Before you say you love her, before you ask her name. There's something you must know, she's been stripped from all her shame. Her yesterday's are gone, her tomorrow's are unknown. She's living in the present, and making it her own. Don't try to tear her down, she's been down that road before. The woman she's been created to be, will not compromise anymore. If you can stand beside her, and just allow her to be. The woman that has become, a woman of dignity. She's had her share of pain, she's had her share of tears. But now she stands before you free, delivered from her fears. She's made some big mistakes, her life was just a mess. But now that she's surrendered, her master calls her BLESSED. He dances over her, and showers her with his love. Unconditional love only he can give, that comes from up above. Isaiah 54:4 "Do not be afraid; you will not suffer shame. Do not fear disgrace; you will not be humiliated. You will forget the sha...

Sta nd in the frontline for my seed Decree a spoken promise as I fall to my knees. Believing as I must in the one whom I can trust. The one who hears a mother's cry across the nation, with all kinds of petitions for our future generation. For they shall be a generation like no other, let's join forces and go to war for them my sisters & my brothers. Lift them up, raise the bar, pass the baton into their hand. And after you have done all you can, sit back and watch as they lead us into the promised land. Arise, arise, no time to fall Lord lead our children to their call. Do not slumber, no time to rest. For this generation is surely blessed. They're bold, they're radical, they're fierce, they're rare. They have been chosen to become heirs. Fly sons and daughters, reach for the sky, as the principalities of darkness you will defy!! Jeremiah 31:17 "So there is hope for your future, DECLARES the Lord. Your children will return to their own land."

Unveil the mystery of the son within me For you set me apart even before I was born. How fanatical and zealous I have become for you For you are the Author of my life! I'm intrigued and captivated. I embrace your favor, no longer seeking popularity that leaves emptiness only desiring to please my Creator. Oh how you fulfill me. How rich I stand. Your love is unconditional and pure. A Love like no other I had ever encountered. No one can ever love me as much as you And to think, at Calvary I was on your mind When you made the choice to be the Author of My Life! Galatians 1:24 (Amplified) "And they glorified God [as the Author and Source of what had taken plance] in me"

Renew my youth Satisfy my desire Lead me by your spirit Set my heart on fire Speak to my inner man Help me understand Allow not, me to be deceived As I dare to believe Preserve me in the vine Fill me with new wine Show me a reflection Of your mere perfection Guide me to a place Where I long to seek your face A manifestation That gives me identification Of who you say I am Redeemed by the Blood of the Lamb Psalm 10:17 "You hear, O Lord, the desire of the afflicted; you encourage them, and listen to their cry"

Lord you have a master plan even when I don’t understand. Could never fathom how or why, I am the apple of your eye. I know my Lord you’re in control, and even when life takes a toll. Your strength and Love make me complete, each day with you is a retreat. I lean on you to show me the way, to guide me thru in every day. Each day anew is a new gift, you send your angels, that they may lift. They lift me when I’m in despair, and reassure me that you care. And when I’m down and insecure, I feel your love that is so pure. Breathe into me your breath of life, and keep me far from any strife. So hold me Lord safe in your hand, remind me of your master plan. 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."

Give you my what? How could you ask that of me? You who created all things, know all things, sees all things. How could you ask that of me? The time is now! But why now? Oh, but when I asked you to search me, I didn't think you'd mean what I wanted to forget. I gave you a portion, but now you want my whole? Be gentle. But isn't that what you are? Gentle in spirit. Deal with me as only you can. Spirit to spirit. Only you know the measure. According to the measure, you will provide Sufficient will it be to deal with the anger. The anger I can no longer conceal. You who created all things, knows all things, sees all things. And you saw what was tainting my heart. Is that the contamination you want to remove? Be gentle with me. But isn't that what you are? Gentle in spirit. Give you my what? And all I have to do is trust? So I take a deep breath. Breathe, imagine, wait, trust. How could I not trust the source? Abide in you I must. This is a safe place. Wholeness. Is this w...

