Can I Get A Refill?

Dehydration is a condition that occurs when the loss of body fluids, mostly water, exceeds the amount that is taken in. Many people, particularly older adults, don't feel thirsty until they're already dehydrated. That's why it's important to increase water intake during hot weather or when you're ill.

Many people are Spiritually Dehydrated and they don’t even know it.

Every day we pour of ourselves by helping others, speaking life into others and just day-to-day living but how many of us get replenished on a daily basis? Neglecting to refill leaves us dry, with less to pour out so we become less effective in our daily walk. Let’s look at the symptoms from a spiritual perspective:

Symptoms of Dehydration 

• Extreme thirst – Dry in our Walk
• Less frequent urination – Less to Pour Out to Others
• Dark-colored urine – Agitated and Touchy in our interactions; pouring out tainted words/things
• Fatigue – Just Tired, Weak and Weary
• Dizziness – Unable to Focus on our Goals or Journey
• Confusion – Don’t know what we doin’ half the time

This is the state that many live in but, it doesn’t have to be permanent.

There IS a Fountain…that never runs dry. A Well of Relief that is accessible to all who thirst.

You can find this Necessary Resource by picking up God’s Word and assembling yourself where Water is being poured out. Let God lead you to the Well this today…it may be in a church or it may be in front of your t.v. or radio for now but, He will lead you.

Matthew 5:6

Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.

Use your BEST Elle Varner voice today and say to God, “Can I Get a Refill” …He will respond.

2017...5777 - Year of The Sword: A Time of Separation for Preparation

As each new year approaches, I look to hear from God about what He is saying about each new season. We celebrate the "New Year" on the first day of January but in reality, the new season begins in the fall. (We will save this script for another time). At any rate, it is important that we have our ears and eyes open as to what is happening as each season approaches. There are very specific things that we must know in order to move accordingly. God may not tell us everything, but He definitely tells us what we need to know and exactly when we need to know it.

The Year of The Sword is the hour that we are in and here is what that means.

We are in a time of Great Separation with the Purpose of Preparation for the entrance of our soon coming King...Jesus. I am not privy to when Jesus will return, no one is, but what we do know is that we are closer today then we have ever been before.

The Sword according to the biblical meaning is the Word of God.

And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God - Eph 6:17 Hebrews 4:12 also tells us "For the word of God is living, and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and quick to discern the thoughts and intents of the heart." The time has come when people are being put into their chosen categories. Either one has sided with God or they have done the opposite and chose to make an alliance with the enemy. It doesn't matter what you hear people say or how many Sunday's in a row a person goes to church, the heart of man is what is being examined and the Examiner is The Lord. No longer will those who have not turned their hearts towards God be able to walk around as if they were alive; the decay of their hearts will be very visible to those who have eyes to see. People's motives will be separated from their actions and they will be dealt with accordingly. The church is also under warning. If you notice, I did not use an upper case "C", I used a lower cased one because I am not talking about the Body of Christ as this point...I am speaking of the building that people call a church. Within its walls is so much death. People are going in those places multiple times a week and leave the exact same way they came in and sometimes they are leaving in a worse state. Why? One reason is because the Word is not being preached. Just because the "preacher" stands there in front of you with a Bible in hand does not mean that you are getting the Word that God has for you. Watered-down truths mixed with the self-seeking performance of the "presenter" leaves people empty. The Word of God is Life...it is Strength. The Word of Man is a Band-aid and a Weak Crutch. Yes...God's Word will always do something for someone but when it is mixed with man's will and intentions, it does not go forth as God has purposed which leaves people dry. God is saying to the leaders of these "churches" to "Turn back to His Word. It is the Sword that will cut through sin, cut out hate and divide truth from error." "The mission is not to grow your membership, it is to grow the Kingdom...the True "Church".  "Pull The Sword Out". I blogged a month ago about the 2016 Election and if you read it, it is saying a similar thing to what is being said now. God has re-established order and a standard has been raised. Along with this order come the reinforcement of it and the Word is what we are to be measuring our lives to, not what the world says--the world definition of order will cause your to stumble and fall. The Sword is our Ruling Guide and The Sword is The Word of God. We cannot keep trying to be "politically correct" and careful with not offending others...souls are at stake. In all that we do, it must be according to God's leading and when He is at the forefront, all that we say and how we approach others will be out of Truth and Love. The Great Separation is Now and we will begin to see it all unfold. Some have said this is the Year of Jubilee and that is true as well because, with the Sword is dividing the wealth now, not man. Restoration is bound to take place when the Word of God is active and we will see this happening at rapid speed in this new season. I encourage you to walk into the new season with Divine Boldness...Sword in Hand and begin to live as God has called you to live. Protection has been called in place for you and Provision has positioned itself for you. Go Forth...

