THE PULPIT
Believers are the 'church'. The world is a pulpit where the GREAT COMMISSION is to be carried on from generation to generation by Believers. (Matthew 28:19, 20, Mark 16:15-20, Acts 1:8).
My pulpit is the world. I trust the Lord to go before me and open doors HE chooses. The gospel is to be preached and taught and shared 24/7, if we are to minister like our example, JESUS CHRIST. Ministry is not to be limited to one place or time, etc.
I am a witness for my Lord and Master. He is my Saviour, my provider, healer, my protector, my judge, my lawyer, and my best friend. In Him I live, I move and I have my being.
With joy I share the message of the GOOD NEWS of the GOSPEL of the Kingdom of God whever ever I have opportunity.

For Unto Us A Child Was Born
Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a child is born; unto us a child is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The
Prince of Peace.
Isaiah 9:7 Of the increase of his government and peace there shall
be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order
it, and to establish it, with judgment and with justice from henceforth
even for ever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.
Isaiah 37:31 And the remnant that is escaped of the house of Judah
shall take root downward, and bear fruit upward:
Luke 17:20 And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the
kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom
of God cometh not with observation: Neither shall they say. Lo here! or lo, there! for behold, the kingdom of God is within you!
For unto us a CHILD was born, and unto us that believe and receive, HIS kingdom is given. HIS kingdom is alive and well within the remnant! HIS kingdom is ever increasing. HIS kingdom and HIS government will never end!
Isaiah 26:3 Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on
thee: because he trusteth in thee.
We have an ever increasing peace when we have HIS kingdom within us!
Matthew 6:10 Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, in earth, as it is in heaven.
Have a blessed day.

HE LOVES YOU SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH!
Greetings in the precious, holy and lovely name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth!
When I think about HIS goodness and all that HE has done for me, and when I think about how HE has set me Free, I just want to thank Him and praise Him and Sing and Shout Hallelujah! Praise God!
Jesus gave no place or space to satan.
HE said if we lift Him up HE will draw all men to Himself. So today I lift HIM up. HE is the KING of KINGS and the LORD of LORDS. HE is the great I AM, the ALPHA and OMEGA, the BEGINNING and the END, the AUTHOR and the FINISHER of our FAITH.
HE is WONDERFUL, COUNSELLOR, The mighty GOD, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. HE is my Saviour. HE is my healer, my provider, my lawyer, my judge.
This day I give HIM ALL PRAISE, ALL HONOR and ALL GLORY for HE ALONE is WORTHY TO RECEIVE ALL HONOR, ALL PRAISE and ALL GLORY.
! AM IN LOVE WITH MY LORD and I just have to tell it everywhere I go.
BE BLESSED OF THE LORD MY PRECIOUS BROTHERS and SISTERS!

Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness
and all these things shall be added to you.
Matthew 6:33
Do you need God's divine intervention?
He desires to abundantly bless your life.
What you seek will be found only where He leads you.
Have you encountered experiences with loneliness?
Your experiences with loneliness
develop your appreciation for companionship.
Does doubt try to overtake you?
Inner battles you have with doubt
force you to dig for what you really believe.
Timing is the golden word in having the plan of GOD
unfold in your life.
Timing is a vital key to manifestation of your hopes and dreams.
God will not change what is in your hand
until you change your mind.
Acts of faith and obedience open the windows of heaven.
Your actions can create the current
that sweeps you into the heart of God.
Embrace God's plan and pursue His desired changes in your life.
We are living in times of extreme pressure.
Principalities and powers do everything possible
to hinder the birth of God's perfect plan for your destiny.
To successfully overcome the enemy and survive,
listen diligently to God's voice
and use God's wisdom, knowledge and discerning of spirits.
For the Lord God is a sun and shield; the Lord will give grace and glory.
no good thing will HE withhold from them that walk uprightly.

FAITH in GOD is WORKING ... SOMETHING is GOING to HAPPEN!
FAITH in GOD is WORKING ... SOMETHING is GOING to HAPPEN!
The man who had been lame from his birth
began to walk and leap and praise GOD
when Peter and John ministered to him.
(Acts 3:1-10)
Every work that GOD does begins in the heart.
FAITH IN GOD IS WORKING ... SOMETHING IS GOING TO HAPPEN!
Broken hearts are mended and human obstacles crumble.
All that you have experienced begins to work for your good.
Pursue all that you do by FAITH in GOD and prayer.
Don't allow setbacks to take the joy out of your FAITH.
Continue to believe ... your circumstances will change.
Using your FAITH IN GOD pleases the heart of GOD.
At times you may go through things you don't understand.
You may have to do things you don't like to do.
A Believing Child of God weathers every storm.
Each test and trial can provide spiritual education and promotion.
Be patient in allowing Holy Spirit to complete
the restoring work of GOD in you. (James 1:4)
There is always a gap between where you are
and where you are going.
FAITH IN GOD bridges the gap between the known
and the unknown. the proven and the unproven.
FAITH IN GOD lets you see beyond where you are
and into the place where GOD is taking you.
Your worst circumstances are subject to change ...
and WILL ... as you continue to apply FAITH IN GOD!
Today is not permanent.
Today is the first day of the rest of your life!
TAKE A LEAP OF FAITH in GOD
Through HIS grace HE is leading and protecting you.

What do you need?
What do you have?
Your future is not controlled by what you don't have.
Take a look around and see what you have.
Then ask God to show you what to do
with what you already have.
When you ask God for something
be ready to obey whatever He instructs you to do.
He will not tell you to do anything that you cannot obey.
Through your FAITH in GOD and your obedience,
God can take what you have, and use it
to attract what you don't have to you.
What you can do with what you have may seem insignificant
if you are comparing it to what you need.
In your mind it may not be enough.
In the natural it may not be enough.
However, if you will use what you have as God instructs
God will reveal the value of what you already have.
You may say ..... Use What? More What?
Use your gifts and talents the way God requests.
Pray for others, giving of yourself through prayer and fasting.
Give of your material goods and money the way God leads.
When you do what God leads you to do,
God will attract the harvest you need to you.
Study References, please read
II Kings 4:1-7, Isaiah 1:19, Mark 9:23, Luke 1:37.

HE is the MESSAGE!
I am a Christian Believer and I am American.
As the Word instructs, I pray for ALL leaders and ALL in authority of any kind.
As HIS messenger, nothing more and nothing less. I strive to be obedient as the Spirit leads me.
HE is the MESSAGE! As the messenger I am in subjection to the one I represent. I simply write as I feel led by the HOLY SPIRIT.
We are all unique, and we are a peculiar treasure unto God. We are all made out of the same yard of material. :)
In a way we are the same, but are also different, if that makes any sense.
I am so happy and content with the full confidence I have in HIM. The KINGDOM of GOD standeth sure having this seal ...... the LORD knows all who are HIS, and all is well In HIS Kingdom and in HIS economy in JESUS name.
In HIM and through HIM we are winners regardless, because of the Blood of the Lamb and the WORD of our tstimony.
I believe we will soon experience the greatest revival and harvest of souls ever recorded in history.
United on a sure foundation of the WORD of GOD, we can stand.
Be blessed in Jesus name,
Opal

