I love Jesus!

Yup! That’s right, I am in love with the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords! I just wanted to share that today, because when you love someone you can’t keep it to yourself. I knew since the beginning of the year that God wants His children to return to Him, our first love. He is love, if it were not for Him, how would we love others? We couldn't’t and we would’t. Anyway, our time is precious. And it is so precious to spend time with Jesus, that time is precious to Him when we set aside time just to Worship Him without begging or asking for this that and the third. You think about it when your in love, you want to be with that person all the time and tell them how you feel right? So why would we not do that with the Lord?

I am not trying to demise a love relationship between husband and wife, mother or father and child. I look forward to experiencing and giving that love too! There is nothing like the Love of Jesus. I am spending an evening with the lover of my soul! Sometimes you gotta cancel your plans or reschedule them, just to be with HIM! I encourage you to do so, you will not regret your time spent with HIM. I LOVE HIM! I LOVE YOU LORD!!!!!!!

An Invitation from HIM!

One of my YouTube videos I made in the very beginning of this year stated that I wanted to know more about Worship and what it really means. Worship is something we talk about often. especially in the Christian community. I'm learning that Worship is SO much more than singing, dancing, coming to church once a week, singing 2 fast songs, 1 medium pace song, and then a slow song. Don't get me wrong. These are certainly expressions of worship! However, we can't put the Lord in some box or our own plans for worship and then expect Him to follow. He invites us into Worship! He leads it and if I can be honest it has not always been easy for me to trust Holy Spirit to lead! I thank God for growth though! But I want to fully surrender and trust His leadership.

Last night, well this morning rather at 4:45 am I woke up. I heard Him clearly say: "You can get up and Worship me". Ohhhh my goodness, I SO would love to tell you that I jumped out of my warm bed this fall morning, but I did not! I have to admit, I now regret it. No extra hour of sleep can even compare to the rewards of sacrificing sleep to Worship Him. What I'm most disappointed about is because HE invited ME to Worship this time. There have been times, that I set my alarm clock to get up early or have scheduled times to spend in praise and worship and He certainly honors that and I have been blessed. BUT it is different when He invites you versus when you expected it!

It makes me wonder, what did He have to say, what would have happened if I had only got out of my bed! I don't take this for granted and have already prayed "Lord please give me strength when you call me early in the morning or late in the night, to GET UP". When He invites us, OH there is something He has to say! ***sigh*** I have learned from this morning and look forward to telling you God willing when He does it again.

When is the last time He called you and invited you into Worship? Did you respond?

There is more

I woke up this morning with one thought on my mind: Something is missing. And when something is missing, this means there is more! I’m in such a unique season, it’s like I don’t know what is next. Every day is a day of faith. Have you ever tried to do things that worked before to resolve something, but when you did it again it did not work? Like doing old things and ways in a new season. It won’t work. This makes me think of the new/old wine skins scripture that Jesus talked about. (Mark 2:18-22).

I really believe that our deepest longings can only be filled by God. We were created to be in His presence from the beginning of time and even though sin had separated us from that, the desire is still there. Intense desire. There so many other things I could say it is that would fulfill this longing: The new job I have been looking and believing God for, the blessed husband and family of my own that I deeply desire that God has promised, ministry affecting millions of lives, family members and friends getting saved, etc. etc. I look forward to these prayers and desires becoming realized in my life any moment now and I know they will bring joy to my life for sure, but even then, there is more. I can’t expect these people that I love and positions to be my all, that’s like putting them in the place of god!

Someone that I really look up to and who is a mentor to me (even though I have never formally met her) is Joann Rosario. On her twitter page one day recently she put “Nothing compares to the real presence of our living God.” Lately singing has not done it, dancing has not done it, screaming to the top of my lungs have not done it, crying has not done it. Although these outward expressions are certainly responses to His presence, there comes a time where there is more required. We can’t “think” our way into God’s presence, lol. That may sound funny but sometimes I try to conger up what I’m gonna do and He is like “No daughter, it’s not by might or by power, but by my spirit. I know that I am experiencing this because He requires more in this season and I look forward to the breakthrough in His presence. I believe that I will never be the same again, EVER, but there is a cost to really remaining in His presence and being used to usher in His presence.

Sometimes, like now as I’m typing this I feel like “Lord, I’m tired, what do I need to do” and I hear Him saying so clearly, “How much do you want it, how intense is your desire”? Think about it, when we really want something we go after that thing. Why would we not do the very same if not more to get to God. His arms are wide open! I just keep seeing this picture in my head of me running to Jesus with all my heart and might, but yet in this picture he’s right there with me.

