Favor by Mike Curley





Favor

By favor  we prosper, by favor we stand. 

By favor we increase in this promised land.

Favor with God and favor with man.
By favor we prosper, by favor we stand.
 

Uncommon favor like Abraham knew.
This favor's for me, this favor's for you.

For He's promised  to bless us in all that we do,
With uncommon favor  like Abraham knew!



Mike Curley





Genesis 12:1-4

New King James Version (NKJV)


12 Now the Lord had said to Abram:
“Get out of your country,
From your family
And from your father’s house,
To a land that I will show you.
I will make you a great nation;
I will bless you
And make your name great;
And you shall be a blessing.
I will bless those who bless you,
And I will curse him who curses you;
And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”




Deuteronomy 28:1-14

New Living Translation (NLT)


28 “If you fully obey the Lord your God and carefully keep all his commands that I am giving you today, the Lord your God will set you high above all the nations of the world.You will experience all these blessings if you obey the Lord your God:
Your towns and your fields
    will be blessed.
Your children and your crops
    will be blessed.
The offspring of your herds and flocks
    will be blessed.
Your fruit baskets and breadboards
    will be blessed.
Wherever you go and whatever you do,
    you will be blessed.
“The Lord will conquer your enemies when they attack you. They will attack you from one direction, but they will scatter from you in seven!

“The Lord will guarantee a blessing on everything you do and will fill your storehouses with grain. The Lord your God will bless you in the land he is giving you.

“If you obey the commands of the Lord your God and walk in his ways, the Lord will establish you as his holy people as he swore he would do. 10 Then all the nations of the world will see that you are a people claimed by the Lord, and they will stand in awe of you.

11 “The Lord will give you prosperity in the land he swore to your ancestors to give you, blessing you with many children, numerous livestock, and abundant crops. 

12 The Lord will send rain at the proper time from his rich treasury in the heavens and will bless all the work you do. You will lend to many nations, but you will never need to borrow from them. 

13 If you listen to these commands of the Lord your God that I am giving you today, and if you carefully obey them, the Lord will make you the head and not the tail, and you will always be on top and never at the bottom. 

14 You must not turn away from any of the commands I am giving you today, nor follow after other gods and worship them.

The Midnight Cry by Maria Woodworth Etter



This is one from the past that is for "Today"




The Midnight Cry by Maria Woodworth Etter

Hark!! the cry comes ringing high;
Now the Bridegroom cometh nigh.
Have your lamps all trimmed and bright,
Hearts made holy in His sight.
Joyful raise your minds above,
Fixed upon The Lord of Love.
Hark!!! the WARNING soundeth high,
Listen to The Midnight Cry!!
(In singing, repeat last two lines)


Raise the shout of victory,
Glory to the coming King:
Joy to all the Saints He brings,
Join the songs which angels sing:
Shout aloud the Victor’s praise;
We shall see Him face to face,
Hark the WARNING soundeth high,
Listen to The Midnight Cry.
(In singing, repeat last two lines)


Hail Him, then, the pierced LAMB,
Sacred wounds in side and palm;
Worship Him, with holy joy,
Praise Him without sins alloy.
Saints that sleep, soon He will bring,
Heaven’s anthem they shall sing;
Glory to The LORD on high,


Listen to THE MIDNIGHT CRY!!!
Listen to THE MIDNIGHT CRY!!!

Sun Stand Still by Faith Mascato



I have been moved the last couple days to post Spirit Inspired Poems from People other than myself. The poem below is by Faith Mascato. As soon as I read it, I recognized the voice of The Lord in it.

Like yesterdays post, it is prophetic instruction for "Today".


Some people have a very narrow view of the prophetic. When God is speaking to His people, through a person, whether it be in a spoken form, song, or a written form, it can be powerfully effective if received as such.


Read these words very carefully. Listen for The Voice of The Spirit. 


There can be so much going on around us. So much work, noise, confusion that we get caught up in the world around us spinning, EVEN IN MINISTRY, that we lose the ability to  wait and rest in God.


We need to be able to do that. As Chaos begins to reign in the world, we must find our rest and strength in The Lord!


Wait Upon Te Lord!!!! Rest In Him!!


In doing so, you will gain Wisdom and Power. The Lord will give your enemies into your hand.
            

           

           

            Psalm 4:4

               New King James Version (NKJV)

 Be angry, and do not sin.
Meditate within your heart on your bed, and be still.



           

          Psalm 37:7

             New King James Version (NKJV)
 Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him;
Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way,
Because of the man who brings wicked schemes to pass.



Joshua 10:12-13
New King James Version (NKJV)


Then Joshua spoke to the Lord in the day when the Lord delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel:
“Sun, stand still over Gibeon;
And Moon, in the Valley of Aijalon.”
 So the sun stood still,
And the moon stopped,
Till the people had revenge
Upon their enemies.




Sun Stand Still

Sun Stand Still
I am resting in God
Waiting in His Pleasure
Basking in His Light

Sun Stand Still
At high noon day
Let shadows cease
To cast their pall

Sun Stand Still
And shine on me
As I lean back against
My Fathers Delight

Sun Stand Still
And warm me within
And let the cares of life
Be as weights cast aside

Sun stand still and fill me to full
With the Glorious Light
Of Gods Deepest Love

Faith Mascato

Poetry by Joyce A. Boahene (Prophetic Instruction for "Today")



This woman is a mighty woman of God. Her poetry lately has been ringing in my spirit as very significant and instructive, as well as encouraging and edifying.



Our hope lies in Jesus precious Blood,
And not in anything that is man made of.
Our hope lies in our mediator,
And the one true God who is our Creator.
Our hope lies in His resurrection power,
And the strength that He gives in this day and this hour.
Our hope lies in His infallible Word,
And we are not moved by anything that we have seen or heard.
Our hope lies in His soon return,
To gather up the ones who are truly His own.


Joyce A. Boahene © 8/20/13



Lord, give courage to Your Children,
To stand strong in their faith.
And when they pray and seek You,
Come and meet them face to face.

Lord, give courage to Your Children,
To stand strong in the fight.
And let them walk in victory,
By the power of Your Might!

Joyce A.Boahene © 8/16/13

"And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony." Rev 12:11



Deep Darkness Upon The People

  T he Lord is faithful! He sees it all and still chooses to Love His Children. Imagine if we did the same to the fallen and broken.  We see...
