A dream

“I can never escape from your Spirit! I can never get away from your presence! If I go up to heaven, you are there; if I go down to the grave, you are there. If I ride the wings of the morning, if I dwell by the farthest oceans, even there your hand will guide me, and your strength will support me.” Psalms‬ ‭139‬:‭7‬-‭10‬ ‭NLT‬‬

You might be a person who wants to escape the presence of the Lord so you can indulge in sin, but you cannot. If you have made Jesus Your saviour You belong to Him.

He will pursue you and teach you that His love is far greater than any sin. His presence in your life is worth more than diamonds and gold. His presence is sweet and full of His love.

Throughout this whole psalm David speaks about the presence of God. He said to know God is surrounding him and always there is too wonderful for him to comprehend, and it is!

Last night I had a dream about a woman who found herself alone and needing work. She received word that a job was available for her in a certain church. She went to that church and there was a meeting in progress. She went in a saw her father and sat with him. He loves her and cuddled her. She loved this but was concerned about her job and pulled away from his embrace and sat opposite him hoping he would not be upset with her.

Scene two she was working in the offices of the pastor and his team. There was a woman there who despised her and kept accusing her of things she did not do. The pastor, a man I knew, defended her on one such occasion but the nasty woman kept picking at her.

I woke up knowing that the father was Father God and that I should pray for the woman that the pastor would see the venom in the accuser and continue to defend the woman and that the woman would remember her father.

Our Father is just like this wanting to love on us. We should surrender and enjoy His love. He will deal with the accuser. Amen!

Doing to others

““Do to others whatever you would like them to do to you. This is the essence of all that is taught in the law and the prophets.” Matthew‬ ‭7‬:‭12‬ ‭NLT‬‬ This verse, in some bibles begins with a ‘therefore’ and comes after verses describing how God the Father gives good gifts to His children.  It infers generosity towards others. God is our example. Forgiveness must be the centre of our attitude. If it is at the centre then annoyance and offence at others is overridden with generosity. It is also the centre when Jesus also teaches: if a man demands your shirt, give him your cloak also ( Matt 5:40). To be able to behave like this you must be secure in God. He is your source and supply. Amen.

Guard your heart

“So above all, guard the affections of your heart, for they affect all that you are. Pay attention to the welfare of your innermost being, for from there flows the wellspring of life.” Proverbs‬ ‭4‬:‭23‬ ‭TPT‬‬ I want to focus on the last sentence here, because it is explains why the first. I have an old friend who used to say to me, “Di let peace be your governor”. It was easier said than done. I was going through some very difficult times when he told me that. However, he was right. Yesterday was a difficult day in part. I had determined to give my body a day of rest. I walked several kilometres to church and attended the prayer meeting. Unfortunately, after the prayer meeting I was best by refugees wanting my help. It became very frustrating and by the time the service started my insides were a mess. Afterwards I knew I should have waited until after church to talk to them and I should have places boundaries in place. Even though I do not represent all the refugees they see me and c...

Christ is enough

“For the whole law can be summed up in this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” But if you are always biting and devouring one another, watch out! Beware of destroying one another.” ‭‭Galatians‬ ‭5‬:‭14‬-‭15‬ ‭NLT‬‬ In the book of Galatians Paul is addressing religiosity. The Galatians are being deceived into following a doctrine that tells them they must be circumcised as well as receiving Christ.  It is interesting that when people become convinced to be religious they then start destroying one another. Self-righteousness has that effect. We start to believe ‘I am so good, you are less than me because you do not do what I do!’ Paul’s whole message is Christ is enough! In Him is all the freedom we need. There is nothing more I can do to be a Christian. I must follow Him! Amen! Christ is enough for me!
