Just got back from my school where I teach Physical Education which means it’s time to get back to the daily grind of middle schoolers. On the way home I did alot of praying for the coming school year but please pray for me, my students, their parents, the staff especially new staff as they are probably a little annxious right now and the administration. Last year a friend of mine got a word from the Lord to claim Psalm 91 over me and my school and i claimed that chapter everyday I pulled up to school.

Please pray as the Lord leads you and if you have any words of knowledge please feel free to let me know. Your prayers are so important to me and can change the atmosphere of my school in mighty ways. You guys are all prayed up.

A Psalm Of Fearless Trust In God
Psalm 27:1-6
1The LORD is my (A)light and my (B)salvation;
Whom shall I fear?
The LORD is the (C)defense of my life;
(D)Whom shall I dread?
2When evildoers came upon me to (E)devour my flesh,
My adversaries and my enemies, they (F)stumbled and fell.
3Though a (G)host encamp against me,
My heart will not fear;
Though war arise against me,
In spite of this I shall be (H)confident.
4(I)One thing I have asked from the LORD, that I shall seek:
That I may (J)dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life,
To behold (K)the [a]beauty of the LORD
And to [b](L)meditate in His temple.
5For in the (M)day of trouble He will (N)conceal me in His tabernacle;
In the secret place of His tent He will (O)hide me;
He will (P)lift me up on a rock.
6And now (Q)my head will be lifted up above my enemies around me,
And I will offer in His tent (R)sacrifices with shouts of joy;
I will (S)sing, yes, I will sing praises to the LORD.

Pray for a revival in the drug cartels in Mexico. I am sure you heard about the 72 migrants who were killed in Mexico at one ranch only 100 miles from our border. Pray for a signs, wonders, and miracles to hit all the drug lords and their cronies and to convict their hearts to what they are doing and turn to the Lord. Pray for the safety of all the people of Mexico and people who are passing through Mexico. The Lord will take care of business in the end but what if revival spread today, right now. Come Holy Spirit open their blind eyes and deaf ears. I bind the enemy and cast him out of Mexico. Invade Holy Spirit. Come!

Last night I was having my quiet time with the Lord and I turned off my TV and was sitting still just thinking about things I wanted, things I wanted to do and some other issues that were taking over my mind. I felt mentally tired and a little frustrated so before I opened my Bible I asked the Holy Spirit to give me a specific word just for me and he delivered immediatley. I decided to read Psalm 23 and Proverbs 23 as it was August 23 and the first verse in Psalm 23 says,” The Lord is my shepherd I shall not want.” Remember my first sentence of this post. I was like yes Lord I hear you loud and clear. As I read through the chapter I was just humbled and felt a peace come over me. Lord I thank you for your rest, peace, blessings and that you go before me against my enemies and take care of business so I do not have to worry.

I then read Proverbs 23 which talks about life and conduct and then I thought about what my pastor said on Sunday morning. The answer I was looking for was simple. Pastor Hudgins said all we have to do is fall in love with God first then everything else comes together. So that is what I did in my quiet time and I praise you Lord for how you communicate with us and how you “make me lie down in green pastures, and lead me beside quiet waters” just at the right time.

Please pray for me and make sure to read Psalm 23 by clicking here and Proverbs 23 by here.

Hi Adam,

So GOOD to be reconnected to you thru Neal. You guys have loved each other a long time and I am thankful you two are in touch again. When I think of you, I see this photo I have of you and Neal and Kelly Harmer sitting down with legs crossed laughing. One thing I always loved about you as a little boy was how you laughed all over yourself. It was like a giggle. May you have those days again!!! I am SOOOO SORRY about your difficulties but I want to join you in believing this is the beginning of your new life!!! The Lord is in the business of redemption and He can redeem all those years and make beauty from ashes and give joy for mourning and praise for despair as it says in Isaiah 61. The Lord isn’t called “the Hound of Heaven” for nothing. He pursues His children till we say “Yes, Lord, here I am, make me over!”

I have had you on my heart and in my daily prayers since you contacted Neal. I just wanted to encourage you as one fellow struggler to another. Through some childhood issues I grew up with much fear, poor self-image and not much confidence. I have battled to trust all my life and most of all to trust God. I’ve had some real misconceptions about Him and it’s taken me a long time to come to more understand that He is always good and has our best interests at heart even when we can’t see it. This sounds like an oxy moron but at the same time I have loved the Lord and HIs Word since a little girl so I’ve had much to unlearn and unravel. Back in January of 1996 I got the diagnosis of Rheumatoid arthritis. I’ve always had a tremendous fear of illness and death so of course now I had to confront all my fears. God does that!!! In a prayer session with Him about 6 weeks into it, I said to Him if He wanted to say anything to me I was listening. What I saw was part of His arm and Hand asking me to give Him my fear. He also said that He would heal me. Well, it has been a circuitous route to the healing of body, soul and spirit. In these 14 years, The Lord has graciously put me with people who prayed much healing prayer over me both physically and emotionally and spiritually. I’ve done alot of deliverance prayer to get rid of past issues. He has given me many opportunities to surrender myself to Him but I’ve been still too fearful so He’s let me go around the mountain many times!!! May you be a quicker learner than me!!!

