Rivers of living water

Last night (after drinking strong coffee around 9 pm) you can imagine how awake I was!!!! I could not got asleep until 3 30 in the morning. But Sometimes after 11 pm, the Holy Spirit spoke this scripture to my heart. And it got me thinking and searching for understanding.

John 7:37-39
Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, "If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as[a] the Scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from within him." By this he meant the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were later to receive.

You know I always thought that it spoke of the words of the Spirit coming out of the believers, but last night I stepped into an understanding that it could also mean the gifts of the Spirit (that ministers to other people).

But what amazing is that today on Elijahlist.com, there is an article called
"Wisdom and a Fresh Anointing of the Holy Spirit for New Seasons and New Beginnings" by Keith Miller.

He says,
A River of Wisdom is different. When I say a River, I'm talking about the perpetual flow of the Holy Spirit in the area of wisdom. O dear friends, how we need this now. My heart is to see God's precious people living out of the deepest part of the blessing of the Lord...to flow with all that He is in you. As you read this article, ask Him to fill you with all wisdom and understanding, for His ways are higher than our ways, and His thoughts are higher than our thoughts.
The Bible in John 7:37-38 declares that out of your heart or belly will flow rivers of living water! Notice it declares rivers of living water. One of those rivers is the River of Wisdom! Let the River of Wisdom flow!

How cool is that!!!

As I am reflecting on the last dreams that I had- majority of them were filled with running from bad people, killing and hurting others. Especially today, there was a cruel man who killed every one (from child to women). I was hiding in the clean waters of a sea or an ocean. He was looking for me. Then I escaped somehow.

Despite the dreams being so disturbing,

tomorrow I would like to have a communion and use the name of Jesus! It is in HIs name and in the power of His blood that I need protection, covering and refuge.

Beautitudes and mnemonics

August 28, 2009= 24 years old!!!!

I discovered by the grace of God, of course, the wonderful website: www.thepsychfiles.com and based on the learned information, I memorized the Beatitudes using mnemonics.

(Matthew 5:3-10)
Blessed are the poor in spirit,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are those who mourn,
for they will be comforted.
Blessed are the meek,
for they will inherit the earth.
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they will be filled.
Blessed are the merciful,
for they will be shown mercy.
Blessed are the pure in heart,
for they will see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they will be called sons of God.
Blessed are those who are persecuted,
because of righteousness,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

P.S. I used the imagery association beweet spirits flying in heaven, but those who are ont he earth they mourn. But they are comforted by the meek, because meek are the missionaries who inherit the earth. I thought of animals because they hunger and thirst, they are filled by the merciful. Then I pictured the sequence of see and then do. (pure in heart see God and peacemakers). The persecuted are the sect that Orthodox calls Protestants, even though protestants are right.

That's really cool! ENJOY!
Thanks Michael for his great website.

Is God happy about me?

Another thought I had in prayer is that God is joyful and happy about us.

There are so many (including me) who think of God as sad and often angry. But, last night, I glimpsed on the reality that God rejoyces when we do something good, actions that gloriftying Him.

Is God happy?
Is God sad?
Is God angry?
What do you think?

To be One

Last night around 9 pm I went to pray. One moment I heard the Lord, "What is one thing you want me to do for you?" Immediately, I cried out from my inmost being- to be one with Judy's community. I wanted to be one with them because I love each of them. It is ok with me to be humbly among them just like they are. Well, then the Lord pointed out that Jesus asked the same thing in John 17.

Even before that I read from Micah 4:6-7

"I will gather the lame, and assamble the outcast, and her whom I have afflicted.
And I will make the lame a remnant; and the sick, a strong nation..."

John 17:9,12,21, 23.

I have a request to make for them. I make no request for the world, but only for those whom you have given me, for they are yours-...so that they may be one just as we are.

Let them all be one. Just as you, Father, are in union with me and I am with you, let them be in union with us.... so that they may be one just as we are, I in union with them and you with me, so that they may be perfectly united.

Trip to Russia? When?

Dear God,

I come before you this afternoon, saying "THANK YOU" for sending Hellen to talk to me. She spoke of the wisdom concerning the trip to Russia. She advised to wait, get married and after some months, go to Russia with Sam. For me to go after one year is not safe, because there is uncertainty with visa. So, Lord, I do come before You repenting, first of all, that I put it so high like it had to be done the eay I want. Secondly, I say, Lord, be Thy Way and In your Time. May You also give wisdom to Sam that our trip to Russia will be both good and best for both of us.


Katya
P.S. Joyce Meyer spoke on the issue of wanting something that we cannot imagine living without it. It is a lust. God gives freely His blessings and He is the one who opens the doors and the ways for His righteous people.

Orientation

Today was the first day of orientation for the incoming students at Anderson School of Theology. MaryAnn, Xen, Timmy, Nick and I led the worship this morning. I read a scripture from Acts 2: 17-19, 21. I would like to write down some notes I took during President James Edwards's speech.

We begin with the end in mind.

Lord will equip us with the resurrected power.

Choseness- pay the price day after day.

Blessed choseness by commitment.

Are you willing to go? Do you love Jesus?

You must protect choseness.

Consider that what is difficult.

photography

For work assignment I watched two documentary videos.

Here are the quotes I liked:

Photography - a front seat history

Still picture in front of you all the time

I woke this Monday morning and then I hear how the Holy Spirit calls me a virgin. He insturcted me to identify myself with a virgin. It is indeed so surprizing and it would not come to me on my own. I am happy to know that God desires to restore and ffinds a significance in a state of virginity for His purposes.

I also gave/ hid my Bible for one week. it is great, becuase then I will rediscover His word and will read with passion and greater understanding.

That's it for right now.

praise the Lord and lead not on your own understanding,
trust in the Lord at all times. He is reater than our thoughts and ways, He is above all.

Holy Spirit

I woke up this morning with a prayer on my lips:

Annoint me with the Holy Spirit.

Throughout the day I thought about the Holy Spirit. At lunch hour, I said a prayer before the meal and when I uttered the words: Fill me with the Holy Spirit I felt a strong presence of the Lord.

And now as I sit in the library working on the project and listenning to TD. Jakes "Sacred Love Songs", I prayed: Let me think about You, Holy Spirit.

Father, Thank You for Your gift of the Holy Spirit. Help me to be filled and to overflow with His presence. Today Lord, extend Your hand and grant the Presence of the Holy Spirit into my life.

Renew and refresh through the annoing of the Holy Spirit.

Amen

Reflect

I just want to write the things I percieved when Tara prayed for me on Sunday.

Jesus held the jar with oil and He let me drink from it. It was the balm of Gilead, anointing oil.

Then I saw that I used to threw the robe to another person (as if sharing the gospel) but then I threw the robe after their held it. But the Father instructed me to hold their hands, just as He holds mine all the time.

I don't fully remeber but there was the moment when my fingers were given teh poer to do miracles. I was surprized and decided to study it more and believe too. How can miracles be through me? The work of God can !!!!!

Goals to accomplish

Work... Linda talked to me about the need and importance of taking driving license.

Lord, this is the goals I need to accomplish:
driving license
renew my passport and visa.

Love You, Lord.

Healing and Deliverance

Hello,

on Sunday Sam and I went to the Full Gospel Assembly for an evening service.

The preacher spoke on the word of God. The Lord reminded Sam two dreams/visions that he had before. There was also a time of praying where Sam prayed for me and I prayed for the vision and that there would be no evil, bitter root in me.

As we were driving back, Sam shared a powerful message of the vision. He was protecting a girl and thus batteling four demons. One demon stacked him with a knife on a back, but Sam overcomed them all anyway.

