Equipped by the Word.

2 Timothy 3:16-17; John 12:49; Matthew 10:19-20; Deuteronomy 31:6; 2 Timothy 1:7; Proverbs 18:21; John 1:1-4; Luke 8:52-54; Isaiah 40:8; Matthew 5:6; Isaiah 30:21; 1 Peter 1:8-9; James 4:2; Hebrews 11:6; Psalm 69:32; Revelation 3:7; John 8:23; Ephesians 6:13-14; 2 Corinthians 12:9; 1 John 4:4; Hebrews 13:5; Psalm 30:5; Luke 18:27; 1 Chronicles 4:10; Luke 6:38; Psalm 23:4

We are walking in today: Equipped by the Word.

2 Timothy 3:16-17 16) All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17) That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works. Basic training has equipped us in God's word. All 66 books of the Bible are God's special resources to provide instruction and empower us to live out God's good will in our lives. Equipped is defined as to supply with necessities such as tools or provisions. To make ready, prepared. Think about it--the word is Inspired by God. We need a close relationship with God and help from the Holy Spirit to rightly discern and apply God's word to our lives. We are truly equipped fiveamprayer!!! The word of God is all we need. For reproof convicts us of our wrong thoughts and ways. God's spirit not only teaches about what is but also help us be aware when we have not properly responded to that truth (doctrine). The word is used for correction. Straightens us up back to the standard. God through the ministry of the Holy Spirit is not only interested in telling us of our wrong actions and motivations--He is there to build us up. The Spirit again uses the word of God to build us up back to where we should be. God's word is sufficient to help us be wise and godly people. God's spirit does not only equip us for righteous living but also for the spiritual battle that we are called to serve in. We are assaulted from each and every side, and yet the spirit of God comes back and encourages us in the ministry of carrying out the works of Jesus through our lives. Equipped in all things. God's word equips us so that He can do His divine work through our lives. We need to be careful not to trust in ourselves and experiences, but to diligently discern how the spirit of God would equip us as He did for Jesus Christ during His life on earth. John 12:49 For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak. Jesus warned His disciples not to plan ahead how they were to defend themselves in a time of persecution because the spirit of God would help them in such a time. Matthew 10:19-20 19) But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak. 20) For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh in you. If I hold my peace let the LORD fight my battle I know that victory shall be mine. We are equipped even in our silence. The battle is not yours its the LORD's. Deuteronomy 31:6 Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the LORD thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee. Yea and Amen!!!!
Do not be discouraged--be of good cheer. 2 Timothy 1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. Fiveamprayer, hold on to the word of God. If you hold on to the word, He will move mountains. If you hold on to the word, He will give you knowledge, wisdom and understanding. Meditate on the word today! It is the only thing that will sustain you, keep you, restore you and revive you. The Lord has already prepared you--speak His word. Proverbs 18:21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. God has given us power with our words. The most powerful words to speak are God's words. Are you looking for things to come to alive in your life? Speak His word. Many of us are just speaking any old thing and we end up with just that, any old thing. We can not continue speaking death and looking for life to show up! Speak His word, it will not return void. Don't be discouraged, all that we need is in the word. John 1:1-4 1) In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2) The same was in the beginning with God. 3) All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4) In him was life; and the life was the light of men. Fiveamprayer, how many of us are stumbling around in the dark, looking for the way out? Can't seem to find the light switch in that dark room? How many times do you run to everything else but the word and are still lost and confused?! We must seek the word, speak the word and meditate on the word. We have got to get the word in us, so much so that, is all that comes out. We can rip up what we have planted with our words. All the good work and progress, can be reversed with our words. Speak His word and hold to it no matter how it looks or who disagrees with you. Remain in agreement with God and His word. Everyone will not understand what you are doing, if you are lead by God--proceed in His instructions. They laughed and rejected Jesus because the people did not understand what He was doing. Luke 8:52-54 52) And all wept, and bewailed her: but he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleepeth. 53) And they laughed him to scorn, knowing that she was dead. 54) And he put them all out, and took her by the hand, and called, saying, Maid, arise. We know what our Lord was doing--going about His Father's business. That only requires the approval of One, the Lord. Speak His word in all situations. Isaiah 40:8 The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever. We can count on His word, it is the only thing that will not fade nor change over time. He gives us living water and manna from heaven, read His word and be filled! Matthew 5:6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. Fiveamprayer, are you hungry? Are you thirsty? Seek righteousness in the word--then start speaking His word over your life. We find what we need in His word. We hear from Him--Isaiah 30:21 And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left. Seeking and being obedient to the word in your life leads to joy unspeakable as it says in 1 Peter 1:8-9 8) Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: 9) Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls. We are walking by faith, not by sight. We must believe to receive. James 4:2 Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. We can ask according to His word. Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. This is the the same word that will equip us, if we would search it out. Spend time reading and thinking on the scriptures. Psalm 69:32 The humble shall see this, and be glad: and your heart shall live that seek God. The Lord will make a way for us, that are seeking after Him. Revelation 3:7 And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth. This is our year of abundance--the Lord is pouring out blessings that there will not be room enough to receive. He pours out such a feast of wisdom, knowledge and insight--which keeps us steady with all that is going on in this world. As Jesus tells them, in John 8:23 And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world. So we don't have anything to fear from this world. Continue to stand on His word--don't not be moved by anything!! The word you are standing on is from the mouth of El Shaddai, Jehovah Jireh, and Emmanuel--this word does not come back void. His grace is sufficient and His mercy endures forever. God never fails!!! The devil is already defeated. We can speak what it says in Isaiah 54:17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD-- and the Lord will deliver on His word. We serve an all knowing God, as it says in, 1 John 3:20 For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things. He has the master plan--get in the word and apply it to your life!! We need to be in relationship with God, this is all about restored relationship--back in right standing with Him. Stand on His word, after doing all that you can to stand. Ephesians 6:13-14 13) Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 14) Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness. Oh taste and see that the Lord is good! He has given us an guarantee--when we are weak, He is strong. Read it and walk in it today. We know that God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, love and a sound mind. The devil is a liar, he is the father of all lies. We wage war against him--matching angels with demons, we are not afraid. Suit up for battle, fiveamprayer!! Through prayer and study of His word. This is a war, make ready!! Speak the word of God--2 Corinthians 12:9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 1 John 4:4 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. Hebrews 13:5 Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. Psalm 30:5 For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning. I dare you to call God on His word! He is blessing and showing up in an abundant way. He is even answering our thoughts! Bring His word back to Him always, not just when you are in trouble. He said He would never leave nor forsake us, not that He is only available when we are in trouble. He is a constant presence, if we would only take the time to seek Him. He is there, ready to be found. Isaiah 49:16 Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands; thy walls are continually before me. He is ever mindful of us--when do we stop to think on Him?! Thank You for Your word, Lord. Thank You for keeping us, when we need to be kept. We lift up fiveamprayer for what ever they are standing in the need of. Read His word, pick up your sword. We lift up prayer requests--Marissa Grant, who is preparing for surgery. We stand on Your word Lord and declare by His stripes she is healed! We ask for forgiveness--we speak everything else but Your word. Luke 18:27 And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God. Fiveamprayer we can do all things through Christ which strengthens us! Don't worry about finances or the economy, call on the name of Jehovah Jireh! Thank You for forgiving us with no condemnation. We are equipped to forgive others from studying Your word, thank You Lord, so that we are forgiven as well.

We write in the precious blood: 1 Chronicles 4:10 And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.

