    In the fourth watch of the night, Jesus came to them, walking on the sea. When the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, "It's a ghost!" and they cried out for fear. But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying "Cheer up! I AM! Don't be afraid." Peter answered him and said...

    Anchor of the Soul from Refreshing Hope Ministries on Vimeo. When people lose hope, they lie down and die. They lose the will to live and fight any longer. Hopelessness is utter despair, the belief that nothing good will happen. When you begin to think like this, it will bring a desire to die. A ...

    The Pharisees and the scribes asked him, "Why don't your disciples walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat their bread with unwashed hands?" He answered them, "Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honors me with their lips, But their heart is far f...

Ecstasy

  • You shall seek me, and find me, when you search for me with all your heart. I will be found by you Jeremiah 29:13 WEB

    It was a very busy morning and I had so much to do. I was under a lot pressure to fulfill the many commitments that I had made, and I was anxious to get the day underway. I had also told the Lord that I would start the morning with prayer time, but when under pressure, I wrestled with it. Did I really have time? Maybe tomorrow'

    Finally I just went into my prayer room, sat on the floor, reclined against my bean bag, pulled a blanket over me, and began to pray. I said about one sentence before the presence of the Lord descended on me so strong that I began to weep. He spoke to me very clearly that morning. I came completely undone and just sit there weeping, overwhelmed with His presence for the next twenty minutes. Every fiber of my being felt loved. The enemy had to tried to rob me of that experience.

    That time, when I was faced with the hectic day ahead, I chose to put Him first. He touched me and when I came out of my prayer room, the huge problems that I faced, now looked insignificant. I no longer even cared! The rest of my day was filled with His grace and peace.

    Choose Him! Those that miss out on knowing the Lord Jesus and the presence of the Holy Spirit miss the greatest ecstasy on this earth. True ecstasy does not come in a pill. It comes from an intimate relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ.

    Prayer: Heavenly Father I choose You today. Please lead me into all that You have in store for I am Yours. Speak to me in a way that I understand and let me experience Your presence here on the earth, in the name of Jesus Christ I pray.

    Note: Ladies, today is Thankful Thursday at the "Ladies in Distress" group (our RHM women's group)!