It is so important to FAST and PRAY, PRAY, PRAY!
It is so important to FAST and PRAY, PRAY, PRAY!
Each of us needs to hear, in our own ear, what GOD has to say regarding HIS will. We need to trust GOD and be willing to obey HIM. We cannot be aligned to hear from GOD, while continuing to look at, and make decisions, based on outward appearance, age (young or old) , gender, color, political party, social status, etc.
We are individually responsible to research, and to look, at the records of those for whom we vote into any office or position of authority (secular or religious) , for ourselves. Therefore it is very important to seek God and to hear from GOD for OURSELF, and to OBEY HIM. If we listen to, accept, and make a decision, based on biased and/or prejudiced information, how can we say we are hearing from GOD?
I am continuing to seek GOD. I will do my utmost to be obedient to HIM. GOD is watching. HE sees and knows all. I want to please HIM above all. I am fully persuaded HE will take care of me and my household, provided I obey HIM, just as HE will for you, if you obey HIM.
WHEN WE ARE FILLED WITH THE HOLY GHOST, we have been given nine (9) Spiritual GIFTS which include wisdom, knowledge, and discerning of spirits. We also should not lightly take anyone's word for anything, regardless of who it is, or what title they may have in front of their name.
The WORD of GOD says the HOLY GHOST is our TEACHER and our COUNSELLOR (If we let HIM be) . WE NEED TO SEEK OUR ANSWERS and CONFIRM THEM IN GOD'S WORD AND ACCEPT WHAT GOD'S WORD SAYS. We read in the Book of Acts where the most noble ones went home and checked out for themselves what they were taught. It is of the UTMOST IMPORTANCE THAT WE HEAR FROM GOD!!!!
We need to remember and consider the events, motives, and also the results, of all that happened with Daniel and the three Hebrew children, Esther, Jonah and Nineveh, Paul and the shipwreck, and others as recorded in scripture. Effectual fervent PRAYING and FASTING can cause manifestation of the CHANGE needed for the good for all.
Have you thought about Haman in the Book of Esther lately? He plotted to have the Jews destroyed, and even built the gallows where he planned to have Mordecai hung, because Mordecai had spoken GOOD for the king. GOD was so far ahead of Haman and the plans of the enemy! At the last moment, there was a complete turnaround. GOD had Esther positioned in HIS DESIRED place of favor with the King for an appointed time when enemy's plot and plan would be revealed and victory and delvierance would be won for GOD'S people. Makes me want to shout Hallelujah! Haman was the one hung on the gallows he had built for Mordecai. The Jews were delivered. And Mordecai was honored for his service to save the life of king. We really need to refresh our memory by reading the WORD and then ask GOD to reveal by HIS SPIRIT how to apply it today!!
I continue to be reminded of one 20th century woman who gained enough influence to result in successfully causing a decision to be passed disallowing Bible reading at school several decades ago. When someone gives THAT woman credit, or blame, for adverse and painful consequences that continue today as a result of the decision made by those in authority at that time, my response has always been, and continues to be, "HER EFFORTS COULD NOT HAVE BEEN SUCCESSFUL IF THE BIBLE HAD NOT FIRST BEEN TAKEN OUT OF THE HOME and HEARTS." We all need to remember, consider and check ourselves daily regarding our choices and the stand we take to see if we are standing for GOD and HIS plan. TODAY it is hardly safe to read the WORD at church or often even at home. I am always amazed at how few people even carry a Bible to church. And that so many admit they never read the WORD even they may go to church some of the time, or all the time.
I was young at the time the decision was made to not allow the Bible to be read in school. I had no clue what was going on politically or in our judicial system. Those of us who are not responsible for sitting idly by and allowing this woman to prevail, are not responsible for the consequences which our liberty and freedom suffers, increasingly and continually, as a result of her actions or the decisions made by those in authority. One question I have often asked ... "WHY did our parents and grandparents not fast and pray and stand up for their Christian beliefs and rights to the point of THAT woman's plan being defeated?"
Although I was not responsible for what happened THEN, I am responsible to do my part TODAY to seek GOD and to HEAR HIS VOICE, and to OBEY HIM NOW! Generations to come will FOREVER be affected and reap consequences by what happens at this election on November 4. Today I ask "What will our future generations look back and say about our actions and decisions in 2008? What will be the consequences they have to bear as a result of our decisions today?
Are we truly considering GENERATIONS TO COME, CHRISTIAN BELIEVERS, JEWS, ISRAEL? Are we really PRAYING and ASKING GOD WHAT HE WANTS US TO DO? I am confident many people are, and I also believe there are many servants of the LORD who will obey GOD. I pray for GOD'S perfect WILL and PLAN prevail. We must continue to trust HIM and not man.
Abortion, homosexuality, immorality, lying, drug use, murder, drunkenness, rioting, disrespect for those in authority, etc., etc., etc. has been having increasingly free reign in our nation for a long time and now waxes worse and worse. More and more Supreme Court Justices and Federal judges ignore GOD and what is right in HIS sight. ALL the people in this nation (as well as through out the world) suffer as a consequence.
What will our nation be like if more FAR LEFT LIBERALS are appointed to places of authority who will be sitting on the judgment benches for decades to come? They refuse to be accountable now. They refuse to stand up for Christians rights now.
We need to really pray and ask GOD what does HE want us to do, and ONCE WE HAVE TARRIED UNTIL WE HAVE THE ANSWER FROM HIM, then we need to obey HIM, regardless of what HE says.
A few days ago I received a prayer request from a friend who was crying over a girl in her early 20's who had decided to abort a baby. She was over 4 months pregnant. This was her second abortion. The girl had not told her parents she was pregnant, but she was beginning to show and wanted to get rid of the baby. She has a good paying job and the ability to support this child. Offers to adopt had also been made to her to no avail. SHE HAS NEVER KNOWN JESUS and SHE SAW NO WRONG IN HER DECISION. The girl had shared with the friend that prior to the abortion she would have to watch the video showing how she would be given medication. Then baby would die and would be cut out of her in parts.
I was grieved and I cried over this girl and the condition of her soul and the reprobate condition of her mind. I cried over the baby which was ALIVE, but which was given NO CHOICE in the matter. I love the soul of that girl. O how I wish I could reach her, hug her and love her with the love of GOD, and that she would SEE and DISCERN and HEAR spiritually and let JESUS help her turn her life around. I am not here to judge her or condemn her. My job is to pray for her and to love her with the Love of GOD. She lives hundreds of miles away from me. All I knew to do was to pray that somehow and someway GOD would put someone in her path to share JESUS and the LOVE OF GOD with her, and hopefully she would change her mind about the abortion and also that she would give her heart to JESUS.
On the news locally I heard a few days ago how a man raped a 5 year old girl and the judge gave him ONE YEAR in jail. How unjust that judge was! Little girls are being used as prostitutes in our own nation, and in our own back door, often with parents consent. Who is intervening? What will happen if more and more Supreme Court Justices and Federal Judges, Senators, House Representatives on national level, as well as in places of authority on state and local levels, are appointed or voted into positions of authority and then refuse to stand for what is right in teh sight of God?
The WORD of GOD already tells us what will happen. GOD will judge each individual based on choices made. Satan appears as an angel of light. Just as the prophet Samuel warned the people of things to come because of their desire to have a king and to be like everyone else, so have we have been forewarned of all that is happening and all that is to happen when we obey, or when we disobey. Once Saul became king, he changed and the people came under greater and greater captivity and bondage, just as had been prophesied by the Prophet Samuel because he was a TRUE prophet and he delivered only the TRUE WORD which GOD had told him to speak to warn the people.
We all have options. There are consequences for every choice we make. Some call evil good and good evil. We were told it would be this way so we should not be taken by surprise that it has come to pass. We watch as some kiss the hand and flatter, affiliate with people to gain financial and verbal support, change their platform to please the people. I am reminded of the outward appearance and actions of Absalom when he was attempting to take over the throne of his father, David. We need to remember and consider that GOD is not going to change HIS WORD or HIS plan to please, cater to, flatter or find favor with people.
I firmly believe in HUMAN RIGHTS. Also that GOD has no respect of persons. SIN IS SIN. GOD desires that none should perish, but that all might receive (accept) eternal life. HE will judge all with righteous judgment. HE is the only one that can judge with righteous judgment because HE judges by the heart. However, there is no way anyone can convince me that any union between man and man or woman and woman is marriage in GOD'S sight. Sodomy is still sodomy as it was in the days of Sodom and Gomorrah. This, like all sin, can be forgiven provided there is repentance and a turning from the sin.
There is a terrible consequence for standing for what is not right in GOD'S sight. The mind can be turned over as a reprobate. Evidence and consequences of the results of reprobate minds increase daily. We can know much about character of a person by the company they keep.
I love all people. I pray for all people. I want to encourage all people to DO, to BE and to ACCOMPLISH GOD'S perfect desire and destiny for their life. GOD gives every one freedom of choice to make good decisions OR bad decisions, to receive HIM and obey HIM, OR reject HIM and disobey HIM.
America is being, and will be judged, by GOD HIMSELF, with righteous judgment. HOWEVER, I also firmly believe that IF we as individuals, will hear from GOD and will OBEY GOD and will stand for what is right in HIS sight, that GOD will protect, and take care of each one of us, and our households, regardless of what happens.
We need to READ the WORD and consider GOD'S WORD as we FAST and PRAY. We need to do this for the national election, local elections and for ALL decisions that pertain to every aspect of our life, as well as to every decision we make and everything we do.
I unashamedly say and make no apologies for saying ... I am PRO GOD, PRO LIFE, PRO MARRIAGE (one and one woman). HIS WORD HAS THE ANSWERS WE ALL NEED. GOD WILL NOT BLESS WHAT HE HAS CURSED and HE WILL NOT CURSE WHAT HE HAS BLESSED. HE IS NOT GIVEN TO CHANGE!
I send this with GOD'S love for all. The LORD is watching for, and rewarding faithfulness. That which we are instructed to do may appear little or insignificant in our sight, but the little things really DO matter. And by the way, I truly do believe we are about to see the greatest revival that has ever manifested in the history of the world. GOD always wins the victory!

