Romans 12:10 Devotion to Sam

Memory of the sweetness


I woke up this morning with a scripture from Romans 12:10


Be devoted to one another in brotherly love.

Honor one another above yourselves.


I am reminded of the summer time in Russia, when the Lord gave this scripture to strengthen my love for Sam. At that time I became cool in emotion and passion for him due to the lack of dream and unknown future.

Right now, I need that same encouragment because I became cold in my love and passion for Sam. It was because the emotional stress, depression and other factors that contributed to that.

I feel that the Lord wants to ignite the flame of love toward Sam in my heart.


I was reading the material on the Song of Solomon today and this phrase stood out:




Her awakened love places her priority upon Solomon rather than upon herself


Thank you!

hmm

Today, it has been an emotional day. I crired, but Sam tried to comfort the best way he knew how. Also, today was the chapel, the Lord provided a graduation robe and everything with it.

Lord, what shall I do?

Jesus, please, forgive me all my sins, for they are many, so many that there are many people who are concerned.
I need Your help.

If I failed you, Jesus, I know that by Your grace, You are able to restore.
By faith.

In love

In forgiveness

In mercy

In joy

In You alone

need for transformation

Dear Lord,

You have given a truly great day! I woke up in Your joy and purpose. Thanks to all who prayed for me. Received a letter from Ta, that was concerned about our intimacy with Sam before marriage. Indeed, it is not easy.

So, I want and need to go on a fast, maybe even until the end of this month. During this fast, I need to draw to the Word, prayer, and to listen to God's voice. It is so crucial!!!! During this week, I have lots of assignment to turn in. May the Lord help me with that.

Daddy,

it is so good to trust You. Your Son, Jesus Christ, is truly the most loving and comapssioante!!!! Everytime You come in our times of need. THank you for grace, encourament and hope.

I present to you my weak self. May Your mighty spirit take me on a journey of transformation from reproach into vicotry and glory. Things that need to be dealt in the prayer closet, may you reveal and help to get rid of. Things that need to be healed and bind, may your spirit do that. Please, come to my aid. Revive us again: Sam and I unto Yourself.
Amen

Light

Jesus,
I humbly come before You. You are Truth, Light and Love!!!!! Your ways are so awesome. Thank you!!!! Dear Jesus, I love when I happen to read elijahlist and find a confirmation to what You have already been speaking into our hearts. That probably brings you delight too, to know that Your children hear Your lovely voice and want to lsiten to it and understand.

Thank you for the prophetic ears and eyes that You graciously gave Samuel and me. Samueal took me on the journey of John chapters 3 and 1. Then by Your opportunity we led worship at the Prayer Room on campus, where the overall theme of worship was Light. THANK YOU< SWEET SPirit.

I worship You right now. The peace, provision, and Your life coming out upon us. Let Your light shine and draw us nearer to You. We hungry for You. May Your Spirit draw us nearer to Your source of love and wisdom.

Daddy, I love being in Bloomington with Sam. It was so ncie even at the house with Trisha. We were blessed this morning. Thank you for the grace. I am looking forward to talk to Sam and read to him elijahlist.

John 3

Sam came last night. We read John chapters 3 and 1.
I tell you the truth, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again.

I tell you the truth, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit. Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit.

baby dream

It was two days ago (just before my bridal shower) the firs tpart of a dream was taken palce at grandma's house. There were many young girls, indluing my sister. But each of them had to leave. For example, Iana traveled to another country and somebody else too. I really wanted to go with them, but they left without me. So, mamochka was there and I cried really hard. It was very painful feeling. Then, the dream still is at grandma's house. Now we are in the living room and I am holding a baby (I think it was mama's boy). He was so small (a book size). I hold him and he grew attached to me. He felt really good in my arms. He even smiled and when I found out he pooped, my mother and I cleaned him in the bathroom. I gave him to my mother. Lord Jesus, I pray for spiritual ears to be opened in order to clearly hear Your words. What are you trying to communicate about a boy/ baby and what is the connection with my mom and me? daddy, I want to thank You for Your constant loving grace. Your love is so strong adn it keeps me steady even when I am weak. Thank you for Your faithfulness. Today at Wellspring Church, during the communion, I stood on the promises of Your word. In Hosea 2, it says that You betroth me forever in righteousness, justice, compassion and so forth. And in John 10, it says that nothing will take me out from teh Father's hand. I saw this correlation that I am bethrothed to Jesus, and God has a ring on his hand that signifies that commitment. How awesome!!!!! I love you, Lord. Be blessed through my lips and in this life You gave. Honor and praise to You. help me to be annointed fro tomorrow's worship. I want to be led by Your Spirit and use that time to draw us closer to Jesus. Amen

