"The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me, because the LORD has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the LORD's favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, and provide for those who grieve in Zion — to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair."~from ISAIAH 61 Bible verse for this Blog

APOLOGY to READERS who followed a SEARCH to HERE & didn't find it

On July 18, 2017, I drafted almost 3000 blog posts that I had published since 2008 when I began blogging, rather than edit each one. So if you clicked here from somewhere else and ended up with the post unavailable or error, I am sorry but this is why. It'd be too much work for me to go back and fix them. There's an explanation on 7/19/17 as I'm still learning.

WOW ~ "HEARING GOD'S HEART"



the You Version reading plan that
I'm doing for October for
30 days
"Hearing God's Heart"

song: "Hear My Heart" - Sheri Easter


... "Sometimes I feel no one's ever been in this place before
This is hard and I'm not sure that I can do this anymore
I know some day I"ll look back, and all this won't seem real
But Lord right now I need you to know just how I feel

Chorus:
When there are no words to say and no prayer that I can pray
hear my heart,When I don't have strength to try 
and I've cried all I can cry hear my heart
Cause you know every fear and every doubt I cannot speak
You know all the ways I need you and all the ways I'm weak
So I'll be quiet so you can hear my heart.

Verse 2:
Every now and then I recall a simple phrase or melody
It comforts and it quiets, lifts me up and then it carries me
Far above the pain and hurt I think will never end
The song speaks words I cannot and it calms the fears within

Chorus:
When there are no words to say and no prayer that I can pray 
hear my heart 
When I don't have strength to try and I've cried all I can cry 
hear my heart
Cause you know every fear and every doubt I cannot speak
You know all the ways I need you and all the ways I'm weak
So I'll be quiet so you can hear my heart.
Lord I'll be quiet so you can hear my heart ❤️ 

because I am working on my heart
not just my wounded heart

but much more

and since I attended a recent livestream event (my 1st live one)I've returned to a place and a ministry that I enjoyed while in MX 

"REVIVE OUR HEARTS"

with

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth

so, of course, "reviving my heart" means listening for God's heart and being restored; because I so want to reflect better the beauty and heart of Christ to my world (those around me) which is only possible through His Grace ... this I truly know.

As I take my "Walk On Weds." and "Worship On Weds.", press into hear His gentle "Whisper On Weds." as I go to His "Word On Weds.", I can't help but realize that God wants to prepare my heart ... be concerned with my spiritual heart condition, besides my physical heart (with aging and high blood pressure) ... since we all share a family history of "heart disease" (sin). Calling upon the Great Physician to cure/heal our deceived, diseased hearts - in need of Jesus doing a radical heart surgery - to cleanse and transform me. I need some serious "heart" work to function properly, remove blockage, and deal with this heart condition, which starts, as you know with admitting we need some help, work, or whatever, and allow our hearts to be searched as we place our hearts in the hands of the Master's touch. 

How can I expect to hear His heart, His Whisper, if there's blockage? If I continue in the lies or believing the lies, I'm not listening to His Truth and speaking His Truth over me and every situation I encounter. I truly want to walk with Him and hear His Whisper, believe what I say I believe in my heart and stop any thoughts to the contrary. 

"We come closer to God and approach Him with an open heart, fully convinced by faith that nothing will keep us at a distance from Him. For our hearts have been sprinkled with blood to remove impurity and we have been freed from an accusing conscience and now we are clean, unstained, and presentable to God inside and out!" Hebrews 10:22, The Passion Translation


{even this was in my email from The Passion Translation of "I Hear His Whisper"} so it must mean I am "hearing His Whisper" because many sources are lining up with me "Hearing God's Heart" and I believe He wants to speak to your heart also! Just get alone with Him, with nothing else to interrupt, and listen

I'm looking to have a

HEALTHIER

HEART

and

LIFE

in the coming year(s)

if God tarries

I

want my

HEART

in-tune 

with

HIS HEART


I imagine, if the weather permits, getting out and taking an actual Walk On Weds. might help both physical and spiritual hearts to hear and have better health conditions, so leave that phone (or other devices) behind and just spend some time with Him - He's been waiting for just YOU!

  1. I do so want my heart to be open to the Lord and able to express and receive what He wills for me...your analogy of heart trouble is spot on....and one I needed to read today...bless you, sis!

    1. Karen, If ever there was a heart open to the Lord, it's yours! but as far as expressing and receiving what He wills, that's difficult for all of us. You express His love and encouragement and that is far beyond what so many don't do. None of us need any kind of heart trouble yet somehow we get ourselves into heartache and heart trouble that we need to take care of before we grow cold, weary and worst of all hardened. You are very far from that except perhaps the weary with the heavy load you carry, may Our dear Lord help with each burden either helping to carry or showing you the best way. I trust you will receive and discern much better than I. I rely on you too so please take care of you (along with the other precious loved ones). Lifting them in prayer. I love you Karen!
