God's Word my tent~ By Becky Leslie

It’s amazing how alive the Word of God is. And apparently, how alive and real it can be in any of our lives is up to us! We decide to what level we allow the Word of God to penetrate our hearts and move in our spirits. While it’s possible to remain completely untouched by merely ‘reading’ passages from the Bible; if you meditate, dwell on and think about God’s Word a lot — it can spring up alive in you and start working in you. And what’s to be surprised in that? The Word IS God anyway. It’s that God (the Word) then that we’ve been spending time with that births the work of the Spirit in our lives.

It’s what’s been happening to me. I’ve been studying the book of Job for a while now and I’m really not sure when I’ll be done (if you can ever be ‘done’). I haven’t got past Job 22: 21-30 yet. I just can’t get past it. As in, I literally find it impossible to read further. I’ve been reading, re-reading, saying out loud, saying in my thoughts, thinking, re-thinking and reading phrase by phrase these 9 verses for a few days now. As I’ve been doing that, I’ve seen God start to literally bring alive these words in my life and start cutting through my flesh and dealing with my heart using these very words. I’m finding myself in situations where these words are challenged and where they’re made relevant. It’s supernatural how God’s Word can become a fire in your bones and consume you till you are purified.

My previous post was about Job 22:24,25 about “assigning your nuggets to the dust, your gold of Ophir to the rocks”. Today, the Lord has been speaking to me through Job 22:22, 23. The verses say: “Accept instruction from His mouth and lay up His words in your heart. If you return to the Almighty, you will be restored; if you remove wickedness from your tent…”

The first part of this portion talks of two aspects — accepting His instruction & laying up His words in our heart — both of which are prerequisites to intimacy with God. Both speak of a relationship with the Word of God, that most Christians today don’t really have. My whole understanding of God’s Word and the relationship I have with it has been changing lately. My conventional attitude towards His Word has been challenged.

As Christians with easy access to the Bible, we’ve become so comfortable just reading it and receiving a little encouragement from it. The Bible is a good read generally speaking too and so for the most, it does leave one with a good uplifted feel. It is easy to be satisfied with that ‘feeling’. But do we have a relationship with the Word of God? Do we accept the instruction that comes from God through it? Do we lay up the Word of God in our hearts? Do we allow the Word to penetrate, change, rearrange and rework us? If not, we’re doing it wrong. Have you wondered why we give so much importance and weight to words that come forth from prophets or men of God and hang on to those words and run after them; but at the same time, don’t pursue the Bible — God’s very spoken Word straight from His heart, inspired by His Holy Spirit? Something we can ask ourselves today: Are we laying up His Word in our hearts?

The latter part of this portion is also challenging. Especially the words “if you remove wickedness from your tent…”. God’s been wrecking me with this phrase: “remove wickedness from your tent”.

Tents are private spaces not public areas. Tents represent solitude, privacy and confinement. This has been God’s constant challenge to me through this phrase: “What are you doing in your private, personal and confined moments?” We’re such great Christians and lovable people in public spaces. Our smiles are big, our hearts are large, our giving is elaborate, our hugs are long, our speech is filtered, our actions are careful and our reactions are measured. But, God doesn't seem to care about that if there’s wickedness in our tents. If there is sin in our private lives, in the confines of our rooms, in our secluded moments and in times of solitude. He wants the wickedness gone from the secret place. He seeks righteousness in the lonely hours. Our second question to ourselves today can be this: Is there wickedness in my tent?

Shut off, pause, be still to hear God!...

We sure need to pray at all times for all things.

Prayer sure is a heart to heart communication with God! Our relationship with our Lord Jesus Christ, sure is strengthened by frequent conversations with Him! Even if our prayers are long or short, loud or soft whispers, God listens! Even being silent in His presence or tears shed at His feet are prayers too! Let us not miss talking to our Lord n Savior! 

But sometimes we need to shut off the sounds of the world to hear God clearly. Sometimes there are so...many confusing voices around that we need to go into our closets to hear the voice of truth. 

Matthew 6:6, "But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you."

Regularly let us take time to shut off and seek His face as never before.

 Mark 6:31 And He said to them, "Come away by yourselves to a secluded place and rest a while."

LORD..HELP US TO TAKE TIME OFF FROM ALL OUR BUSY SCHEDULE,TO STOP AND BE REFRESHED, RENEWED, RESTORED BY STAYING STILL IN YOUR PRESENCE AND HEAR YOUR VOICE!

