Labels- Christian - Disciple

 

 

Labels- What are you ?

Have you ever asked yourself, Just what am I ? What is my purpose here on this earth ? Why do I have to feel and go through the emotions that I experience ?

 

Well the Good news is that this particular question has been asked ever since the start of time.

 

You were created to be more than a label !

 

We all have them, Mother, Daughter, Wife, Employee , Boss, and on and on the list of worldly labels goes.

 

You have one label and that is that you are a child of God.  Even if you are unaware of that truth today, pray for his will in your life to be done and he will show you that you are His, fearfully and wonderfully made, in His image

 

 

Ok so I am a child of God. NOW WHAT ?

 

So glad you asked that, please grab your favorite beverage and allow me to explain !

 

You are marked by Love . You are a Original !  You are a " DISCIPLE"

 

You have bought with a price , a sacrificial love. A love that has washed away all your past mistakes, all your present mistakes and all the mistakes you will make in the future. You are Forgiven !

 

WHAT --- Yes it is true. " YOU ARE FORGIVEN !"

 

Are you a Christian ? Are you a chosen generation?  Are you a Disciple of Christ ?

 

Has your suddenly happened.  You suddenly realize that you see the world differently than most people and you do not want to be that Christian.

Following Christ does not mean following his followers !

 

Are you ready to leave behind the quarrels of Christianity ?

Are you a Outsider, living and loving like God did ? Or are you a Christian adhering to the labels of Christianity ?

 

The bible refers to the label a Christian only a few times and gives us no definition of what a true Christian is.

1 John 4:7-11

 

Dear loved ones , let us love one another for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Who ever does not love does not know God, Because God is love. 9---- Please continue to scripture to read 9-11 . Thank you !

 

Love is not for the weak, or the faint hearted, love is not mushy and soft all the time, Love is hard and is a self sacrifice, dying to self in order to meet the needs of another , person saved or not. People need people and hurt people, do not even know that they need love and others to be the hands and feet of Jesus Christ. Who are you showing the army of Love too, today ?

 

It is easy to love those who you get along with , but what about the unlovely - how do we love them ! Do we point out there flaws, or do we see that God can use all people for his kingdom ! Do we teach them that Jesus hung out with the lowly and the desperate , that Jesus healed the sick and the drunkards, he healed the blind and the prostitutes.  Are we afraid to go into the dark corners of another's life and be the light .  Are we that Christian that condemns others for the choices that they make , or do we show them the truth and the light and do we pray for salvation and redemption for them, and do we live according to Christianity or discipleship . A Disciple will show someone to the cross and love them all the way there, falling down a time or two, but knowing that God has a plan and can bring about a heart change.

 

Many have said I am a Christian because of what I believe. Well the truth is belief is not enough, we have to behave, Like Jesus. behavior opens the door to being a disciple and others will follow and want to work for the kingdom, when they see truth and good will being exemplified amongst us.

 

You do as I do period. There was no room for a belief, it was about behavior . The Teacher teaches and the student follows, Jesus taught how to live and behave.

 

Bottom line is do you - Do we ? live like a Christian ? Playing church on Sunday and wearing our best outfits looking like a "good" Christian or are we willing to get dirty for Jesus.

 

There is a expected behavior behind being a disciple . Period. Ask your self - Lord, am I am disciple of your ways and your will or do I play Christian ?

 

Today you can let go of the baggage that comes with being a Christian . You can choose to be a disciple for the Lord and work in his army of love. Would you lay down your life for a friend . That is love.  Here is a song to better describe to you , the definition of Love and sacrifice .

Jesus is the sacrifice of love..

Dear Lord ,
Teach us to love and live like you did.

Amen

 

A Temporay Position

                                                                      Matthew 8:26

 “You of little faith, why are you so afraid?” Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the waves, and it was completely calm.

Have you ever felt like your walking in the wilderness amongst thieves and wolves?   The proud and the arrogant. The taking of truth and twisting it to fit ones own personal needs. The trickery that rises up and the boasting of the self righteousness . Have you ever felt pressed on every side?  Unsure of what tomorrow holds , afraid to move forward ! 

