I know the LORD and trust Him with all of my heart, all of my mind, all of my soul, AND with all of my strength! This is not hyperbole but is buried deep within my soul. I can honestly say that every promise God has ever made me during my lifetime has been fulfilled. Through the years, I have maintained faith in God’s promises and held to my faith in uncertainty only because God, the LORD, had spoken.
The Faith Journey I embarked upon has been the best thing in my life. First, He allowed me to KNOW Him and then HEAR His voice! Next, He taught me how to TRUST Him and ultimately how to OBEY Him! There has been so much learned along the way. PEACE is underrated until you have experienced the PEACE of the great “I AM THAT I AM.” Through this incredible journey, I fell madly, radically in love with God! Loving Jesus brings clarity to ALL matters.
Over thirty years ago, God commissioned me to write a book. Of course, I said yes and started to write even though I knew nothing about getting a book published. God assured me that He knew everything that I needed to know. Even though the years have passed, I continued to trust God. I even realized that my students often laughed at my insistence that “God said it and I believe it.” I eventually wrote that book, which will be published on Wednesday, May 7th, 2025! Please read the messages that are included. Trust the revelations provided, no matter how they appear to the natural mind. We are spiritual beings and we must follow in spirit and truth! The book is called, “A Call from God for Change.”
He said it, I believed it, and God delivered! Thank you, LORD God, my Savior and my very best Friend! Now, to all Christians, Trust God at all times. Feed your faith daily by seeking His face and avoiding the enemy’s whispers in your ears. Guard your spirit always before the Lord.

Dear Heavenly Father, My LORD, and My God. Thank you for yet another opportunity to praise your name. I thank you, LORD, for holding me and guiding me down this dark road of confusion. I am grateful for that which I do know as it is your everlasting truth that keeps me grounded. Thank you, LORD!
The world is filled with tolerance. This has become a way of getting along with each other. O God, help us to see that this really is a way for the devil to push us into phases of compromise to abandon your will! O Father God, how excellent is your Wisdom, Knowledge, and Understanding. I am grateful to know, LORD, that the playing field for all created Souls is equal. How sad it would be, Lord, for you to cherish one race over another or to promote one gender as superior to another! How sad, LORD, would we all be if you gave more wisdom to the rich and famous than you offer to the ordinary man or woman or the poor. Your love reaches all walks of life and spreads itself wide and long as it wraps around the universe. For this I say thank you, Father God! Your love is not for sale. But…we must belong to you, having come with a willing mind. Your truths are everlasting and the “tolerance” offered by your enemy is only for a season. Thank you, LORD, for being my God!
Your Wisdom is tied to the Holy Ghost and the Holy Ghost is Wisdom. They are a part of you AND all of you. Your Wisdom is available to all who seek to know you. Teach me, LORD. I want to know ALL things that are you. I want not only to know, but I want to “Understand” everything about you. For those who laugh and mock my love and devotion for you and my willingness to obey without a natural reason, I say, “so let it be, dear LORD.” I have discovered that there is nothing that I can imagine placing ahead of you. You have tried me, LORD, and you have tested my faith and found me to be deserving of your love. I, too, have considered the world and all it has to offer and I have chosen you. All safety is found in you, my God. All love flourishes because of you!
Your requests to me and all who claim to love you are few. All you desire, Sweet Jesus, is our love. How wonderful you are that you do not make us love you or beg us to love you. Yet, you continue to plead with us to open our eyes, see who you are, and understand what you are offering. O Lord, you have given us amazing free will to accept or reject your love. Today, LORD God, I proclaim loudly for all to hear that I again choose you! I understand your lack of tolerance for our sinfulness. If we are to be yours, we must truly follow you and give up our wicked ways. We must not follow others, but follow you only, Lord God. Help me, LORD, to follow you only day by day.
Dear Father, I pray now for Dissect My Soul Ministries. Thank you, Lord, for trusting me with your missions. I say, “Yes, LORD,” even with the recognition that I have no idea of how to carry out your plans. I am so grateful that you guide me continuously. I don’t need to know why or how. I just need you to guide me and lead the way. May your everlasting mercy shine upon all the students you have sent my way. May your blessings of protection fall around all participants in the “Love Jesus” Movement. Tonight, I praise your HOLY NAME. Amen.

