Oh my friends, I have so much to tell you and so much the Lord is doing here, and it has been sooooooooooo long!! I just got back from a new journey with Him at the Inspirational Country Music Convention and Award Show at Trinity Music City inTennessee. Truly He whispered to me “do you not perceive it?” He has been speaking to me for months that He is doing a “new thing” and to forget about the former things. This ministry is being transformed, a girls magazine will be launching in January called
“Drama Queen for the King Magazine” which we have trademarked to help young girls learn the Word of God, hear from women who devote their gifts, talents, and time to the Lord, and to hear testimonies of redemption that are BIG!!! God is moving in ways I do not even know how to move!!! We are looking for strategic partnerships to help launch the magazine nationally and are in constant prayer for other women to walk beside us should the Lord lead them.
With all these exciting things happening, I have to confess to you that those “things” must wait because the Lord has a – message He wants me to share and although ministry is a beautiful thing to watch the Lord grow it and all the “stuff of ministry” is wonderful, it is about what God wants said, when He wants it said, and how He wants it said. It’s a matter of what’s on HIS heart and mind. It’s about saving souls first and delivering His message in complete obedience. Amen!!! So, I will update you when He allows, but for now soak in HIS heart TODAY!
Allow Him to speak to you!
For months now the Lord has been feeding me His heart on the state of our nation, and the state of the church. I posted not too long ago a message of warning He asked me to be faithful at sharing. I often wonder if we have ears to hear or if our hearts have become so hardened to the voice of God that we just choose what part of His WORD we want to hear. We think we know God yet we never open HIS WORD…the LIVING WORD to see His heart and His mind. We shout AMEN yet not realizing “IT IS I” He is talking to…not the world….but me “THE CHURCH.” Judgment begins in the house of the Lord according to His WORD. Do we believe His WORD? Before He gave me the song “Do you hear the warnings” He had actually already given me a song called “If My People
.” after a request from a friend came regarding a burden the Lord laid on her heart for this country. That if we do not turn the Lord is warning judgment on HIS people. But do we not truly believe it will not happen in our own lifetime. I mean if we are really honest with ourselves and God, do you live as if Jesus is coming today, tonight, tomorrow?
This is the heart of God. I do not write on demand really. He has to burden me with the song and then it just consumes my mind and heart. I am merely the vessel at that moment. I am attaching the lyrics below I pray the Lord will burden you as He has me to take a look at my own heart, to repent for things in our lives that have not brought Him glory, and to see fully through His eyes the truth of our own hearts. That for a moment we would be bold enough to ask Him to show us do we really really know HIM or are we mere Christians in name only? To seek His face alone, and to obey His Word. I could go on and on about this as my heart is so deeply burdened about it but I will let His song speak for itself.. We serve a merciful God, but He is a righteous judge and HE IS HOLY
…………We are called to be holy as HE is holy.. He is not after perfection….but obedience and repentance.
IF MY PEOPLE
Humility is gone
reverence is no more
distressed and overwhelmed
full of sin…no remorse
We have turned and walked away
from the one who gave us life.
Oh idolatry and greed
has replaced the risen Christ.
Where are the saints of the faith
oh the line of Abraham
the betrothed and adorned
for the sacrificial lamb.
Corrupted deep within
no more passion, full of pride.
When will the righteous lift their voice
we’re the adulterated bride.
Chorus:
But He said
IF my people
who are called by my name.
IF my people
would humble themselves and pray
If my people
would simply seek my face
If my people
Would turn from their wicked ways
If my people…
Misplaced hope, looking to man
Unsearchable things in the palm of your hand.
Divine healing, nations restored
Let us repent for the OPEN DOOR.
The clock is ticking, time is fast.
The King is coming, the Great I am
On a cloud, crown on His head
Filled with splendor, a sickle in His hand.
and He said
IF my people,
who are called by my name.
IF my people
would humble themselves and pray.
If my people
would simply seek my face
If my people
Would turn from their wicked ways
If my people…
Bridge:
We’d better cry out and cry loud
and fall upon our face.
We’d better put on our sackcloth
and mourn over our shame.
Then
He will heal out land…..oooh then He will heal our land….. Then He will heal our land
If
my people……………
II Chronicles 7:14 (KJV)
“If my people
which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”
Ezekiel 33:8-9…
When I say to the wicked man, ‘O wicked man, you will surely die,’ and you do not speak out to dissuade him from his ways, that wicked man will die for his sin, and I will hold you accountable for his blood.
But if you warn the wicked man to turn from his ways and he does not do so, he will die for his sin, but you will have saved yourself
Thank you Lord that you tell us in advance and thank you that you will remember my obedience in the small, but hard, things that you request. I know it is your desire that all will be saved and that your truth will be preached unashamedly. Grace is truth. For the truth shall set us free. Draw those who need you and those who know you draw them closer, let my life be a living sacrifice that they will know how I was far from you yet you came for me. Let them see how much you adore them and how their lives can change if they will grab tightly to your hand. Let us be willing to hear the truth in love and receive redemption. Bless you my Jesus….for you took my place. Thank you that you are mine and I am yours!
Love Much,
Shelly