Welcome to the overflow....
Because he spoke the word of God, Jabez was blessed. As it says in, Luke 6:38 Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again. God wants to know if you trust in Him. Give Him your time, talent, treasure and life. Investment in the Lord has great returns! Thank You for Your word Lord, it never changes. His word just gets gooder and gooder. We can speak His word all day, Psalm 23:4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Don't give in to fear, because we know that greater is He that is in us, than he that is in this world. Hold on the best is yet to come!! Hold to His unchanging hand and unchanging word. He will take you from zero to suddenly! Sow your seed and release your faith. Many are called but few are chosen. We have answered the call, He has equipped us for the work. Speak His word over your life. We know that the battle is not ours but the Lord's. He left us with the Comforter. Fiveamprayer get more word! Are you hungry? Are you thirsty? God is raining down manna from heaven. God is more than able to sustain us. You are equipped with the word of God. How about you run to the word instead of your cell phone?! Why in such a panic to leave your phone at home and not pick up your word?! How many of us will turn around and go back home if we forgot our bibles?! Read the scriptures for yourself today. You have gotta get this word in you. It is our necessary equipment for this battle, for this walk, for our lives! Let us seek the Lord in His word. Check us out on facebook, the link is below. Have a blessed day!

Basic Training.

Psalm 91:7; Ephesians 6:12; 2 Corinthians 10:4; Isaiah 61:1; Jeremiah 1:5; Galatians 1:15; Ephesians 6:11; Romans 13:12; 2 Corinthians 6:7; Ephesians 4:14, 6:13; 2 Corinthians 5:7; Mark 9:23; Philippians 4:13; Isaiah 40:4; Psalms 23:4, 25:5, 8:4; Genesis 1:27, 31; John 10:10; 1 Chronicles 4:10

We are walking in today: Basic Training.

Psalms 91:7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee. It's time to remember what God taught us in basic training!!!! As Pastor Anitha Jones spoke on yesterday, we must walk in courage. It is going to take courage to sow your seed for your thousandfold return. This is our time and our season. Don't worry about the enemy--in Psalm 91:7 it said, a thousand shall fall at thy right side, and ten thousand at thy right hand, but it shall not come nigh to thee. The definition of basic training is the rigorous program of physical and mental training required in order for an individual to become a soldier in the military forces. We do understand that we are soldiers in the army of the LORD!!! This is a fight--Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. But just in case you forgot what you learned in basic training, here's a refresher. 2 Corinthians 10:4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) That's why He told us on Friday, nothing can stand in our way. I don't know about you, but God has already prepared us to get our abundance living. Fiveamprayer, remember that we were anointed for battle!! Isaiah 61:1 The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound. Pastor Taffe taught yesterday that, the anointing has an assignment. We are to follow where the anointing leads. God has already made provision to accomplish the assignment. We have to walk in the assignment, to please the Father. Fiveamprayer, what are your orders? Are you being an obedient solider? We have to trust that God knows us better than we know ourselves. He has chosen you for your particular assignment. Jeremiah 1:5 Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. See in basic training it's all about knowing who you are in Christ. Galatians 1:15 But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me by his grace. Come on fiveamprayer soldiers remember the blood?! Remember we are more than a overcomers! Jesus already over came the world. In basic training the first thing they give you is armour for battle. Ephesians 6:11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. Romans 13:12 The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light. 2 Corinthians 6:7 By the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left. Ephesians 4:14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive. Ephesians 6:13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Yea and Amen!!!!
God is taking us back to basic training. He knew us before we were born, He set us aside and sanctified us. Our weapons of warfare are not carnal, they are spiritual and mighty to the pulling down of strongholds. God has given us strength to move--how He wants us to move. Call on His name and the enemy has to flee. Go back to basic training, how we used to pray until something happens. We are suited up for battle as Ephesians 6:14-17 tells us, 14) Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; 15) And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16) Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. 17)And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. Covered in the blood of Jesus, fiveamprayer is ready for war! God has told us that when the enemy comes in like a flood, He will lift up a standard against him. Go back to basic training--the Lord spoke the whole world into existence back in Genesis--we have the power of life and death in our tongues. 2 Corinthians 5:7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight:) Mark 9:23 Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth. Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. God sometimes has to take us back, to remind us. Has God done anything for us?! Isaiah 40:4 Every valley shall be exalted, and every mountain and hill shall be made low: and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough places plain. Fiveamprayer, has the Lord made the crooked places straight? Ezekiel 34:11 For thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I, even I, will both search my sheep, and seek them out. Fiveamprayer, did the Lord come and find you? Psalms 23:4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Fiveamprayer, did the Lord comfort you in the valley of the shadow of death? Psalm 25:5 Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day. Last week, God told us, He is our guide. Psalm 8:4 What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him? Genesis 1:27, 31 27) So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. 31) And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day. We must hold on to what we learned in basic training!! The lies of the devil often attack the truth of these scriptures especially. Looking for us to doubt God's power--Matthew 28:18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. There is no need for doubt or fear, for we are in Christ and He holds all power in heaven and the earth. This word also cancels fear--what is there to fear with us being in Christ and He holding all power in heaven and earth in His hands?! Another attack is on questioning God's love for us, if we are worthy--John 10:10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. Hebrews 9:27-28 27) And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: 28) So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. Fiveamprayer, the attacks of the devil is why we must stay suited up, reading the word and in prayer. We must be on constant watch for ourselves and other believers. We are in the same army, have gone through the same basic training. So we should stand therefore, remaining in faith and standing on His holy word. Follow where the Holy Spirit leads us. Keep Your sword in your hand, which is God's word in your mouth! The Lord has promised to never leave nor forsake us. He makes a way of escape for us. Our God will not put more on us than we can bear. Be confident going about the your orders, that 1,000 will fall at your side and 10,000 at the right hand, but your enemies will not come night you--because the Lord is with you! Forgive us Lord, sometimes we forget who You are--Adonai Jehovah, the Lord our Sovereign. Lord, You are our everything--all sufficiency lies in You. Get back to basic training, this is a fight against powers and principalities in high places. Speak to the enemy--call on the name of Jesus, he has to flee. Get back to His word--walk in this word. We learned that we need the faith of a mustard seed, in basic training. We receive brand new mercies every morning, start the day off in your battlefield position--on your knees in prayer. We are children of the Lord Most High. Don't give up nor turn around, that is not what you were taught! Remember what you learned in basic training!! Keep walking and speaking His word. He didn't give us the spirit of fear!! We have to only believe that all things are possible by His hand. We lift up fiveamprayer, have them to hold on to what they learned in basic training. Fiveamprayer, stand on His word and on His promises. He is God and He can not lie. We are soldiers--fighting for the Lord. We lift up prayer requests, those known and unknown. We ask You Lord, for forgiveness, we forget that our weapons are not carnal but mighty through God, for the pulling down of strongholds through. Thank You, Lord for being faithful to forgive us when we ask, and when we forgive others. Let us walk unhindered, freely forgiving others at the very beginning. We don't wanna fight encumbered, and entangled in unforgiveness. We need to be able to move freely in the taking of new territory--following where ever the spirit leads us. Fiveamprayer, let us review what we learned in basic training so that 1,000 can fall at our side, and 10,000 on the right side but none will come nigh us!

We write in the precious blood: 1 Chronicles 4:10 And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.

Welcome to the overflow...
Make another request, fiveamprayer. God has already granted what we have requested. Hold on to God's word. Spend time in prayer and reading the scriptures. No matter what it looks like we can confess, "abundance is God's will for me and I will not settle for anything less." Read the scriptures for yourself today, especially Psalms 91:7--we are soldiers fighting in the army of the Lord. We must hold up the blood stained banner until we die. Have a blessed day.

