have it more abundantly”

  • Taste the Rainbow

    Taste the Rainbow

    I had a dream that a giant rainbow was right in the middle of the city, and all of the people were walking through the rainbow. The people all seemed to be dead and like heaps of ashes ready to blow away if the wind picked up. Zombie-dead and burned out lives I guess. As they went under the covering of the massive rainbow, showers of sparkling, crystallized rain poured over them. When they reached the other side they were full of vibrant colors and beautiful

    They all started out completly dead, but as they went on a bizare journey under the rainbow cover, they were all refreshed and reborn into a beautiful and vibrant life!

    How awesome God is making all of His creation that accept Jesus Christ! Don’t let pride or lies keep you from experiencing this whole new and glorious thing God is doing right now. It’s time for a new day for all of creation! Believe in God and accept Jesus Christ’s sacrificial life, death and resurrection as enough to cover your wrongs. Make Jesus your Lord and let go of the burnt up life you currently are trying to rescue and repair. God is saying “Stop trying to repair what is polluted and poisonous in your past. I will give you a new and better life, if you will just believe and trust me to do this for you!”

  • Light of Life

    And the earth was without form and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. (Gen 1:2)

    It’s difficult to imagine beauty in the midst of great darkness, but that is exactly what God is asking us to do in our own lives and the lives around us. We are to rise up and overcome great challenges and set backs that have left many hidden in pits, trapped in webs of deception and even locked away in prisons or our own mental cells of hell. Anyone that has come out of those circumstances can tell you that there was a time when they didn’t see any light or way of escape, and it is in that moment that all seems lost and hope has departed.

    Out of desperation, people grasp in the darkness for something not yet seen or known to them when they cry out to God for help. Some have fallen so far below that they can’t even find the strength to speak the words, “Help me, God!” My heart hurts just typing those words, because I know the suffering and torment that brings a person to that place of deep anguish in the soul. Not knowing if there is a God, and believing that even if there is a God, how could He ever hear the cry of one that never even cared to know Him?

    When the words just won’t come out, but the thoughts begin to drift through the mind, “What if there is a God?   Maybe if I promise to change, He could forgive me?” Those thoughts are usually met with the voice of the enemies taunts, “God would never forgive you! You think God would really listen to you? You don’t deserve to even ask for help! This is your mess, you deserve everything that you got! You are a loser! No one cares about you!” Unfortunately those thoughts are often louder and much more convincing than the thoughts that question if God is willing and able to help.

    The truth is that God is good ALL the time. His goodness doesn’t change with our behavior or circumstances. He is unchanging and His love is everlasting. He longs to help each and every one of His creation. In fact, God is so good that He will begin working out a rescue operation before you ever ask or pray. Just because we don’t know God, doesn’t mean that He doesn’t know us. He knows all of His creation right down to the number of hairs on each of our heads, so take heart my child. God is always for you, and He will NEVER be against you.

    God has a beautiful plan for each and every life, but it takes free will to step into that life. We make the choice to grab ahold of the good life, or to reject God and continue down the path of destruction. Even the wealthy and seemingly wise man that never bothered to know God will eventually come to great ruin. It might not be until his time on earth is up, but when he could be passing into his eternal life with the beauty of God’s Kingdom welcoming him, he is instead met with utter darkness and eternal torment of being apart from God. When he dies, so does his wealth and great wisdom. He can’t take anything that he collected for himself on the earth with him, and what happens to all of those great riches of materialistic things he piled up? They are all given away, and ultimately they will all end up in the hands of God’s beloved children.

    How do I know that? It is all written in scripture. In fact, everything that you could ever need to know is found in God’s Word. It is more than an outdated, dusty book to store family photos or death certificates. It is the spirit-filled, living word of God. The words are filled with life that come into a person and begin to transform their thoughts and attitude toward God and man. A living, breathing document that just sits on a shelf waiting to bring life to anyone that will take ahold of it.

    Everyone loves a great blockbuster movie about a Superhero saving the world, or an epic love story that ends with a giant wedding. While others might prefer a full on battle and blood, action-packed, war film, or a deeply complex drama with interwoven story lines and plots that all play out simultaneously and yet somehow all come into one place at the end, so if you enjoy any of those, you will be thrilled to know that all of them could describe the Bible. Just like the Word of God can be described in any of those genres, so can the manifest Word of God, Jesus Christ. He is an immortal being that died for all of our sins and came back from the dead, he is our peace and our hope, he is a victorious warrior that fights our many battles for us.  He intercedes with prayers for us, and he loves you so much!  He is the kindest, most awesome friend that you could ever have, but still the bravest, most powerful and mighty Lord that has all authority in heaven and on earth.

