I Understand Obedience Key

God holds the key to the mystery of life..

He has a plan for each and every one of us..

The real key is..

Will we trust God to unlock

The desires of our hearts

And when He does..

Will we be ready

And will we walk forward in it

Lord my prayer for today is ..

Continue to prepare me

And show me the way

Where you would have me to walk today

Open the doors

Because I trust you with the Key

With every provision .. for LisaMe!

(Shared by a friend last yr 10/2010)

When you surrender to what is

And so become fully present

The past ceases to have any power

You do not need it anymore.

Presence is the key

The now is the key

(My response to her)

That is a wonderful Key ..

Keys unlock..

The things we tend to block ...

Surrender is what we must do..

In order .. to see the full view ..

The past has a way

To get in our way ...

To keep us from Walking

In the presence of Today ...

Hold on to your Key .. and use it today ..

 

Note:

My prayer continues for today ..

as I humbly pray ...

Father God.. help me walk in Today ..

One day at a time..

trusting in you to show me the way ...

Open the doors that are hidden from me..

remove the power of the enemy over my life..  

Help me to surrender everything that I can not see. 

Trusting in you with Faith in my heart ..

to step out .. and start ..

Knowing you will show me the way ..

I believe you will have your way in me ..

And I will submit to that will..

For greater is He who is in me .. than he who is in the world.

 

(For what are we but the body of Christ.. the hand can not do the job of the foot we each have our own job .. Our own assignment .. we must allow the Lord's alignment)

Romans 12 (the Body of Christ)

Romans 12:3 For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the faith God has distributed to each of you.
Romans 12:6 We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us

(The power of his love.. if we are not walking in the power of His love ~Nothing will fall into place.. we must seek His will/His heart  .. and not look to human hand .. No man can understand the power of His Love)

Philippians 4: ⁸ Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. ⁹ Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.

Philippians 4:¹³ I can do all this through him who gives me strength.

Philippians 4:19 And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.

Obedience is the Key

I must obey God

And must walk in Faith Trusting 

What He says (Christ)

Not in what I SEE

LisaMe!

Numbers 20:10-12 (Amplified Bible)
10And Moses and Aaron assembled the congregation before the rock and Moses said to them, Hear now, you rebels; must we bring you water out of this rock?
11And Moses lifted up his hand and with his rod he smote the rock [a]twice. And the water came out abundantly, and the congregation drank, and their livestock.

12And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, Because you did not believe in (rely on, cling to) Me to sanctify Me in the eyes of the Israelites, you therefore [b]shall not bring this congregation into the land which I have given them.(A)

Footnotes: taken from biblegate.com


a.Numbers 20:11 "And the Rock was Christ," as I Cor. 10:4 explains. Once smitten at Rephidim (Exod. 17:6ff.), He did not need to be smitten, crucified, again. To smite the rock twice was to imply that Christ's death on the cross was not effectual or sufficient for time and eternity.

b.Numbers 20:12 Possibly Moses was not aware of the significance of what he had been ordered to do, but nevertheless God held him responsible for not obeying Him exactly. Obedience to His will is vitally important, whether we understand His purpose or not. The motto "God's will: nothing more; nothing less; nothing else; at any cost" would have been priceless to Moses and Aaron that day, if they had only followed it.