We have been taught by the world that “tolerance” is a good thing. We have come to understand that we must be willing to give and take or to compromise for the overall good of those with whom we live, work, or play. It is through compromise that Satan moves in our hearts to distort our views of right and wrong and ultimately offers us a “new” form of righteousness that is not of God. God has taught me that His ways are not negotiable. He is not democratic. And more to the point, He is NOT tolerant of sin! This is not to say that we will not make mistakes. We will, and we do. However, we must come before God with a truly repentant heart and seek forgiveness from the Lord. He will not listen to our spoken words, but will look into our hearts for our true intent instead. There He will find the truth! With this truth, if we are indeed truly repentant, He washes away the stains of our sins and continues to grant us access to His presence.
As you read and “pray the scriptures” below as you have been taught by me…look for the words of truth spoken by God to King Solomon. He loved him unconditionally, BUT He was clear with His expectations of him and all the people of Israel. God refused to tolerate sin or disobedience. He does not want or need our false prayers and sacrifices without us giving Him total access to our hearts. He does not need us to partially dedicate our lives to Him…He wants ALL of our hearts! He does not need our songs of praise…He wants ALL of our hearts!
Scripture for Consecration:
After King Solomon had completed the building of the Temple for God, look at what the people and God did. (vs 1-11).
God’s Reaction to Solomon’s prayer after the dedication of the temple. God will NOT be mocked and is an ALL consuming Fire as verified by the scriptures below:
1 Now when Solomon had made an end of praying, the fire came down from heaven, and consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices; and the glory of the Lord filled the house. 2 And the priests could not enter into the house of the Lord, because the glory of the Lord had filled the Lord’s house. 3 And when all the children of Israel saw how the fire came down, and the glory of the Lord upon the house, they bowed themselves with their faces to the ground upon the pavement, and worshipped, and praised the Lord, saying, For he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever. 4 Then the king and all the people offered sacrifices before the Lord. 5 And king Solomon offered a sacrifice of twenty and two thousand oxen, and an hundred and twenty thousand sheep: so the king and all the people dedicated the house of God. 6 And the priests waited on their offices: the Levites also with instruments of musick of the Lord, which David the king had made to praise the Lord, because his mercy endureth for ever, when David praised by their ministry; and the priests sounded trumpets before them, and all Israel stood. 7 Moreover Solomon hallowed the middle of the court that was before the house of the Lord: for there he offered burnt offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings, because the brasen altar which Solomon had made was not able to receive the burnt offerings, and the meat offerings, and the fat. 8 Also at the same time Solomon kept the feast seven days, and all Israel with him, a very great congregation, from the entering in of Hamath unto the river of Egypt. 9 And in the eighth day they made a solemn assembly: for they kept the dedication of the altar seven days, and the feast seven days. 10 And on the three and twentieth day of the seventh month he sent the people away into their tents, glad and merry in heart for the goodness that the Lord had shewed unto David, and to Solomon, and to Israel his people. 11 Thus Solomon finished the house of the Lord, and the king’s house: and all that came into Solomon’s heart to make in the house of the Lord, and in his own house, he prosperously effected.
God knew the heart of the people and He then made sure King Solomon understood. He explained that He had indeed heard the great prayer offered by King Solomon and saw the many sacrifices offered for the establishment of the new temple that was built for the Lord. BUT, He still made it plain that He was NOT tolerant of sin! The promises of God are true, but there are conditions to be met. O LORD, have mercy on our souls. Be wise in your reading and understanding of these scriptures.
