HeartTOHeart

Why are we bullying each other. Why are we hurting, defaming and emotionally throwing up anger, bitterness, hate and accusation at each other? We are the same. Human beings, get a grip, we have the same common denominator. We were ALL made in the Image of our Creator. We are ALL loved by God. We ALL Matter! Time to change it up! Genesis 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him;male and female he created them. Solomon 2:23: For God created man to be immortal, and made him to be an image of his own eternity. The righteous, because they are made in the image of God, can rest in the full hope of eternal life.

I yield my life to the Lordship of Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit of God is my navigator. God knows my heart, He hears my thoughts, and He knows every motive behind my actions. God knows me best and loves me most. I submit my life wholly-holy to Jesus Christ, He is my identity, He is the only One, Who shapes my life, directs my life, and instructs me in the day to day living out of my life issues. I can absolutely positively state I give no permission to anyone else to shape or control my destiny. You will not restrict me or control me, I belong to God, therefore I give no human being power over me. I position myself underneath the authority and leadership of God’s love, and He sets godly authority over my life. The banner over me, over my life is God, His kingdom and His love. No, human being has permission to control my speech, my action, or any of my thoughts. I will obey God from every moment to every choice, I will put God first and serve His kingdom. My destiny is found in the life of Jesus Christ, I have a future, and a hope that is not in this world. No one can take freedom from me, this liberty Jesus Christ gave His life for me to have, it is my inalienable right to live freely. Because of my love for God, because my life has been freely given to Him, I will become a person of integrity, and if you look at my life in heavenly hindsight, my life will reflect, a moment to choice decision to follow, Jesus, to mirror His way, truth and life is my hearts desire. I am flesh, I have a human condition that needs to have self-control. There will be times where I will not make the godly choice, I am not perfect, but I am perfectly loved by God, who will convict me, of wrong doing, will teach me, correct the crooked places in my heart, and I will grow through my life being transformed by His Holy Spirit, positioned under the Rulership of His love.

#1MinuteEncouragement Do you need strength to handle your worldly viewpoint? Is it ugly, scary and undesirable? Is your faith being battered by doubt and fear? Do you have despair and hopelessness knocking on the door of your heart? Do you know Jesus? He knocks on the door of our heart today. We must let Him in. He is the beauty in life that is so very worth knowing. Is the ugliness of the human condition and the stank of human actions filling your soul with unbearable living? There is hope for your hopelessness. Beauty exists and it exists in the person of Jesus Christ. Today, we collectively, breathe in Jesus, into our hearts, into our souls, receiving Him and the renewing strength of His hope, the reviving light of His joy. Today we choose to focus on the forever ending we have been promised by our Finisher, Jesus, Who will finish what He started and finish well for us, for our good and for His glory. Breathe, Just Breathe In The Presence Of God Today.

Distraction – Disappointment – Chaos. Anyone feeling these three things? I sure am. We need to stay on mission with God. Don’t underestimate the power of evil in times such as these. We can’t fight this evil in play right now, the battle is God’s. Trust God.

#1MinuteEncouragement People serving no power higher than self are currently seeking power in whatever way they can, stepping all over everyone, cheating, defrauding deplorably, all to grab illegitimate authority that they can’t even begin to handle in their foolish human condition, without creating a supremacy conundrum. No Problem! Our God is the only real Supremacy and He’s got this mess, He is working in the unseen, and our messy human mess, it is soon to be His message of evil to good and devastation to glory.

Jesus changed our lives through meekness and humility. How odd is that? It wasn’t pride, it wasn’t self-righteousness, it wasn’t someone who thought they knew it all, it wasn’t a deceiver, cheater, or someone committing fraud, nor was it a powerful kingship born an elite way. Our Redeemer was a vulnerable tiny baby born in Bethlehem in a stable. Our Deliverer was Jesus, with a kind servant’s heart who ushered in the most powerful transformation ever known to mankind. Death To Life. Jesus changed it up and He still transforms us on this day. Look To Jesus, The Christmas Savior. He Can, He Will, Transform You From Death To A Forever Life. There is no other that can change it up like Jesus.

Senseless! Who wins the strife filled argument? The Two Edged Sword, God’s Word, It Is For Us, To Change Us, Through Its Living Power. We don’t use the word to stab others, this is not how love wins. Jesus is the Word, His way is love, His Rulership is love. When you speak, lead with love, love like the power of the cross of Jesus portrays. Relationship-Truth In Love.

