Following God to Take Back My Territory
Mood:  sharp
Now Playing: Umma23
Topic: Exodus 23:28-30

 FOLLOWING GOD TO TAKE BACK MY TERRITORY

S. Exodus 23:28 And I will send hornets (disease of the flesh/PRIDE) before you which shall drive out the Hivite (wicked), Canaanite (humiliation), and Hittite (confusion & fear) from before you.

29 I will not drive them out from before you in one year (a revolution of time in unity), lest the land become desolate [for lack of attention] and the wild beasts multiply against you.

30 Little by little (to deminish by paring off and making ineffective, bit by bit) I will drive them out (expel) from before you, until (as far as this, so that) you have increased (bear fruit/growth) and are numerous enough to take possession (occupy, acquire) of the land (firm territory/field/wilderness).

O. And I will send in front of you the 'disease of the flesh' (PRIDE/a weakness of sin/humanity) in order that you will have the ability to expel wickedness, humiliation, confusion and fear from before you.

God will drive these out in the united revelation of time (God's perfect timing when His people are of one mind and heart) in order that there will be something left for our inheritance, not being destroyed by lack of being taken care of. (the unbelievers will tend our 'territory' until then)

God will make them ineffective, bit by bit, expelling them before we 'get there', so that we can grow and bare fruit for the Kingdom, enough to occupy our firm territory (Kingdom domain).

A. God is going before me, using 'pride' to make my enemys weak, so that I have the ability to 'kick out' of my life wickedness, humiliation, confusion and fear. Once I get united COMPLETELY with His mind, in perfect timing with His plan, my enemies will be completely made 'inopperable'. Little by little God will kick them out of my territory/inheritence/Kingdom domain. In the mean time, they will 'take physical care' of it until I have the wisdom, knowledge and know-how to bare fruit and grow there. This will be the time that I am firmly estabished in the purpose that God has given to me in this life.

P. Thank You, Father, that You ARE my Father and take care of me. Thank You that You take the enemy out of my life a little at a time so that I can learn how to fight him, become strong, and learn to bare fruit and grow in spiritual knowledge. Thank You that You teach me all these things in Your perfect timing and patience. Thank You!

Using God's Words in HIS Will/Way
Mood:  flirty
Now Playing: Umma23
Topic: Psalm 12:6, 7

S.

Psalm 12:6, 7 The words and promises of the Lord are pure words, like silver refined in an earthen furnace, purified seven times over. You will keep them and preserve them, O Lord; You will guard and keep us from this [evil] generation forever.

O. To Keep: generally to protect, attend to, etc

To preserve: to watch, guard from dangers

God PROTECTS AND ATTENDS TO His words! He also GUARDS them and WATCHES what they will do.

A. Because God protects and attends to His own words, each time I repeat His Word, His interest and awareness perk up.  Watching over His own words, which I have repeated out loud, He sees how they produce what they were intended to produce. 

Just the idea that I would GET GOD'S ATTENTION with His very own words, lifts my spirit! If I use His words the way He intended them to be used, He will know that I desire to KNOW His will...and follow Him. 

P. Father, help me to be a trusted 'doer of Your Word', in that I use YOUR Words for YOUR will!

A Heart of Clay
Mood:  a-ok
Now Playing: Umma23
Topic: Exodus 20:24

 "A HEART OF CLAY"

S. Exodus 20:24:

An altar of earth you shall make to Me and sacrifice on it your burnt offerings and your peace offerings, your sheep and your oxen. In every place where I record My name and cause it to be remembered I will come to you and bless you.

O.

God prefers an alter (slaughter for sacrifice) of earth (soil) for our burnt offerings (our burned up steps to our 'walk of life') and our peace offerings (sacrifice for alliance or friendship; a voluntary sacrifice of thanks).

A.

A 'natural state' is what God wants from me...a true heart, a heart that is real. In this 'real heart state' I am to allow Him to destroy my own way of walking through life. This is done by surrendering what I want for what HE wants, and doing this with a sincere heart.

He wants me to to give Him thanks, willingly, which brings on my alliegence and friendship with Him.

P.

God, I know You want my 'real heart', my 'sincere heart'. I pray for a softened and real heart ALWAYS toward You. Make my heart like 'clay' in Your hands, Father.

Letting the Mana Melt Each Morning
Mood:  bright
Now Playing: Umma23
Topic: Exodus 15:8,25 & 16:21

 "LETTING THE MANA MELT EACH MORNING"

S. Exodus 15:8,25 & 16:21

15:8 With the blast of Your nostrils the waters piled up, the floods stood fixed in a heap, the deeps congealed in the heart of the sea.

15:25 And he cried to the Lord, and the Lord showed him a tree which he cast into the waters, and the waters were made sweet.

16:21 They gathered it (the mana) every morning, each as much as he needed, for when the sun became hot it melted.