Nothing Can Stand In My Way.

Genesis 24:56; Mark 11:23; Isaiah 54:17; Leviticus 26:13; Genesis 35:3; Exodus 13:21, 18:20, 23:20; Deuteronomy 1:31, 2:1, 5:33, 28:7; 2 Samuel 22:31; Romans 8:31, 35,39, 37; Isaiah 54:17; Philippians 4:13,19; Mark 11:23; Exodus 6:11; 1 Chronicles 4:10; Psalm 139:14

We are walking in today: Nothing Can Stand In My Way.

Genesis 24:56 And he said unto them, Hinder me not, seeing the LORD hath prospered my way; send me away that I may go to my master. See with God as our guide there is nothing that can stand in our way. He holds the master plan. The word in Genesis 24:56 said 'Hinder me not.' Even if a mountain is in your way, speak to the mountain and it shall move. As Jesus taught in, Mark 11:23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith. The enemy cannot stand in your way--Isaiah 54:17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD. Ask yourself a question this weekend. What has been standing in your way? Is it that relationship that God told you to let go? The thoughts in your mind of fear and doubt? Listening to your friends, instead of sitting at the masters feet for answers? Your obedience to the Father? It's time to do a self check, fiveamprayer. God has freed us from bondage, but you must make the decision to walk in the way that God guides and leads you. Leviticus 26:13 I am the LORD your God, which brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, that ye should not be their bondmen; and I have broken the bands of your yoke, and made you go upright. The Lord has freed us from our yolks and bands, fiveamprayer we are walking upright! Nothing can stand in your way!! Not even you!!! Let go and let God!!! He told us on yesterday, "I AM your guide." Genesis 35:3 And let us arise, and go up to Bethel; and I will make there an altar unto God, who answered me in the day of my distress, and was with me in the way which I went. He always makes away for you in your time of distress. Nothing can stand in your way!!! Keep your guide in front of you daily. Exodus 13:21 And the LORD went before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; to go by day and night. God Himself is moving obstacles out of your way. Exodus 18:20 And thou shalt teach them ordinances and laws, and shalt shew them the way wherein they must walk, and the work that they must do. With God as our guide He will show you how to walk in His way, where nothing can stop you. He has made us unstoppable. Exodus 23:20 Behold, I send an Angel before thee, to keep thee in the way, and to bring thee into the place which I have prepared. God has prepared the way for you, that's why nothing can stand in your way. Deuteronomy 1:31 And in the wilderness, where thou hast seen how that the LORD thy God bare thee, as a man doth bear his son, in all the way that ye went, until ye came into this place. Even in your wilderness nothing can stop you. God has to put you in, in order to bring you out!!! Deuteronomy 2:1 Then we turned, and took our journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea, as the LORD spake unto me: and we compassed mount Seir many days. Sometimes our guide will take us straight into the wilderness, but have no fear this is your way out. Trust God even in your time of struggles, disappointments, set backs, depression, etc... He will make away for you in the wilderness!!! Think about it, if you have a guide--what can stand in your way?!!! God said, "I put you in to bring you out!!!" Deuteronomy 5:33 Ye shall walk in all the ways which the LORD your God hath commanded you, that ye may live, and that it may be well with you, and that ye may prolong your days in the land which ye shall possess. Deuteronomy 28:7 The LORD shall cause thine enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before thy face: they shall come out against thee one way, and flee before thee seven ways. God is scattering your enemies out of your way. Fiveamprayer we must ask Him, "Lord rise up, let my enemies be scattered!!!!" 2 Samuel 22:31 As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the LORD is tried: he is a buckler to all them that trust in him. Nothing can stand in your way!!! Trust God!!! His way is perfect. He is our way out of no way!!! Yea and Amen!!!!
Aren't you glad that God came on yesterday to guide us, then this morning to tell us, nothing can stand in our way! God is on our side! Romans 8:31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? Nothing can stand in our way, even the mountains have to move!! The Lord makes a way--making crooked places straight. He is the way, the truth and the life. We are gonna get our breakthroughs! The Lord has made a way--He is the only way. Nothing can stand in His way. God has already worked it out. No matter what, do what God said--Romans 8:35,39 35) Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 39) Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. The Lord makes a way for us, there is nothing that can stand in our way, fiveamprayer!! He makes a way for us, even in the wilderness, the Lord guides, leads and protects us! Romans 8:37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. We are made more than conquerors through His love for us! What could stand in our way?! We will possess the land. Nothing will stop us. Hold on to the word. God will show up and show out. Fiveamprayer, you will reap the harvest, it you faint not. God is making a way out through our prayers. We are walking in a season of abundance of His: word, favor, grace and mercy. Keep moving and walking this word out. Walk in the way that God is leading you. Isaiah 54:17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD. We can tell the devil, "get behind me. Nothing can stop us. God has made us unstoppable." Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. The devil thought that he had us, wrapped up and tied up in our finances, depression, and that no good relationship. The devil is a liar. Our Lord makes a way of escape for us. Do you know who you serve!? The Greater One lives on the inside of us!! We are anointed and protected by the word of God. Nothing can stand in our way. Not even death--Jesus conquered that! God is making a way for us--you have to trust and believe. Sow your seed and release your faith. He makes a way--and continues to do so. Not missed a bill or a meal. God told you, that 2011 is your year of abundance. There is no lack in your house, even though you haven't worked in 2 years. Your enemies have been scattered. Thank You Lord! Praise His holy name! Don't be worried, nor be in fear. We have a way--the only way, the Lord. We can do all things through Christ, which strengthens us. Stop walking around saying that you can't or don't know how it will work out. It is not for you to know--leave that up to God. He is responsible to deliver on His promises. You are to follow where He leads you--faithfully. Our sufficiency does not lie in us, it all lies in God. When you really study the word, seeking to know Him better--you will begin to really walk in these scriptures. Don't be a believer who is all bound up due to lack of belief. Fiveamprayer, walk through this one, this weekend. Nothing can stand in our way. God has given us the power to speak to the mountains in our lives, finances--Philippians 4:19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. We can speak to obstacles--Exodus 6:11 Go in, speak unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, that he let the children of Israel go out of his land. We lift up fiveamprayer--nothing can stand in our way. You better start speaking to the mountains in your life! You are a believer and servant to the Most High God!! He has given us the power of life and death in our tongues. Speak His word at all times, fiveamprayer!! We have come together, standing on one accord. We know that there is blessings in unity. Bless us indeed! We are taking new territory. We ask You to cover all bereaving families. Forgive us for not going to You and You only--the way out of no way. Lord, we know that when You forgive there is no condemnation. We can remain in Your presence, sitting at Your feet, so that we can learn of You. In learning how You forgive, so that we can forgive others also. Thank You Lord for bringing us out with Your mighty hand.

We write in the precious blood: 1 Chronicles 4:10 And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.

Welcome to the overflow....
Nothing can stand in our way! Speak His word. If God be for us, who can stand against us?! We have the weapons of mass destruction--stongholds and chains shattered, through prayer. Get ready for a prayer conference like no other! We have something to praise God for! Hold on to His word. Don't get into doubt or fear. Nothing can stand in your way. Nothing can stand against His word. Stay in the race, continue on until the end. Nothing can stand in your way! The devil is trying to disguise your season. Abundance is God's will for me and I will not settle for anything less! He is a way, out of no way! Hallelujah! Fiveamprayer we can declare, "hinder me not!" Nothing can stand in our way. As it says in, Psalm 139:14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. We are anointed for battle. Start walking in the joy of the Lord is our strength! The Greater One lives on the inside of us! Fiveamprayer, you better know that. Don't fold under pressure--no matter what is going on, we have a way out. We serve a way maker, He makes a way of escape and the crooked places straight. Hallelujah God! Thank You Lord for showing us in Your word--You will keep us and make a way for us. If it wasn't for His grace and mercy. He always makes a way for us! Thank You Lord! Glory to Your name! Walk in this one all weekend. Stop talking the talk--walk the walk. Have a blessed day.