If my people, which are called by my name shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and forgive their sin, and will heal their land. ll Chronicles 7:14
Each of us needs to hear, in our own ear, what GOD has to say regarding HIS will. We need to trust GOD and be willing to obey HIM. We cannot be aligned to hear from GOD, while continuing to look at, and make decisions, based on outward appearance, age (young or old) , gender, color, political party, social status, etc.
We are individually responsible to research, and to look, at the records of those for whom we vote into any office or position of authority (secular or religious) , for ourselves. Therefore it is very important to seek God and to hear from GOD for OURSELF, and to OBEY HIM. If we listen to, accept, and make a decision, based on biased and/or prejudiced information, how can we say we are hearing from GOD?
I am continuing to seek GOD. I will do my utmost to be obedient to HIM. GOD is watching. HE sees and knows all. I want to please HIM above all. I am fully persuaded HE will take care of me and my household, provided I obey HIM, just as HE will for you, if you obey HIM.
WHEN WE ARE FILLED WITH THE HOLY GHOST, we have been given nine (9) Spiritual GIFTS which include wisdom, knowledge, and discerning of spirits. We also should not lightly take anyone's word for anything, regardless of who it is, or what title they may have in front of their name.
The WORD of GOD says the HOLY GHOST is our TEACHER and our COUNSELLOR (If we let HIM be) . WE NEED TO SEEK OUR ANSWERS and CONFIRM THEM IN GOD'S WORD AND ACCEPT WHAT GOD'S WORD SAYS. We read in the Book of Acts where the most noble ones went home and checked out for themselves what they were taught. It is of the UTMOST IMPORTANCE THAT WE HEAR FROM GOD!!!!

Arise and Shine
Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon thee. For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the Lord shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee. Isaiah 60:1, 2
YOU are BLESSED to 'BE' a BLESSING!
Remember the prayer of Jabez in I Chronicles 4:10? Jabez asked GOD to bless him indeed. Now some might think Jabez prayed a selfish prayer. However, I believe he TRULY wanted to be blessed to 'BE' a BLESSING, so GOD could bless others through him.
Therefore, GOD answered HIS petition because in GOD'S sight Jabez had the right desire in his heart. He did not want to be a pain to anyone or cause anyone grief. Jabez was seeking GOD'S face (and HIS heart) ... not HIS hand. And GOD answered Jabez prayer.
GOD is answering your prayer too in JESUS name! Rejoice and be blessed this beautiful Friday which the Lord has made.

GOD Never Looses A Battle!
REMEMBER, quitters never win. Keep on your spiritual armor and use your spiritual weapons. Be strong in the Lord. Refuse to quit! Weeping endures but a night, but joy comes in the morning!
If satan's attacks have intensified against you, it is because he is upset because he knows that you are closer that ever to God's outpouring on your behalf. This is proof that hell is upset about what is to happen in YOUR life if you hold fast.
REMEMBER, satan wants you to give up and quit. However, you are not ignorant of satan's wicked and evil devices.
Believe and expect to receive victory in JESUS name. You will overcome by the Blood of the Lamb and the Word of your testimony!
GOD never looses a battle! HE is faithful. Praise GOD and worship HIM in Spirit and in Truth. When GOD is your GOD, you always emerge a winner. Hold fast! Trust and obey GOD. Give HIM all praise, all honor and all glory!!!!!

GOD has not given the spirit of fear,
but of power, and of love and of a sound mind. (II Timothy 1:7)
The thing that causes problems is the very thing
that keeps the solution from getting to you.
Fear, doubt, and loss of focus
hinder blessings and miracles.
Doubt can create situations and problems
which you are not equipped to handle.
The things on which you focus
are the things which will be magnified
You can't get to what is ahead
until you get past what is dead.
Elijah prayed 7 times before the famine ended
and the rain came.
It never hurts to pray one more time.
Your future needs more than your sufficiency.
GOD'S plan for your future
is planned on HIS sufficiency, not yours.
GOD has made a Blood Covenant
which will never be broken or taken back.
Don't wait for things to be right before you begin.
If thou canst believe all things are possible to him that believeth. (Mark 9:23)
Arise. Shake yourself and do what you know to do now!
The blessings of God are drawn to you by your acts of faith.

PRAYER FOR YOU
The fear of man bringeth a snare but whoso putteth his trust in the Lord shall be safe. Proverbs 29:25
In the name of Jesus I pray......... Give to all of us a deeper and greater revelation of your truth by your SPIRIT. As we draw close to you, help us to recognize and receive all truth, for you have promised to draw close to us, if we draw close to you. Open the eyes of our understanding that we may be enlightened to know what is the hope of your calling in us, to us, and through us, and what is the riches of your glory of your inheritance in the saints, and what is the exceeding greatness of your power to all that BELIEVE, according to the working of your mighty power, through JESUS CHRIST who lives in all who accept HIM as personal Saviour. READ Ephesians 1:18-20.
If you do not know JESUS CHRIST, the only begotten Son of GOD as Saviour and LORD, I pray you will NOW open the door of your heart, and receive Jesus Christ as your Saviour, who has purchased and made a way for the salvation for your soul.
For those who have received JESUS CHRIST as Saviour and LORD, I pray you may be strengthened in the inner man to pray according to God's will, and to know (understand) when you have done this, that you can move forward with confidence, knowing you have received the petitions which you asked of God. (I John 5:14,15) I pray you will prosper and to be in health even as your soul prospers. (3 John 2).
I pray for God to strengthen weak hands and feeble knees, provide divine revelation of His truth, divine and perfect wisdom, knowledge and discerning of spirits, that you may become, do and accomplish all that it is His will and desired destiny for you to 'BE'. to 'DO' and to "ACCOMPLISH' for HIS HONOR and GLORY. in the name of JESUS CHRIST.
Thank You, LORD in advance for adding peace and joy, healing and provision to the one reading this, in JESUS name. All praise, honor and glory and thanksgiving go to YOU, our LORD and Master.

HEAVENLY FATHER KNOWS BEST!
PRAYER.. "I know you're watching over me, And I'm feeling really blessed. For no matter what I pray for, You always know what's best."
When things do not seem to be happening like you think they should, remember this ..... Your HEAVENLY FATHER will not WITHHOLD anything that is good FOR you ..... FROM you! Allow HIM to lead you by HIS SPIRIT each step of the way to your 'expected' end which HE has prepared FOR you. It will be perfect, complete and good FOR you. HE has 'A' Plan that gives to YOU HOPE and a FUTURE.
But seek ye first the kingdom of GOD and HIS righteousness and all these things SHALL BE ADDED UNTO YOU. Matthew 6:33. What will be added to you by your HEAVENLY FATHER when you seek 'FIRST' (above all, and ahead of all ,other people, places and things) HIS AGENDA for your life daily? EVERYTHING THAT YOU NEED!!! PLUS, As you delight yourself in HIM HE will even give you the desires of your heart. Psalm 37:4.

