heal thyself!
I’m writing this specifically to my sons and daughters (all of you).
So, you don’t like your circumstance? You’re are not seeing what you want? You have cried out, but there are delays and you think that maybe you are invisible to God or He is deaf? The reports are bad and you have to fight to keep a nostril above the water in order to breath?
What are your choices?
You could come into agreement with you plight and just voice out-loud your personal rejection. Bad ideal. You could speak more death on yourself, your dreams, your hopes. Or, maybe you could try harder. Yeah, that will fix it. Try harder. *sigh* Maybe rebellion? Oh, wait…rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft. Good little Christian kids don’t do witchcraft. Scratch that one. Self-pity? That one gets us in really big trouble with the Lord, so…no. How about a temper tantrum? Like a 3 year old whose momma won’t buy the bubbles at the grocery store? Uhh, that one makes it too obvious, probably not. Well crap! What the buzzard fudge are we supposed to do?
OR…or…you could heal yourself. Yeah! You could PROPHECY what is true about you. David said, “I WILL bless the LORD!”
Doubt he always felt like it. I suspect that there were times that circumstance did not equate to a cheerful “thanks Lord!” But, David is prophesying to his own spirit that he doesn’t govern his life by his eyes, surroundings or soggy emotions!
Come on man of God! Come on daughter of Zion! Scream in tongues, prophecy with fire, tell the truth! Change it in the spirit and then you’ll not be so wound up in the struggle of our natural surroundings! God gets timing. God knows timing. It’s all about timing! You asked to live by faith. So…have faith!
Heal thyself! Speak life! Speak life! SPEAK LIFE!

God has given you a powerful voice into our generation, your sons & daughters…and speaking for us all….THANK YOU for speaking that which He puts on your heart. You consistently speak LIFE into us. Your father’s heart is evident in all you do and say and the way you love us. Love you too!
After our talk last week it jolted me to do this very thing. Although I didn’t have words for it, everytime the feeling creep up I just begin to thank the Lord and it hs made all the difference.
Amen, Mike
