(Gen. 12:1,2 KJV). As children of God, we are part of the covenant of Abraham. It is God's will to bless us. But, an important condition to the blessing promised to Abraham was that he would not only be blessed, but that he also would be a blessing till all families of the earth are blessed. <a href="http://s128.photobucket.com/albums/p183/roosvansaron/?action=view&current=2Corinthians5_17b.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket'/" src="http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p183/roosvansaron/2Corinthians5_17b.jpg" border="0"></a>  This page is dedicated to the Lover of My Soul, My beloved.

Taking Hold of the Key of David The Lord is releasing fresh revelation of the Key of David in this hour. This is the time to take hold of that key with the revelation of what it means. The key of David is not outer court activity. It is entering into the most holy place where the glory dwells. The tangible presence and glory of God is accessed through intimate Throne Room worship. We must enter into the Throne Zone in order to see the tangible glory of God manifested in our midst. Hanging out in the outer court will not cut it.

When people can walk away from you let them walk. Your destiny is never tied to anybody that left. The bible said that, they came out from us that it might be made manifest that they were not for us. For had they been of us, no doubt they would have continued with us. [1 John 2:19] People leave you because they are not joined to you. And if they are not joined to you, you can't make them stay. Let them go. And it doesn't mean that they are a bad person it just means that their part in the story is over.

Abraham responds by telling God his thoughts and feelings about the situation. God and Abraham are able to do this because they trusted and respect each other. First Samuel 20 focuses on the friendship of David and Jonathan. These two men truly cared for each other and had great trust and confidence in one another. David was running for his life from Jonathan's father, Saul. Jonathan recognized that David was innocent. Because of the true friendship they shared, David survived Saul's assassination attempts and went on to become one of Israel's greatest kings. Real and true friendship involves freedom of choice, accountability, truth, and forgiveness. Peter and Jesus give us this example: Peter, afraid for his life after Jesus is led away from the Garden of Gethsemane, denies knowing Jesus (John 18). As He is led away by His accusers, Jesus casts a look toward Peter that says, "I knew you would deny Me, and I forgive y... http://roosvansaron.multiply.com/journal/item/346/Friendship Mon, 12 May 2008 00:13:00 -0000 BLESSED MOTHERS DAY M-O-T-H-E-R "M" is for the million things she gave me, "O" means only that she's growing old, "T" is for the tears she shed to save me, "H" is for her heart of purest gold; "E" is for her eyes, with love-light shining, "R" means right, and right she'll always be, Put them all together, they spell "MOTHER," A word that means the world to me. <a href="http://s128.photobucket.com/albums/p183/roosvansaron/MOTHERS%20DAY/?action=view&current=MothersDay.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p183/roosvansaron/MOTHERS%20DAY/MothersDay.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> Quotations for Mother's Day Being a full-time mother is one of the highest salaried jobs... since the payment is pure love.

Therefore, it is no mistake that Christ followed the same distinct pattern in His "bread" ministry. Each of us, as a member of the body of Christ (i.e. a slice of the Bread of Life), have a distinct function, but our call to service isn't too much different. Let me walk you through the process of God:   1. He Took   Christ began by taking the bread. To take is to "to bring or receive into a relation or connection" or to "get into one's hand or into one's possession". Christ took. I grew up in the church. We went nearly every Sunday. To be honest though, there was no point in my adolescence that I felt like I had been "taken". There was no "relation"ship with or connection to Christ. One common theme that I saw in all of the bread passages was that Christ could not begin the process of feeding the people until He had the bread in His hand or in His possession.