Relating to the emotions and feelings above is a tremendous place to be. " Praise God !" You are teachable and open to change.  Praise God in all things!  The trials, the victories, the interference, the distractions, the static.  Jesus was tempted , He was lead into temptation and although he was lead into temptation he never sinned. We also are lead into temptation, by worldly things, by people who are self seeking and self sufficient and have yet to Find the God connection. Jesus was offered all the kingdoms of the world and its splendor, Can you imagine being offered, everything, never having to want or need for a thing, at least material anyway ? How empty would that be to have gained the "WHOLE " world and lose your soul ? See the scripture link to see how Jesus was tempted.http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+4:1-11

Matthew 4:1-11 

Do you feel like your enduring great pain for the kingdom and that you will not waiver in your faith.? If you can answer "YES" then you are on the path , the path that few find. Jesus told them to get away from me, for you did not know me. http://battle4truth.wordpress.com/2009/07/12/depart-from-me-i-never-knew-you-who-is-jesus-talking-to/

What did he mean ? Get away from me !
There are flocks of people who take the Gospel and twist it, using the Grace card as a card to intentionally sin, defile there bodies, indulge in greed, act out in emotions, living feeling from feeling and doing what feels good to the flesh. Not willing to sacrifice and endure long suffering, wanting what is available now and being hurtful and harmful in their affairs for the sake of boasting and being selfish.

http://biblehub.com/niv/2_timothy/4.htm
For I am already being poured out like a drink offering, and the time for my departure is near.  I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.  Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing.

We are here for a purpose , to carry the message of salvation. We have endured great pain and trials, and in return the Lord is our Rock and Refuge, For those who come thirsty and drink of the living water, you will never thirst again. Of course you will however suffer, you will suffer because he first suffered for you .

Today , I challenge you , to die to your self, live according to his will in your life. His will for you life is laid out in the instructions for life. The bible ! Every word for living is written. Healing is a choice and growing new daily and renewal of your mind, your actions, your ways  . You will need a loving , gracious God. You will also need a companion, a friend , God will send someone your way to mentor you , and to teach you , to love you and to show you his Mercy and Grace.

Know matter what you are going through today, persecution, false witnesses , lies , deceit, financial , health, family, marriage, hate , greed, envy, Know matter what you are feeling, You can't hide from God, He created you in the womb. He knows every hair on your head.  He knows what your going to think , do and say next. Pray for wisdom, forgiveness, repent and let Him cleanse you white as snow.

Let go of material things that bring instant enjoyment, yet never lasting Joy. Those things fade away, God will always stay with you , he will never leave or forsake you .

My prayer today :
Dear Lord Jesus, as we trudge the road of life, we hit road blocks , and we come up against opposition, lies, we are faced with treasures of the world, Money, and goods, that make us feel good now, but they fade away. Lord show us that you will always remain the same, always be faithful and always be true and pure, That you have plans for our lives and that they are good.

Jesus protect your children and for those who are lost in the world and the ways of the world, for those who have one foot believing in you and another foot living in sin, show them that you are the way the truth and the life. Lord let me ( us ) do the work of the Father, and nothing more, let us go where he sends us, giving all glory to God, from victory to victory , let us work in your kingdom and let us not worry or fear, or get dismayed , let us be a light in a dark world. Allow us to stand in the trials and show them you . Teach us to pray for one another and love one another , even if we do not agree, we do not have to Lord. You are the alpha and the omega, rule in my heart. In Jesus name Amen !

John 3:16
16For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. 18Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son. 19This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. 20Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed. 21But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what they have done has been done in the sight of God.

                                           Momentum
                                              

: the strength or force that something has when it is moving
: the strength or force that allows something to continue or to grow stronger or faster as time passes

Does the word momentum have anything to do with reaching goals and living a positive life?  I think that momentum is a huge word !