I understand Obedience is the Key

Happy Thanksgiving

Special Delivery

I wanted to find a way

To Say Happy Thanksgiving Day

And not miss reaching out to one

Of my family members or special friends

Although I could sit here and write all day

I still would not be able

To say

All that I .. would want to say

To each and everyone of you

Individually

How you have touched my life in some way

Because of you

I am who I am

Your life has touched my life

Good or bad

Happy or sad

We have shared memories

Some Old ~ Some New

I have shared my life with you

I am thankful to have this life

That I am in

To have you as my family

And to have you as my special friends

I would not want to change a single thing

Because of this life

I am who I am

Trusting God

With each moment of each day

I am blessed to be-able

To be on my computer

To write, to pray and yes to even play

Sharing God's word on my way

Life is what we make of it

Even when it is not what we want

Or how we had planned

When we walk with God

It is easier

Because He knows us from beginning to end

He excepts our failures

And flaws

He truly understands

All the good times

And sad times

That we will cross...through our journey

Like a dessert with it's ingredients

Once put all together

We all have our good pieces we share

No one wants the burnt spots

Or the ones that end up not

Turning out just right

But today we can be Thankful

That Jesus ~ Loves us

With all of our imperfections

We do not need to deal with human rejection

Because He died for our sin

Which is every thought of ugly that we have

Even if we look perfect on the outside

Like that well baked and decorated cake

If it taste bad no one wants it

What is on the inside

Is what really counts

So when you are enjoying your

Thanksgiving Feast

I pray that you will

 Remember

To surrender that little piece

Of rottenness

We all have on the inside

To God

And allow Him to take it

And make you what ... He has created you to be

Wonderfully and fearfully made

We are whole because of Him

Healed because of Him

And can enjoy

Blessings

Because of Him

So Today

Take just a moment

And Be Thankful

Because of Him

Amen

I Love you .. your sister friend.. LisaMe!

The Heart of the Matter

What is in your stoney heart land

We must learn and understand

God sees through the stone

And is watching and waiting

Upon the throne

His Spirit is with you

You are not alone

Will you recognize when He

Walks through your home

Not all will see what you see

Just continue to listen

To God's Voice

Follow me

Help them

To cross ..The bridge

So they can be delivered

From their Trials

To their Testimonies

Note: 11/22/2010 Day~ 12~ Changed Heart .. So many things.. that we must understand.. one is that God sees through the stone.. we are never alone .. God want our hearts to change.. He is the one .. who causes the change... We are the ones who must be willing to accept.. it has to be that way .. As we journey on to Trust and Obey ... He... says come sup with me.. there is always room for you ...Love LisaMe!

Luke 12:4-5 “I tell you, my friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body and after that can do no more. 5 But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear him who, after your body has been killed, has authority to throw you into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear him.

Luke 21:5-19 (New International Version)
The Destruction of the Temple and Signs of the End Times

5 Some of his disciples were remarking about how the temple was adorned with beautiful stones and with gifts dedicated to God. But Jesus said, 6 “As for what you see here, the time will come when not one stone will be left on another; every one of them will be thrown down.”

7 “Teacher,” they asked, “when will these things happen? And what will be the sign that they are about to take place?”
8 He replied: “Watch out that you are not deceived. For many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am he,’ and, ‘The time is near.’ Do not follow them. 9 When you hear of wars and uprisings, do not be frightened. These things must happen first, but the end will not come right away.”
10 Then he said to them: “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. 11 There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven.
12 “But before all this, they will seize you and persecute you. They will hand you over to synagogues and put you in prison, and you will be brought before kings and governors, and all on account of my name. 13 And so you will bear testimony to me. 14 But make up your mind not to worry beforehand how you will defend yourselves. 15 For I will give you words and wisdom that none of your adversaries will be able to resist or contradict. 16 You will be betrayed even by parents, brothers and sisters, relatives and friends, and they will put some of you to death. 17 Everyone will hate you because of me. 18 But not a hair of your head will perish. 19 Stand firm, and you will win life.

God is Calling me

.. To step forward with the "Bridge Mix"

It is scary seeing such a big thing ..

I am reminded ..

Many have said just use what you got .. lol

It makes me laugh quite a lot ..

I know God is not playing with me

But just allowing me to see ..

All the Joy that the enemy has robbed from me

It melts in your mouth not your hands..lol

That is the message that I understand

God is getting into their hearts ..

He used candy ... to get my attention

What is in your hands ..

Like the fishermen back in the day..

I have been tired and wanted to put my candies away ..

But I hear God say.. LisaMe .. Bring me that candy ..

