He adds “surrendering is never a one-time event. …There is a moment of surrender, and there is the practice of surrender, which is moment-by-moment and lifelong….It will often mean doing the opposite of what you feel like doing.” As we surrender, by choice, over and over, we change the way we think. For every message of defeat that Satan sends into the heart of the recovering wanderer, there is a message of hope from God.

I am 10 weeks into Freedom Session -- a version of Celebrate Recovery, also a 12 step faith based program. I just found my sponsor and am digging things up that are enlightening, painful and freeing.

Her email to me is more than precious, to me it is a sure SIGN from GOD, that I should keep posting transparently, whatever I am feeling...to the GLORY OF GOD! "Are ye content being still?"

PRAISE GOD in all things, in the storm. Isaiah 26:3 says, “You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you.” The storm is not the problem. It stirs our faith to then respond and activate our faith and trust in the almighty God to experience peace and joy like we’ve never seen before. What you call a tombstone, God calls a mile marker!

"Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done...." Many people pray as a church expectation, or perhaps ONLY when the anxiety caused by troubling circumstances arises. Peter prayed for believers that their faith would increase, not their wealth. Those who genuinely live inside a relationship with God as Father, will inwardly be compelled to pray and therefore will pray even though nothing on the outside is pressing them to do so.Barbara Hoylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11789458949936651728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4111007803730909803.post-17999188053806165302017-01-11T12:17:16.450-08:002017-01-11T12:17:16.450-08:00“Sir,” the woman said, “you must be a prophet. But...“Sir,” the woman said, “you must be a prophet. But say, tell me, why is it that you Jews insist that Jerusalem is the only place of worship, while we Samaritans claim it is here at Mount Gerizim, where our ancestors worshiped?” Jesus replied, “The time is coming, ma’am, when we will no longer be concerned about whether to worship the Father here or in Jerusalem. For it’s not where we worship that counts, but how we worship—is our worship spiritual and real? Do we have the Holy Spirit’s help? For God is Spirit, and we must have his help to worship as we should. The Father wants this kind of worship from us. But you Samaritans know so little about him, worshiping blindly, while we Jews know all about him, for salvation comes to the world through the Jews.” The woman said, “Well, at least I know that the Messiah will come—the one they call Christ—and when he does, he will explain everything to us.” Then Jesus told her, “I am the Messiah!”<br /><br />Just then his disciples arrived. They were surprised to find him talking to a woman, but none of them asked him why, or what they had been discussing."

These physical pleasures can’t fill us, but they can numb us. Numb souls are never growing souls. They wake up one day feeling so very distant from God and wondering how in the world they got there.<br /><br />Since Satan’s goal is to separate us from the Lord, this is exactly where he wants us to stay. But the minute we turn to His Word is the minute the gap between us and God is closed. He is always near. His Word is full and fully able to reach those deep places inside us desperate for truth.<br /><br />If you missed out on spending time in God’s Word today… or if you haven’t spent time in it for weeks, months, even years… it’s not too late.