Do you have goals, dreams, hopes and desires ?  Of course you do , Dreams are what continue to keep a person moving forward in life, stop dreaming , stop living !

Being a positive, up-beat person takes work. Takes training in the mind, and takes acts of intentional momentum.  We are either living or we are dying ! Ask yourself are you living today, really , truly living a life filled with forward momentum and being all that you can be ?  I don't mean bursts of energy that create manic upward motion and then a crash.  I mean solid , forward motion, building your life on solid ground so that when life hits, the storms of life hit , you are sustained and can stand strong in the storm and continue to go forward and not waver.  This is not a part time Job, being strong and standing firm, and re-training your thoughts is a daily routine.  We live in such a fast paced society today, that loosing yourself is easy. 

In order to achieve anything a person must first believe that he/she can. That belief must be watered by good thoughts, actions and prayer.  Prayer is the key to momentum and positive results.  Not competition , not jealously , not the I will be better than another person or get more at any cost. NO that is not positive that is Evil and will not last.  The only way to change is from the inside out, and then the outside changes. A man is known by the over flow of his mouth, what you say and do outwardly is what dwells with in your thoughts, and Heart.  If you are always up and down in a certain area in your life, write about it, journal, pray, let go. God is not interested in begging, He knows what you need before you do. Ask him, then surrender to the fact that if it is in his will for you , you will receive , but you have to do the work, God wants to see you put action behind your faith. Faith with out works is nil.

Find out why you continue to go forward, and then back wards, what inside is lacking. How can you continue to keep forward momentum and change from patterns. It starts with a choice, you choose to change, and then you do what ever it takes , no matter what. " Ask God to release the chains that hold you down, and be prepared to fight the battle with him as your armor . Once you have his word that is the sword that cuts through all strife, disappointment, greed, lack , pity, self loathing , all the negative thoughts , the word of God is the truth and the truth sets captives free Armor of God http://www.wikihow.com/Put-on-the-Armor-of-God These are action steps, and require practice, pray out loud, and use the word to lift your momentum. Momentum means to grow and move forward. What ever is holding you back, the bible has a solution for. 

My prayer is that if you are struggling with anything, Family, holidays, food, addiction, marriage , family friends, our plates are full, its time to give them to the one who gives life.   " Father God, forgive us , for we do not know what we do, our thoughts are not your thoughts, we loss focus Lord and we feel at times we know best, Father God , speak to us, guide us, show us the way to your plan and allow us to walk, the narrow road, build in us momentum, to go forward, to change, to say NO to the things that harm us, to continue to walk in love and respect, show us how to love our neighbor and show us how to love self. Treat us as we would treat you , if you were in the room with us in the physical body, Lord, lift us up and forgive us. Show us how to stay focused on your will and your way, show us the work that you want our hands to do, give us the people that we are suppose to have, let us walk in the light and believe that your word is sufficient, sustain us lord in the times of trouble, allow us to build on solid ground so that when the winds blow , we can stand strong and say that the Lord is my rock."

Be blessed , live and let live

I prayed for you Luke 22: 32

Any one can copy paste as I did. However the message is that Jesus prayed for you. Read scripture verse 31 and 32. Satan wants to sift you as wheat.

Can you imagine being tossed to and from in a sifter, because Satan is at work in the world, Oh this is so powerful. I do hope you read all the way through, All though it is about Passover, It is relevant today as it is every day.  Your friends will deny the truth and shun what they do not wish to see. Truth is uncommon and they will walk in the ways of the flesh , filling the desires of the heart, Not the God conscience that they have been filled with through the spirit.  The path is so narrow, My friend. Please consider how narrow. We all may find that we need to tighten up , and stop denying that one that stretched out his hands and arms for you and Died. He came so that we may have life and have it abundantly, " I think abundantly is directed towards the full fruits of the spirit. Not your bank account, your net worth as a earthly citizen, but your net WORTH as a child of GOD. Do you know who you are ?  He draws you near to him, so that you may be presented as righteous, holy, and pure.  To Jesus you are everything. He loves you . No matter what you have done, where you have been, who you have hurt, There is a prayer for salvation, that turns into a belief that transforms everything about you. Your a citizen of heaven and you have an inheritance that you can't even imagine.  Do not be confused by the material things of this world, The king of Darkness wants to keep you busy, busy, busy, distraction after distraction, Need after Need. With Jesus you can find rest. Trust , Love, Joy, Happiness.