We stopped by Phil and Tara. There we had communion. Wonderful time! Shared visions, dreams. I told them about the physical state I was in lately and then we prayed. That night the Lord delivered me from four demons: spirit of abandonment, fear, control and idolatry. It was a battle. Tara kept saying a" Complete Work in Christ". The strongest root was idolatry related to the Koran and the prayers over me with those words. Then there was an outburst of a longing for the word of God.

All for the Word of God!!!!!!!! We stayed talking till the morning hours.

It was a healing.

However, on Monday Sam and I encountered some struggle. I felt like something I was supposed to do was not done and we overstepped our boundaries. WE also had a time of converstaions!!! I shared with him about Son Gun and Nick. He held me like a baby and gave his love in return.

But, the point is that there is a task- to be filled with the word of God and to withstand and overcome any attempt of the enemy to return or bring over spirits.The Goliath is dead!!!!! The root is taking out, the Lord You fill it with Your divine , precisous Word.

Prayer + Vision

Yesterday was a good day. I worked in the library, then helped Xen to water flowers, then Judy called and we went to have free dinner. After that we went to the Mall, prayed a little and Judy received a gift. We met Jamy and Phil there and agreed to meet at my place for prayer.

We started out so dry. Just in obedience and perseverance continued praying. At one moment Jamy and I began praying in toungues and then I saw a vision.

I felt the emotions of a person who looked on a vast desert. There was such desperation, hopelesnes, despair...I knew that the Lord's presence was there but the person whom I felt did not know that. Then in tears I continued pray in tongues. I shared that with people.

Then there was a continuation.

I saw from above a procession of people through the desert. There were dressed in white and glorious clothes; that immediately got me thinking their clothes are not for the desert. They had joy and in unity they walked through that desert. That person whom I felt at first was surprised and had lots of questions. The people who walked : in front I saw a woman dressed in white dress. I shared that vision with people.

We read Isaiah 35 and Isaiah 40.

Prayer Walk and International Prayer

Dear Heavenly Lord, How Awesome and Amazing You are.

Today we did a prayer walk in Jakson Park (a Black community). There we prayed for young boys (10 and 11 years old), saw a sign of a T-shirt that represented Holy Spirit, Hands in Prayer and the Chains/ Shakels loosed from them. The whole trip was wonderful; Jamy visited his dad and other friends; I spent time with Klayton (Karen's boy), etc. As soon as we came back, Moreblessing and I met for prayer. It was our first prayer on Thursday at 8 pm. It was so great: His presence was there!!!! We cried, thanked Him, repented, read the Word about giving even in our extreme poverty (2 Corinthians 8 and Mark 12: 41). Glory to God for His wonderful works.

Lord, I Long to see more of You and dwell and move with Your Spirit. May Your word fill us richly. Bring all of us together in love and in persistancy for Your gospel.

Love You, Lord Jesus, Father and the Holy Spirit

Dear Lord, Most High!
Let me exalt Your Holy Name and Worship You! Thank You so mcuh that You rebuked and discipline Sam and me. We have sinned against You , O Lord, with the evil seed of sexual immorality. Now, I repent and search for the Fear of the Lord. You Alone were able to impart the truth and the fear of the Lor din our hearts. Let me give You thanks for that! Your discipline always brings joy and holiness afterwards, even though we mourn and grieve in the process.

Father, have mercy to us and help us to accomplish Your purposes, in Jesus Name.
Father, rebuke the poverty mentality and shortcomings in our lives, help us to live in You and with You totally in faith and trust, love and surrender.

I pray blessings on Your people. May they share Your holiness and glory as they live each new day. Father, gather us together as Your Bride. Be glorified.

Arrange this afternoon and evening so that my heart will draw near to You and You come near to me. I pray this in Your name,

Amen.

Hello Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

I greet you with the Joyful and Mighty name of Jesus!

Yesterday, Sam and I cleaned the apartment and in the evening invited Xen to pray. The Lord spoke to Sam that the living room was meant for God's purposes and not his. Therefore, that living room was for the prayer and the fellowship with Christians.

We read 2 Chronicles 6 and 7.

Today, in the morning, we invited Xen again for the breakfast. After that, both of us took and hour nap. Sam had a dream within a dream. Two boys: singing and fishing/stones. Sam came to that and asked, "What are you doing?" they replied, "having fun." Then Sam asked for the piece and paper to write the word. Then he woke up in the dream and shared the word with friends around the table. He held the book with his things in there. The words were: "About creations, fields, clay... I will make you a disciple of many nations. I will take you to the f.... land (an adjective that portrays poverty and hunger). " It was awesome. Then Sam returned to his dream and saw those two boys. They told him that they remembered him. Then Sam sand a tune to the African- American boy, and that fellow replied, "Wow. You can sing! And I see RED in you." Sam knew exactly what "red" meant: Jesus' sacrifice.

For me personally,

I am studying and meditating about sacrifice and love. God has been so powerful and mighty before my very eyes. His presence is very strong. For example, we were going to the Pay Less yesterday (July 29, 2009). sam put a worship CD, and I prayed inside. I felt that Jesus was in me and looking to the streets. The scripture, "It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God who loved me and gave himself for me." galatians 2:20. The Lord's presence filled the car, that Sam was shaking and shouting, I was in tears. Then, I felt a gentle thought: that Jesus desires to bring His presence to all nations. I knew that moment that as we go in the store, Jesus will walk among us and do His miracles.

I told Sam that he needs to take care of food and I will walk and pray. Mostly, my prayers were in tongues. I also helped Sam to choose the products. And standing in the line, Sam asked me to return the cart. I told him, "I will meet you on the other side. We will meet on the other side. Then I spoke louder: Jesus and disciples." The person standing behind us was surprised. Then coming to the pay area on the other side, Sam and I became very silly like children. The lady said, "You are having too much fun." Well, I told her, "You can join." She smiled and joined the game of throwing the ball. people were gathered at that place and everybody was smiling and rejoycing. The Lord has done great things.

Praise His holy name.

Пост

Hello dear borthers and sisters,

Yesterday I was rebuked by th eman of God right from the stage. THe voice of the Lord spoke, "I know that there is a person who sang, worshipped, danced, even shed tears. But after today, they will go and be intimate with somebodyt they are not married." I knew it was me! Of course, I need to chagng it, so I declared the fast.

The next day, there was an afternoon time when I had a craving for sexual intimacy. It was difficult.

But I continued to fast because I know that fasting reveals what is hidded sin inside of us.
Praise God for this supernatural grace of fasting and His power of the Spirit.

• Secondly, in my study on the fasting, I prayed to God, "Lord, I always used only one item when fasted according to Isaiah 58, but Lord I pray that all the items will be fullfilled through this fast. In faith, He responded to me through Mike Bickle who said, that "WE ourselves actually determine some of the measure of spiritual blessing He will give us, as well as some of the measure of our greatness in the age to come. Believing for too small a measure will lead to just that.
  What will we claim as our inheritance? Mark 4:24 Consider carefully what you hear. With the measure you use, it will be measured to you- and even more. WHoever has will be given more; whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken from him."

Now I stand on this promise that every item from Isaiah 58, will be fullfileed through this fast.

1)to loosen the bonds of wickedness

2) undo heavy burdens in the lives of others

3) set oppressed free as we minister by the anointing of the Spirit

4) break every yoke of the religious spirit

5) give bread to the hungry and provide the poor with housing

6)revelation of God's word

7) emotional and physical health to speedily spring forth

8) righteousness breaks forth in the places we struggle

9) cause the glory and power of the Lord to operate in our ministries.

elderly in China

China:

I just read an article " Gone, And Forgotten" about an elederly woman who died in her apartment and was found later by a plummer. It made me to think that caring for the elderly is crucial. If I were to be in China, we need to help the elderly generation there, makin gsure they are cared, recognized, supported and not lonely.

