'Chosen by the King'

  For a number of years now, I have just loved a song called 'Same God'. I believe it was written by Brandon Lake and Elevation Worship, but the version I tend to listen to is by Spencer Bell at Ramp in Alabama. Every morning between 3 am and 5 am I get up to spend time with the Lord and this one song is one of my go to's. While in worship a few weeks ago, I was just singing away to the entire song when I got to the verses that say  I'm calling on the God of David Who made a shepherd boy courageous I may not face Goliath But I've got my own giants   I heard the Lord say, " This is no longer true. Daughter, I want you to tell My children who are living in this time that I see them as courageous. In fact, just as courageous as the David of My Bible. You, My children, are facing daily threats from Giants that many cannot even see, except for a remnant of My own who have been awakened to what is actually taking place in the spiritual realm, and you have discerned w...

As I was reading 2 Kings chapter 8 recently, I found that the Lord quickly began speaking to me and dropped these words into my spirit. My children, the fullness of time has finally come for My faithful remnant. Yes, in the days ahead, you, My obedient children, will feel and experience My love, favor, and power to restore what has been stolen. The enemy has taken much from you, but I, your Father, am here to restore the years that the cankerworm has stolen ( Joel 2:25 ). I did not say a few things, My children. No, I say, get ready because I will restore the years.  Look to My word in 2 Kings and read about Sister Shunammite. For there is much that people miss when they read her story. They focus on Elisha bringing her son back to life. Yes, this was a miracle in her time, and many of you have experienced miracles, but just as it was for her, there has been a huge gap between miracles happening in your lives, and some of you have wondered if you would ever see My hand in your life...

  Jeremiah 1:7 NKJV But the Lord said to me: “ Do not say , ‘I am a youth,’ For you shall go to all to whom I send you, And whatever I command you, you shall speak. A very strange thought came to me a few weeks ago, and I immediately got checked on it because of Jeremiah 1:7 that came up in my spirit, reminding me that the institutional church has ALWAYS brushed aside children and the young. Not that there is anything wrong with Sunday School, because certainly there are some who actually teach children how to love Jesus and follow the Holy Spirit, but many of us of the older generation (I am 63 at the writing of this blog) have spent years in church where the children are quite honestly rushed off so that the adults can enjoy the service without the noise or distractions. I too fell into this pit, so I am not pointing fingers here, but as the years have gone by, I have come to realize something mind-blowing to many in the church. There is no evidence that when a child accepts ...