I think you are at last at a place to give up and listen to Him. What a great place to be. He will soooo bless you. I am praying that when you are in the Word, it will fairly jump off the page into your heart and so resonate with your spirit. How He has done that for me over this past year especially. I’ve had some gastrointestinal issues for 41/2 years. I have been working with Neal since April a year ago and things are alot better. But, I have had to battle great fear to do what he asked. For anyone else it would not have been a big deal but for me it was. He and Brad had to talk me “off the precipice” many times!!(Smile!!) They and God have had GREAT patience with me. I am blessed. During the year and a half, I’ve had many sleepless nights wondering what my body was doing and I learned that praise was the only thing that would combat the fear. I would go in the TV room and read the Psalms for an hour and then go back to bed. Several nights God gave me some little pictures of different things that comforted me and I knew He had heard me and was there. Even today, I was back at having to surrender to Him again and then our sermon at church today was about surrendering to God and letting Him write our script. So again, I knew He had been listening. As I’ve been continually in my Bible these last months, God has given me SO MANY Scriptures that have been ones to hold onto on a daily basis and remind Him He said it. Adam, before I go further, God is just reminding me that our root problem is that we don’t know His heart for us. That He has a burning affection for us. That He loves us in our weakness because He made us and knows us completely. That He doesn’t condemn us for failing so many times. That He sees us complete in Him because of His finished work on the Cross.

I have lived my life with catastrophe negative thinking and to change that has and is monumental. God is not like that but it has been very difficult to change my “stinking thinking” about myself and Him. At the beginning of the journey with Neal, He gave me a verse in Jeremiah that I want to pass on to you and I was saying it back to Him even today: I have I have loved you with an everlasting love, I have drawn you with loving-kindness. I will build you up again and YOU WILL BE REBUILT, Adam. Again you will take up your tambourine and go out to dance with the joyful.” Jer 31:3. Amen, Lord! !Let’s go out and dance with the joyful, Adam!!! It will be so!!!

While working with Neal, I was on a very strict eating regime to get rid of the H-Pylori and fungus and such and God gave me the grace to stick to just God food with no sugar or gluten——–just good food. I had lost weight because my gastrointestinal tract was not well and couldn’t hold the nutrients and I lost weight. That frightened me alot!!! After lunch one day, I said “God, You’ve really got to speak to me with some encouragement about this food thing.” So, I picked up this book I had been reading on Healing and The Holy Spirit and the first verse that I read was this;” Worship the Lord your God, Ginny and His blessing will be on your food and water. I will take away sickness from you.!!!” Oh, my gosh, I just was blown away by the Lord speaking so directly to me and answering so quickly. So after that I would take my little bottle of anointing oil and anoint my plate of food and worship God that He was blessing it. I did that for quite awhile. It was not needed but was a comfort to me. My GI tract is much better and Neal continues to work with me as I have to take medication for the RA that is hard on the body.

I have recently Memorized all of Romans 8 and there are so many promises in that chapter. So many Scriptures to repeat outloud and begin to believe them. I commend that chapter to you. I am trying to learn to switch my mouth to praise and here are some of the verses that I say:

Deuteronomy 33:25 “As my days are, so shall my strength be.”

2 Corinthians 5″17 “Because I am in Christ, I am a new person. The old life is gone and a new life has begun.”

Philippians 4:13 “I can do all things thru Christ who strengthens me.”

Hebrew 13:5 “He will never leave me or forsake me.”

Romans 8:31 “If God is for me, who can be against me?”

Romans 8:20 “Nothing can separate me from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus my Lord.” 1 John 4:4 “He who is in me is greater than he who is in the world.”

2 Corinthians 5:7 I walk by faith and not by sight.”

Philippians 1:6 “He who began a good work in me will continue it on to completion.”

Philippians 4:19 “My God will supply all my needs according to His glorious riches in Christ Jesus”.

Isaiah 40:29 “He gives power to the weak, and to those who have no might He increases strength.”

Judges 5:21 “O my soul, march on in Strength!!”

Adam, I know the Lord will give you the strength and peace to get well because He says in Psalms 29:11 “The Lord will give strength to His people and bless His people with peace.” He also says in Ps. 103 that He forgives all our sins and heals ALL our diseases!!

Lord Jesus Christ, Have mercy on your child, Adam, have mercy. Pour your mercies and grace on him that are new every morning. Strengthen him in his inner man with power through Your Holy Spirit to know deep in his heart how wide and high and long and deep is Your love for him and that that love surpasses knowledge. Make Your face to shine upon him and give him peace. Yes, Lord, come and we come in the powerful, majestic holy Name that is above all Names, Jesus Christ. Amen and Amen.

When you can’t pray, just know there are others who are lifting your name to the throne room to recieve grace and mercy in this time of need.

In God’s love, Adam. Please feel free to email any questions or comments to me. My your heart know that this has come from my heart to yours.

Good morning to you. I have a heavy heart for Pakistan and Northeastern China this morning. If you have been watching the news I am sure you know Pakistan is going through heavy monsoon rains where thousanda have died, a million homes badly damaged or destroyed the United Nations estimates over 20 million people are suffering and homeless. The World Health Organization reported that ten million people were forced to drink unsafe water and a large amount of their crops have been ruined so food is needed. In Northeastern China heavy rain and flooding has displaced 94,000 people so they are in need as well.

We are so blessed to live where we do so let’s be thankful today for all of our blessings and unite to pray for Pakistan and China. Father God I pray that you would drop your mana all over those lands. I pray that the water is miracalously clean and will cause no sickness. I command the clouds to dry up and dump no more rain until the lands dry and homes can be restored. I pray for an amazing amount of food and water aid to arrive in all the cities and towns in need. Holy Spirit come and bring hope, peace, trust, and calmness to these people and open their hearts to who you are.

Neal