EXERCISE Your Measure Of FAITH!
GREAT FAITH …………
GOD has dealt to every man the measure of FAITH. Romans 12:3. Have you ever desired to have MORE FAITH? GOD has dealt (given) a MEASURE of FAITH to each of us. The measure of FAITH that GOD has given becomes 'GREAT FAITH', sufficient for any challenge, trial or need, when exercised.
WHAT IS GREAT FAITH in the eyes of GOD? Consider the centurion in Matthew 8:5-13. He came to JESUS seeking healing for his servant who was at home paralyzed by the palsy. JESUS started to go to his house and heal the servant. However, the centurion told JESUS that he was not worthy that JESUS should come under his roof, but for HIM to speak the WORD only and his servant would be healed.
JESUS said HE had not seen such GREAT FAITH in Israel. HE told the centurion to go his way, and it would be unto him as he had believed.
When the centurion arrived home, he found that his servant had been
healed at the same time that JESUS had spoken the WORD.JESUS sent HIS WORD and healed the servant. Psalm 107:20 The centurion exercised his measure of FAITH so that it became GREAT FAITH. His GREAT FAITH was GREATLY REWARDED by GOD.
JESUS said if we have FAITH as a grain of mustard seed we can command the mountain to be removed and cast into the sea, and it will obey. (Read Matthew 17:14-21)
My husband, Don, often reminds us that GREAT FAITH is required for a little grain of mustard seed to push itself through all the earth on top of it (a mountain of pressure), to the top of the earth so that it may become the greatest of all herbs, accomplishing all that GOD destined the little mustard seed to DO, to BE and to ACCOMPISH.
Sometimes you may feel like the mustard seed, with a mountain of problems, burdens, afflictions and trials. If so, EXERCISE (use) your FAITH in GOD. GREAT FAITH in GOD puts GREAT pressure on the pressure of the enemy and he is overcome or in other words, defeated, in JESUS name.
GOD sees and rewards GREAT FAITH! Be not weary in well doing for you shall reap in due season if you faint not. Galations 6:9. EXERCISE your measure of faith and watch it GROW to become GREAT FAITH with GREAT REWARDS. GOD BLESS YOU!

WHAT IS GREAT FAITH in the eyes of GOD? Consider the centurion in Matthew 8:5-13. He came to JESUS seeking healing for his servant who was at home paralyzed by the palsy. JESUS started to go to his house and heal the servant. However, the centurion told JESUS that he was not worthy that JESUS should come under his roof, but for HIM to speak the WORD only and his servant would be healed.
JESUS said HE had not seen such GREAT FAITH in Israel. HE told the centurion to go his way, and it would be unto him as he had believed.
When the centurion arrived home, he found that his servant had been
healed at the same time that JESUS had spoken the WORD.JESUS sent HIS WORD and healed the servant. Psalm 107:20 The centurion exercised his measure of FAITH so that it became GREAT FAITH. His GREAT FAITH was GREATLY REWARDED by GOD.
JESUS said if we have FAITH as a grain of mustard seed we can command the mountain to be removed and cast into the sea, and it will obey. (Read Matthew 17:14-21)
My husband, Don, often reminds us that GREAT FAITH is required for a little grain of mustard seed to push itself through all the earth on top of it (a mountain of pressure), to the top of the earth so that it may become the greatest of all herbs, accomplishing all that GOD destined the little mustard seed to DO, to BE and to ACCOMPISH.
Sometimes you may feel like the mustard seed, with a mountain of problems, burdens, afflictions and trials. If so, EXERCISE (use) your FAITH in GOD. GREAT FAITH in GOD puts GREAT pressure on the pressure of the enemy and he is overcome or in other words, defeated, in JESUS name.
GOD sees and rewards GREAT FAITH! Be not weary in well doing for you shall reap in due season if you faint not. Galations 6:9. EXERCISE your measure of faith and watch it GROW to become GREAT FAITH with GREAT REWARDS. GOD BLESS YOU!

FAITH BASED FAITH
FAITH Based Faith Do you have FAITH BASED FAITH or fear based faith? Do you pray FAITH BASED PRAYERS or fear based prayers? Do you live a FAITH BASED LIFE STYLE or a fear based lifestyle?

JESUS has already defeated death, hell and the grave and won the victory. WE DO NOT need to FEAR when the LORD sets up HIS throne in our heart. With JESUS on the inside of us, we can live a FAITH BASED LIFE STYLE, PRAY FAITH BASED PRAYERS and RECEIVE OUR PETITIONS.

Food For Thought
The REAL STARS are the ones who turn many souls to righteousness.
The REAL STARS shall shine forever as the stars of heaven.
Regardless of who changes policies, rules or laws, we can rest assured that
GOD has given no one authority to curse what, or whom, He has blessed.
and GOD has given no one authority to bless what, or whom, He has cursed.
In the days ahead there will be many confirmations that
GOD says what HE means and means what HE says!
Are you on the LORD'S Side?
NEWS FLASH!
God has not made any changes in the Ten Commandments and He doesn't plan to. He is the Lord, He changes not ... (Malachi 3:6b)
If my people, which are called by my name shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and forgive their sin, and will heal their land. ll Chronicles 7:14
When we ABSORB God's WORD into our HEART,
and HIS WISDOM into our mind,
Then HIS WILL can enter our future.
Are we really following this instruction of God in ll Chronicles 7:14? Are we really following the example and instructions of Jesus Christ of Nazareth the only begotten Son of the one and only True and Living God in Matthew 6:5-13? Jesus gave the example of HOW to pray, WHAT to ask for, etc. Are we truly praying for GOD'S WILL to be done in earth? These instructions from God the Father and the Son are not an option. IF we are to remain strong and awake spiritually we must obey.
We are told in God's Word that in the last days, if it were possible, even the very elect would be deceived. The SPIRIT is leading me to say to Believers and also to non believers ... Be not deceived by those who lie, are given to change like the wind that blows, and/or who speak with flattering tongues, using words which tickle the ears. The WORD is quickly being fulfilled all over the world.
Remember the days of Moses... There came a time when the people had to make a decision which was the last decision for those who were not on the Lord's side. The ground opened up and swallowed them.
Remember the days of Lot and Noah, what they were doing and what happened in each event. Sodom and Gomorrah was destroyed by fire and brimstone. The only souls that survived was Lot and his daughters. Lot's wife started to leave with Lot and their daughters, but she disobeyed and looked back, rather than to be obedient to the Lord, and she turned into a pillar of salt just like the angel of the Lord had told them would happen to any of them that looked back.
In the day of Noah, the wickedness of mankind was so terrible that God even repented that He had made man. BUT Noah found grace in the sight of God. Even though family and friends did not stand with him, through faith in God and obedience to what God told him, Noah, his family and a seed of all that God had created, was spared in the Great Flood.
Jesus said that in the last days it would be like this. We can see that this WORD has come to pass and is fulfilled daily. We can be sure that HIS coming is near, even at the door.
REMEMBER, the ten virgins. Five were wise and five were foolish. Five were ready to meet the bridegroom when HE came and they were taken with HIM. Those who were foolish did not get to go.
TRUTH and RIGHTEOUS will prevail in JESUS name. The WORD of GOD says so!!! I will make no apology for standing on the WORD of GOD and Ministering the WORD of TRUTH! How about you!
THE ONE AND ONLY TRUE AND LIVING GOD is alive and well. GOD'S KINGDOM and HIS economy stands sure. HIS WORD is YEA and AMEN! HE knows HIS own and HE will take care of HIS children that refuse to bend or bow to the devil and/or his wicked devices. We can place our confidence and trust in the LORD, when we KNOW HIM and HE KNOWS us.