Watch what will happen when the people open their hands..

They think they are receiving a candy treat

But what they are receiving is spiritual meat

Lives will be touched as you continue to share..

Because God’s message is hidden in there ..

One by one .. they will continue to come..

Lives being changed .. because of the Holy one

I will be faithful because I know I did hear ...

Yes I will walk this out and not turn and run in fear ..

Note: 12/8/2010 Tested Heart ~Day 28 on my Journey through God's Heart Your Destiny by My friend Marianne Cadwell .. God is continuing to show me.. the way .. Daily I am being confirmed through the things that He shows me ... My test .. will I continue to seek.. His will .. YES .. I will not give up .. He continues to encourage and confirm in my heart ..I am to walk this out .. Today I found.. another confirmation .. At the Top of the Stairs was written .. back in 2006/2007 while praying for a solider that I had heard was wounded .. praying for a mother I did not know.. This is what we are all called to do .. Today I feel it confirmation to what I see in my heart for this Bridge Mix ministry .. we are to pray, prepare and lead the way for those who need help... those who have lost their way .. To Christ .. the stairway to heaven He is the Bridge ... Amen .. Today I feel I am passing my test .. on my way to my destiny .. God has been leading me and I have been a faithful follower ... the journey has been long .. and I have gotten tired at times.. But resting is OK.. Because God is the one in charge.. not me.. these things will happen in His time.. Amen

My stairway prayer ~ looked today like a bridge this is where we all need to meet with others in prayer.. Amen .. Especially those to weak to pray for themselves.. This is What the Bridge Mix is all about .. helping to stand in the gap .. not only in prayer but in deed...

12/14/2010 Day 34~ Steadfast Heart ~ I will not give up and I will not give in... As I continue to walk... It is God who will win .. He will continue to make the way.. as I am Steadfast and continue to pray ..

12/10/2012  Praying for a friend of a friend ..Amen ..(Praise report God touched this person and healed them through ICU) ... I totally believe that .. I am always will to pray .. knowing God is waiting, and wanting to hear from us .. on behalf of a friend.. especially a stranger ... I can only imagine what it was like for Mary.. giving birth to Jesus .. laying in a manger .. because there was No Room .. God makes room for us.. in His heart .. and brings healing, hope and love... in ways.. we could never imagine .. Amen .. We are just to be obedient to pray .. and allow His answer to come forth .. His answers are not always the way we want .. but one thing we can count on ... and that is God is faithful .. to answer our prayers .. as we come to Him .. at "The Top of The Stairs"

Thinking of all the things I am thankful for ..

Thinking of all the things I am thankful for ..

My children come to mind ..

One living with Jesus ..

My Liza Nichole,

 Her brother and sister..

Here on this earth walking out their lives ..

One daughter and One son ..

My Jeremy alone in a work camp ..

Making the ultimate sacrifice for his family..

Because there is work that needs to be done ..

So he goes out alone.. To where the work is ..

And then My Jamie ..

Walking the lessons of being a wife..

And learning how to be a parent and all about motherhood..

That is it not always easy and can be misunderstood ...

Note: It gives us an understanding of how Mary must have felt .. having to let go of Jesus..her son.. as he began his ministry walk.. knowing he was a man.. but yet also her son.. but her story even greater.. than ours.. He being the son of God..

 

And even as we watch our daughters.. become mothers.. with babies of their own...we see ourselves.. and have to let go .. for them to grow .. into the mother God would have them to be.. and as wifes.. to their husbands... we are at an age.. where we are reflecting on many things... ♥ I am learning how to love this time of my life ... God is opening new doors for me.. I am ready to walk ..out this life infront of me ....

What is in Your Hands ....

We give only out of what we get .. so in order to be a blessing that means... 

we first must have received one ..:)

Your Faithfulness shines

Like a radiant star...

Even when you think

No one knows

Where you are...

God sees ...

Love LisaMe!