God appears to Solomon and gives him some conditional promises
12 And the Lord appeared to Solomon by night, and said unto him, I have heard thy prayer, and have chosen this place to myself for an house of sacrifice. 13 If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I command the locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people; 14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.15 Now mine eyes shall be open, and mine ears attent unto the prayer that is made in this place. 16 For now have I chosen and sanctified this house, that my name may be there for ever: and mine eyes and mine heart shall be there perpetually. 17 And as for thee, if thou wilt walk before me, as David thy father walked, and do according to all that I have commanded thee, and shalt observe my statutes and my judgments; 18 Then will I stablish the throne of thy kingdom, according as I have covenanted with David thy father, saying, There shall not fail thee a man to be ruler in Israel 19 But if ye turn away, and forsake my statutes and my commandments, which I have set before you, and shall go and serve other gods, and worship them; 20 Then will I pluck them up by the roots out of my land which I have given them; and this house, which I have sanctified for my name, will I cast out of my sight, and will make it to be a proverb and a byword among all nations. 21 And this house, which is high, shall be an astonishment to every one that passeth by it; so that he shall say, Why hath the Lord done thus unto this land, and unto this house? 22 And it shall be answered, Because they forsook the Lord God of their fathers, which brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, and laid hold on other gods, and worshipped them, and served them: therefore hath he brought all this evil upon them. (2 Chron 7:1-22)

Dear Heavenly Father, LORD God Almighty. I humble myself to you today acknowledging that you ARE God. Thank you, Father, for the many blessings, teachings, trials, and tribulations that have come my way. Thank you, LORD, for delivering me from the hands of my enemies. I praise your Holy Name, my Lord, for loving me as you do. I am not worthy of all that you do for me. Please continue to search my heart, my Lord, and know that there is nothing or anyone more important in this world to me than you. Without you, Lord Jesus, I cannot stand. I would not survive one day in this miserable place called Earth without you. My eyes are opened to see the devastations and the evil lurking at every corner. Help us, LORD. Do not forget your people, LORD! Remember to help us because we are not capable of helping ourselves.
Each day, as I consider the magnitude and depth of your love for all men, I am left speechless. You maintain an outstretched arm even when we sin against you, God. You keep trying to reach us to teach us how to live for you…how to truly love you. Yet we reject you for instant pleasures and wisdom gained from this world instead. Help me, LORD God, to receive your love more and more each day. Help me, LORD, to know that your love is everlasting and that nothing can stop me from loving you, if this is my desire. Help me to know and understand that through the love relationship that we have developed, there is no fear that you will ever stop loving me. Amen. Nothing can ever separate me from your love! Yet, Sweet Jesus, I understand that you will not tolerate my evil heart. Clearly this is why you have commanded that we love you with all our heart, all our soul, all our mind, and all of our strength. When we love you as you desire, there is no room for evil to take control. So thank you, Father God. I give you permission to continue to “Dissect My Soul,” dear Lord.
I pray now, Lord, for the members of Dissect My Soul. I pray for all those that have joined the “Love Jesus” Movement. Keep them safe, Lord God. Help them to always remember that the only way to overcome the evil in this world is to maintain an intimate love relationship with you. Dear Lord, the world is changing around us, second by second. You have taught me not to be shocked or alarmed at the evil that is increasing in the world today. Help my followers and disciples to be unafraid. Help them, Lord, to be bold and truthful in their daily walk with you. Protect them, Father God, as they go. As they seek your face, minute by minute, bring them into your presence that they might know and understand the degree of your love for them. Please do this for me, Lord Jesus! Grant them peace and shelter within your Presence. Thank you, LORD Jesus, for your love. Amen.

Do you realize how much The LORD loves YOU! The God who created all things is madly in love with you. Every day, I discover and understand the love of God in ways that I could never imagine before. Consider the true story below:
“Tell him that I love him:”
A few weeks ago, I was having trouble with my laptop. I knew that I needed to get it repaired immediately as I was leaving the country in a few days and would need it while I was away. I began to search on Google for a service center that could help me with short notice. I immediately found a nearby shop that could see me that day. As I spoke to the gentleman on the phone, I encountered a “spirit” that I could not identify at the time. It was informative, yet aloof; semi-kind yet rude. When I arrived for my appointment, I was greeted and assisted by a very personable young man. This was clearly not who I had spoken to over the phone. There was another gentleman there that appeared to be the boss. He was very demanding of his employees and seemed to micromanage their every move. I inquired of the whereabouts of the gentleman that I had spoken to on the phone, as I had gotten his name. Not surprisingly, the gentleman on the phone was the same as the man that appeared as the boss. He was the boss.