GOD WILL USE YOU AS A KINGDOM BUILDER IF YOU MAKE YOURSELF AVAILABLE!
I am a BLESSED MAIDEN BELIEVER
GOD has placed within me HIS great love for ALL people. I did not choose my skin color as did no one else. I cannot, and will not, allow race, gender, age, denominations or religious beliefs and/or opinions of others stop me from being, doing and accomplishing what GOD commissions me to be, do and accomplish in JESUS name.
I am an ambassador for GOD, sent by GOD on a mission to teach and preach the gospel of the Kingdom into all the world. In fact HE sent BELIEVERS in HIM into ALL the world to do the same.
GOD opens doors that no man can open. HE closes doors that no man can close. References from the WORD of GOD, such as we find in Mark 16:15-18, Acts 1:8, Matthew 28: 18:20 provide instructions regarding the Great Commission for ALL BELIEVERS. We need to be diligent to get on with the work which we are called and sent by GOD to do.
Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. When our thinking is right in God's sight and the words our mouth speaks is right in God's sight, then color, gender, race, denomination, etc can be put in their proper place... GOD is a SPIRIT and they that worship HIM, must worship in SPIRIT and in TRUTH which has absolutely nothing to do with color, race, gender, and/or denomination for GOD has NO respect of persons.
He than winneth SOULS is wise. They that turn many to righteousness shall shine as stars forever. As Kingdom Builders, we must be up and about our FATHER'S business. Are we willing to work in the harvest field of the LORD in a manner that we can win the lost at any cost? One SOUL is worth more than the whole world.
My heart's desire is to bear fruit that remains by winning sould for the Kingdom of GOD. May GOD bless you as you also continue your efforts to win souls for the Kingdom of GOD.

(1) Therefore, being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: (2) By whom we have access by faith unto this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. (3) And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; (4) And patience, experience; and experience, hope: (5) And hope maketh not ashamed, because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts, by the Holy Ghost, which is given unto us.

DO YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE?
Do You Know Who You Are?
Each year, on Labor Day weekend, the Holy Spirit leads me to share at least a portion of scripture from I Corinthians chapter 3. I am not really led to elaborate very much on these scriptures at this time. I am simply led to share them and to pray that God will show you, and also me, whatever we need to see about ourselves, and the work of HIS ministry through us.
I Corinthians 3:1-9
(1) And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ.
(2) I have fed you with milk, and not meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able.
(3) For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is envying and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?
(4) For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am Apollos; are ye not carnal?
(5) Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave unto every man?
(6) I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase,
(7) So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.
(8) Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one; and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.
(9) For we are laborers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building.
(10) according to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation and another buildeth thereupon.
(11) For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
We must decrease and He must increase, if we are to be Kingdom Builders and allow Him to accomplish His purpose and mission through us in the earth.
Have a blessed weekend.

God has beautiful plans for you, which you cannot yet comprehend.
Some situations may seem insurmountable, but they are not!
God specializes in doing things thought impossible.
Where you are now, is the starting point
for where God is taking you.
If God is leading you
His grace will sustain and keep you;

NATIONAL "One Minute Prayer" Vision
NATIONAL "One Minute Prayer" Vision
PRAYER CHANGES THINGS! We need to be DOERS of ll Chronicles 7:14
For a reminder, Set your cell phone alarm to ring at 11:59am.
God bless you. Opal
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Friend,
It is said that during World War II, Britain organized a
simple, "One Minute of Prayer" movement that may well have
helped to stop the Nazi war machine.
Irregardless of your political party, who you are (or are
not) voting for, I think we can all agree that our Nation
needs a fresh touch of God's grace and mercy!
May I suggest this simple plan?:
At ONE MINUTE BEFORE NOON (in each time zone) let's have a
moment of silent prayer to ask God for mercy, guidance, and
protection for America and its people.
Just think of the combined power and impact of millions of
God-fearing Americans taking a minute to pray for our Nation
when 11:59 AM occurs in their time zones. A mighty WAVE of
prayer every day, from East to West!
If you are driving at ONE MINUTE TO NOON, turn on your
headlights (and Emergency Flashers)....we ARE in an EMERGENCY!
Also, TRUCK DRIVERS and travelers, at ONE MINUTE TO MIDNIGHT,
flash your MARKER LIGHTS as you PRAY FOR AMERICA!
I know this seems like such a trivial method....BUT GOD CAN
USE THE FOOLISH THINGS to spark a fresh move of His Spirit
in our land .....and REAWAKEN our hearts and turn us back
to Him! We are so divided. This time of prayer can reunite us!
PLEASE, copy and pass this on! WHO KNOWS what blessing it
could bring to our land? We can ALL use a miracle!
America, may God once again shed His Grace on thee!
May there be standing room only before His Throne!

For a reminder, Set your cell phone alarm to ring at 11:59am.
God bless you. Opal
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Friend,
It is said that during World War II, Britain organized a
simple, "One Minute of Prayer" movement that may well have
helped to stop the Nazi war machine.
Irregardless of your political party, who you are (or are
not) voting for, I think we can all agree that our Nation
needs a fresh touch of God's grace and mercy!
May I suggest this simple plan?:
At ONE MINUTE BEFORE NOON (in each time zone) let's have a
moment of silent prayer to ask God for mercy, guidance, and
protection for America and its people.
Just think of the combined power and impact of millions of
God-fearing Americans taking a minute to pray for our Nation
when 11:59 AM occurs in their time zones. A mighty WAVE of
prayer every day, from East to West!
If you are driving at ONE MINUTE TO NOON, turn on your
headlights (and Emergency Flashers)....we ARE in an EMERGENCY!
Also, TRUCK DRIVERS and travelers, at ONE MINUTE TO MIDNIGHT,
flash your MARKER LIGHTS as you PRAY FOR AMERICA!
I know this seems like such a trivial method....BUT GOD CAN
USE THE FOOLISH THINGS to spark a fresh move of His Spirit
in our land .....and REAWAKEN our hearts and turn us back
to Him! We are so divided. This time of prayer can reunite us!
PLEASE, copy and pass this on! WHO KNOWS what blessing it
could bring to our land? We can ALL use a miracle!
America, may God once again shed His Grace on thee!
May there be standing room only before His Throne!

Time does not stand still.
Events are happening every second.
If all you have is a need,
pray for God to reveal His plan.
You are not defeated
if you keep getting up.
Choose, control and direct your thoughts
to turn events and circumstances into a blessing.
Focus only on things that are worthwhile
and are worth building
Your hope for a better tomorrow
begins with images in your mind today.
The hottest furnace
produces the purest ore.
Place all your confidence in God,
not in your circumstances
The brightest thunderbolt
will be found in the darkest storm
Focus on helping others, not on yourself,
and the help you need, will overtake you.
Choose to see good in others
and in yourself.
You have two ears, two eyes and one mouth.
Use them wisely in the proportion they are given.

Greetings in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth!
My heart's desire and my prayer is that the anointing of the Holy Ghost be upon me as I write and that I hear with clarity what I am to share so that it may be a blessing to others. Although the words I write are sent to thousands of brothers and sisters through out the world, I am so happy to hear from many of you that the WORD is a SPECIFIC WORD from the Lord to you when I send out a mailing.
Some have asked if I am hearing from other members in the body that they are going through some of the most challenging battles they ever have. The answer is "Yes, from numerous brothers and sisters." You are not alone in the fiery battles, tests, trials and challenges you face. It is not good to try to go it alone. We all need each other. As brothers and sisters in the Body of Jesus Christ, we need to press on, press through and press over together. Divided we fall, but United we stand. Satan cannot defeat us if we hold fast to God's Word and His precious promises. We all reap in due season our just due, when we faint not! God has no respect of persons!!! He is bringing us all through the fires again!!! All our battles are the Lord's, and we are the victorious every time.
Your prayer requests become my prayer requests. I expect God to manifest Himself mighty and strong in your life, as I agree with you in prayer! I rejoice over praise reports that you share. Thank you for your prayers for me and my household, and all that pertains to us, and for all of your encouraging words.
May God bless you abundantly to the full, to the overflow in every area of your life. Always remember, Jesus loves you and I do too.