Ask yourself are you truly Joyful, I mean down in the pit of your stomach, JOYFUL. If not turn to him who is worthy of " PRAISE"  and " WORSHIP ". You can't loose, God wants to redeem your life, like and exchange , but you have to ask, accept, believe and then live inside His will, not 1/2 the time but all the time, When you fall short repent, ask for forgiveness, then stop that behavior, because power is exalted and lifted high to those who ask. We have no "POWER" because we do not ask for it. We are made in his image, that means you have a POWER supply. Seek ye the kingdom of God and all things will be known to you. You have to seek, knock and then answer when he calls. Faith without work is dead.

I hope this blesses you and gets you to thinking about the real reason your here, how God has spared your life and brought you out of the darkness, the faith of a mustard seed is all you need, Then read, pray and march on like a Child of God, loved and flawless, He has given you a new spirit. When they see Me, ( you ) what do they see. Make them want Jesus, Thirst for him. Be a disciple of the King.

Judas Agrees to Betray Jesus

22 Now the Festival of Unleavened Bread, called the Passover, was approaching, ² and the chief priests and the teachers of the law were looking for some way to get rid of Jesus, for they were afraid of the people. ³ Then Satan entered Judas, called Iscariot, one of the Twelve. ⁴ And Judas went to the chief priests and the officers of the temple guard and discussed with them how he might betray Jesus. ⁵ They were delighted and agreed to give him money. ⁶ He consented, and watched for an opportunity to hand Jesus over to them when no crowd was present.

The Last Supper

⁷ Then came the day of Unleavened Bread on which the Passover lamb had to be sacrificed. ⁸ Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and make preparations for us to eat the Passover.”
⁹ “Where do you want us to prepare for it?” they asked.
¹⁰ He replied, “As you enter the city, a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him to the house that he enters, ¹¹ and say to the owner of the house, ‘The Teacher asks: Where is the guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?’ ¹² He will show you a large room upstairs, all furnished. Make preparations there.”
¹³ They left and found things just as Jesus had told them. So they prepared the Passover.
¹⁴ When the hour came, Jesus and his apostles reclined at the table. ¹⁵ And he said to them, “I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer. ¹⁶ For I tell you, I will not eat it again until it finds fulfillment in the kingdom of God.”
¹⁷ After taking the cup, he gave thanks and said, “Take this and divide it among you. ¹⁸ For I tell you I will not drink again from the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.”
¹⁹ And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me.”
²⁰ In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you.^{[a] 21} But the hand of him who is going to betray me is with mine on the table. ²² The Son of Man will go as it has been decreed. But woe to that man who betrays him!” ²³ They began to question among themselves which of them it might be who would do this.
²⁴ A dispute also arose among them as to which of them was considered to be greatest. ²⁵ Jesus said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them; and those who exercise authority over them call themselves Benefactors. ²⁶ But you are not to be like that. Instead, the greatest among you should be like the youngest, and the one who rules like the one who serves. ²⁷ For who is greater, the one who is at the table or the one who serves? Is it not the one who is at the table? But I am among you as one who serves. ²⁸ You are those who have stood by me in my trials. ²⁹ And I confer on you a kingdom, just as my Father conferred one on me, ³⁰ so that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom and sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
³¹ “Simon, Simon, Satan has asked to sift all of you as wheat. ³² But I have prayed for you, Simon, that your faith may not fail. And when you have turned back, strengthen your brothers.”
³³ But he replied, “Lord, I am ready to go with you to prison and to death.”
³⁴ Jesus answered, “I tell you, Peter, before the rooster crows today, you will deny three times that you know me.”
³⁵ Then Jesus asked them, “When I sent you without purse, bag or sandals, did you lack anything?”
“Nothing,” they answered.
³⁶ He said to them, “But now if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don’t have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one. ³⁷ It is written: ‘And he was numbered with the transgressors’^[b]; and I tell you that this must be fulfilled in me. Yes, what is written about me is reaching its fulfillment.”
³⁸ The disciples said, “See, Lord, here are two swords.”
“That’s enough!” he replied.