Turn of events for the future

Praise the Lord,

My body feels week and exhausted, yet I do not loose hope knwoing that God is good and faithful. We will seek the Lord and He will be near us comforting His divine presence. For the last several days there have been grandiouse changes and movement. There is a feelign that the Lord opened a way to the future.

Sam had two dreams yesterday. The first one was at the dirty dusty subway of a big city. There were four levels and Sam could see lots of drug addicts, homeless and so forth. He told them, "You cannot stay here any more. I bought this place! But if you wait one month, you can come back and it will be fixed and you will live with me.

The second dream was surrounded by five demons. They were shouting angry words and looked awful. Sam battled them. One of them stubbed Sam on a back, the tool stuck in the back. But Sam continued to fight. THey asked him, "Who Are You?" Sudenly, Sam spurred the word like a roar of lion. It was angelical name, "Melchizedek." They told him, "You are not a human, you are a spirit." Sam woke rejuvenied.


Papa Phil had a dream about Sam too. He saw Sam blue and then Micke Bickle was dead. Tara explained it like this: Until you die to your flesh, then you will be able to have Davidic call and ministry. The very day they told us that, we drove around in the car worshipping and rejoicing in God. Sam and I stayed late looking at the stars an dafter which he had those two dreams.

Lord, as about me and us... Help us to know You Jesus and in Your name do what you want us to do.

На ристалище бегут все

Доброе утро товарищи и друзья,

Господь дал классный сон.

Группа людей находились на поле и старались поставить контейнеры с водой на землю. Часто из-за горок в земле нам приходилась искать более устойчивое основание. Затем мы все отправились куда-то. Мой мальчик (boyfriend) быстро побежал вперед и уже шел вме те с тетенькой. Оказалось, что все шли впереди меня. И вот я решила бежать. Моя обувь была большого размера и я не пробежала впереди их, они меня заметили и вдруг одна обувь слетела. Я увидела, что люди не ждут, они продолжают идти и некому поднять моя обувь. Итак мне приходится быть позади всех и подобрать обувь. Когда я была в конце, то я обратила внимание, что две подружки свернули с той дорогт, по который мы все шли . Они бежали со своей собакой. Мне было больно, что люди, та толпа людей не ждали и их. Итак я пщдщбрала свою светло -белую и желтоватую обувь, как вдруг увиделя знакомую девочку. Она мне сказала, что Бог ей откыл о том, что она будет проповедывать. Мы порадавались и я начала снова бежать. Так как обувь все еше была большого размера, я рештила их снять и бежать в носках, потому что надо было бежать и бежала я вперед.

СИЕ ЖЕ ДЕЛАЮ ДЛЯ ЕВАНГЕЛИЯ, ЧТОБЫ БЫТЬ СОУЧАСТНИКОМ ЕГО.
НЕ ЗНАЕТЕ ЛИ, ЧТО БЕГУШИЕ НА РИСТАЛИЩЕ БЕГУТ ВСЕ, НО ОДИН ПОЛУЧАЕТ НАГРАДУ? ТАК БЕГИТЕ, ЧТОБЫ ПОЛУЧИТЬ.
ВСЕ ПОДВИЖНИКИ ВОЗДЕРЖИВАЮТСЯ ОТ ВСЕГО: ТЕ ДЛЯ ПОЛУЧЕНИЯ ВЕНЦА ТЛЕННОГО, А МЫ- НЕТЛЕННОГО.
И ПОТОМУ Я БЕГУ НЕ ТАК, КАК НА НЕВЕРНОЕ, БЬЮСЬ НЕ ТАК, ЧТОБЫ ТОЛЬКО БИТЬ ВОЗДУХ, НО УСМИРЯЮ И ПОРАБОЩАЮ ТЕЛО МОЕ, ДАБЫ, ПРОПОВЕДУЯ ДРУГИМ, САМОМУ НЕ ОСТАТЬСЯ НЕДОСТОЙНЫМ.

1 КОРИНФЯНАМ 9:23-27


И ОБУВ НОГИ В ГОТОВНОСТЬ БЛАГОВЕСТВОВАТЬ МИР. ЕФЕСЯНАМ 6:15

Amazing Day

Amazing Day it was!!!! Now, let me tell you that both my mom, my dad Oleg and myself had the most difficult day in a long time. Everything went either wrong or gave us a lot of discouragement. Then you wonder, why did I call this day AMAZING!

In the evening when I came to Judy, the prayer was already at all its might and came to the end. Then Judy asked if I need a prayer just as everybody got th eprayer ( except KAren). I said "Yes." I told them it was a difficult day and Gina gave a hug and I remained siting with her. Then the conversation was moving from one direction to another, so I was vulnerable if they will ever pray for me. The lady was faithful and persistent, She was the one who prayed.


Now, I told you all about the day and people, now is the amaZING PART- His Voice.
He assured and encouraged me that I love Him. He wants me to send to all nations to share the Gospel. Blessed are the feet who bring goood news." It is all that I already knew and received from Him, that is why I cried adn listen to His voice.

How exciting to know that Jesus and I and others will be travelling in other nations and share teh Gospel. God knows how I do not like missionaries, but He is making me one. How funny!
But it is all about love and faith in Jesus.

Please, keep me in Your dear prayers, that everymoring God will give me passion and enthusiasm to declare and share teh Gospel. AMen

Notes about Korea and Balance

I dreamed of Jenny and John ( my Korean friends). Even though the dream did not look significant neither do I remember it all, but what surprized me was Elijahlist posted a prophecy today about Korea. It says that North and South will join and become united.

Lord, I know that this was the prayer of another Korean friend of mine for many years. I pray that in Your timing and in Your will two countries become one. May Communism fall and Christianity come to the surface.

Another interesting moment. I was reading Ecclesiastes and there was one verse translated in NIV as "The man who fears God will avoid all extremes." (7:18). It seems like the author speaks of balance. In addition, the prophecy on Elijahlist encourages that "in everything there must be balance." It is true that in Christianity we think of total surrender, total abandonment, total love, etc. We hardly hear about balance. What does it mean for a bleiver to be in balance. The artice talked about the balance between Heaven and Earth touching each other. Balance!!!

at the church

1. Yesterday Judy invited to the Allethia church to hear a speaker.

He prayed and spoke this phrase to me:

You will get what you want. You will get what you want. Do you want evil or God? God? Then you will get.

This word still surprises me and I hold unto this word and meditate.

Hate what is evil and cling to what is good- Romans 12:9

1. Also, there was a wonderful worship at the church. Diane has blessed me so much through her singing and praising God. We prayed together!

During the worship I looked at Rhonda in front of me, she was worshipping God with all her strength and might. Then I heard this words: Didn't I heal the handicapped and they worshiped Me? I found in the scriptures that after the healing that Jesus perfomed, people praised outload. They praised and worshiped God!!!! That is a good lesson- to praise and give thanks for what He does in our lives.

Believe

This is something for my memo:
As I was feeling anxious because of not hearing from Sam. I prayed to God and also texted to Sam. Then, I felt the Holy Spirit poured or downloaded this phrase into me- believe beyond the natural. So, with joy I put a picture of us on my cellphone and he texted me back. Our conversation brought peace, love and assurance to both parties. It was totally amazing.

I was reminded in that moment of Abraham who believed God and did not waver at the promise. Read Romans 4.

So, God I praise You today for Your help and assurance. Thank You for the Spirit that is with us teaching and guiding. May Your truth be our shield and protection.

Love

The Lord has blessed me this evening tremendous way!!!! I was on my way to type something about faith, when I met a person!!! She called me "you after my heart". We met on a pedestrian bridge...I was trying to take a picture of a sunset and she approached me. In a minute she shared her pictures of sky. Then we carried on the conversation about trees, stones of hearts, funny moments etc. We exchanged emails and good words to each other. It was like an angelic visitation; love, joy, peace. How great!!!!!!!!!!