I AM your Guide.

Isaiah 58:11; Exodus 15:13; Psalm 25:9, 31:3, 32:8, 73:24, 78:72; Isaiah 49:10; Luke 1:79; John 16:13; John 8:32; Proverbs 3:6; Jeremiah 29:11; John 14:26; Psalm 119:105; Jeremiah 31:9; Galatians 5:1; Isaiah 2:3; Isaiah 54:17; Matthew 9:22; Luke 6:37; 1 Chronicles 4:10; Psalm 1:2; Philippians 4:13

We are walking in today: I AM your Guide.

Isaiah 58:11 And the LORD shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not. As Jesus told us to sit at His feet on yesterday, if we listen He will guide us to all truth. In Isaiah 58:11 God confirms His word as He guides us. This is our year of abundance. The Lord shall guide us continually, which means there is no lack. He will satisfy our soul in a time of drought. Sow your seed and release your faith. He will make fat thy bones and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not. I see increase all around me. Water in our dry places. Anybody thirsty this morning?!! God is our guide and the water He gives we will never thirst again. Living water for the soul, sitting at His feet. It will revive you!!!! Exodus 15:13 Thou in thy mercy hast led forth the people which thou hast redeemed: thou hast guided them in thy strength unto thy holy habitation. We are chosen by God. Remember--we answered the call, fiveamprayer. Let Him guide you!!!! Psalm 25:9 The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way. You are being taught by God--at His feet, stay in a position of meekness. Psalm 31:3 For thou art my rock and my fortress; therefore for thy name's sake lead me, and guide me. Psalm 32:8 I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye. I don't know about you, but I'm sitting at His feet for instructions!! Teach me Lord to hear Your voice. Psalm 73:24 Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me to glory. Psalm 78:72 So he fed them according to the integrity of his heart; and guided them by the skilfulness of his hands. We are being fed at the feet of Jesus--manna from heaven!!!! Brand new mercies everyday!!! Isaiah 49:10 They shall not hunger nor thirst; neither shall the heat nor sun smite them: for he that hath mercy on them shall lead them, even by the springs of water shall he guide them. There is so much protection sitting at the feet of God. He is our guide!!! Luke 1:79 To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace. John 16:13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. We have a guide to tell us the truth through the word. John 8:32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. I AM your Guide, said the Lord. Guide is defined as to direct in a way or course; supervise, or influence usually to a particular end; a person with guiding information; a person who directs another's conduct or course of life; a member of a unit on whom the movements or alignments of a military command are regulated. Proverbs 3:6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. John 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. Exodus 23:23 For mine Angel shall go before thee, and bring thee in unto the Amorites, and the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Canaanites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites: and I will cut them off. Continue to walk in the prayer of Jabez. Amen!!! To God be the Glory!!!!
I don't know about you, when I sat at His feet on yesterday, telling Him that His will be done--to have His way, He told me that He is my Guide. He will instruct, direct and protect us. God is the way--the only way. We get lost and confused when we don't follow Him. Follow His word, Psalm 119:105 Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. Get up seeking Him, fiveamprayer. He has brought us this far, why would He leave us now?! He is our God. He is the way and our guide. He is living water, that fails not. We receive brand new mercies every morning. We don't need a tour guide, we need a life guide--the Holy Bible. No matter which version you read, all that you need to know can be found in His word. Sit at His feet for Him to deliver, heal and teach. He is the Guide to the lost and confused. When is the last time you picked up your guide? He is waiting for you--the Lord is your guide. He will lead you in your marriages--reconciliation can be found in the guide. Pick up the guide, we have no lack, He came that we would have life more abundantly. God is sending the increase. He is pouring out blessings that there will not be room enough to receive. the devil is a liar, he doesn't want you to pick your guide. Pick up the guide and hear from God. He knows that you put seed in the ground, He is pouring out water like in Isaiah 58:11. Teach us how to walk it out, Lord. He says, "I AM, your guide." He will teach us how to walk it out--Jeremiah 31:9 They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I lead them: I will cause them to walk by the rivers of waters in a straight way, wherein they shall not stumble: for I am a father to Israel, and Ephraim is my firstborn. He will teach us how to stand--Galatians 5:1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage. He will teach us how to live peacefully--Isaiah 2:3 And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem. Thank You Lord for being our guide! You have humbled us while we sit at Your feet. I AM that I AM is our guide! Spend some quiet time with the Lord. He will guide, lead and direct you. He is the way. Isaiah 54:17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD. I AM, your guide--follow the word. He is our guide. He is sending us a message, but we won't pick up His guide. You want to hear from God and God wants to speak to you--get into the guide, His word. We lift up prayer requests those known and unknown. We lift up Marissa Grant for recovery from surgery, and complete restoration--it is in the guide. Matthew 9:22 But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour. Fiveamprayer, pick up your guide today. The same God that delivered Israel is the same God that we serve. He is the God of the encore, He did if for them, He will do it for you. Get in your guide! Forgive us for not seeking Your guidance. Seeking You in Your own words. Thank You for sending us the Comforter, who leads and guides us. Thank You for complete forgiveness which we learn we receive in forgiving others, as it is written in the guide--Luke 6:37 Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven. Read the guide for yourself. Jabez knew who his guide was!

We write in the precious blood: 1 Chronicles 4:10 And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.

Welcome to the overflow.....
Fiveamprayer, we have got a guide that grants us what we request. A Guide that leads us to all truth. A Guide that will never leave us nor forsake us. Read the guide and be encouraged. Don't just pick up the guide on Sunday. We serve a omnipresence God, so we have to seek His word all day, every day. Psalm 1:2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. You better be seeking Him in the word daily!! He is our way out. He shows us how to stand. Gives us our place and purpose. He is our guide--it is all in the word. We must learn to speak His word at all times. The Lord wants to be in relationship with you. Tell God, "I want You to be my guide. Be my guide Lord, while I sit at your feet, listening to Your word." Come to the Father, seek Him--He will guide you. To God be the glory. He is our guide--stay anchored in His word. He keeps us in perfect peace with our minds stayed on Him. He is our guide, He leads us to all truth. Fiveamprayer, take your battlefield position, on your knees. We have our Guide, who is teaching us to swing our sword, the word of God against the enemy. That is why we can make the confession in, Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. Thank You Lord!! There is nothing too hard for You! Thank You Lord, for Your word. Stay with your Guide. Read your guide. I AM that I AM is your guide. He goes before you. Don't be too busy, like Martha--He is trying to guide you, sit at His feet and learn from Him. Have a blessed day!

Position Yourself At His Feet.

Luke 10:38-42; Colossians 3:16; Isaiah 30:15; Matthew 14:23; Mark 1:35; Luke 7:38; Psalm 30:5; 1 Chronicles 16:10-12; Genesis 32:20, 30; Isaiah 54:17; 1 Chronicles 4:10

We are walking in today: Position Yourself At His Feet.

