Isaiah 54:2-5
"Enlarge the place of your tent, stretch your tent curtains wide, do not hold back; lengthen your cords, strengthen your stakes. 5 For your Maker is your husband— the LORD Almighty is his name— the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer; he is called the God of all the earth. (NIV) My Way-Maker Is My Redeemer!

He doesn't choose you because you're so full of good stuff. He chooses you and then He fills you with all the good stuff. So you don't have to have what it takes if you know the one who can give you more than enough to do everything.

Unrealistic Optimism! By Don Finto
I am an unrealistic optimist and intend to stay that way! As John Acuff used to say, "I've read the end of the book! We win!"
"Darkness covers the earth and thick darkness is over the peoples, but the LORD rises upon you and his glory appears over you," Isaiah said to Israel over 2700 years ago (Isa. 60:2). Isaiah not only saw conditions arising in his day, but he was peering into the future when the deepest darkness of all time would engulf the earth, but the people of God would shine like the stars of the heavens (see Daniel 12:3, 10 and Matthew 13:43) in the midst of the wickedness.
The day Isaiah predicted is upon us. Juergen Buehler, Executive Director of International Christian Embassy in Jerusalem, recently wrote an article that speaks of some of the light shining through the darkness of the Arab world:
"Some 70,000 Egyptian Christians gathered recently for a joyous outdoor worship service... Iran's underground churches are currently experiencing an annual growth of 20% - the highest rate worldwide, followed by Afghanistan at 16%... An Algerian pastor... reports that today the Evangelical churches in his country can claim more than 200,000 members... Libya also holds surprises... the spiritual climate in Libya has changed significantly since Ghadaffi's fall... not enough Bibles for those seeking them... A Moroccan Church is emerging and accelerating in growth and maturity... New believers [in Tunisia] have increased and new church groups have come into being over the past few years... In Jordan, the evangelical Church is experiencing encouraging growth, doubling from 1995 to 2010... Similar reports are emerging from Syria and Lebanon... One of the most sustained revivals is taking place in Indonesia which has the world's largest Muslim population but is now around 30% Christian..."
Paul foresaw our day. "How much greater riches [for the whole world] will their [Israel's] fullness bring" (Rom. 11:12). More Jewish people have come to faith in the last few years than in all the centuries previous. The "greater riches" world revival is increasing.
Look beyond the darkness. Look at the light. Pray in the salvation and transformation of Israel and the nations. Agree with God's purposes for our day. Do not be discouraged. Be filled with hope. Don Finto

A Seasoned Servant Of God Has Encouraged Me Today
Pastor Elliott
John 16:7
But I tell you the truth: It is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Counselor will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.
Dear Bob and Kim,
I awoke at 2:58 this morning thinking over the past day. It can be lonely at 3 am unless someone is with you. I am so blessed that I have Polly. But she is asleep. I am not alone, though. The Lord is awake at 3 am. He is waiting for me to arise and write what He tells me to write. I was thinking that there have been times over the years when I have felt very, very alone. Some of the loneliest times were when I was surrounded by people. Have you ever experienced that? You can actually be surrounded by people and still feel terribly alone.
Some of the greatest works in music, literature, poetry and art have come from artists who suffered through loneliness. Jesus knew that we would be overcome by a loneliness that could lead to despair and depression. He also knew that His people would and could emerge from this mental state with a new spiritual power. No, not by our own strength or power, but something supernatural. The Lord sent us a Counselor, a Comforter, a Teacher - His Holy Spirit.
Since I surrendered to the Lord fifteen years ago and started my journey, I have grown in spirit and truth only by His grace and the power of the Holy Spirit. It has been in those valleys of despair and loneliness that He came to me. He was and is my Comforter, my Counselor, and my Teacher. He is still teaching me the power of that Name above all names.
Do you ever find yourself struggling to make sense of this life? Does fear, despair, or loneliness invade your world way too often, especially when it comes to your loved ones? Jesus said, "I will send Him (His Spirit) to you." You will be stronger on the other side of this trial for the glory of God.
He will teach you so that you may teach others and know better how to pray for them. Pastor Elliott

