GOOD TO BE ME AGAIN

Hi Lovelies,
I just wanted to share an inspiration with you so that next time you find yourself overwhelmed, you will know just what to do.
This past month or two, we have been inundated with distractions. I personally have taken on too much and it has caused me to lose focus. So yesterday I cried out and asked The Lord to clean up my slate so that I could get back on track, and within a few short hours everything changed: Doors closed with completeness, new doors that we were meant to walk through opened, and I was made whole once again.

Oh praise The Lord that His mercies never fail us!!

"Oh, give thanks to the LORD, for He is good!For His mercy endures forever." 1 Chronicles 16:34

If you ever feel overwhelmed, take a deep breath and ask The Lord to get out His big broom..He is good at cleaning up those messes. : )

It's good to be me again...I am now ready to dance that silly dance....
Have a great week.
Blessings, Destiny.

POWER TO THE PEOPLE

Acts 1:4-11, “And being assembled together with them, He commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the Promise of the Father, “which” he said, “you have heard from me: for John truly baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now.” 6 Therefore, when they had come together, they asked Him, saying, “Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?” 7 And He said to them, “It is not for you to know times or seasons which the Father has put in His own authority. 8 But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” 9 Now when He had spoken these things, while they watched, He was taken up, and a cloud received Him out of their sight. 10 And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as He went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel, 11 who also said, “Men of Galilee, why do you stand gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will so come in like manner as you saw Him go into heaven.”

EMPOWERED BY THE SPIRIT
The distinctive purpose of the outpouring of The Holy Spirit of Acts, was and still is to bring power to the church for ministry. Many Christians today walk in complete defeat, and for many reasons we see the church operating as a powerless entity always ready to apologize to the liberal agenda for their faith. Beloved, the church was not established so that we could be a friend to the world..

James 4:4 "Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God."

Many warriors of old fought and died knowing that there was yet to be a generation who would see the power of the Holy One unleashed in the fullness of time. You are of the privileged few who have been gifted a spot in this time piece of God’s magnificent Clock. If the church would stop trying to build upon something that has already been established and get back to the simplicity of the great calling, we would see mountains move and power revealed that none could deny.

UPON THIS ROCK

Matthew 16:13-18: 13, “When Jesus came into the region of Caesarea Philippi, He asked His disciples, saying, “Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?” 14 So they said, “Some say John the Baptist, some Elijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets.” 15 He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” 16 Simon Peter answered and said, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” 17 Jesus answered and said to him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven. 18 And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it.”

So you say, “I have confessed that Jesus is Lord.” But now I ask you, IS Jesus Lord of your life? If you have found the work apportioned to you to be laborious, you are the lord of your own life! Find the joy of your calling, and then you will see the power of it. If you are unsure, if you can no longer see clearly, remember that the Lord’s Word is a lamp to your feet; use it to light the way.

Psalm 119:105, “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.”

LIFT UP THY COUNTENANCE
Do not grumble nor moan, for what profit is there in this? Lift up your countenance with good things; thoughts of love and purpose, for you are a candle of The Lord’s Light and wherever you place your feet, someone should find Jesus there.

2 Corinthians 5:20, “20 Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God.”

HERE’S THE NUGGET: There does come a time for movement. Do not consider the ways of the world as your victor, for it crumbles about you.
Until next time,
Meditate on 1 John 2:17

KILL THE MESSENGER & THE MESSAGE WILL STILL LIVE ON

This ridiculous attack on Brit Hume is not only ignorant but purely irrelevant. His life giving advice to Tiger Woods has been chastised and violently attacked by liberal media, who cannot stand to hear the words of life in any form!

The only path that leads to the redemption of sins is by way of Jesus. Any "religion" that does not recognize Jesus as LORD is just another interpretation of nothingness: A feel good message that ultimately leads to eternal death!

"WE REPORT, YOU DECIDE" SHOULD be every Christian's motto, and each man, upon hearing the good news of a Savior, must make that decision all by themselves. Jesus Christ, the one and only Son of God has made a way for all to come, BUT each must come on their own accord.

You don't like the message..TOO BAD! Remove the messenger, and the message will still live on...JESUS CHRIST IS THE ONLY WAY TO THE FATHER.

How about you log on the Foxnews.com and leave a kudos for Brit?

Until next time,
Don't just sit there with your mouth quiet!

2010 Census to Begin

Hi Lovelies,
Just got this email and thought you should read it too:

WARNING: 2010 Census Cautions from the Better Business Bureau
Be Cautious About Giving Info to Census Workers
by Susan Johnson, BBB

With the U.S. Census process beginning, the Better Business Bureau (BBB) advises people to be cooperative, but cautious, so as not to become a victim of fraud or identity theft. The first phase of the 2010 U.S. Census is under way as workers have begun verifying the addresses of households across the country. Eventually, more than 140,000 U.S. Census workers will count every person in the United States and will gather information about every person living at each address including name, age, gender, race, and other relevant data.

The big question is - how do you tell the difference between a U.S.. Census worker and a
con artist? BBB offers the following advice:

• If a U.S. Census worker knocks on your door, they will have a badge, a handheld device, a Census Bureau canvas bag, and a confidentiality notice. Ask to see their identification and their badge before answering their questions. However, you should never invite anyone you don't know into your home.
• Census workers are currently only knocking on doors to verify address information. Do not give your Social Security number, credit card or banking information to anyone, even if they claim they need it for the U.S. . Census.
  

REMEMBER, NO MATTER WHAT THEY ASK, YOU REALLY ONLY NEED TO TELL THEM HOW MANY PEOPLE LIVE AT YOUR ADDRESS...

While the Census Bureau might ask for basic financial information, such as a salary range, YOU DON'T HAVE TO ANSWER ANYTHING AT ALL ABOUT YOUR FINANCIAL SITUATION. The Census Bureau will not ask for Social Security, bank account, or credit card numbers, nor will employees solicit donations. Any one asking for that information is NOT with the Census Bureau.

AND REMEMBER, THE CENSUS BUREAU HAS DECIDED NOT TO WORK WITH ACORN ON GATHERING THIS INFORMATION. .. No Acorn worker should approach you saying he/she is with the Census Bureau.

Eventually, Census workers may contact you by telephone, mail, or in person at home. However, the Census Bureau will not contact you by Email, so be on the lookout for Email scams impersonating the Census.

Never click on a link or open any attachments in an Email that are supposedly from the U.S. Census Bureau..

Blessings Lovelies,
Destiny