O. This is a picture of what God does with His Word for us.

1.) He uses it as a guide (fixed in a heap) to guide us in the right way, as when the Israelites went through the Red Sea on dry land.

2.) He shows us how to mingle the Word with the Giver of Truth (Jesus) that gives us the RIGHT Word...the Word of Truth. (casting the Tree into the Water to make it sweet)

3.) We are to 'gather' the 'mana' (heep up the Word), each beginning of every day, until it is absorbed into our spirit (melts in His glory inside of us). In this place, we gather personal spiritual knowledge and understanding, deep in our souls and spirits.

A. When I gather the 'mana' each morning, each NEW DAY, and allow Jesus and His Spirit to teach me, I know I am finding personal spiritual truth just for me...a personal rhema word. Then I mediatate on it all day, allowing it to melt inside of me in understanding.

P. Thank You, Lord that You showed me this. Help me to meditate each day on Your Word. Keep my spirit constantly full of Your Sweet Mana, lead by Holy Spirit to personal wisdom, knowledge and understanding. Thank You, Jesus, that YOU are the WORD!

A Beacon of Joy
Mood:  bright

Topic: Exodus 12:22

A BEACON OF JOY 

S.Exodus 12: 22And you shall take a bunch of hyssop, dip it in the blood in the basin, and touch the lintel above the door and the two side posts with the blood; and none of you shall go out of his house until morning.

O. We are to take a 'branch'(Jesus) and dip it inside of our spirit where 'silence/remembrance of joy'dwell, and make it obvious to others what is over us. We are to dwell there, each beginning of the new day.

A. What we have inside of us needs to obvious to others. Our 'joy and peace' should be a beacon to everyone who sees us. We should be obvious, without words, that Jesus lives in us!

P. Jesus, I pray that your 'silence of joy' resides in me in a VERY obvious way. Make the joy you have put in me, a beacon to every person who sees me! Help Your joy to draw all others to Yourself.

2 Corinthians 3:18 But we all, with unveiled face beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord the Spirit.

THE SEARCH FOR PURE WATER
Mood:  happy
Now Playing: umma23
Topic: Exodus 7:20, 22, 24

 

THE SEARCH FOR PURE WATER

 S.

Exodus 7:20, 22, 24 (AMP) [Aaron] lifted up the rod and smote the waters in the river in the sight of Pharaoh and his servants, and all the waters in the river were turned to blood. (to die/perish)

22 But the magicians of Egypt did the same by their enchantments and secret arts;

24 And all the Egyptians dug round about the river for water to drink, for they could not drink the water of the [Nile].

 (Nile='the waters whose source is hidden'; 'the abyss of waters'; 'The Black River')

O.

The Egyptians believed Pharaoh's 'sorcerers and magicians' could do all that Moses' God could do. The 'magicians' (Satan's co-horts) and Moses' God (Jehovah) BOTH put death in the 'water'.

The Egyptians now 'searched' for pure water so they could live.

Where did they search?

In the only places they knew...within their own boarders where God's Truth didn't dwell.

The TRUE WATER (the True Spirit, the True Word) wasn't even found there, but they BELIEVED it did because Satan used a 'shadow' to mimic the truth and fool the Egyptians.

 A.

Just like Pharaoh's magicians and sorcerers who could do the same miracles as Moses and Aaron, Satan can make us believe he has the power to ‘refresh our spirits' with his ‘water’ (i.e. New Age, Buddhism, Hinduism, etc.). But there is only ONE TRUE SOURCE of pure ‘water’!

"Choose today whom you will serve!"

I keep hearing this as I am searching for the PURE water to refresh and fulfill my spirit’s lacking.

It's a matter of choosing the right source of 'water' and finding out WHERE that source comes from; Truth or a shadow of Truth.

This is likened to the thousands of satellites in the sky, beaming down their many 'beams'. I must CHOOSE the One and Only Satellite that can bring TRUTH and then focus ONLY on THIS BEAM OF LIGHT! Only the 'Satellite of Truth' can bring my spirit the contentment and fulfillment that I am searching for.

P.

Keep me ever focused on just You, the One and Only Truth! I pray for quick discernment in knowing fake shadows from Your Truth! And THANK YOU for this HUGE revelation in my life, Sweet Jesus! You amaze me by Your love!

Daily Creative Words
Mood:  loud
Now Playing: Umma23
Topic: Exodus 5:13

 DAILY CREATIVE WORDS

S. Exodus 5:13 (KJ) And the taskmasters hasted them, saying, Fulfill your works, your daily tasks (words), as when there was straw.

O. And the 'oppressors' 'oppressed' them, saying, 'finish' your 'deed/work/product', your daily 'words', as when there was 'building material/fodder for livestock' (to build/rebuild/cause to continue)

straw=worthless, a stalk of threshed grain, unimportant, of little value or substance.

A. Our words can have meaning or be meaningless; useless or used to build. Satan, the 'oppressor' would love it if all our daily words were useless. Jesus gave us the power to speak, to create with our words. God created with words. Jesus gave us that unfinished daily task; to speak into being 'something' from 'nothing' by faith.