No evil weapon formed against us will prosper. God said it. He will accomplish it. I believe God will prevail over this prevalent evil of our time. I believe in God, I believe God. The reality of truth is this: Over all of time, God has never allowed evil, which has formed against His people to flourish. The fires of evil weaponry may burn hot, but they flame out and do not destroy. The inner damage intended by evil, never makes it to the core of our being, we remain in Christ Jesus, He is our hope, He is our peace, He is our forever allegiance of our faith. The status of our inner spiritual core is strong, protected, guarded by Gods’ Word. We walk by faith, knowing that in these days, even with all the weaponry of the illegitimate authority of human foolishness, pointed toward us, we hold the line of faith. Linking our shields of faith with each other, we know this evil will not prevail against us as we together march forward in prayer, belief, trust and hope in God. God will not forsake us to the wiles of our enemy. Our God, famous in war time strategy and always victorious against the enemy, He will prevail. This battle of evil in this generation, it is God’s battle. Hope in Him. Let be, be still and know He is God. #DigDeeper https://thebridegroomscafe.com/focus/

God Still Speaks~ Listen Up ~ Closely ~ Heart To Heart It is windy, loud and in our face, this is our current cultural chaos. How are we supposed to hear God? We can’t even hear ourselves think! There is so much chaos swirling around us, but God has not stop speaking, He has not stopped navigating us. If we slow down, if we stop trying to fix things, if we yield to God, listen up closely, heart to heart, we can hear Him, that still small, miraculous voice that is heard in the winds of our time. God still speaks. Open the Bible, sit with Him, let His Holy Spirit speak powerfully through His Word. Speak the name of Jesus, He is the disrupter of Chaos, He brings peace into the middle of our storms. Listen up to the Prophets of our time, He is speaking through them, navigating us by His Word. He has not stop speaking, we have stopped listening closely, we are hard of hearing. God still speaks. Get heart to heart with Him, listen closely for that still small voice of God. Think of it this way, this video has a lot of wind in it, but if you want to hear my voice, you listen in closely and you can hear it in the wind, God is in the storm, He has not left us, His voice is in the wind, listen up closely, God is still speaking, He is never not speaking, He is never not navigating us. When we want to hear, we listen up closely. Deception of our time is throughout the all of our lives. Our national media lies, our own corrupted government officials are craftily designing the stealing of our freedom, and the cultural chaos of deception among us all is like the angry sea, it is loud, it is crashing onto the shores of our lives, touching us all where we live in ways that are so very uncomfortable. Yet, God still speaks, still navigates, still has not left us, nor forsaken us to the way of the angry seas of our time. Maybe we need to step out of our comfort zone and listen up closely to God. God still speaks, His power is available to us. There is power in the name of Jesus, pray it up. There is power in the Word of God, pray it up. There is power in the Holy Spirit, Christ in us, the hope of glory, pray it up to Him. Listen Up Closely. There is power in the prophets He has chosen to give us the news before the news, (Julie Green Ministries) to prepare our hearts in wisdom, strength, courage and faith. God Still Speaks. Listen Up, Heart To Heart with Him, in personal, vital-vertical relationship with God. You will hear that still small voice and it will be clear, concise and revelational for times such as these. The wind whips around us, the chaos of the angry waves of our enemy crashing into the shores, all of this is so very loud, yet we can still hear the still small voice of God above it all. God Still Speaks. Human beings speak a lot of words, words, words, BUT when God speaks, things change up.

#1MinuteEncouragement Feeling Hopeless? We can’t bloom hope out of a culture of doom and gloom. It is not going to happen that way. Do you want to bloom in hope as you sit in these dark times of chaos and injustice? Listen up. We can bloom in hope! Even in the drudgery of winter storms, we can bloom in hope. God shows us this through nature. There are beautiful flowers that bloom in the harsh winter elements. How? It depends on your root system. Are you deeply rooted in God and His Kingdom? This is how you will bloom, in and out of the victory Jesus has already given you, deeply rooted in Him, focused on God and all of His Perfection and being in His Living Word. If your theology is based upon cultural say-so, you are doomed not to bloom. If your theology is living and active in a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, you are destined to bloom and it will be beautiful. God bless you Much! Bloom! #HeartTOHeart Dig Deeper: https://thebridegroomscafe.com/bloom/

Seek Truth. Don’t make decisions based on what you “think you know”. Be faithful to truth, what you know to be true, be people of truth. We pray on this day, Jesus, our Spirit of Truth, that You will speak what is true into our nation. Lord God, we commit to listen up, being navigated by You, doing what is right for our nation. We pray, asking God to lead us through all the deception, the assumptions and speculations of mediatic false frenzy. On This Day, We Pray To Be A Nation Directed By Truth. Amen.