    God is love, and His love is perfect. It doesn’t change, it doesn’t fail, it doesn’t defile and it lasts forever. In fact, every promise in God’s Word He fulfills.

    You might ask, “Why don’t I see those promises in my life then?” I can’t answer that, but ask God, and He will make sure that you get an answer. Many times people have not repented for the evil that they have done or are still doing. How do you repent?  “Father forgive me and wash me clean of all my wrongs.  Give me Your Holy Spirit to help me do Your will and be made righteous through your power”  What is considered evil? Evil is hating any human being, having unforgiveness for others or yourself, harming others with your words or actions, speaking evil (anything that is against God’s Word is evil and is speaking in agreement with the Devil).

    If you want the promises, you have to know what is actually promised or you won’t know what it is that you should have. Many many many people have allowed their blessings to be taken by the enemy, and the sad part is that they don’t even realize what it is that they lost.

    It is not a joke to God or any of Heaven when a person loses out on blessings or walks away from a calling, or even worse blames or rejects God for their own plans. God loves everyone. He is a God of compassion and mercy and steadfast love, but the people don’t always receive what God has for them, because they don’t understand God is trying to bless them, and their own words stop the blessings.

    When people speak lies (I am so unlucky, I will never get a good job, I always fail, I am too old, I am too fat, I am too stupid…) they allow the enemy to keep them locked into those words. What they should say is, “God said that I am His Beloved Child, and He prospers everything that I put my hand to! He heals all of my sicknesses and forgives all of my inequities! I am blessed and highly favored! Greater is He that is in me, than he that is in the world. I am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. If God be for me, who dare be against me! No weapon formed against me will prosper!” Just to list a few possibilities of good, spirit-filled life words from the Bible.  So if you are stumbling around in life, how about you turn on the light and that darkness will flee so fast that you won’t know how everything went from chaos to clarity, but you will finally see when you ask Jesus to lead you every single day!  Turning on the light is as easy as 123…Jesus Save Me!   That is a good starting point.  If you think you were saved years ago, but have never known Jesus in your life, it is time to recommit yourself to actually giving your life to Christ fully.  There really is great reward and benefits to being reconciled back to the Father and living in the awesome blessings and love of God.  He directs your steps, He opens doors of opportunities that no one else can, He gives you His Holy Spirit and you have all wisdom and understanding living on the inside of you, so you never have to be left out in the dark again.  In the words of One Republic’s singer, Ryan Tedder, “Come Home, ’cause I’ve been waiting for you for so long…”

  • Getting Back What Was Lost

    Getting Back What Was Lost

    In a dream, I was sitting next to God, and  I asked “Why are they all behaving that way”, as I watched with Him from Heaven as the people raced around below on the earth.  He said, “because they don’t understand my love for them.”  

    And my heart broke, because His heart was aching to help them, but they didn’t think He was real enough to love and help them, and when the people prayed to Him for help, and He would try to send them earthly help from the people in the churches, none of those people would go and do what He was asking them to do.

    They couldn’t get past the voice of the enemy filling them with thoughts of doubt and unbelief.

    There was a day coming and it was very near when all of His children would clearly hear and understand the truth, because God was removing the thick layer of lies that has been polluting the world for generations.

     

    The doubts and unbelief were being blown away and the Truth was intervening like had never before been seen or done.  God was full of excitement and ready to do wonderful things for all the people that had suffered so greatly.

    It will be like the days of Noah for God. Only the earth will now be uncovered and no longer submerged by evil. Wickedness shuts its mouth and a humbled mankind is what remains.

    Hope, Faith & Love are all we need to have right now! And the greatest of these is love! God is LOVE, and His love is perfect.

    On a day when God spoke to me while I was awake, He said, I am now arising and I will put all of your enemies underfoot. You will soon look up and the wicked will no longer be there. 

    He said the next thing to happen was for us to go up.  He said that “the new can’t come down until we go up, but no one is going up until the people all turn and help others”, he said.

    This is the time of restoration and healing the nations. Every believer that has been restored to health and wholeness now has a job to do to bring others that are sick and suffering to the Truth, so they too can be healed and raised up in Christ.

