The Prince of Peace is with us. His name is Jesus. There is so much peace even at the mention of His name. It is like a “Shalom” - which disrupts all the chaos around us and ushers in the peace of God. From nation to nation there is a lot of cultural confusion and chaos going on. No matter what nation you are from, you are feeling the lack of peace, it is slippery. To have peace, focus is necessary. Focus on what? Focus on Jesus, His Word, His Way, His life. If we spend time rutting our minds with the chaos of false narrative and fake reality, then we get a false front of peace which is very slippery and we can’t hold on to it. Trusting God, entrusting God with you life, giving Him total access to your life and yielding your way to His is a sure way to a lasting peace. Letting be, being still and knowing He is God is a peaceful place to be, a pleasant place amidst all the chaos surrounding us. Deception is a peace disrupter and finds its power in assumption, speculation, presupposition, rationalization. But in the presence of God’s Word, deception is shot down, it can’t stand. God’s Word stands the tests of time and is always a shelter for us in all the storms that deceptive living brings about. Our whole universe is saturated in deception in times such as these. This makes peace slippery. But, as we stand on the side of truth, speaking it, living it and loving it we will find that peace is not slippery, that it is always present where truth is ruling the atmosphere. So keep the attitude of your heart soaked in the Word of God, in the truth, and live in the reality of truth and your life will have a stable peace that does not slip away in the chaos of our culture. When truth becomes an elusive factor in our lives, when the common denominator of focus becomes chaos and deception, peace will be slippery. Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace and His Truth must be our moment to choice reality. We need to position ourselves wholly-holy aligned with what is true. Shake of the assumptions, the speculations, the opinions, the faceless presuppositions and live in the reality of truth and peace will be yours in the constant-consistent way. Peace Be With You.

God is speaking and He speaks to me a lot through His beautiful creation. He speaks hope, encouragement and peace through the beauty of His Creation. Sit - Look- Hear God through the beautiful creation all around us. When I have a chaotic day and chaos has filled my soul, I can sit by a beautiful lake and hear the peace of God, peace that disrupts my chaos and enters Shalom into my soul. Yes God speaks through the beautiful things He created. There is something about water, being near a lake, a beach or a mountain stream that always speaks peace to me. God said in the Psalms: Oh my people listen to Me. Listen to me in the sunrise, listen to me in the sunset. I hear Him in both those things. I hear God as I see the light glimmering on a lake, I know He is dancing joy upon my soul, light bringing glory to my spirit. I do hear God in the beauty all around me? Do you? Do you see and hear God in creation, and know that He is God, that He is speaking to us. God is all around us, He is in us and all we have to do is listen up. He still speaks. We focus on this world with our natural eyes instead of focusing with the “eyes of our spirit” we tend to lean into the worldly viewpoint instead of the kingdom perspective. Focus up and listen up, because God has not left us for a moment. He still speaks.

He is transcendent above all His works even while He is immanent within them. - A. W. Tozer Jesus Said: “My church, beauty is a part of Me, a replica of My image which reflects the holiness and purity of My life. Look at the rose bud, it has a special beauty of its own, and as it is touched by the Master’s hand, this innocent, tiny and fragile bud becomes a beautiful, strong and highly fragrant rose. My bride, I designed you to have a beautiful spirit, enhanced by My purity, a righteousness you can find only in My Presence. Through My Holy Spirit, I have gifted unique splendor to all that I created; everything has special redemptive value and every created person has unique kingdom purpose. I have placed a beautiful inner spirit deep within human beings, created to blossom in due time with My holy nature and character.” The Bridegroom’s Voice KimberlyMac In reality, the truth of God is known instinctively, for God has embedded this knowledge inside every human heart. 20Opposition to truth cannot be excused on the basis of ignorance, because from the creation of the world, the invisible qualities of God’s nature have been made visible, such as his eternal power and transcendence. He has made his wonderful attributes easily perceived, for seeing the visible makes us understand the invisible. So then, this leaves everyone without excuse. Romans 1

God is in the battle, we do not fight alone. Are you in a battle? Know that God fights for you, that He has the good plan, that He is the winner. God finishes what He starts, and He finishes well. God Wins. We are not alone, we are not losers, we are actually loved in an incredible way, more than we could ever dream, hope or imagine. Never take for granted that God fights for us. God never abdicates His authority to evil. God’s Sovereignty and authority stands forever. God is not asking us to defend ourselves with our own strength and wisdom, He is fighting for our good in the unseen and has a battle strategy working purposefully for our good and His glory. This is His Providential Care and it has two purposes one being for our good and the other being for His glory. He is currently working these two things out, so they counter balance each other and both come out in the endgame of God’s plan. In the transitional time between our good and His glory things can be a bit rough, but that is why we anchor our soul to Jesus. This anchor will hold through the storms of this life. So, once again I state the truth: God has not abdicated His authority to evil. We are still positioned underneath the rulership of His love, we are not alone in the battle, we are facing today, God is in it. God’s sovereignty and authority is a forever thing, while our battles are temporary. Let it sink into Your Spirit that God is fighting for us, His purposes of good and glory are in play in our life. Are you in a battle? Your Commander In Chief, Jesus, has the good plan and He will have the victory. Abdication of His authority is not in His game plan nor in His character and as we look back in heavenly hindsight, we can see that He is faithful, trustworthy and battle ready to fight for those He loves and win the day. It is a lie from the pit of hell that our God has abdicated His authority over evil. Things may seem to be a mess by what we see in our worldly viewpoint, but, look up, focus on Jesus, because there is a good plan in play and it may seem, feel or look like God has given his authority over to evil, but this is not true in the slightest. God is fighting for us in a way we may not be able to wrap our mind around because He is Infinite and we are finite, because He see’s the whole picture and we only see in part. So when you can’t trace His hand, trust His heart. God will always fight for us. We are positioned underneath the rulership of His love and nothing separates us from Him. God’s authority is never abdicated to evil. God is in control. Trust Him.

Psalm 71:14 https://thebridegroomscafe.com/free-indeed/ Evil will not prevail against Almighty God. God Wins. Period. Our freedom is fragile, because incredibly foolish human beings have underestimated the power of God and they actually, arrogantly think that they can take control of His created people, they foolishly think they can control the population and decrease it, they think they can enslave us all.

Now we all claw and climb to try to ascend to the highest authority over one another and as we do, we step on the head of the freedom we once knew and enjoyed and we damage it. We were not created to handle supremacy and we, serving no power higher than self gain have corrupted supremacy, created an illegitimate authority over one another. Only God can handle Supremacy and for humanity this power grab of God’s authority will not end well. https://rumble.com/vbr79v-freedom-an-inalienable-right.html We were created, designed to be free. Freedom was engrained in us by our God deep within our Human DNA. In times such as these, freedom is a fragile thing. We in the United States are so close to losing our freedom. We need be grateful for our freedom of choice, the designing of God, the giving us free will choice. We are free, every people and every nation. Don’t let anyone take away your freedom.

