Mona's Dev.: Morning Prayers and Thanksgiving Nov. 22, 2020

11/23/2020

Comments

 
November 22, 2020 
It's hard for me to grasp that it is the end of November and close to the end of 2020. It has
been a journey, adventure, a challenge and year of growing strong in the Lord and standing on His truths. So many changes and so, so many people are hurting right now. Prayer has taken on a deeper meaning for me as I continue to pray for our country, our church, our family and for friends all around the world. The tension, the stress, the attacks, the confusion and the list continues. Life went to a new level of commitment in the last 9 months. It's not necessarily a bad thing that we have gotten the opportunity to go deeper and higher in Him. The negativity and lies we are dealing with is a bad thing but we are overcomers in Christ!!! 

This past week my heart was so much on praying for those struggling in so many ways. We were praying for the family of a 37 year old lady who was killed in a car accident. It was so tragic and left behind 2 little kids and a husband besides her extended family. Another couple lost their son in a motorcycle accident. Many, many marriages are on the edge of giving up. Oh how my heart aches for these people. Some of our church family have received negative Dr reports. The pandemic is causing havoc with businesses and people's livelihood. The fear level is heading back up higher than ever now with the political uncertainties to add to it. People are just getting weary of all the unknowns that continue in every area of life for the last 9 months.
 
One of my favorite verses is Isaiah 50:4 and actually I would say it's the verse that I feel is my call on life. "The Lord Yahweh has equipped me with the anointed, skillful tongue of a 
teacher-to know how to speak a timely word to the weary. Morning by morning, he awakens my heart. He opens my ears to hear his voice, to be trained to teach." 
Isaiah 50:4 

My heart is to speak a timely word to the weary and hear the Lord direct me morning by morning. I hear the Lord speak to my heart about how to pray for others every morning. I love mornings. The darkness of the night becomes so bright and alive as the light fills the sky every morning. It's a time I feel so close to the Lord. It's a new day, a new time, a new opportunity. 

"If you wait at wisdom's doorway, longing to hear a word for every day, joy will break forth within you as you listen for what I'll say. For the fountain of life pours into you every time that you find me, and this is the secret of growing in the delight and the favor of the Lord." Proverbs 8:34-35 

The Lord longs to give us a word every day and I believe He does speak to each of our hearts even if we are not listening. Many times He speaks a word to me that is so hard to see possible. Right there I should know where my issue is because I am looking and not walking by faith. This is what I heard and read this week: Do you have situations that look (sight) outwardly impossible and visibly seem to remain immoveable? God has called us to have faith that defiantly resists impossibilities.

"And without faith living within us it would be impossible to please God. For we come to God in faith knowing that he is real and that he rewards the faith of those who give all their passion and strength into seeking him." Hebrews 11:6 

As I read I realized how often I spend so much of my time trying to come up with an answer or solution and I am asking for His wisdom but I am asking from the perspective of what I see or what looks possible. I get to leaning on my own understanding. I know that faith is powerful and doesn't give in to what is seems impossible and immoveable. Actually, every seemingly impossible situation has to bow in the name of Jesus when I command it to. I have all authority over every situation in my life and many times I bow to the situation instead of commanding it to bow in the name of Jesus. Some situations and circumstances are harder than others and instead of continuing to take my authority, believe in faith and speak life and the truth I find myself living in or almost giving up to what I see. I'm so thankful that the Lord  reminds me daily that I am an overcomer and a victor in Him and all things are possible to him so believes!!

"Every single moment you are thinking of me! How precious and wonderful to consider that you cherish me constantly in your every thought! O God, your desires toward me are more than the grains of sand on every shore! When I awake each morning, you re still with me." Psalm 139:17-18

The steadfast love of the LORD never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness." Lamentations 3:22-23

One of the greatest ways to keep our heart and mind on the Lord and living in His presence is to have a heart of thanksgiving. We all know this and we all know the fruit of a life of thanksgiving. At this time of year and especially this year we are even more aware of the value of being thankful. It's our lifeline to His heart and love. Everything does look possible when we are thankful.

"Keep on giving your thanks to God, for he is so good! His constant, tender love lasts forever!" Psalm 118:1

"Sing out with songs of thanksgiving to the Lord! Let's sing our praises with melodies overflowing!" Psalm 147:7

"Singing: "Amen! Praise and glory, wisdom and thanksgiving, honor, power, and might belong to our God forever and ever! Amen!" Revelation 7:12

This year your Thanksgiving may look different on the outside. You may not get to be with your family or loved ones. But on the inside it can be the greatest, most life changing day so far this year. Every day is an opportunity to draw closer to Him, to hear Him and "to know how to speak a timely word to the weary." Your heart full of thanksgiving longing to hear from the Lord and pray for someone who doesn't know or understand love can change a life forever.

