ADVERSITY that becomes DESTINY

This prayer came today in my email from Prime Time with God along with Os Hillman's wonderful devotional on "From ADVERSITY to DESTINY"... please read this devotional here and join me in this prayer by Ephesians Four Ministries:

Today's Prayer

Dear God, I come before you today asking for your protection and cover of grace upon marriages.

I pray for every couple who is happy, those who are struggling, and those who may be on the verge of break-up--whatever the case. You instituted marriage and it is not your will for the union to be broken. I pray that eyes will be opened and spouses will be alert to the schemes and temptations Satan throws their way. It may be an 'innocent' flirt; a shoulder to cry on for another man or women; perhaps financial troubles or materialism; disagreements over the household or child rearing or even simple things; lack of respect or selfishness; failure to have priorities straight and keep focus on Jesus as the center of the marriage and each other above others. So many things can pull and chip away at a healthy relationship. May each heart be tender to the prompting of the Holy Spirit and each mind set on the ways of Christ and each soul safe in the surety of your love...so that when temptations come, they will be rejected as we draw near to you. Thank you, Father. In the name of Jesus I pray, amen.



Since I'm headed back to Mexico, this seemed appropriate as I pray for many concerns along my way...and this lines up with two wonderful people I met in Ankeny, Iowa last night, who prayed with me and for my husband's salvation... God is at work and though the enemy may try to discourage us with "adversity" all around, we must stand on God's Word, claim it & believe it in Jesus Name.
[Thank you Dave & Patty for standing with me & being a sign once more of God's AMAZING GRACE, fire & power...may He bless you both and your ministry!] Hopefully I can share more about this Spirit led encounter & ministry & God's Divine appointment soon! meanwhile if I've peaked your interest, you could visit the Prophetic Ministries of Tom Stamman. I know it will have great IMPACT.God bless you & your week!

This is the day for Weekly Memory Verse also so head on over to the Power of Your Love & check out the verses! I am dwelling in the one on PEACE still but the new one for this past week on the WORD is very powerful & significant!

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
He was in the beginning with God.
John 1:1-2 (NASB)

Not bad for on the road and it sure stays with you...if you go to my Memory Verses on the right sidebar, you can check on the verse for this week or just come & see my Word Filled Wednesday or go to The Power of Your Love!

Doing this from a Rest Stop and I'm so thankful to DOT for making this possible. Hoping this works & you all are blessed! Tomorrow Father's Love Letter should post as scheduled though I have not added more than my own prayer.

"MY IDENTITY IN CHRIST"

WHO I AM IN CHRIST
THROUGH HIS EYES ... and HIS WORD

Declare these daily! Claim & believe them for they are written in His Love letter to you (the part in parentheses comes from the Bible).

Renamed by me as "The Tree" instead of "The Bell" because I did not have the shape of the bell but a tree when I finished.


THE
'TREE'
I KNOW
WHO I AM

I am God's child (John 1:12)

I am Christ's friend (John 15:15)

I am united with the Lord(1 Cor. 6:17)

I am bought with a price(1 Cor. 6:19-20)

I am a saint (set apart for God). (Eph. 1:1)

I am a personal witness of Christ. (Acts 1:8)

I am the salt & light of the earth (Matt.5:13-14)

I am a member of the body of Christ(1 Cor 12:27)

I am free forever from condemnation ( Rom. 8: 1-2)

I am a citizen of Heaven. I am significant ( Phil.3:20)

I am free from any charge against me (Rom. 8:31 -34)

I am a minister of reconciliation for God(2 Cor.5:17-21)

I have access to God through the Holy Spirit (Eph. 2:18)

I am seated with Christ in the heavenly realms (Eph. 2:6)

I cannot be separated from the love of God( Rom.8:35-39)

I am established, anointed, sealed by God (2 Cor.1:21-22)

I am assured all things work together for good (Rom. 8: 28)

I have been chosen and appointed to bear fruit (John 15:16 )

I may approach God with freedom and confidence (Eph. 3: 12 )

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me (Phil. 4:13)

I am the branch of the true vine, a channel of His life (John 15: 1-5)

I am God's temple (1 Cor. 3: 16 ). I am complete in Christ (Col. 2: 10)

*I am hidden with Christ in God (Col. 3:3). I have been justified

(Romans 5:1) I am God's co-worker (1 Cor.. 3:9; 2 Cor 6:1).

I am God's workmanship(Eph. 2:10 ) I am confident

that the good works God has begun in me

will be perfected.(Phil 1: 5)

I have been redeemed

and forgiven (Col. 1:14).

I have been adopted

as God's child*

(Eph 1:5)

I am rooted

and established

in Christ

(Eph 3:17)

I belong

to God

Do you

know

who you are!?


[this is suppose to be in the shape of a bell but the last part* did not fit that way, 2 verses together from star to star, to see it correctly go here.

When I was done the best I could form it, it looked more like a tree & I added the last verse above & the 3 verses below, for the TREE, whereas usually it tells you to "keep this bell ringing -pass it on"]


I will say,

"Keep this TREE planted & growing,

rooted & established in Christ"

Pass it on


The fruit of the righteous is a TREE of LIFE

and s/he who wins souls is wise.

Proverbs 11:30


BE LIKE THIS!


S/He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever s/he does prospers.

Psalm 1:3


And I pray that YOU, being rooted and established in love,

may have power, together with all believers, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love

that surpasses knowledge that YOU may be filled to the measure of all

fullness of God.

Ephesians 3:17b (NIV) emphasis mine



"The LORD bless you and keep you;

the LORD make His face shine upon you

and be gracious to you;

the LORD turn His face toward you and give you peace.."

Numbers 6:24-26


"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and

He will direct your path." (Proverbs 3:5,6)

DO YOU KNOW JESUS?

I believe that my MAZES, MESSES, & MIRACLES ...aMAZING GRACE would not be complete without offering this GREAT opportunity to MEET my BEST FRIEND FOREVER: Jesus Christ.
I feel that the best way is to start with Proverbs 31 Ministry: Just Click and be linked
http://proverbs31.gospelcom.net/doyouknowJesus/doYouKnowJesus.php
Conoces Jesucristo o quieres conocerlo (
con un clic aqui para saber como y conocerlo mejor!!!) Espanol-Proverbios 31.

If you knew Jesus, but gave up your faith or following Him, perhaps it's time to restart your life. He's waiting with open arms.

If you never knew Him as Lord and Savior, please accept my invitation, and follow the steps Proverbs 31 suggests.

If you've struggled throughout your life, or just decided that you can do it on your own, surrender and try Jesus, it's never too late!
