I Choose to Speak Life

Yesterday I went to orientation for a new assignment. Prior to this, I requested a set schedule and never received a response. The Spirit warned me that they never intended to take my petition into consideration. So, because I was now actually on the job, I needed clarification on other things.

As of yet, I had no idea where to report to. (Orientation was in a designated facility but separate from all the other entities.) I got an email from them stating that they never received a request for block scheduling for me. This just confirmed what the Holy Spirit told me because I made the request myself via the same email on 12/29/2021.

I was kind of perturbed, as we travelers can be hundreds of miles from home and feel that it is just a courtesy to extend, as we are fulfilling a need.

A Wandering Mind

While driving home I was upset and thinking on the matter. (An attack of the enemy.) There were so many negative aspects because since this assignment was literally a couple of hours away, I would try and go home as much as possible.

Throughout this I kept saying and thinking that what the enemy (and people with bad motives) thought to bring against me for evil, God is going to turn it for good, to be a blessing.

Admittedly, I did fret at times and complained about the situation to others and this morning as I am communing with the Holy Spirit and reading out of the book of John, I came to John 11: 41-42 when Jesus was raising Lazarus from the dead and He acknowledged and thanked the Heavenly Father for hearing Him. He also made it a point to say that He is speaking it so that others may believe.

The Holy Spirit convicted me and reminded me of Deuteronomy 30:19. Jesus spoke those words in the midst of unbelievers in the natural and spiritual. He was setting the example to choose life.

Learning to Trust God

I had been negative to people about the situation and then I went to God as I was driving home and I was truthful to Him about how I felt and I drove in silence, to listen, to hear Him. He gave me a revelation on what to do in the situation. I thanked and praised Him and it was so profound because it addressed all my concerns, and as long as I am obedient it doesn't matter how they schedule me.

At that moment I thought of 1 Corinthians 10:13. God made a way out!

While I was murmuring, all I needed to do was seek Him. I didn't have to speak on the situation to no one but Him. In most instances, man can't or won't offer a solution and we have also sinned against God.

It was even more clear that when we are patient and pursue Him, His Word is true. 1 Corinthians 10:13!!! I was speaking death on my situation to mere man and He just reinforces the importance of speaking life because whatever we speak, (this is profound) it has to be manifested. I am learning to choose life that I may live!!!

God's Revelation

I must also write about the revelation given concerning John 11: 8-10. The disciples were questioning Jesus returning to Judaea because they had just attempted to stone Him at least three times. He responded that there are 12 hours in a day and he who walks in the day does not stumble, but he that walks in the dark.

It made me ponder our relationship. The Holy Spirit will let us know the dangers, trials, tribulations and intent of the enemy so that we are not walking in darkness. And on the other end of the spectrum, how the enemies of God walk in darkness and always stumble because they have no light. Their deeds are evil. They are spiritually blind and deaf. There plans cannot come to fruition because of obscurity.

Even what they think they are hiding is revealed by God.

This was confirmed and God just said, literally, not to worry about it because that was not a part of our plan, nor will it affect our plan.

God is good!!!

When the LORD Goes Before You!!!

 When the LORD Goes Before You!!! “Know [without any doubt], that the LORD your God is not giving you this good land to possess because of your righteousness, for you are a stiff-necked (stubborn, obstinate) people. Remember [with remorse] and do not forget how you provoked the LORD your God to wrath in the wilderness; from the day you left the land of Egypt until you arrived at this place, you have been rebellious against the LORD. And at Horeb (Sinai) you provoked the LORD to wrath, and the LORD was so angry with you that He would have destroyed you” (Deuteronomy 9: 4-8, AMP). Many of us focus on Moses' fasting for forty days and forty nights. But he had to go back up for a second time, for forty more days and nights, hewing two tablets of stone himself, as he fasted and prayed for the lives of the Israelites, including his brother Aaron. In God’s mercy they spent forty years in the wilderness, and He was not wrong if He would have condemned them to eighty years. Before we procee...

Why Jesus Put Away Distractors!!!

Why Jesus Put Away Distractors!!! Many may not believe this, but the atmosphere is a determinant to the outcome for any situation. The Holy Spirit and prayer brings peace and success in all things. Years ago, and even now, I have had many times when I would ask colleagues for help, and they would say “Okay” and then just keep fraternizing with one another as if I wasn’t there. Then the LORD would speak to my spirit, annoyed with their behavior saying, “You don’t need them. We will figure it out together”. And when we accomplished the task, these same nurses would look shocked and appalled. Teamwork is critical in healthcare. Brainstorming, collaboration, and critical thinking is vital. Particularly in emergent situations. But what I have noticed is that many believe that they can damage your esteem or make you feel less than by ignoring your very presence. This may be done throughout a hierarchy. But it only speaks to their psyches. Or they have a compensity to want to make you feel th...
  Whole and Healed While communing with the Holy Spirit, I felt the urge to read the story of Joseph. He has always been one of my favorite characters. My spirit is complete as I examined all of Joseph's circumstances. Through many trials and tribulations, the LORD was with him. When Joseph was younger his father kept him near to himself. (His brothers must have felt unloved and neglected at times.) Albeit, as they worked in the fields, Joseph would be sent out to "spy" on his brothers. Directly obeying his father, Israel. As his brothers tended to the tasks that they were sent to execute. (From what is written they lacked character in their youth and as young men. So, they were not trustworthy of their father.) Seemingly, Joseph, being a "goody two-shoes", made sure that Israel was aware of their wrongdoings. The LORD started to reveal Himself to Joseph in dreams. Being immature, he felt it necessary to brag of these dreams to his brothers. Knowing that their f...
