“We all want change to happen and take place in our lives..we all wanna move forward with the Lord and do great things with Him and for Him..Amen..but a lot of times we need to have a heart check..Amen..and I mean we need to know that God is a God of restoration..Amen..but also God is a God of knowing that you have changed..and that you have repented..Amen..for its funny to me that He does restore unto us everything that has been taken..when we get to a place of understanding that if we do this..then God will do that..Amen..not for that fact that we work to receive anything from the Lord..its just for the fact of knowing that we are obedient to the Lord and His gentle and kind voice as He speaks to us..Amen..because if God can’t trust us to listen to Him..then how can we move forward and do great things with Him?..Amen..for in the book of Joel the Lord tells His children..to turn to Him with all of their heart..with fasting and weeping and mourning..Amen..He says to them rent your heart..Amen..in other words pour out your heart before Him..give Him everything..Amen..for it says that God is gracious..merciful..slow to anger..and He is of great kindness..Joel 2:12-13..Amen..for as well in the book of Deuteronomy it speaks to us about blessings and the curses of either being obedient or rather being disobedient to the Lord and what He is asking from us..Deuteronomy 28:1-21..Amen..and yeah no one likes to hear that..its not always peaches and cream when it comes to the Lord and His word and what He says..because this is the thing what God says is truth..Amen..and He never changes His word or what He says..and He never compromises what He has spoken..He isn’t confused about what He has said..He is not man that He would ever lie to us..so we wanna do great things..as I say we wanna move forward and what not..well, it takes obedience..it takes faithfulness..and it takes listening to the leading and the guidance of the holy spirit of God on you and your life..Amen..because when you truly want God more so than your sin..and your life that you, yourself are choosing to live..then you will be and you will have a rent heart..you will pour your heart out before the Lord and give Him everything..you’ll stop playing around with it all..and you will get serious..Amen..you’ll get sick and tired of being sick and tired..and you’ll be sick and tired of going around that same ole mountain again and again..Amen!”

“Because doing the same things you have always done..gets you the same results..Amen..so what is your call of God on you and your life?..what is the thing that you wanna be doing for the Lord?..what are you stirred up about?..what gets you excited?..what has God our Father placed in you that only you have?..Amen..and know that it is a gift..Amen..it isn’t anything that we have done ourselves..Amen..anything and everything we have comes from our Father in heaven..Amen..and we are here for a short time..and not for ourselves..but we are here for the Lord..and to do His will..Amen..for He has gifted you with something great..Amen..and if you know it..well, I have to ask what are you doing with it?..Amen..what are you doing to make it happen?..Amen..because only we can work it out with the Lord..through our prayer lives..through giving Him it all..and pleasing Him with every step it is that we take..Amen..again our hearts should be as the Lord Jesus’ heart was..for He said I am about my Fathers business..Luke 2:49..Amen..and are we truly about our Fathers business?..or our own?..Amen..because walking with God is listening to Him first..it is pleasing Him above all else..and it is being mindful of Him in our lives..knowing that He is always with us..we don’t get to lie to the Lord..Amen..we don’t get to take advantage of the Lord..Amen..we can do all of this to people..but not God..He sees us and He knows us..so when we get serious in our lives and our walk..believe you me..God will step in and get serious right back with us..Amen..so again..pour out of your heart..be still and listen..and follow through with every step and every act of obedience knowing that all of Gods blessings and goodness and everything stolen will be restored to you..and your life..Joel 2:25-27..Amen..for when we do our part..God always does His..Amen..for those that are obedient shall eat the good of the land..Amen..and I pray we all are eating the good of the land walking hand in hand with our Father..King Jesus..as we go along our day and go along in our lives..Amen..sharing and spreading the gospel as we journey and travel together..for it is in His name, Jesus’ name, that I do ask and pray..Amen and Amen..Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi ❤