I Love prayers

father has been so good to me.

Even when I woke up, there was grace to pray and seek His face. The time at work were so happy and energized, praised the Lord.

Father, thank you so much! But remember I still need our team efforts to keep praying and seeking your face.

LOVE YOU.

Transform my prayer life

Father, You Heard my cry to transform the prayer life. I already see that You started the actions. Now I am coming to You for the grace to see it through faithfully. My goal is to pray by the pattern We created for the two weaks. Then after achieving that, I pray that you will increase it and strengthen it so that I could do it for two years. Lord, there is nothing impossible to you. It will be great that after doing that in the secret that You would bring others along to do it together inorder to be more effective.

Blessings,

yours Katya

In the Tent

Last night we have experienced something amazing. Well, let me tell you that both of us fell into passion which afterwards led ut to an honest conversation. I listened to his story of life growth. Then I prayed and the presence of God was so near and strong. My right arm was shaking and tears rolling from our eyes.

He also prayed for me too that fear will no longer have place. It used to grasp my mouth to speak the words of God. Thanks to the power of God and His greatness.

Now, we are in the library in Dover, Ohio. He is doing crosswords and I read Sergey Shidlovskiy.

Lord, I pray that Your Holy Spirit guide us today. Help us to be alive in You and be creative in the spirit. Help us to crucify and nulify the desires of flesh, so that we could live freely in Your presence.

Blessings to Your Holy Name.

AT Ohio

It has been two weeks at Ohio with Sam. We have travelled to his father's house and to his mother LaJoya. I am amazed at the talents and the memories these people share. They welcomed me with love, accepatance, hospitality.

We visited mane places of historical value. We have learned a lot of great facts about their lives.

Iam happy for the trip.

Today, I found myself longing to be loived by my own family. So, I wait till we talk on the phone.

One of the greatest experiences were to meet two ladies; Jane and Nancy. And Alsi a family at the camp. I just loved to hear their testimonies about God.


Lord, I pray that You will open my heart and fill me with your word.

Renew and create an atmopstphere of worship and adoration for you.

Thank you for love and what you haev done on our behalf.

Blessings.

Nations

Let me briefly write down that the Lord is concern for all the nations!!!!!

He sees that soem Christian leaders emphasize certain countries but reject the others (it could be only one). As He was putting in my heart the call to "love your enemies", He encouraged to love all the nations!

I tried to justify why some leaders do not love certain countries. I said, "maybe because they do bad." But He said, "Didn't I say 'love your enemies'?.

Then He reminded me a dream that I had long time ago, the Earth that I saw meant that He will take around the world to the nations. And He wants me to love them all, to pray for their good.


He made me think. If we would love our neighbors, other nations..., we would act differently when we would hear their bad news. We would be compelled to act on their behalf.

So, it is still a smal fresh revelation that I am going to wait upon.


by the way, before this revelation came, I just spent time worshipping the Lord. I knew something big was going to happen, but I continued to worship. And He spoek in a still voice, that tears or repetance and plead were in my eyes. Since that evening He wakes me up early in the morning, like 3 something am.

Father, let me hear what You want to say and let me not judge ahead of time. Let Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Let Your love fills us all!!!!

dreams

I had a dream today that even while I was sleeping, I tried to tell it somebody else...

It was my father's parents house. A girl adn I went into a kitchen (place of fellowship) but young people sitting at the table ignored and looked down on the girl with me. She stepped outside the kitchen crying and I folloowed her to comfort. I said, "I am sorry." Then we went into a living room (main room) and I offered a prayer. At first I prayed in tounges probably, but then I said: "In the name of Jesus come out, leave!" Suddenly, the quit cat became vicious and ran wild around the room. I kept praying in the name of Jesus, knwoing that I am dealing with demonic. The girl sat next to me, all the attention was on the cat and finally it ran outside the room. Cat can represent unclean spirit, danger lying in wait, crafty, witchcraft) I tend to think that it was unclean spirit of witchcraft connected to the emotional rejection.

The problem with that girl was not accepting her into the fellowship.


Context: Yesterday I met Samuel's father. We spent some time together in fellowship, but still I was so cautios and unaccepting him totally. Father, forgive me. Maybe I was sensing some demonic activities that affecting me and him. The thing that got my attention was in his car there was a thing hanging from the mirror. It was exactly what we threw away from Shawn's apartment; it is an occulting thing (something with dream catcher). He said that he is spiritual but does not go to church. He gre up in the church and sang in a group at the churches. Lord, please, remove the sting of whatever pain connected to his experience with the church. Release forgiveness and fellowhsip. Bless him abundantly! Shower him with deliverance and Your presence. As a fact, there were certain small activites that would be hinder our activites: CD not recording that was made aspecially for Sam's dad; my lamp light broke when they visited the room; I spilled the food on the floor; etc. I bind the hindering spirits, and I plead the blood of Jesus and His pretection over us. Please, be merciful to us and cover us with Your wings, so we could be in Your shelter.


The continuation of the dream. I was in the bus (large group ministry) and Judy was there (prayer warrior who ministers to people) and a lot of "marginalized people." Well, I usually love them unconditionally but in that dream, I prayed for one guy and understood the problem was pornography, so I said: "In the name of Jesus, I command you to leave." He stood up in obedience, and I surprized that he obeyed instantly said, "Yes, I command you to leave!" Then he and all the rest just went outside the bus. The only problem was I saw Shawn among them and I did not want her to leave. She looked at me the last.

Lord, whatever I am dealing with, please be with me and guide in Your Spirit. Protect from demonic influences and set them free as well.

An Art Evening

I spent few hours with a friend Danny. She is such an optimistic and energetic person!!!! We sold some of our clothes at Plaza. I asked her a lot of questions, since she is getting married this summer. After the visit, I was inspired to draw (By the way, an art evening was during my work time :))

Daniel F. Gerhartz has been my inspiration today. His drawings are so feminine and genlte; He reflects the Lord's beauty and glory.

Here are some of his wonderful works:

Memorize God's word

On May 1, 2009 the Spirit of the Lord spoke to me...

For every memorized scripture,

I will give extra blessing.

For every written word

that you put in your heart,

I will give abundance.

Every word that will come into your heart

will bring harvest- abundance and blessing.

Child, the planted word produces crop, harvest.

Thank you for the summer job

Father in Heaven, thank you so much for the favor with work. This morning Hellen asked me in the library: "Have you found a job?" I told her my concerns and difficulty in finding a job. But as soon as I returned to the computer lab, I saw an email from Jackie. She asked me if I am interested to work for her during the summer. The funny thing I told Hellen was that I am going to miss working in the library. So, it is indeed a great blessing that jackie asked to work for her. She said that for the month of May I can work 40 hours, but fro the months of June to August 20 hours a week.


Thank You Heavenly Father for Your divine favor.

I bless Your name.

Pour out Your blessings on Samushka and grant Him Your favor today.

Blessings upon Hellen for her concern and care about me. May this summer will be a rich blessing.

You are great! Great are Your testimonies!!!!!!

Daddy

Praise the Lord and thanks for all His benefits and blessings.

I am thankful that the Lord is on the Throne and that He has the power to deliver His people from the enemy and the effect of sin.

Father, glorious and mighty, pour Your creative power in Jenny. Restore to her the intimate fellowship with You. Please, help her to submit to Your will and give all her desires on the Cross to be cruicified.

Father, I ask you to find a place for John to stay. Send your wind of favor and blessings.

Daddy, please be kind and merciful to Samushka. Help him to lay down his worries and concern about the car. Father, let Your goodness follow Sam all the day long. Please, provide a safe travel to his relatives and give them a wonderful time together. Father, find a way for us to travel to Ohio. Prepare the way in Jesus Name.

