Be Aware and Trust in God

When my husband deployed to Iraq, he went with the 22MEU, which is considered the green

side of the Navy. I was used to my husband deploying on a big strong ship. This time he would

be boots on the ground with the Marines. Like most military wives, I think we internalize our

emotions in an attempt to normalize the situation. Since the topic of death was taboo, I began

sleepwalking. I would wake up, and I was standing in different parts of my room. I even took my

socks off at night, thinking the cold winter floor would wake me up before I found myself at the

bottom of the stairs. Not knowing what to do, I went and talked to my civilian family doctor. He

was such a good Christian man. He suggested that we go in prayer concerning the issue. If, in a

few weeks, it did not resolve itself, then come back, and we would look at medical reasons.

So, I started talking to God about my issue. Immediately I felt God was leading me to fast from

the news. Every time I wanted to turn on the news and see what was happening in Iraq, I was to

sit down and read God’s word. Let’s just say I flew through the New Testament, and my

sleepwalking ended immediately.

“In peace, I will both lie down and sleep, for You alone, O Lord, make me to dwell in safety

Psalm 4:8.”

As good citizens, I think it is essential to know current events. What we don’t need is people’s

opinions or interpretation of events. If you are like me and your sleep or your mood is being

disturbed by the chaos swirling around the world, you must spend quiet time with God. Just like

our physical body, our spiritual health is impacted by what we feed ourselves. Just this week, I

started to watch a video, and the Holy Spirit quickly quickened me on what I was doing. Now I

am asking God His opinion on all those human proclamations on “good Christian behavior.” The

funny thing is, just like the Psalms says, I sleep in peace, and I am thoroughly enjoying the

conversations with God. Invite God to talk to you about the current events. You will like His

perspective.

There is Life and Death in the Tongue

There is life and death in the tongue. In the beginning, God created man to be in authority. Since the fall of man, many now see any so-called authority in our words, as crazy superstition or demonic. By perverting the concept, Satan has us speaking negative words in doubt and unbelief. We are literally cursing our own destinies because we do not understand that from the beginning, words were used to create. Now, evil uses words to destroy with constant negative, complaining, and destructive talk. It is everywhere, and the church is participating. Jesus has taken all authority from Satan and returned it to His children. Being ignorant concerning precisely what the blood of Christ at the cross has restored to us, we are still declaring ourselves destined for illness and great sorry on this earth. Many have confused trials and tribulations as one’s lot in life, so we then do not speak in authority against it because we believe Sovereign God wants us sick and hur...

I Beg You

Please note, I wrote this post for my fellow followers-in-Christ. My middle sister has retired in a community that is set up specifically for older citizens. The one-story-brand-new home has everything you would need to provide safety and convenience. They have made many friends with the same interest and most of all; they feel safe. Last night I had a dream my sister and her husband decided to sell this home. They bought a dilapidated home. As I walked up to the house, the yard was grown up past our head. You could barely see it had a fence around the yard. When I went in, the walls were filthy and worn. Everything in the home was so old it was falling apart. Here is the funny part. They were so happy and proud of this old home and kept referring to the brand-new home as disgusting. In my mind, I was pleading, “Please tell me that you did not sell your home; you will not be happy with this old house.” Suddenly I woke up, very upset. Immediately God spoke to me to tell me what the drea...
