The following was given on Sunday morning after a time of worship at Harvest of Faith in Southaven.

I believe it is a timely instruction to the church.

You need to pay attention.

Jesus is speaking to us.

I would speak to these people today

I want you to declare this unto them my son.

I want you to declare My love to them.

I would have them to know the dimensions of My love.

 I would have them to know the heights to which My love has gone and that My love  raised up my Son and with Him has raised you up into the heavenly places and seated you with Him at my right hand.

I would have you know the love that I have for you ,that it went into the greatest depths in the very bowels of hell to bring up Jesus from the dead.

When He was brought up He brought you up and delivered you from the fear of death.

I would have you to know the length to which I have gone to express My love for you says the Lord.

I’ve gone as far as giving my very best to demonstrate how much I love you.

I want you to know the dimensions ,the width , the wideness of my love, not just for a few, but for all mankind, that  includes you.

I have open My arms wide to express My love through My Son Jesus.

I want you to embrace it.

Embrace my love once and for all and settle the fact that I love you and I have chosen to love you.

I will speak concerning grace says the Lord.

I will speak unto you concerning grace because my grace towards you now is abundant.

My grace is moving towards you even now if you will believe my voice. My grace is more than enough, more than enough to deal with the situation in your life. If you would only embrace my grace and lay aside the pride, lay aside the looking at things in the natural but look to my grace.

My grace is an action now.

Beginning to move even now in your family, those that are not even here.

My grace is going there where sin abounds, but grace much more abounds.

Have faith in my grace. Have faith in my grace. Have faith in My love for you.

I would speak to you about one more thing, I would speak to you about mercy.

For I Am merciful.

I am everlastingly merciful.

Let my mercy come  and bathe your wounds.

Let My mercy come and heal your bodies.

Let my mercy come , and restore your minds.

Let my mercy, come  and lift you up out of the pit that the enemy has sought to throw you down into.

For know this says the Lord, I threw the enemy down from from his high place and now he is under your feet.

I placed him there.

Allow him not to rise up ,to put him on a pedestal for he is defeated, says the Lord.

Give him no place.

Give him no place.

Give him no entrance.

Shut the door, shut the door and trust me says the Lord.

For I will bring about in you life that you will believe.

I want you to increase in your believing for that  I have for you, increase your believing, increase your trust.

With every obstacle comes opportunity to say, I trust you Lord, and release that grace, release that love, release that mercy which is yours,

For I declare to you this day that is My will for you, that’s My will for this people.

So embrace it says the Lord.

Enjoy it, live in it, says the Lord.

Rise up says the Lord, above the darkness and  into the victory.

For faith is the victory and I give that faith through this word says the Lord Almighty.

I saw Angels ,flames of fire rise up and go about their appointed business, ministering for the heirs of salvation.

I saw in the congregation the heavenly host as you began to speak and believe. Angels began to rise up and to go about the assignment. Their assigned to me and to you.

Begin to put faith in it, that Angels are assigned to do and to carry out the work of the Lord.

Just believe it and trust. Don’t fret and don’t worry. They are about their business to work for you and accomplish that, to work on your side. They have been assigned, dispatched and risen  to where the

should be . They are in place.

 

Memories of Church As a Child

Today’s thoughts due to last weeks meeting-

 

When I was a small girl about 8 years old, actually in the beginning of my father’s perpetual LAST slide into alcohol and the delights of cocaine, my mother had a very large mole removed. At the time in my eyes it was a dire situation and my mother relished treating it as such.

Neighbor women arrived to sit watch, whatever that was.  From my perspective it was all about a period of time  when the neighbor/school ladies who you gossiped fiercely about at all other times were welcomed into your home with graciousness. Casseroles seemed to have a great deal to do with the whole ritual. Looking back on it, it was the closet thing to  a family reunion that I ever experienced. In general Cali’s don’t  sit watch and in all due cases rarely  give a rip about a mole removal or a death in the family, so it was actually a big deal.

So, for 3 days after the Great Mole Removal, our house was  a wonderland of gossip and casseroles.  I recall with trepidation- the Great Tinfoil Shortage……several large women I didn’t know  in a panic about how to cover and thus preserve arriving casseroles once Reynolds aluminum was wiped out. That was about as deep as it got, but there was one  wonderful thing that happened……

For the 3 days that women arrived to sit and guard food, it seemed to me, anyway, my father was  even more scarce than normal. See. Some of the neighbors, were what he called “church ladies” and he found it difficult to sneak round and drink incessantly while under  such a watch.  Mostly he was a beer man then , but was just acquiring  his scotch taste. He viewed the women as deacon harlots (hi s term) and remained in a constant fit of paranoia while they were in house. In fact fter the 1st 24 hours he spent most of his time after work in front of the TV tightly gripping a spiked Coca-Cola and shooting the evil eye at the helpful women.