If you live only by what you have to offer,
your life will be mediocre.
If your live by what our Lord has made available
your life will be full.
People, places and things that created yesterday's pain
have no power to control tomorrow's potential.
God is not looking at where you stumbled yesterday.
He is looking at the possibilities of tomorrow.
God will never lead you
where His grace cannot keep you.
You cannot change the past.
Let it go, in Jesus name!
Never attempt to build anything on lies or half truths.
It will not stand.
Only the KNOWLEDGE of the TRUTH can make you free
And only the TRUTH will last.
A child of God has seeds of His nature within
enabling you to believe, decide and choose the miracles that come into your life.
Miracles start with your thinking, believing and confessing.
Miracle blessings are rewards from God when you use your faith in Him.
What you believe, respect and pursue

HANG IN THERE!!!
HANG IN THERE!!!
Is your pathway a bit unsteady or unsettled ?
Do you have unfinished business going on in your life?
God sees you right now. He is mindful of all your efforts.
Do not fear tomorrow. God is already there, and ALL is WELL!
The favor and hand of the Lord is upon you.
As you allow Him to lead you, He will ordain your steps,
He will make rough spots smooth, and crooked paths straight
He will lead you to success, victory and happiness.
It is not what you have that is important,
but what you 'do' with 'what you have' makes the difference.
All are created equal. Each person is given 24 hours each day.
It is not so much how 'busy' you are that matters, but rather 'how much' you get done.
God moves through your faith progressively.
Sometimes it seems only by a small step at a time.
You may not even realize how much He has done
Until you have arrived safely on the other side of your test or trial.
Hang in there!!!
Be be encouraged!
Praise God!
And change your future!

Food For Thought August 2, 2008
God's Plans for you provide Hope and a Future.
Don't allow problems to remain as illusions in your mind.
Fret, doubt and worry corrode the channel of the flow of Holy Spirit
If unchecked they will block the channel.
You are in this world
But you are not of this world.
God desires to elevate you to a place
where your worries will be a distant memory.
Do not surrender the control of you life over to fears or foes.
Replace negative words and thoughts such as "IMPOSSIBLE"
with wise words of Jesus such as...... If thou canst believe,
all things are POSSIBLE to him that believeth. Mark 9:23.
Your happiness depends on what you believe.
This is why it is so important that what you are believing
is based on the TRUTH.
In every area of your life, what you believe makes all the difference.
Let Go and let God take over!
Then, He will turn everything around for your good
Put everything in GOD'S hands and
IT SHALL BE WELL!

God's Hate List
Seven Things God Hates
Proverbs 6:16-19
These Six Things doth the Lord hate:
yea seven are an abomination to Him:
(1) A proud look
(2) A lying tongue and
(3) Hands that shed innocent blood
(4) An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations
(5) Feet that be swift in running to mischief
(6) A false witness that speaketh lies
(7) And he that soweth discord among the brethren.
Seven Sins Of The Wicked
Proverbs 6:12-15
A naughty person, a wicked man,
walketh with a froward mouth,
He winketh with his eyes,
he speaketh with his feet,
he teacheth with his fingers,
Frowardness is in his heart,
he deviseth mischief continually; he soweth discord.
Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly;
Suddenly shall he be broken without remedy.
Vengeance is the Lord's He will repay everyone's just due
(whatever that is in God's sight) in due season.
What shall we then say to these things,
If God be for us who can be against us? Romans 8:31
We ARE TO rejoice because our names are written in heaven.
We ARE NOT to rejoice because the spirits are subject to us.
We ARE NOT to rejoice at anyone's calamity.
Beware of those who
(1) "Say" and "do not"
(2) Judge
(3) Criticize and condemn others
(4) Who are full of pride and an evil eye
(5) Attempt to take dominion over you for God is to be over all and it is His desire to be IN all.
(6) Speak death over others.... especially when they have given a word and the other person did not obey. (7) Exalt themselves for they shall be abased according to the Words of Jesus Christ of Nazareth!
GOD says what He means and means what He says.
He has no respect of persons.
He is the Lord
He changes not.
Casting down principalities, powers, imaginations and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and God's plan for our life, I remain

The Warriors Creed
I am a part of the fellowship
of the unashamed.
I have Holy Spirit power.
The die has been cast.
I have stepped over the line.
The decision has been made.
I am a disciple of His.
I won't look back,
let up, slow down,
back away or be still.
My past is redeemed.
My present makes sense.
My future is secure.
I'm finished and done with low living,
sight walking, small planning, smooth knees,
colorless dreams, tamed visions,
mundane talking and cheap living.
I no longer need preeminence,
position, promotions or popularity.
I don't have to be recognized, praised,
regarded or rewarded.
I now live by faith,
lean on His presence,
walk by patience,
live by prayer and labor by love.
My face is set.
My gait is fast.
My mission is clear.
My goal is heaven.
My road is narrow.
My way rough.
My companions few.
My guide reliable.
I cannot be bought, compromised, detoured.
lured away, lured back, deluded or delayed.
With God's help I will NOT flinch
in the face of sacrifice,
hesitate in the presence of the adversary,
negotiate at the table of the enemy,
ponder at the pool of popularity
or meander in the maze of mediocrity.
I won't give up, shut up,
or let up until I have stayed up,
stored up, prayed up, paid up
and preached up for the cause of Christ.
I am a disciple of Jesus.
I must go till He comes.
Give till I drop.
Work till He stops me.
Preach till all know
and when He comes
He will have no problem recognizing me
for my banner will be clear.

Food For Thought July 29, 2008
Greetings in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth!
Recently a minister asked me
"Do you have enemies?"
I responded "I guess I do."
Well that statement should have been...
"Yes I do. DO you?"
The WORD Of GOD speaks clearly regarding enemies which
fight against the PLAN OF GOD and DIVINE ASSIGNMENTS
of all who are true servants of GOD
We as servants of God must recognize that satan is our enemy.
and that Jesus also warned us to beware of men in Matthew 10:17, 18
Today, this Food for Thought has a mission and purpose to
remind us that our enemy is anyone who attempts to hinder or
sabotage the assignment and plans GOD has revealed for our life.
An enemy is also anyone who weakens our mpassion for our future
and our dream. Galatians 5:7-9. (I could write out the scriptures,
however I feel led to just give the reference so you can look them up.)
Servants who are SENT OF GOD, are sent forth as sheep in
the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents and
harmless as doves. Matthew 10:16
This day... I pray that God reveal to you with total clarity, beyond a
shadow of a doubt, the REAL and TRUE GOD SENT SERVANTS
and also on any/all wolves that are influencing your life. Remember,
those whom God sends SPEAKS THE WORD of GOD and the SPIRIT
is given without measure unto GOD SENT servants.
Stay tuned to the loving voice of the Holy Spirit who reminds you
of your TRUE identity. He is your Holy Ghost coach and He speaks
only when you listen.
One thing is for sure, He desires your ultimate victory, so don't let any
'wolf' tell you anything different. No person, place or one thing can
separate you from God's love. Hebrew 13-5-6 The devil comes to steal,
kill and destroy, but Jesus came that you might have life and that you
may have life more abundantly. (John 10:10)
My prayer for you is that you are enjoying abundant life TODAY to the
full to the overflow in Jesus name.
In His Service.

FOOD For THOUGHT ... July 26, 2008
Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly
above all that we ask or think, according to the power
that worketh in us, Unto him be glory in the church by
Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end.
Ephesians 3:20, 21
Satanic forces tremble and they bow down at the name of
JESUS CHRIST of Nazareth!
When we diligently take heed and obey the Word of God
if satan comes one way he will have to flee seven ways.
God will never be made ashamed. Neither will His children
be made ashamed that WAIT for Him.
Though GOD WAITS, He gives those who WAIT for Him
double for our shame.
God is always Victorious. He makes those that are heirs
of salvation VICTORIOUS every time.
God creates bridges out of troubles.
When our mind is stayed upon the Lord, He gives perfect peace.

(18) And therefore, will the Lord wait that He may be gracious unto you, and therefore will he be exalted, that he may have mercy upon you: for the Lord is a God of judgment: blessed are they that wait for him.
(19) And the people shall dwell in Zion at Jerusalem: thou shalt weep no more: he will be very gracious unto thee at the voice of they cry, when he shall hear it, he will answer thee.
(20) And though the Lord give you the bread of adversity, and the water of affliction (trouble), yet shall not thy teachers be removed into a corner anymore, but thine eyes shall see thy teachers:
(21) And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye go to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.
As you WAIT, may you hear the Specific Word directly from the LORD to lead, guide and direct you so that you may stay on the shiny path that the LORD has set before you. GOD bless you.

