For Such a Time as This

Yesterday I woke up with Esther on my mind, the evil people who surrounded the king, & Mordecai, and felt very impressed by the Lord I was supposed to pray Scripture directly from Esther over the USA (I love praying Scripture over people and situations, IE Lord, I ask You to renew the youth of ____________'s lungs and crown ______ with loving kindness and compassion). Then I wondered if I was not hearing Him correctly. That morning I received an e-mail from a friend which mentioned Esther. Later, I received an e-mail from Lifeway and guess what, it was an advertisement with a trailer about Beth Moore's Esther study. I attended the study last year in Houston.

Don't be surprised when you receive confirmation from the Lord when you are unsure if you heard Him correctly. Many times I ask for confirmation. I have gone off 1/2 cocked enough times in my life to last the rest of my lifetime as well as several of your lifetimes. I don't want to do it anymore. I want to operate in His timing.

Have a blessed day ladies. Time to get in the Word.

I have a couple of big things I am seeking His direction in. I want Him to audibly tell me, but I am asking respectfully for several confirmations, for this hard head. Too many times, I have jumped off, not asked, and gotten myself into a mess, and worse, not walked in His Will for my life. Good thoughts for me to reflect on this day. Love, Annette

I often say that I wish God put things in blinking lights...but I'm not sure I wouldn't question it if he did. However, I love receiving confirmation from the Lord about paths that I am to follow. Enjoy your day, sister!

love,

Joel Rosenberg & Ezekiel 38-39

I wanted to share a little info compiled by author Joel Rosenberg concerning a few chapters from the book of Ezekiel. This has caused me to wonder since Iraq is in such a mess; if that's why it is not listed as a country which attacks Israel. Revelation 18 goes on to say: 2With a mighty voice he shouted: "Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great! She has become a home for demons and a haunt for every evil spirit,a haunt for every unclean and detestable bird. 3For all the nations have drunk the maddening wine of her adulteries. The kings of the earth committed adultery with her, and the merchants of the earth grew rich from her excessive luxuries." If Iraq becomes a land of such rich excesses, could it be 1 of the only major oil producers left? (This is food for thought on my part.) In a moment, I will walk you through the prophecies step-by-step. But first, let me note that the predictions found in Ezekiel chapters 36 & 37 have already come true. These are the famous ...
