You are on Holy ground

The Lord commends us for wanting our “hearts desire to be aware of His presence continually” (Jesus Calling Nov 1^st)…

He reminds me…my petitions..my deepest needs and prayers… fall onto holy ground, when I come to Him

We have the gift of the Holy Spirit in us!!… Access to the MOST Holy of Holy..Who prays on our behalf, even when we do not even know what to pray…

Lord, THANK YOU.… for your Holy Spirit lives in ME…Your Rivers of Living water flow through me.  I am refreshed in your presence.  You are My God, and I will Praise your name! 

Come to Him with ALL your needs…you are on Holy ground

Trust Him with ALL your circumstances…you are on Holy ground

Accept HIS peace He offers you today!...you are on Holy ground

Romans 8:26 (New International Version)

 ²⁶ In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans

Hebrews 7:25 (New International Version)

²⁵ Therefore he is able to save completely^[a] those who come to God through him, because he always lives to intercede for them.

1 Corinthians 6:19 (New International Version)

¹⁹ Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own;

Exodus 3:5 (New International Version)

 ⁵ “Do not come any closer,” God said. “Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground.”

John 14:27 (New International Version)

²⁷ Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.

What Do I Know of Holy

I Dare you to Move…A self reflection

He said to me..You do not need to be stuck in your old ways anymore…the chains have been broken and you are FREE from what paralyzed you.  I dare YOU to move…Repent, Be refreshed, and Be Renewed in Me..GO and Live!!!  Be who I have called you to be!

If we want to “see” Him “Move” through our circumstances, we must come to Him with a penitent heart, asking for forgiveness, and cleansing of our old ways…Lord wash me and transform me!  I want Your Will to be Glorified through me..to do good and affirm Your will in my life!

 AMEN!

Proverbs 28:13-14 (New International Version)

 ¹³ He who conceals his sins does not prosper,
       but whoever confesses and renounces them finds mercy.
 ¹⁴ Blessed is the man who always fears the LORD,
       but he who hardens his heart falls into trouble.

Isaiah 58:11 (New International Version)

 ¹¹ The LORD will guide you always;
       he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land
       and will strengthen your frame.
       You will be like a well-watered garden,
       like a spring whose waters never fail.

John 10:10 (New International Version)

¹⁰The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.

1.    Leave it at His feet today

2.   Ask Him… for who I can bless today?

3.   Take time to be quiet today, and listen for His plan for me

4.  Celebrate!!! We have ACCESS to the mystery of His will, by the blood of Christ

5.   Rejoice!!....We have Hope in our Lord, and this hope will not disappoint..We have the holy spirit in us!  We are anointed!..the glory and mystery is in YOU!..the hope and glory of God!

Romans 5:5 (New International Version)

⁵And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us.

²⁷To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.

Psalm 23:5 (New International Version)

 ⁵ You prepare a table before me
       in the presence of my enemies.
       You anoint my head with oil;
       my cup overflows.

1 John 2:27 (New International Version)

²⁷As for you, the anointing you received from him remains in you, and you do not need anyone to teach you. But as his anointing teaches you about all things and as that anointing is real, not counterfeit—just as it has taught you, remain in him.

Seeking Wisdom...

Father, I lay at your feet my petitions. 

I ask that you would quiet my mind, so that I may begin to hear your still small voice.  Allow me to just let go of what I have just laid at your feet, and be silent.  Speak boldly to me today through all my senses…help me to just be still and know that you are God.  Comfort me with patience, as I wait for your wisdom.

Thank you, for your word affirms my Trust in You for wisdom:

Proverbs 2:1-5 (New International Version)

Moral Benefits of Wisdom

 ¹ My son, if you accept my words
       and store up my commands within you,

 ² turning your ear to wisdom
       and applying your heart to understanding,
 ³ and if you call out for insight
       and cry aloud for understanding,
 ⁴ and if you look for it as for silver
       and search for it as for hidden treasure,
 ⁵ then you will understand the fear of the LORD
       and find the knowledge of God.

Proverbs 3:5-6 (New International Version)

 ⁵ Trust in the LORD with all your heart
       and lean not on your own understanding;
 ⁶ in all your ways acknowledge him,
       and he will make your paths straight. ^[a]

In Jesus name, Please hear my prayer

HE Speaks...

A Blog by Kristen Caldwell

Isaiah 30:15 This is what the Sovereign LORD, the Holy One of Israel, says: "In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength..

This verse, among many others, have led to rich time communing with our Lord, and to journaling many of my thoughts..as He speaks to me.

I have been compelled, in my quiet time, as well as the encouragement of fellow sisters in Christ, to begin a blog. 

First and foremost, this is NOT about me :)   My hope is that this is a record of journaling that will inspire you to dig deeper into what He might be saying to You today. 

HE speaks to us in SO many WAYS!  The question is...do we open up ALL of ourselves, and ALL of our senses..to what He would have for us today.  So often our days are bombarded with distractions, that we miss the details of HIS presence in our day, and we go it alone.

This is truly a new journey for me.  I am not sure how often I will post..I suppose as I am spirit led, the postings will arrive. 

It is my wish to direct these posts specifically to our women's bible study group.  I hope to journal thoughts, after reflection in our group bible study time, and current thoughts from our women's bible study. 

I encourage you to be a partner, and post and share your thoughts for the day, and how HE Speaks to YOU!    Maybe a scriptural verse that really spoke to you today, maybe share a Divine interruption, and how You HEARD HIM speaking to you through the moment. 

As we stand together as part of the body of Christ, we strengthen each other:

Ecclesiastes 4:12 Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.

Mathew 18:20 "For where two or three gather together as my followers, I am there among them."

Although I will be sharing how He speaks to me, I am hoping this will become a blog that shares how HE speaks to all of us!

On a creative note, I also hope to incorporate other media, such as music and pictures into the blog.

Although this blog is directed primarily towards our women's group, I would encourage you to share with anyone you feel to compelled to send it to.  Sometimes the words escape us, but a specific scriptural verse, or shared thoughts from another sister, might be just the encouragement you can pass on to another in need.

SO..hear begins a new journey for me, and for you to share and BE BOLD in your faith on how HE Speaks to you!
