Completely Closing the Armour

  As our son and family came for a visit, we also him and I got busy on nailing netting over the fence to keep the deer population out of our yard.   We thought that we had done a good job with it but to no avail.   One deer had still made it over the fence.   We have no idea how it made it over. Deer are well protected here in Canada. Is your armour sealed? I right away thought about my spiritual armour.   Is it completely sealed away from the attacks of the enemy or the world?   What about lust, anger and lack of love do those murmur in my spirit or my mind?   Is Satan whispering in my ears?   What are my beliefs about self or Christ?   Do they match what the bible teaches? You must start with your relationships.   Are they kept pure? Are you protected from any worldliness?   Satan wants to move slowly and steadily in our lives so that we are completely unaware of his attacks.   He is not called a “serpent” for no reason he has plenty of tricks in his bag.   Even things as inno

You will make it (Mark 4:35-40)

  As the week unfolds: As the week went on, it was clear that the Lord was reminding me that I would make it through the other side. Mark 4:35-40 v. 35 On that day, when evening had come, he said, “Let us go across to the other side” v.36 And leaving the crowd, they took him with them in the boat, just as he was.   And the other boats were with him. v. 37 And a great windstorm arose, and the waves were breaking into the boat, so that the boat was already filling, v.38 But he was in the stern, asleep on the cushion.   And they woke him up and said to him, “Teacher, do you not care that we are perishing?” v.39 And he awoke and rebuked the wind and said to the sea, “Peace! Be still!” v.40 And they were filled with great fear and said to one another, “Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?” Listening to the Holy Spirit: Several times now God had reminded me of these verses through different medium like people, scriptures etc…. Maybe something is y

My New Home

  If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.  Set you minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth.  For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.  When Christ who is your life appears, then you also will appear with him in glory. (Colossians 3:1-4) Not that I should even ask if you Christians are of the earth or of heaven?   Here Paul makes it very clear that our thoughts should be focused on heaven where Christ is with God our heavenly Father in a place of authority.   Does this mean then that if our minds and hearts are not geared toward heaven we would be robbed of that authority?   Most assuredly, if your minds are on earthly things, you become weak in every way and your life is not worth being called a ‘Christian life’.   You are then living the same as the world. It is easy to get caught up in the things of the world without a vision of heaven but look!   Do

Soaring like an Eagle

God created us with an overwhelming desire to soar.  Our desire to develop and use every ounce of potential.  He's placed in us is not egotistical.  He designed us to be tremendously productive and "to mount up with wings like an eagle," realistically dreaming of what He can do with our potential.                                                     Carol Kent (Taken from trvst.world) Sometime ago, it was pointed out to me that there are two kinds of people in this world… Pecking chickens and Soaring eagles.   That was a shock to my system but then I began to think about it and observed. The differences spreads throughout their entire life.   A chicken and an eagle. The pecking chickens are those that want everything so and so and are quite confined to one way of thinking.   They of course never see beyond their coop and are happy with the little that they have. Unbeknownst to the chickens and that is very sad, they have the potential to become eagles if they choos

Back from Vacation

Hello all of you my friends and supporters, We just came back from our holiday up North of British Columbia.  The weather was beautiful, the roads were typical of winter conditions.  But we had a good time with friends and family.  The main goal of our visit was our brand new grandson who turned 1 month as we arrived.  What a sweetheart he is going to be.  His name is Ryley.   Coming up there is some interesting material in the making as the Lord reveals himself to me. We will talk about "waiting on the Lord" and "Worship" I am looking forward to sharing this stuff with you next week Thursday 15 to be exact. By the look of things it seems you all enjoyed the quiz. Please give me some feedback as I would love to hear from all of you. You can write in English, French and Spanish now since I am learning Spanish. Thank you for all the love and prayers.  You are  awesome because God made you that way and he does not make junk.  On the contrary, he uses junk to make somet

What a Comfort!

  What a Comfort! Here I can only but transliterate from the French Bible into English.   The French Bible says it so well:   (Zechariah 2:12) “Whoever attacks you will attack what is most precious to me”.   This is the literal translation of what it says in the French Bible. I thought that personally it was so comforting to that whoever messes up with me will have to face my heavenly Father. In the context he talks about the nations and Israel, but Israel is God’s people as I am as well. In this verse I put myself in the place of Israel and the opponents are the nations. You can also find comfort in this that as a God’s child you are protected like Israel and you are the apple of his eye, the very target of his concern.   It’s only when we see our position with God through the eye of faith that we can appreciate his Presence in our lives. God ahead you can do that appropriately with some of the promises made to God’s people. Also, God promises that the nations will be
