🤎🖤🤎🖤🤎🖤
There are these moments………..
Moments when I am so close to the presence of God
That I can literally taste His anointing oil on my lips
Moments that bring on such longing that I wish He would take me home,
Catch me up into heaven right that moment.
Then I ponder what it will be like to feel that for eternity?!!!
Wow!!!!! ❤ ❤ ❤

This year, 2020, God is doing a new thing, in me.
Now, I know there is nothing new under the sun.
But it’s a “new” thing in me.
Last night at church we had an anointing service. 👑
Our pastors from Hillsong Phoenix were here and they were laying hands on each and every person.
People were in the aisles and no one was moving for quite a while.
I lifted my hands and made my petitions known to my Father.
Petitions and prayers of surrender and release declaring that I would do more this year.
More discipline, more humility, more surrender, more devouring of the Word, more imparting that Word to others.
More trust and freedom than I have walked in in recent years.
You see, I have been restored to my Father but I still am afraid of “the fires” of ministry with others.
The fire that makes you vulnerable.
The fire that demands transparency.
Not because I’m not willing to be transparent, but I don’t want to get hurt.
I know, after nearly 30 years of ministry, that it is inevitable and it comes with the territory.
So, I surrendered it last night.
I said , “okay, God, I’m ready.
I’m ready to join with this band of believers and serve in whatever capacity You see fit.
💞
Well, as I finished that prayer, one of the ushers motioned that our row could move forward for prayer! Yay!!
• (SIDENOTE) I know God always strategically has the person picked out for each of us for prayer and ministry. It is never by accident who lays hands on you.
So, I was ushered to one of the 8 people they had stationed for prayer.
We had never met before.
She prayed and prophesied over me, EVERYTHING I had JUST asked God for in prayer!
Every DETAIL!
I wasn’t surprised, I was overjoyed!
I laughed and said, “thank You Jesus!” as I went back to my seat.
You see, God taught me a very long time ago, you have not, because you ask not.
I asked God for desires that were of HIS heart which He had deposited into my spirit.
I agreed with Him in my prayer and through this woman, He gave me confirmation that I am doing exactly what he wants me to in this season and time of my life.
There is a lot I am putting my hands to this year and I am excited about it!
💕
It is unchartered waters for me but I am walking into the deep waters holding my Father’s hand.
And I am not afraid!!!!!

What are the dreams and visions God has given you?
Maybe you want dreams and visions!
Ask him!
He is a good father and He gives his children good gifts!
Even the Holy Spirit!!!
👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑
Luke 11:13 So if you sinful people know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those WHO ASK HIM!!!”
1 John 5:14
And this is the confidence that we have before Him: If we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.
James 1:6 “But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind.”
