Yahweh.

I sat down to get with the Lord and the Word I heard in my spirit was “Rely“ ! Now I know what it means but I looked up the definition in the dictionary anyway.

Rely:

verb (used without object), re·lied,re·ly·ing.

to depend confidently; put trust in

After looking it up, I saw it is in other words confidently trusting as it’s core. So my next question was “Lord, forgive Me if i am not Relying on you!” I realized I have to intentionally confide in God and intentionally trust that He’s got my back!

In my time with The Lord, I realized I need to confidently trust Him. I need to be focused with a certainty and assurance. To be honest, at this present time I am in a hard journey with a physical ailment and I have to repeatedly tell my body your becoming Whole in Jesus name! Come to alignment body! Ofcourse it’s taking a little but slowly I am progressing , not as fast as I want but I believe in Jesus. VICTORY IS MINE! That means that I believe He uses all things for my good because I love Him and I am called to His purposes! I do choose to trust him!

If you know me, you know I love music and all genres , and I especially love to worship my Jesus! And as I heard a song recently it reminded me of the valleys and seas I have conquered in the strength of the Lord! I have been through it! He said if I am weak, His strength is perfected in my weakness! Let me testify for a moment!

I have seen The Lords strength in my Life! He healed my family He saved my family

He healed me from emotional trauma

He healed me from rejection

He healed me from church hurt

He healed me from people pleasing

He healed my ankle

He provided for me homes over the 10-12 years

He provided financially for me

He has kept me safe from harm

He has healed me from a broken heart and I can go on and on! God is good!

And he is Healing my body now! I have faith to believe in Yahweh! Do you know the word referring to God was “the name” back in the old testiment. It was too sacrared to say it so they referred to it as “the name”. The Jews referred to him as LORD, or Elohim, which can used for other things or gods. In Exodus 3 Moses had an encounter with Him and that is recorded as the name to tell the people “ I am that I am”. In English we don’t have a translation for the word Yahweh as it is the exclusive word for God, But he used that term “I am that I am” interchangeably. I believe God was given us a reference point! He understands our humanity and what we would understand.

Our God has a wonderful reputation and even when it can looks so dark I trust him in the valley! It doesn’t mean we won’t go through hard time, in fact it means even in the hard times we come out shining from it. We will not stay defeated, period!

I have made many mistakes in my life but loving Yahweh is not one of them. He has always been there for me, always. When everyone has left, I find comfort in always knowing he never forsakes me! I am never alone. What a promise!

Let’s encourage one another ! It is necessary!

I will leave you with these verses to comfort you in these times we living in today!

2 Corinthians 12:10

That’s why I take pleasure in my weaknesses, and in the insults, hardships, persecutions, and troubles that I suffer for Christ. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

James 1:2-4

Dear brothers and sisters,when troubles of any kind come your way, consider it an opportunity for great joy. For you know that when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow. So let it grow, for when your endurance is fully developed, you will be perfect and complete, needing nothing.

1 Chronicles 29:11

Yours, O Lord, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the victory and the majesty, for all that is in the heavens and in the earth is yours. Yours is the kingdom, O Lord, and you are exalted as head above all.

2 Timothy 1:7 For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.

1 Corinthians 6:14 And God raised the Lord and will also raise us up by his power.

Ephesians 3:20 Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us.

SO, tell me...

What has Yahweh done for you lately? Let me rejoice with you!!!!!

HURT & HEALED

Hurt.

Pain.

Depression.

Anxiety.

Fear.

Rejection.

Abandonment.

I was sitting down and I had a vision of the word HURT. I know that writing about HURT isn't a popular thing but it's what I saw and I believe Jesus is after something in us. It may make people feel uncomfortable because it’s exposing something but it is necessary to deal with. HURT is real and it is a very vulnerable place to share the truth of where you are at or where you have been.

I know there are people who talk about pain and they often dwell on the situations they have been through. Now, there is the thing where I draw the line at. I am ok to talk about "pain" but my goal is to get you HEALED and that is only through JESUS that you can be healed from the inside out. I will not be one to continually dwell on issue because something we cannot change but one thing we can do , is change ourselves. We can change our perspective and our position ( that's a word all in itself ).

I am so grateful for Jesus to hear where I am and He does not run from me, but towards me. Our God isn’t afraid of how angry or hurt we are. He doesn’t judge the pain. Everyone hurts, he hurt at one point. We see the agony he faced with betrayal , rejection and especially on his way to Calvary for you and me. isn’t it beautiful that the hurt he faced didn’t stop him. Jesus surrendered himself physically and emotionally. He battled with His flesh in The Garden of Gethsemane. Read Below.