    I don’t believe that this is a suggested bit of advice, but it was commanded by Jesus to be done when he said, “A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another.”

    ‭‭John‬ ‭13:34‬ ‭ESV‬‬

    A servant is not greater than his master, so wash each other’s feet, because Jesus washed our feet. He gave us the peace of the gospel for our feet, so walk in peace and love to help those in need.

    About a year ago, I was just driving around allowing God’s Holy Spirit to lead me, when I noticed a woman on the corner of the freeway exit holding up a sign asking for help. At that time, I was in the furthest lane from her and unable to give her anything before the light changed, but I felt God telling me to go back and help her.

    I went back on the freeway the direction that I had just come, and exited a mile later to enter back towards the freeway the direction that would lead me back to her. It was a bit of a process to get back to her, but it is never too much to do for another human being in need of help.

    I had plenty of time to pray during the ten minute turn around process, so I prayed that God would use the $27 that I had and multiply it to be enough for whatever it was that she was needing at that time. I told Him that I didn’t know how He would do that, but I only knew that nothing was impossible for Him, so I would only believe that He would make it happen.

    When I was sitting at the light where the woman stood the first time, not one person acknowledged the lady or offered her any assistance. This time when I arrived back to that same light, I could feel the air was changed, but I couldn’t get the woman’s attention to even give her the items I had for her.

    I was only one car away from where she was, but she was so broken at that point that she couldn’t even lift up her head to see that I was trying to get her attention. My music was playing the most beautiful song, and it was so loud that all the cars had to hear it. The song filled the air and the atmosphere began to shift.

    I asked God what to do about the woman since she wouldn’t look up, and at that moment a car honked their horn. I looked up to see if the light changed, but the car hadn’t honked about the light. The person who honked was waving at the woman with the sign to come and get what they had in their hand for her. As I still had my hand out the window, she ran over to my car first. I watched as almost every car had a hand out with money to help with what she needed that day. If a person didn’t have their hand out at first, they all began to see what the rest were doing and that caused them to open their hearts and offer help to the woman too.

    The most amazing miracle took place that day. As the woman ran from car to car before the light changed, her whole life was changing. She was coming back to life as she was filled with hope and encouragement that God can change our circumstances in an instant.

    After collecting all the gracious gifts from the many people in their cars, she stopped right by my car window and mouthed, “Thank you so much!” She was smiling from ear to ear and my heart was so full of love for her, and for the God that cared so much for each and every one of His creation.

    I know that many people don’t understand why I would seemingly waste my time and resources to do random acts of kindness each day, but they aren’t really random things. I am always led to people that God wants to help right then, because they are either praying to Him for help, or they are ready to give up completely, and they don’t even know that praying to God is an option yet.

    I don’t usually get to know the outcome later for the people that I help, but I am confident in God’s power and love, so I know that whatever I ask Him to do for the people I help, He will do it. When I have the time to ask a person their name, I always add their name to my list of people that I pray over during difficult days. There are many that I never get to know their names, and I can’t even recall all of the times and people that I have helped, but I know that God knows who those people are, so I will continue to pray and ask Him to comfort and provide for those people, so that they never feel alone or hopeless.

    Christ in me is why I do the things I do, so this Christmas I have been asking God for MORE CHRIST to explode around the globe, so we can all experience great blessings and joy!

    When people understand that they are truly and deeply loved, they no longer see only their circumstances or problems. They begin to see the lives of others that they can then help lift up around them, and that is how we bring the Kingdom of God into the midst of us. The evil begins to flee and wickedness shuts its mouth.

    I have no special abilities or gifts that aren’t available to all of us. I simply ask for what is needed and believe that God will supply those things. My hope is that this will boost the faith and confidence of others to begin to act in love and believe in the love that frees us all from the bondage and corruption of this world.

    “You have been a refuge for the poor, a refuge for the needy in their distress, a shelter from the storm and a shade from the heat…”

    ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭25:4‬

    “In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.”

    ‭‭1 John‬ ‭4:10‬

    “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope.”

    ‭‭Romans‬ ‭15:13‬ ‭

    THANK YOU JESUS!

  • Collateral Beauty

    Collateral Beauty

    This is a story of how God gives purpose to every individual’s life, even when it ends before it really begins.   The “collateral beauty” is what comes after the loss of any human life.  It is a phrase coined in a recent movie with Will Smith and Edward Norton titled Collateral Beauty.  The movie was about a dad that lost his little daughter to Cancer, and his painful journey to move past her death and to see the collateral beauty that came from her life and death.  The story below is the beginning part of an example of the collateral beauty that came from an unnamed victim from the AZ Foster Care system in 2011.