Luke 10:38-42 38) Now it came to pass, as they went, that he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house. 39) And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus' feet, and heard his word. 40) But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me. 41) And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things: 42) But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her. There are two observations related to fellowship with God. First, sitting at Jesus feet Martha was so busy in life that she had forgotten to stop to smell the roses. She had not taken the needed time to sit at Jesus feet and refresh her soul. The truth is when we sit at Jesus feet and make devotional time with Him, we are choosing something that can never be taken away from us. Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her. As we wait to hear from Him--sit at His feet. The world with all its alarms cannot steal away our devotional life with the Lord when we make it our highest priority. We must take time to devotionally meet with the Lord, where we can give Him our hearts, and commit our days to Him. If we want to keep ourselves spiritually sane and keep our lives from falling apart, we need to remember to sit at the feet of Jesus. The Bible says in Luke 10:39, that Mary took time to sit at Jesus feet and listen to His word. This means that Mary knew what was the most important in her life. Colossians 3:16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your heart to the Lord. How can we expect to keep our lives in spiritual tune when we never want to listen to Jesus? Christ wants us to listen to His word and obey it. He wants us to take time with Him where we can allow Him to once again speak to us, redirect us, and strengthen us for the journey. It is very important to have a daily quiet time with the Lord. Isaiah 30:15 says, for thus saith the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel; In returning and rest shall ye be saved; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength: and ye would not. In Matthew 14:23 And when he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into a mountain apart to pray: and when the evening was come, he was there alone. In this verse we find that Jesus 'went up into a mountain apart to pray.' He knew the importance of having a spiritual retreat where He could talk to the Father and commune with Him. Mark 1:35 And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed. When Jesus when up to the mountainside to pray, He separated Himself from the others. Separate yourself from the world, to sit at His feet. Luke 7:38 And stood at his feet behind him weeping, and began to wash his feet with tears, and did wipe them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment. It's okay, sometimes we sit at His feet and weep. God has a word on that--Psalm 30:5 For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning. Sit at His feet all day today. Deuteronomy 4:29 But if from thence thou shalt seek the LORD thy God, thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all thy soul. Make time to be in His presence, fiveamprayer. As David did in, 1 Chronicles 16:10-12 10) Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD. 11) Seek the LORD and his strength, seek his face continually. 12) Remember his marvellous works that he hath done, his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth. When we sit at His feet, we are seeking His face. Jacob is a witness of this. Genesis 32:20 And say ye moreover, Behold, thy servant Jacob is behind us. For he said, I will appease him with the present that goeth before me, and afterward I will see his face; peradventure he will accept of me. Wait on Him and seek His face. Genesis 32:30 And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved. Fiveamprayer, let us seek His face together! Praise His name!
We have to humble ourselves and sit at His feet. We need a word that speaks to us. We must ask Him, what His will is--not our will be done, but His be done. The joy of the Lord is our strength. Sitting at His feet we receive breakthroughs, just touch the hem of His garment for healing. You are already sitting at His feet, all wrapped up in His hem. Receiving from Him, His peace, love, wisdom, knowledge sitting at His feet. Put everything aside, sit at His feet make time for God daily. Sitting at His feet for more and more of Him. No one can do it but You, Lord. We need to be filled to where every word we speak is Your word. We are committed to You, we love You for teaching us to sow a seed in this season. We are seeking a way out, sitting at Your feet. Looking for reconciliation in marriages, sitting at Your feet. Lifting up our finances to You, sitting at Your feet. Asking for covering for our children, sitting at Your feet. Your word is the only thing that will keep us, provide for us, and restore us. Your word says that, Isaiah 54:17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD. Fiveamprayer is sitting at Your feet, Lord, in Your presence. We are in a relationship with You, Lord. Remember on May 18th we went to the Father to commit ourselves to Him again. We are seeking Him, we want the good part, that shall not be taken away from us! We want to know more and more of You, God. Sitting at Your feet: to be filled with the Holy Ghost, for another touch from You, for another anointing. We sit at Your feet to thank You for waking us up in our right minds, with brand new mercies, with a heart that is seeking You. You are our all in all--our everything. Fiveamprayer tell God, "I gonna stay right here, until You say to move." Sitting at His feet is where you get fed. Let us slow down and take time for a relationship with God. Spending time in His presence, reading His love letters to us and in conversation with Him. We gotta hear from You--he that has ears, let him hear. The Lord is the way out of no way. He can reconcile marriages. He provides for us, so we don't need to worry about finances. To find out how He accomplishes this, we must sit at His feet to hear from Him. To find out how to proceed. To find out, what is our part? Some times we forget to stop and just sit at Your feet, listening to every word that comes from Your mouth. We must tune everything else out--hear from God only, sitting at His feet. Take time today to meditate on His word, sitting at His feet. We are sorry for not taking time to sit at Your feet. Thank You for forgiving us. We know that when You forgive there is no condemnation. Lord we learn how to forgive others, sitting at your feet. Then we can say what Jesus said, "I do what I see My Father do," and release others of their offenses, as the Father has released us. We lift up prayer requests, those known and unknown. We lift up Marissa Grant who is preparing for surgery, sitting at His feet confessing by His stripes she is completely healed. Thank You Lord! Praise Your holy name! Fiveamprayer, we must slow down and take time for God. He has certainly made time for us, all the time, every time.

We write in the precious blood: 1 Chronicles 4:10 And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.

Welcome to the overflow
As you sit at His feet, make another request. Jabez was an honorable man, so he spent time at His feet, hearing from the Lord. Fiveamprayer is committed to You, Lord. We are not too busy--we must reposition ourselves to hear from You. Sometimes we can't hear from Him because we are out of position. Get back to your proper position, at His feet--you will hear from Him. He has so much to share with us, when we seek Him out. Seeking the Lord, let's Him know that He is important to us. We dedicate time to spending with Him--being in His presence. Sit at His feet--He is answering our thoughts. Slow down and sit at His feet today. Read the scriptures for yourself today. Have a blessed day.

Wait until you hear from Me.

Ezra 8:21-22; Luke 10:39-42; Matthew 11:15; Hebrews 12:1; Isaiah 26:3; Proverbs 24:16; Deuteronomy 4:30, 31; 1 Corinthians 9:24-25; Psalm 138:2; Numbers 23:19; Psalm 44:9-10; Isaiah 40:30-33; Ephesians 1:10-12; 1 Chronicles 16:24-25; Psalm 29:2; Psalm 72:19; Proverbs 3:5; Matthew 18:18; 1 Chronicles 4:10; Psalm 11:7

We are walking in today: Wait until you hear from Me.