Staying in God's Love

How do we know what is true, what is pure and what is righteous ?  We listen to people all day long every day , tell us what way to go, music , media, preachers, teachers, everyone has the right path to follow, but did you know that the true path, the true way the only way to the path was through Jesus Christ the Son of God. He is the way , the truth and the life.

After reading the open statement,  I pray that you follow along, grab your bible, find out for yourself if what I am sharing is true.  Always seek first the kingdom of God and all things will be shown to you.

                                           JUDE 17-23

Your ministry is coming along well and suddenly , your asking yourself why is it that something just does not seem right, the atmosphere is changing and you can not put your finger on it. Well friends, Remember this " it is not something strange " 17-19

There are going to be those who come along and divide and separate the good, the Will of God, those that are seeking His kingdom and doing his work, they will corrupt and follow their own selfish , fleshly desires and they will do it through Gossip, through immoralities and through wants and needs that feed the human flesh and the darkness of this age. They want to follow and obey the word of God, yet they allow the emotions to direct the path they live instead of dying daily and being new in Christ , they live for today, devouring what ever they may. " This is in your body of Christ , the church you worship in and attend .

                            Remember to take care of your self spiritually vv 20-21

Prayer is talking to God, and Prayer is what unlocks the answers when we listen to the direction of the Holy spirit that dwells in us, Have you ever just been at a loss for words in prayer, then suddenly words came and embraced your prayer that were not your own. That is the workings of the Holy Spirit you have dwelling in you and working through you , because you are a Child of the King and you have been redeemed.  Obeying Gods word builds you up , you have the defense and the sword on your side, to be faithful and to see those that are coming , that do not believe that try and twist the truth. Those that are living in sin, and yet attending worship, praising and believing that the wages of the Sin they are living is, does not really matter to God because his grace forgives them.  OH my friend, Grace is not a card to go forward and to Sin, the bible makes it very clear , about Obedience and diligence . We are not given a free pass to do what ever makes the flesh feel good, just because we can, and God forgives.  I would hate to get to the end of the path and find out that by know means did his Grace allow me to continue in sin, once I have been taught better.  The only way to learn, is to read the leaves of life ( BIBLE ) pray and be a diligent servant and follow his commandments. Not living on foolish desires that fade away and are temporal to this earth.

We have Hope that the Kingdom to come is much more worth loosing the desire of the flesh and turning away from sin, Those come into the church as if something strange is happening and they listen to the corruption that others plant in the thirsty ears , and they start to divide and separate what the One true God had intended , the one true road map to life in Christ, they start to minimize and deduct the teaching of the Lord and they add there own recipe to fit the needs of the selfish desires that are defiling the church and the members in the church. Jude was on a mission to share the truth that The doubters, the distant and the deniers  were going to pull and separate those who love Christ and are doing his Will.

Colossians 2:6-8

 

Spiritual Fullness in Christ

⁶ So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him, ⁷ rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.
⁸ See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces^[a] of this world rather than on Christ.

Verse 8 " See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy " 

Ephesians 2:19-22

 

¹⁹ Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and strangers, but fellow citizens with God’s people and also members of his household, ²⁰ built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone. ²¹ In him the whole building is joined together and rises to become a holy temple in the Lord. ²² And in him you too are being built together to become a dwelling in which God lives by his Spirit.

There is that word Spirit again, That is the Holy spirit that dwells in you, build a relationship with this power, Your temple is a Holy temple, Jesus Christ is the cornerstone ! Wow think about that for awhile !

Ephesians 6:18

 

¹⁸ And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.

