The Connected Life ~ Word

John 15: 1-8  “I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. 2 Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit. 3 You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you. 4 Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me. 5 “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing. 6 If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned. 7 If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you   will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. 8 By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples. This morning, while worshipping, the Lord showed me how disconnected many of ...

The Fog ~ Cat Dream

Image
  I had a dream before I woke up this morning that started out a bit scary. I was in a large house. No, it was not the house I am in today. I did not recognize the house, but in the dream, it felt as though it was where I lived. A darkness and a fog all of a sudden rolled in, kind of in an unusual way for the time of day. I mean it was noticeable. It actually felt creepy. In the dream, I knew something was going on and that it wasn't normal. I began walking around the house, making sure windows were locked. Sometimes checking them twice.  Even though it was hard to see beyond my own property line, I did see a few things that seemed impossible. The first thing that I saw was an enormous cat. I don't mean just a big cat, and not even a lion or tiger. I mean, I can't even explain how big this thing was, walking in the distance as if it were walking over the tops of trees. Huge, Massive, very, very big is all I can say. I guess it would be the size of a very large dinosaur if I...

Be Strong & Courageous ~ Word

  Definition of Courage in the Bible In the Bible, courage is defined as steadfast trust in God that empowers a person to act faithfully despite fear, danger, or uncertainty, grounded in God’s presence and promises  My children, I say to you today that in the days ahead you must be strong and courageous, for many things will try to overtake you and pull you into fear, but I have told you over and over again not to fear, for fear is the opposite of faith. Fear is faith that things will go wrong or be bad. Fear is what opens you up to sickness, disease, and poverty. For didn't I tell Job that the thing that he greatly feared would come upon him?  Therefore, FEAR NOTHING, for I am with you and I will never leave you or forsake you, My precious children.  2 Chronicles 32:7 7 “Be strong and courageous; do not be afraid nor dismayed before the king of Assyria, nor before all the multitude that is with him; for there are more with us than with him. You are the apple of My...