As a young man, for instance, while others trembled, David was ready and eager to face Goliath. David is an example of one whom God chose, whose passions for God sustained him for most of his life. Yet David also provides an example of what happens to good people when they go passive when they should be fighting. For there was an occasion when David did not pursue his enemies and the consequences were grave. It happened because he allowed a passive spirit to subdue his will. "Then it happened in the spring, at the time when kings go out to battle, that David sent Joab and his servants with him and all Israel, and they destroyed the sons of Ammon and besieged Rabbah. But David stayed at Jerusalem" (2 Sam.11:1). During a time of war, the king allowed a passive spirit to immobilize his soul. Soon we find this great warrior king almost helpless to resist the unfolding spiritual attack. "Now w... http://roosvansaron.multiply.com/journal/item/339/Beware_of_a_Passive_Spirit Wed, 16 Apr 2008 07:21:00 -0000 Our Heart's Desire??? Our Heart's Desire??? Ps 37:4 - Show Context Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. And what have we here, saith the Lord? Have I not given unto you the desires of thine heart? And ye weep and bemoan. What is it that is set round about thee? And why do I have no control over these things? What is this strange act, and why do I feel so compelled to do that which is not holy? Have I not given you the desires of thine heart? For has not my word spoken truth that I would give thee the desires of thine heart? And ye weep and ye bemoan because I have done this? Hum, shall I change thee through the desires that I have set in motion round about thee? Shall I not use these perpetual things that have peculiarly set themselves in motion around your life, for a greater glory? Ah saith the Lord. I laugh, because you thought I did not know. I laugh because you were unaware that your true desires would manifest round about thee.

When I say this, I don't mean they bring something which never existed before, but rather that it's easy to forget or be oblivious to them due to the type of church culture we have, stage/pews, even in the prophetic/charismatic movement. Their existence is a collective force we have to recognize, embrace, validate, affirm, mentor, nurture and cherish, because it is a breed of believers which touches ground zero in terms of an incarnated prophetic lifestyle, a much needed model for everyone. Many of them are survivors of tragedies and traumas, have difficult issues with their health, physical and emotional, and don't fit in the present paradigm of mainstream "ministry" types. However, they are like hound dogs joyfully hitting the prophetic trail, joined by kindred hearts, running in the direction they feel the Lord lead ing them, scouting the land for those coming behind... http://roosvansaron.multiply.com/journal/item/338/Meet_me_The_Bathrobe_Prophet_ Sat, 5 Apr 2008 20:16:00 -0000 Jesus é o Caminho Não se turbe o vosso coração Crede em Deus e também em mim Na casa de meu Pai há muitas moradas Se não fosse assim, eu não teria dito Vou preparar-vos um lugar Eu virei e vos levarei para mim mesmo Vós conheceis o caminho para onde eu vou Eu sou o caminho, a verdade e a vida Ninguém vem ao Pai, a não ser por mim Em verdade eu vos digo, porque eu vou para o Pai Mas aquele que crer em mim obras maiores fará Se me amares verdadeiramente Guardareis os meus mandamentos Eu rogarei ao Pai, ele vos dará o Consolador O espírito da Verdade que o mundo não pode receber Mas ele habita em vós E estará em vós pra sempre Aquele que tem os meus mandamentos E os guarda, esse é o que me ama E se alguém me amar Será amado por meu Pai Eu também os amarei E me manifestarei a ele... a ele Quero te amar Mais senhor Quero te amar Mais senhor Quero te amar Mais senhor Quero te amar Mais http://roosvansaron.multiply.com/video/item/240/240 Sat, 2 Feb 2008 01:29:58 -0000 I need you, you need me.

Prayer warriors are people who are known for regularly interceding on behalf of others before God. To intercede means to come between, so prayer warriors are, in effect, coming between God and the trouble in another person's life. Prayer warriors are like defense attorneys, appealing to the Higher Court on behalf of their defendants. We're all guilty before God, but God is merciful. Prayer warriors recognize that quality of God's personality and call on Him for intervention. Let's study several prayer warriors in the Bible and see what we can learn from them: <UL> <LI>Jehoshaphat was King of Judah when he received word that his land was being invaded. In 2 Chronicles 20:1-24, we read how the king prayed fervently to the Lord: "O LORD, God of our fathers, are you not the God who is in heaven? You rule over all the kingdoms of the nations. Power and might are in your hand, and no one can withstand you. O our God, did you not drive out the inhabi... http://roosvansaron.multiply.com/journal/item/337/Who_were_the_prayer_warriors_in_the_Bible_ Wed, 9 Jan 2008 22:56:00 -0000