This scripture is telling us to pray on ALL occasions, with all kinds of prayer. Let me tell you that HELP is a powerful prayer, when you do not know what to do, HELP, has power to turn the colors of darkness in your life over to the power of the Light.
The most powerful prayer I have ever prayed was this " I don't know, but GOD I know you know, so guide me, lead me , take my will and my life and show me.

Ok Now below is the scripture you have been waiting for this is the whole point, below ! 

Jude 1:17-23

 

A Call to Persevere

¹⁷ But, dear friends, remember what the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ foretold. ¹⁸ They said to you, “In the last times there will be scoffers who will follow their own ungodly desires.” ¹⁹ These are the people who divide you, who follow mere natural instincts and do not have the Spirit.
²⁰ But you, dear friends, by building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit, ²¹ keep yourselves in God’s love as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life.
²² Be merciful to those who doubt; ²³ save others by snatching them from the fire; to others show mercy, mixed with fear—hating even the clothing stained by corrupted flesh.^[a]

But Dear Friends remember , read above over and over again. We all know a scoffer, someone who follows there own ungodly desires, These are those who divide you, they follow natural instinct and do not have the spirit. ( Yet raise the hands and sing songs of praise, walk away and sin, using the grace card, to be forgiven , NOT SO FRIENDS..

Our Job --- is to be merciful to those who doubt, fellow followers of CHRIST, we have the power to snatch THEM from the fire. We should do this with a trembling of fear of the Lord, a calling to tell the truth, even to friends, who are doing things that are not Godly. We are called to snatch them from the " FIRE " !  We have the ability to tread lightly yet show mercy and speak truth.

Are you willing to build yourself up first spiritually in Christ so that when you run into those who are doubters, and unbelievers, and corrupted in every way. Are you willing to spend time with them to share the truth, of the living Gospel, The love of Jesus Christ.  Can you offer practical help with compassion ?

1 Thessalonians 5:8-11

 

⁸ But since we belong to the day, let us be sober, putting on faith and love as a breastplate, and the hope of salvation as a helmet. ⁹ For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. ¹⁰ He died for us so that, whether we are awake or asleep, we may live together with him. ¹¹ Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.  ( awake or asleep means dead or alive ) in Him.

Do you know that Mercy bends down real low, to build up others in his love.

My prayer is that you found truth in this reading and that you search your heart, many are among us who are distant, yet show up every Sunday, smiling and acting as if all is well. The spirit will show you how to talk, who to talk to , are you ready to listen to the prompt . God is making all things New, his love can never fail.
Are you willing to show someone the real facts, the real truth, are you willing to show someone the finished works of Christ. No more excuses, Grace is not a license to sin !

Lord, may these words touch the life of some, may it change the life of many, may it bear good fruits and be wholesome truths based from your spirit and not mine. In your holy , precious name I pray.

Holy spirit be welcomed in this place http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sjSynw6fN1U

Dear God I am applying for a position in your kingdom . I have previous experience in being a great sinner and a unlovely Human being to your son Jesus Christ.

My past few Jobs :

1) In the past I did what ever felt good and what ever I wanted to in order to deal with life and I never trusted a loving God or his Son.

2) All the things on earth I though were mine and never realized that you created all things in for us to live a peaceful and abundant life. I defiled your name and never praised you .

3) I was disobedient and feed my desires with thoughts of consequences .

4) I never shared your love or spread the God news about your love and reverence .

Why I qualify :

God, there was a moment of clarity many times in the past , were I realized I should turn my will and my life over to you, however those times were only for selfish gain and rescue, never planting my seeds on solid soil .

Today I am faithful , putting aside desire and need in order to serve you and your kingdom, your children, you have given me life and broke the chains, in order for me to be a chain breaker through you as well.

In exchange for my service, you will transform lives, heal the sick, deal with the addiction, break hearts for what breaks your hearts, and you will protect and provide all my needs, and yes allow me to live in peace and abundance of who I am in you.

Thank you for your time in this matter.

Sincerely Your Daughter

Pamela Joy Benigno.