WE MUST TESTIFY! WE ARE OVERCOMERS IN JESUS NAME!
NEHEMIAH ENDURED and OVERCOME
Seven Fold Opposition To Rebuilding the Wall at Jerusaleum.
(1) Anger Nehemiah 4:1
(2) Ridicule Nehemiah 4:1-3
(3) Conspiracy and war Nehemiah 4:7 and 8
(4) Continual threatening Nehemiah 4:10-23
(5) Craftiness Nehemiah 6:1-4
(6) Accusation Nehemiah 6:5-9
(7) Treachery Nehemiah 6:10-14
We can relate to all of these things. Can you? If so, be encouraged. Hold Fast! When a servant of the LORD has a burden or desire, and is willing and submissive to do 'anything' for the LORD, the devil sets out to delay, hinder and completely stop us, but we CAN do all things through Christ who strengthens us. We are made overcomers through the Blood of the Lamb and the Word of our testimony.
What shall we then say to these things, If God be for us who shall be against us? (ROMANS 8:31) No weapon that is formed against us shall prosper and every tongue that rises against us shall we condemn for this is heritage of the servants of the LORD and our righteous is of Him, saith the Lord (Isaiah (54:17)
We know there is a GOD. HE is the only true and loving GOD. HE is our GOD! Let GOD be true and every man a liar. Vengeance belongs to the LORD and HE will repay. HE sees all and judges all. HE says to touch not HIS anointed and do His prophets no harm.
Look up and rejoice. And again I say rejoice. GOD sees you and all that pertains to you. All will receive your just due in due season in JESUS name!

It Is So Sweet To Trust In JESUS
Food For Thought .. July 17, 2008
The higher you fly in life, the less dead weight you can carry.
Refuse to listen to the words of fear that tries to cut you from
within and without through the doubters around you.
Jesus said .. HE will never leave us or forsake us, so we may
boldly say, "The Lord is my helper and I will not fear what man shall
do unto me."
Stay tuned to the loving voice of the Holy Spirit and He will continually
remind you of your TRUE identity.
He is the Holy Ghost coach who desires your ultimate victory, however
He only speaks when you listen.
People, places and things who surround you influence what you will
become and what you will accomplish.
It is so sweet to trust in JESUS.....And to take HIM at HIS WORD!

Is Your Fat In The Boiling Pot?
Boiled Down and Officially Competent
Is your fat in the 'boiling pot'
Are you "going through" and/or "waiting" for a Word from the Lord to lead and guide you? Are you seemingly challenged on every side, misunderstood, persecuted in any way "for the gospel's sake", forsaken, and/or ostracized for reasons unknown to you? If any of this apply's to you, look up and rejoice! Do not let satan put you down, falsely accuse you or place false responsibility on you. Search the scriptures for yourself (John 5:39, John 14:26, II Timothy 2:15) and see what the WORD of God says regarding your particular situation.
If you are a Believer who has invited Jesus Christ of Nazareth to be your Saviour, you have been 'called' to 'carry on' with the Great Commission (Matthew 28:18-20, Mark 16:15-20). When you submit to your 'call', you are a 'chosen' vessel. You must be ENABLED by the HOLY SPIRIT to accomplish your God given assignments, for you can do nothing within yourself, your power, or your strength. However you CAN do all things through Christ which strengthens you. (Philippians 4:13)
Paul wrote....I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. Romans 12:1-2
To prove what is the good and acceptable will of God, we begin by allowing Holy Spirit renew our mind, open our spiritual eyes and ears and give our heads (mind, eyes, ears, nose, mouth) a Holy Ghost 'makeover'. (I will elaborate more on this at another time)
When I began to study and meditate on being 'ENABLED By The Holy Spirit', I found that one of the definitions for ENABLED is 'TO RENDER'. Definitions for RENDER are 'BOILED DOWN and QUALIFIED' and also 'To GIVE OFFICIALLY.'
Holy Spirit took me back in my memory to when I was a little girl living on a farm. My parents raised as much of our food as possible, including meat. In the fall, some of the pigs were killed, cut up and prepared (enabled) so they would qualify for food which we would eat all winter. Hams and shoulders were cured. Some of the meat was put into a grinder and became sausage. And the fat (and I don't remember what else) was put into a big black 'boiling pot' on an outside furnace that Daddy had built.
Moma would make the fire hot under the 'boiling pot'. She would say she was 'rendering' the lard. After awhile she would strain what was in the boiling pot through a cloth (probably a feed sack). A beautiful, clear liquid would flow through the cloth. Not one speck of anything was in it. Next the liquid had to cool. The fat and any other by products that Moma had placed in the 'boiling pot' had to go through the COMPLETE PROCESS in order to become an almost snow white solid known as PURE LARD. It was now QUALIFIED, COMPETENT and ENABLED to be USED as PURE LARD in the delicious (and FIT to EAT) biscuits, cakes, pie crusts, cookies, etc. that Moma made.
Is your fat in the 'boiling pot' Are you being 'rendered' (enabled) by the Holy Spirit? In order to do what God has called you to do, you must go through a "process' to be qualified as competent and to be enabled to carry out your divine assignment. Think it not strange at the fiery trial which comes to try you as though some strange thing happened to you. Let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. (James 1:4)
When you come to the knowledge that you are being "Enabled by the Holy Spirit", you can rejoice in the fires as you are BOILED DOWN and QUALIFIED by HOLY SPIRIT through HIS special process, so that you may become Officially Competent to "Do', to "Be' and to "Accomplish' everything that God wants you to 'Do', to 'Be', and to 'Accomplish'!

How Is Your LOVE Walk?
FOOD FOR THOUGHT
June 9, 2008
How does the LOVE of GOD in you compare to the LOVE GOD has for us?
John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth on him should not perish, but have every lasting life.
Luke 10:2 Therefore he said unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth laborers into his harvest.
Colossians 3:23-25
(23) And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily as unto the Lord, and not unto men;
(24) Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ.
(25) But he that doest wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done, and there is no respect of persons.
Ecclesiastes 9:11-12
(11) Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with all thy might; for there is no work, not device, nor knowledge or nor wisdom, whither thou goest.
(12) I returned, and saw under the sun, the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favor to men of skill, but time and chance happeneth to them all.
Ecclesiastes 9:13-15
(13) This wisdom have I seen also under the sun, and it seemed great unto me:
(14) There was a little city, and few men within it; and there came a great man against it and besieged it, and built great bulwarks against it:
(15) Now there was found in it a poor wise man, and he by his wisdom delivered the city; yet no man remembered that poor wise man.
Ecclesiastes 9:16
(16) Then said I, Wisdom is better that strength, nevertheless the poor man's wisdom is despised, and his words are not heard.
(17) The words of wise men are heard in quiet more than the cry of him that ruleth among fools.
(18) Wisdom is better than weapons of war, but one sinner destroyeth much good.
Knowledge and keen discernment reveals that reveals Jesus is coming soon! Wisdom teaches us to LIVE READY, and to do that which we can to get others into the ark of safety.
TRUE KINGDOM BUILDERS ... We must work while it is day for night cometh when no man can work!
If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. II Chronicles 7:14

Sowing GREAT Seeds
Sowing GREAT Seeds of the WORD of God, Sowing GREAT Seeds of the LOVE of God, Sowing GREAT Seeds of kindness, Sowing GREAT Seeds of money too!
Every Seed we Sow has the potential of becoming a GREAT seed. Be not deceived. God is not mocked. For whatsoever a man soweth, that shall HE also reap. Galatians 6:7
Issac sowed in a strange land in a time of famine. In the same year he received a hundred fold. God blessed him so great, Abmilech, the King of the Philistines, told him to leave the land. He was ostracized. Genesis 26 1-16
I am a witness that you may be "ostracized" as the favor and blessings of God overtake you, but have no fear... you can also be the happiest, most peaceful and most blessed "ostracized" person you know, if you continue to Sow GREAT seeds!
Sow GREAT seeds.
They will grow.
You will reap

Sow as you purpose in your heart
Luke 6:38
Give and it shall be given unto you: good measure, pressed down, and shaken together; and running over, shall men give unto your bosom. For with the same measure ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.
II Corinthians 9:6-10
(6) But this I say, He that soweth sparingly, shall also reap sparingly; and he that soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully.
(7) Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give, not grudgingly, or of necessity, for God loveth a cheerful giver.
(8) And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye always having all sufficiency in all things may abound to every good work:
(9) As it is written, He hath dispersed abroad; he hath given to the poor: his righteousness remaineth forever.
(10) Now he that ministereth seed to the sower both minister bread for your food, and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness.