Are you reaping or sowing as you are going

I am an instrument

In the Lords hands..

And will go and do

What He commands ..

Even at times

When I may not understand ..

It might not be

For me to know

About the seeds

With which I sow

It is just important
For the Father to know..

 It is only in Him that I go
Love LisaMe!

I Stand in Awe of You

How Awesome and the perfect song .. to finish up my devotion for today.. The Enemy - Being Honest with self .. if you haven't read it yet.. you may want to check it out .. it is posted on my wall...

One thing I learned a long time ago..

and that is not to be a pretender ..

We all fall.. we all sin..

We all need to be reminded now and then ..

We can NOT let the enemy win

and the only way to do that

is to stay humble before the Lord..

So Today .. again I Stand Amazed ..

to the one and Holy God to Whom I praise..

Song I stand in Awe of you

The Enemy - Being Honest with self

Fighting with a faceless foe

That is the enemy don't ya know

The bible tells us no weapon formed

Against us shall prosper

And although many of us already know

We are still dealing with that faceless foe

Are we armed with the word of the Lord..

Lifting our shield of faith ..

And raising our sword ..

Which is the word of the Lord

Standing with our feet shod in His peace

Being held up with the belt of truth ..

Our head covered with our salvation in tack

When under the enemy's attack

Or do we let self-righteousness get in the way

It is supposed to be a with the breastplate of protection

Not being used as a weapon of rejection

Do we have his angels ..with us on board

When the enemy sends an attack

Then why do we feel .. we have to lash back

Who do you think is causing this attack ..

We as Christians already know the answers to that

But we still fall under those ... sneaky attacks

If we have no weapon formed against us
That will prosper..

Why do we feel the need to defend

Or encourage that enemy

To be our friend

Or pick up a weapon to use

Which causes us to abuse

Making us no better than them

The bible is very clear

When it says "We All Sin"

Our words they cut like a knife..

Causing.. bitterness, envy and strife

Today
I am listening

To that small voice from within

And
Learning how
Not to let

That enemy win

Patience is a virtue

That is not easy to have

Until you learn how

To use self-control

Over your emotions

That can be so easy

To run out of control

Emotions .. is where

The enemy loves .. to hide

Because it causes .. us to lay

Our mind aside

Then we become an easy prey

For that faceless foe to have his way

Over-comers is what we are

Although we may carry

More than one .. battle scar

When you know who your

Enemy's are

Deception is a wicked thing

She wants to be a queen

Lying is her best friend

We need to never

Allow ourselves to give in to them

When we listen .. instead of speak

The enemy will be the one

To become weak

Today
The Victory is mine

As I read in the book

God's Heart Your Destiny

Heart number 9

Anger will not win

I am learning how to listen

For him .. so he doesn't sneak in

LisaMe! your sister friend

Walking through life



God's Grace

reaches..

to keep him

out of the ditches..

with clean shoes.

I am so blessed

just sitting in pews...

I am grateful

as we walk

through the by ways

and highways of life....

Love LisaMe!



My test

So much has happened since
Yesterday

God is moving on my behalf

In my better half
He has picked up his staff

I hear the Lord say "Follow Me"

Trust Me .. and I will lead thee

Things are in the Lords control

I know He has taught me to be bold

But also how to lay it down

My test is

Can I do it without a sound

I know with God's help I can ..

He has brought many friends to pray for me

When I am weak
And
Can not see

What is going on
All around me

Thank you Lord 
For healing
This ... LisaMe!

I want to see you ...

God says in His word...

If we seek Him we shall find Him...

If we need answers to the littlest of thing...

He will give us the answers ..

And then He will confirm it ..

Over and over again..

Until we understand it ..

.

I am an inspirational writer ..

I love God

And love ..

what He does in me..

And through me...

Ephesians Chapter 1 ..

Tell us.. how much God loves us

And all He sent His son to help us with ..

We need only to Open the Eyes of our Hearts..

.Amen

Love LisaMe!