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving Day however you celebrate it. You may be without much family or you may be surrounded by family - either way take the time to cherish Him and all you are thankful for. Take communion and remember and thank Him for all He has done and given you. There is not enough minutes in the day to thank Him for all His love for you.

I'm adding a PS. After writing this I had a great opportunity to practice what I am preaching. Our dog, Summer, is doing pretty well with her surgeries but her rear end is so sore since she is not able to have control of all of her functions yet she has red bottom issues. She was struggling so much last night. I sat on the couch watching her pant in pain and looked at the redness on her bottom and got into fear. Do I need to take her to the vet? Can I leave her to go to church? Then the Lord reminded me of what I had just written. It's amazing how fast fear creeps in especially at night. So I decided to not to look at her and take authority over the situation. If everything I have belongs to the Lord then she is His dog and He definitely wants her healed and whole. I prayed, I commanded pain to be gone and healing to come to her body and we made it through the night. The night was rough and I woke up hourly to check her and pray. This morning she is resting calmly. The Lord showed me what to feed her to give her body a chance to he.al a bit. If I focus on the issue or try to figure it out myself fear will come in. I 'm thankful for His love and that He guides me in everything including my animals. I'm thankful for the word He gave me this week for such a time.as this. Her bottom is still red but it's not hurting as bad and I will not give up or give in and will continue to speak life to every part of our Summer girl.

Mona's Devotional: Summer's Home! – November 15, 2020

​November l 5, 2020
Today as I sit lo write to you I don't know what to share. This week has been emotionally draining. I didn't gel any great new revelations since all I desire to do Is come Into His presence to rest and praise Him. My revelation of the last few days Is the power of resting In Him thanking Him In everything.

We were able to bring Summer home on Tuesday. She was so happy to see us but still on lots of meds for her pain so a bit disoriented. The Dr wasn't ready for her to leave since she wanted to watch her a couple more days and we understood that. However, the cost of the Dr watching her is so expensive we knew we could take care of her and she would heal better here. She's doing so well. No more diarrhea, swelling Is going down and she loves her new "ortho" dog bed, a gift from a sweet friend. She's eating, drinking and letting me put pills down her. She can find a pill in anything thing you give her! She refuses to eat one on her own and knows the procedure means my hand going down her throat but she doesn't care☺. Our only Issue Is getting her up and taking her out without something hurting. It's mostly about the sling we don't have yet that will help with her back end. She had so much road rash from the accident that her groin area Is raw and anything we try to lift her with hurts. But we are making progress and she is so stubborn she absolutely refuses to help us in any way.☺ She's a character. She lets me lift her by her harness to get the "sling" we have now under her and doesn't even try to stand up. But we are so thankful she is here and that the Lord is showing us and guiding us in how to care for her. Right now someone has to be with her so we are taking turns going out to do things and it's working for this week. Next week and beyond He will give us the plan.

This week the Lord reminded me that the words of my mouth are life or death. He spoke to my heart that impossibilities are only possible In my unbelief. His Word says in Matthew 19:26 - "But what seems impossible to you Is never Impossible to God!" I know all things are possible with Him and that nothing is impossible. Our common sense, our natural minds try to determine what's possible and impossible. We actually know deep down inside His ways are higher than ours but sometimes we just don't know how to let go and trust Him with some of our life's issues.

One of the greatest challenges we often face is the dread of what may come. There's a fear of what may or may not happen in our lives. The enemy is trying to plant a fear that God isn't as good as we may think. The enemy's lies kill our hope, steal our trust in the Lord and crushes our trust to receive His unconditional love. So much of the world and religion believes that God is in control of our situations and lives so find themselves living in dread of what our Father is going to do next. This is happening in many people with the election. It's not time to get in fear about what may happen but to believe His Word and speak life. Life comes when we KNOW what the goodness of God is and expect His goodness to be in every area of our lives.