As for me, I have awfully fond memories of it, truth be told! Our home never had such warmth and so damned much hot food. By that age  was accustomed to heated up a bagel for myself if I desired any breakfast. And packing the Barbie lunch box was always a solitary affair. To have these people doting on me and feeding me, well it made me feel all warm and fuzzy. They were the aunts, uncles, and grandparents I had left behind. For three days I was part of a family.

The local Methodist preacher,  Pastor Lester, even came and visited. I fondly remembered him as the guy who gave a rousing sermon at Easter, the one time my parents took me to a church. He was funny.

After the successful cosmetic procedure my mother was invited to that Church an dwe actually went  at least 3 times in a row. I had my name  on acute cutout at Sunday School and was learning some neato for the next few Sunday  when bamo-! Someone offended my mother.  Then Bro. Lester got run off for an indiscretion,which I never fully understood and the church split wide open.  My dad DELIGHTED in this and harped on it 24/7 until I suppose Mom just gave it up. The Bubble Bus still picked me up the next few Sundays but I found myself feeling unnerved at facing my inebriated father and I gave up too.

 

Still , those few Sundays when I was scrubbed and dressed and hauled off to “church” were probably the fondest memories I have of my folks marriage.

In the past couple of weeks I hve seen parents action s in the Church, their response to an offense real or imagined deeply hurt their children and their children’s friends. I am not judging but feel I should share the reminder to be careful about accepting “offenses” and jerking your fmily up to change churches-I beg you to be aware of how it might affect your child or family members…..It is harder to stay nd work things out where the Lord has set you that it is to up and leave in THE SHORT RUN. But I gurantee you that  cutting and running in a time of conflict in your church in the long run can destroy lives!

 

Love,

sd

It ‘s been unseeingly humid down here lately.

It ‘s been unseeingly humid down here lately.  We even had a
thunderstorm, reminding me of Mississippi…………..the hot summer rains
that arrive  from a gunmetal sky and drench the red delta dirt  of my
childhood visits to “home”.   Those rains inevitably caused the old
white men in the Kroger’s to fret and grumble if the cotton had yet to
be picked up. But that’s another story.  For some reason I always
thought of Mississippi as home, even though at an early age I was
uprooted and transported to  California. In California, it seems that
no one has roots there, that everyone  originated from somewhere else.
I ‘ve never felt entirely comfortable calling it “home.” And so.
But here I am completing my 16th unlikely year in the unlikely
environs of  Baja California Mexico.
Who’d of ever thought I’d wind up  here…….and call it “home?”
Back to the weather, though.  It had me feeling a bit homesick and out
of sorts………………….but the clouds broke around  5:30 and the air  brought
the smell and chill of the ocean so close by. I  decided to say
“forget it, for now” and procrastinate on gathering  the receipts for
last month for which my crazy bi-polar accountant is hounding me
already, and to sit on the balcony with  little green coca-cola.
No sooner than I arranged myself on a lounge chair with my icy soda,
than I see puffs of dirt on the trail thru the weeds from the
cuarteria to the mission. Voices carry thru the now brisk air, and
little ones start appearing getting larger and larger as they
approach. Still most are only about 3 feet tall. It’s “toddler’s hour”
when the littleun’s come to get their 2 liters of water. At the end of
the line  is a bigger one though.
I cant tell who it is , just another brown round face in the setting
sun, but as the silhouette nears a bright white smile appears. Big
white teeth and dinner-plate eyes. It’s Aquilino.  I am trying to
figure why the big smile which is visible for some 400
yards…………….hmmmm.
As he gets below the balcony, I’m bursting with questions. (It’s been
a slow day at the mission, and I’m a Mexican neighbor now, and well,
we thrive on NEWS. Not CNN, or MSNBC, neither of which I get, but
neighborhood news. Who had a baby, why did the police come, who’s
arriving or leaving from or to Oaxaca……………….the lifeblood of a “slow”
day.
The news is actually minor so far.  But I feed him a sandwich as he
regales me with tales of someone’s grandmother and his cousin (both
the same person, go figure but everyone but me is related) and I
continue to ply him with chips and half my soda to get the real source
of the smile on his dirty little face.
See I ‘ve learned that here nothing is fast or easy, watches are
scorned and dates not really applicable unless you own money and even
then, well , it’s Mexico, right? So I am impatiently playing patient
pastora, because this guy is just grinning like a madman.
Finally, I can’t hold it.  “So Filli, (which is what everybody calls
Aquilino, only the Lord knows why, but no one in Mexico goes by their
birth name , but an “apodo” or nickname that has usually no bearing or
reason in it’s assignation). When I call him Filli, he gives me a sly
look. Like okay down to business.
“Hermana! They are back. THEY are back. The Ixpa’s. The funny people.”
And I am instantly hungry for details and so intrigued as he tells me
of two families who were moved OUT of the Camp to make way for these
curious Ixpa’s. They were here like 5 years ago. And Filli was totally
on love with the oldest Ixpa girl. Ayela.
The thing is tho that the Ixpa’s are not from Mexico. They are a part
of a Brazilian tribe, who somehow stole over Mexico’s Southern Border,
then got stuck in Puxtla, Oxa. Then got to know some triques and made
their way up here. Really rare and a bizarre group to the Mexican
Indians. An “exotic” people.
Filli and I bust open another Coke and reminisce to his 7th birthday
when this exotic  group arrived.   They are exotic, more so to me than
even the Zapotepos which rarely arrive from Guerrerro. They are so
otherworldly, like something from a National Geographic page as the
women go topless and bath in the open…………………….and the little boys wear
a little leather pouch around a strategic area, and even the big boys
revert to this on the days off. They will live in the Camp but apart
in their yurts, thee mud and stick huts that they are already
constructing…………(I sent Aquilino down with my camera tonight hopefully
he’ll have pics by manana. He ‘s on a secret  correspondent’s
mission.)
So I look forward to seeing if they will remember me, if they are the
same families who were here years ago and a million other  things.
There is a buzz of excitement as I now here other children telling
Frank downstairs that “they” are back.
I am blessed to live this excitement. But MOSTLY truly the blessing is
the smile on Filli’s face when he arrived. And the way he included ME
in the neighborhood excitement. Taunting me with his “knowledge” but I
m grateful that I have been accepted. Like the news arrived and it
needed to be delivered and though I am a foreigner, I am on the
“pipeline”.  A neighbor.  It is a privilege for which I thank  Jesus.
For me it is a big deal to feel a PART of the community, not a visitor
but a member.  It is the Gospel that has made us such for no other
glue exists between us but that we all BELIEVE in HIM.
Praise JESUS