way of the cross and dream of course

Hello dear readers, even it is not only me and Samuel. God, I give You praise in the middle of the night for You. thank you. You asked me what will I choose between all beauty of the world and the cross, which way ? Jesus, Son of God, the most radiant of all, chose the cross which was not beatiful. But the glory of God is revealed through that way. Fast: to give up all the beauty of the world for the CROSS Two weeks before Easter. Had a dream at Elisa: Evangelism class (with Dr. Sebastian) at the mall, public place. Then I see my father wandering around the mall; so I tell people, that is my father. Jael recommends me to go to him, so I did. He was with his wife. I join their companies. We talk about something, it leads to talking to some young Russian high school students about what we learn in America (like English and family Science). After that, I walk outside, father is walking with a girl (age 12), she loves him and looks up to him. We get to his car and there I see a small toy in a shape of a car and it moves and flashes like it controlled; there is an immediate danger of a bomb. Father, instantely sends out his big car to drive away the small one. Then his big car was driven into the parking lot, evening, I perceive a very suspicious man, like a maniac. He is awfully dress up, winter time. He was getting ready to his car, with gloves on and winter coat. But then he was behind my fahter and trying to slay him on the back, but my father had a gun and there was a battle. Several shots were given into an awful man. Finally, father won the battle in the middle over a street, intersection. Oh, I remember that when he was just about to drive his car into the parking lot, I started praying to Jesus and saying outloud too that Jesus is the author of life. Father during that time prayed to allah or a prophet muhamed.

Birth certificate

Birth Certificate Praise the Lord for HIS unfailing goodness. Today the Lord helped to find my birth certificate. It is a necessary document for filing documents after marriage. At first, mamochka and Olegenka looked both in St. Pet and Chel, but nothing there. Then, mama prayed and Iana's encouragement pointing to the St.Pet. The Holy Spirit led her to the drawers. She looked at fist, nothing, but mama trusted the Holy Spirit guidance and then she found it. Praise the LORD Now, our goal is to translate it to English and certified it.

keys

The beginning of the 2011 year, GOD has shown to us KEYS. Literally, Sam and I would see keys everywhere. On elihalist there were so many postings about the keys. Most current is by Theresa Phillips http://www.elijahlist.com/words/display_word.html?ID=9775 Let me look, maybe I will download other links about Keys.

updates and a dream

Thanks be to God!!! Lord has done some miraculous events recently. First of all, an apartment near campus for $285, while all the other places were up to $500. So, I praise God for that. Today we will meet with a landloyer. Secondly, I met a nice girl who has so much in common with me but 10 times better, it seems. I praise God for her. She is a freshman at AU, while I am graduating. It feels like God has led me to see the fruit of my stay at college these years. Thirdly, Olegenka has sold the apartment which is a good thing, now they will be interested in buying 1 bedroom aprt in St.Pet. Fourthly, Samushka has been on a reformation journey. After last week voice lesson, he has changed his style of studying, devoting so much more time to singing. Today is his voice lesson, we are looking forward to hearing from him about that class. Fifth: The Lord opened some friendships with people: Elisa, Christiana. It is so nice to be able to contact and fellowship with them. Sixth: Started searching info about what we need to do after get married. Seventh: Today I had a dream. I saw field surrounded by the fense. I heard the voice of the Lord saying, that in this field one must work perfect. God expects perfect because the ground has been set aside for His purposes; it felt like heaven on earth. In it, I was walking and heard the voice of the Lord again: Before you do any work, stay in My presence." Then I grabbed Bible (brown leather). At work, there was a Bible (brown and leather just like in a dream).

closed heart


At the prayer gathering on Thursday, the Lord spoke to me:

"Katya, you closed your heart from Me."

I asked, "Why did I do that?" He replied, " Because you think I will punish you. But I am Love. I love you."


1 JOHN was read to us that meeting :)



##### God cares about the disengaged hearts ######

Yesterday Mike prophesied over me: Among the greatest intercessors, Change the course of a nation Russia

plans for apartment


God's direction in finding a place to stay for summer in Anderson, IN. Mamochka is plannng to arrive on May 11 till May 31. Sam and I will finish our school by May 7th. So, together we can stay in a two bed room apartment.

Therefore, I can move out with all my stuff in May from the current apartment with Patience N.




Dear God, I thank You for Your ultimate direction and surprises. You know the best for all of us. Thank You for helping us to find the right place and affordable for all of us. :)



I am so at peace about that. Sam found a place for August in Bloomington for $390 (for both of us). That is a good price, considering two people for that amount. Sam paid $400 just for himself.

Lord, if that is the place for us, we calim it in Jesus Name. But if you have a different place in mind, You gladly present our requests before YOU trusting completely for Your direction.

Amen.
