The Seed from Refreshing Hope Ministries on Vimeo. We have a majestic oak tree in our yard that is older than me. It would probably take three men to reach their arms around the base of it at the moment. It stands about sixty feet tall, and the canopy is at least sixty feet across. During the hot... -

He went out, bearing his cross, to the place called "The Place of a Skull", which is called in Hebrew, "Golgotha", where they crucified him, and with him two others, on either side one, and Jesus in the middle. Pilate wrote a title also, and put it on the cross. There was written, "JESUS OF NAZARETH...

For as the rain comes down and the snow from the sky, and doesn't return there, but waters the earth, and makes it grow and bud, and gives seed to the sower and bread to the eater; so is my word that goes out of my mouth: it will not return to me void, but it will accomplish that which I please, and it will prosper in the thing I sent it to do. Isaiah 55:10 WEB
There are things that the Lord told me over twenty years ago, I am just beginning to live. See, when the Lord speaks to you, it often comes in seed form. A small seed of hope that you cannot see because it is beneath the surface. He will spend years preparing you for things that you don't even know are coming.
A rhema word (spoken word, an utterance) from God causes dreams to grow. In Luke 4:4 and Matthew 4:4, Jesus said that "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every (rhema) word that proceeds from the mouth of God." In Romans 10:17 it reads: 'So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the (rhema) word of God.' The universe itself was spoken into existence. God said, 'Let there be light'; and there was light (Genesis 1:3).
A rhema word from God changes everything. What you currently see, is not what will always be. A bad life can become a good one. There is still hope for the hopeless. Pray and listen. God restores the fallen. He heals the sick. He delivers the captives. He brings back the lost, and a word spoken by Him changes everything.
Prayer: Heavenly Father, please speak to me in a way that I understand and let me hear Your voice clearly. I want to be involved in what You are doing today. Please don't pass me by! In the name of Jesus Christ I pray.

I sooooooo needed this today! Thank you, God! And thank you too, Pastor Dion!

Amen
I wish more people could hear those rhema words, Dion, we were so forunate to have sat under Owen Johnson. May God truly open up the gifts of the Holy Spirit in our day! Those days may have been hard, but I would not trade them for anything! May God truly fulfill all the Prophetic words ever spoken by people like Owen Johnson by the power of God!
Amen. There will be seasons in the desert and seasons of harvest. In all seasons, for one reason we should live, to just abide in Him. He will mold us and make us , refine us , break us and continue to shape us, and then send us out to serve His plan.
Praise God! I can depend on His Word, He does not lie and His Word is active and sharper than any two sidded sword pearcing as far as the bone and marrow. I can believe Him and trust Him!!!
Agreement with God = submission to God. You cannot expect to hear from God or walk in God's authority if you live in rebellion against God. Oh but His Grace........Thank you Pastor Todd, for the Rhema Word today.
Hi Pastor Dion- I love todays message. Thank you for hearing and sharing God's Rheuma word. Initially, I expected that you were going to share scripture Jeremiah 29:11. " For I know the plans I have for you declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future". The Lord has been giving me this scripture through different brethren (whom have no ties to each other), and the bible verse seems to appear out of non-related booklets, etc., when I need it most for about the past 9 years. That absolutely is my scripture handed to me by my Father.
If you have been wanting to know God's plan for your life", A rhema word from God changes everything. What you currently see, is not what will always be. A bad life can become a good one. There is still hope for the hopeless. Pray and listen. God restores the fallen. He heals the sick. He delivers the captives. He brings back the lost, and a word spoken by Him changes everything.
Amen! Through today's lesson, God has shown me that I don't have to worry about what seems to be an eternity of feeling so sick to be my future. I don't need to worry where or if there is Mr. Right. He is preparing me for the BIG change, so I can just give my stresses to Him, trust in Him, give God my future, and live each day as it comes, in prayer knowing-all He has to do is say the Rheuma word.
Lord Jesus bless you pastor Dion! I love that you are obedient to Him!
Amen
Thank you Pastor Dion. Each day I read the devotional and pray to be thankful for what I do have; and for what I need. What a blessing to have a relationship with God and to feel his spirit so strong and pure in my life. In his name I pray for peace in our World; to allow the Presidential thing to play out as it will; not to worry about those things that I can't change and to focus on what I can change. I pray for your blessings; as you bring so much to share with each of us. My prayers I ask today for my husband who is declining in some ways as people age; and for my granddaughter who is recovering from a concussion with occular issues; it is 2 years now; and she is going to start back to school in April. She says people look at her like she is normal and when she couldn't read the eye chart the nurse was frustrated with her. Let their be patience as she moves through additional therapy and understanding from the people she will be working with; and to let her heal from her injuries. In his name I pray, Amen.
For as the rain comes down and the snow from the sky, and doesn't return there, but waters the earth, and makes it grow and bud, and gives seed to the sower and bread to the eater; so is my word that goes out of my mouth: it will not return to me void, but it will accomplish that which I please, and it will prosper in the thing I sent it to do. Isaiah 55:10 WEB
Every word that comes from the mouth of our LORD GOD are his promises and like the rain and the snow, every promises will come to pass. For thus says our LORD GOD say: It will not return to HIM void, but will be accomplished by which HE is pleased, and HE will prosper in the thing that HE sent it to do. PRAISE AND GIVE THANKS TO OUR LORD GOD ALWAYS.
Amen! Pastors prayer, Heavenly Father, please speak to me in a way that I understand and let me hear your voice clear. I want to be involved in what you are doing today. Please Don't Pass Me By! In the name of Jesus Christ I pray Amen!!