You Are a Giver

You Are a Giver
Luke 6:38 “give, and it will be given to you. they will pour into your lap a good measure—pressed down, shaken together, and running over. for by your standard of measure it will be measured to you in return.”
Jesus makes this statement of truth or reality. that if we give we will have it given to us. God made you to be a giver. Why did He do this . what is His purpose in creating you to be a giver?
You where formed or made a giver. You are one already. The challenge is are we functioning in what He created us to be.
Isa 44:24 thus says the LORD, your redeemer, and the one who formed you from the womb, “I, the LORD, am the maker of all things, stretching out the heavens by myself and spreading out the earth all alone, Jer 1:5 “before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I have appointed you a prophet to the nations.”
Realize this : You are already formed as such. You only require activation.
You know if you get a credit card. you are already approved for a line of credit. It is yours. But you have to call and active it n order to receive the benefit.

He made you a giver. How do I know this?
Ge 1:26 ¶ then god said, “let us make man in our image, according to our likeness;
God is a giver: Joh 3:16 “for god so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish, but have eternal life.
Ro 4:17 (as it is written, “A FATHER OF MANY NATIONS HAVE I MADE YOU”) in the presence of him whom he believed, even god, who gives life to the dead and calls into being that which does not exist.
What he can do a does is to tempt you that this Word is not real. he seeksYou do not have to do anything to become what He has made you you do have to do something to activate yourself.

Jas 2:20 but are you willing to recognize, you foolish fellow, that faith without works is useless?
Jas 2:26 for just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead.
Your faith in who he made you to be activates you. Faith involves both words and deeds to be real faith.

To activate yourself as a giver you must give. The result is thatas a active giver you will have given to you. Now the enemy can not and is powerless to stop this universal law of giving to discourage you into not activating this reality.


hab 2:10 “you have devised a shameful thing for your house by cutting off many peoples; so you are sinning against yourself.
11 “surely the stone will cry out from the wall, and the rafter will answer it from the framework.
12 “woe to him who builds a city with bloodshed and founds a town with violence!
13 “is it not indeed from the LORD of hosts that peoples toil for fire, and nations grow weary for nothing?

gal 6:6 the one who is taught the word is to share all good things with the one who teaches him.
7 do not be deceived, god is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, this he will also reap.
8 for the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the spirit will from the spirit reap eternal life.
9 let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we do not grow weary.
10 so then, while we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, and especially to those who are of the household of the faith.

heb 12:3 for consider him who has endured such hostility by sinners against himself, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.