"Do not yield to fear, for I am always near. Never turn your gaze from me, for I am your faithful God. I will infuse you with my strength and help you in every situation. I will hold you firmly with my victorious right hand.'" Isaiah 41:10

We need to pay attention to what we think about. The Lord told me I need to pay attention and to let nothing go unchecked. This is like I shared a couple weeks ago about the age of distraction. Our focus needs to be on Him and Him only right now, actually always, so we can continue to live each day in His presence with His peace and hope. I am to be aware of my thoughts so I can surrender the negative ones to Him. Any fears, unforgiveness, offenses, incorrect thoughts of my identity I need to bring into the light. He cares about my every thought. This will bring breakthrough and freedom. As I started to think about my words and thoughts I realized how negative some of my thoughts were especially in times of exhaustion. I wasn't thinking about it but realized many of my thoughts and words about different situations were actually cursing. He said to me, "Anything that is negative is speaking a curse to that situation or person."

"Your words are so powerful that they will kill or give life, and the talkative person will reap the consequences." Proverbs 18:21

The other day I read this - Everything you need His love has provided. Never underestimate the power that was released through the cross. An unlimited supply of His goodness was accomplished at the cross. Healing, forgiveness, shame, fear, anger were taken care of when Jesus gave His ALL - His life for us on the cross. Hope, favor, love, peace, joy, forgiveness are ours for the taking. We just have to receive it from Him all through faith. If He didn't withhold the gift of salvation for all eternity, why would He withhold what we need during our temporary stay on earth? His love is relevant and applies to every area of our life. There is nothing too great, too small, too mundane that is not affected by the power of His love!

I think more than anything this week I've let fear creep in. Are we doing right? How did we get to this place? What is next? Did we make a mistake putting Sumer through this? But day by day, moment by moment He gives me peace and whispers songs or verses into my heart that let me know that the answers to my questions are not important or necessary. All I need is to rest in Him.

"And everything I've taught you is so that the peace which is in me will be in you and will give you great confidence as you rest in me. For in this unbelieving world you will experience trouble and sorrows, but you must be courageous, for I have conquered the world!" John 16:33

I have focused on being thankful and praising Him. A couple of my sweetest friends will send me songs that lift my heart and I just praise Him in every situation.

"Let everyone give all their praise and thanks to the Lord! Here's why - he's better than anyone could ever imagine. Yes, he's always loving and kind, and his faithful love never ends." Psalm 107:1

So lift your hands and give thanks to God for his marvelous kindness and for his miracles of mercy for those he loves!" Psalm 107:15

"Always giving thanks to God the Father for all things, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;" Ephesians 5:20

Praises and thanksgiving actually break the curse, break through walls and barriers we cannot get through. Our words of thanksgiving opens the heavens and brings miracles in the darkest times. The Lord has promised us that entering into an attitude of praise and thanksgiving will lift the burden, bring miracles, bring freedom, release pain and brings us into His presence. The power of praise is greater than anything we know or will ever experience. That is Who He is and Who He wants to be in us.

"Let everyone give all their praise and thanks to the Lord! Here's why - he's better than anyone could ever imagine. Yes, he's always loving and kind, and his faithful love never ends. So, go ahead-let everyone know it! Tell the world how he broke through and delivered you from the power of darkness and has gathered us together from all over the world. He has set us free to be his very own! So lift your hands and give thanks to God for his marvelous kindness and for his miracles of mercy for those he loves!" Psalm 107:1-3 Passion Bible

Take time to think about your words - your heart. Do your words represent Him as powerful, kind, loving and worthy of praise and thanksgiving always? We are thankful the Lord is guiding us and that our family and friends are well. We praise His name and trust Him in everything. Ed and I are doing well working together in this challenging time. When we hear Summer cry in pain it hurts us but we continue to ask the Lord to guide us together and speak His Life. If we can really grasp and receive the power that comes from praise and thanksgiving we would never want to grumble and complain again. Freeing power. Healing power. Praise and thanksgiving is greater than any force. That is my desire!

"Let everyone thank God, for he is good, and he is easy to please!
  His tender love for us continues on forever!
Give thanks to God, our King over all gods!
  His tender love for us continues on forever!
Give thanks to the Lord over all lords!
  His tender love for us continues on forever!
Give thanks to the only miracle working God!
  His tender love for us continues on forever!
Give thanks to the Creator who made the heavens with wisdom!
  His tender love for us continues on forever! " Psalms 136:1-5

Mona's Devo: Summer and Elections – November 8, 2020

November 8, 2020
This has been quite the week. I don’t even know where to start with what my heart has experienced as I’m sure most of us can say. You’ve prayed fervently for our country and the election for the last many months. Myself, I continue to believe and stand on the promises, the prophesies, the words He has given us to believe in faith. It’s definitely not over by a long shot. It’s so refreshing reading the posts and texts of so many of our friends and hear they are experiencing the same peace as we are. We will stand for what we believe the Lord has shown us and not give up or give in.
 