Heart To Heart, isn’t there those times where you would just like to scream out: God! What are you doing??? Yes! Been there and felt that temptation to fall into the lies of the enemy and get upset with God. He knows what He is doing, He sure does and it is funny that we would question Him, the God of the Universe, the ONE Who created and maintains it all. But, us human beings in our human condition, we have our plans, don’t we. So many times my plans have just exploded and my dreams have died and things went totally opposite from what I planned. Isn’t that the truth!!! It happens! I found myself many a time saying: This is not my plan Lord! I don’t understand Your way, but I trust Your heart for me. Many times I see the Lord opening up a way that I don’t want to go. It is not what I planned. I have bucked up my will against what God was doing, but it doesn’t really work, His Will is stronger and His plan is always better for me even if it doesn’t feel very comfortable. The Sovereign Sway of God, we can see it in our life circumstances very clearly. The Holy Spirit is working in us and we can feel and see the direction He wants us to go from the Sovereign Sway of God in our circumstances, step into it, the way He is moving. So even though we complain and we cry out to God in dismay, the Holy Spirit keeps swaying in a specific direction and we need to step into the “Sovereign Sway Of God”! The Holy Spirit navigates us and as we let be, be still and go in followship of that Sovereign Sway of God’s Will for us, stepping into the sway of God’s Will, peace comes and as always, the endgame of God’s Sovereign Will is so good for us. God bless you, Heart To Heart. Let be and be still, and know (recognize and understand) that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations! I will be exalted in the earth! The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our Refuge (our High Tower and Stronghold).

Have you ever fallen into the “comparison trap”? This is definitely an easy thing to do. Definitely a trap of the enemy that we can get out of if we don’t stay in it too long. The enemy of our soul, he has a plan using the “comparison trap” and it starts with comparison, but his motive is more sinister than that… he is looking to derail us from the purpose of God for our life. Comparison is not the enemies main goal, the main goal is that comparison leads us to be discontent. Discontentment stirs up our soul and spirit in a negative way and it is very distracting. It takes our focus off of God. Intimes such as these, it is so important to know and hear the voice of God in our lives. We were created with a specific purpose in mind and our life in Him is all about Him developing us, shaping us purposefully so. Did you know we have “divine appointments” that only we can make. We miss out on the things God has planned for us when we are not focused on who we are, but are comparing ourselves to others. Our true identity is in Jesus Christ, and we should compare ourselves to Him and become like Him, the ONE Who is our future. Comparison always seems to drift into ungodly paths one of them is truly a twisted, crooked path of envy of the wicked. We compare our lives with theirs and they seem to have money, power, position, authority and it seems they have all good things, but this is a limited viewpoint. For in all reality of truth they have nothing that will last, they may sprout like grass, but in the end it will all burn up because they have no future and hope. In times such as these, when evil is lifted up as good and good as evil, deception is prevalent in the all of our everything, we must focus up and stand on the truth of God. The truth is, the enemies of God will perish, they will flourish for a short time, but have not future, no exalted forever. I hope and pray we side step that “comparison trap” of the enemy and keep on moving forward with God, letting Him design and shape us, because there is no one like us. We all were created in the Image of God, but God gave each of us our own fingerprint, and He is designing us uniquely to be the best “us” that we could be. No one like us, no one like our God, who is shaping us purposefully on this day. Be yourself. No comparison. Focus up on God, and let be, be still and let Him shape you. God bless ya.

It is so very true that so many of us shoulder things that we just can’ bear alone. We walk around so weighted down by the cares of this life. (Mark 4:19) If there was a label for that, I call it “The Fixer” and I call it that because I am one of the biggest burdened-shoulderbearer-fixer that has probably ever walked this earth. So, you are not alone if you are a “Fixer”! You know it would be so much better if us “Fixers”, just stayed in our own lane and let God be Who (Psalm 54:4) He is, THE Fixer. (Matthew 6:25-34) God finishes what He starts so very well and we human beings, we do not. We humans in our human condition are famous for making crooked places more crooked and God is famous (Isaiah 45:2-3) for making crooked places straight. So we yield up to GOD. You can see people who are burdened down with things they have shouldered, forgetting all that Jesus took upon His shoulders (Isaiah 9:6) for us, so we would not have to be so burdened down in our soul. I walk by people on the beach and they are so weighed down with the cares of life that they are unaware that I have even walked by them, and their countenance is one that is so down, like they carry the weight of the world on their shoulders. Jesus did that for us already (Isaiah 53:4-6) and He asked us to cast our care on Him. So we yield up to God Up is the answer, the common denominator for all that ails us. (Psalm 50:15) Rising up out of our own, man made burdens that have weighed us down and caused us to fall under the weight of them. Looking up into the eyes of Jesus, knowing He is right there, as a Present help, wanting to help us, wanting to shoulder our burdens. (Matthew 11:28-30) Jesus loves us completely, and understands everything about us. He is a Savior who has borne all of our cares on the cross. He understands (Hebrews 4:15-16) our emotions and our heart pains, because He endured them all. It is never too late to look up, rise up and put all of our cares into our hands and offer them UP to God. Rise Up From The Burden And Look Up. Shouldering way too much! I did that many times when I took on things I should not have taken on. I had way to much care on my life plate. I put it on there, God did not. I was so burdened by the weight of being a Fixer, stepping outside of my lane and trying to be what God is and I can never be. One day I walked the beach and I put a situation in my hand (Hebrews 4:16) that had totally burdened my soul, mind, and spirit to the place of tearfully and humbly giving up, that place where God wants us, that place of yielding and surrendering up. (1 Peter 5:6-7) I put my heavy burden in hand and offered it up to God and then turned my hand over as my sign of letting it go, I surrendered UP. I Pray We Will All Rise Up From Being Weighted Down From The Cares Of This Life. Focus Up To Jesus, Give Up To The Holy Spirit, Yield Up To The Father God All You Have Taken From Him. Rise Up And Get In Our Own Lane, Stay In Our Own Lane Surrendered to God. Rise Up and let be, be still and know He is God. (Matthew 5:1-48) Yield Up to God the method and way and the time and step out of His lane giving Him the room to work things out in His way. Watch-Wait-See the glory of God as He miraculously works out His purposes in our lives for our good and His glory. (Romans 8:28-31) God will finish well in that way of HIs which will leave us in Awe of Him. Give up. Look Up. Rise Up. Surrender Up. Yield Up. UP is the key, the common denominator, I pray it will be so. Up for You and Up for Me. Look-Rise-Surrender-Yield-Focus UP, let it be so. Change It Up! (Isaiah 60) Rise Up! DIG DEEPER: ARISE [from the depression and prostration in which circumstances have kept you–rise to a new life]! Shine (be radiant with the glory of the Lord), for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you! 2 For behold, darkness shall cover the earth, and dense darkness [all] peoples, but the Lord shall arise upon you, and His glory shall be seen on you. 3 And nations shall come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising.

