I love this trip, as it marks three years since the Lord closed the door of me working in a secular environment and walking into full time ministry. As I traveled down the same bridge I did a few years prior, I noticed the green and red markers in the water. Before He was revealing to me He would tell me when to stop and when to go. This year, I knew there was more to it. I recently discovered they mark the channel and show the boat captain where to safely go without hazards. I love how He was confirming how He has been equipping me along the journey, letting me know there is more, adding yet another layer…and assurance He will give me exactly what I need when I need it, amen?
New Assignment
This week, during our time of morning prayer together…Neil and I were challenged to compile a list of things we appreciate, admire, honor, respect, love, and value about one another and then thank the Lord for those things, amen?
Happy Daddy’s Day!
So thankful our Heavenly Father put these men in my life! Praying for each of them to walk out the purpose He has called them to and created them for!
Balance
I was sharing with Cherry the other day the Lord has been speaking to me about just flowing in the Spirit and not getting wrapped up in each and every detail and He has been speaking to her how she needs to slow down so she might not miss something He is trying to tell her. Today, Valerie shared how the Lord has been impressing on her heart she didn’t need to cut corners and I laughed because He has been releasing me of perfectionism. Isn’t it funny how unique we are and how differently the Lord speaks to each of us? Isn’t it interesting ho the Lord can use same scenario to teach each of us something totally opposite from our neighbor?
Meet With Me
I felt the Lord prompting me to get my house in order. Then, I heard “come to the table.” I recently met Saida and her mother in Yazoo City with a ministry that does just this! I had thought about selling my china, silver and crystal a few years back but never got around to doing it. I knew this was the reason why!
As I was cleaning the 15 years of grime off of them, I got emotional. I grieved the fact that I got them from my first marriage and had never used them. I also began feeling a little depressed as I had failed as a bride. So, I began talking to the Lord about it as I knew it was His prompting for me to release them. I fell to my knees and wept after hearing “you are helping me to prepare a banquet for My bride,” amen? Even as I am typing this I feel His presence and know His ways are so much higher than mine (Isaiah 55:8-9). I stand in awe and so thankful He is working all things out for His glory!
When I was getting everything ready to move, I remembered Belinda had given me a green travel mug so I could have some coffee one night I was headed back to Tupelo from her home. I thought how fitting…she released a mug and the Lord upgraded it to a four piece place setting! I am anxiously awaiting the stories of what happens at the table and how lives and communities are transformed because of her ministry, amen?
Rose of Sharon
Pam Robison gave me this prophetic painting in 2016 and I am just now beginning to understand it’s meaning. Several people have been calling me Sharon over the past few weeks and I realized the Lord was trying to get my attention. Susan means Lily…so there is great depth that I am only beginning to comprehend. “I am a rose of Sharon, a lily of the valleys. As the lily among the thorns, so is my love among the daughters.” (Song of Songs 2:1,2)
After slowing down, the Lord revealed to me that I have been striving and He wants me to rest in Him…Just as a flower in the middle of the field can’t do anything to receive more of the sun, neither can I do anything to receive more of the Son, just rest and enter into His presence, amen?
reviveTUPELO
This morning, my team felt led to go to the Elvis Presley Festival. On the way, we noticed Gary, a homeless gentleman sitting on a bench. We stopped and he asked us for a ride to Helping Hands. As we dropped him off he stated we should go to the flea market as he will be working there later today. We went, believing the Lord was using Gary’s words to direct our steps. We split off two by two. Aaron and I ended up pairing off together. He was such a blessing to me. I enjoyed hearing how the Lord is transforming his mind and life. He is the same age as my stepson Jonah, who we have not heard from for several months. My prayer is the Lord will grab a hold of Jonah and bring him back to Himself.Continue reading “reviveTUPELO”
Care Visit
What a wonderful visit we had with this crew!
Thanks to reviveMARRIAGE and the revive care team for coming to lift us up in prayer and offer our state team encouragement!
Neil and I were challenged to begin intentionally praying with one another 5 mornings a week to see how the Lord honored this time to strengthen our marriage. We both are looking forward to what God will do in and through us, our marriage, and ministries!
Prayer Ministry
The Lord has been highlighting pigs to me since my trip to Wisconsin. During the week I spent with Neil at the camp, the Lord revealed to me what the pigs meant. He has been preparing me to begin prayer ministry so others can experience help, hope, healing and freedom. He also has been burdening my heart to cover the TTR ministry and the Grace and Mercy ministry in prayer. This week it came to pass that teams were being created to do both of these things and I have been able to sit second chair on several calls where people have received prayer! Here I am Father, use me!
Transformation
Brittany gave me a word and I have been praying into it’s meaning. I am believing the Lord is giving new life to Neil and I’s marriage and He is going to be able to use both of us in new ways and on a whole new level!
Transformation is coming and revitalization is occurring! God is good and faithful!
