God in conversation with you ? Hmmm, you may say, far fetched and not likely !!
I would ask you in return ... and why not? My Father is not a figment of my imagination. He is real, almighty and all powerful, alive and He talks to me.....
"Let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven." Matt 5:16
.......
I send my angels to touch you and My Word is your food and water - like My body is the bread of life and My blood is shed for your eternal life. I don't shout or breathe fire, you will hear My voice as "gentle whisper". Watch out for me and listen for My voice. You are my beloved child and I am taking you to be light in dark places, that people may know and hear My Word.
You may feel like Daniel in the lion's den but I am with you and my presence surrounds you like an invisible mantle. You will have My strength and know my protection as I send you out for my kingdom purposes.
Praise be to God, Amen

There's no time like the present to be with God !
To simply stop in a busy schedule and say "How amazing is our God". Amen.
I have been privileged to have some incredibly powerful and life changing ministry sown into my life in the past year, with where God has led and taken me and He is directing this pen to share some of that teaching with you my friends.
This is the one of those lessons and each lesson I am being taught is a pearl that God is depositing in my life. Pearls are also blessings and blessings need to be shared.
When life gets busy and we are frenetically busy finding little or no time to be with God, God never gets too busy to be with us or to spend time with us. One of the important lessons God taught me through a message given by Pastor Stovall Weems of Celebration Church, Jacksonville, Florida is how critically important it is to protect our personal time with God and how we should do everything in our power to protect this with all we have. Everyday now when I wake, I say: My God, I'm coming after you.
For us to stay fresh and on fire for God, we have to spend daily time with Him. How can we expect a relationship to grow and flourish if we aren't prepared to invest of ourselves into it ? What is one of the things that we have and can give of freely .... our time !
This is not a lesson in how to manage our time, rather it's about understanding how we spend our energies. As Pastor Stovall described it, " Time with God is number 1 !!" and if we don't have a freshness to give our best energy to God, we start to compromise and lose our passion for Him. Is that really what you want ? I know I don't. It's where I used to be and I thank God everyday now that He has brought me from that desert and dryness to a place where I hunger for Him and want to be with Him daily and spend time with Him. You should see how grumpy and disoriented I become when I have compromised starting my day with Him.
He waters and feeds me daily from a life spring and living bread.
At first I thought it was about a regular quiet time with God or a particular place or structure that was necessary, until I realised that I have that conversation with God all day now and it's anytime, anywhere and anyplace. The time I spend with His Word and in quiet prayerful conversation with Him now is awesome. I know I am talking to my Father and I know He hears and leads me.
Perhaps something in this little pearl will touch you too and cast a light into a dark space for you.
God Bless