His Beauty is Amazing

Beautiful, Handsome, Pretty, Fine, Dime, Gorgeous and so on………
These are just a few words that are used to describe someone that is attractive. Have you ever thought about or seen the Beauty of God before? I did, last night. Remember, when Moses was in the presence of God and although He could not see His face, just being in His presence made Moses have a Radiant face. So much that He had to wear a veil as he went back down to share with the children of Israel, what the Lord revealed to Him.

Last night I saw a piece of a picture of God’s beauty, it’s hard to explain in words. Hollywood, the media and music and even ourselves, we have commercialized beauty. We know what natural beauty is (in the natural) and God does manifest His beauty here on earth, but God’s beauty is FAR beyond the here and now that we see. It’s like I could feel it and see it at the same time. I’m convinced that God is a master artist. He has made everything beautiful in it’s time. A perfect picture painted on His canvas.

What the world may see as messy or not perfect, is God’s perfect masterpiece.
Jesus is the greatest example of this. His ministry was not what the “world” would see as glamorous. Many where plotting to kill Him from the time He started His ministry, He had no home to lay His head, and calvary He was beaten, stripped, spat on, and I could go on. But this was God’s masterpiece.

There is a song that Kim Walker and Jesus Culture sings called “He loves us”. To some, the lyrics may seem really strong, but to me it shows the beauty of God’s love and how even when things in our lives seem messy and unpretty, when we remain in Him, He is creating a beautiful masterpiece:

He is jealous for me
Love's like a hurricane,
I am a tree
Bending beneath the weight of
His wind and mercy
When all of a sudden, I am unaware of these afflictions eclipsed by glory
and I realize just how beautiful You are and how great your affections are for me.

Oh, how He loves us so
Oh, how He loves us
How He loves us so.
(x2)

Yeah, He loves us
Oh, how He loves us
Oh, how He loves us
Oh, how He loves.
(x2)

We are His portion and
He is our prize,
Drawn to redemption
by the grace in His eyes
If grace is an ocean, we're all sinking
So heaven meets earth like a sloppy wet kiss and my heart turns
violently inside of my chest
I don't have time to maintain these regrets when I think about the way


He loves us,
Oh, how He loves us
Oh, how He loves us
OH, how He loves
(x2)

Yeah, He loves us
Oh, how He loves us
Whoa, how He loves us
Whoa, how He loves.

Yeah, He loves us
He loves us
He loves us
He loves.

Yeah, He loves us
Whoa, how He loves us
Whoa, how He loves us
Whoa, how He loves

He loves us,
Whoa, how He loves us
Whoa, how He loves us
Whoa, how He loves

The Power of GOD in the Dance!

I had a conversation with my Dance ministry leader, she shared with me an Awesome testimony. I would like to share with you:

10 years ago, she was ministering with a dance team that traveled different places in the state of Maryland. 10 years later, she got back connected with this dance team and there was a lady that walked up to her. The sister shared that she had been at the event that my leader ministered at and at that time was in a cult. She told her that the dance she saw her do, God used to help free her from the chains of being in that cult. To God be the glory, she is now set free and a part of the Lords' family.

I share this because, it's not us that is powerful, but it's the Lord working through us that gives us power to trample on scorpions and serpents. This testimony really built me back up because honestly lately I had been feeling kind of dry regarding my passion for dance ministry. These are the times we need to press into GOD and drawer closer to Him to see what He would have us to do.

There are no limits to what God can do through us. He has made us all uniquely and He wants to use us exactly like that: Uniquely. Not a carbon copy. Because what He has put in you, He has put there to use you mightily!!!

Let's ask God to give us our fire back and passion for Him through the dance or any worship arts gift He has given us, so that souls can be won, Hearts can be healed, those bound can be set free and so that He will get the glory!!!

God bless!

You have come to royal position, for such a time as this!

Esther 4:14 "For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your father's family will perish. And who knows but that you have come to royal position for such a time as this?"

16b "I will go to the king, even though it is against the law. And if I perish, I perish".

Most of us have heard of the story of Queen Esther and maybe even seen the movie. If not, I truly encourage you both men and women, boys and girls to read it. It's a story of obedience, boldness and royalty!

It's like almost every girls dream: Esther went from being an orphan girl to the chosen Queen of the King of Persia. Even every man's dream to find that beautiful Queen to share your life with she is the most beautiful woman to you!

What's so amazing is that it all happened so suddenly. Esther a Jewish girl, probably had planned to live a simple life: serving God and being faithful to her elders/mentors, marry a Jewish man and raise her children up to be faithful to God as well. Not that this would not have been honorable, but God had other plans. Isn't that just like Him, to switch things up on us! He's so marvelous!