We were miraculously formed and shaped in our mother’s womb. We all have that as a common denominator. God designed us in His Image and then shaped us to thrive in this world in Christ Jesus. We were born to thrive. God made a way for us to stay in Relationship with Him through His Son Jesus, and we stay in heart to heart relationship with Him, as He by the guidance of His Holy Spirit, navigates us to be people who don’t just get through every single day just to get through it, but we thrive as we grow through every day in Christ Jesus, through the power of His Word and the direction of God’s Holy Spirit. We listen up to God first! We were born to thrive, purposefully placed as who we are, what we are, and where we are. Success is faithfulness to what God has called us to, and it is in this heart to heart relationship with God, walking with God, in the strength of His Grace, that we thrive. We give God total access to our lives so we can thrive in Him. Walking in the flesh, staying in the tradition of our comfort zone, we will not have the strength we need to succeed. God’s grace is our strength, it is not to be used for us to keep failing, and then applying this grace over our shame. God’s Grace changes things up. It is powerful and transformational, it was meant for us to apply the Grace, the strength of God, from every moment to every choice, to make the right choice that helps us thrive. Grace from God is for strength to do the right thing, not something to plaster over our sins because we have walked by our flesh, kindled a man made fire and walked by this man made fire that flamed out. No. This is not thriving, it is failure, because it changes nothing and we stay in a rut of sin. God’s grace changes things up in our heart so we can thrive and live in the miraculous of great God Adventure. Our “YES" stays on the table with God when we are walking in the strength of God’s grace. We say YES to God before any of our choices even manifest, we know we will lean into God’s Sovereign sway, making the right choice that pleases Him and causes us to thrive in this life. We were born to thrive, and we have been given everything we need to do so. Jesus is our enough, and His Grace strengthens us so we can thrive, we can grow through anything. Many are the trials of good people, but God delivers them out of them all. Why? Connected heart to heart with Him, there is the Grace we need, the strength we need to thrive. So, it is in our best interest that we cling to God, dig our life roots deeply in Him and thrive. God bless ya.

Shake It Off There is an interesting story about the Apostle Paul in the Bible (Acts 28) where the viper bit him and he shook it off and nothing happened to him and it caused the people to not focus on their situation, but to focus on the God of miracles. So today, the Lord is telling us to “shake it off”! We all have been bit by the viper, our enemy who is stirring up chaos in our lives, we need to do like Paul did. Shake it off. Why is it that the bad things take the center of our focus? It seems like all we hear about, see and talk about are all the things that are going wrong in all of our cultural chaos? Honestly, I think we need to acknowledge and think first on the good things that are happening all around us.(Proverbs 3;1-6) The beauty of God in our lives. Maybe it is time to “shake it off” and start developing a new habit of looking for the good and feeling the Awe of God, for the good things that are going on, instead of the fear and dread of the bad things and bad things to come. We miss so many of the good things because we are focused on the bad things. (1 Peter 5:7) Be grateful, Awe-God grateful for the every day things that are so evidently God working for our good. God is mighty in all of His days, we are flesh, truth and we do have bad days, we should learn to shake off the heaviness in our spirit. Rehearse the truth of God: Our family belongs to God. Our Culture belongs to God. Our nation belongs to God. Our world belongs to God. God has not relinquished the control over us to the enemy. So shake it off, (Psalm 55;22)the fear, dread, anxiety and bad thoughts and put on the garment of praise, thankfulness and gratefulness. There are bad things going on, YES, BUT God is working things out for our good and has never stopped doing that from generation to generation. God remains the same God, He is faithful, trustworthy and has and still does love us so much. Remember that God has proven He is trustworthy, faithful and mighty to save us, time and time again throughout the ages as He intervenes on our behalf, fighting the battles of evil for us.(2 Chronicles 20) Jesus told us that we would have troubles in the world, but He also told us that He has overcome the world. The Word of God speaks (Psalm 34:19), saying that many trials will we face, but God will make a way of escape for each one of them. So, let’s refocus our lives on the good and the glory of God that is happening in our situations every single day and let’s be Awe-GOD grateful, developing our Awe of God more than our dread of the enemy of our soul. Can we do that? Yes we can! Easy-peasy! It is just a wholly-holy realignment with Jesus, a change of focus! God bless you!

Father God, forgive us. We have drifted (Hebrews 2:1) so far away from you. Some days, in times such as these, I don’t even recognize the nation we once were, it is gone. We began drifting away from God, little by little, taking God, His way, truth and life out of our culture until we became a cancel God culture. How sad is that? Now we pay the consequences.

We opened the door to our enemy and he came in and ravished our children, stole the innocence of their youth. We have wounded the generation below us and wounded people, wound people.

We bow before you, we yield to you, we ask you to revive our land once again. Forgive us from drifting away from You.

Jesus Christ says: Simply-Significantly Truth Matters. He actually prayed it for us in John 17: Sanctify them by truth. Jesus knew that truth has the power to transform. Don’t give up on truth it will eventually break through the darkness and shine so brightly people won’t be able to look away. People in our time are wallowing in deception and have created fake realities for themselves so truth has no part of their lives. Even if you feel there is absolutely no truth anymore, that deception is running rampant and people are making bad choices because they are deceived, truth matters. Never give up on truth. The enemy can’t indite truth and win. God’s truth stands the tests of time and every trial thrown at it. Truth does not change because someone doesn’t believe it. Unbelief has no effect on truth. Not believing something does not change the truth of it. We must continue to stand on the side of truth and fight the good fight of faith. Speaking truly, dealing truly and living truly is how we fight the deception of our times. Speak the truth continuously, it matters! God’s Word never returns void. Believe in the power of God’s Word to change things up in His perfect timing. The truth we know is coming up against the barriers of a fake reality but as you continue to stand in prayer, and are unloveable from the side of truth, the light of God’s truth will champion the day, shattering the darkness of deceit with glorious light.

Praise God from Who all blessing flow. We acknowledge Who You are in our lives Father God, knowing without a doubt, You have blessed us much with Your Presence in the all of our everything.