God gives Seed to the Sower and bread to the eater
Isaiah 55:8-13
(8) For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord.
(9) For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
(10) For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower and bread to the eater:
(11) So shall my seed be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the place whereto I sent it.
(12) For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace; the mountains and the hills shall break forth before thee into singing, and all trees of the fields shall clap their hands.
(13) Instead of the thorn tree shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to the Lord for a great name, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.
Give and it shall be given unto you
Luke 6:38
Give and it shall be given unto you, good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over, shall men give unto your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete, withal it shall be measured to you again.

Don't Stop Sowing GREAT Seeds!
Ecclesiastes 11:1-6
(1) Cast thy bread upon the waters: for thou shalt find it after many days.
(2) Give a portion to seven, and also to eight. for thou knowest not what evil shall be upon the earth.
(3) If the clouds be full of rain, they empty themselves upon the earth: and if the tree falleth toward the south or toward the north, in the place where the tree falleth, there it shall be.
(4) He that observeth the wind shall not sow; and he that regardeth the clouds shall not reap.
(5) As thou knowest not the way of thr Spirit, nor how the bones do grow in the womb of her that is with child: even so thou knowest not the works of God who maketh all.
(6) In the morning sow thy seed, and in the evening withhold not thine hand: for thou knowest not whether shall prosper, either this or that, or whether they both shall be alike good.

Put Pressure on Pressure!
Greetings to you this beautiful day. All things have been created for you. Enjoy! Enjoy! Enjoy!
You are blessed to be a blessing! Use your gifts, talents for His Honor, His glory and His praise. Pour HIM out into this earth! As you pour HIM out and bless others, HE will continue to pour back into you in the form of your need, regardless of what it is!. As it is written, surely goodness and mercy shall follow me/you all the days of my/our life.
How good and how awesome GOD is. When we share by the Spirit, as HE leads us, and also when we receive what another shares which He has sent our way by email or otherwise, GOODNESS and MERCY is chasing HIS children down to bless, motivate, strengthen, and encourage us!
Sharing His love, goodness and tender mercy changes the atmosphere. The effects never cease. That which HE sends by HIS Spirit will not return unto Him void. It will accomplish what HE pleases. No one and nothing can stop HIM from accomplishing what HE pleases. Hallelujah!
Put PRESSURE on PRESSURE. If the enemy is compassing you about on every side and you don't know what to do, put more pressure on him than he is putting on you. To do this, be persistent in using your spiritual weapons and the spiritual authority and victory that Jesus Christ of Nazareth has already won and delegated to you. Persistence wears out resistance and you emergethe winner when you don't faint!
This is a new day! Putting the past behind, press toward the mark so that you may win the prize of the high calling in Jesus Christ that has been assigned to you.

Live Ready!
Greetings in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth!,
We all need to LIVE READY for we know not at what hour our Lord will return or when He may call us home. Prayer changes things. Men (women too) ought always to pray. The WORD instructs us to work out our own salvation with fear and trembling before the Lord. The parable of the Ten Virgins is one of the best examples and instructions on LIVING READY!
There is so much Kingdom Business to take care of, so much work to do. A Kingdom divided cannot stand. In Ephesians 4:11-13 the WORD reveals that HE has given some apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers; for the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the Body of Christ Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ.
GOD has no respect of persons. God can work any way HE desires through anyone and also use anything for His purpose. However, if any one puts themselves up or the way the minister, over others (which is exalting themselves), BEWARE. Pride goes before a fall. God does not tolerate haughty and high mindedness very long. BE careful and take heed that you be NOT deceived. Anyone that exalt themselves, trying to convince people they have something no one else has, will surely be abased.
I am reminded as I write of a time when the disciples came to Jesus talking about some who were casting out devils in His name. MY understanding is that Jesus basically said to them, to let them alone for no one can lightly speak in His name and do mighty miracles in His name.
Now when I ministered on this several years ago, I remember that the SPIRIT spoke to me that God is the judge and when a servant gets out of line, GOD will bring correction to them in His way and His time. Also that regardless of how the HOW or BY WHOM WORD of GOD gets out, it shall not return unto HIM void, but the WORD of GOD, once put into the earthly realm, will accomplish what HE pleases and none can stop the WORD. Hallelujah!
Have a blessed day! LIVE READY for you know not at which hour the LORD cometh!

There is so much Kingdom Business to take care of, so much work to do. A Kingdom divided cannot stand. In Ephesians 4:11-13 the WORD reveals that HE has given some apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers; for the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the Body of Christ Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ.
GOD has no respect of persons. God can work any way HE desires through anyone and also use anything for His purpose. However, if any one puts themselves up or the way the minister, over others (which is exalting themselves), BEWARE. Pride goes before a fall. God does not tolerate haughty and high mindedness very long. BE careful and take heed that you be NOT deceived. Anyone that exalt themselves, trying to convince people they have something no one else has, will surely be abased.
I am reminded as I write of a time when the disciples came to Jesus talking about some who were casting out devils in His name. MY understanding is that Jesus basically said to them, to let them alone for no one can lightly speak in His name and do mighty miracles in His name.
Now when I ministered on this several years ago, I remember that the SPIRIT spoke to me that God is the judge and when a servant gets out of line, GOD will bring correction to them in His way and His time. Also that regardless of how the HOW or BY WHOM WORD of GOD gets out, it shall not return unto HIM void, but the WORD of GOD, once put into the earthly realm, will accomplish what HE pleases and none can stop the WORD. Hallelujah!
Have a blessed day! LIVE READY for you know not at which hour the LORD cometh!
In His service,
Opal Dalton

Blessed To Be A Blessing
NOTE from Opal: On Monday May 5, 2008
I was interceding in prayer for approximately 30 minutes
from 5:30pm until 6:00pm when suddenly I said "Now Heavenly
Father I have said enough. I am going to get a paper and pen and not say anything else until I hear and write down what you say to me."IMMEDIATELY He began to speak to me so fast I could hardly write.
I must share these words. I can't not keep them only to myself because they are not my words....... Perhaps they are for you too. Holy Spirit has let me know that you will know when you read them if they are for you, because they will minister to you as they have to me.
Quite often when ministering to others, prophecy in rhyme flows out of my mouth as well as prophecy in song. Perhaps God will send His Spirit to sing the words to you.
I pray for God to bless you greatly.
I remain in His service, Opal
==================================================
Blessed To Be A Blessing
Troubles come.
Troubles go.
I am with you
And want you to know.
Don't look to the left
Don't look to the right.
Look straight ahead.
Keep me in your sight.
Focus on good things
And good times too.
Count your many giant heads.
Haven't I always come through for you?
I've moved by my Spirit
This very hour.
Your battles are ALL won
But not by your might or your power.
Trust me right NOW.
Have ears to hear what I say.
The devils defeated.
This very day.
You will see and know
I have spoken to you.
I will prove it
Before the days through.
You're blessed going in
You're blessed going out.
You'll shout and you'll sing
Saying "I have no doubt!"
Your faith has been tried
You've passed the test.
I've taken over now,
I'm giving you my best.
The sun is shining brightly.
So are you shining for me.
The time has come.
All will know I'm smiling on thee.
Through good times and bad
You've held on I see.
You're steadfast and unnmoveable
A tree of righteousness for me.
Your branches offer life
For all who will receive.
Go forth in my might.
Help those who will believe.
This day my daughter
You see so clear.
And I have lovingly
Wiped away every tear.
Joy and Laughter
Is in your soul.
Go forth rejoicing
I've made you whole.
You'll feel my river of life flowing
In every fiber of your being.
The pounds will drop off.
You won't believe what you're seeing.
I bless you to be a blessing
For my honor and glory.
Now everywhere I send you
Just go and tell my story.
