HOW BIG IS YOUR GIANT

How big is your giant? When you look at him do you say the giant is so big he is going to destroy me? Or do you say , my giant is so big I can't possibly miss him. A word of wisdom....don't look at your giant but rather look at the reward on the other side of him. God bless, Linda

SUPPLY AND DEMAND

Have you ever noticed that the law demands ....thou shalt not... Thou shalt not.....thou shalt not. God demands man's righteousness through obedience to the law. Grace on the other hand supplies. God supplies righteousness through Jesus Christ His son. He heals,he delivers, he saves. God supplies through the grace of His son. Just some thoughts.... God bless, Linda

JESUS DID NOY TREAT EVERY ONE THE SAME

No matter what the religious crowd has told you, Jesus does not treat everyone the same. He did not treat the crowds the same as He treated the 70. He did not treat the 70 the same as he treated the 12. He did not treat the twelve the same as He treated the three. It was according to your faith. He took the three where He never took the others. Raising the dead, healing a blind man, meeting Elijah and Moses on the mountain. He explained the parables to the 12. He simply sent the 70 to tell the good news. Just some thoughts. God bless, Linda

YOU CAN NOT ENTER THE PRESENSE OF GOD SILENTLY

You can not enter the presence of God silently. It is not written. When the priests enter the Holy of Holies the priests garments had a bell and a pomegrante every other one on the hem of his garment. The bell made a sound and if they did not hear the bell it meant the priest was dead. There is not a Hebrew word for pomegrante the Hebrew word is haman. The meaning is fertil life. It means to rise up. God says He inhabits the praise of His people. You have to make noise. Noises of praise. You can not enter His presence silently AMEN. BIRDS PRAISE hIM. COWS PRAISE hIM. HE SAYS IF WE DON'T PRAISE HIM THE ROCKS WILL RISE UP AND PRAISE HIM. I don't want any rock taking my place.

YOU CAN NOT PULL A SNAKE BACKWARDS

My thoughts were sifting through some memories. I remembered a story from when I had three small children and we were living in an old farm house which needed much repair. We kept the upstairs closed off because there were missing floorboards which needed replaced. One day my husband heard the sounds of slide bump slide bump and went to check it out. There was a six foot black snake under the floor boards with about three inches of tail sticking out. My husband was a very strong man and he grabbed the snake with a pair of vice grips and tried to pull the snake backwards and he could not, no matter how much strength he applied. The only way you can pull a snake backwards is if you can lift him up first because his under scales will catch on the boards and anchor him. You simply can not pull a snake backwards and it occurred to me that is exactly what the snake does to us. He pulls us backwards into our past and our failures. He says see there....... all the times you prayed and God did not listen and something died, a loved one, health, finances, a dream etc. He tries to defeat us with our past to impair us traveling with success to our future. My husband had to tear up the floor at the snakes head to get him out. We too have to go for the head of the snake and remind him we have no past. It is not only forgiven by God but forgotten as well. No you can not pull a snake backwards but you can cut off his head......just some life memories....God bless, Linda

DAVID'S PLEA TO GOD

I WAS CONSIDERING ONE OF DAVID'S PLEAS TO GOD THIS AM. He said, Lord return to me the joy of my salvation. Do you remember the day the Lord found you and chose you and called you to Him? I was 8 years old when He chose me. I remember even as that young child the relief I felt when He lifted that burden of sin from my shoulders and took it unto Himself. The pure joy I felt when He washed me with His blood of forgiveness and mercy. I felt like I could fly. I was sooooo loved. After years of word and worship and teaching others sometimes we too need to pray, Lord return to me the joy of my salvation. God bless, Linda

PRAISE THE ORIGINAL CRACK

We live in an age of addictions...food..drugs....cigerettes...facebook....destructive relationships...religious spirits...pride....but I am here to tell you PRAISE IS THE ORIGINAL CRACK! When they circled the wall God told them to be silent and at the designated time to blow the trumpets and shout a word of praise and they would see cracks in the walls. There is a power in pure praise that ought to crack the walls of the worlds addictions and set us free. God bless, Linda