The best, absolute best person for us to emulate is Jesus Christ. He is the only one we should put our identity in. In fact, our identity is best placed wholly-holy in Him. To be like Him is to have loving kindness which is abundant in grace, a patient endurance which has the fragrance of godly wisdom in play, therefore our character is unconditional and yields to learning and growing, to letting be and letting God Work in us and through us. Making room for Jesus in our lives, we place our identity in Him, we give Him permission to speak into our lives His truth that has transforming power on our morals, personality and character, and shapes us in that unique way He has personally designed us to be. We all were made in the Image of God, this is a common thread human to human, but we all are also uniquely shaped and designed by Him in our mother’s womb through our life experiences that He purposefully sets us up with. God knows us best and most. This is why I don’t give permission for many people to speak into my life. They don’t know me the way He does. God sees all of us, He sees our thoughts, motives of our heart, attitudes of our soul. God knows the why behind every word and every action we take. It is a good life when we live it unto God, when it pleases Him, that our motives are pure, our thoughts are of Him and our attitudes are in check, wholly-holy aligned with His Kingdom precepts. People tend to judge us by the outside appearance and their judgement can never be 100 on target, because they can’t know our heart, they can’t know our inner motive, only God can truly know that. It is best for us if we yield to God and we give Him permission to speak truth in our lives and we let Him navigate us first. People may have good intentions speaking into our lives, but most people in today’s culture, they don’t have time to truly know me, it is a surface knowing, it is only by a glimpse of my life, where God knows all of me. Most people who try to speak into my life, I am polite to them, but I don’t give them permission to speak into my heart, only God has that permission. I guard my heart, because humanity is imperfect, seeing through the eyes of the flesh, seeing only in part, and they tend to criticize me, condemn me by what they think they know, an assumption, a speculation, a presupposition, these are never the truth. Being an imperfect person makes me a really bad judge of someone else’s heart. The best thing I can do is work on my imperfect life before telling someone else they need to work on their faults. God has given permission to us to love, encourage and bless others, but not to judge them, because He knows they can’t truly know the heart and motive of someone else, this is His Infinite way and not ours, we are finite, He is Infinite. This is why I no longer will chase after the approval of people, I am becoming like Christ, I chase after Him. He has my full permission to speak into every area of my life, I give Him total access. God says there is safety in a multitude of counselors, so I am directed by God, navigated by Him as He creates enduring friendships for me, friends that have a glimpse into my soul, friends He uses to speak into my life. If you are not doing life with me, if God has not set us up as friends, if we are just acquaintances, I will guard my heart, for out of my heart flows the issues of life and it is worth protecting it, it is valuable enough to listen up to God first, to give God that first permission to speak into my life and to withdraw that permission for those who do not know me, who do not do life with me. Many times I have had people say to me: You are this… they label me. I in turn will say: I am not. You don’t know me. You don’t know my heart. I do not let a label stand that has been pasted on me irresponsibly by someone who does not have permission to speak into my life. Labeling is something we need to change up. Name calling, telling someone: You are a racist. You are a bigot. You are a liar. You are homophobic. You are self-righteous. You are stupid. You are foolish. You don’t care. It is funny how things work out in life that a lot of times there is transference when people label you, they are labeling you with the label of who they truly are, the label they give you is a reflection of their own heart. There we go… just a very few of the labels we human beings use to judge one another when we have no clue of the other person’s heart or motive, only God does. So it is godly wisdom not to label others as much as it is godly wisdom to not let someone speak a label upon your life. Only God Knows. Give God total access to your life, give Him permission to speak into your life and you will know truth, you will learn and grow into His character, been shaped and designed by Him.

I am not ashamed to say: I need You Lord. I am not foolish to think I can navigate my own life in times such as these, where this world is so topsy-turvy. So much that we have known for so long is like living in an opposite day: Good is bad and bad is good. We have flip-flopped our morals and godly character is now a persecuted thing. What is right is being unjustly indicted and what is wrong is being overlooked, not held accountable and lifted up, and acclaimed. True Godly heroes are defamed and falsely accused as ungodly people take their position of fake authority, steal, kill and destroy the innocence of children, and cancel all things christian, the good, the right, and all the sin Jesus died to save us from, is now flaunted in our face through the naked bodies of men trying to be women and women trying to be men. There are only two genders. Two! We are now being defined by our sexual preferences, we are so much more than this, we are created to be so much more than an identity based on sexual appetites. We were created in God’s Image, shaped and designed by Him in our mother’s womb. Our identity is in God, not in all these made up fake reality gender falsities. We need God. Dig Deeper: https://thebridegroomscafe.com/back-to-the-basics/ Our human authority, taken illegitimately has corrupted absolutely and we are suffering, yet You are growing us through the horrific consequences we are growing through; You have not left us, nor forsaken us, but are purposefully shaping us through all of our human mess. Jesus bring us back to the basics of You, Jesus being our first in the all of our everything. Get back to the basics of putting God first. In times such as these to step out on your own to follow a human being instead of God, to look to a human being to save you is dangerous drifting away from God being at the center of our lives. We need God, we need a vital-vertical relationship with Him. In times such as these, make God your enough, open your heart wide to Him, do life with Him. Don’t be ashamed because you need God, it is the wisest choice you can make to step out in the morning and your first step out is bowed down to God, yielding your life, your day to His way, truth and life. Our flesh is weak, but God is the strength of our lives. We are seeing so much horrific behavior as the human condition has run amuck. Without God we are not good human beings and we are seeing this now, we are experiencing this now. We need God to strengthen us, to guide us, to protect us and we pray: Come Lord Jesus, Navigate Us On This Day, We Yield To You. Dig Deeper: https://thebridegroomscafe.com/yield-to-god/

