Clap, Clap, Clap Your Hands Together!




"So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.  Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to the Lord for a name, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off." - Isaiah 55:11-13

Dear Friends,
As I was driving through the city today I was in awe as I studied the majestic beauty of the trees lining the streets.  As I stopped at each red light there appeared to be a tree whispering: "Look at me Stephanie I am having a great day."  Wow, if trees could talk!  It was then that the  Holy Spirit brought the verse in Isaiah 55:12 to mind: 

"For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace, the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands."

Now talk about a visual.  I looked at the trees and it seemed as though there was some "sure enough" clapping going on.  
The point is Christian Friends, all of nature obeys the voice of God.  The contrary beings are "us humans".  Well, the clapping trees caused me great joy today.  I felt more at peace than I have in a number of weeks. 

 I did not witness any physical mountains singing but I felt some spiritual mountains getting their praise on as I put them on notice. They could come down willingly  or by faith I was going  into "mountain moving mode."  

If you apply faith to your mountains I declare they will get in line with God's program.  How do I know?  God's word does not go out void!

There is no mountain that will be allowed to stand in the way of God's will for your life.  Well,  I praise God for the faithfulness of the hand waving, hand clapping trees. I looked to the hills and in the trees God sent me help to go on a little further...one day at a time.  

Go on clap your hands! Praise the Lord!  Now don't you feel better? 

in Christ,
Sis. Stephanie

My, My, My

  Luke 1:46b “My soul doth magnify the Lord,” My, my, my Such were my thoughts this morning as I looked out of my window at the sunrise. The Lord in His Majestic power has ordered another day. Waking up with the ability to see, to hear, and to speak. Graced with mercy to walk and talk. The Lord continues to bless and to keep. I did not wake up without aches and pains. Carefree and without challenges is not an entry on my schedule. Yet, my soul doth magnify the Lord. The Lord has given me another day to live another opportunity to serve. My, my, my.  God bless.🌸✨  In Christ, Sis. Stephanie

Just a Moment

  1 Corinthians 15:52   “In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.” A moment. Just a minute. Things happen. Situations change. Here one minute and gone the next.  So the saying goes. Moments. They mater. While we have time… Take a second. Press pause. Stop.  Consider. Right now.  This moment. Counts…⏰ God bless.🌸✨  In Christ, Sis. Stephanie

I’ll Go With You

  Isaiah 41:10   “Fear thou not; for I  am  with thee: be not dismayed; for I  am  thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.” “Jesus said if you go I’ll go with you.” Butterflies in my stomach  A racing heart  I do not want to attend the meeting  I wish I could cancel the appointment  I don’t want to talk about it Over “it” I don’t think I can do this  BUT GOD He reminds me that of course, I cannot accomplish even the most mundane tasks on my own  He assures me day by day that He is with me  He builds me up He orders my steps  He speaks peace to my soul  He renews my heart  Do not be afraid  You belong to Me I’ve got you I am holding you in My mighty hands  Go! I will go with you. God bless.🌸✨  In Christ, Sis. Stephanie