    My friend and I had just closed my boutique for the day, and the nightly news was playing on the television set in the back room.  My attention immediately shifted towards the television when I heard the news anchor talking about another child death in the Valley.  The story described how a daycare worker in Phoenix had placed her hand over the mouth of a frightened , sobbing four-year-old girl to keep her from waking the other children during nap time. The small child was fighting for air as the daycare worker refused to remove her hand from the child’s face.  The child was kicking, squirming and pushing to get free of the woman who was suffocating her, but she was too small and eventually her struggling siezed, and her little body was left lifeless on the floor.

    This was a parents worst nightmare.  How would a loving family face this tragic loss? The murder of an innocent child while left in the care of a trusted daycare facility is unimaginable, and  was likely to end with the daycare closing and the worker responsible locked away in prison, or at least that is what might have happened had the child been from a loving family who would mourn her loss and fight for justice for their child.

    The daycare worker was not charged for any wrongdoing in the child’s death.  The death was ruled an accident and the woman responsible was free to go about her normal life and even potentially cause harm to more children.

    They displayed the girl’s photo on the television as they reported the story, and her beautiful brown hair and perfect, little innocent face looked so much like my daughter, who was also four years old at the time, that  my heart started to ache as it filled with grief and anger for the loss of this child. How was it possible that no charges were filed?  Was this really acceptable to allow something so heinous and unnecessary to happen to an innocent child?

    The story went on to show a brief video interview with a man who was the child’s foster parent. He told the reporter that the little girl had no family or anyone that loved her. She was essentially an unwanted child and a burden on society.  He explained how there was no need for an investigation or charges in her death. He wasn’t saying it because he thought it was right, but he was telling the reporter why her death would have no justice in his opinion. There was no one to fight for her. He said that she was a sweet little girl who didn’t deserve to die, but her life was not important to anyone, so her death was not important either.  He actually said, “She was all alone in the world, and nobody loved her”.   Although the man appeared somewhat sad at her loss, he seemed to be hiding something, and  I couldn’t help but wonder why a single man was the foster parent to a four year old girl that had no family connection to her.

    Why would the state of Arizona think that it would be in a child’s best interest to grow up in a home with a single, childless forty something year old man as her caregiver, and then do absolutely nothing when a daycare worker took the life of this innocent little girl? After the news story, I decided to do an investigation of my own to find answers that would justify the decision made by CPS, the criminal investigators and the Maricopa County Attorney’s office. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find one detail of information related to what happened to the little girl. It seemed that the beautiful little girl had just faded away silently in the Arizona system of injustice without a trace. Regardless of how inconsequential the little girl was to the State and the community where she lived and died, her life would not go unnoticed or in vain, because I would be her voice that was silenced that day by the daycare worker’s deliberate actions that took her life.

    Most of us never take notice of issues that have not impacted us personally, and I know that the little girl resembling my daughter was the reason that I finally made an effort to do something more.  I wish it hadn’t taken this innocent child’s death to wake me up to the injustice of Arizona’s children, but it was the reason I am now an unwavering, vigilant voice for all the children in Arizona.

    I began researching the child abuse epidemic in Arizona and shortly after discovering how serious of an issue it was in Arizona, I chose to close my boutique, so that I could utilize my resources for helping the children of Arizona. At the time it felt like a difficult choice, but I look back now and see it was actually a gift from God.  After that, everything started to fall into place. I became actively involved with the Childhelp organization, and I knew instantly that Childhelp and its founders were also a gift from God.

    Childhelp is one of the oldest and greatest defenders of abused children in the country. The founders of the organization, Sara O’Meara and Yvonne Fedderson are the only two reasons that anyone should need to support the organization. Their compassion and dedication to saving children from the horrors of abuse are unprecedented. They have devoted their entire adult lives to their work at Childhelp, and through their commitment and unyielding strength, ten million children have been saved from abuse.

    Childhelp has proven to be a leading organization in saving, protecting and rebuilding the lives of abused children. The prevention programs, residential treatment facilities, 24 hour hotline, world renowned advocacy centers, foster care programs, and group homes are all established  “For the Love of a Child”.   Visit  Childhelp.org to learn more about the issue of child abuse.