Lord, i bind myself to Your will and thank you for the life in the Holy Spirit.

I love you Daddy,

help me to be an encourager, a teacher and anything you want to live in love and in Your word.

Give me ears to hear Your voice and please let Your sweet presence come to me tonight. I long for Your word and Your wisdom. Dwell in me through faith in Christ Jesus.

Song of Song

My lover spoke and said to me,

"Arise, my darling,

my beautiful one, and come with me.

See! The winter is past;

the rains are over and gone.

Flowers appear on the earth;

the season of singing has come,

the cooing of doves

is heard in our land.

The fig tree forms its early fruit;

the blossoming vines spread their

fragrance.

Arise, come, my darling;

my beautiful one, come with me."

Song of Songs 2:10-13

May- belongs to Sam and his family

This month May I am dedicating to celebrate our relationship with Samuel L.Green and to develop great love for his whole family.

Father, in the name of JESUS, I ask Your grace and anointing to meet this need. May this season bring You greater glory than I ever thought. May You pour out Your capacity to love into our lives, because You said, "By this they will know that you are My disciples if you love one another."

Father, thank You for the family that raised Samushka. I am so thankful to know him and live in love and friendship. It has been truly Your best gift to me.

I LOVE YOU,

Katerinka

Great news:

Samushka gave me a gift: plant of pink roses.

He said yesterday: "Do you know that you are missing in your apartment?" I said: "My roommate?" Then he pulls to the store SVC and points to the flowers outside. He let me choose the one I liked. I adored those flowers for a long time and still do, because that day I dreamed of Sam giving me a rose and sharing his plans... (which by the way he mentioned).

I love his family as my own

Lord, give me love toward every member of Samuel's family. This month I will meet them and spend time together. Father, create in me a heart of love, compassion that no barriors will be left but only bridges of love and support. You are the one who sets the lonely and fatherless in the families, that is why I know that You, Lord, value family relationships. I pray that Your will be done and that I will love each of them as much (or even more) as my own family. I want that Sam would know that his family matters to me.

It may be a good idea to ask questions to seek positive answers from Sam related to his family. For example, what do you most love about your dad? etc.

I am thankful for Samushka. He is so gentle, caring, patient and so much more.

Lord, will You cover him with Your feathers and protect him in all the ways. May Your will be done in his life that will glorify Your name.

Father, as I was reading a book for my exam, this thought came to my mind. There are many movies today, but it will be great if I learn to choose to watch those that promote family values, sexual purity, sacrifice and other good qualities. Help me to stay away from those movies that portray affairs, sexual immorality, lies, violence, etc.

Every activity brings a result.

Father, Thank You So much for blessings in Christ, for time spent helping others and doing the things we are suppossed to do. Thank You for Your perfect time.

Glory and honor to the One who sits on the Throne, King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

FLOWERS

This is my second dream about flowers. The first one was a bouquet of yellow flowers, today in my dream Sam gave me one red rose. He spoke of a wedding plan that he made.

I am trying to hear what the Lord is communicating to me about the flowers.

Flowers are reproductive organs of a plant. Flower plants excel at being fruitful and multiplying. According to Perry Stone, dreams about flowers represent new beginning. But I also think it speaks of harvest, crops.

Last night I had an amazing time in the Lord's presence. He spoke about the great outcomes whenever I put His written word in my heart. He encouraged me in the process of memorization of His scriptures. Secondly, He started out to point about revival through forgiveness. He desires for us, people, to forgive one another as the Lord forgave us (Colossians 3:13, Psalm 130:4).

Shawn called and asked to bless the house. When I came to her, I was introduced to Garry, her neighbour. Praise God, we prayed together and he showed his interest in attending church. Praying and blessing the house went well, Shawn got rid of a statute of a man looked like Jesus. But she said, "Demons told me to buy this one." I prayed over it (feeling sudden cold over me), and looked on the back of a figure was the name of a saint. It was not Jesus! In addition, I said, "We have the Living Christ."

Then I asked her about the frogs. She told me that it stands for "Fully Rely on God" and that is ok. I was still unsettled about it and spent some time on computer afterward to figure out.


There was a negative feeling and emotion in me toward Sam. No particular heavy reason, just dissatisfaction of unfulfilled needs. Helled suggested to reply on the text message no matter what. Sam then texted back (after a long while) that he is a little stressed about a lot of work to be done and would like to spend some time later. Even though I have a class this evening, I am thankful that he wanted to spend some time together.

So, as I could see those little things that try to steal my joy our not worth. It is better to pray and not fret about anything.

Heavenly Father, in the name of Jesus, I ask You to help Sam in his projects. You alone can give him briliant thoughts and strength to complete all assignments. I believe that You will supoort and help him. Father, continue to nourish Shawn's faith. Keep me in line with Your will, I pray.

Blessings and honor to You, God the Father, Son and the Holy SPirit.

Dreams

I think God's revelation in coming... I had a dream one day ago with three significant imageries.

The context for the dream was some sexual perversion (through videos, magazines and a man). However, the desire/ lust for those things dimished greatly.

But what I found significant is that I was given bright yellow flowers. They were exactly what I wanted. SInce the flowers were given by a lady, her husband wanted to give me tools. I did not undertand why I needed those tools, so I did not take them. But there were two of them (big and small) as to work in the garden or for the harvest.

Finally, I was travelling in the air on a certain machine. The ground of that city was filled with trash, yet all our attention was given to the high buildings. The man jumped out of the vehicle and said, "Whenever you see the building with number 7, push "Stop"". I was given a controller with a button "Stop." I was looking desperately in a new environment the building with number seven. There were so many numbers and I felt confuzed, so I stopped. Then I saw a lday adn she spoke to me in Russian. I asked her about the building with number 7, she gave me direction and suggestion not to go there (kind of far and difficult). So, we did not go.

What concern me in this dream that I did not take the tools and we did not go to that house with number 7.
maybe it shows that the time is near but not has fully come.

Lord, I pray for Your wisdom and discernment to step into the new and the harvest. Let me eat, drink and do it all for the praise and worship of You. I also ask You to remove any false ground of sexual immorality from my life and thsoe around me. Saturate me in Your holiness.


Today's dream is not that significant to me but I found it interesting that Sam spoke to me these words,"You will work in the firm and be a light." He asked me that question, " So What is your goal in life?" I knew that there is no particular answer in me, so that is when he said that about being a light in a firm. Then I saw us many years pass, he came on a red car to pick me up from job and kissed. I had curly hair and he was skinny...

So, that's it for right now.
Let' s wait until the Lord reveals His will in more details.

Praise be to God ALmighty for His strength and power.

Last night I read "But those who harvest it will eat it and praise the Lord, and those who gather the grapes will drink it in the courts of My sanctuary." Isaiah 62:9

I slept very well and this morning I am singing and rejoicing for My Lord has given favor.

Praise to GOD in the sanctuary and in my life.


Father, Send Your grace and favor to give love to hurting people. Shower them with graces from ABOVE. You are Everlasting God with Unfailing LOVE.

Lord, I am ready to step into the new You have for me. Let Your will guide and your good Spirit lead on level ground. Praises to You, Jesus!

In the blood of my Savior I found peace and redemption,
He has granted forgiveness and acceptance with freedom,
promising Spirit has filled me ....

Just prayer when I am thirsty

It is evening, the day went so fast.

I feel like a person who is searching for the pearl or a treasure. All that there is seems so dim compared to the hidden yet close work and the presence of the Holy Spirit. I know that this dry moment will not last long but that JEsus promised to give His water to anyone who thrist.