Just gotta share this...mostly to replenish me and train my my brain and control my tongue. Quote: "Complaining is like emotional pollution; it pollutes the air that all breathe around us...it spreads to infect others much like sneezing. We murmur, disapprove, whine, blame, snivel, gripe and most importantly depreciate all that the Lord has done. Whiners look and find many who will chime in to validate their discontent. Difficult circumstances and negative people will come our way. When we complain we repel the presence of the Lord, we quench the Spirit of the Lord and He does not hear our prayers. Like the example of the children of Israel, they felt entitled and they were ungrateful for what they had and believed they deserved more. We need to put to death the negative spirit within us, and stop agreeing with the Liar, and start speaking kingdom language of thanksgiving in all things. In the "six things the Lord hates....a proud look, a lying tongue...and he who sows discord among the brethren." When it comes to judgments, criticism, sarcasm, negativity, complaining, and gossiping, most people live live in deception and they are blinded to whom they are serving by them. IF we are to be authentic followers of Christ, there is little room for innocent sarcastic remarks. "Those who consider themselves religious and yet do not keep a tight rein on their tongues deceive themselves, and their religion is worthless" James 1:26 --- As Christians we must REFUSE to be offended by those who are weak, broken, hurting and who spew negativity. But the Lord does not want us to dismiss, or disassociate with a negative person, although we must use wisdom in what we share with them. Negative, broken spirited people are loved by God and we must choose the higher Way, His Way and forgive and issue mercy, patience and love as we pray for them. When we encourage the negative person, we do NOT speak of their behavior, but we call them up to being a renewed, changed, new creation in Christ. The Lord wants us us rejoicing always, and speaking words of life, hope and NOT judgement, criticism, sarcasm and complaining. Negative people are narrow-minded and therefore unteachable. They look for "what is wrong" and gladly give voice to it. Every time we have a bad experience, when all that is within our flesh wants to complain, we must STOP and pray asking "What would You Lord show me about myself in this? Give me wisdom, give me words to think, allow me to see the good, control my tongue and use it for Your glory in this situation." Praising God in all things, in every circumstance, causes us to look through the eyes of Jesus and expect good! "Gracious words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul and healing to the bones".... ahhh, "Sweeter than honey to my mouth" ...savoring truth "I have esteemed the words of His mouth more than my necessary food"... I am celebrating the good news with my seat belt still fastened "Your word became to me joy and rejoicing in my heart". Yet learning the King's language, "She opens her mouth with wisdom, and on her tongue is the teaching of kindness"....positive words that cause my spirit to swell ..what I spread around....goes around, and comes back to me...a blessing or a curse....I wisely choose to speak blessings!Barbara Hoylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11789458949936651728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4111007803730909803.post-60907693784301734682016-11-19T14:38:42.446-08:002016-11-19T14:38:42.446-08:00The purpose of the Tabernacle in the life of Israe...The purpose of the Tabernacle in the life of Israel: It was given to God's people as a means of teaching His people about Him. Exodus 40:34 the Tabernacle was an identification of the presence of God. Heb 9:9-11 the Tabernacle was an illustration of God's plan of salvation for the world. John 1:14 the Tabernacle was an incarnation of the person of God for His people. Heb 9:23 + Rev 4-5 the Tabernacle was a prefigurtion of the pattern of God in heaven. Ark of the Covenant: Holy of Holies: Alter of Incense: Table of Showbread: Golden Candlestick: Laver: Altar of Burnt Offering.Barbara Hoylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11789458949936651728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4111007803730909803.post-38570529979196253542016-11-19T14:30:59.502-08:002016-11-19T14:30:59.502-08:00The content of Genesis: The generation of Abraham ...The content of Genesis: The generation of Abraham as the elected choice of God, to populate the established nation of Israel through whom God would bless all nations. The historical book of Genesis ends with God's chosen people in bondage outside the promised land of Canaan. The book of Exodus was written by Moses, the great lawgiver of Israel. The theme of the story is about the redemption of the Israelites. It shows that the family of Jacob (70 souls) developed into the nation of Israel estimated in population of over two million which included men in number of 600,000. The doctrinal purpose of Exodus: The Passover Lamb, the parting of the Red Sea, and the ever-present truth that obedience to God is necessary for a holy people. Exodus out of Egypt is evidence to God's faithfulness to the His covenant with Abraham, Jacob and Isaac. The Christological purpose of Exodus. Moses is the great deliverer of His people. Deut 18:15. Christ is also pictured in the Passover Lamb. The Lamb without flaw or blemish and was sacrificed for the sins of God's people. Ex 12 and 1 Cor 5:7. In the Tabernacle (a portable temple) Christ is again expected to arrive as the Messiah. According to the apostle John, this portrays Christ as He "dwelt among us" Literally, Jesus as God on earth, pitched His tent, His flesh temple to walk and talk among those who consistently could not maintain the faith in an invisible God. Finally, Christ is presented as our high priest who makes intercession for us. Heb 7:25. The duty of God's people follows their deliverance from the slavery of sin. Complete redemption involved more than getting the Israelites out of Egypt. It was also necessary to get the ways of Egypt, the world, out of God's chosen people. Like us today, people lust after the things of the flesh. Ex 16:3. The ten commands of God revealed the moral duties of God's people. The Tabernacle of worship is a teaching on how to approach God. Ex 25-40. God provided instructions for building the Tabernacle. The Tabernacle was a demonstration on how to worship God, or Jesus Christ. The Tabernacle sets forth a picture of the earthly ministry of Jesus. Door/gate of Tabernacle represents only ONE WAY to God. John 10:9 " I am the Door". The Brazen Alter, a substitution necessary for atoning sins. Mark 10:45 "I give My life a ransom for many". Laver: A purification is needed for God's presence. John 13:8 "If I do not wash you, you have no part in Me." Lamps: Illumination is needed to do God's work. John 8:12 " I am the Light of the world." Bread: Sustenance is needed for God's people. John 6:48 "I am the bread of life." Incense: Intercession is needed for God's people. John 17:9 "I am praying for them." Veil: There is a separation between God and His people. Heb 6:19 + 10:20 "Behind the curtain where Jesus has gone...for us." Mercy seat: Only blood can make atonement for sin. 1 John 2:2 "He is the expiation (satisfaction) for our sins" Priest: God must be approached through representation. Heb 9:25 "Entered the heavenly Temple. Heb 9:25 "Jesus entered once for all" Heb 9:12 Jesus offered His own blood for our sins. Just like the Tabernacle, the Aaronic priesthood prefigured the life of Christ. Aaron, the brother of Moses, was the first high priest of Israel.Barbara Hoylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11789458949936651728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4111007803730909803.post-32886651689220284972016-11-19T13:57:34.763-08:002016-11-19T13:57:34.763-08:00The outline of Genesis 1) The creation of man. 2)...The outline of Genesis 1) The creation of man. 2) The corruption of man. 3) The destruction of man. 4) The scattering of man.Barbara Hoylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11789458949936651728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4111007803730909803.post-62302791716431762232016-10-09T13:05:35.610-07:002016-10-09T13:05:35.610-07:00People have FAITH.

In order to get set free and stay free, we must admit we have sinned, and that our relationship with the Lord has been blocked. That sounds simple, but we live in a day and age of DECEPTION and DENIAL. No matter what has happened to us in our lives, or the heritage of sin through generations past, each of us are responsible for our choice to pray for forgiveness for our part. If you really want to be free, and live for the Kingdom of God instead of the kingdom of darkness, you will accept the responsibility to pray and be set free and healed.Barbara Hoylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11789458949936651728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4111007803730909803.post-26988461334984884772016-08-15T12:15:13.057-07:002016-08-15T12:15:13.057-07:00"He heals the brokenhearted and binds up thei..."He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds, curing their pains and their sorrows."

Amen."Barbara Hoylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11789458949936651728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4111007803730909803.post-44529894593611619972016-08-15T06:29:11.483-07:002016-08-15T06:29:11.483-07:00IDOLATRY (ISAIAH 44)