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/

What Is Transference? How does it affect us? I have been thinking about transference lately and I have been talking to God about it, asking for His protection from it, and His wisdom not to do it. We all have been hurt by transference. Transference is a ploy of the enemy in our lives and we need to guard our heart with all diligence and don’t let ourselves become a vehicle of transference. Know what it is and fight against it entering into your life path, fight against being used by it and soul fatigued because of it. How? Begin with staying close to Jesus, draw near to Him, resist the enemy and He will flee. If transference is a part of your life path, refresh your soul in the promises of God and don’t let the enemy steal or fatigue your compassion. Let be, be still, let God work and most importantly give Him time to work and room to work. Fast and pray, because strong holds are broken when you do this, remembering it is not by Your might, or your power but by God’s Spirit that crooked places caused by transference can be made straight. Think On These: Proverbs 4:20-23; 1 Timothy 6:11-12; Jeremiah 29:11-14 I asked God to explain transference to me, to clarify what it was? Jesus showed me it was the reason He hung on the cross, He took the punishment for our sins, for something He never did. Jesus was proclaimed guilty by the very guilty ones who were transferring the consequences of their sin to Him. He was blamed for what they did and suffered because of what they did. 1 Peter 2:21-24 Transference is when you think you are a victim and you are not, you point your finger at someone else so you don’t have to deal with your own mess you have created. You take out your past relationship hurts on the wrong people, the ones who did not hurt you, because that is easier on the root of bitterness from your past hurts that plaques your soul. It is so much easier on you to take the focus off of what the real problem is and blame someone else, who has nothing to do with the reality of your inner secreted truth. Transference creates a fake reality through false accusations founded upon speculation, assumption, exaggeration, and presuppositions, and blame is born out of these spoken untruths. Be Lame. Blame! Transference is stirring up a huge tornado with dark emotions, and sucking everyone into it, as it crashes into people with emotional whirlwind after whirlwind. If someone refuses to step into your tornado and speaks truth that disrupts the flow of it, then you backlash them with all kinds of narcissistic lightening strikes. You talk about them to others and make them sound like they are some kind of a monster, damaging their reputation, and relationships with others as you blame them for what you have stirred up. Proverbs 3:28-32 Then comes the emotional punishment, you punish them by not speaking to them and rejecting them, withdrawing your permission for them to be with you, setting conditions upon them and letting them know they are not welcome where you are. You can’t come here because you are our problem. Once the tornado spins out, this is the conditional part of the storm, where favor is withheld because you did not meet their conditions because you spoke the truth, and that is when the self-righteousness attitude is flung around like dark mud on a white shirt. What a human mess… and my suggestion is that you don’t try to fix it, or clean it up while transference is in play. Turn to the Only One Who can, Jesus, the Reconciler Who never fails to make crooked places straight. Yield To Jesus. Pray. Isaiah 45:2-3 Life is a course in disarray because of soul vandals, and transferring the blame is the name of the game from nation to nation, community to community, people to people, and family to family. So many people their anger is out of control, and they are doing stupid, foolish things and we are paying the consequences for them, because they transfer the blame to us. If you have an anger issue and you cause something bad to happen, you made the bad choice, so stop blaming other people for it and deal with your own mess, stop transferring the problem on someone else, putting it on them. It is your fault, not mine. Dealing with transference is a difficult thing and this scripture will give you the godly wisdom to do so. Then he told me, “This is the message from the Lord to Zerubbabel: ‘You will not succeed by your own strength or by your own power. The power will come from my Spirit,’ says the Lord of heaven’s armies.

Hey Heart To Heart, I wanted to take a moment to thank you for supporting our videos. We appreciate it. Are you a golfer? Ever played golf? It can be challenging, but it is a fun challenge. I started playing when I was a little girl with my grandfather, who played 18 holes of golf every day of his retirement. He loved the game, He loved the challenge. Like the game of golf, life is a challenge we grow through through every single day. Sometimes there are obstacles in life and there are troubles in life. What did Jesus say to us? Well… He did not candy coat it… He said: You are going to have troubles in this world, but I have overcome the world. What does that mean? Well, I think about golf, I have a weakness… I can’t drive over water… it gets in my head and even though I have a really good golf drive, I can’t do it when there is water!! That is what happens to us in life, we get into our head, we overthink things, we don’t lean into the truth and we end up swimming in the drink. God is with us, He never leaves us, He gave us an Advocate, someone who can navigate us over water holes, yet we try to do it on our own, we get into our own head, we try to be the fixer and we fail. We have to fix our eyes on Jesus, because He is the overcomer, He has already won! When I try to drive over a water hole, it gets into my head and I drive right into the water, but if I focus on the ball, forget about the challenge of water, just swing, keep my head down, eyes on the ball… I can drive over water. As a golfer, water holes are not my favorite, the ones where you have to drive over water, but they are good for me because they demand a greater focus and I realize, I am up for the challenge. In life, we are so up for the challenges and the purposes of God are flowing in them, if we focus on Jesus, realizing that His purposes are in play and even if the challenge is great, His purposes are greater, than we can do more than we ever hoped for or imagined…. We can drive over water and land on the green, and we can get a part on that hole. Awe-GOD! Dig Deeper: https://thebridegroomscafe.com/?s=challenges Wild Thinking! Don't give into it.

I hope you have a lovely day… those words were spoken in kindness to me, and a word echoed in my soul, the word “lovely”! I thought, what is my perfect “lovely” day? But then I knew, there is nothing perfect here in this world that I am in but not of. Yet, not everything perfect is dependent upon our circumstances, there is a huge variable that is not. God is perfect, I am not. Yet, God is always with me, He chose me, imperfect and all, He loves me. Lovely is the heart of God, that is never withdrawn from us, that attractive love we find in His Presence that draws us to Him in that magnetic way. “My cherished bride, I am the beautiful spirit of all life! I offer Myself, all that I am to you each day through the possibility and purity of My love. My love for you is complete, a wholesome devotion expressed by My Holy Spirit, Who lives inside of you. Daily, I grant you a righteous, divine character through your holy alliance with My Spirit.” The Bridegroom’s Voice What is lovely to you? Lovely to me is God’s Presence, that purity of righteousness found no where else, a holiness that when we get heart to heart with God, refreshes our human conditioned soul. Lovely, is the “always presence” of God in our lives, no matter what our situation prescribes, His Presence lifts us higher than the dark redacted script of our circumstances, and enlightens every dark place. “The wisdom I impart to you today, My bride, is for you to always look beyond the façade of prettiness in your world and find My beautiful spirit of life! See the reflection of My Image in all things and seek out the beauty of My person and you will discover the true, beautiful spirit of life on earth as it is in heaven. My church, always be found in Me and I will enlighten your heart and nurture your spirit with an incredible security, a stability surpassing all your human understanding, a peace that I freely give you out of My inner heart of grace. How beautiful is the glorious Bride of Christ!” The Bridegroom’s Voice The enemy can’t steal our light when we choose to be positioned in the effervescent glory of God, heart to heart with God, in personal relationship with God. This is lovely… this is a lovely and beautiful thing, the Omnipresence of our God, stolen by no one and nothing can dim it. This makes for a lovely day. What loveliness has been abundantly showered upon us by our God? His Love… unconditionally, simply-significantly so. For the Lord God is brighter than the brilliance of a sunrise! Wrapping himself around me like a shield, he is so generous with his gifts of grace and glory. Those who walk along his paths with integrity will never lack one thing they need, for he provides it all! O Lord of Heaven’s Armies, what euphoria fills those who forever trust in you! Psalms 84:11-12 https://my.bible.com/bible/1849/PSA.84.11-12 Lovely! God, You Are So Lovely. Beautiful in character, holy, pleasing in joy, inspiring in love, and lovely in Your affection towards us. Your nature charms us, delights us, allures us and Your amazing character is constantly seen and encouraging us to be lovely like You in goodness, kindness, wisdom, righteousness, peace and joy. You, Lord Jesus inspire our love and affection, and Your purity of righteousness leads us with a heavenly loveliness that infuses our human condition, with strength to say no to our flesh and yes to Your Kingdom living. It is absolutely lovely to be alert to Your Presence, the beautiful spirit of life. What a lovely day it makes. “I will write My word upon your heart, encouraging and inspiring you unto good works. Church, I encourage you to daily apply My wisdom to your soul and I, in turn, will inscribe My sovereign will on your spirit and strengthen the steadfastness of your character in My holiness. My bride, I encourage you to refresh and purify the emotions of your soul daily as you commune with My beautiful Spirit of life, heart-to-heart.”#TheBridegroomsVoice KimberlyMac The world at times is not a lovely place, mostly in this life season we find ourselves thrust in, where good has been flip-flopped by evil to be bad and bad flip-flopped to be good, it makes for a horrifically corrupted human condition… not exactly lovely living. It muddies our soul as we focus on the shock of its depravity, therefore we lift our eyes higher to the beauty of life, to the Presence of our God. Our worldly viewpoint at times is deplorable, but our Kingdom perspective at all times is lovely. Wherever God is, and He is Omnipresent with us, this is so very lovely. “My bride, there will be times when your inner beauty will be muddied, stained by the corruption of your culture. Don’t be afraid, lean on My perfect love. I promise I will cleanse your heart and remove any impurities and once again you will have a fresh, beautiful spirit, purified by My Spirit of life. My bride, even the ashes of your yesterdays, I can convert into beauty, transforming them into valuable heart treasures. Come to Me and My Spirit will refresh the charisma of your heart with a renewed newly cleansed attitude, which will saturate your soul.” The Bridegroom’s Voice I hope you have a lovely day my friends! May God bless your day in the loveliness of Jesus Christ, heart to heart with Him. He is the best of this life here on this side of heaven, lovely in all of His ways and we can be best because of Him, we can be lovely, just like He is. His loveliness will be with us always, we will never be a God forsaken people, He loves us extremely well in the beauty of His Holiness, His ever present life in us and through us.