The Greatest Story Ever Told

I know that Christmas is still a little ways off but the message that we get from the experience of Mary and Joseph around the time of Jesus' Birth is something that is relevant throughout the year.

 Mary was carrying life in her belly; she embodied everything that the world needed to be saved from the wages of sin. Inside of Mary was peace, joy, healing, restoration, provision, guidance, love, miracles--everything that Jesus is and would do once He stepped foot on this earth was resting on the inside of Mary. 

When it came time for her to give birth to Greatness, she first went to an inn to deliver what God had put inside of her. Mary and Joseph were told that there was "No Room at the Inn". The place where it seemed fitting to go to have adequate shelter to complete this Divine Assignment, had no vacancy. The place that seemed like it would be a safe haven for her to deliver this precious child, had no space for her. The thing that made sense to her, did not accommodate her needs. 

Did she cuss out the innkeeper? Nope. 

Did Joseph give the innkeeper a piece of his mind or resort to violence because they were turned away?  No, not that either. The Bible gives us great insight as to Mary and Joseph's attitude about being turned away--it simply says that there was no room and left it at that. 

What happens next is that God provides that space for Life to Be Born. It was not what was expected. It was the most unlikely place for such a divine experience that the world was about to realize but, it was at the same time, the Purposed Place and according to God's Will. 

This Story is now, the Greatest Story Ever Told.

Beloved...God has placed Greatness on the inside of you--a Divine Assignment. He has put in you...life...to give to the world. He himself crafted such a powerful ministry inside of you that you will bring forth into this world. Don't be concerned with who turns you away. Don't trip about who says no to you when you are trying to do the most logical thing [in your mind] to bring forth the vision. 

Understand this...if God has purposed for you to give birth to something, He will make sure that it is accomplished. It may not be according to the norm. It may be the most unlikely place, in the most unlikely circumstances, but it will be done.

If you are turned away, keep your ears and eyes open to where God is leading because that Denial that you just received will work for your good. God has set this thing up so Grand, that the rejection you receive when striving to be obedient to God's promptings, will turn out to be one of the Greatest Stories Ever Told.

Be Encouraged.

The Sound of Trump Pence (Trumpets): Don't Miss What Is Happening! [VIDEO]

Don't Miss the Message...this is much bigger than a presidential election. What we see happening in our nation today is a Wake Up Call. The chaos that we are experiencing is for a reason...God is speaking to us. Are we listening? Our president-elect is Donald Trump, the Vice President is Mike Pence, Trump Pence--Trumpets. Listen to what God is saying...



 Biblical Meaning of The Trumpet
The trumpet is a symbol of considerable consequence in the Old and New Testaments. In general, it can signify an alarm of war, a call to assemble, or a command to march (see Numbers 10:1-10).

Various end-time prophecies show that a trumpet precedes the Day of the Lord (Joel 2:1; Zechariah 9:14-16), when Jesus Christ returns as King of kings and overthrows the nations of this world, establishing the Kingdom of God on earth.

 

We are be called to assemble...the Great Separation is unfolding right before our very eyes. 

2 Thessalonians 2:2-4

The Great Apostasy

2 Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, we ask you, ² not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of Christ had come. ³ Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin (lawlessness) is revealed, the son of perdition, ⁴ who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.