I have observed that people who were once into giving soon cease in their giving and become cynical thus become inactive in their purpose in this life

The statment in Luke 6:38 about giving is preceded by Luke 6:20through verse 37. In our zeal to get people to give many time preachers fail to enlighten people of the whole scene. Jesus starts out revealing what we would call the negative circumstance of this anointing of giving.

Like 6:20 ¶ and turning his gaze toward his disciples, he began to say, “blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of god.
21 “blessed are you who hunger now, for you shall be satisfied. blessed are you who weep now, for you shall laugh.
22 “blessed are you when men hate you, and ostracize you, and insult you, and scorn your name as evil, for the sake of the son of man.
23 “be glad in that day and leap for joy, for behold, your reward is great in heaven. for in the same way their fathers used to treat the prophets.
24 “but woe to you who are rich, for you are receiving your comfort in full.
25 “woe to you who are well-fed now, for you shall be hungry. woe to you who laugh now, for you shall mourn and weep.
26 “woe to you when all men speak well of you, for their fathers used to treat the false prophets in the same way.
27 ¶ “but I say to you who hear, love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,
28 bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.
29 “whoever hits you on the cheek, offer him the other also; and whoever takes away your coat, do not withhold your shirt from him either.
30 “give to everyone who asks of you, and whoever takes away what is yours, do not demand it back.
31 “treat others the same way you want them to treat you.
38 “give, and it will be given to you. they will pour into your lap a good measure—pressed down, shaken together, and running over. for by your standard of measure it will be measured to you in return.”

Givers start out poor, hungry, sad, hated and persecuted. In other words we start out inactive and in the natural incapable of giving and being what He created us to be.


His reply to this is Luke 6:30 “give to everyone who asks of you, and whoever takes away what is yours, do not demand it back.31 “treat others the same way you want them to treat you.

Then He instructs us in the attitude and actions to maintain in order to continue your ministry of giving.

Luke 6: 32 “if you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? for even sinners love those who love them.
33 “if you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? for even sinners do the same.
34 “if you lend to those from whom you expect to receive, what credit is that to you? even sinners lend to sinners in order to receive back the same amount.
35 “but love your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the most high; for he himself is kind to ungrateful and evil men.
36 “be merciful, just as your father is merciful.
37 ¶ “do not judge, and you will not be judged; and do not condemn, and you will not be condemned; pardon, and you will be pardoned.

The Three challenges to activating and maintaining your purpose n giving are.

1. Realize you are a giver ( I ask you to say this out load right noe) I am a Giver God made me a giver. I am not going to be one I am a giver.
2. Realize and refuse to allow your present circumstances to stop you from doing what you are. you are a giver so act on it give. Find something you have no matter how small and find someplace to give it. Remember whatever you sow you wil reap. If you sow money ,money will be reaped if you sow time, time will be reaped. kindness, kindness will be reaped. I remember one story of a woman who knitted blankets and gave them away. The lady died poor but upon her dead it was discovered in her room in a closet an abundance of blankets that people had given her. she died rich in blankets but poor in money. If only she had understood the law of sowing she could have had abundance of money.
3. Realize that your biggest challenge is keeping your attitude regarding love and forgiveness right. People you give to will probably not be the ones who give back in fact they may appear ungrateful and even hurt you. Your reward comes from God not people.It come through people. People are the channel not the source. People are the channel of God’s blessing but also the channel of the enemies discouragement. People like yourself can yield both to the spirit of God and the spirit of the enemy. Whoever you submit your self to you become a servant to. I admonish you submit yourself to the spirit of Life and be blessed.

Today, Marcial was bitten by a small rattler! (My understanding is that the smaller they are ,the more venom they have, and more powerful……I was outside when it happened. I watched him shake it twice, JUST LIKE PAUL IN THE BIBLE (acts)DID. It wouldn’t let loose. He and I started praying and he shook it off. It bit him on his second finger right hand. I laid hands on his hand and prayed. In the back of my mind was,” well in twenty minutes he should either feel it or be healed”……………………………..this was at 10:30am. At 12 noon I hollered out the mission house window and asked him how he felt.
His answer was “Stronger than ever Sister.”
He worked in the yard till 3pm and went home fine………………………………..
We had agreed before we prayed at how clear it was in the Word that we have power over these things in particular……………………and i know it to be true because I have been bitten by scorpions three times now with no ill effect. I don’t know why the wolf spider bite did what it did, maybe because I didn’t see that specifically in the Word and didn’t have the faith there…………….but today we saw a big miracle and it happened in front of about 20 children as well…………………….
Awesome testimony………..he saved its rattle as a testimony (I told him to chop it off and save it to REMEMBER what Yahweh did)……………………………it was so cool but shows how the enemy starts moving against whenever Yahweh’s Glory begins to manifest. But as you long ago said, the enemy is de-feeted. Not a foot to stand on……………..