At the end of the service visit, some 5 hours later since the laptop had to be left with them, I noticed a sign in the shop that appeared to be of a Christian nature. The “boss” had begun to introduce me to various types of software that would be helpful to me in the real estate business, and my husband and I listened attentively. Suddenly, the conversation changed to life issues regarding the government and how he believed that “Big Brother” was forever watching our every move. On the surface of what he was saying I had no objections, but spiritually I knew there was more to the story. I found this man to be extremely intelligent and very well read. He was educated and boasted of his knowledge as a neurophysicist. He continued to talk about various subjects that further demonstrated his vast knowledge of the physical world. I looked at the poster again and I asked him if he was a Christian. He hesitated slightly and then said he was neither a Christian nor an Atheist. He explained himself as a man of wisdom that looks at everything based on scientific fact. Our conversation was too detailed to recap it all here, but I then knew why God had sent me to this place.
God had a message for this man. I was instructed to let him know that Jesus loves him no matter what he believes. No matter what I said to him, he would ignore my words and wanted only to debate the reality of the true existence of God. I refused to debate. I was able to honestly say to him that I did not have to debate because I am “absolutely” sure that God is real. I explained that I do not rely on the words or testimonies of others as I have personally seen and heard the voice of God Almighty. I explained that there is nothing that he could say that could change my mind as I KNOW that my God IS God! We ended this conversation with me begging him to go to my website and read my testimony to understand how I came to “Know” absolutely that Jesus Christ is the living son of God and that God is real. He promised me that he would. By the end of our conversation, I saw the human spirit within this man that had an unspoken yearning to know if I was speaking the truth.
Since that day, I am compelled to pray for him daily. I only pray that God’s will is accomplished in his life. I do not know what will happen. But I do know, even while he was denying the existence of my LORD, God was holding an outstretched arm trying to pull this man into His presence. Today, the LORD shared with me that this man has been chosen by him to be a Messenger to this dying Christian world! He will continue to pull at his heart until he accepts. O LORD God, what an awesome loving act this is.
How can this real life story encourage us all? Know that God is love. He has the answer to all our problems. He has a purpose for this man. Does He have one for you? Humble yourself to gain a true relationship with Jesus Christ. There is no other hope in this world.
The devil is deceiving the people of God daily. Do not be caught in his trap. Do not think of yourself as better than this man. He has lived as he has lived by the grace of God and NOW God Almighty will mold him and equip him with “absolute” truth. Truth that he has no knowledge of, but truth that he will soon come to love and adore.
Be aware of the influence of evil disguised as good! A few days after my encounter with the man, I was in a church service and saw the people lifting up their hands and praising God! They sang beautiful, melodious songs unto the Lord God. The LORD began to speak to me and said, “Look at them my child. They lift up their hands, they shout, and they praise. But they do not praise me. They do not worship me. Their hearts are far from me!” God shared that the man at the computer shop would more quickly convert to loving Him completely than the hypocrites that were pretending to love Him. “O LORD God,” I cried! “Have mercy on us, LORD. Help us to learn what it means to love and worship you with ALL of our soul.” Be careful that you give no place to the devil within your heart. This can only be completed through surrendering everything to God in prayer! You can never resist the devil and he will never flee until you surrender all. Amen.
Scripture Reference for Meditation and Obedience:
Our fight in this world is not against flesh and blood. We are not to fight against each other. We are called to love each other as God loves us. Do not wrap yourself up in the politics of this world. Lean unto the LORD for all the wisdom that you need. Your one true purpose in life is to fall in love with Jesus Christ, My Lord, and Savior. Fighting each other will produce no spiritual fruit in our lives. Loving the Lord God by trusting and obeying His commands will yield an overflowing of spiritual knowledge and blessings. Remember, everything “spiritual” is NOT from God. Satan is a spirit whose purpose is to present himself as God in our lives.
1 From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members? 2 Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. 3 Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts. 4 Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. 5 Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy? 6 But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8 Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded. (James 4:1-8)

May all evil spirits be bound in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ as this Prayer is read.