    I didn’t include the amazing work that God allowed me to take part in with changing the AZ Foster Care System in this story, but I wanted to just mention that this child’s death did more than just give my life purpose.  I fought with everything that I had to help AZ Kids, but I consistently failed in every effort until I prayed to God for help one night.  That is another story, but it is when I realized that there really is hope in the midst of total darkness and evil, because God does hear prayers and He was quick to respond within hours of that first prayer I poured out for the suffering children in my state.

    The Following are news stories about the Department of Child Safety’s progress since God stepped in to help. 

    If ever there was a story worth reporting about DCS and the state Foster Care System, it should be these words spoken by Governor Ducey on Monday at the State of the State Address

    Improved Child’s Services:

    Meanwhile, just two years ago, the problems at the state’s new Child Safety department seemed insurmountable. But because of the committed service of our state’s child safety workers, non-profit organizations and the faith-based community, combined with legislative support – the Casey Family Programs just named Arizona the best in the country for its foster care reduction.

    The backlog that plagued the agency for so long, has been eliminated. The average caseload has dropped from 145 cases to 16. And since a year ago, we’ve found safety and permanency for nearly 11,000 children. So I’m proud to announce that our budget investment this year will be in adoption services, because we are finding kids loving homes.

    Governor’s Office

    May 17, 2017

    On Friday, Governor Ducey signed Arizona’s fiscal year 2018 budget, a fiscally responsible financing package that invests in education, protects our most vulnerable citizens, and expands opportunities for those who need it most.

    The budget empowers Arizonans to foster and adopt children, makes important reforms to reward caregivers, and improves outdated IT infrastructure to ensure that children’s needs are being met.

    Here are three highlights from the new budget:

    • $6.1 Million To Upgrade The Arizona Department Of Child Safety’s Outdated Electronic Management System: For too long, the agency has utilized an outdated IT system that makes it unnecessarily difficult to track cases and serve customers. By investing in critical updates to this digital infrastructure, we’re bringing DCS into the 21st century and guaranteeing that Arizonans can be served by in the most efficient way possible.
    • $2 Million For Adoption Services: Arizona wants to make sure children under state care find warm homes and loving families as quickly and safely as possible. By investing in adoption services, our state can streamline the process of recruiting new adoptive and foster parents, help out with legal expenses, and continue providing other services.
    • $1 Million To Increase Funding For Kinship Caregivers, Known As The “Grandmother Stipend”: Foster parents receive a stipend to alleviate the cost of bringing a child in need into their families. However, extended family members who become caregivers for that child—instead of going through the standard foster care process—do not qualify for the same resources. By ensuring that extended family members qualify for this assistance, we’re helping these families stay together and rewarding kinship caregivers for their invaluable sacrifice.

    While there certainly is still work to do, the Arizona Department of Child Safety has seen incredible achievements over the past two years:

    • More children are exiting the Arizona childcare system than are entering it for the first time in seven years.
    • From April 2016 to April 2017, the amount of time it took to place children decreased from 32 hours to 8 hours.
    • In 2016, DCS achieved a 11 percent increase in children achieving permanency over the prior year.
    • The total number of open reports has been reduced from more than 33,000 in April 2015 to less than 6,500 today.
    • Over the past two years, DCS has safely reduced the backlog of inactive cases from more than 16,000 to less than 500 today.

    By supplementing policy and process improvements with investments in programs that work, we can ensure that children and families throughout Arizona are safe and secure.

    This year’s budget is another step in making that happen.

    Report: Arizona Department of Child Safety turn around continues

    Feb 13th, 2017 · by · Comments: 0

    An independent report commissioned by the Arizona Auditor General’s Office has concluded the DCS is on the right track.

    The report, performed by Chapin Hall Center for Children at the University of Chicago, praises DCS for making significant strides in transforming the agency to better serve children and their families, according to a press release.

    “It is clear (DCS) has undertaken a concerted and strategic effort to implement the recommendations found in our earlier report,” the Chapin Hall report stated in the press release. “The strategy undertaken by the Department has been deliberate and intentional….DCS has clearly established a set of priorities that are well-thought out…(and) we commend the Department for making good use of the Independent Review as a guide to transformation.”

    Reducing backlog and workloads

    The report praised DCS for successfully “implementing tailored strategies to reduce the backlog of cases,” the release stated.