P. Show me how to daily create with my words, Father, according to Your will. Check my words, Holy Spirit. Help my daily words to be creative and not destructive!

The TRUE Satelite/Shepherd
Mood:  sharp
Now Playing: Umma23
Topic: Exodus 2:16-18

"The TRUE Satellite/Shepherd"

S. Exodus 2:16-18

Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters. And they came and drew water, and they filled the troughs to water their father’s flock. Then the shepherds came and drove them away; but Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock. When they came to Reuel their father, he said, “How is it that you have come so soon today?”

O. The seven daughters (completed 'builders of fruit/spiritual growth') of Reuel ('Friend of God') came to water their father's (God's) flock/Believers (teach the Word/water their spirits). Shepherds (false teachers) tried to drive away these 'builders of fruit'. But Moses ('Drawing out of the Water'/'Rescuer') drove away these 'shepherds' and then gave the seven daughters' sheep water/Word/revelation. When the 'daughters' got home, their father asked them why they had come 'home',having completed their job, so soon. The 'daughters' now understood the revelation of the Word, because the One who KNEW the Word watered their knowledge with correct revelation, unlike the 'shepherds' who didn't want them to know the Truth. These are 'false' shepherds, those who would lead us away from God's revelation and knowledge of the Word. Deeper revelation from the Word causes our 'job' to be done in order and precision...bringing us quickly into our 'job for the day'.

A. When I focus on ONLY the ONE true knowledge giver, Jesus and Holy Spirit, I receive revelation, order, and correct alignment with God's 'job of the day' for me. He is the ONLY giver of correct revelation and knowledge...no other 'teacher' can do that. Any other 'satelite' is incorrect, knows not the Truth. Only Jesus is the correct 'Beamer-Out-Of-Truth'. All others are false paths, diversions, and tellers of lies. Jesus, my Satelite, gets me on the correct path quickly, causing me to be aligned with the correct assignment for this day...and it can quickly be accomplished because all is lined up in Truth. False satelites are 'false shepherds' that would try to divert me from knowing God's revelation and assignments for this day. If I listen or focus on false satelites, I am confused...messed up...and my focus is taken off Jesus.

P. Father, thank You that You have shown me where to focus...that all other 'satelites' are fake and are a diversion from Your Truth...JESUS! Keep my eyes ever on You, Jesus...my ONLY Satelite!

From Human Death Comes Spiritual Life
Mood:  a-ok
Now Playing: Umma23
Topic: Genesis 4:26

 FROM HUMAN DEATH COMES SPIRITUAL LIFE

S. Genesis 4:26 And then Seth had a son whom he named Enosh. That's when men and women began praying and worshiping in the name of God.

(Seth=puts, sets, fixes, substitutes, compensation ; Enosh=mortal man, sick, despared, forgetful, weak, frail)

O. Once human beings realize they are weak and sick, HUMAN, and will eventually die, this is when they start seeking God. God gives our spirit new life as the human body erodes.

A. In my personal life, I know I have no time to waste. NOW is the time to seek God and become closer to Him. My spirit needs more life before this body whithers and dies.

P. More of You, less of me, Jesus! Stir up an acellerated longing for more of You, Lord. My spirit longs for more of You. Show me how to surrender me more. Fill up those surrendered places with Your life, Jesus!

Contentment Shown Through Holy Spirit's Gifts
Now Playing: Umma23
Topic: 1 Timothy 4:14, 15 (AMP)

 

S. 1 Timothy 4:14-15 (AMP)Do not neglect the gift which is in you, [that special inward endowment] which was directly imparted to you [by the Holy Spirit] by prophetic utterance when the elders laid their hands upon you [at your ordination].

Practice and cultivate and meditate upon these duties; throw yourself wholly into them [as your ministry], so that your progress may be evident to everybody.

O. Keep interested in the individual favor (which gratifies us and God) that God has given you by divine inspiration and by the declaring (by you and others) of the purposes of God in your life.

 Care for, attend to carefully, practise, keep interested in, keep concerned with these things...always staying in a fixed position in them...pay attention to what is inside of you, inside of your intellect and mind...so that your progress in the spiritual things of God will be seen and known by others. These make you contented,  oozing out of you, revealing the 'Jesus' inside of you.

A. To gratify is To please; to make content; to satisfy. What really makes me satisfied is the gifts/interests of Holy Spirit deep within my spirit.

I hold these gifts/interests and am to USE them, practice them, hone them, keep interested in them, keep them in the forefront of my mind...keep them in a FIXED POSITION, so that they are observed by myself and others. The contentment they bring to me show that God is 'growing me up'...completeing me.

P. Thank You that You bring contentment through my individual gifts. Bring Yourself glory in the satisfaction You show through me. I pray that others would see the contentment You bring into my life through gifts!