🙏Could you not tarry one hour with me? 🙏Could you not keep watch with Me? WAKE UP! 🙏The Time Is Coming, Deception Is Upon Us, Lawlessness Is Upon Us! Get up and let’s go, for the betrayer has arrived. The sun is going down on our liberty, justice and freedom for all. Our constitution is in shambles, and justice as we knew it is dead. Pray. Watch With Jesus. 🙏 We see it all around us, the decay of the human condition, yet we ignore it. Morality in the toilet, and we don’t talk about it, we don’t talk to God about it, we don’t pray, we just get busier and we ignore the state of our nations and its peoples in shambles. We ghost the reality of truth. Without God we are not good people. People need the Lord. Come back to Jesus. One Nation Under God Indivisible With Liberty And Justice For All. Let it be so. Could you not watch with Me? Jesus! 🙏 How do we handle the state of our unions? We pretend it is not happening! We see the reality of truth, but our grief over the liberties lost, and the pain of the consequences of lawlessness, and the desecration of our freedom of our Constitution, we don’t want to faee it. We are compassion fatigued, we are asleep, we don’t want to believe what has happened to our nations in decline, so we grieve silently and sleep through it, and when we wake up, it will be too late… WAKE UP! Pray! Face The Reality Of Truth of what is happening now in our nations. Turn back to God! Without God, we are not good. Could you not tarry one hour, could you not keep watch with Jesus? The time is short, our betrayer is near. 🙏 What day of the week is it for you? For me it is Friday and all is not good, the state of our nations are not good. Good Friday for Jesus was not good except for the promise of Sunday was coming. Good Friday leaned into giving death a voice no more, resurrection was coming. Silently, before his false accusers and with his false accusations and fake judgment, he went into the night… and morning came, justice proclaimed to all generations! Where is Jesus? He’s Not Here… He has RISEN from the dead. Death has no more voice. 🙏🙏🙏 Holy Week: Maundy Thursday Jesus shares His plan, Good Friday we grieve, we sleep, we are focused on loss and not what we will gain. Sunday, Easter, we see the reality of Truth, Jesus has Risen, just as He said, we have a future and a hope.

#1MinuteEncouragement Just strolling along life with a good plan and a way to get there, when all of a sudden we are interrupted in the rudest way. Kind of like when you were watching a program on TV, really into it, and the emergency broadcasting system cuts in. Do you listen or are you too mad about the interruption?

Truth Anchors Us. Soul Battered By Waves Of Deception? As we sit in the darkness of these lawless, unjust times, it is easy to doubt what God spoke in the light. We must stay anchored in the truth, don’t let false narrative change our course to fear. Truth stands the test of times, so we can trust God in the dark when we cannot see what was spoken in the light. Truth remains. Dig Deeper: https://thebridegroomscafe.com/one-thing-remains/

#1MinuteEncouragement There is no doubt about it, this kind of life season can translate into a parched soul. A parched and weary place? Got that going on in your life season? It doesn’t have to stay that way. You can refresh your soul. Look up. God is our Oasis in the desert times of our lives.

Soul Wounds There are wounds from family members that we feel like we will never survive or get over. We don’t want to just get over them, we want to “grow through” them to healing. Anxiety and soul wounds are always interconnected. Anxiety can be triggered by a soul wound and the only ONE Who can heal your soul is Jesus Christ. I know this because He healed mine. If you have a soul wound, meet your Healer, Jesus Christ, know Him, know His healing touch. God bless ya.

#1MinuteEncouragement Got a stormy life season going on? Is everything being tossed around? Feel like the boat is going to capsize? Grab a hold of the life preserver? Remember, You have a Rescuer! He is coming!

AweGOD. Like No Other. Always. Forever. Abundant Love. We ALL Are Limitlessly Loved Inhale, just breathe…Awe-GOD! Like No Other Love. We Are Loved, Always And Forever. What an incredible, limitless love! We remind ourselves today, our Advocate is a God Who rules with a rulership of LOVE. Our Father God, our only legitimate Supremacy, Who was, is and will always be for us, is likened to a friend, Who has proven their loyalty by not holding back anything for our good, no matter the cost. Selfless Limitless Love. The supreme power of God’s love is braided with sacrifice, meekness and compassion, creating a three-strand cord which is unbreakable, able to withstand the force of every evil principality and illegitimate authority, a life-rope we can safely anchor our lives to. God’s sustaining, enduring, limitless love, it fails us not.

#1MinuteEncouragement When we realize the weight of what is going on in our nation and in our lives, we also realize that Jesus Christ is the only One Who can navigate us through the unchartered waters we find ourselves in, as evil has wreaked havoc with our circumstances. This is the best time of our lives, when we are stretched outside of our own strength and ability and find ourselves needy, and lacking the ability to fix the mess we are in. This is when looking to God, praying and asking Him for the help we need, is our best course. He is the only one who can carry our burdens and miraculously change things up. Pray for your nation. Ask God for His help. Pray It UP!

Darkness comes in like a flood, it makes our soul shiver. Deceit surrounds us on all sides causing despair to rise in our heart. Against us are the wicked hearts full of the violent trickery of dark deeds, yet, God is with us. Our shiver of fear is shut down by His Sliver of Light, the brilliance of His truth, a revelation which exposes the dark deeds of evil prevailing against right and good. God is able to defeat our enemies, so we patiently endure with faith and hope, which lights up our darkness and shatters our shiver with the reality of God’s truth and peace.