Jesus Prays in Gethsemane

Matthew 26:36 Then Jesus went with them to a place called Gethsemane, and he said to his disciples, “Sit here, while I go over there and pray.” 37 And taking with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, he began to be sorrowful and troubled. 38 Then he said to them, “My soul is very sorrowful, even to death; remain here, and watch[a]with me.” 39 And going a little farther he fell on his face and prayed, saying, “My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as you will.”

What if Jesus didn't surrender?

What if he didn't go to pray that prayer?

Remember Jesus was just as human as he was God. He didn't have to do anything but he desired to please his Father so he surrendered his will. (SUCH LOVE <3)

John 8:28 So Jesus said,“When you have lifted up the Son of Man on the cross, then you will understand that I do nothing on my own but say only what the Father taught me.29 And the one who sent me is with me—he has not deserted me. For I always do what pleases him.”30 Then many who heard him say these things believed in him.

The list above are just a few things we can experience as humans on earth. Very real and very raw feelings. Life events take place and often times we can resort back to these same emotions because pain is real. Studies show the going through emotional pain and physical pain are not similar. Emotional pain is actually considered worse as memories can actually trigger emotional pain.

"Physical pain usually leaves few echoes (unless the circumstance of the injury was emotionally traumatic) while emotional pain leaves numerous reminders, associations, and triggers that reactivate our pain when we encounter them." - Psychology Today

Pain is so deep, especially when you have been traumatized by life experiences.Sometimes if we don’t heal we will see things through that vantage point alone. I myself have been guilty of letting my past dictate my future.It affected my closest relationships and it really did a number on me. I had to take some time to heal and it was horrible and beautiful all at the same time. I thank God for that season in my life. I don't regret it one bit.

I submitted and surrender myself to a team of people who loved and cared for me. A team of people who loved me and counseled me through years of pain. I felt safe around them.

Proverbs 11:4 Without wise leadership, a nation falls; there is safety in having many advisers.

So why am I writing all of this? It is because pain is real and it must be dealt with.The world is in a lot of pain right now and the cure is Jesus. Jesus came to heal the broken hearted and let me tell you he understands. He wants to heal you from the inside out. He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. Psalm 147:3 Jesus came to heal, to bind up and to love us through it all. What an amazing God. No other God like him.

Here are a few tips:

Cry it out!

Write it out!

Worship your way through!

Jesus wants you to be real and raw before him, it is there where he can fix you. However, don't neglect what's there. Do not let it hinder you in relationships any long. Process the pain. If you leave it unmanaged and untouched it will affect you in every way. Yes, it is hard but nothing changes overnight. Get around people to help you heal properly. My relationship with the The Lord changed forever because of it.

Jesus is the ultimate comfort.

He will give you peace.

Jesus is the healer I always needed.

He is the one I always count on when the systems of the world fail, when relationships fail, and when my problems seem to be crashing down on me.I look to Father God. Trials they do help build me in my faith. When trials come , it is an opportunity to live out what I truly believe. And I do believe The Maker of Heaven and Earth will not only bring me through but I do believe he prepares me in advance.

All these are reasons we should give our emotional health just as much (if not more) attention and care as we do our physical health. Alas, we rarely do. While we take action at the first sight of a sniffle or muscle sprain we do little to ‘treat’ common emotional injuries such as rejection, failure,guilt, brooding, or loneliness when we sustain them. While we apply antibacterial ointment to a cut or scrape right away, we do little to boost or protect our self-esteem when it is low. - Psychology Today,

GET EMOTIONALLY HEALTHY AND STAY HEALTHY! YOU CAN DO THIS!

I love this song because it gives hope and direction in trails that we face. let us put our Faith in Action and Move!

Never Lost by Rita Springer

Wind, listen to the sound of power on my lips

Jesus has broken the curse, he has never lost a battle

Who are you great mountain, that you should not bow low

Jesus defeated the darkness, he has never lost a battle

Do you FEEL it ? Are you in PAIN ? Don't you dare stay there! I know you can be BRAVE and move forward! All you have to do is surrender to Jesus. Let the Holy Spirit show you the people to connect with. You have it in you to succeed. Don't let anything hold you back from your healing journey.

Lord I pray for every brother or sister who reads this blog today, that not only would you remind them of what they have already conquered, but that you show them they can still conquer. I pray that if anyone is struggling with pain of any kind that you would surround them with your great love! Holy Spirit that you would show them who they should reach out to so they can get past the emotional pain they are struggling with. Jesus, you said you came to heal the broken heart so I ask that you would do that just for them. I pray you place people in there corner who would guide them through their process. Lord, you complete what you start so I know you will carry them through, You are worthy to be praised. I love you Lord. In Jesus Name, Amen.