Galatians 6:7-10 https://my.bible.com/bible/1849/GAL.6.7-10 I am so tired, aren’t you, so tired of these arrogant self-righteous people who think they have claim to our lives. These sinful people being used by the enemy of our soul, whose purpose is to kill, steal and destroy us. These evil enticed people are changing things up in a bad way, so suddenly so quickly, like a bad current causing us to drift out to sea and drown. They think they have the right to do horrific things to humanity because they feel that we are over populated and it is their life goal to kill, steal and destroy our lives. They are foolishly playing God with our lives. Makes me sick what they are dong to us and our children. Resist the enemy and fight the good fight of faith. Hebrews 6:18-19 https://my.bible.com/bible/8/HEB.6.18-19 As you can tell, I have a lot of righteous anger right now about these people, and I hope God takes everything they are doing to us, every evil act, every evil intention and boomerangs it back on them. I pray this. We do have a recourse and that is to remember God is with us. As this evil current pushes into our communities, look to Jesus, He is our buoy to hold onto in the midst of the bad current, He will hold us firm, He will anchor us to His way, truth and life. He will not allow this ungodly current which is pulling at our culture, causing all kinds of chaos, to prosper over us. God will make a way of escape for us from the evil intentions of our enemy. Timothy 6:11-12 https://my.bible.com/bible/1849/1TI.6.11-12 Fight the good fight of faith! Resist The Enemy! We pray in the name of Jesus, and we deny the enemies evil plan, we deny the the enemy access to speak into our lives, we deny the enemy access to our body, soul or spirit, and we deny the enemy access to every area of our lives and the lives of those we love. We say NO in the name of Jesus Christ, our Savior, Redeemer, Protector and Provider, we deny access to the enemy to disrupt our lives. Psalms 94:20-23 https://my.bible.com/bible/1849PSA.94.20-23 We say NO and GOD says ENOUGH and He will act on our behalf, He will send a boomerang of Justice and Judgement on the evil that has been formed against us. There is nothing the enemy has done to us that God can’t reverse. He is a God of miracles and it only takes Him a moment to reverse the curse of the enemy of our soul. We look to God, we draw close to God, we rely on Him, knowing a power higher than ourselves, connected heart to heart with Jesus, we deny the enemy access to our lives. We say No!

No doubt about it, this is a very cultural stormy life season. The cultural chaos is loud and very noisy to our soul. The state of our nations is “flux”! The cultural storms are coming in one after another and it makes us feel overwhelmed and hopeless. We can’t even catch our breath between these life storms as they roll in. God wants us to activate our faith and listen up to Him. How do we do that in these crazy times? How do we stay safe in these cultural storms, so we are not led by fear and jumbled up emotions? So that we are not deceived and impulsively make bad choices. Stillness is a good answer. Clear your soul with God’s Word, His truth is a great stabilizer. Make time to sit in God’s Presence and soak up His peace into your soul. Stillness is valuable in times such as these and we should treat it as such. God’s Word is our strength. We need to creatively think of ways to be in God’s Word. I listen to it when I walk. I have certain verses taped to my mirror and I see them when I get up in the morning. I pray God’s Word. I spend time in my Vital-Vertical relationship with God in His Word, talking with Him, praying for my family. This is a precious time for me each day, kind of like an appointment with God that I look forward to every morning. I don’t compartmentalize God out of my life. He is in all of my life, this is being wholehearted with God, having an undivided heart. (Psalm 86:11-12) I practice the Presence of God all day, inviting Him into everything, because He is there, in the all of my everything. There is not a moment I am without God. In the calm times, He is there, in the stormy times He is there. Omnipresent GOD! Oh, how I love that about Him. We need to practice the Presence of God, talking with Him about everything, standing in Awe of Who He is and sharing our concerns with Him, giving Him our feelings so we don’t act on them, but we act out of God’s navigation of truth and faith as God leads us. I love this quote by A.T. Pierson. “Go as I am led. Go when I am led. Go where I am led.” Yes, our culture is in a state of flux and it is not always good changes that are taking place. The storms are raging, but God is in the storms. These storms are very distracting, so we need to learn to look away and be God focused, be alert to God’s Presence. This is not a time for casual Christianity, it is a time to be all in with God. Wholeheartedness in our relationship with God is a good way to be safe and protected in times such as these. God is with us, God is for us. Trust Him. Let be, be still and know He is God. Dig Deeper: “God never gives guidance for two steps at a time. I must take one step, and then I get light for the next.