The process has began and is beginning.

The Word of God says that we don't need to be troubled about what is going on...Jesus has not come back...yet. What we must do is to recognize what time we are in and what we are to do. Don't devise your own plans to address what is happening...they won't work. The Plan is Salvation--the Gospel MUST be preached. Seek God for clear direction.

The entrance of lawlessness has come and is stronger than it has ever been before. The strength is not so much in the occurrences,the strength is in the revelation of it. Mess...crazy mess has taken place since the beginning of time, the difference now is that it is in our faces and no longer hidden.

The Separation is now. The Great Apostasy is in motion.

Wake Up and Hear what God is speaking.

Presidential Election 2016: ORDER...It's In Order and For Order!

After hearing the results of this monumental election and seeing many comments about the outcome, I cringed at what I saw. I read comments like:

"Time to get 5 jobs"

"America is going to hell"

"No more government assistance or food stamps"

"I hate life"

"This wins says that LGBT, Blacks, Muslims and other minority people don't matter"

and on and on...

After all of these words of despair, I quickly got informed about what is really happening.

This is so much more than just "Who Took Office"...what has taken place is so much bigger than what many are focusing on.

Order is the Agenda.

I hear God saying..."ORDER"...I am calling things in Order!

 Order = the arrangement or disposition of people or things in relation to each other according to a particular sequence, pattern, or method.

God, not man, is calling people and things to arrange according to His Divine Will. 

We now have our 45th Presidency...let's look at the number 45 and see what is being said to us.

45  Provision / Protection / Preservation by Yahweh

Another source says that 45 also means Preservation and 45 (40+5) means 

40 Trials; Probation; Testings 

5 Grace; God's goodness; Pentateuch (first five books)

In other words...this is a time of testing to see if we are walking according to God's Grace (Unmerited Favor) and His Goodness. The Pentateuch or the Law of God is the foundation of our Faith...
Are we walking accordingly?

We are getting back to the basics.

We, as a people, have allowed the entrance of celebrated and accepted sin into America. We have abandoned the original foundation in an attempt to build a new one. We have embraced what is not like God and we have even gone so far as to welcome it in; we have invited it with balloons, a red carpet, and a photo op. There are things that God would say are not like Him that we have determined to be "ok". There has been practices and procedures that we have decided would be good for America that God would say is not good at all.

We have also put our futures in the hands of man and turned our allegiance to the creature rather than the Creator. We trust in our government to provide for us more that we trust God. Many have simply taken a back seat in the vehicles of their lives and have allowed the "Powers that Be" to take the wheel...driving them to a place that they really don't want go be but have become too lackadaisical  to change direction. No More!

Let's get one thing really clear here...God loves all people, every last one of us! What He does not do is condone sin of ANY kind. Whether it is Idolatry, Pride, Envy, Wrath, Gluttony, Lust, Sloth or Greed, God says NO MORE! We no longer have permission to sin, it is no longer acceptable. The standard has been raised again; the bar has been lifted. We are being called to think higher--beyond this present realm and way of doing things--into seeking God and His Strategic Plan for our  Lives. We can no longer look to man to define, refine or supply for us, it is God and has always been God. Today, we will realize this.

We have always been a people of free will but God has always set boundaries in place so that we understand what is and is not righteous in His eyes. This doesn't mean that we can't do what we please, we absolutely can. It means that we don't get a co-signer for unrighteousness. ORDER is being re-established. We will have no other choice but to recognize God as the Source of all things.

What is it that we need to do? Glad you asked! Here are 3 simple things:

1. Connect or reconnect with God
 Learn who He is and what he means to your life.
2. Pray for His direction and His guidance.
Seek Him concerning the steps that you are to take.
3. Use the Gifts/Talents that He placed in you to live the life He has called you to.
Tap into the inner resources that he has given you. 

What God will do is be God! Provision, Protection, and Preservation is by His Power alone.


He got this...and through Him, We got this too!