The Lord has spoken so much to me in the last 7 days. We’ve been faced with challenges that have caused us to go deeper in Him. It may not seem like a big deal but it was for us. Let me tell you about it. Last Saturday, October 31, we were having a good morning as Ed was preparing to go the Legendary Bar Church we have once a month in a nearby city. I was preparing for the Harvest party and Chili contest we would be having that evening at church. As we had our breakfast and prayer time together we decided to pray for all the demonic stuff that happens on October 31. We are not afraid of that date as it is a day the Lord made and created and not the devils. But we realize so much evil happens on that day. Statically there are more younger people joining the satanic church these days than giving their lives to Jesus. We prayed, took our authority over it and was preparing for our great day in Him! Ed left to go to church and then seconds later was back in the house hollering that we needed to call the vet he had run over our dog, Summer. My heart stopped and I was beside myself for a moment and then ran out to check on her. She wasn’t right in front of his truck, not in a bad place but for some reason Ed had not seen her. I sat down beside her and stayed with her until the vet came. She definitely had some severe injuries. It was now approaching Saturday afternoon and Vet’s are open until noon. Our Vet felt it could be a broken pelvis which would need lots of time to heal. There was no way of knowing for sure until we could get an x-ray on Monday. Our niece is a Vet and she agreed to x-ray first thing Monday. We kept her comfortable and on pain meds. She did well but we knew she hurt. Monday Ed had her at the office for an x-ray at 8 am and that’s when the experience started. Her leg was broke pretty bad and needed surgery. My niece called around for an orthopedic surgeon and all the Vets she called were too busy or not wanting to mess with it. We found one surgeon in Denver who gave us a quote and we had a decision to make.
 
These are different times to start with, it’s a life changing election and we were praying for direction and wisdom. Summer is our 5 year old Great Pyrenees and the sweetest girl you have ever seen. She is a working dog as she protects our place. We also have a 12 year old Pyrenees. We lost our 15 year old sweet Molly dog last May and we still grieve her loss many days a week. We asked lots of questions and everyone we knew thought she could have a normal life with this surgery. We had her to the animal hospital by Monday night. Then the adventure began. She had her first surgery on Tuesday evening. We found out she was much worse than they had expected. We were on pins and needles waiting to hear how the surgery went. It was also Election Day so we spent the day in prayer! That evening we were in town and remembered what a very special friend and man of God had told us before, when things get tough throw yourself a party. So went to Texas Roadhouse to get our minds kinda off everything.
 
Surgery went well. But she now needed another surgery which was not in the quote. The next day they did her other leg and she was doing well for a while and then the pain became extreme again. She wasn’t doing as well. With the virus mandates we are not able to visit her and we knew that was what she needed. Daily we prayed for miracles, provision and wisdom. She has now been 4 days in an animal hospital and it is not cheap. Lord, did we miss it? Our only other choice was to put her down but we are getting into a lot of money right now. We prayed, we cried, we got into doubt and fear, we prayed more, cast the care on Him and stood in faith. At the same time all the Election stuff is going on but we kept our focus on what we knew in our hearts about the President and didn’t watch the media. Then on day 5 they decided they needed to do a CT scan to see what was happening. They also allowed us to come see her. She lit up when we came into the room and started to talk to us. We spent an hour with her and then the Dr let us know she needed another surgery. We are now 5 days in the hospital and 3 surgeries. Did we miss it? Now at the same time we are thankful for all the Lord had done, the many miracles and that this wasn’t a person. Today she had her 3rd surgery. They say she is fine. Very drugged up but peaceful and we are speaking she is on the road to healing. They are hoping she will be home on Monday or Tuesday. At the same time we are standing strong and praying for our country. Each day we had our challenges and understanding one another was right up at the top. The stress made us get a bit selfish at times.
 
