Knowing the word of God

Welcome 2019! Happy New Year!!! I hope everyone enjoyed the holidays! I, for one, am exhausted! LOL On top of the holidays, the end of December also comes with birthdays for two of my teenage daughters!! While I enjoyed the holidays immensely, I am really happy to be getting back to life as normal! There are some exciting things happening for our family this year and I cannot wait to share each of them with you when the time is right!! My Word for 2019 One of the things I see a lot of people doing is choosing a word for the new year! I chose the word "rest". I have anxiety and I have a tendency to not only worry but to try to handle things and fix them! I need to learn to just rest in the knowledge that God has it all under control and I can just breathe and not feel I have to deal with everything and strive to fix everything and I don't need to worry about things that haven't even happened yet (imaginings!!) As I mentioned in December's Newsletter I am also excited because I have decided to focus on goals in 2019! As a blogger, it can be all too easy to focus on your ministry and lose focus of what you need to be doing for yourself! It is the same if you are a parent, a business owner...we can let our own needs slide. We need to look out for our own faith health as well and so I am setting goals to help me to focus on that so that I don't neglect my own growth. It is like the airplane speech...put the mask on yourself before assisting others. Arabah Joy's Grace Goals is one of the ways I am doing that! And it is never too late to jump in! Grace Goals I made the (very) small investment into Arabah Joy's Grace Goals program! It doesn't just help you focus on your spiritual goals, but life goals as well! Whether that be getting healthy, spending more time with family, anything! Through a series of step-by-step workshops and exercises, Grace Goals will show you how to work in conjunction with the Spirit of God to fulfill the desires He’s placed in your heart. It's a biblical process for total life transformation. I cannot recommend it enough and I am so excited to get to work on it!!

Knowing the word of God

And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,  Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him,  And say, Thus saith the Lord God ; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:  And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords:  Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet:  Gomer, and all his bands; the house of Togarmah of the north quarters, and all his bands: and many people with thee.  Be thou prepared, and prepare for thyself, thou, and all thy company that are assembled unto thee, and be thou a guard unto them.  After many days thou shalt be visited: in the latter years thou shalt come into the land that is brought back f...

Knowing the word of God

The word of the Lord that came unto Hosea, the son of Beeri, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel.  The beginning of the word of the Lord by Hosea. And the Lord said to Hosea, Go, take unto thee a wife of whoredoms and children of whoredoms: for the land hath committed great whoredom, departing from the Lord .  So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim; which conceived, and bare him a son.  And the Lord said unto him, Call his name Jezreel; for yet a little while, and I will avenge the blood of Jezreel upon the house of Jehu, and will cause to cease the kingdom of the house of Israel.  And it shall come to pass at that day, that I will break the bow of Israel in the valley of Jezreel.  And she conceived again, and bare a daughter. And God said unto him, Call her name Lo–ruhamah: for I will no more have mercy upon the house of Israel; but I will utterly take t...

Knowing the word of God

I am come into my garden, my sister, my spouse: I have gathered my myrrh with my spice; I have eaten my honeycomb with my honey; I have drunk my wine with my milk: eat, O friends; drink, yea, drink abundantly, O beloved.  I sleep, but my heart waketh: it is the voice of my beloved that knocketh, saying, Open to me, my sister, my love, my dove, my undefiled: for my head is filled with dew, and my locks with the drops of the night.  I have put off my coat; how shall I put it on? I have washed my feet; how shall I defile them?  My beloved put in his hand by the hole of the door, and my bowels were moved for him.  I rose up to open to my beloved; and my hands dropped with myrrh, and my fingers with sweet smelling myrrh, upon the handles of the lock.  I opened to my beloved; but my beloved had withdrawn himself, and was gone: my soul failed when he spake: I sought him, but I could not find him; I called him, but he gave me no answer.  The watchmen that went abou...