Dear Heavenly Father, how great is your name; how amazing is your Wisdom; how Powerful is your Love! Every day you “stir up”my mind, my heart, and my soul and reveal even yet a deeper part of your Wisdom. Thank you, LORD! The depth of the name “Dissect My Soul” is overwhelming to my tiny little spirit. I received the name and I ran with it, LORD, just as you asked. I knew that it removed all the impurities and prepared my heart to be one with you, LORD God. But, O My Savior, my Friend, it is so much more! I now see, LORD, that until the heart of man is “dissected, changed, or altered” from its original state, that your love cannot penetrate. You want to possess our souls completely. You, Lord Jesus, want to be one with us as God is one with you! You, O Lord, want to guide and direct us as God, the Father, guided and directed you while you were on earth. The same love you received as you fulfilled the mission of God is the love you are prepared to pass on to all that will receive you. To receive your love, Lord, is to obey you and submit unto you. Amen.
Help me, Sweet Jesus, to surrender all of me to you each day. Help me to move forward every second of my day submitting my will unto you so that your perfect will can be done in my life. Help me, Lord, to obey you because I am in Love with you and not because it is the “Christian” thing to do. Help me, O God, to look beyond me and always see you. Let my meditations, motivation, and my heart’s desire be surrendered unto you forever and always. Please, LORD God, Dissect My Soul! I know, LORD, that I cannot do these things for myself. I cannot save me, O LORD. I cannot perfect my ways and submit my mind in any way. It is you, O God, that MUST perfect me. I am incomplete without you, and I am “perfect” with you. How grievous is the sound to my ear that says we cannot achieve perfection in this life. God forbid and have mercy on us all, Lord God! Would you allow the Holy Scriptures to declare that I can be perfect, LORD, and they not be available to me? Is this a mind game, Lord Jesus? O how I trust your every word. Amen. How true are your promises, LORD God! When you dissected my soul, you taught me how to trust you and to lean absolutely on you and you alone. You created a holy union between my sprit and your Holy Spirit. You then filled me with the Holy Ghost. It is the Holy Ghost that has your everlasting love. This love then flows from the Holy Ghost into me! It is this Holy Ghost power that regenerates my spirit. It is the Holy Ghost “Love” that gives me new life and the ability to declare that I am born again! I am not clean enough or pure enough, and never will be, to approach you alone. I must be filled with Your Holy Ghost. O God, how marvelous are your teachings and your wonders. It is through the Holy Ghost that I become filled with your love! These things are all products of obedience to your will. They result from me giving you total and complete access to my heart and my very existence. O LORD, I have had the key all along and have not used it to the capacity for which it was intended. Forgive me, Lord Jesus. I accept you as my Lord and Savior and as my very best friend. I will go forward in your wonderful name declaring to all that will listen that you are calling, begging us to allow you to dissect our souls. Amen!
Father God, do I back down? Do I erase these words that highlight my personal walk with you, LORD? Should I be fearful of those who will say that I am claiming to be better or greater than others? That, dear God, is not what I am saying. Do I abandon what you teach me and reveal to me in order for others to feel better about themselves? My prayer is to you, O God! It is you that I fear and obey. It is you that I love with all of my heart. O LORD God, Dissect My Soul! Help me, LORD, to carry out your mission and fear not the forward looks of the enemy. I stand in the strength and the power of the Holy Ghost.
I pray, Lord, for all those that might read this prayer. I pray, Lord, that they will understand and receive. I ask, Lord Jesus, that you penetrate their understanding and pierce even the lining of the covering that leads to the soul itself. There, there, O God, I pray that you will perform your spiritual surgery to make them…and make me more complete in you. Take us all beyond where we are and help us to know that you and you alone are God. Bind Satan and all the followers of evil so that your people might be free. Let all who read this, Father, be set free to worship you in spirit and in truth! May the Holy Spirit of God be forever praised and worshipped. Amen, Amen and AMEN!

God is LOVE. God knows all things. God is the creator of the universe. All nature and animals were created by God. The heavenlies, the sun, the moon, and even the stars were created by God Almighty! The birds in the air and the beasts that walk this earth had a beginning and were created by God. The fish in the sea were created by My God Almighty. If God created ALL things, and is a pure and Holy God, where did evil come from?
