Journal entry - Tuesday 6th June 2017 I've found that my most powerful days are those that begin with my early morning routine. 3-4:30 am - I wake up at 3 am and sit in silence for a while ( Usually 1 to 1 1/2 hrs ). 4:30-5 am I may choose to pray in tongues as well. ( This goes on for 30 mins to 1 hr ) 5-6 am - And I follow this by listening to audiobible or reading my physical bible. 6-7:30 am - Rest. Because I am still in the midst of training myself to accept this routine for life , I do find myself falling asleep at 6 am and then waking up once more around 7:30 am . Interestingly, it is during this 6 am nap that I receive most of my most powerful dreams.  *This is the general outline, though it may vary on some days. Durin g this seas on o f my life , I am not always able to keep this routine as we have a ministry travel schedul e that is quite rigorous. It involves a lot of activity & meeting new people.  I enjoy the travel, but w hen I retu...

Journal entry Monday June 5th 2017 Gratitude turns things around! It is the fuel for great change. Gratitude drives the train of your life upward and onward through the heights of majestic mountains. Mountains that are so high, they must be continually fuelled by the buoyant joy of thanksgiving. Spoken words of gratitude lift its wheels even higher! Reverance for God brings clouds of grace. All the while this Mighty Train travels along it's breathtaking journey. Rising higher from Glory to Glory. You see Gratitude and Thanksgiving are so potent ... they turn things around! As we fill our minds with the Word of God, we gain the Mind of Christ. That is always grateful, always in reverant awe of God. For this reason we deliberately put our focus on the various blessings that we are reminded to be grateful for! Like a muscle that must be trained... Our focus must be trained to perpetually give thanks. For what a Mighty Force Gratitude and Thanksgiving are! ...

Journal Entry 1 June 2017 Consistency is the Key Nothing is impossible for God, so yes things can happen in an instant! Overnight …. Suddenly everything changes! In QUICK Rapid Succession history is impacted! This life changing event is both Stunning and Amazing! Glory to God :) But in studying the many “suddenlies” in the Bibles, we see that they were often proceeded by a lifetime of righteousness, of asking or even of long-suffering.  So though breakthrough appears to be Sudden, if you were to go deeper, investigating what came prior, you would recognize a great waiting period. This leads me to my thought today.  Great "Suddenlies" don't spring from shallow roots. They have taken deep root, growing and brooding over time before launched into something HUGE.  You see, Consistency is the key to success.  Not only is this a Kingdom principle it is also recognized by secular motivational teac...

Journal entry 31 May 2017 We have a Great God! He is willing to wipe the slate clean and forgive us time and again. How Great is His patience. I relish what will occur today! Today I have a new found zeal. You see yesterday was a struggle for me and I faltered in my focus. I was not at my most efficient and was distracted .... but praise God! He got me back on track at the end of the day with the simple reminder that everyday is a new slate. New beginnings are available daily if we will seize them! The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases;      his mercies never come to an end;   they are new every morning;      great is your faithfulness. ~ Lamentations 3:22/23  This morning, I was inspired as I prayed. I asked the Lord to afford me with great efficiency, that I may bear much fruit as I move forward this day. There is much to be accomplished and it's a Joy to do it. There is also a sense of satisfaction in c...

Journal entry - 30 May 2017  Do Less so that He can do more. This is a concept that the Lord has been reminding me of. Th is month w as meant to be a time devoted to going deeper in the Lord. It follows a very busy season where we travelled across the US a 40 day ministry trip ..   But lately I've found that we have be come very busy once again.  We had to make quick trips to Tennessee and Philadelphi a . On top of that we had friends organizing conferences and we attended both to support them. Ordinarily, we are not conference people, we’d rather be evangelizing on the street, but we made exceptions for our fr iends . All this , on top of a list of goals that I am working o n. I’m a n ambitious person with BIG Goals …. Needless to say, I found myself beginning to fee l overwhelmed! And that is when the Holy Spirit began to comfort me .   He said “ Slow Down.” I heaved a sigh of ...

Journal entry - 29 May 2017  Early this morning as I awoke, I saw a picture in my head. It was though I was receiving a lesson from the Lord. I saw a face. I believe it was my face! Then I saw a slim rectangle on my forehead. It looked like a narrow viewing screen that was placed on me. I was shown to hold the Vision that He gives me and to view it here. Apart from this narrow ‘screen’, the rest of my face seemed to be a clear untouched canvas. I was being taught to keep the Vision clear while viewing it from this vantage point. Let everything else fall away and keep this Vision CLEAR , SIMPLE, PRECISE. Precision and clarity were emphasized. I was not to allow extraneous details to enter.  The Lord teaches each one of us in unique ways. And my description of what He showed me is probably lacking and thus may not be entirely clear to the reader. He has never given me a lesson quite like this before. But it impacted me deepl...

Journal entry - 28 May 2017 Love thy Neighbour Serving the Lord is a joy! And a storehouse of good works is wonderful … But what does our Lord reminds us first and foremost to do ?  OBEY the greatest commandment of all to love the Lord with all our heart, soul, mind and strength. Followed by the second command … to love our neighbor as we do ourselves. It is easy to love those who are loveable but can we love those who are unloveable. The neighbour who is a handful, the friend who betrayed and stabbed one in the back, the family member who hurt us and continues to hurt us …  These are the very ones we are called to love. A disciple of Jesus does not hate man, but Forgives multiple times. And yet he is on the offence, WARRING in the spirit against the demonic strongholds and principalities at play. This however, does not mean now staying in close proximity & ties with each person (who is difficult to love).  Many times distance ...