Ezra 8:21-22 21) Then I proclaimed a fast there, at the river of Ahava, that we might afflict ourselves before our God, to seek of him a right way for us, and for our little ones, and for all our substance. 22) For I was ashamed to require of the king a band of soldiers and horsemen to help us against the enemy in the way: because we had spoken unto the king, saying, The hand of our God is upon all them for good that seek him; but his power and his wrath is against all them that forsake him. So now that we have sowed our seed we have to wait to hear from God. Why do we move in our own council?! The messes we are in, have been created by us and are due to not praying and seeking Him first, as Pastor Taffe taught on Sunday. Many of us are doing things backwards--making a decision and when it blows up in our faces, then we pray to God for help. It should be that we pray first, wait on direction from God and then move how He instructs us. Here are some ways to hear from God: studying the bible, attend a word teaching church, and spend time at the Father's feet. As Minister Davis preached that we must seek Him as Mary did in Luke 10:39-42 39) And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus' feet, and heard his word. 40) But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me. 41) And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things: 42) But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her. Fiveamprayer are we consistently choosing the good part? We must put aside the things that would interfere with hearing from Him. He has given us the choice, which will you choose? Any time you can get the word--be available to hear it. That is the most important part--Matthew 11:15 He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. Hebrews 12:1 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us. The devil comes to distract us from our season, our purpose, what we need to hear--we must be aware of that. What we seek is so important and precious we must go after it with our whole heart and mind. We must stay under the word, to keep our mind focused on Him--Isaiah 26:3 Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee. If we stumble, get back up and keep seeking Him--Proverbs 24:16 For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again: but the wicked shall fall into mischief. If it is not about God's business, then it is none of our business. Deuteronomy 4:30 When thou art in tribulation, and all these things are come upon thee, even in the latter days, if thou turn to the LORD thy God, and shalt be obedient unto his voice. Be focused and ready to hear--don't walk in with a made up mind, before God gives you the answer!! You are only causing a delay in healing, deliverance or blessing. Fiveamprayer, let us run with patience the race that is set before us, the word is our only option--it is guaranteed and does not bring sorrow with it, nor compromise, nor neglect. Deuteronomy 4:31 (For the LORD thy God is a merciful God;) he will not forsake thee, neither destroy thee, nor forget the covenant of thy fathers which he sware unto them. The provision from our Father is complete and full. 1 Corinthians 9:24-25 24) Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain. 25) And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible. We must walk according to His directions to see and access the promises written in the word. Pastor Taffe illustrated, that we should not need to be constantly reassured that God is with us. It is just like parents telling a child, "Didn't I tell you we were going?" Let us trust the Lord--walking by faith and not by sight. We don't need to 'feel' Him to know that He is with us--being reassured with every step. He has already said He is with us and we know that He can not lie, so by His own word and definition of who He is--He has to be there. Psalm 138:2 I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name. Numbers 23:19 God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good? Now if we would quit walking away...and being distracted or convinced there is another way. We can hold on and wait for the promise of what God said. Psalm 44:9-10 9) But thou hast cast off, and put us to shame; and goest not forth with our armies. 10) Thou makest us to turn back from the enemy: and they which hate us spoil for themselves. God also gives a benefit in waiting for His word in, Isaiah 40:30-31 30) Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: 31) But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. We are renewed in waiting for Him. He will give us insight, knowledge and wisdom. Because He can see forever, He already knows what is coming. Wait on the Lord, He knows what you need--strength, patience, stillness and forgiveness. Seeking Him first will give you what you need in all situations. Ephesians 1:10-12 10) That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him: 11) In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will: 12) That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ. The things that the Lord brings us through, is to show off His glory. His might! What a great God He is! 1 Chronicles 16:24-25 24) Declare his glory among the heathen; his marvellous works among all nations. 25) For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised: he also is to be feared above all gods. Psalm 29:2 Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness. Psalm 72:19 And blessed be his glorious name for ever: and let the whole earth be filled with his glory; Amen, and Amen.
Once you sow a seed and release your faith, wait on the Lord, He will renew your strength. Wait until you hear from Him. God is answering every prayer. Fiveamprayer, the breakthrough is in the waiting. He is showing us how to trust Him. Some of us are saying, "I have been waiting a long time." Wait on the Lord, don't be discouraged. He has an answer to every prayer. He always comes through. Trust Him like never before. He is I AM that I AM, Jehovah Jireh, Jehovah Tsidkenu, Jehovah Rapha, and Emmanuel. The Lord makes a way out of no way. The enemy comes to disguise our season. Wait until you hear from God. This is our season, our abundant time--wait on the Lord. What did God say about it? About your marriage? About your ministry? About your children? Hold on to His word. He will never leave nor forsake us! Don't move, fret or fear. He is coming through. Don't put your hands on it. Don't speak the words of the world. Wait on God, seek Him. Go on a fast, seek Him and wait. If God be for us, who can stand against us?! We know that late in the midnight hour, God will turn it around. He will bring us out of darkness into His marvelous light. Stay in the race. We know that our God shall supply all of our needs according to His riches in glory. Wait, fiveamprayer, no matter what. Wait on God. Stop trusting yourself, the world or man--look to Him. We want more and more of You God. Wait, don't get out of position. Don't stop waiting for Him--speak His words only. Get out of the flesh--wait on God. Don't seek the glory for yourself. To God be the glory! Turn it over to God--repent and submit to His will. No matter how long it takes, wait on the Lord. Proverbs 3:5 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. Wait on God, we shall be renewed. He is the answer--our everything, El Shaddai. We are waiting on You--decrease us as You increase, Lord. We are waiting on You, sowing a seed and releasing our faith, going on a fast and studying Your word, God. Thank You Lord for telling us to wait until we hear from You. Reposition yourself, humble yourself. Take your battlefield position, on your knees. Don't operate in self, wait on God. Now that there is seed in the ground--wait on the seed to grow. Everything we need is in the word. Line up with God--stay the course. What did God say? We lift up fiveamprayer, teach us Lord, how to wait. There is blessings when we wait--we learn obedience in the waiting. We lift up prayer requests those known and unknown. We lift up Justin Cooper, we know that by Your stripes He is healed. What did God say about your marriage? We serve a God of reconciliation. We bind up depression and loose peace and joy, in the mighty name of Jesus. As Jesus tells us in, Matthew 18:18 Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Wait on God--we don't need to make a way, He is the way. Lord we ask for your forgiveness, we don't always follow as You lead us. Thank You for sending a word this morning to let us know to wait until we hear from You.

We write in the precious blood: 1 Chronicles 4:10 And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.

Welcome to the overflow...
We have got to wait on the Lord. As Jabez said, if Thou would bless me indeed--he waited on God. Every time you thought there was no way--God made a way. He will do it again! We serve a God of the encore. We shall reap the harvest if we faint not. Do you think that He has brought you this far to leave you?! Keep praising Him. Keep giving Him the glory. We must be patient and wait on Him. Praise Him and give Him the glory. The Lord is the way--the way out of no way. He is doing a new thing. This is the season that God will open up a window and pour out that there will not be room enough to receive. Wait on God--He is your way out of no way. Eyes have not seen nor ears heard how God is going to show up in your life! Keep waiting on God--He is moving. It takes time for the seed to grow--to get to the harvest. We give You all the glory, because of Your word. We will wait to see what the end will bring. We have put all of our trust in You, Lord. Be encouraged and wait on the Lord. Have a blessed day.

Sow Your Seed and Release Your Faith.

Genesis 26:1-6,12-14; Exodus 5:1, 14:13; 3:21; Romans 8:28; 1 Corinthians 13:8; Isaiah 55:9; Hebrews 11:6; Malachi 3:7-12; Proverbs 10:22; 1 Kings 17:15-12; Matthew 6:33; Luke 6:38

We are walking in today: Sow Your Seed and Release Your Faith.

