The path before me constantly twists and turns.
This could cause me some alarm!
But your presence, Jesus, stills my heart.
And I move forward with calm resolve.

The One Constant
Like a Golden Thread in the mess of life…
Illness, fear, sadness, accident, death, crisis, disappointments…
God remains the One Constant of…
Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.
That’s why I love Him with all my heart, all my mind, all my soul and all my strength.
If you want the One Constant in your life today…
Just ask The Holy Spirit to be your friend.
He’s waiting for you!
Thirsty?
Revelation is like flowing water.
Capture it whilst you can.
Then in dryer seasons it’s there to satisfy thirst.
With a Little Fathering…
‘My child, that is good. But this is better.’ Says Dad
We make our plans, but God establishes our steps because
He knows us so well and wants the best for us.
He is a good and perfect Father God.
So, don’t put up with the ‘good’ when you can
have the ‘best’ with a little bit of fathering.
A Prayer
Thank you that…
“You have searched me, Lord, and you know me.”
Help me today to relate to you as my Father in heaven
And so enter into all you have for me in your perfect love.
Amen!
Quote from Psalm 139:1
1000 Voices
Assailed!
There has never been such a time in history as now, when information, data and opinion were so readily available to us, right in our faces and clamouring for our attention.
Once limited to hearsay in small communities, these ‘voices’ enlarged through newspapers then to TV. Nowadays we are assailed through social media via computer, tablet, and mobile phone every second of the day, if we allow it.
Threatened!
This can pose a severe threat to followers of Christ whose Number One desire is to tune into God and their ‘home country’ in order to bring heaven to earth in their daily lives. Imposters can scramble God’s spiritual frequency and so interrupt His transmitting heart of love and purpose.
Agendas
We know that a Christian’s battle is not against flesh and blood but against principalities and powers that scheme against us. One item on hell’s agenda is to water down the purity of Christ within us, so that we merely reproduce what we see and hear around us rather than transform the earth with His revelatory Kingdom.
It is vital that we are spiritually aware of the current times and know how to deal with this voluminous phenomenon.
Strategy
A Prayer:
Lord, help me to love you with all my heart, soul, mind and strength…
to be informed but not influenced by the world around me…
and do good whenever your ‘voice’ leads me to.
Amen.

Top Priority
“Walk in my presence and be thou perfect.”
God’s presence is indispensable for bringing the culture of heaven
to our places of influence.
We cannot achieve the all-important kingdom perspective without the King!
Therefore its cultivation with Him should be our top priority at all times.
Prayer of the heart alone (not of the head or understanding)
brings us into God’s presence, and maintained without interruption
This is the stuff of personal, regional, national
and international revival, no less!
“The consciousness of God is the spirit of revival”

Quote: Arthur Wallis, ‘In the Day of Thy Power’, Page 65
Each Day
I wake and worship
Am lifted up and soar
Higher and higher
I hover, fluttering
Eagerly expectant
Then he comes
Holy Spirit carries me away
I’m riding his thermal wave
And so we begin another day

Decision Time
Let’s not harmonise our lives with the ticking clock
But with the heart beat of God in heaven.
Time or relationship?
It’s our choice to make.

Creating the Future
Let’s not devise our own future today.
But align with God and enter that which
He already has waiting for us in eternity.
Without a close relationship with Him we’ll miss it,
And merely recreate one
From the smallness of our own minds.

Deep calls to deep
A prophetic poem declaring alignment with Father
He is quiet, I am quiet.
He is still, I am still.
He is at rest, I am at rest.
I am as He is.
Why would I be any different?
He rises up, I rise up.
He soars on high, I with Him.
He consoles the poor, I too.
He defines justice, me with Him.
Then again He is quiet, me too.
Together in perfect unity.
He’s not stressed, I’m not stressed.
He’s not in a hurry, neither am I.
