I was at our House of Prayer yesterday night and it became very crystal clear to me yet again how much I greatly desire the Presence of Jesus! The depths of my soul could not explain the feeling that always takes over in the worship that comes from being in the House of Prayer.
I truly believe that Houses of Prayer will be one of the incense-releasers of His Presence in this season and time...
What is it about worship that ushers in the tangible Presence and eventual Glory of God? Here's a hint: the word worship first appears in the Bible when Abraham tells his servants to wait behind while he and Isaac go on to 'worship' God. That tells me that worship involves sacrifice if you know the full story of Genesis 22. And sacrifice is all about trusting that He will definitely come through on what He promised, it's about not budging and believing no matter what's happening, it's about digging your heels deep and standing firm and worshiping through the hail and the storm and the whirlwind, until you hear the still small voice come through like Elijah did and then the victory is so sweet. But it's also about enjoying the worship and hearing His voice, seeing His face...what joy!
So back to yesterday, worshiping Him is what I love to do and considering we shall be doing a lot of worship in eternity, shouldn't you be getting a head start on it here on earth? I realize with every passing moment, that I need Him utterly and completely and worship is one of the best avenues to express this to Him, He loves receiving our worship and desires to respond to our praise!
There is no other way of describing this and if I may use the word 'junkie' in a positive way, I would say I was a 'Presence junkie'...I simply cannot do without Him...what about you? Go ahead, tip those incense bowls and release His joy!
God bless you as you seek Him, and find Him.
He truly delights in your worship!

An Anointing That Causes Abundance...
Hello there...Happy New Year!
I've been stuck on Psalm 23 for 5 days now and it doesn't seem to be letting up... I even dreamt vs. 5a in full color a few nights ago; complete with a table of goodies and others at the table giving me dark unfriendly looks! No kidding! And I sense that for 2015, we're stepping into vs. 5b: "You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over". What exactly does this mean?
The origin of the word "anoint" in the Hebrew means "abundance, to satisfy or fatten", wow! And the word "cup" could also mean "bag of money, container"...another wow! This isn't symbolism here as we often think when we read the Bible that the language has to be symbolic, this is actually pure simple truth.
So here's the verse put clearly: "You abundantly satisfy me such that my capacity to bless is overwhelmingly and lavishly overrun ...!" This is your portion for 2015 so receive it and declare it by faith. Let the truth and meaning of that verse become real to you like never before!
Best Blessings in 2015!
He utterly and completely delights in You...He truly does.

Keep Communication Lines Open...Always
I have an iPad and an android phone which I use to communicate with family who are in other countries but I don't always have them with me at all times, especially the iPad. For instance, my brother in England prefers to facetime with me usually on a Saturday morning (my time), but at this time, my iPad is still sitting in my purse from work on Friday! So, ya, you guessed it - I have a lot of missed facetime calls with him and a brother who asks, "when is the best time to get you?"
I use this analogy to bring a picture to you of our Father who is trying different communication lines to reach out to us...He sends people to prophesy over us, He gives us dreams, visions, and when we take the time to read our Bible, He speaks to us through the pages of the Word, by a specific verse that takes on a special meaning for us as a solution to a problem. But most times, we are "not available"...too busy... too stressed worrying about something. While the "Solution-Giver" is asking, "when is the best time to get you?" "What time can we speak together like friends and share our day?"
For Adam & Eve in the beginning, it was in the cool of the day, probably at sundown...they shared their day with their Father. For me, it's both in the morning, when I read a few verses, and at the end of my day, when I share my day with Him, worship Him, and have Him respond...
I recently had a facetime call with my brother and he was glad I was now taking the time to bring out my iPad on Saturday mornings to place on my desk...so I don't miss any of his calls anymore.
When do you speak with your Father? Keep communication lines open and let Him pass on divine solutions and anointed knowledge to you!
Stay connected to your Daddy because He delights in You!

Yikes! I'm Exiting!
When I first came to Canada, I was very intimidated by the 4 to 6 lane highways... I hated driving on them so for the first few months after getting my Canadian driver's license, I would go to places through the side streets, I always found a way. Then it came a day and my better half asked me if I wanted to continue living life in fear, wow! I had never processed the thought that far, that it was fear keeping me off the highways.
So me being the person that I am who loves a good challenge, decided it was time I got on the highway, and the first day, I cautiously got on the 401, one of our major highways in Toronto. I followed all the signs, kept to the speed limit of 100 km/hr and stayed on the right hand side...only to discover after a few minutes of driving, yikes! I'm exiting...! You see, most of the right hand lanes lead to ramps whereby you exit out of the 401, and as I checked around me, I discovered it was too late to change lanes.
"What is the worst that could happen", I thought to myself...I'll exit and come back on again,.. so that's exactly what I did. I exited, did a turn somewhere and got back on the 401 again without a hitch! And I thought, "that was easier than I expected!"
So when you think there's no way out of a situation and you feel like you're at a dead end, you're actually not...you're only exiting briefly, catching your breath and getting back on again, because there is ALWAYS a way out of ANY situation no matter how bad it looks! So just 'exit' out of the craziness of the moment into the Father's arms, rest. and re-fire!
Oh, and by the way, my son got his license this year and the first thing I let him know as he got on the highway was, "Don't stress out if you come upon an exit ramp and can't switch lanes on time, just exit and you can get back on again; so just relax"...
He loves you and delights in you a lot!

An Allegory of Deliverance
"She felt her wrists and realized the chains were no longer there...they had fallen off in the blinding flash of light that came forth few seconds ago. But the cave was still dark,, and she could still hear the growls of the dogs outside as they circled the entrance of the cave...something they did every night to ensure she didn't escape. Was she dreaming...or hallucinating...? Or was she really free...? If the latter, how would she leave without the dogs tearing her to pieces...?
She inched to the entrance of the cave then shrank back in fear as she spied the huge dogs circling the entrance...she stretched out her hand to steady herself on the cave walls and...waoh! They went right through as she let out a muffled scream...what-t-t-t! I'm invisible...or something similar...am I dead...? And then it hit her, the flash of light had made her invisible...her body was transformed to another substance, the kind that went through walls...did this mean...? She walked slowly and fearfully out of the cave, watching the dogs closely, it was as if she was invisible...she was! She walked right past all 4 of them and then broke into a run...freedom!"
Psalm 124:7-8 "We escaped like a bird from a hunter's trap. The trap is broken, and we are free! Our help is from the Lord, who made heaven and earth" (NLT version).
He delights in you, that's why He sent Jesus to die for your freedom!
