It's already yours

S: “But there remained seven tribes who had not yet been allotted their grants of land. Then Joshua asked them, “How long are you going to wait before taking possession of the remaining land the LORD, the God of your ancestors, has given to you?” Joshua 18:2-3 NLT

O: The land is already there's. Since the days of Abraham when God gave him the promise. All the Isrealites had to do was possess the land. Yet here we are decades later  in the book of Joshua. The wandering in the wilderness is over, the battles against the giants are over but  7 tribes have yet to be allotted their land. It's your land! In the chapter before we read there were women who went to Joshua to receive their portion of land along with the men of their tribe it was given them. They asked and it was give . These 7 tribes however. Joshua asks then how long are you going to wait to receive the land that's already been given to you. The land that is already yours. The land that the Lord your Gid has given you? How long are you going to wait?

A: In the beginning God made men in his image and made women by the men's rib. He was in awe of what he made and had to take a day to admire her being. In the beginning God created me for a specific purpose. The purpose he has known way before I was in my mothers womb. He has set me apart. He has promised me my gifting and my calling will make room for me. How long will I wait to possess the promise that is already mine!? It's mine! When it comes to being the true Liz I most declare Gods promises are mine just as Kamea proclaims mine, my necklace, my car seat, my food, my water. It's time to possess what's mine! My God, my trueself, my marriage, my spouse, my child, my gifting, my calling, it's time to be allowed what's already mine!

P: Heavenly Father, you have brought me out of the wilderness. I have had victory over the Giants in my life. It is time I possess the things you have already given me. I just want to thank you for never given up on me. Thank you for never forgetting your promise. I praise you for listening to those who stood in the gap and prayed for me. You are sovereign oh God! How merciful and magnifenxt you are! Be with John as he is wandering now. Be also with Zakai, may your face shine upon him, protect him from all that surrounds him that is not of you. From the top of his head to the soles of his feet protect him. May Jonathan also be protect by your mighty hand. May he live in your abundance forever. Lead him and guide him in all the ways he should go. In Jesus precious name, amen.

Psalm 91

O: As I prepare for the rise of Speak Out may my words drench you, may my the power and deliver of my words soak into you. May the message bring moisture to the dry places and nurture you to greatness. I will declare with great emphasis the name of my God in all his glory and for his glory!!!! I live in his protection and his shielding! Therefore I even in his shadow I find rest!!!! I am conditioned in his presence alone, though the pursuit of trouble and suffering arises. He is my safety, he is the Lord and all my trust is in him alone.  Therefore he rescues me, protects me, covers me, shelters me. I fear him and do not worry about darkness for though I'm surrounded by death, I am saturated with his living water. 

A: I chose the Lord as my refuge. I chose the Most High to be my shelter. No evil conquers me, no plague of pornography, adultery, obesity, perfection, doubt, laziness, fear, will near my home. He has ordered his angels to protect me wherever I go. They will hold me up, and not even a stone will cause me to stumble. I will trample the powerful and crush them under my feet. God says, so it is so, he will rescue me, because I love him. If you love him too, he will also rescue you. If we trust in the power of his name, he will protect us. He listens and answers when we call. In our trouble, he will be with us. He will rescue and honor us, reward us with long life and give us his salvation. We simply must chose him.

P: I chose you oh Heavenly Father! Take all of me glorious Lord. For you alone are God!!!! My foundation is you and your promise says you will rescue me from my enemies, protect me from harm, cover me with your blood and shelter me from danger and trouble. I chose you and you alone are God!!!! You have gifted me to speak before I was formed in my mothers womb. In the beginning was the word, and the word was you, all of you. Your spirit hovered over the darkness and over the void. All you created, you declared good, even me. Who I was from the beginning, before I was formed in my mothers womb you knew and set me apart as a speaker of truth, a communicator of the gospel. As I rise to take my place, I chose you! May your words flow through me and drench your peoples souls. May your power be manifested within them that the words out of my mouth soak into there being. May the message you have given me to proclaim nurture your people back to who you created them to be. I take authority over my gift and calling. I chose you, I trust you, I declare you as my personal Lord and savior. I worship you and praise you for who you are. Thank you for your marvelous mercy and grace. I thank you in advance for the souls who will be reached and saved through your servant. In Jess name, amen!!!!