Enjoy the song.. Open the Eyes of My Heart Lord

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wutmEjdbedE

I will follow you .. I hear you calling

I am
A
Solider
For the Lord

I do not want to just go through the motions..

I need All of God...

I have been starving for affection ..

And praying for protection

God wants His adoration

And Praise ..

I listened and I pray ...

But still ..
There is an emptiness

We are supposed to be One Flesh

I know what is missing...

It is you ...

I sit here waiting ..

Writing from my heart

Crying out to the Lord

Praying Can you hear me ... Please let me in ..

I know that God can ..

And I hear Him saying

Wait No more

Come to me..

I know you are weary

I know your battle within

You are trying to wait on him

But come to Me now

And you will see

That it is I

Who holds the Key

With or without you

 I am going

Love LisaMe!

Onward
Christian
Solider

The Battle Field
Is
No Place
To
Be
Alone

This is Why
God
Sends
Us
Out
In Two's

When under attack.. I Know

He has my back
I know I can always

count on that

Thank you Lord you have my Back

Whenever I began to fret..

I know the Lord...

He never forgets..

If He said He will do it..

He will... 

I do not have to guess

I know my

Father knows best

The promises in His word .. are true!

When I began to fear
I Just remind myself
That He is near ...

In times when I may be afraid
I close my eyes
And
Pray.. Pray .. Pray
I Know God will make a way

 I am reminded .. God is still with me
He has never left me ... and then His peace comes

I know the Lord .. Knowing
His Great Love for Me
Love your sister friend LisaMe!

He loves you to ... have no doubt about that.. Just listen what He wrote about you in His book!

Price for Freedom

God sent His son
 To reach us where we are ....

That is why He died 
and
bears the scars

He took those nails .. for you and me ..
That my friend was Victory

It may have looked  .. like death .. to many there
 Who stood .. in shock ..   and could only stare
As tears ..  rolled down .. their face
They did not know .. He was already .. in another place
His Father .. made a way .. for Him
His only son .. to him .. he gave
The keys to death  .. and the grave

In three days .. that stone did roll
That is how ..  I know .. this story told

The Price of Freedom .. that was paid .. for you and me ...
Will you receive your Victory

Note: Pictures from our trip to The Holy Land expedition in Orlando Florida 4-12-2008

I tell myself.. just breathe ....

Speak your Word Lord..

I am your servant..

waiting to hear ..

I know you are near...

I feel your breath ...

as I breathe....

I Love you...

LisaMe!

Note: I am desperate for you Lord.. desperate for a word.. for an answer.. for what to do next.. I feel so lost .. without you... I can not take another step... waiting.. on you.... for my peace... your sweet release..

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oad8ov10AjY&feature=share

I Love this song... I have sung it many times... in desperation for the Lord... He has never let me down ... I am so lost without... God .. His Holy Spirit... flows through me .. as I write.. I am so in Awe.. at His holy presence living in me .. He is my daily bread .. His very word spoken in me... I can not do it without Him ..  LisaMe!

Mary Diane..

Of what many would want to hide in their pew

Wake up People

The government is dealing us  pile of dirt

LOL ..put a cartoon .. on that..

Hugs.. LisaMe!

Written on her wall... August 26, 2009 funny it still applies

Amazing Grace

Without God's Amazing Grace...

I would just be an empty space ..

A void without life .. without hope

But because He loves me ..

I am a soul ..with a heart and a face ..

My purpose Here on this earth ..

Is To share .. His Amazing Grace ..

May you find comfort .. In His arms today ...

As your chains fall away .. Know that He loves you

Embrace .. that love He has for you

It is His Amazing Grace

Blessings.. your beloved sister friend .. LisaMe!

Note to self: While listening to  Chris Tomlin's- Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone) I felt these words come together ... I wanted to share the song with others... My purpose on this earth is to encourage.. others to reach past their hurts.. to find comfort in the arms of the Lord ..