You hit the nail on the thorn! My thorn is loneliness! I have had this thorn for over 30 years. God has not taken it from me. My thorn is loneliness! I can't tell you how much it humbles me as I lay it at the foot of the cross, because it a yoke too heavy for me to bear. I cry out to God to help me "grow through" it. I have stopped asking Him to take it away, because as I look back with eyes of "heavenly hindsight", the thorn of loneliness has kept me humbly and desperately seeking God and in those places of distressed surrender, was the Holy Ground where I heard His Voice with amazing clarity. As a young Christian, the thorn of loneliness pressed me to places of self despair, where all I could think about was giving up as I struggled very hard to bear the burden of loneliness and failed. I wanted to die and I thought about ways to take my life, to end the struggle. As a mature believer, God has taught me that trying to do something in my own strength is not the way of truth, He has shown me at the intersection of my greatest weakness is the cross, the way, the truth and powerful resurrected life of Jesus. It is there I hand over my loneliness, to the ONE Who bore it for me and defeated it for me. I die to myself by no longer trying in my flesh, but by training-discipling my spirit with the Word of God, until my inner personality is transformed by the salvation in me, that works itself out through my spiritual sacrifice of all things me. Trying to bear loneliness in my own strength, did not transform me, it deformed my spiritual destiny with a human condition. Trying to "do" something is not transforming, it changes nothing. Independence from God will lead to pain. Independence from God leads to sin and if I sin, I choose to suffer! Training and being disciplined by exercising my spirit in the truth of God, is transforming and it changes the facade of my loneliness from a human condition to a spiritual purpose that eventually transcribes into divine appointment. The result of the thorn of loneliness is either going to be a human reaction to be pitied or a Kingdom response to be purposeful! The Thorn of loneliness is painful, but this pain does not back me into suicidal thoughts anymore, I don't follow my human condition, I follow after my future and forever hope that is not here, but in the Kingdom of God. To me Followship is not being without a thorn in my flesh, not being without the pain of loneliness, it is being found in Jesus, clinging tightly to His Love and digging my roots deeper in His Kingdom. This particular season of my life, the loneliness is the worst I have ever encountered, but Jesus is greater still and is simply-significantly enough for me. God moved us suddenly here, we have not found a church, we have no friends yet, we have no open door for ministry yet and no tangible Kingdom purpose for being here, so we wait, not wondering why we are here, but being found in God from every moment to every choice, even though our flesh is very uncomfortable. I am either going to try on my own to win over my loneliness, or I am going to train with God until He transforms me from the inside out to step into the flow of His Perfect Purpose for a time such as this one. This is my choice to stop my human trying and start my spiritual training! The harder I "try" to deal with the loneliness the more it takes over me! The more I train my spirit in the Word, the lighter the yoke of loneliness is. Followship is a choice that doesn't take away my thorn in the flesh, but adjusts the yoke to a Kingdom fit, where God bears the weight of it! Oh My goodness, I did not mean to chatter on… sorry! Have a great Monday!

Recession Proof Kingdom
http://www.wisdomhuntersdevotional.com/View.aspx?date=03/01/2012%2000:00:00
"Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven." Matthew 6:9-10
The Kingdom of God is recession proof, because the economy of God is based on the character of God. His commerce is not measured by man's GDP (Gross Domestic Product), but by God's Divine Provision. As we pray, "Your kingdom come", our concern with productivity will be surpassed by the acceleration of His kingdom. God gains momentum, as man gets his eye off his earthly kingdom and onto the Kingdom of Heaven. Economic decline and distress are opportunities for God's global advancement. Boyd Bailey
Indeed, Christ's influence is counter-intuitive to a culture caught up in commerce, only to see its net worth evaporate into the thin air of materialism. Our fiscal slowdown is a prime time for the Lord's Prayer to be answered, as it speeds up His kingdom's progress. The gospel of Christ goes forth in prosperous periods, but it is especially appealing during difficult days. Don't waste a recession; it is reason to reach out and represent Jesus well.
"Now therefore, our God, the great God, mighty and awesome, who keeps his covenant of love, do not let all this hardship seem trifling in your eyes—the hardship that has come on us, on our kings and leaders, on our priests and prophets, on our ancestors and all your people, from the days of the kings of Assyria until today." Nehemiah 9:32
Recessionary days are the right time for you to make things right in relationships. Reach out to those who, for whatever reason, are disconnected and distant. They may have been humbled by horrific financial failings, but now they are open to forgiveness and faith. Be the hands and feet of Jesus; go to them with a listening ear and caring heart. Christians were created to care during seasons of suffering. Perhaps you invite a loved one to live in your home. Consider a Bible study at work over lunch, to study God's perspective in the wise management of money.
Feed the poor, care for the sick, connect the unemployed, be a generous giver, and all the while share Christ's gospel of repentance and faith. Use this time of discomfort to bring comfort, and pray for those in pain to be healed. Above all else, invite and introduce to Jesus, those who have a fresh interest in heaven's agenda. The Kingdom of God is robust, reassuring, and resourceful during recessionary days. Thus, reach out to the weary for rest.
"Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand" (Matthew 3:2, NASB).
Who has been displaced and discouraged in economic down times that I can reach out to on Christ's behalf?