His agreement is arranged and guaranteed in every detail. He will ensure my safety and success.” 2 Samuel 23:2-3 https://thebridegroomscafe.com/family-prayer-11-stillness/ https://rumble.com/vcfup5-simply-significantly-enough.html

Stillness inside to outside. The wind is whipping up cultural chaos in this life season we find ourselves thrust in. Stillness inside is what we need. Our soul still before God, and yielded to Him. Our spirit bowed in that surrender of all things us in this world. We bow our will before the Sovereignty of our God in Awe of Who He is. There is something so beautiful about a soul that has been stilled by God, a spirit that has connected with God, a will that is yielded to God, and a mind that has let be, stilled itself to a place of purely listening up to God. This is when we hear that still small voice inside of us and can be navigated by The Holy Spirit. Yielded: Not my will but Yours. Lord God. Stillness of spirit, soul, mind and will is a beautiful thing. The enemy of our soul bombards us with distraction, disfunction, disparity, disillusionment, discouragement, and creates a whirlwind of chaos and confusion all around us, so that all we see is the “devil “d” craftiness, and our focus is stolen and our stillness is wrecked. We can’t let Him steal our stillness of soul. God is with us, so very Present at all times, we can reach out of the enemies plan for us, and grasp the mighty right hand of Almighty God, and He can pull us up out of a “Devil D” pit into His sweet stillnesss. Yield - Believe - Trust and activate our faith, these are the sweet moments we can connect heart to heart with God, shutting out all the cultural chaos and be embraced by a stillness that saturates our soul, shuts down our mind chaos, and focuses our spirit on Him, as we yield to His way, truth and life. Do you have chaos in your soul? Whatever God asks you to do, lean into it, yield to God what you want to do in reaction to your “Devil D” situation, and look up, connect with God, and wait on Him in sweet stillness. Watch in prayer, wait in hope and see the glory of God. Dig Deeper: https://thebridegroomscafe.com/the-sound-of-silence/

We are created in God’s Image and designed and destined to be free. Yes, this is us human beings. We were created by our Creator God, shaped with the liberty of a free will. This is what He wanted for us, freedom, liberty and justice for all. It is a paradox that the very free will we were created to have, has been corrupted by our human condition and is now being used by a few, to take away the freedom, liberty and justice of most of us. This evil plan has been put in motion by the enemy of our soul, to use a few to enslave the masses. This is a direct violation of the Sovereign Will of God. These evil engulfed people, are so deceived that they actually think they can defeat the supremacy of God, superseding His plan for the Creation He shaped for freedom, a people with liberty and free will. This is God’s design. 1 IN [this] freedom Christ has made us free [and completely liberated us]; stand fast then, and do not be hampered and held ensnared and submit again to a yoke of slavery [which you have once put off]. There is nothing about God’s Infinite creation that a finite being can alter forever. Look at the powerful truth of God, how it has endured the test of time, and deception will not win out over it, because God’s truth has over all the years withstood the trials of the foolishness of mankind. Truth still reigns and the unbelief of human beings has not even put a dent in its staying power. Unbelief has no power over God’s truth. With our free will, we choose Christ and in this freedom of God’s Truth, no one can enslave us again. We stand on the side of truth, free in Christ Jesus. Evil will not prevail against Almighty God. God Wins. Period. Our freedom is fragile, because incredibly foolish human beings have underestimated the power of God and they actually, arrogantly think that they can take control of His created people, they foolishly think they can control the population and decrease it, they think they can enslave us all. The can’t. They won’t win. People trying to Lord over other people, they serve no power higher than self, therefore they are blinded to the power of God. They do not know the deliverance, redeeming, resurrected power of God. They do not know truth. They do not know God. God is faithful in all of His ways to His people. God will not allow this evil to alter the plans He has set in motion for His people and His creation. They absolutely can not touch the future God has planned for us. God will say No. And to the evil and those being used by the evil one, Almighty God will say: ENOUGH! God will finish this battle well and His freedom, justice and liberty for all will prevail. Yes, the storm is upon us, but God is in the storm. These evil, self-righteous arrogant and foolishly deceived people have underestimated the power, wisdom, knowledge of our Omnipresent God and His people. God will prevail over the evil of our time. These evil people, trying to steal, kill and destroy us, being used by the father of lies, every evil plan, motive and action that they have done, will come back on them. The boomerang of God will bring with it heavy consequences for their sin. Our freedom has become fragile and limp because they have carried out secreted evil plans. These sin sick people, with absolute power that has corrupted absolutely, they actually think they can take over the whole world. But God has exposed and will continue to bring their evil to the light of His Truth, and He will expunge it, He will deliver us and restore the strength of our freedom once again. We must look to God as these days ahead will become darker as the evil one makes his final stand from the place of defeat. As a wounded animal is at its most dangerous state, these are dangerous times for us. As we yield to God, trusting Him, staying in followship of Him, listening up to Him we will hear that still small voice: This is the way walk in it. We will be navigated and provided for during the battle for our freedom and God will use us by the way of His power, wisdom and might, as we are navigated by Him, our tattered freedom will stand. Evil motives, evil crafty plans will not deny us our God given freedom. We are free indeed in Christ Jesus! Our national flag may be limp, but it will fly freely again and we will once again be One Nation Under God with liberty, freedom and justice for all. We use our free will to position ourselves underneath the Rulership of God’s Love. We ask for forgiveness of our sins, our wicked ways and we pray to our Father God for deliverance and restoration, placing our hope in Him. Therefore, there is no evil formed against God’s children that will prosper. Give your heart to Jesus Christ, be a part of of the family of God and stay in followship of His way, truth and life. Everything we know and have known to be normal to us will come crashing down in these times, but God’s loyalty to us, His love for us and His truth will remain. God will make all things new for us. God is for us. God Wins. Justice has been hijacked by evil and, we trust God to restore the liberty of true justice, we wait for it, we patiently endure in belief of our God, knowing His Sovereignty will stand, knowing He is working in the unseen and knowing His endgame is for our good. The restoration of freedom is God’s battle, and those who have rejected the grace and mercy God has been extending them in times such as these, they will suffer without the hope, peace and protection of God. He has been long suffering with this present evil generation, but He will no longer be so. He will restore liberty and justice for all and all those who stand on the side of evil will lose. We, Christians, the family of God, firmly stand on the side of truth, wavering not. We know without a doubt, the full counsel of the Word of God, the truth of Jesus Christ, makes us free indeed. We will not be enslaved to a yoke of worldly bondage, to a corrupted finite supremacy, and will yield ourselves, wholly-holy entrusting ourselves to our faithful, trustworthy, always present and powerful God. It is to the supremacy of Jesus, we bow our knee to in reverence, honor and belief of His way, truth and life. There is no other god before Him, He is Supreme and no human being can travail against His Sovereign Will for His people, bought by His precious blood for us. We are adopted children of God. As His children, we belong to no one else, we are not enslaved to anyone, or in bondage to anything, as freedom is our God given right. In Christ we stand, on the solid rock of His Word we are secure in our future. Man’s will can not prevail against the Sovereign Will of God. Trust God, and give God the room He needs to work. No Fear! It is always darkest before the dawn. God is at work in the unseen and He will deliver us from evil. We will be free, just as He designed us to be. We have a future and hope no deplorable human being can alter. Let God Work. He will restore 100 percent the liberty, freedom, and justice that has been stolen from us. Watch in prayer, wait in followship and see the glory of God.