The Lord was working on my heart. He was touching areas that could only be touched and recognized when I was facing the situations I was facing then. I have a call to pray, which we all do. Each of us have a call to minister in specific areas and I find myself praying and interceding hours a day sometimes. But in doing that I very often pick up the burden instead of coming along side of Him and partnering with Him. He’s never asked me to carry a burden in prayer but there are times it is so easy to pick up someone’s burden, my own burden, the country’s burden and try to carry the weight of it all. We’ve been praying for a country for months and now we are down to the wire. When it doesn’t look like I think it should after all the prayer in the Holy Spirit I start to wonder if I prayed enough, if I did enough, if I was being enough. It’s so easy for me to pick up a burden and try to pray it through in my own strength. I’m realizing that anytime I pick up a burden it automatically becomes something I am doing on my own. The burden isn’t mine to pick up so why do I think I need to handle it? I think it is something many of us try to do. Instead of praying in faith the prayer becomes a heavy burden that I carry around sometimes with feelings of doubt not faith. I know all this but when life happens so fast, furious and with instant decisions that need made I at times fall back into carrying the heavy burden. It’s easy to become overwhelmed with negative weight especially with family and friends and our country’s problems.
 
“Are you weary, carrying a heavy burden? Then come to me. I will refresh your life, for I am your oasis.  Simply join your life with mine. Learn my ways and you’ll discover that I’m gentle, humble, easy to please. You will find refreshment and rest in me. For all that I require of you will be pleasant and easy to bear.”  Matthew 11:28-30
It’s always His burden to carry and He always wants me to cast my cares on Him. “Pour out all your worries and stress upon him and leave them there, for he always tenderly cares for you.” 1 Peter 5:7 This is a verse I learned as a child but He has to remind me of His truth every now and then.
 
Then the Lord showed me how easy it is to get into whining when things aren’t happening like I know they are to be fulfilled through Him. The situation with our country has found me whining here and there. I have such a passion for others to see what is really going on in this world especially with the virus and fear deception. But in that passion I must stay in faith and not whine. The Israelites whined and complained themselves out of the Promise Land. I don’t want to do that. I’m thankful He reminds me of when I am doing that. This week there was some Righteous anger concerning the election but there was some whining and complaining too.  With Summer we got to whining and complaining about the hospital not answering their phones (they are extremely busy right now), the price, her situation changing often, feeling they weren’t take good care of her, knowing they must be ripping us off financially. Those times of complaining, doubting, carrying the burdens only caused us some strife, more confusion and more fear.
 
“Be well balanced and always alert, because your enemy, the devil, roams around incessantly, like a roaring lion looking for its prey to devour.” 1 Peter 5:8
The Word says to be alert. There’s an enemy that acts like a lion but we know the Lion of the Tribe of Judah.  When we are wallowing in our self-pity, our selfishness, bringing in strife and contentions we cannot be alert. The fake lion has no power, no authority and no business even trespassing in our lives. I know this and pray this for others but when we get run down, focused on the issue and exhausted we are not alert.
 
These were truths the Lord reminded of this week. I especially think the truth of not trying on my own hit the hardest. I seem to go there too often. Thinking I didn’t pray right or enough is nothing but works righteousness and I know that. I continually remind myself of who I am in Him. I know I am righteous in Him. Sometimes when I get overwhelmed that spirit of negative condemnation sneeks in before I realize it. Righteousness is our protection. I honestly praise Him daily for what He has done for me and given me and I will continue to do that no matter what is happening in this world. I hope this helped someone else also.  I know there’s a few more of “me” out there. Let’s just stand strong together and we are about to see some mighty miracles!

Summer dog is healed and whole in the Name of Jesus!!

Mona's Devo: Unmasked! – November 1, 2020

11/4/2020

November 1, 2020 
The Lord has been showing me so many things. I just love to send my time with Him and grow in wisdom. This has been a very hard year in so many ways and yet a year to grow closer to Him in faith, trust, hope, wisdom, truth. I'm going to share what He's been showing me this week and pray it blesses your heart and life like it does mine. 

Distractions! Oh my goodness the distractions in our world grow daily. Distractions that keep us from spending time with Him. Distractions that make us doubt His truth. They say this time in history is called the Age of Information and the Digital Age. It's also been called the Age of Distractions and Age of Confusion. That all makes perfect sense with all the technology and devices. The technology of cell phones has been a wonderful tool when used properly but has grown into a monster that distracts and confuses. All of us have been distracted by our phones. Phones are used to distract children and keep them quiet. The age of distractions and confusion is the enemy's greatest tool to distract us with things that appear vital, important, and maybe even urgent but they are taking us away from Him. 

This week I was reading something and saw the words unmask the lies. Unmask. That's powerful words that I would never appreciate or comprehend as much as now. Until we have spent ¾ of a year masked can we imagine what unmasked would look like. When we unmask or unveil something we then see it for what it truly is, nothing is hidden, It is brought into the light, the truth is completely visible, it is freedom. Now much of our State is going backwards and staying masked, hidden some more. After 8 months of what I think is a game of control they continue to regulate more. I wasn't surprised the virus peaked right before election and the family holidays. The enemy has successfully managed to keep families, grandchildren from grandma and grandpa and parents and adult children apart and sometimes at odds. People continue to follow and trust the government and believe what they hear from media.
 