It stands to reason that “something or someone” that God created released evil upon the earth…and it was not God as He was not created and always has been. The bible tells us that Lucifer/Satan/Devil, or any other name you want to use, brought disobedience, also called sin, into the world. God created mankind to love and obey him. Jesus Christ in His love for us has given us a way to return to the love of God and claim our rightful place in the Kingdom of God. He has shown the world that all we have to do is LOVE HIM and HIM Alone. He tells us that He will not only be our Father and God, but that he will be our FRIEND! He only requires us to abandon ourselves to His will and “Abide” in Him. We do not need to have any prior training or knowledge. We just need to gather all that we think we know and come humbly to Him asking that He “Dissect” our souls! This act of absolute surrender will usher in LOVE. This will bring WISDOM who has the very heart of God. God will move heaven and earth for the promotion, protection, and safety of the Holy Ghost, which is WISDOM. Let all who have an ear to hear, hear what thus saith the LORD God Almighty. Surrender today so that you may “Receive ye the Holy Ghost!” Tomorrow is not promised. Amen.
Scriptures for Consecration: (Emphasis added where bold letters appear)
10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you. 11 To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. (1 Peter 5:10-11)
3 And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. 4 He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. 5 But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him. 6 He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked. (1 John 2:3-6)
23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. 24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father’s which sent me. 25 These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you. 26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. (John 14:23-26)
1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. 2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. 3 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. 4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. 5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abidethin me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. 6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. 7 If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. 8 Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples. 9 As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. 10 If ye keep my commandments,ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and abide in his love. 11 These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full. 12 This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you. 13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. 14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you. (John 15:1-14)
1 These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee: 2 As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him. 3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. 4 I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. 5 And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. 6 I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word. 7 Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee. 8 For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me. 9 I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine. 10 And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them. (John 17:1-10)

Dear Heavenly Father, My God, My LORD, My Savior, and My Friend, thank you for this day. Thank you for the opportunity once again to be able to Worship you in Truth and in Spirit. LORD, I know that you are the best thing that has ever happened to me. You are the Friend that I have always desired. I grew up pretty much alone and isolated from the main members of my family. You allowed me to be raised by my grandparents and for that, Almighty God, I am thankful. You knew the course my life would take and even then you were preparing me to become a Messenger of the LORD. You are my FRIEND! O Lord, how excellent is your wisdom. How Holy is your name.
The path through which you have directed me sometimes feels like walking through the “shadow of death,” but even then, protection is provided. How do I explain to the world what I see and hear, Dear Lord God? Why is it difficult for your created souls to believe that all things are spiritual in this world? Does not the Holy Scriptures declare it to be so? Why is there so much doubt? Because of what I see and hear around me, I am confident that being with you, loving you, and remaining in your Presence is the only way to survive. Your revelations of the existence of the things active in our daily lives that stem from the spiritual realm, are forever implanted within my soul. Never let me forget or fall away, Lord Jesus. You have my permission, LORD, to “perfect” your will within my heart every second of the day. It is through you, Almighty God, that I survive day after day. Thank you, Lord!
I pray for those that continue to show me kindness, Lord. I pray for those that believe and follow the teachings that you have provided to me and them. Protect them, Merciful Father, so that they can grow stronger day by day in your perfect grace. I pray, Father God, that all enemies of the LORD will be bound this day and always, so that we can continue to grow as a ministry and as a people that have purposed to love you and only you; A people that is willing to be called by your name and accept you as “Our God.”
Lord, may all visitors to our website become infected with your love. Help them to see that you truly are God and that through you all things are possible that are within your perfect will for their lives. Amen, Amen, and AMEN.

The LORD is GOD. He protects us from all dangers. He often causes us to walk within the darkness of this world to carry out His missions. We must never fear BUT always obey. Pray your way through the scriptures below and see the love that God provides along the way. If you can just believe this scripture alone, amazing visions of the Almighty God can appear. Amen.
1 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. 3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. 4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. 5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. 6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever. (Psalms 23:1-6)