What warning do I need to heed from the Lord and those who love me? Where the Lord warns—wisdom prepares. Boyd Bailey
My Thoughts About This = Miraculous Musings! J
For us God's Divine Provision from day to day is the measure of our recession, a difficult economic time means a greater Kingdom gain. More of God, less of us! We need God! We recognize that need more when our finances are unmanageable. God is our Provider, we turn to HIM out of crisis and He uses our crises to build in us a strong faith, a tested trust!
Do not underestimate God's wisdom in taking you through this laborious and sometimes painful process. It will be worth the wait because it is the process that is preparing you for His next steps. If you rush through the process you may miss God's best. Boyd Bailey
Holy Spirit Inspired…. He speaks, I listen and obey… Thank you for teaching Me!
Galatians 1:12 (NLT) I received my message from no human source, and no
one taught me. Instead, I received it by direct revelation from Jesus Christ.
Isaiah 54
The Future Glory of Zion
1 "Sing, O barren woman, you who never bore a child; burst into song, shout for joy, you who were never in labor; because more are the children of the desolate woman than of her who has a husband," says the LORD.
2 "Enlarge the place of your tent, stretch your tent curtains wide, do not hold back; lengthen your cords, strengthen your stakes.
3 For you will spread out to the right and to the left; your descendants will dispossess nations and settle in their desolate cities.
4 "Do not be afraid; you will not suffer shame. Do not fear disgrace; you will not be humiliated. You will forget the shame of your youth and remember no more the reproach of your widowhood.
5 For your Maker is your husband— the LORD Almighty is his name— the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer; he is called the God of all the earth.
6 The LORD will call you back as if you were a wife deserted and distressed in spirit— a wife who married young, only to be rejected," says your God.
7 "For a brief moment I abandoned you, but with deep compassion I will bring you back.
8 In a surge of anger I hid my face from you for a moment, but with everlasting kindness I will have compassion on you," says the LORD your Redeemer.
9 "To me this is like the days of Noah, when I swore that the waters of Noah would never again cover the earth. So now I have sworn not to be angry with you, never to rebuke you again.
10 Though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed, yet my unfailing love for you will not be shaken nor my covenant of peace be removed," says the LORD, who has compassion on you.
11 "O afflicted city, lashed by storms and not comforted, I will build you with stones of turquoise, [a] your foundations with sapphires. [b]
12 I will make your battlements of rubies, your gates of sparkling jewels, and all your walls of precious stones.
13 All your sons will be taught by the LORD, and great will be your children's peace.
14 In righteousness you will be established: Tyranny will be far from you; you will have nothing to fear. Terror will be far removed; it will not come near you.
15 If anyone does attack you, it will not be my doing; whoever attacks you will surrender to you.
16 "See, it is I who created the blacksmith who fans the coals into flame and forges a weapon fit for its work. And it is I who have created the destroyer o work havoc;
17 no weapon forged against you will prevail, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and this is their vindication from me," declares the LORD.

You don't truly appreciate anything you did not work hard to get! Joyce Meyer
Be glad for the day of small beginnings, it is here where we grow up the most!
The impatience of our flesh cries out to God: Are we there yet? Sometimes we don't wait to "grow through" with God, we impulsively go on our own… then…. OUCH!
Growing through transition is the most painful right before the breakthrough is going to happen
Don't ask only what the wise thing to do is, but also what is the right thing to do! Andy Stanley
God works on the law of gradual growth.
Emotions help you get started in doing something new and as you continue and the emotions run their course, you will have to decide if you are going to "grow through" to the finish. http://kimberlymac.blogspot.com Joyce Meyer TV Program Notes