If there a rise in Covid? Possibly. My goodness people have gone 8 months now covering their mouths and noses, not breathing properly and this effects the immune system. Our bodies were not created to breath covered up or God would have created us with masks! You don't think He understands viruses? He created within our bodies a wonderful, God designed filter system to keep out what could hurt us even Covid -19. God's will is health and so He created us to be able to have and walk in perfect health. Then people everywhere are stressed about life in general, school for the kids, providing and the election this week coupled with fear. Of course sickness is more likely. 

Unmask the lies! So many people cannot believe that other people can be evil enough to control like this and take away the rights of others. It's hard to understand people that have such evil hearts that they don't care how they get to where they want to go. Evil has been here since the moment the enemy deceived Adam and Eve. The enemy deceives people and people have evil, self-seeking motives because they are controlled by the evil one. This is why we must continue to pray for people, our leaders, and world leaders, whoever has some control and is being deceived by the enemy that their eyes will be open to see and believe the truth of Christ's love and what He did for them at the cross. 

This is the age of distraction and confusion. It's so clear this is true when we are looking from 
His perspective. Look at these verses in 2 Timothy 3:1-3, 7 that are titled Characteristics of the Last Days "But you need to be aware that in the final days the culture of society will become extremely fierce and difficult for the people of God. People will be self­
centered lovers of themselves and obsessed with money. They will boast of great 
things as they strut around in their arrogant pride and mock all that is right. They will ignore their own families. They will be ungrateful and ungodly. They will become 
addicted to hateful and malicious slander. Slaves to their desires, they will be ferocious belligerent haters of what is good and right. They are always learning but never dis􀀅over the revelation-knowledge of truth." 


This confusion and distraction has NO power over us because of the Blood of Jesus! Believers are feeling defeated, confused and distracted but that need not be. In His Name we are more than conquerors. In His Name we are overcomers! He has .given us EVERYTHING that pertains to Life and Godliness but it can only be found and experienced in Him. Intimacy with Him is where these truths are realized. We can't be distracted, confused or masked and experience the fullness of all He gave us at the cross. The enemy CANNOT come near your secret place with Jesus. It's totally impossible, We must remember the enemy is so indefinitely nothing compared to the majestic, everlasting, complete, absolute relationship we have with Jesus and our Father when we believe. Sitting at His feet and in His presence unmasks the glory of His love and truth. It's a place we never want to leave and we don't have to. It's the position He longs for us to be in always. (I want to say this, I'm not saying literally being unmasked necessarily because many have jobs where it is required. It's unmasking what you believe.) 

I believe with all my heart that this whole situation from March through now is a violation, direct assault and defiance against our God Almighty. NOTHING mandated is from Him but in direct defiance of all He is. It's made the government peoples protector, provider, healers and source of "truth". 

"The mighty Spirit of Lord Yahweh is wrapped around me because Yahweh has anointed me, as a messenger to preach good news to the poor. He sent me to heal the wounds of the brokenhearted, to tell captives, "You are free," and to tell prisoners, 
"Be free from your darkness." 
I am sent to announce a new season of Yahweh's grace and a time of God' recompense on his enemies, to comfort all who are in sorrow, to strengthen 
those crushed by despair who mourn in Zion-

to give them a beautiful bouquet in the place of ashes, 
the oil of bliss instead of tears, 
and the mantle of joyous praise 
instead of the spirit of heaviness. 
Because of this, they will be known as 
Mighty Oaks of Righteousness, 
planted by Yahweh as a living display of his glory." Isaiah 61:1-3 


I will close with some of my favorite love words from my heavenly Father. Let these soak in and know how much He is with us and cares! 
"You will be established in righteousness. Oppression-be far from them! Fear-be far 
from them! Yes, terror will not come near you, nor will you be afraid. If anyone dares 
yo stir up strife against you, it is not from me! Those who challenge you will go down
m defeat." Isaiah 54:14-15 

Also, continue to pray for the election. Millions of people have not voted yet and we can pray their eyes are open to His truths in the polls. Pray LIFE over our government! Speak that no weapon formed against this nation founded in God will prosper. We are the victors and our nation is under God and we declare that it will stay there. Thank you.