Genesis 26:1-6,12-14 1)And there was a famine in the land, beside the first famine that was in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went unto Abimelech king of the Philistines unto Gerar. 2) And the LORD appeared unto him, and said, Go not down into Egypt; dwell in the land which I shall tell thee of: 3) Sojourn in this land, and I will be with thee, and will bless thee; for unto thee, and unto thy seed, I will give all these countries, and I will perform the oath which I sware unto Abraham thy father; 4) And I will make thy seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will give unto thy seed all these countries; and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; 5) Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws. 6) And Isaac dwelt in Gerar. 12) Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year an hundredfold: and the LORD blessed him. 13) And the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great: 14) For he had possession of flocks, and possession of herds, and great store of servants: and the Philistines envied him. The word "famine" found in the above passage of scripture comes from a Hebrew word meaning dearth or extensive hunger; it also means scarcity or lack. Famine in our lives can take many forms-- spiritual, physical, financial, or even emotional "dearth". Do you feel like there is a famine going on in your life? Many people would say the United States is in a financial famine. But I would suggest that there are many people facing famines on several fronts. The good news is that God's word gives us the principals for victory in the middle of a famine. Consider the story of Isaac in Genesis 26, Isaac was living in a place called Gerar when famine struck the region. His first inclination was to flee the area and go down to Egypt, hoping things would be better there. To the natural mind, that approach to the problem he was facing makes sense and most people would do the same. But God spoke to Isaac and told him to handle the situation in a manner that was completely unconventional and illogical to man's way of thinking. Fiveamprayer you must get this one in order to not miss your season of abundance. Setting aside for this prayer conference is an act of your faith. I know some have said seventy-five dollars is a lot right now, but don't miss your season of harvest. We have the opportunity to sow our first seed into the house of God in our first prayer conference. Here was God's prescription for victory for Isaac: Do not go down to Egypt--in other words, don't follow conventional wisdom, follow the word of God!!!! In scripture, Genesis 26:2 the place "Egypt" is symbolic of the world, the world system, or the devils way of doing things as opposed to God's way. This command from the Lord applied to your life situation means that you should not run to the world or the world's system for answers or for an escape. If you do, you will only reap more trouble. Remember this is the land that Israel ends up fleeing from years and years later. Exodus 5:1 And afterward Moses and Aaron went in, and told Pharaoh, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Let my people go, that they may hold a feast unto me in the wilderness. Exodus 14:13 And Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which he will shew to you to day: for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to day, ye shall see them again no more for ever. Exodus 3:21 And I will give this people favour in the sight of the Egyptians: and it shall come to pass, that, when ye go, ye shall not go empty. Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. Look at how the Lord brought the children of Israel out of bondage and hard labor in Egypt. We have to trust in the Lord. There were times that Israel did not think that what Moses was telling them was correct. There is no one who can do what God can do, so why would your seek answers from any other source?!! Sojourn In This Land!!! Genesis 26:3 simply translated means stay put--follow the word, where ever it leads!!! It is human nature to want to look for greener pastures when the circumstances we are in get uncomfortable. God's plan for your victory requires your cooperation and obedience to the Lord. God wants you to remain steadfast in your situation (not to run away) and apply God's directions to your famine. For example, if your marriage is facing a famine of love, don't run away from it as the world suggest to you. Instead apply God's word to your marriage, it will turn things around because as it says in 1 Corinthians 13:8 Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away. The Lord has promised--love never fails! Sow seed in the middle of the famine!! Genesis 26:12 Natural human wisdom would instruct a farmer not to waste his seed during a drought because the dry conditions will never produce a harvest. As it says in Isaiah 55:9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. That is exactly what God instructed Isaac to do-- sow seed in a year of famine. Isaac took action by faith, trusting in God's word to him, even though the word was contrary to man's logic. He sowed his precious seed during a drought condition and expected a harvest. Look at Isaac's faith in action. Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Genesis 26:12 reveals what happened: Then Isaac sowed seed in that land and recieved in the same year a hundred times as much as he had planted, and the Lord favored him with blessings. (Amplified Bible) Your circumstances might appear hopeless to the natural eye and the thought of pouring out time, love, energy, or money may seem like a waste to those around you. But understand that God delights to bringing forth a hundred-fold harvest in the middle of a famine for those who dare to believe His word!!! God loves to prove Himself faithful to His word through the lives of His people. He demonstrated this to the Philistines in Isaac's day (who represents those who do not know God) that the person who listens to and obeys the voice of God will be blessed. Genesis 26:12-14 tells us: "the Lord blessed him (Isaac), and the man became rich, and continued to grow richer until he became very wealthy, and the Philistines envied him." God wants to demonstrate to the world through your life that very same principle. Though at times God's way may seem contrary to your own logic, you can be assured that God's word always works and will bring a harvest-- even in a time of famine!!! Sow your seed!!! Yea and Amen!!!!
God is doing a new thing. We are walking in abundance. Sow your seed when there is a famine in the land. Are you trusting the world's way or God's way. Just in case you weren't aware, most of the difficulties we experience is from not doing things God's way. Because we think we have a better answer--it seems to make more sense to us. So is that operating in man's thoughts or faith in the Most High God?! Do what God has said. Sometimes with finances we would say, "we can't afford to tithe or give a seed." The fact is that we can not afford not to give a tithe or sow a seed. Malachi 3:7-12 7) Even from the days of your fathers ye are gone away from mine ordinances, and have not kept them. Return unto me, and I will return unto you, saith the LORD of hosts. But ye said, Wherein shall we return? 8) Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings. 9) Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation. 10) Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. 11) And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the LORD of hosts. 12) And all nations shall call you blessed: for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith the LORD of hosts. Does that explain why you have holes in your pockets? Trying to be blessed doing things the world's way is a recipe for defeat every time. As Pastor Taffe taught on yesterday, that as tithers we can go back to God and when our finances seem out of order and pull on Malachi 3:11 because we each have a part to play. We pay our tithes and offerings (sow a seed) and the Lord rebukes the devourer for our sakes. The word tells us in, Proverbs 10:22 The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it. The Lord is pouring out blessings, that are exceedingly abundant. Sow and release your faith: when there is a famine in the land; difficulties in your marriage. It is time to have faith in the word of God. Isaac took action on what God told Him. On Gospelcntro last Saturday the show focused on being obedient to God. God's way always works! Thank You for teaching us this morning, Lord. Listen, fiveamprayer to God's word, "sow in a time of famine in the land." We lift up fiveamprayer, let them know that all sufficiency is found in You, our source for everything. We lift up prayer requests, those known and unknown. The Lord will keep us in perfect peace with our minds stayed on Him. There is nothing too hard for God. We must sow a seed and release our faith. Forgive us for holding on to things. You told us this morning that there is an exchange going on, we must let things go to receive from You, to be filled by You. Like forgiving others so that we too can be forgiven. Showing that we trust You, by sowing a seed when there is a famine in the land. Thank You Lord for coming to tell us how to be increased by You--sowing a seed during a famine. 1 Chronicles 4:10 And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested. Thank You Lord for what You are doing in our lives. If He did it for Jabez, He can do it for us. If He did it for Isaac, He can do it for us. If He did it for Moses, He can do it for us. If He did it for Jesus, He can do if for us--resurrect us into a new life with Him. Thank You Lord!

We write in the precious blood: I will sow my seed and release my faith.

Welcome to the overflow...
No matter how it looks in the natural--don't eat your last seed. 1 Kings 17:15-12 12) And she said, As the LORD thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but an handful of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a cruse: and, behold, I am gathering two sticks, that I may go in and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die. 13) And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast said: but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son. 14) For thus saith the LORD God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that the LORD sendeth rain upon the earth. 15) And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, did eat many days. The widow woman, sowed a seed while in the mist of a famine. The cake that she makes for Elijah was her last in the natural, yet her obedience fed her whole house for many days. Sow your seed and release your faith. All you need is mustard seed faith. It's harvest time--sow your seed and release your faith. Fiveamprayer, we must confess, "abundance is God's will for me and I will not settle for anything less!" Fiveamprayer, we get up early seeking a word from God--what is the good and right way. In so doing we shall have what it says in, Matthew 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. We must have seed in the ground to produce a harvest. Sow your seed and release your faith: for your marriages, for your businesses, for those looking for a job. Thank You for Your peaceful presence this morning Lord. He came that we would have life more abundantly. "Trust Me," says the Lord, 'I will bring it to pass." Luke 6:38 Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again. Fiveamprayer, you can't beat God at giving, no matter how hard you try! We receive Your word, God. Thank You for teaching us! To God be the glory! Somebody shout increase, overflow, overabundance and overplus! Say the prayer of Jabez today. Have a blessed day.