Samuel cannot satisfy that hunger. Food will never satisfy that thirst. Idleness wil never satisfy. SO, I say, "Come Holy Spirit, or I perish without You. Let me taste the joy of Your presence. Let me stay in Your wings and abide in Your shadow. Holy Spirit, introduce me to the work of Christ. Can You tell me that you love me. I need to hear the words of affirmation from the Father's throne. Lord, my prayers are so shallow, but teach me to do You will, for You are my God. Infuse in my inner being the joy and the power of You. You are!!!! You are is what i missing and longing for. You are and no one else can fill me with love like You do. You are my hope, joy and true life.

Thank YOu, Jesus, For the Cross and the Blood. Thank You for your obedience to the will of Your father. Thank You for Your truth.


Jesus, come into my heart and renew a steadfast spirit within me.
POur out the rain of Your SPirit.
Qunech the thirst with streams of living water.
Do not look for my mistakes or sins, have mercy and love on the one YOu created.

Father, in all these things and words, Glory be to You. May Your kingdom come adn Your son be glorified on earth as HE is in heaven.
Lublu Tebya Naveki.

Katya

I am reminded today of the word the Holy Spirit taught me. It was a question, "Do you wanna be used by God or have authority and honor from men?" He explained that Jesus submitted to the will of God. The authority did not approve him, yet Jesus did the will of God.

Matthew26:39, 42

• My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. yet not as I will, but as You will.
• My Father, if it not possible for this cup to be taken away unless I drink it, may Your will be done.

Then I read in Matthew that the chief priest, the elders of the people and the high priest were the one who stood against Jesus Christ. Those who were in authority and had honor from people, could not give that authority and honor to Jesus Christ. "Early in the morning, all the chief priests and the elders of the people came to the decision to put Jesus to death. They bound him, led him away and handed him over to Pilate, the governor." Matthew 27:1-2.

Jesus was accused by the chief priests and the elders.

Heavenly Father, I have been praying to You to submit my will to Yours. SInce I have prayed that, I am expecting that there is not going to be authority and honor from men to me. Therefore, I ask you, according to Ephesians 3:16: I pray that out of His glorious riches He may strengthen me with power through His Spirit in my inner being.

Lord, it is a wonderful season, THANK YOU!!!!!

I am in that mindset of fasting. What I mean is that during these 7 or even 10 days, God is going to do something awesome with me.

He let me pray the prayers of surrender; exchanging my will to His will.

He continues to pour out grace to memorize the scriptures. Such as Hebrew 11:6 "ANd without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him." Psalm 143:10 "Teach me to do your will; fo rYou are my God; may Your good Spirit lead me on level ground." 1 Corinthians 2:4-5 "My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the SPirit's power, so that your faith might not rest on men's wisdom, but on GOd's power."

Lord, would You teach Your servant to pray Your will, to will and act in accordance to Your pleasure. Lord, display Your power of the Holy Spirit in my life and through me to this city adn to Your people. Jesus, cover with Your redeeming love and blood and stick closer to me than a brother. I love You,

I wait expectanly for You and Your mighty power.

Come, Holy Spirit,
My body and my soul clings to You.

Love,

Katya

Prayer for an alcoholic

The Book: Breaking the Power

"I prayed for twenty years that an alcoholic friend would lose his taste for alcohol after decades of drinking. Nothing happened. Then I began to pray binding and loosing prayers fr him, and within a few weeks, this man declared that alcohol didn't taste good anymore.

I then realized that for twenty years I had prayed against a syndrome- the taste for alcohol. Nothing "happened" until I began binding this man's will to God's will and loosing the strongholds protecting the source or reasn that he drank- then God delivered him.

Breaking the Power by Liberty Savard

Chapther: So Where Do You Begin?

One of the first things God taught me was to bind my will to His will. When I questioned Him as to whether I could really bind my unruly, rascally, rebellious, "free" will to His will, I recieved the impression of these words: "Like it had magnets!" Binding my will to God's will produced an incredible steadiness in my spiritual walk. Suddenly, I had a sense of balance, a stability in my steps that I had never had.

Then He said to bind my mind to the mind of Christ. "

Then He told me to bind myself to an awareness of the blood of Jesus Christ because I often forgot what the power of His blood had done for me.

Then He had me bind my feet to the paths He had always ordained for me to walk.

He told me to bind my hands to the work He had always meant for me to do in order to prosper His will in the Kingdom, and I did.

He said to bind myself to the work of the Cross, because that was where the power, the authority, th elove, the forgiveness, the mercy, and the grace would flow into my life.

Thanks be to God!

I am happy to pronounce that the Lord is good. He did great works by His mercy and love.
I shared with you here about my misconduct and the prayer to trust God in the matter of work.

The Lord arranged things the most wornderful way! Linda smiled to me today, touched me and everything was fine!

Only the Lord could something like that. I give Him praise.


My prayer, Lord, help me to continue with the fast. Help me not to give up to pursue You this seven days. Put Your Holy Spirit's will and guidance in all that I do.
Let everything be done in the name of Jesus.

Thank you for Judy and the way we talked today. Thank you for Lisa Pay who invited me for lunch and fellowship in May or June.

Thank You, Father, for Sam. Please, nurture him and guide him by Your Spirit. Teach him through Your word and use him for Your purposes.

Thank You, Lord, for friendship with Hellen. For the spritual discernment that you gave her and the discipline that she lives in.

Thank You for Shawn and the rewards You are going to bless her with, because she belives in You and seeks You earnestly.

Thank You for the ability to memorize scriptures. Let it always serve for good purposes. Use us for Your Kingdom, dear Father.


With love

Titus 2:11-12

Thanks be to God for His Word that brings to light my issues and sins. I rather choose to be corrected by the Lord than to dwell in the land of wickedness. Right now, I have not been successful in saying "no" to ungodliness and especially worldly lusts. Sam and I have been engaged in improper conduct. It is worldly lusts that try to entangle us.

Today, I have been late to work for the whole 15 minutes. The problem is that I have failed a lot of times before and Linda was upset with me. So, I do not know what is going to happen with my work, but I will continue to trust and learn through all trials.

Father, in the name of Jesus, Your Beloved Son,
help me to renounce and deny to wordly lusts.
Teach me to say 'no" and help to get victory by Your grace.

Use this day to make me clean and set apart.

Thank You so much.

"For the grace of God- His unmerited favor and blessing-has come forward (appeared_ for the deliverance from sin and the eternal salvation for all mankind. It has trained us to reject and renounce all ungodliness (irreligion) and wordly (passionate) desires, to live discreet (temperate, self-controlled), upright, devout (spiritually0whole) lives in this present world..."

I am writing this because I desire to see a change and greater works of the Holy Spirit in personal life and the lives of those around.

Father, in the Name of Jesus, your Holy Son, I come to You to seek guidance and favor in time of need. Father, Daddy, I want to repent in my heart before Your thorne for the stealing. Stealing is much more than just taking an object that belongs to another, it may involve taking away somthing that belongs to other such as sexual privacy. Father, I repent before you for the committed act between myself and Sam. I repent on my part fro the stealing of th eprecious heritage that you had placed inside of him. Father, I ask you to remove the stealing effect from his life, but rather bless him in Your ways. Forgive me my sins, in Jesus name.

Lord, I glorify Your name for the work You are doing in Shawn's life. Father, I want to ask You to pour inside of me Your authority to "destroy the work of the devil". I pray that You will give compassion adn Your power to cast it out and cleanse Shawn from inside out. Daddy, I put my trust that the work that You started in her, You will bring in completion through the victory in Christ. I praise the Holy Spirit fro an amazing effect of purging us from any devil schemes.

