GOD IS DOING AWESOME THINGS…

108God is doing AWESOME things in the earth. He wants to do greater things through you. Your bold confidence in God makes the enemy nervous. 

You have the mind of Christ….if you are born again, and are renewing your mind. God wants to fill you with divine wisdom and revelation. 

God is giving you wisdom to take uncharted territory. What are you afraid of? Your marriage falling apart? Your children straying? Are you afraid of accidents, being alone, death, failure, financial issues, the future, old age, sickness, to doing something new? Are you afraid your business will fail or you won’t have insurance after the next election? Perhaps you worry that you will never find that perfect mate. Or maybe you are afraid you have messed up too much and that God doesn’t love you, that He won’t forgive you, and that God finds you unacceptable to Him. 

Wow….to be human is to be vulnerable, with all its feelings and emotions and times of weariness due to struggles in life. Satan plays negative tapes, and plays on these areas of weakness, accusing us day and night. He is relentless in his evil plots to destroy lives. 

God goes to extreme measures to make Himself known to us. Satan goes to great lengths to deceive all mankind. Satan comes at a young age to cripple you so that you never step into your full destiny with God. Satan wants your thinking messed up so you have wrong perception and rejection issues. He wants you to have a root of bitterness in your heart so that every little thing sends you off the charts, firing off at the mouth, and spewing things you later regret.

When you have an unhealed heart and don’t know your worth and value in the sight of God, you may roll your eyes and assume wrong things about people that God has sent to help you, steer you back on track, or to totally bless you beyond your wildest imagination and dreams. The enemy of your soul wants you to live offended and to miss God’s best.  

Choose today…to step into greater destiny by allowing God to heal your heart and to rule and reign where you have not allowed Him to be LORD. It may be your mouth, your emotions, or it may be your character….God wants you to be the same person…from home….in the car….to the office…to the church. 

God wants you to be in health and to prosper. He wants you to live the abundant life through His Son Jesus Christ. He wants to connect you in divine alignment for divine assignments with other people. 

It’s time to STOP worrying, stop believing the lies of Satan, and stop listening to his lies in the first place. In this life, we are all engaged in spiritual warfare. No matter if you believe it or not, there is a war going on around us all…between good and evil.

We must accept the clear evidence of God’s love for us, remembering always that the battle belongs to the LORD.

Take a look at the promises associated with God’s name in Scripture: THE LORD OF HOSTS: Yahweh Tsebaoth 

Be still, and know that I am God!

I am exalted among the nations,

I am exalted in the earth.”

The LORD of hosts is with us;

the God of Jacob is our refuge. (Psalm 46:10-11 NRSV)

 

O LORD of hosts,

happy is everyone who trusts in you. (Psalm 84:12)

Return to me, says the LORD of hosts, and I will return to you, says the LORD of hosts. (Zechariah 1:3).

Remember that no one can thwart the plans of the Lord of HOSTS (Isaiah 14:24-27)

Then those who revered the LORD spoke with one another. The LORD took note and listened, and a book of remembrance was written before him of those who revered the LORD and thought on his name. They shall be mine, says the LORD of hosts, my special possession on the day when I act, and I will spare them as parents spare their children who serve them. (Malachi 3:16-17 NRSV).

The stop sign is a the one I saw every morning I left the hospital to go home and shower and change when my husband spent 25 days in Mercy Hospital…through two open heart surgeries. The full account is in my book: A LEAP OF FAITH (25 Days at the Mercy Seat). Look at the Father’s love 

Don’t live through your emotions…live by faith. Don’t allow fear to stop you…..press through…and partner with God so He can reveal divine connections, divine alignment, and divine assignments for your future……YOU CAN DO IT!

GOD’S PRICELESS TREASURE (How To Overcome Challenges, Be Transformed and Know Your Purpose)

A LEAP OF FAITH (25 Days At The Mercy Seat)

THE MIDNIGHT HOUR (Will America Turn Back To God?)