Yes I have been Hurt,but I am HEALED In Jesus Name!

FEAR GO

Fear GO ! Holy Spirit Come! I heard an amazing chant from a worship team at Mercy Culture Church that blessed my life! It illuminated my reality and immediately I agreed with the message that was coming from the saints. I found fear has come to grip me. It has come to keep me bound and paralyzed from my future. However, I must invite the Holy Spirit in to guide me and take over and to give me the perspective I need to continue this walk with Jesus. Fear does not have to rule my thoughts anymore.

Fear GO Holy Spirit COME! Have your way in my life.

2 Timothy 1: 6 For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands.7 For God has not given us a spirit of timidity,but of power, love,and self-control.8So do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, or of me, His prisoner.

I can truly say Fear has been an enemy all of my life and it has been around every corner. How many of you can relate? If I just had one opportunity to be able to throw down (meaning to get into a fight) one time it would be a wrap! Unfortunately, I can't deal with fear in that manner. Fear has to be dealt with in a less tangible way but nevertheless the fight is very real.

As I write this today, I am telling you fear is real in my life and I don't deny that. I can struggle with fear of failing, fear of the future, fear of rejection, fear of wrong decisions etc. We can talk about nice things like Joy and Love but I think its important to explain that fear is real and it can be overcome! Yes, it is possible.

So how do I overcome fear? Well, it's a challenge but I will place below things I do to help me face it head on.

Faith

Have faith that something will change. Keep a positive Faith Filled attitude that Jesus will see you through the battle you're facing. Believe again! Fear does not have the power to remove the Faith you can put into God and His Word. Believe His promises for you are "Yes and Amen". Believe he has a "Future and a Hope for you". Believe that his grace is sufficient in the trails and challenges in your life. Jesus tell us we will have trouble in this world but to take heart for He has overcome the world. So let Him show you how to overcome! Do what Jesus did! Rely on the Father to guide you through your moments of fear! It has helped me at my lowest and I am sure it will help you.

Romans 1:17 For the gospel reveals the righteousness of God that comes by faith from start to finish,just as it is written:“The righteous will live by faith.”

Acts 3:16 By faith in the name of Jesus,this man whom you see and know has been made strong.It is Jesus’ name and the faith that comes through Him that has given him this complete healing in your presence.

Hebrews 13:7

Remember your leaders, those who spoke to you the word of God. Consider the outcome of their way of life, and imitate their faith.

Confess

Yes, Confess it! Why because it is important to acknowledge where you are at to those around you. Be honest and ask for help. Ask for accoutability. Let God help you and let your brothers and sisters help you while your in the pit. It is awesome to talk about the good stuff but lets be real with the hard stuff too. If you truly want to be free, break the silence of shame. Expose the darkness! The enemy would love to keep you bound in Fear for the rest of your life. Expose him and watch how quickly your perspective will turn around. Declare the Word of the Lord over your situation and rely on Holy Spirit to direct you in all things. He does promise to lead us into all truth. The enemy has distorted the truth too long. Don't let him win in your life.

Proverbs 27:17

Iron sharpens iron, and one man sharpens another.

1 Peter 5:5-7

Likewise, you who are younger, be subject to the elders. Clothe yourselves, all of you, with humility toward one another, for “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.” Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you.

Take Action

MOVE,YES make a move! Fear has kept you and I stuck way too long. I can truly say it has done a good work on me in many seasons of my life. It has held me back from opportunities and I regret how much time I have lost because of it. Make a decision to do something about it! What have you been wanting to and have been afraid? What is a dream or desire you have a fear stopped you? Think about it. I challenge you to do one thing and do it in the name of conquering fear! Let's use the hashtag #imnotafraidanymore ! Show me what you do in the face of fear! I would love to hear your story!

James 2:21 Was not our father Abraham justified by what he did when he offered his son Isaac on the altar? 22 You see that this faith was working with his actions,and his faith was perfected by what he did.

2 Peter 1:5-8 For this very reason, make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue, and virtue with knowledge, and knowledge with self-control, and self-control with steadfastness, and steadfastness with godliness, and godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love. For if these qualities are yours and are increasing, they keep you from being ineffective or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Let this chant be our anthem! I love you all and I want Gods absolutely best for you. Come on and say it with me" Fear don't live here anymore!"

Fear GO Holy Spirit COME!

Have your way Jesus!