#1MinuteEncouragement I know I am distracted at times the dumbest things. A distraction followed ends up with not having a day I can say was perfect. So, it wasn’t perfect, but it probably was still a purposeful day. Yet, for sure, when I have been distracted, it definitely can still be a a meaningful day, because I can learn from it not to take that detour again!

Transitions are difficult times in life. When we are waiting for something new to happen, and we are in-between the old and the new, the enemy loves to throw in all kinds of chaos. We see it even in the life of Jesus Christ right before He went to the cross in the Garden of Gethsemane, it was a very difficult time for Him, and the men He spent so much time with throughout His earthly ministry, discipling them, loving them, teaching them, they were not there for Him in His greatest time of need. Isn’t it like that for us too? Chaos happens and everyone scatters, no help to be found. Oh for the love of the human condition, it never meets our needs. Human beings can’t meet our needs, only God can. We need to put our expectations in God, not people. God is Who Jesus taught us to turn to in the worst of soul chaos and soul agony, we turn to God. Our Father God, He never leaves us nor forsakes us, and His Holy Spirit is always Present with us and for us. We are never alone during a time of transition. God is always working in the unseen for our good and His glory. These are the two purposes of God that are part of God’s Providential Care of us… working for our good, working for His glory, and He does both well. The enemy also schemes and craftily devises stumbling blocks to keep us from the new thing God has for us. During these transitional times we need to cling to God, and dig our life roots deeper in Him and His Kingdom. The enemy of our soul will try to make it “seem” like we have hit a dead end in our times of transitions. We can get hit hard with so many road blocks during these transitional times of our life, and everything seems to fall apart, and there is much chaos. But we know, wherever chaos is, the enemy is working, yet God has not left us to the devices of our enemy. Never does, never will God forsake us in our life battles to make our way to His way, truth and life. God is never not up for the challenge of the enemy. So don’t quit on God, He will make a way, the transition from the old to the new thing in your life, it is at His direction, He started it, He will finish it. During the transitional times of our lives, we need to guard our heart diligently with the Word of God and activate our faith daily through the promises of God. We always need to remember, reminding ourselves that God has our life underneath His authority and control. Chaos makes it seem like the enemy is in control, but GOD never abdicates His authority over us, He is always in control. When it seems like the enemy puts up a “Dead End” sign, it is never so, because with God there are no dead ends. Therefore, we keep walking, and keep moving forward in followship of God. God is continually making a way in our lives, and His purposes are always in play for our good. Chaos can really stick up its ugly head in the midst of transitional times. These are the times we need to wholly-holy trust in God’s timing. God is doing something new in our lives and we will know it. The enemy will work hard to keep us from the new thing God has for us, but always remember, God wins, God finishes what He starts and He finishes well. God finishes in first place. God’s got this transitional time you find yourself in. Trust God. Completely!

God is my enough! I declare this and I want to know it deep within my heart and this means I need to know Him better. He is a mighty God, Way-Maker, powerful in all of His ways. God is everything in our all. Isaiah 43 tells us God knows us, calls us by name. It also shows that God is personal. The thought that we have so much negative in our world right now. When you hear that negative thought in your mind say: Who Said That? Because it was probably said by the enemy of our soul. If we look through the right lens, we will see God is masterfully at work in our world. If we see things through a Kingdom Perspective, instead of a worldly viewpoint we will see so much more positive than negative. Is your soul stirred up with anxiety, fear, loneliness, worry, doubt and unbelief, then your life will not be stable and you will be knocked down by the waves coming into the shore of your life. But if we anchor ourselves to God, getting to know God better, by His Word, and through our vital-vertical relationship with Him, our soul is much more stabilized and we will know that we know, without a doubt, Jesus is simply-significantly our enough for times such as these. Our Everlasting and personal God, His Holy Spirit, with us always, for us always, loving us like no other, He is our Deliverer, He is our Rock of Refuge! Knowing God better helps us to see things differently, we see much more good than bad, and we are able to trust that God is our enough in the all of our everything and know without a doubt that He has not relinquished His authority to the enemy, He is working in the unseen for our good and His glory. The best is yet to come as we realize that God has already won, and He is purposefully working out all things, heading towards a spectacular endgame. I Right now, it may not look as pretty as we would like it too, the enemy may appear to be winning some strategic battles, but we can’t go with what we see, we walk by truth and faith, not by sight, believing and trusting our Awe-GOD and giving Him the time and room to work things out in His ways, which are much higher than ours. God You are my enough. I believe in You, I believe You! Dig Deeper https://thebridegroomscafe.com/our-enough/