Lord, I pray that You will set me free from any slumbering and seducing spirits. I command my spirit to follow the lead of the Holy Spirit. I belong to Christ and "this is how I know that He (Jesus) lives in us. We know it by the Spirit He gave us." (1 John 4:24). Thank You for doing these marvelous acts of mercy and love.

cite the scripture

It has been an interesting day.

When I woke up, I was so disinetersted in doing things. The atmosphere was so sleepy and drowsy. After taking shower, things started happening.

Even in my thoughts, there were two ideas: I wish Shawn and I would go for a walk; and that Shawn would take a shower to be awaken and refreshed. Well, those two things Shawn fulfilled even without me asking. It might seems insignificant, but I found great joy to walk with Shawn, get some coffee at Mocha and knowing that she woudl go to pray at Park Place.

Another siginifcant piece of the early morning and afternoon: in my converstaion with mom, I felt so drowsy and sleepy, but I decided to cite a scripture to her by memory. She said to me that as soon as I spoke the scripture my emotions changed and the voice became happier and lighter. Praise the Lord!!!

My mom and Hellen both encouraged in the Lord.

I shall continue to be in the Word and cite it with my mouth.

be ready with Word

1). Yesterday I had an intense attack from the enemy. The evil one had planned a day before to make a scheme for its evil trap. The reason for an attack is obvious. First of all, on Sunday *Easter* at Judy's house we held the Bible study "Facing Your Giants", after which Shawn voiced her concern that the demons are bothering her with my presence in the apartment. So we had a prayer and that evening at the house, we both prayed over the apartment with Anointin goil, the blood of Jesus and the Lord's Prayer in our lips, and with the Word Bible. Shawn got rid off some ocultic jewelry that she had from a Muslim man. That night she said that demons wanted to do something bad to me the next day. I did not take it seriously because I believe in teh victory of the Lord!!!! However, the enemy attacked Sam's car that was broken several tiems throughout the day. In addition, because of the car situation and some other reasons, we stayed together at Shawn's place. We were given to the intimacy that lasted five hours. It is not appropriate for our friendship and relationship, yet we were given to the temptation and desires of our flesh. I do not condemn neither myself nor Samuel, because I know the root fo problem behind it. But as a result, the Lord put on my heart a word of encourgament: that I need to speak His Word!!!!

2) Chuck Pierce's prophetic word is on "Be Ready!" It speaks about the strategy we need in this season when deliverance is coming.

• Know and rehearse my Word
• Move in the dark structure around you with My Word
• Be ready with my Word
• Sanctify yourself
• My Word is very near to your mouth
• My Word is coming alive again
• I sent My Word and healed them
• My Word is very near to you
• Your deliverance is near
• The next 5 months will be intense! Ready yourself with the Word at all times.

These are the few scriptures I started to meditate on...

1 John 2:14 "You are strong, and the word of God lives in you, and you have overcome the evil one."

Ephesians 6:17 "Take... the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God."

Ephesians 5:25-27 "Christ loved the church adn gave himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless."

Abraham into a new place

Genesis 12:1-3

12:1 Now the Lord said to Abram, “Go from your country and your kindred and your father's house to the land that I will show you. 2 And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you and make your name great, so that you will be a blessing. 3 I will bless those who bless you, and him who dishonors you I will curse, and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”

My dear Holy Spirit guided me to live with Shawn for the rest of the month April. I see it as a very significant event. I wish I moved in today, but Sam will take me tomorrow.

Father, I agree with Your word concerning Your desire for me (like Abraham) to move to a new place. I pray that Your provision and blessing will spread around many people. Bless others through me, I pray... Let Your communication adn Your presence be strong with us there.

In addition to that, let us see what the prophetic word says in Elijahlist.

"Living in the Blessing Zone! We are Called to Live in the Fullness of Covenant Blessings"

In the beginning, God created man in His own image and likeness, and He blessed them (see Genesis 1:26–29). We were created for blessing and, as a result, we have expectation for it. Through Christ's finished work on the Cross, the effects of sin have been removed so that we can once again live in the fullness of all the blessings of God. We, like Abraham, are called to be blessed and to be a blessing.

We have been blessed "with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ" (Ephesians 1:3). We are called to live in the blessings of God's exceeding great and precious promises.

We do not live by mammon! Believers in Christ do not live by mammon (or money). We live by blessings. We live in our inheritance. We were never called to live by mammon but by every word (promise) that proceeds from the mouth of God. When we posture ourselves to live by every promise, then money will follow us. "But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you" (Matthew 6:33).

We are called to live in the blessing zone! While in prayer a number of years ago, the Lord showed me that we, His children, have been called to live in a blessing zone – an environment of blessings. He instructed me to only receive blessings. If a circumstance came into my life that didn't appear to be a blessing, I was to command it to turn into a blessing. Even the worst of circumstances were eventually to be turned into that which would bless me.

When Job was assaulted with adverse circumstances, he kept his focus on God and did not turn from Him. He kept the faith. As a result, when the trial was over, Job was more blessed than ever before.
This is how we are to live in these days. Lock in to the promises of God by faith, and do not waver. Trust the Lord in these times, no matter what your circumstances look like. Choose to live in the blessing zone!

A Prophetic Word of Encouragement for You - Live in the Blessing Zone
"Child, do not fear! You are called to live in the inheritance that I have prepared for you in My Son. You are called to live in the blessings of your inheritance now, for you have truly been blessed with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ. I have freely given you all things. I have chosen gladly to give you the Kingdom. Live in the reality of My Kingdom.
"Know that you are blessed. Blessings shall come upon you and overtake you. Blessings will look for you and find you if you only believe. Do not fear the shakings in the world around you for, though you live in the world, you are not of the world. You belong to My heavenly Kingdom and you live under My rule and by My economy!
"Expect blessings each and every day and you will attract blessings. Call forth My blessings and they will come to you. My goodness and mercy shall follow you all the days of your life as you trust in Me. Do not look to the right or to the left. Live in the blessing of My faithful promises, for I have withheld nothing from you.
"You are blessed when you come in and you are blessed when you go out. You are blessed in your home and blessed in your workplace. You are blessed when you shop and you are blessed in every place you go. You are blessed when you pay your bills and when you make bank deposits.
"You are blessed in relationships and you are blessed in health and strength. You are blessed with wisdom, insight, and knowledge of witty inventions. You are blessed in all that you put your hands to do. Everything pertaining to your life is blessed.
"When you see circumstances that do not look like a blessing, command them to turn into a blessing. Do not lose sight of this. Endure in the truth and even what looks like devastation to you will turn into a testimony of blessing.
"I am good. You are created to know My goodness. Explore My goodness. I have called you to be extremely blessed. I have called you to be an extreme blessing in these extreme times. Live in the blessing zone!"
Patricia King

set me in a large place

Last night I stayed awake and read the book "Rees Howells Intercessor" by Norman Grubb. The Lord taught me through it and the Holy Spirit gave also directions to what I need to do.

Right now I would like to come back to the dream and the Bible verse from Psalm 118.
In that dream, after intercession, we were taken into a different city (larger) and also were inside of a secure large house.
The prophet Sandie Freed from the Elijahlist, speaks about it.

"Pressing Through! Do Not Allow Your Vision or Hope to be Stuck in the Narrow Place"

The Narrow Place
"Out of my distress I called upon the Lord; the Lord answered me and set me free and in a large place."-Psalm 118:5

The word distress comes from a Hebrew word, metsar and means "something tight (narrow), trouble, pain and strait (like a narrow place)" (Strong's #4712). In the narrow place, David experienced pain and bondage, just as many of us do—therefore we cry out to God for deliverance.

I use the narrow place as a point of reference when I refer to the birth canal. When a baby is birthed, it passes through a very narrow place before it is birthed into enlargement. It is the same spiritually when we are pregnant with purpose, potential and vision—all of it has to first pass through the narrow place.

