The Retreat

There is so much I could say about the retreat, it was absolutely the most spirit-filled couple of days I have ever experienced in my life thus far. The Holy Spirit showed up in all power and the level of obedience on our part was prompt. I love all of my girls, they are truly my friends. You don't get to say that about a lot of people but I can say that about these 5. We accomplished exactly what we set out to accomplish and Yahweh straightened some crooked paths. He provided us with answers that we desparately needed and also left us with some more questions:). I am so grateful for this weekend it allowed me to see a glimpse of what Yahweh has for POC and our own individual lives. I am still resting in his presence and what an awesome place to be. This is where healing, revelation, deliverance, and new beginnings take place. I will never be the same again and that's a great thing!!!!!

Expectancy of this Weekend

This weekend will be the first POC retreat and I am so excited about it. It is 6 of us all together that make up POC. Yahweh has blessed me by putting 5 wonderful women in my life. We will get to spend some time together praying, playing and developing our vision. We are a unique group of women, with different giftings but one common goal and that is to serve Yahweh in spirit and in truth. He creates the vision and we just walk it out. It is an awesome way to live your life knowing you are in the will of Yah and your steps are being ordered daily. I believe Yahweh has planned something marvelous for this weekend above anything we could ask or even think. I know when we return we will all be changed and we will have graduated to a new level in the Holy Spirit and in faith. Until I return................

Workshop at a Homeless Shelter

On Thursday of last week I had an opportunity given by a great woman of Yahweh Ms. Diva to speak at a homeless shelter for women about inner/outer image. I was kind of nervous at first because it seemed as if every time I tried to prepare for the workshop the Holy Spirit would not let me. I got out my notebook and I felt the Lord saying not now. So I went there with some notes I had written a long time ago when I was preparing for this kind of opportunity. I got there and Yahweh just filled my mouth with the words to speak. I didn't even look at my notes.

The women were very interactive and they seemed to really get it when I told them that whatever they feel on the inside reflects the outside and they have to change the inner image of who they are and get a picture of who and where they want to be and focus on that. I also told them if that can't see it then they will never SEE it. Everything comes from your spirit when you physically see it that is because the blue print was already drawn on the inside and then the image was built on the outside. Your hope is the blue print and faith is the builder. If you have no hope faith can't fill it.

I believe the women went away with an understanding that you are not your circumstance or your situation because that is what can be seen, it is what you are trying to birth on the inside of you that is what you are. I likened it to being pregnant you don't know how Yahweh gets all the molecules and things inside your body to operate and form this little person, but you know your pregnant. Your imagination starts to take hold and you are convinced your having a baby, so the same is for everything in your life when you get pregnant with it you have to give birth to it and no one can convince you otherwise. Yahweh has impregnated all of us with something and if we take or vitamins and do the right thing(read the word and listen for instruction) your baby will be born.

For the outer image I gave them a lot of great fashion tips and personal tips like always keep your nails clean and filed, clear polish would be a plus. Also never wear white underwear under white pants, white is never the same shade. They really identified with the nails and about three stories were told about that one involving a lady being caught in a credit card scam because when she went to pay and the cashier noticed her nails and knew she didn't have the money she was spending and called the cops and the lady was arrested. Another was an undercover cop posing as a homeless man and the people noticed he wasn't homeless because his nails were clean. We had great laughs and information was well received.

I believe I received instuction about my image consulting business, it will not be geared toward adults. Yahweh has shown me that it will be a image and style consulting firm that will go to the schools and hold workshops for highschool and college age girls, to help them with their inner image. He has also shown me that I will be a mentor to these girls and young women and they wil come to me for prayer. These workshops will sought after by other schools and states. At the POC Academy this will be a mandatory class for the kids and guess what the best part is, Yahweh has shown me my husband teaching the boys!!!!! I am pregnant with this and I will give birth with all of dear friends as the midwives. My hope is drawing the blueprint.

Be Anxious for Nothing

Yesterday was an interesting day, my car decided to stop on me. I received a jump from a guy at my job and then I went to the laundry. Well the car stopped again and I was around the corner from a auto shop so I asked the guy for a jump and he gave it to me and said to bring it around so he could check it out. I did this and he said I needed and alternator and a new battery which would cost me $365.00 installed and he could do it right then, it would only take an hour. I was like great now I have to spend this kind of money and put it on my credit card that I have not used in over a year. I called my husband and couldn't reach him then I called my cousin and my dad, they said get it fixed it sounds like a good price.
I then went over to an auto parts store and found out how much the parts cost and from what the guy told me it would be about the same price. So after I did all this I told the mechanic okay fix my car I will wait. He said now he would have to do it tomorrow. Long story short I took the train home and settled it in myself that I would charge it and then take money from savings and pay it.
When I got to work I felt uneasy so I decided I would take it from the place and use the guy that I usually deal with. I asked the garage foreman at my job to take me to get my car and explained the situation to him. He said it seems like a good price but let me call the guy I deal with, these guys will really take care of you I'll tell them your my sister. So I took it over there and by the end of the day they fixed my car. This is the blessing part, I only needed a new battery, not an alternator and they only charged me $65.00!!!!!! It's like I got the battery for free because their hourly rate is $60.00.
Yahweh is ever taking care of me and he did not allow the enemy to steal from me. He sent me to the right person to receive my blessing. As long as I allow him to order my steps, listen to the prompting of the Holy Spirit and cast my cares on him, He always causes me to prosper.

Yahweh is the Owner, I am the Manager

This is really a revelation to me, let me start from the beginning. Over a year ago I decided that I would not do anymore overtime at my job. I would just trust Yahweh for it and not try to do it in my own strength. Well anytime I would get extra money I would praise Yah and then spend it on something I really wanted and some needs. In February I was reading One Word from God can Change your Life by Kenneth and Gloria Copeland. I was reading the chapter on finance and got a revelation that when you get your harvest don't spend it all on yourself make sure to put some back in the ground. At this time I had extra money and I said you know what Lord from now on any extra money I get I will give you half and spend the other half.

Since November I have had overtime on all of my checks and I don't go looking for the overtime it chases me down. I am asked to take special trips and even regular trips seem to last longer than usual. I have seen an increase like never before. I have shown myself to be a faithful steward. My Pastor has started a series on stewardship and he made such a great point. Yahweh is the owner, we are the managers of his stuff so we should be asking him what he wants us to do with his stuff. Stop thinking you are the owner!! You have to be a faithful steward and Yahweh says in his word who can find one. Remember the parable of the stewards with the five talents. As I write this I have given Yahweh complete control of the decisions I make in my life and like my great friend Neubela said I am soooo free.

Just to testify how the word is true and Yahweh gives seed to the sower since I made my decision I have been able to sow 1,222.00 since the end of February. Working the extra hours is not grievous because I now have extra and I am able to be a blessing to whoever Yahweh chooses. I have been asking him what to do in all things and you know what he answers right away. I say Lord what do you want me to do today, I would like to do xy and z. Then he orders my steps, this is the greatest place to live when you don't have to figure it all out.

I am truly living in the fullness of the BLESSING!!!!!!!!