Good Night!

Julia

If God said it, He meant it!

God's Word never fails!

 If HE said it He meant it. Let us hold on to every promise God has spoken over our lives, every dream and vision He has put in our hearts and opened our eyes to see. The enemy may try hard to steal, kill, destroy, confuse and distort what God has spoken over our lives but let us not give in to doubt, fear or discouragement, but let us hold on to what God has promised!

Hebrews 6: 18, ".......which it is impossible for God to lie, ...."

God's always true and we can rest secure in HIS promises. We don't have to fear or wonder if He will keep His word.

All His Promises are "YES" and "AMEN" in Him.

God is faithful!

Praise You Lord Jesus Christ!

Good Night

WHERE ARE MY NUGGETS, MY GOLD OF OPHIR? ~Becky Leslie

Hi Family and friends...

May this week be the most blessed week...

May we see the world through the eyes of God and not miss a sigh or tear of someone who is hurting or in pain around us. May we reach out to the lost and forgotten ones. May we be imitators of Christ. 

God is sure on the move, He will cause the Body of Christ to shine so... bright, that every power of darkness will be dispelled and overpowered!

May we be His light as Jesus was and is the light! 

Let us choose to rejoice and sing even in midst of opposition from the evil one, rejection, pain because God is with us through it all! 

He will raise us up! He is the Glory n The Lifter of our head.

Last week was so...blessed by something our daughter Becky wrote for "Kerygma", our Church weekly newsletter. 

Let us lay our all at our Savior's feet...!

Stay blessed...

In Christ...

WHERE ARE MY NUGGETS, MY GOLD OF OPHIR?

When we go through tough times, challenging situations and turmoil in our lives; it’s good for us to have something to come back to in God’s Word that will put our lives back in perspective. If we don’t have a close relationship with the Word of God and keep coming back to it to derive our strength, portion and substance from it; we are sure to end up allowing our circumstances to get the best of us. 

The book of Job has always been that source of timely perspective for me. Surely, Job went through far much than any of us have been through and his life sort of covers almost every situation a Christian could possibly walk in. Dealing with financial loss? Job did too! Mourning the death of a loved one? Job did too! Have a sickness or illness you’re battling? Job did too! Have friends that criticize you? Job did too! Have marital problems? Job did too! Have people falsely accusing you? Hello, Job did too! Don’t know when your chaos and pain will end? Job didn't either! Don’t know why God doesn't seem to be moving on your behalf? Job didn't either. You get the drift of what I’m saying. This is a great book to come back to at any time and be encouraged. 

So, getting to what I actually intended to share in this article...here’s a portion I read a few days back and have been meditating on. It’s Job chapter 22: 24, 25 (NIV): “If you remove wickedness far from your tent and assign your nuggets to the dust, your gold of Ophir to the rocks in the ravines, then the Almighty will be your gold, the choicest silver for you.” 

Since I read this, I started asking the Holy Spirit to teach me what it meant to “assign my nuggets to the dust, my gold of Ophir”. I was lead to read about Ophir in the Bible and its significance. 

This is what I learnt: 

• The land of Ophir has been mentioned a few times in the Bible but always in reference to its gold. 

• 1 Kings 9:28 speaks of how King Solomon sent ships to Ophir to bring back the best gold from there into his kingdom. 

• 1 Kings 10:11 tells us that when the wealthy Queen of Sheba came to visit King Solomon she gifted him the gold of Ophir. 

• 1 Chronicles 29:4 shows us how the gold of Ophir was brought in to build the temple of God. 

• Isaiah 13:12 refers to the gold of Ophir as a rare thing.

• In Psalm 45, David sings to the Lord saying, “at your right hand is the royal bride in gold of Ophir”.

The Lord started to stir my spirit and show me that He isn’t looking for the best that we can give him at any given point. He isn’t looking for a people who will give him a certain place in their lives. He even isn’t looking to be ‘a part’ of  our daily routines. He wants our everything! Everything. 

Church, even as we go through a month of learning from this theme “Let Us Build”, I’d like to share some hard truths about building His Kingdom that the Lord has been teaching me. If we don’t lay down our everything — our best and our worst, our firsts and our lasts, our strengths and our weaknesses and everything we consider precious and hold close to our hearts — if we don’t lay all this down and bury it in the dust, there honestly will be no “building” at all. 