Promptly

S: ““When you make a vow to the LORD your God, be prompt in fulfilling whatever you promised him. For the LORD your God demands that you promptly fulfill all your vows, or you will be guilty of sin.

But once you have voluntarily made a vow, be careful to fulfill your promise to the LORD your God.” Deuteronomy 23:21, 23 NLT

O: I first knew I had an anointing when I was in high school when I want to my first youth camp. That year Pastor David Herrera was the guest speaker and he had the high schoolers go up to the altar and get prayed up than had the middle school come up behind us. At his direction the high schoolers turned around and started praying for the middle schoolers. I don't remember my prayers, but I know whoever I touched got touched. A youth pastor later in comes to me and says, I see that you are anointed. Will you come and pray for this young lady. From than till now I forgot about that anointing. I hid it underneath fear, doubt, low awl esteem, food, insecurities, and a false identity. BUT GOD, did not forget. As I prepared for this weekend and had my breakthrough before the retreat God reminded me of that anointing. 

A: I've been saved sine I was 13, made a vow to God when I was 14. The vow was still there at 19 and revealed again as a reminder now at 28.  This is my year of preparation. At 29 I'm going to experience God like I have never experienced God before!!!! I wasn't promt in fulfilling my vow to God. I forgot the things I have promised. BUT GOD is a God of second chances and reminds me of who I am in him. The anointing I have through him it's my season! It's my time! The Lord my God has demanded that I now, promptly fulfill all my vows or be held guilty of sin. I was my decision to make a vow to God, it therefore is my responsibility to see it through. Be careful mom, you'll be fine. Father I want to hold you as I fulfill my promise to you!

What are have you vowed to God for? It's time to promptly fulfill your promise!

P: My God!!!! What opportunities you have laid before me! What a privilege it is that you remind me of my vow to you, my anointing and my promises. You alone are The Lord my God!!!! Lord I yearn for you!!!!

 

Be prepared!

S: “When you prepare for battle, the priest must come forward to speak to the troops. He will say to them, ‘Listen to me, all you men of Israel! Do not be afraid as you go out to fight your enemies today! Do not lose heart or panic or tremble before them. For the LORD your God is going with you! He will fight for you against your enemies, and he will give you victory!’” Deuteronomy 20:2-4 NLT

O: The battle is inevitable, be prepared. Get motivation, get inspired! Don't just merely hear the motivation, listen and take heed. It's a daily preparation to not fight out of fear and to not lose heart, panic, tremble, run, be depressed or be discouraged before your enemies. For when we have prepared, the Lord who is our God with us. HE WILL FIGHT FOR YOU!!!! Byou need to just be prepared and show up to battle against your enemies and he will give you victory!!!!

A: Stay prepared! The battle will come and as long as I stay prepared by being prayed up, suited up, and inspired there is no amount of fear, discouragement sadness or depression that will keep me from my victory. Being in preparation is doing my part the rest God will give.

P: Oh sovereign God! How great and how awesome are your decrees!!!! Your word is simple and transparent, you will fight for us, you will give us victory as long as we are prepared for the battle! The against are enemies is today! Yet your presence is here! As you promised! I thank you and praise you advance for victory!!!! In Jesus mighty name I pray, amen!

 

Abundance

S: “....for it is he who blesses you with bountiful harvests and gives you success in all your work. This festival will be a time of great joy for all.” Deuteronomy 16:15 NLT

“All must give as they are able, according to the blessings given to them by the LORD your God.” Deuteronomy 16:17 NLT

O: It is God who provides a place of worship. Knowing there we will be blessed with an abundant harvest. There we will be given success in all we do. Therefore, let this be a time of celebration  of great joy for the entire family! 

A: God has blessed us with an abundant harvest alongside success financially and in gifting . Therefore we must give abundantly in tithe and offering and in our gifting because that is what we have been blessed with by God.

P: God you are holy! Blessing us abundantly that we in turn bless others in that same abundance. I pray over the heart of John as we make this transition to give 12%, 10% tithe and 2% offering to Sun Valley. As my business begins to generate we will give 15% and 10% will be given to tithe and 2% to Sun Valley and you will later reveal to me what the remaining 3% will be used for. I feel you know telling me that it be to Isaac for Community Dinners. Connecting with Kris to do the Community Dinners when ready. I'm investing in kingdom work in order to do kingdom work. I pray for all parties involved that our spirits will be aligned with your will. May it be as you have said oh God. In Jesus name, amen.