The word narrow in this passage is similar to the Old Testament usage. It is the Greek word thlibo, which also means narrow, trouble and affliction of some type. Used as an adjective, Jesus used this word to describe the entrance or gateway to eternal life. He described it as a way to receive life. However, when thlibo is used as a verb, it means to press. This is referring to one having to press into the narrow place so that one may pass through the constricted place.

When studying the meaning of the narrow place, we also realize that it represents a place of trauma (Strong's #2346, 5147).

The narrow place is:
• A place of distress

• A place of stress

• A place to press and endure pressure

• A place of trauma

And if we cry out to God, He promises to:
• Deliver us from trauma, distress and affliction

• Set us free

• Place us in an enlarged place of freedom and increase!

Therefore any new revelation God speaks needs to be received by our hearts.
As we seek His Kingdom revelation, we must press into it! Luke 16:16 says this: "The law and the prophets were until John. Since that time the Kingdom of God has been preached, and everyone is pressing into it." Therefore we realize that the revelation that John had concerning the Good News and his fresh revelation of the Kingdom must all be "pressed into." We cannot receive present truth revelation without enduring the press.

I know I'm pounding this in a bit, but I need for you to understand that the lying, seductive snake sits at the threshold of your breakthrough. Its plan is to apply so much pressure that you are pressed, stressed, depressed and at the point of giving up.

Samson was pressed by his wife for seven days until he finally told her the riddle concerning the lion and honey. His wife used her seductive words to pry out Samson's secrets. Delilah did the same. Scripture says that Delilah "pressed him daily" for his secret. Samson gave in to the wiles of the enemy.

At your threshold, apply the Blood of Jesus and break forth into enlargement. Remember your covenant promises, and go through the gate of increase!

Prophetic Word and Prayer
I hear the Lord say to you that, "This is your month to receive great faith. Do not focus on the darkness about you, nor on the narrow place. I am revealing mysteries in this hour. These mysteries and revelations will challenge your mindsets and your thinking processes. Your heart will be challenged during this season. Do not allow your hearts to become hardened. Do not be confused and question My desires. I will empower you to keep pressing for victory and for your future. I am your Redeemer and I desire to redeem you from your past. Do not allow your vision or hope to be stuck in the narrow place. Press through and you will find yourself in a place of enlargement and great fulfillment."
Allow me to pray for you: Father, I pray for each reader today. I know that it is Your will to bring Heaven to Earth. As Heaven gets closer and miracles become more tangible, the devil gets angrier. I bind the seductive plans of the enemy from every reader. I take authority over his evil words and plans. I bind distress, stress, trauma and pressure which would attempt to hold His children captive. I come into agreement with every Believer and agree that Jezebel, Athaliah and Delilah will not be able to press them out of their destiny. I loose each person into joy and enlargement. In the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.

satan is defeated by the name of the Lord and our prayers.

The Lord is Good! Blessed be the Name of the Lord!!! He is the Lord above all! His name is examleted over every name. Jesus Christ- the Living Word!!!!

I exalt His name today for He is worthy!!!

Praise be to His Name. Let every house say, "Blessed be the Name of the Lord."

Psalm 118:

I will look in triumph on my enemies.

They surrounded me on every side, but in the name of the Lord I cut them off.

They swarmed around me like bees, but they died out as quickly as burning thorns;

in the name of the Lord I cut them off.

Shouts of joy and victory resound in teh tents of the righteous.

Today I had a dream.

I was with a young boy, we were riding bycicle. However, something happened that we bothered satan. So he decided to attend us in a coming time- Easter. There was like an assigned paper of sending satan troops against us (particularly that boy).

In our camp (the house) I talked to Mary Lou and said about the plan of satan to attend us. Becuase that city was a place where satan lived, I asked Mary Lou to talk to the boy (intercede) and encourage him to go to another city for refuge. So we went.

Being inside a house in another city... It was a big house. There were big windows that were secure. I started to close the blinds so the enemy would not know about us. The people that were with us were planning to leave. I prayed that God would protect us and that the enemy not even come close to this place. I pondered about whether the enemy will plan to come or they will be left ignorant where we went.

As I woke up, I shared that dream with my mom. Then we read Psalm 118. This morning I was emotionally down and unpleasant. But praise be to God, I Believe In His victory.

In Elijah list, I found a prophetic word about "Future Battle- Victory Belongs to the Lord!". I have been encouraged.

Gina Shaner wrote a letter that alsoe encouraged me. At this time prior to satanic invasion, we need to shield ourselves with prayers and intercession.

Blessed be the Name of the Lord,

Blessed is He for the Victory!

to Sam

I just want to express my thoughts and write something to Sam. What my thoughts are, so am I... What are my thoughts about Sam? How do I think about our relationship? Where would I like to be and what ways should I think?

Samuel L. Green is a person who likes to work hard and wholehearted. He puts his whole concentration on the subject and especially in the area of his interest.

He appreciates cursiosity that has always been with him. He likes to learn new things and seeks something to learn daily.
His grandpa and grandma were people who left an amazing impact on him. His grandpa Lewis was an achiever with excellent grades. His grandma put a passion in him to love music. It was her that thaught Sam "Holy Night" in black keys when he was a child.
His mother is another person of great influence in his life. He remembers countless times of her teaching and instruction in the ways of the Lord. She would make sure that her children follow the Lord. SHe would have Bible studies, prayers daily.

Sam loves people and likes to be around them. In his childhood and growing years, he was the quiet boy. He spent times playing with his borthers and sisters.
He has a best friend Nathan.
He loves his cousin Cherekey.

He loves food: to eat and to cook.

He remembers very well his teachers and friends.

He has an excellent memory of the events from the past.

His style of playing the piano is very melodic and reflective.

He worshippes the Lord through guitar and songs.

He lets people to be his friends easily.

He treats people with repsect.

He is really funny.

I just love to observe him and listen when he speaks from his heart.
I love to see how handsome he is. I love to look at his eyes and his face, his shoulders, his arms, his hair.

I appreaciate that he gave me gifts and tok me places.

I appreaciate that he calls and writes messages.

I appreciate that he trusts the Lord and prays at all times.

I am thankful that he does not speak negative to me or other people, his speach is seasoned with salt and grace.

I love that he has creativity.

He is a planner!!!! But he accepts spontaneuty with dignity.

He walks and meditates.

He notices the nature around and glorifies God for its beauty.

One of my favorite memories with him:

Dancing... During the summer of 2008, we danced on the street just across our house on west 6th. We danced and expected Rhyse to come with her parents. My mom took some picture. We both look so elegant and happy.

We also danced in his room and at Nate's house.

I love to sit on the couch and have conversations with him.

Beside his ability to share the stories, his posture is so calm and inviting for converstaion.

I love to the very end the way he holds or plays with my hands.

He is a fan of hands. He likes to draw hands and look at them.

I love to see other people who were deply touched by Sam.

You cannot notice what a positive impact he has on other people.

I thank the Lord for that.

I love to be the one who can hold him and just be near.

Coming back to my description of him:

He is mature. I mean his image and the way he speaks.

He is a child. You should see how innocent and beautiful his smile becomes when he laughs and enjoys the moment.

He is romantic. Music, the stars, letters, prayers, walks, etc ...

He is responsible. Responsible in how he spends money, in his attendance of classes and work. Responsible to the commitments with people.

He can be honest with his thoughts and feelings if you provide an environment, otherwise his thoughts (though an honest or any other) maybe laid deep inside of him.

P.S. Today is a significant day for him. He receives an honor from the Music AWard in excellent achievement in voice performance. My mom is present at Park Place and she would see that. I, on the other hand, is working in the library, but my heart has been rejoicing for him during several days. Blessings to the man after God's heart.

In Jesus