The verse uses the word ‘nuggets’? Nuggets are small pieces not huge boulders. What are those small areas in our lives that are so precious to us, that we’d rather keep them in our hands than bury them in the ground? Is it a dream that we’d like to see fulfilled? Is it a relationship we’d like to have or maintain? Is it a love for money or a desire for success? Is it a need to be seen, heard and noticed? What are these nuggets that we choose to hold on to?

What is our ‘gold of Ophir’? People went on missions to look for gold in Ophir. What is our life mission? Are we on a search for significance? Is the conquest of our lives something materialistic or temporary or earthly? If so, are we willing to bury our gold of Ophir — our prized accomplishments, our unique talents, our expensive efforts, our costly callings, our lavish desires and extravagant objectives. 

You’ll notice that the verse clearly says that only when we render our nuggets useless and assign it to the dust and our gold of Ophir to the rocks, only then will God be the choicest of gold for us. 

Church, if we are passionate about building anything for the Lord, how can we start unless buried deep in the foundations are the things we consider precious? The Lord is looking to build a Church in these last days, that will stand on a foundation of precious stones that are the sacrifices made by Christians who have given their everything to Him. This last day Church will stand on a grave that has buried deep inside it dead desires, dead dreams and Christians dead to their flesh. 

Are you willing to be a part of this end time remnant? If so, ask yourself this today: “Where are my nuggets, my gold of Ophir?” 

God richly bless you this week and may you have your own revelation of the King and His Kingdom. 

In Him, 

Becky Leslie.

Imitators of Christ....

Jesus Christ our Lord was a 'down to earth' person for sure! He came “Down to Earth” on mission from the Father; a mission of love and obedience! He was the 'Almighty One' but walked with humility on earth. His messages were never complicated and often spoke in parables that even a child could understand. He was never unapproachable, even children loved to be around Him. He was 'The Holy One' but never was 'self-righteous'. That's why He wants us to be Holy as He was Holy but never self righteous. Our righteousness are like 'filthy rags'.(Isaiah 64:6)

☆

1 Peter 1:15-16, "..but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, because it is written, “Be holy, for I am holy.”

 We are to be imitators and followers of Christ!

Paul write in 

☆

1 Corinthians 11:1, "Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ."

☆

Ephesians 5:1 "Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children."

Max Lucado writes like this about our Lord and Savior!

▓▒░☆ QUOTE>>The Almighty did not act high and mighty!

The Holy One wasn't holier-than-thou.

The One who knew it all wasn't a know-it-all.

The One who made the stars didn't keep His head in them.

The One who owns all the stuff on earth never strutted it! (displayed it) Never! He could have. Oh how He could have!

  He could have been a name-dropper: "Did I ever tell you of the time Moses and I went up on the mountain?"

  He could have been a showoff:" Hey want me to beam you into the 20th Century?"

  He could have been a smart-alec:" I know what you are thinking. Want me to prove it?"

  He could have been highbrow and uppity:"I've got some property in Jupiter..."

Jesus could have been all these, but he wasn't.

His purpose was not to show off but show up.

He went to great pains to be a human as a guy down the street.

He didn't need to study, but still went to the synagogue.

He had no need for income, but still worked in the workshop.

He had know fellowship of angels and heard the harps of heaven, yet still went to parties thrown by tax collectors.

And upon His shoulders rested the challenge of redeeming creation, but took time to walk 90 miles from Jericho to Cana to go to a wedding.

As a result people liked Him.

Oh, there were those who chaffed at His claims.

They called Him a blasphemer but never called Him a 'braggart'.

They accused Him of heresy, but never arrogance.

He was branded as radical but never called unapproachable.

There is no hint He used His heavenly status for His personal gain.

His faith made Him likable, not detestable.

☆░▒▓ UNQUOTE

Wouldn't it be terrible if Our Lord Jesus Christ came back for His body and we didn't look like Him?

☆EPHESIANS 5:1, "Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children"

May the Holy Spirit help us to reflect Christ in all we do and say.

May Christ's all loving, never failing love govern our hearts and minds.

Our Lord is Holy and He will come back of a spotless and blameless bride and God's faithful to complete the good work He started in us and perfect us so that the day we see Him we will be like Him.

☆1 Thessalonians 5:23 "May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 24 The one who calls you is faithful and he will do it.

