Precious Remnant, as I have diligently sought The LORD since July, it has been a life changing time and in depth look into my own heart.

He said to me recently: “Over the next 21 days, be sure to record your moments!”

That would bring me up to October 2, 2021 and yesterday, I realized that is the same time frame that Donald Trump asked people to pray for 21 days. Coincidence? I don’t think so.

So today, I bare my heart to you in many areas.

During this time The LORD gave me a couple of songs that have taken me down my personal journey with great introspection.

The older I get, the more I desire to stand before Him and hope He finds me Faithful. I have learned to love my Father’s Character and one thing I treasure is His Intentionality.

He has walked with me and guided my footsteps. This last month to see the times I left what I thought was my footprints in the sand — but it was His footprints carrying me, holding me, and settling me peacefully where I needed to be, to follow the path of life He had planned for me.

This must be my time to learn to “grow old gracefully.” Somehow, I never thought of myself as old, but this birthday settled it for me. 😊

Quite seriously, it is the end-time reality when, I believe, The LORD is urging us to stop and take inventory of how and where we have been prepared for this battle and this change we are experiencing … a change like no other before. Beloved, we are in His grip always.

It has been my most beautiful time inside of my heart and His as He, took me down memory lane for a couple of days, showing me the idols in my heart that I never knew were there, healing my memories of being thrown away since early childhood and marriage (that I thought were healed) starting with my earthly father.

The reality of my GOOD, GOOD FATHER wrenched my heart with deep repentance for lamenting about my feelings of failure to Him during this last week.

His Intentional, specific, strategic direction for me when I did not even know, settled into my heart with such gratitude I can never put it into words.

He has been hard at work to deter my strong will to have my own way, and move me away from the wrong directions, shift my focus to see through His eyes, and reposition me from wrong alliances and connect me with divine connections with such a gentle nudge at times and a very startling awakening at other times.

The amazing result has enhanced the true Fear of The LORD inside of me in a new depth along with a deep humility in my heart.

It seems to me when it is too late, He proves to me to Trust His Timing. He has staged every entrance so far and drawn the curtain when that part of my story had run it’s course. ⁣

I have learned much from Paul who said,

“But this one thing I do… forgetting the things which are behind and reaching FORWARD to those things which are ahead.” Philippians 3:13.

As I pondered forgetting, I said, “LORD, how do I really FORGET? Especially when the enemy bombards my mind with every wrong thing I have done?”

He then spoke, “Remember… when you remember, you are choosing your thoughts. If you are not choosing your thoughts, the enemy is filling your mind.

Your mind is the battlefield as you fully know. Now I remind you, take your thoughts captive lest you are in constant confusion and frustration.

Remembering, my daughter, gives you a grateful heart, a heart of thanksgiving and thanksgiving will move mountains and it opens the windows of heaven.

How I love to hear a faith filled prayer from a grateful heart,” says The LORD.

“Long ago I told you what was going to happen. Then suddenly I took action, and all my predictions came true.” Isaiah 48:3 NLT.

Walking the runway of life is not easy. There are always bumps and detours in the road.

As I have been taking an inventory of my life, I have gotten stuck a few times realizing how many detours, delays, distractions diversions and discouragements that have taken place in my life, many of which were due to my procrastination or misunderstanding.

I hear Him interrupting me with the instruction of the day for all of us, “Seize the day, you will not pass this way again, stay on course, fix your focus, guard your heart and take hold of what is in front of you.

I have given you your Daily Bread, I have forgiven your Trespasses, I have sent you out into the world to be a Light, now carry the light to the dark places and shine, shine, shine for the Light of My Love shall bring the Light of My Glory in this hour as never before.

No matter what THEY do, you do only what I do and what I say do. Love one another as I have loved you,” says The Father.

I can assure you that His Blessed Assurance and His Divine Interventions are always making sure my feet get on the right track.

There is one thing I know… all the while the Only Wise Father was creating Joy in my heart as I learned to be content (Psalm 46:10) and I have learned what He meant when He said “No matter what…” or aka “Whatever state, to be content.”

