His AWESOME Presence
In the Old Testament, the ark of the covenant represented the presence of the Lord. I cannot stress enough how much we need God's presence in our lives. In fact, we need His presence more than we need anything else.
When God called Moses to tell Pharaoh to let God's people go, Moses was scared and insecure about his lack of abilities. But God said to him, " I will surely be with you" (Exodus 3:10-Fourteen). Later God told Moses, " My presence shall go with you and I will give you rest" (Exodus 33:Fourteen). I love Moses reply: If Your Presence does not go with me, do not carry us up from here!" (Exodus 33:Fifteen) In other words, "God, if You're not going to be there,don't send me!" That's exactly the way I feel when I start to minister to others.
We have to understand the awesomeness of the presence of God and the magnitude of what is available to us as believers if only we will take the time to be in His presence! Why in the world would we not want to spend time with God? We seem to have no problem in investing our time in other pursuits. The truth is this: The devil fights us more in the area of our spending time with God than he does in any other area of our Christian lives. In fact, Satan would much prefer that we get involved in all kinds of religious activity rather than spend time with the Lord.
There is only one way I know to maintain the anointing on my life and that is by spending time in the presence of God. You may be wondering, but what do I do when I spend time with God? You simply set aside a portion of your time for that purpose. Try not to be legalistic about it, but do try to be as regular with it as you can. During that time period, read the Bible and Christian books that minister to you. Talk to God. Sometimes you may want to listen to Christian music and worship; other times you may want to sit there and enjoy the silence. If you will do that, you will begin t feel and sense the presence of the Lord.
-Joyce Meyer
It's not popular.....
Its not popular being a Prophet because you are salt and light. Most love the light but when its time to distribute the salt to preserve the people and the gifts... of God, most jump in their flesh even if they know it's true and address the messenger instead of listening to the message. I never understood (until now) why I was raised and bred as a loner because when Spirit desires to use your voice and speak through you, You cant be worried about flesh, loosing friends or popularity, sometimes all these attachments will place a mussel on you and render you void and ineffective in an area you were called to bring change. I never mind standing alone when it comes to proclaiming what I hear and those that know God will know me. A person that dont stand for something will fall for anything. I aint that girl!!! Peace and Blessings! -

Having Trouble with Giving and Receiving Apologizes?!
When I saw this book, I was open to change in my perspective and curious.
After reading it, what I learned from this book is AMAZING!!!!!
There are different ways that we all accept an apology. And the practice of apologizing is the act of healing our soul and reconciling our relationships (romantic and non-romantic) This book has inspired me to become apologetically conscious. Im now learning how to give genuine heartfelt apologizes and also teach others how I would like to receive them.(God is at work producing fruit in this area.) We all have an apology language. It maybe foreign but learning how to speak it can change your life. If you need I good read, my suggestion is to start here.