☆1 John 3:2, "

 Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when Christ appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is."

Be blessed..

Let us pray....

Prayer sure is a heart to heart communication with God!

Our relationship with our Lord Jesus Christ, sure is strengthened by frequent conversations with Him!

Even if our prayers are long or short, loud or soft whispers, God listens!

Even being silent in His presence or tears shed at His feet are prayers too!

Let us not miss talking to our Lord and Savior this day!

Let us pray..

Julia

He is God of All...!

Our God is the God of hills and valleys...He is everywhere...! 

 1 Kings 20:28 "The man of God came up and told the king of Israel, “This is what the Lord says: ‘Because the Arameans think the Lord is a god of the hills and not a god of the valleys, I will deliver this vast army into your hands, and you will know that I am the Lord.’”

Our walk may not always be on level ground or on bed of roses.

We may not always enjoy mountain-top experiences.

We often walk the difficult path down the mountain, in the valley...

Let us not despise valley walks, we will sure hear God the loudest there and His voice will resound as it echos. 

Let us press on and not give up...but hold on to Jesus Christ, He is the glory and the lifter of our head!

He will never leave our side if we put our trust in Him.

No matter how difficult the path may be right now...if we walk with the Lord we will reach the right destination!

He will redeem us and give us honor...

Have a blessed day...

Home Remedies To Treat Obesity Naturally - My Health Tips

~Esther Anointing~by Becky

Hi  

Here below is something written by our daughter Becky...

Be blessed,

Julia 

~ESTHER ANOINTING~

I have been studying the book of Esther and would like to share something from the book and what the Lord has spoken to me about it. 

Key Verse: 

Esther 4:16:

"Go, gather together all the Jews who are in Susa, and fast for me. 

Do not eat or drink for three days, night or day. I and my maids will fast as you do. When this is done, I will go to the king, even though it is against the law. And if I perish, I perish."

After reading the book of Esther, I have come to strongly believe that God wants us to be the Esther-generation. Joshua-generation, you have heard. Surprised are you? Let me expound.

In that one verse, Esther made history. She fasted, prayed and ventured to do that which was never done before. She stepped into the unconventional and dared to do that which would lay her very life on the line. Let me line a few things we can learn from Esther just by reading that one verse: 

• She was a woman of prayer. How many of us pray before we go for important meetings? How many of us ask others in our fellowship to pray for us when we make important choices? The Lord is calling us to be a people of prayer who will seek His face before we make any important choices in our life. Even before we take steps that seems drastic and risky. 

• Esther did not pray alone. She mobilized as many people as 

possible to join her in prayer. When was the last time we were a part of a massive prayer chain that changed history almost instantaneously? Something to think about! Corporate prayer can change the fate of a nation destined to die. Its time we start praying in groups for people around us that we know are on their way to death, people that are dying everyday to drugs, sexual abuse, alcohol, pride, false religion, fake spirituality, etc. 

•Esther and her mates fasted and prayed. 

Fasting. It is congruent to miraculous and unnatural happenings. Fasting can move the Hand of God. Giving up stuff that we fancy doing and praying 

earnestly can kick- start a series of divinely orchestrated events that defy human logic. God wants us to start getting serious with fasting and praying. He knows that is the key to getting to places that we have never been before. Even before Esther found favour in sight of the earthly king, she had already won the heart of her heavenly King through her commitment and fortitude. So could we. 

God's favour always precedes man's favour and the thing that precedes both of these is, of course, fasting and prayer. 

• "When this is done, I will go to the king, even though it is 

against the law. And if I perish, I perish". I don't know what you think when you read those lines but I am challenged to get up and go do something life changing! They seem like lines straight out of an adventure novel. In this one line, Esther summed up what a Christian's attitude should be like today. She demonstrated a steely-eyed courage caring less for her own life but more for the work of God and she ventured to do that which was forbidden by man. The natural law did not intimidate her, norms did not frustrate her, and written facts did not deter her. She knew a God who surpassed the natural and dwelt in the realm of the supernatural and she found it simpler to believe and trust in Him. I believe the Lord is specifically calling us to stand up and say that which was never said in public before and do that which was never imagined before. 

Often, the choices we make may seem outrageous and not even `right' or `lawful'. But who ever made history by living according to man made law and standard? Those who have been remembered as `courageous' are those who have dared to break the `law' and do the impossible. My friend, God has called us to not be ashamed of the stand that we take. He has called us to boldly speak up and once we take the step, He will divinely grant favour in the sight of the most `difficult' people. Many of us are in crisis today because we fear `authority' and believe that we must `submit at all times'. 