I Chose You.

Isaiah 43:10; Matthew 20:16; 1 Samuel 3:8-11; Matthew 11:15; John 6:44; Ephesians 1:4-6; Philippians 1:6, 2:12, 2:13; Jeremiah 1:5; Philippians 3:14; 1 Chronicles 28:9; 2 Timothy 1:9;1 Chronicles 4:10

We are walking in today: I Chose You.

Isaiah 43:10 Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me. God anointed us for battle, because we are chosen by God, just like David. Matthew 20:16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen. We must truly began to understand the word of God and walk in it today. God chose Abraham, Moses, the children of Israel, Joshua, Jeremiah, Mary, and Fiveamprayer, just to name a few of the selected ones by God. I don't know if you remember last year, God had us to walk in, The Select Few. In this time and season, He always confirms His word, "I chose Fiveamprayer." This parable from Matthew 20:16, does not mean that God calls a lot of people, picks over them, and keeps only a few. If that were true, the middle of the parable would have no meaning. It means that God calls everyone and gives them the power to respond--but to be chosen, we must respond to the call, using the power that God gave us for that purpose. When we made the commitment on Wednesday, we answered the call to be anointed and chosen by God. 1 Samuel 3:8-11 8) And the LORD called Samuel again the third time. And he arose and went to Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou didst call me. And Eli perceived that the LORD had called the child. 9) Therefore Eli said unto Samuel, Go, lie down: and it shall be, if he call thee, that thou shalt say, Speak, LORD; for thy servant heareth. So Samuel went and lay down in his place. 10) And the LORD came, and stood, and called as at other times, Samuel, Samuel. Then Samuel answered, Speak; for thy servant heareth. 11) And the LORD said to Samuel, Behold, I will do a thing in Israel, at which both the ears of every one that heareth it shall tingle. Just being called doesn't mean you are chosen; you have to respond appropriately in your faith and conduct and then you are chosen. Many people hear the call of God which comes through His revelation of Himself through two things--the creation and the conscience within us. But only the "Few" will respond because they are the ones who are truly hearing. Jesus said in, Matthew 11:15 He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. Many are called or invited into the kingdom, but none are able to come on their own. God must draw the hearts of those whom come; otherwise they will not. John 6:44 No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day. Ephesians 1:4-6 4) According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: 5) Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, 6) To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved. How do we know if we are among the few that have ears to hear? By responding to the call. Assurance of this certain call, this chosen call, is from the Holy Spirit. Consider Philippians 1:6 which says, Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ, be confident of this, that He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion--until the day of Christ Jesus. Therefore, Fiveamprayer, as Paul wrote to the Philippians 2:12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. We must continue to work out our salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in us to will and to act according to His good purpose. Philippians 2:13 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure. If we listen with our spiritual ears and respond to the invitation, there will be fear and trembling in our souls as we recognize that it was God's work in us that caused our salvation. 2 Samuel 22:50-51 50) Therefore I will give thanks unto thee, O LORD, among the heathen, and I will sing praises unto thy name. 51) He is the tower of salvation for his king: and sheweth mercy to his anointed, unto David, and to his seed for evermore. Amen!!!
I don't know about you this morning, but I thought that yesterday was the cream of the crop, when God anointed us. Then He comes back today with, I Chose You. When God has plans, they come to pass. He is doing a new thing. That is why we can say, "no weapon formed against us shall prosper." That is why we can say, "we are walking in our promised land taking new territory." We are chosen. We serve a God that will never leave nor forsake us. The devil will try to rise up to cast doubt and fear--fiveamprayer protect your hearing!! God is speaking to us so we must make sure that His voice is getting through. As scriptures says, Jeremiah 1:5 Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. We are chosen. He chose us because we would stand no matter what. We are chosen out of all. We recommitted ourselves yesterday to God and He returns with choosing us. Thank You God. Praise Your name! We shall bless the Lord at all times! Having done all to stand, we can say not our will but Your will be done. It is all for His glory, we shall stand through hell, fire and high water. We will go through the fire, we are not gonna give up or back down. Fiveamprayer is walking by faith and not by sight. Let us follow Paul's example, Philippians 3:14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. We get up every morning sacrificing, at 5 am, holding on to the word of God--not man. There is no fear or doubt. We hear from Him, because He has chosen us. Nothing can come against us. When walking with Him, you will hear from Him. Seek Him while He may be found as David tells the people in, 1 Chronicles 28:9 And thou, Solomon my son, know thou the God of thy father, and serve him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind: for the LORD searcheth all hearts, and understandeth all the imaginations of the thoughts: if thou seek him, he will be found of thee; but if thou forsake him, he will cast thee off for ever. Call Him, fiveamprayer, He is waiting to hear from you. He will show up in the scriptures, or He will send someone to speak to you. When you are chosen, God goes before you to make the crooked places straight. The devil does not want us to understand and know our identity, the Lord has given us power to trample all over him. Thank You Lord for setting us apart. We are God's chosen, and have made a new commitment to Him. We have all power and authority over the devil and his tricks. As Pastor Taffe said, don't be in doubt--speak God's word, take authority over the situation. It is the power that we receive through Christ. We can do all things through Christ which strengthens us. There is nothing too hard for God. With man things are impossible, with God all things are possible. We are anointed for battle. God's chosen one. We will continue on in this race, telling, "satan to get behind me, I am in the chosen." No weapon that is formed against us shall prosper. We can tell the winds in our life, "peace be still." Stand still and see the salvation of the Lord. This is the proper response of God's chosen. He has chosen us and anointed us for battle. God has anointed fiveamprayer and chosen us. This all started two years ago and I told God that no one is gonna get up at 5 am. I was like Elizabeth, I laughed. Now look at what God has done, there are people getting up at 4am in California! There is nothing too hard for our God! That is why this prayer conference, the first of it's kind, will be such a mighty move of God! No matter what the world is going through--fiveamprayer is walking in abundance. Line up with the word, speak His word over your situation and seek His voice. Walk in your abundant life--God has chosen us. Let he who has ears,to hear, let him hear. We were anointed on yesterday, now chosen--don't worry we win every time!! As Pastor Thomas says, "I always win!" We are more than conquerors, more than overcomers. Many are called but few are chosen. We receive brand new mercies every morning. Hallelujah! We lift up fiveamprayer, Lord let them know that fiveamprayer, was chosen before we were born. We lift up prayer requests, let them know that we are chosen by You, Lord. 2 Timothy 1:9 Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began. We ask for forgiveness, sometimes we act like we don't know who our Father is. Thank You for forgiving us with no condemnation, Lord. All sufficiency lies in You Lord, our provider.

We write in the precious blood: 1 Chronicles 4:10 And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.

Welcome to the overflow...
Jabez was chosen by God. Fiveamprayer is chosen by God. We must ask, seek and knock on the door. He makes a way for us, out of no way--for His chosen. There is no impossible thing for our all powerful God! We can do all things through Christ which strengthens us. We can tell the world, "we are chosen by God." So we don't experience the same things that the world is going through. "What recession?! I serve a God who provides all of my needs! There is no lack, nothing missing or broken." Thank You Lord! Remember, He already told us He has put a shield on us and He is covering our thoughts. What more can we want?! Then today--chosen! Wow God, You are so amazing!!! No one but,You can do this!! You have to walk in this one all weekend. Encourage yourself, you are chosen. No room for depression or lack. We must stay in this race, continue until the end as God's chosen. We have joy unspeakable and peace that surpasses all understanding because we are God's chosen. Tell someone today about the God you serve. Have a blessed day!
