I'm not sure I even know where to begin. The last 2 weeks have been *super stressful* to say the least. But this weekend was **SUPER SUPERNATURALLY STRESS RELIEVING!!** what did I do? nothing much that would appear out of the normal. I slept, I cleaned house, but most importantly, I spent time with my grandchildren!! I heard Eloheim's voice speak to me so many times this weekend. Actually, He never stopped speaking, I was just so busy & so stressed, it was difficult for me to hear Him.
But thanks to our study on Wednesday & listening to His voice, & even what was shared in *church* this morning & then what my friend shared with me over iced tea this afternoon.
Soooooo, back to the subject of *strength*.
Our *little* study group is a special treasure, to me, & to Yahweh. and trust me, though we might be *little* in number, there is NOTHING LITTLE about us! I find strength in our studies, I find strength in our fellowship.
I also find strength in Yahweh's words to me. Trust Me, lean on Me, listen to Me, spend time with Me. Study My word, no really, STUDY MY WORD, in depth and as you have never studied before!
There was much I heard over the last 2 weeks, but 2 things stuck with me the most, one was that last part, "Study My word, no really, STUDY MY WORD, in depth and as you have never studied before"! it coincided with what we studied Wednesday evening about the "Paleo-Hebrew" alphabet. I'm so excited to get started. the scriptures that were shared from Daniel (hiding the scriptures) & John (revealing the scriptures) & the parable about the woman who lost 1 coin, spoke volumes to my spirit. I know, I need to share more information, and I will, just not tonight.
The other thing that stuck with me was what I heard at church this morning: "I AM NOT HERE TO FIGHT, I AM HERE TO WIN!!"
I REPEAT,
"I AM NOT HERE TO FIGHT, I AM HERE TO WIN!"
Yeshua did not come to earth to fight,
HE CAME TO WIN!
The other morning, getting ready for work, I found myself in tears, exhaustion had finally taken it's ugly final blow. As I called out to Eloheim, words of pain, exhaustion on every level, and yes, maybe even a few words of fear (the 'what if' kind); I at once felt His presence, His peace, His strength & His words, "I already hold your victory in My hand, just REST in Me & watch it happen!!" I believe those words were confirmed this morning at church, but since that very moment I have felt His peace, His SHALOM PEACE (nothing missing, nothing broken, nothing out of place), abiding within me. It carried me through work that day, and kept building stronger within me as I enjoyed my weekend.
I debated whether to share this with anyone, it's so very difficult for me to admit weakness, to anyone; but then more than once, in different ways, I heard Him say, my dreams, the work He is doing in me, is not to be kept to myself, but is to be shared. Shared, if for no other reason than to solidify it in my mind, but also, hopefully, it will strength someone else reading this. Someone who is finding they are feeling stressed to the maximum & exhausted beyond definition.
So, it's now 9pm & time for me to put this away for the evening. Please, be blessed & know you are not alone. WE are not alone.