However, God is calling us to be the Esther-generation. With fasting and prayer, when we approach people we fear and people who hold our `fate' in their hands; we will see God grant us uncommon favour in their eyes. 

May the Lord bless you and may you be challenged to live an exceptional life! 

I pray that God will give us an Esther anointing, so that we can impact this world just by being intimate with the King! 

Be blessed!

BECKY.

~Fruit of the Spirit~Author Unknown

Galatians 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law.

~Fruit of the Spirit~

It's quiet. It's early. 
My coffee is hot.

The sky is still black. The world is still 
asleep. The day is coming. In a few 
moments the day will arrive. It will roar down the track with the rising of the sun. The stillness of the dawn will be exchanged for the noise of the day. The calm of solitude will be replaced by the pounding pace of the human race.

The refuge of the early morning will be 
invaded by decisions to be made and deadlines to be met.
For the next twelve hours I will be exposed to the day's demands. It is now that I must make a choice. Because of Calvary, 
I'm free to choose.

And so I choose.
I choose love ... 
No occasion justifies hatred; 
No injustice warrants bitterness.
I choose love.
Today I will love God and what God loves.
I choose joy ... 
I will invite my God to be the God of circumstance.
I will refuse the temptation to be cynical... 
the tool of the lazy thinker.
I will refuse to see people as anything less than human beings, created by God.
I will refuse to see any problems anything less than an opportunity to see God.
I choose peace ... 
I will live forgiven.
I will forgive so that I may live.
I choose patience ... 
I will overlook the inconveniences of the world.
Instead of cursing the one who takes my place, I'll invite him to do so.
Rather than complain that the wait is too long, I will thank God for a moment to pray.
Instead of clenching my fist at new assignments, I will face them with joy and courage.
I choose kindness ... 
I will be kind to the poor, for they are alone.
Kind to the rich, for they are afraid.
And kind to the unkind, for such is how God has treated me.
I choose goodness .. 
I will go without before I take dishonest gain.
I will be overlooked before I will boast.
I will confess before I will accuse,
I choose goodness.
I choose faithfulness ... 
Today I will keep my promises.
My debtors will not regret their trust.
My associates will not question my word.
My wife will not question my love.
And my children will never fear that father will not come home.
I choose gentleness ... 
Nothing is won by force.
I choose to be gentle.
If I raise my voice may it be only in praise.
If I clench my fist, may it be only in prayer.
If I make a demand, may it be only of myself.
I choose self-control ... 
I am a spiritual being.
After this body is dead, my spirit will soar.
I refuse to let what will rot, rule the eternal.
I choose self-control.I will be drunk only by joy.
I will be impassioned only by my faith.
I will be influenced only by God.
I will be taught only by Christ.
I choose self-control.
Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.To these I commit my day.
If I succeed, I will give thanks.
If I fail, I will seek His grace.
And then, when this day is done, 
I will place my head on my pillow and rest.

~UNKNOWN~

Every soul precious to God...

May our Lord continue to read, share, sing, write, speak and live the uncompromising, Word of God...

May the lost be found, those fallen back return and may unbelievers turn to our Savior!

When speaking the truth we may be rejected, scorned and laughed at, loose some friends or we may get stoned!

But who cares if one soul is lead to our Savior..the chance that just maybe one will avoid hell will be worth it...!

 Luke 15:7, "I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent."

Hi.. ☆ º Read this quote once,"Argument wins the situation,but loses the person you love. Situations are not important, People are"  People are very important to our God.

Doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it? 5 And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders 6 and goes home. Then he calls his friends and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.’ 7 I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent." ☆ º There is rejoicing in the presence of angels of God when ONE sinner repents.  Luke 15: 8 “Or suppose a woman has ten silver coins[a] and loses one. Doesn't she light a lamp, sweep the house and search carefully until she finds it? 9 And when she finds it, she calls her friends and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost coin.’ 10 In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.” ☆ º And Father rejoices when the prodigal son returns.  Luke 15: 32 "But we had to celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’” ☆ º Abba may we Your children never cause anyone to stumble.  Matthew 18:6 “Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were drowned in the depth of the sea. 7 Woe to the world because of offenses!