A little ray of sunshine, to bring gladness to your sorrow. A little ray of sunshine, Bringing hope to your tomorrow. A little ray of sunshine that will bring joy to the heart. A little ray of sunshine, that will tear darkness apart. A little ray of sunshine shines so brightly to the eye. A little ray of sunshine bringing healing to your cries. A little ray of sunshine, it's a start to a new day. A little ray of sunshine, full of mercy, full of Grace. A little ray of sunshine will bring comfort to your spirit. A little ray of sunshine, give me wisdom to perceive it. Isaiah 30:26 "The moon will shine like the sun, and the sunlight will be seven times brighter, like the light of seven full days, when the LORD binds up the bruises of his people and heals the wounds he inflicted."

I release the past to you my Lord I release it in your hands. I release the past to you, Trusting that you have a plan. I need you to refresh me, by the waters running deep. Lead me, guide me, touch me, hold me. Give me visions as I sleep. You renew the broken hearts, and provide a heart of flesh. Tender mercies I can feel, with this heart that is so fresh. As I look ahead I see, what you're going to restore. Walk by Faith and not by sight, now I'm ready to explore. Psalm 34:18 "The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit."

There is freedom at the altar where the King of Glory sees. All the heaviness in my heart, that have held me captively. There is freedom at the altar where my King knows me by name. He will meet me at the altar and will take away my shame. There is freedom at the altar an anointing flowing free. Impartation of the Spirit, that can bring me liberty. There is freedom at the altar, where all sins he will erase. He will free you by his mercy, and will fill you with his Grace. Such a freedom at the altar, where my Lord can hear my call. And the freedom at the altar is available to ALL!! Matthew 11:28 "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest".

In the Garden there were secrets too unbearable to face. And as deep as they were hidden, they could never be erased. In the Garden it was cloudy as a sign of all the rain. That the little flowers needed, just to wash away the pain. In the Garden there were weeds that were growing all around. Pesticide and roots so deep, trying to knock the flowers down. In the Garden there were secrets that needed to be revealed. No more darkness in the Garden, so the stems could now grow healed. In the Garden there are flowers that are beginning to sprout. For the Gardener has brought sunlight, and has withered the weeds out. Isaiah 61:11 "For as the soil makes the sprout come up and a garden causes seeds to grow, so the Sovereign LORD will make righteousness and praise spring up before all nations".

I'm gonna start again I've been given a second chance. Gonna pull thru this time Jesus has paid the highest price. & If I slip or fall, I know he'll hear my call Because to you my Lord, I'm surrendering my all. I've made mistakes, that I cannot erase But the Lord showed me his mercy & his grace. My afflicted cries he heard & now I've given back my heart to him. Never imagined he would spread, my wings to soar so high above the sky, I'm gonna start again. He's built my home, upon that solid ground. He's my foundation that could never be knocked down. I see clearly now that he has opened up my eyes and set me free. He's my Saviour, he's my friend. He gave me a Beginning to my End, I'm gonna start again.

She was conceived with Love, but even that wasn't enough. She had to go thru hardships, & always came up short. She was by nature egocentric, her world revolved around her. A stranger to herself as she struggled to discover her own identity. "I want to be whole", was her cry for help. Overwhelmed by her pitfalls, yet still holding on to hope. Her heart turned like ice, only to realize it was a trap. To be binded for life from ever encountering what she desired. It was a process in the making, overcoming a degree of pain and hurt. Trying to find the missing piece, yet it was in her hands all along. Emotional restoration with forgiveness in her heart. Life's lessons were not mistakes, only a part of her journey. And this is how she met with Peace, this Angel in the making. And it shall dwell in her soul, deeply embedded, as she goes on.

She wanted to feel but was numb. Years of bottled up pain and confusion only followed her. She was misunderstood, yet they were the repercussions of her actions. She longed to be loved only failing to realize she already was. How could she recognize the difference between what she can become and what she only saw. How could she be freed from that stronghold upon her? Her reflection in the mirror only sunk her deeper. How can she gamble on her faith when she feared losing? So much to gain, yet that first step was almost impossible to take. She could do it, she was told. She started to believe, started to hope, started to humble herself, started to open her heart. Letting her first True Love, the one that she was oblivious to, into her heart. She encountered a reflection of her past. So painful, yet liberating because her beloved was beside her. Her beloved made her a promise like no other she had heard before, and deep in her soul, she could sense the covenant would guide her, subside h...
