NEW week

This memory thing seems to be getting harder. busyness overwhelms me lately. OMG!!! I just want to stop for a minute. This week I will be praying and asking God how much more does he want. I know he wants all of me and he is a jealous God, but when you pray without ceasing throughout the day, wake up to the spirits promting, walk in obedience(as best I can), how much more does he  want.  I want a little time too. where is the me time, does it exist anymore? feels like my head will expload. No one reads this anyways so now I am just basically journaling my frustration. Does living out a selfless life mean I cant have something for myself? Tell me this ,why when I do something to try and benefit myself does everything seem to fall apart afterwards.
Romans 8:20  For the Creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in  hopes that (v21) the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of God. 
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of Wisdom, God how I need wisdom right now. We are still working out our bodies of course along with this scripture memorization. What again oh God are my freedoms, why am I struggling lately? Wonder if anyone else feels this way.

NEw Post 10/5/10

Well I have truly been too busy to even talk to myself. Last night God really shook me up. I am using this blog as a tool for me to memorize Scripture. Over the last week my busy schedule has gotten in the way of my updates. I am happy to say I have been reading the word though. October is my favorite month by the way. It is my month for change. There is something special to me about the month of October that I cant really explain. God is drawing out the old ways, thoughts, and many parts of my past that dont need to be there. ( I did pray for this to happen) I am learning that when I let someones words bother me, I let it in! I am trying to take every thought captive. Is it ok if one person has a bad opinion about me? No one else seems to, just ONE. Why do we have to feel like we must make it better or change their mind just to feel some sort of comfort? We learned before from Paul and Timothy that they had to learn to be content in alll circumstances. How hard is this!!!!!!!
This week is focused on My city and My life. JAMES 1:27 Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after the orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by this world.  Our city is being positioned for transfirmation, the Religious spirit has been broken. Unity not division, pure and faultless religion we desire.
Praise God for His word

NEW MONTH

1 Corinthians 2:14 (New International Version)

¹⁴The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.


This is our new scripture for the new week. The NEW ACTIVITY IS ABDOMINALS!!! hope you keep up walking because it is amazing the time you get with God and memorizing the scriptures. But lets target train for the next 4 weeks. God wants us to pinpoint, be specific this time, about our body and His word.    Think about this scripture while target training your tummy. ask God with every crunch what are the things that He has been telling you that no one else knows or understands, think about those things that He has specifically told you, that only you have discerned. Maybe about your marriage, finances, life, actions, growth, changing someone elses life, whatever it is.  Pray for those who think that what you say and do is foolish.  Forgive them if you must. be specific. Dont forget to target train. Repeat this scripture with every crunch if you have to, but devour His word at the same time. Remember in the last scripture We were instructed to be Full and Hungry at the same time!
God bless

Beginning the Weekend

It is amazing when you are living out the Scripture just how real it becomes if you recognize that it is God. Disappointments left and right, but I am being taught in all circumstances to be content. Yea I dont like this at all, but I will not despise it!!!!! I will not despise it, I will not despise it. I want to possess the power in the Word of God today. Live it, Possess it. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

Week Four

Sorry my internet has been down for a week , I lost my walking buddy to a seizure, so on and so forth. bad week. But things are looking up!
This weeks new scripture is actually 3. Sorry but it is worth it..
Phil 4: 11-13    I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content. I know both how to be abased(without) and I know how to abound. Everywhere and in everything I am instructed to be both full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

Learning to relax and have peace in the mess is not easy, Paul and Timothy both said " I have Learned..." This week we are to focus on those things that this scripture represents to us. We are still walking for the exercise, this is the last week of the 1st four week challenge. There are some difficult things that God has asked of me, but the word tells me that I can do it. All I know is that I need God so much more now than ever. When your prayers come full circle and God begins to change what you have asked him to in your life, do not fear nor shrink back. Just remember you asked for it.  The will of God is unfolding before us. So do not depise what God is doing or you will not possess it!! (thanks for the reminder Ms Jennifer)
Be blessed this week and get busy.

New week New Scripture

2 Cor 4:16 Therefore we do not lose Heart. Though outwarly we are wasting away,yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day.

New verse starts tomorrow, keep up the walking with God. We talked about the heart being essentially your soul that needed to be gaurded last week. This week keep gaurding it but dont lose it!!!!! We are all facing many things right now, but God is the center and focus of my heart. This is what makes it easy not to lose Heart. Focus on HIM. If He is not your focus, you will melt into a puddle of SELF. Dont lose it!!!!

day 5

The rain stinks!!! But today I got to walk through the mall with my hubby! Small moments make you feel special. Be creative with your walking if you are following this. Enjoy.

2nd Day

Well I did walk my dog last night, it was actually very nice. I wasnt out there long but long enough for God to have me praying for myself and showing me things about my heart that had to be gaurded. Praise God for his Grace. See we are not bound by our past but by allowing an old thought or feeling to control how we feel about our past is bondage.  I am no longer held captive by the Hurts or shame, so why would I allow my thoughts to make me think I am? The hard part it that when the emotions are revealed, they actually re-manifest in you. They are very real again. But until this happens you cant confront them Successfullly.   Hope no one has forgotten your scripture.  Prov 4:23 ABOVE ALL ELSE, Guard your heart, for it is a wellspring of life. In the book Taking on Goliath she states that Your heart provides clues to you as to what you are up against. Stop ignoring it! War for your heart. It belongs to you and is inhabited by the Holy spirit. But if there is other stuff taking up room, LET GOD SHOW YOU. Keep praying. 

 Let God speak to your heart, He can reveal a way to get the victory. 
With Love

Challenge #1

Tomorrow the challenge starts! Your activity for the next four weeks is WALKING. Some of you may already be runners, but listen carefully. I run to, but I do that for me!! This is about your Heart. Find something interesting to do. I will be challenged to walk my dog and reflect on the scripture each week. Take your kid for a piggyback ride for 15 min, do something fun. There is no time limit for your walk. We will be doing this for 4 weeks, so if you are truly participating you should be increasing your time, not just with walking, but the time you are spending with God. He desires to give Revelation so we must listen.


Our Hearts are being fought for daily, whether you see it or not. Throughout this 4 week period I pray that God reveal your Heart to you. Your Heart includes your soul. Mind, will emotions, your feelings about yourself and others, your thoughts, decisions, etc. It is the essence of who you are. Lord show us what parts of our hearts are ungaurded!! He will begin to clean, purify, remove old costly soulish things that are not meant to be there. Just focus on him and his word through this.

Post what you are doing, you could give other people ideas. Let us know if you so choose what God is doing in your life.
Your weekly scripture is: Proverbs 4:23 Above all else, gaurd your Heart, for it is the wellspring of life.  What is it that is coming out of that well right now? This is your focus for this week. Walk with God and let your Heart be revealed and gaurded.
 
With Love

Welcome to the body and spirit challenge

Starting Monday 8/23/10 the challenge begins. Here is how this will work for those of you who choose to participate. The body challenge is in a four week increment. The Sunday evening before the week begins I will post what specific body part or activity we will be working on for the duration of the four weeks. Yes I am talking about exercise. I will post a new scripture memory verse every Sunday night to start your new week.
The Word says we do not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God. Math 4:4. This is not just a physical challenge, but a challenge to live by the spirit that receives Revelation from God. Our spirits crave something different than our body and souls. It desires revelation.
I will post the first activity and Scripture Sunday evening. This challenge begins Monday. Hope you are up for it.
Feel free to leave your comments, talk to you tomorrow