I have often thought of that as which state? (Location) 😊

Much of Paul’s teaching we must remember was done when he was in Prison but he was Protected. He had been Persecuted but he was Pressing on.

He was learning and remembering….”But this one thing I do.”…Forgetting those things which are behind and Reaching Forward to those things which are ahead,” (Philippians 3:13).

When I read some of the Prophetic Warnings in the last few days, particularly about storing food, etc., we have been hearing this for years and we have been trying to be wise — but not fearful.

I remember when The LORD sent me to Singapore (someone paid for the ticket) and I had used what little money I had in the Philippines, so I had nothing.

The LORD (true to His Promise) sent a man in a Mercedes to feed me. It was a setup. God knew what He was doing when He sent me there.

I was learning that He always provides. He makes a Way. That is not just one testimony, my friends.

I have more than I can count but that was my real DADDY loves me and He has got me experience that I have never forgotten, because He and the lady I traveled with, were the only ones who were aware of my financial situation. He raised her up to go with me, because she paid for the ticket.

So today I know many whose hearts are hurting and many are looking at the desperate situation in the world and “feeling like” they can never be a RESET, that things will not change and they will never have a chance to reach their destiny.

I hear The LORD reminding me of a Word He gave me a while back and I know it is a NOW Word.

He said. “Hold My Hand, I AM reaching out.

Angelic armies are encamping round about you, because you Fear Me. They are bringing deliverance from the bombardment of the enemy.

Look up and all around, as answers to your prayers begin to abound. The prodigals are coming and leading the band of those who are marching together at My Command,” says The Father.

“Your first instruction was to Trust and Obey, and you have worked it all out day after day.

Don’t measure your success by the accolades of man but count it all joy that you followed My Plan.

Don’t let the voice of your feelings deceive you.

Things that have been delayed are going to be delivered. Promises that were postponed are going to come to pass. Prophetic words will be fulfilled.

For know this,” says The Promise Keeper, “I AM breathing a fresh breath of life into old Prophetic Words and My Timing is perfect.

So shake the dust off those Words that you have thrown away and look full in My Face, for this is a new day,” says the Father.

He has given you power over the enemies that would hinder your progress, (2 Corinthians 10:3-6).

The LORD said, Tell My Remnant Warriors, NOW is the time to gain ACCESS and steer the course of history with your prayers and acts of faith.

The Access Portal of Heaven is open and it is time to pursue, overtake and recover all the enemy has stolen.”

He took me back to David once again to prove His point: 1 Samuel 30:3-8. David had many encounters and visitations with The LORD but this gained access to his destiny and kingship in he pursued and recovered all in this passage.

“When David and his men reached Ziklag, they found it destroyed by fire and their wives and sons and daughters taken captive. So David and his men wept aloud until they had no strength left to weep. David’s two wives had been captured — Ahinoam of Jezreel and Abigail, the widow of Nabal of Carmel. David was greatly distressed because the men were talking of stoning him; each one was bitter in spirit because of his sons and daughters. But David found strength in The LORD his God. Then David said to Abiathar the priest, the son of Ahimelek, “Bring me the ephod.” Abiathar brought it to him, and David inquired of The LORD, “Shall I pursue this raiding party? Will I overtake them?”
“Pursue them,” he answered. “You will certainly overtake them and succeed in the rescue.” 1 Samuel 30:3-8 emphasis added.

I leave you today with this song that The LORD is playing in my heart. May this be the cry of your heart as well that He finds us Faithful.

As you meditate on the Words, one line at a time, I believe The LORD will speak to you in a very personal and prophetic way regarding your walk with Him.

And if you don’t know Him, may He open your heart to receive Eternal Life and Love. If you find your heart has hardened or your love has grown cold, may The LORD heal, deliver and set your heart on fire with His love today.

This song is based on Hebrews 12:1-2, which says,

“Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also lay aside every encumbrance and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.”
