Greetings in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Grace and Peace be to you and your house!

How we seem to find ourselves in the middle of a tremendous onslaught of the powers of darkness in these last days. It seems as though the saints of God are being attacked like never before! The devil continues to wage his attacks on the children of God in this final hour to try and destroy their faith in this final hour before the coming of the Lord, to try and "weaken" your faith in a Holy and loving God!

These past several months our own personal trials and fires have driven us deeper into the love of God like never before. We shut down the Newsletters for a season to not only let God speak to our hearts and draw us closer into his heart, but to get a "fresh" word from the lord for his body as well. The Lord has a special way of dealing with each and every one of us. Each one of God's children are precious to Him and He will continue to purge us until there is no longer any confidence in the "flesh", but our trust will be completely on the Lord. Paul said in II Corinthians 1:8-10 WE WERE UNDER GREAT PRESSURE, FAR BEYOND OUR ABILITY TO ENDURE, SO THAT WE DESPAIRED EVEN OF LIFE. INDEED IN OUR HEARTS WE FELT THE SENTENCE OF DEATH. BUT THIS HAPPENED THAT WE MIGHT NOT RELY ON OURSELVES BUT ON GOD, WHO RAISES THE DEAD. HE HAS DELIVERED US FROM SUCH A DEADLY PERIL, AND, HE WILL DELIVER US, AS YOU HELP US BY YOUR PRAYERS (PROVERBS 3:5) TELLS US THIS... TRUST IN THE LORD WITH ALL YOUR HEART AND LEAN NOT UPON YOUR OWN UNDERSTANDING; IN ALL YOUR WAYS ACKNOWLEDGE HIM AND HE WILL MAKE YOUR PATHS STRAIGHT.

Go with me for a moment to (PSALMS 27), ..Look at the cry of. David in a time of personal attack from the enemy! ... (vs.1). "THE LORD IS MY LIGHT AND MY SALVATION WHOM SHALL I FEAR? (THE ANSWER IS NO ONE), THE LORD IS THE STRONGHOLD OF MY LIFE, OF WHOM SHALL I BE AFRAID? WHEN EVIL MEN (OR DEVILS) ADVANCE AGAINST ME TO DEVOUR MY FLESH, WHEN MY ENEMIES AND FOES ATTACK ME, THEY WILL STUMBLE AND FALL. THOUGH AN ARMY BESIEGE ME (THIS MEANS TO BE CUT OFF FROM ALL SUPPLIES AND HELP), MY HEART WILL NOT FEAR; THOUGH WAR BREAK OUT AGAINST ME, EVEN THEN WILL I BE CONFIDENT. (THAT IS, THAT GOD IS IN CONTROL). ONE THING I ASK OF THE LORD, THIS IS WHAT I SEEK; THAT I MAY DWELL IN THE HOUSE OF THE LORD ALL THE DAYS OF MY LIFE, TO GAZE UPON THE BEAUTY OF THE LORD AND TO SEEK HIM IN HIS TEMPLE".

Beloved what all this is saying to you and me is this.. No matter what is happening to you right now, in your health, your marriage, your finances, relationships, torment of mind and soul. it doesn't matter our God is greater than all these things! he is truly king of the flood!!!

Praise God what a glorious hope! Paul said "these things happened to us (God allowed them), so that.. we might learn not to rely any longer on our own resources! But on the wisdom and the power and the love of God's delivering power to take us through and to work the character of Jesus Christ in us! He wants us to come to the place where we truly know that He is in control, and no amount of human intervention can bring eternal change! Only when we submit and yield to the dealings and wisdom of the Holy Spirit can we Know the heart of God and walk in the "MIND OF CHRIST". All our struggling and whining and complaining will get us is more trouble! The lord wants us to be a people who, even when we "DESPAIR IN FEAR OF OUR VERY LIFE" AND FEEL WE HAVE NO MORE ABILITY TO ENDURE WE KNOW THIS HAPPENED THAT WE MIGHT NOT RELY UPON OURSELVES, BUT ON GOD WHO RAISES THE DEAD!!!    GLORY TO GOD FOREVER MORE!!!!

No matter what you are going through right now, your loving Father in heaven knows all about it! He is going to deliver you and bring you through it! and if you have yielded to him, you will be more like Jesus! You say I've prayed and have done all I know to do! Praise God, STAND AND WAIT UPON THE LORD! YOU WILL SEE THE ANSWER TO YOUR PRAYERS! There are godly saints of God that have cancer, trouble in their marriages, perhaps a lost mate, fire, trials, inner yearnings and desires. BUT THE LORD HAS DELIVERED THEM FROM FEAR, FROM DISCOURAGEMENT, TORMENT, DISCONTENTMENT, BITTERNESS, PRAISE GOD WHAT A DELIVERANCE! WHAT A HEALING! I THANK GOD FOR DIVINE HEALING AND BELIEVE IN IT STRONGLY! BUT THERE IS A HEALING OF THE HEART, A DELIVERANCE OF THE SINFUL ATTITUDES IN OUR HEARTS THAT TURNS US INTO DISCONTENTED GRUMBLERS WHO FIND FAULT WITH EVERYONE AND EVEN WITH GOD! Why have so many who have truly walked with God in righteousness, in heart purity, still go through life with an apparent problem? Doesn't God care? Certainly He does! But we are so programmed to look at the outside, we sometimes fail to realize that God wants to work from the "INSIDE OUT". No matter what your trouble is. No matter how difficult, how hard, how burdensome it may seem, God will deliver you! (PSALMS 33:22) SAYS..: MAY YOUR UNFAILING LOVE REST UPON US, 0 LORD, EVEN AS WE PUT OUR HOPE IN YOU".... BELOVED WE ARE TRULY DELIVERED BY HIS LOVE!!