Knowledge, Wisdom, Kindness, Goodness, Discernment, Truth, Love… all these wonderful things deep within our inner spiritual core. Christ’s Holy Spirit in us, the hope of glory, He is functioning within us, leading us from within to respond godly without. When we react, flying into an emotional rage, nothing good happens. When we respond to God, when those suddenly things happen, we have His grace, kindness, truth and unconditional love inside of us, from within to without it goes. This is how God leads us out of human reaction to Holy Spirit Led response that is godly and heals, restores and revives. Reaction, kills, steals and destroys, it is from the enemy of our soul. Response, being Holy Spirit led, is abundant in love, truth, kindness and enhances value in our relationships. “We have strong feelings, often driven by compelling circumstances. Yet all is worsened by giving our emotions free reign.” Robert J. Morgan What happens when someone is trying to control you with their emotions of anger? How do you handle it? It is either react or respond. Our emotions are like a speed boat flying into an inlet full of currents, so beware when you let those emotions fly, something can go really wrong as we foolishly speed head on into into an inlet of jumbled up currents. The Holy Spirit is in our heart and when we respond to God first, drawing on the strength of God in us, we can have grace, goodness, and unconditional love. Where there is no grace given, there is no true God relationship found, it is all about religion, self-righteousness and religious doings. Being found in God, living through His strength, makes all things possible, and we can respond godly even if the current of the day is anger, bitterness, and mean-spirited banter. When someone has narcissistic behavior and is trying to control us with emotional meanness, saying mean things, doing spiteful-retaliatory things, it feels impossible to respond godly. Sometimes we just “flesh out” in finite reaction. But with God, His Holy Spirit in us, we can respond godly by His strength, through His wisdom and discernment. Kindness and grace are lacking when self-righteousness, condemnation, and religiosity quench it. Sometimes we don’t lead with God’s grace, and we put condemnation on people by conditional judgements about assumed behavior, being critical about things that we are not even living up too, by punishing them emotionally, by placing conditions on them, and by ghosting them out of your life. When this kind of human reaction happens, what spirit are we working out of, it is not the Holy Spirit of God, so who is it then? Who is leading us? When we are saved, yielding our lives to Jesus Christ, we get an amazing gift deposited deep within our inner spiritual core, it is God’s Holy Spirit. We can be navigated by His Spirit, at all times, no matter what. When we “react” with negative emotions, this will always be out of the human condition, it is a finite reaction and does not end well. A godly response is by the strength and power of the Holy Spirit, and it is always truth in love, and grace by way of mercy, and this response is not willed by us, but navigated by the power of the Holy Spirit of God in us. We are trusting God, not trying to fix things, but putting our faith in the Fixer, Jesus Christ, and allowing His Holy Spirit to work through us with truth and love. We can’t save people, Jesus is the Savior. Be silent, Be calm, Be still and stay confident in God, giving God time to work.

There is a lot of anxiety in our cultural chaos and it is contagious as we hear people express how they are feeling in times such as these. The best cure for anxiety is declaring your love and praise for the only One Who can dispel anxiety, shattering the soul darkness of it... and that is Jesus Christ. Oh, what a love He gifts us with. If you are feeling that overwhelming anxiety that arises from panic from your worldly viewpoint, you can know peace again as you express the love in your heart for God.

There is so much I love about You, Lord God. I mostly love You are true, that there is nothing deceptive about You. You say what you mean, You mean what you say. Who do you love? What or Who do you worship? I am here today to tell us that Jesus, the One Who loves us most, laid down His life for us, died a horrific and painful death, so we could be free, forever. Jesus defeated death for us, now we have eternal life. There is so much about Jesus that I love. He is faithful, loyal, true, and He is mighty to save, a deliverer, a winner in all things. He has never lost. What is best about Him is His love. He loves us unconditionally, He never treated us like slaves, He gave us a free will, hoping we would chose Him. I love that about Him. He is so confident in Who He is, what He is about, that He gives us the option to chose Him, because He knows we will. There is no greater love, no one has loved us better than our God. I love that I am free to grow in Christ Jesus, to experience life with Him, to grow through in that way only He can empower. I worship Jesus, in a wholly-holy way, because He loves me this way first. He is the fullness of truth, there is no evil in Him, no deception. You can believe what He says, what He promised you will happen. He will always be with us, He will never turn on us, be disloyal to us or leave us in our sinful, deplorable human nature. Jesus made a way for us, a way of truth and life and this is love like no other. I love you Lord Jesus, with my life! AweGOD! I hope you all consider to do the same, choose Jesus, it will be the best choice you ever made on this side of heaven and it will bring you to the heart of God, to a love so sure, so steady, so true, you will never experience anything like it. That is why I know without a doubt, I am loved by God completely and it is a love that I reciprocate in worship of Him with my life, wholly-holy so. Jump in to a love greater than this life and say with a pure heart: I Love You Lord.

With all the cultural chaos of our time, this life season can truly have some crooked path’s to maneuver. It is really stormy culturally so, and we may be fogged in by the injustices that are going on, so much so that it is hard to find our way, to safely maneuver the choices that need to be made so we can move forward without tripping and falling. God has the whole picture, we only see in part, and that part sometimes is so confusing because we don’t always understand God’s ways. It is more than obvious in times such as these, that God’s ways are not our ways. Sometimes we find ourselves on a dangerous pathway, trying to navigate in a fog, during a stormy life season. It may feel impossible to find our way, but we know God is with us and we know of His faithfulness to lead us before, so we wait on His navigation, knowing He will not leave us in this situation, nor will He forsake us. Going by what we see, feel and are experiencing, it can be scary, but living by faith, knowing that God’s Holy Spirit will navigate us, we will find our way, and we will safely grow through this stormy life season, we can trust God no matter what we are feeling, seeing or experiencing. God has not abandoned us, He is working in the unseen for our good. God always wins because He is an excellent finisher! Awe-GOD! You can trust Him!