    As a result of DCS improvements, inactive “backlog” cases plummeted from 16,014 in March 2015 to 3,470 in November 2016, a 78 percent reduction. Today, the backlog of inactive cases is 1,688.

    DCS also reduced the total number of open reports from a high of 33,245 in April 2015 to 10,536 in November 2016, a 68 percent decrease. Today there are only 7,888 open reports, the release stated.

    “With the backlog nearing its conclusion, many positive outcomes have surfaced,” said DCS Director Greg McKay, in the press release. “A faster response to protect children; more time to assess and investigate; manageable caseloads; fewer children being removed from their homes; and less staff turnover.”

    Hotline

    The report also underscored the improvements made to DCS’s hotline.

    DCS has taken significant steps to improve standardization of its call-screening by implementing a new decision-making guide, which contains detailed explanations, clarified definitions and classifies various types of harm.

    A dedicated audit staff has also been placed at the hotline to further ensure quality and standardization.

    Other highlights

    As of October 2016, the Department had filled 1,341 DCS Specialist positions out of 1,406 appropriated full-time positions.

    Over 1,600 families in Maricopa County have accessed the Building Resilient Families program. Building Resilient Families is a community-based intervention program for children and families reported to DCS where the children have been assessed as safe and the family presents with low levels of risk.

    In fiscal year 2016, 4,625 families were served by the Healthy Families Arizona program, which DCS uses to help prevent child abuse and neglect, and avoid the potential for children being brought into foster care.

    “We appreciate the work of our Legislature, the Auditor General, and Chapin Hall in supporting these needed reforms that have clearly taken flight; there is still much to do but please take a moment and thank a DCS employee, they deserve the credit,” Mr. McKay stated in the release.

    Arizona Department Of Child Safety Clears Inactive Case Backlog

    Mar 20th, 2017 · by · Comments: 0

    Gov. Doug Ducey announced Thursday, March 16 the Arizona Department of Child Safety has officially cleared the backlog of inactive cases that impeded the state’s ability to attempt to improve vulnerable children’s lives.

    In March 2015, DCS was plagued by more than 16,000 backlogged cases. Today, that number has reached an all-time low and is now below the legislative-set benchmark of 1,000 cases, according to a press release.

    “Arizona has accomplished what once appeared to be an insurmountable task thanks to the hardworking men and women at the Department of Child Safety,” Gov. Ducey said in a release.

    “But our work is far from done, and we cannot lose sight of the work that remains and the many children we must protect. By reducing this backlog, DCS can now devote even more attention to protecting Arizona’s most vulnerable children and keeping families intact. This is about the lives of children in our state, who need our help. If we don’t help them, no one else will.”

    Over the past two years, DCS has tailored its efforts to reduce the case backlog, including bringing back three retired DCS employees to work exclusively on inactive cases, hiring outside contractors, incentivizing employees to work inactive cases and streamlining oversight and case transfer processes, a release states.

    As a result, the decreased backlog helped to improve response times on abuse allegations, lower caseloads for workers, and allow more time for DCS workers to assess and investigate cases. All of these changes have contributed to fewer children in out-of-home care.

    “Thanks to the tireless efforts of DCS staff, we have reached this monumental goal by persevering and working together,” DCS Director Greg McKay said in a release. “I want to thank all DCS staff for the sacrifices they have made for this to become a reality and for the sacrifices they make every day serving Arizona’s children and families.”

    There are currently about 17,200 children in out-of-home care, down from 19,044 children in February 2016, according to a press release. Arizona’s legislature set the backlog benchmark for DCS during last year’s session.

    “This significant milestone shows what can be accomplished when we work together to protect Arizona’s children,” Sen. Debbie Lesko, R-Peoria, said in a release. “I would like to thank frontline DCS workers and the director for their hard work as well as my colleagues for passing legislation to support this progress.”

    DCS met the benchmark four months before the July 2017 deadline.

    “When Sen. Lesko and I crafted this legislation with help from DCS Director McKay, this was the outcome we were hoping for,” Rep. John M. Allen, R-Phoenix, said in a release.

    “Although the department and state still face many challenges of providing struggling families with the help they need or moving children to safe and more permanent situations, it is still gratifying that this effort has succeeded.”

    A case is classified as “inactive” if no documentation has been entered for more than 60 days or if services were not provided.

    Due to the length of time that some of the more complicated cases require, there will always be cases that exceed 60 days in our system, which is why the legislature set DCS’s inactive benchmark at under 1,000 cases.