I WANT MY GRAPES…THE NEW WINE

Written by Deborah. Posted in Uncategorized

awesome-grapes-full-hd-wallpaper-for-desktop-background-image-free-downloadChange is coming. A shift is happening….you better make sure your navigation system is working properly. While we are moving forward in any new direction, we need to know better roads and ways of making it to our destination. New roads are made, change happens, and unless you update your navigation system, you may be taking old roads. 

God wants us to work smarter, not harder. 

God has ordered your footsteps. Jeremiah 29:11 declares you have a purpose and it is good… God wants you to be in health and prosper. Prosper means to break out, break forth, and breakthrough.

Any of us can take a wrong step. In my latest book: THE MIDNIGHT HOUR (Will America Turn Back To God?)…I shared the story of being led by the Spirit, being delayed on a trip to Kiawah, and how God ordered our steps to miss a wreck on the highway…and sent us on a different route safely to our destination. We were on I-77 and the navigation system informed us to TURN AROUND.  I called my husband to ask if he needed something and told him what happened and that I sensed the Holy Spirit was warning me through the system to turn back. The trip to Kiawah is straight down 77 to the next interstate, so there was no reason in the natural for the vehicle to turn us around. However, GOD knew the reason. I stopped at a nearby store to pick up something and when walking out the doors, my phone rang. It was my husband asking where I was…and informing me that he had left his keys in the car I was driving. I turned around and met him….and me and Mother continued onward to Kiawah. When we came up on the five car pileup…and eleven miles of stopped traffic, we both knew the Holy Spirit had ordered our steps. I live in awe of the Father’s love and how He sometimes will show us…..the why behind the what….to encourage us. 

Much like using the GPS system…which I call God’s Personal System through the Holy Spirit…where we are led by the Spirit of God…we can take a different route to avoid obstacles, avoid wrecks, and stay on track to our destination in peace. 

You need the Holy Spirit….to lead, guide, direct, and comfort you. God has equipped you to take uncharted territory…learn to hear Him at the slightest whisper at the door of your heart…and don’t ignore small instructions. The Holy Spirit is the New Wine…the Spirit of God that comforts, guides, leads, directs, and warns us. 

Remember the goodness of God and listen to Him for a fresh start…each new morning. He wants you to be like Joshua and Caleb, and go for the grapes in the Promise Land. He has already defeated the giants, we have to go in and take the land. 

The Bible declares that if you are led by the Spirit of God, you are a Son of God. He will show you better ways to do life. 

The most important thing outside giving your life to Jesus and receiving the gift of salvation is to be made whole. God wants us to remind Him of His Word on a daily basis.… 

The word remember doesn’t just mean to recall—it means put together and make whole. Dismember mean to take apart.  Sometimes when things look like they are falling apart, God is putting them back together and making it better. 

Pray daily:  I bind myself to the Will of God. God has a great plan for my life. I thank God for wise counsel and great associations. God keeps me in order, on His timing, and in divine position. 

 God loves you with an everlasting love.

HIS love and Mine,

Deborah Starczewski

 

 

SUCCESS TO SIGNIFICANCE

Written by Deborah. Posted in and Leaders, FOLLOWING JESUS, Listening With the Heart, Uncategorized, Wisdom

verseoftheday

The difference between success and significance is as vastly different as pride to humility. How our lives impact others is far more reaching than just here on earth—but in the light of eternity. If you have ever watched the movie..WHAT A WONDERFUL LIFE…you will see how our lives are like a beautiful tapestry, knit together by the hand of God. When we begin to see what God sees, we start to connect the dots and see the hand of God at work behind the scenes, making an impact on souls. We touch the lives of everyone we meet—leaving some kind of impression. What kind of impression are you leaving?

When someone doesn’t do something like you think they should, do you mock, laugh, joke, and ridicule? Or, do you recognize that everyone is unique and individually gifted in different ways—where all are necessary in the Body of Christ? What is your heart response?

Do you take the time to get to know people, or are you too busy to stop and notice? People matter to God and they must to us as well. 

Begin to pray Ezekiel 36:26 in order for God to change your heart to be more like His. We are being conformed to the image of Jesus Christ or either becoming more like the world. 

God sent His Son Jesus to deliver us from this present world system. We are not intended to become like what God sent His Son to deliver us from…something to think about today.
