It’s A New Season
My faith has stood in the commerce of heat. I have showed up for my preliminary hearing and have stood in the courtroom of God. Because I believed, it was accredited to my account. After reading books on: Name It..; Six Ways to Be Blessed; Decree and Declare, in the trying of my faith, I had to yoke my collar and stand courageously.
My summation is: I was tried in the fire, but I am coming out as pure gold. The conflict and affliction proved good for my soul. There, I received revelation–and experience with God. Moreover, I can empirically say that some things will not change, but God will give you the grace to go through. My faith has stood the test, and it is not about wealth or health–it’s trusting Him when you don’t know what to do.
God has the solution for every problem or concern, and His timing is always perfect.
A new season is up on me–I can see the glory. It is a season of power and prosperity. It is a fresh anointing flowing my way and everything that I need is resting in my Father’s hand.
My friend, trials will come. Do not think it is strange when they come upon you. However, God will make you strong in your weakness. He will also give you strength to stand.

Peace Like A River
Who can attain the mind of God and who can know the thoughts of the Father?
No one can speak like He speaks. His voice is like no other. If you have a mind to hear, you will hear when he guides, comforts, and instructs.
It was 4:30 AM, I was exhausted, mentally and physically, I had some concerns and I just wanted talk. I laid my head in His bosom and began to pray for my family. I prayed from my spirit–never opening my mouth–from the depths of my soul. That moment, I was drawn closer to Him– in the secret place. He answered and said in a still voice,
“Without God, life runs out of time, but with God, all things are accomplished, through you–in Him, at the appointed time.”
Who can speak like the Master. I was clay in His hands. Psalms 91 from the Old Testament delineates the awesomeness of being in such a place–it is peace like a river. I turned over and went back to sleep knowing that I can move forward. All things that are in His will, shall be accomplished–His words are breathtaking!

A Short Story: Loosed!
It was early evening; the conference had just ended and I was on schedule to catch my train. However, I needed a ride into the city. Jack and I were friends, he was one of the committee members who suggested I ride with Mario–a friend and member of the committee. I had seen Mario several times during our meetings. He would always greet me with a warm hello. Although I was a little nervous about riding with him, I said, “Okay.”
Minutes later, I was in Mario’s jeep and we were all set to go. Mario push the gear in reverse and quickly backed out of the spot. I held onto the armrest as we pulled out of the parking lot and onto the main road. Mario sped down the road toward the first traffic light–the jeep encountering every bump. My stomach felt as though I was on a roller coaster ride. O my God, who am I riding with,? I thought. “Mario, please slow down –I have motion sickness.” I said. “Okay Sis. Andrews.” He said with a smile.
Now a few miles away from the conference center, I was captivated by the amazing land form of mountains and their peaks, it was a breath of fresh air. While experiencing God’s thumbprint, Mario, a handsome young man, half my age, gave me salacious grin and spoke of how he admired me. My flesh was flattered, but my spirit was suspect of his approach. As the conversation went on, Mario became aggressive. He moved his hand to touch my leg, forcing me to push his hand away. I moved closer to the door and pulled down on my skirt so it would cover a porting of my knees.
When Mario realized I was not moved by his comments or suggestions, he made a quick detour from the main road. Now concerned, I asked, “Where in the world are we going?” Mario indicated that this was the best way to go. Although I was not familiar with the area, I knew the enemy had a plan. This was not paranoia, I had an epiphany– I was in danger, and Mario had the face of the enemy. The air in the jeep became dense. The jeep swerved making slight turns with the road.
Mario turned the wheel to make a sharp turn down an isolated dirt road. Without hesitation, I pulled my white and pink cell phone from my bag to call for help. Mario slammed down on the breaks as he grab my arm. I bit down on his hand and kicked his feet and legs. My phone dropped as he tightly held his grip. I reached for the door and pulled on the door knob. As the door slightly opened, he grabbed my hair and tried to snap my neck back–my spine tightened. I screamed to release the pain. Bracing myself on the door, I lift my leg and with all on my strength, I dug the heel of my shoe into his abdomen and genitals.
Mario screamed out with a vile curse and grabbed himself. I was free and able to flee. I pushed the door open and stumbled to get my balance. Something was wrong with my back, I could straighten up. I took a deep breath and grabbed my handbag from the car floor and ran as fast as I could toward the main road. Although I realized I didn’t have my phone, I kept running. Just as my feet hit the pavement, I saw the teetering headlights on his jeep coming toward me. I wasn’t sure what to do. Faintly, I heard the sound of a car and I turned around. In the distance, I saw headlights–a car was coming down the road. No trepidation–I was able to stand erect. I ran down the middle of the road to flag down the car. The red Saturn slowed down and stopped. It was a middle aged man. I frantically hit his car and asked him to let me in. He unlocked the door and I got in. “Just drive– drive!” I said. I then asked for his phone to call the police. As we drove off, I heard the screeching sound of Mario’s jeep. He sped pass us and quickly turned around to go in the opposite direction.
I began to calm down–I knew I was safe. Later that evening we were at the police station and my family arrived soon after. The police arrested Mario, a week later. This was his third sexual offense.
My friend, though it appears to be linked with God, try the spirit to see if it is God. Unequivocally, the enemy will expose his purpose. He will come appearing to be your help, moving aggressively to kill, steel and destroy. Break loose, even if you have to walk alone–God will never leave you or forsake you.

Grace & More Grace Shall You Be Established
From a damaged root–life emerges- God will bring forth a fresh BRANCH–a servant.
Who are you O great mountain? The ‘great mountain’ is symbolic of a great man who has made the decree that the work you started will not be completed. God reveals the enemy through revelation, availing us to give him notice that the mountain will become plain before the true kingdom builder of God. The servant of the Lord is encouraged to move forward with the anointing–the Spirit of the Lord. It is with grace and more grace that the work be accomplished.
Revelation is revealed through the Holy Spirit and the Word of God. Let’s examine one of the scriptures pertaining the power of God. Zechariah 4:9
The greatest display of God’s power are not necessarily shows of force, mighty acts, or creative splendor. Rather, the supremacy of God’s power is seen in the way He accomplishes His purpose through mere vessels of clay made mighty because He has infused them with His life.
The text addresses a worn and weary Zerubbabel, who, having gallantly laid the temple’s foundation, was about to succumb to discouragement. But the word of God makes a declaration that by the Spirit of God, Zerubbabel’s hands will complete the work God has destined for him.
Discouragement can always be answered with God’s ability to grace and empower the human soul. His might is sen by what HE does through the weak, the insignificant, the powerless–a Babe born in Bethlehem, a timid Gideon, a melancholy Jeremiah, a band of twelve ordinary men (Cor. 1:26-28).
Rest is this assurance: As long as the heart is turned toward Him in childlike trust, He will enable anyone to complete the work to which He has called them. Deut. 4:24/Job 19:25)