Well, as the story builds up before Esther (Hadassah) had to go through (10) months of beauty treatments, along with all the other beautiful virgins to prepare to meet the King and hopefully be the one chosen by Him! After seeing her the King was most attracted to her and she won favor with Him right away and the Royal crown was placed on her head! Her King threw a banquet for her and celebrated her throughout the land (he was excited about his woman)!

Queen Esther finds out through her cousin Mordecai that there was a wicked plot to destroy the Jews by one of the Kings' nobles. Her people needed her help, even though it could very well cost her life. She at first was hesitant, knowing the "protocol" and "traditions" of the royal palace/throne. I'm sure she was just fine being beautiful, the queen and having her maidens with her.

Here is where our scripture picks up and something very important both you and I can learn: What places does God have us right now, what relationships has He blessed us with, what job/assignment has He given us. He has prepared us and shaped us for exactly where we are right now. But it is really not about have the position, the title, the prestige; He has something for us to do and it will require faith and boldness to do us. He is requiring us to speak up, to go forth and maximize the area of influence He has us in right now. Not to sit around and be comfortable with where we are, going with the flow when it's clearly not what God wants or allowing things to continue, when we know the Lord wants to intervene through us.

Notice what Mordecai told Esther in verse 14. Deliverance would still come for the Jews even if she did not carry through with this assignment. God would have raised somebody else up. He did not need Esther to do the assignment but He chose her to do it because He wanted to. There is a difference. Thank God she yielded and went forth in boldness, trusting God all the way not knowing exactly what the end result would be. He wants the same willingness for us, to trust Him that He goes before us in any assignment we have been chosen to do and it will not always be easy! BUT GOD. When we obey and do the difficult things that nobody else wants to do, that He has called us to do; this is when we see His power, provision and miracles and a whole race, generation, denomination, etc. Can be saved!

Just like Queen Esther, she was placed in this royal position to complete this assignment. This is why the Lord has placed you where you are, for such a time as this, no coincidence.

My brother and sister God wants to use you, that's right you! For mighty works, don't look down on assignments He gives you no matter if they seem small or big; Jesus wants to save someone through you. It could be one child or an entire nation. You may be a coach for little league or a president of a fortune 500 company. You could be caring for your elderly parents or the President of the United States! You could be a high school/college/middle school student. Whatever it is, will you go? Will you do what HE has called you to do? And not be pressured by what's popular to conform to the world, but stand for righteousness and holiness?

I'm faced with the same question today, to do something that is not ordinary and not very popular. But I must do it. I must go, in Jesus name! Let's go!!!

What God desires from His children

The love of God is so beautiful and it's real. He loves us SO! It's because of HIM that we can even love others! Tonight, I had the assignment to lead the weekly prayer call we have for the intercessory prayer ministry from my church. I had my nice little agenda for the night planned out and everything. As we began to praise and worship the Lord, I felt that He wanted us to continue. 30 minutes past by, 45, then an hour. I then heard Him say: " You are in my presence, I love my children to tell me how they feel about me". I shared this with everyone on the call and we began to just confess who He is to us and how grateful we are for Him in and through our lives. I mean, where would we be without Him??!

We were so blessed by what GOD did tonight, I had to throw my little pre-planned agenda to the side and let Holy Spirit have His way! God's plans are far greater than any plan we could think up ourselves. He's an exceeding and abundant God! Then He began to just bless us with words of affirmation, promise and His power! It was Awesome!

Even after I got off the call, I kept thinking about what He shared with me about being in His presence. Then I had a quick vision of God inviting us into this beautiful house; His house. He was smiling so big when He opened the door! He welcomed us into this beautiful home. On the inside of His house there were so many beautifully wrapped gifts in there. We were overwhelmed once we got in there. His hand was out the whole time. There was one person that entered into the house and they went straight for the gifts, after the initial greeting with God, she went to the gifts and beginning grabbing as many as she could! She did not even look at God, then she began shoving them in her car until her car was overflowing. After this she backed out of the driveway and zoomed off with all these beautiful gifts!

There was another person who walked into God's house and she initially seemed to look at the gifts then quickly remembered whose house she was in. She then went back, took God's hand smiled with Him, then sat down and talked with Him and the gifts were laying all around them; but she focused on Him!

I wonder how many times, we have entered into the presence of the Lord, just to ask all of our requests and receive, receive, receive. Of course God will bless us, He has many gifts for us on earth and in heaven. But more than anything, once in His presence He desires intimacy and fellowship with Him. In that vision, those gifts did not go anywhere when she was spending time with the Lord, they were right there laying around waiting to be opened. But her priority was to spend time with Him and put Him first above all other things.

Let's make it a point to seek His face, before we seek His hand!
