God Wants Your Commitment! by Myra Boozer

Many people turn to God when they have serious troubles and trials. They need help... so they go to church and say their prayers, but only for a short time. They turn back to their old ways until the next time they can't handle their problems anymore. Over and over they do this. So Sad! They just don't understand!

God is not a "pie in the sky" kind of God. He wants us to love Him for who He is, not for what He can do for us in time of need alone. He is not an on-and-off God. He is a full-time God and wants a full-time relationship with His Children.

Today is not the time to forget God! The battle is raging, and it is so dangerous to be out in the cold without your covering. God wants to shield you and keep you from all harm and danger of the enemy that is out to steal, kill, and destroy. Satan is sneaky and will come at you in many different forms...sometimes as an Angel of Light. Don't be deceived by him! Run to God today and find Him to be your answer. He is waiting with open arms, longing for you to make a commitment to Him. Stay the course; don't run away. "We love Him because He first loved us," I John 4:19. God Wants Your Commitment! 

Take This Whole World But Give Me Jesus!

Isaiah 26:3, “Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.”

“In the morning when I rise, give me Jesus.” So go the lyrics of one of my favorite songs. Jesus is my Beginning, and He will be my End. He is my Sustainer and my Provider. Though I pass through this intense darkness, He is my Light and my Salvation. I may not know the next step to take, but He is my Guide and gives me perfect peace in the turmoil. He will speak to this storm and declare “PEACE BE STILL.” He restores the strength of my soul and causes me to rise up on wings as an eagle. He makes me soar high above the conflict in this world, separated from the struggle. He keeps me in the hollow of His hand, and Nothing can pluck me from His saving grace.

That is the power of His abiding presence! Power to push back the evil and darkness that has captured the innocence of life and destroyed so many precious souls. The power of His presence in me enables me to declare in the Name of Jesus, “YOU SHALL PROCEED NO FURTHER.” There is power in the Name of Jesus over all that comes against me. As He abides in me and I in Him, He will vanquish every foe and cause me to triumph over every evil plan of the enemy. Oh! Victory in Jesus, my Savior forever! He will keep me in perfect peace as my focus is on Him! That Peace is my total Freedom Forever! Amen! Take this whole world, just Give Me Jesus! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bbh43MGoigw&list=RDbbh43MGoigw&start_radio=1 

Die To Your Dreams! by Myra Boozer

When you die to “your” dreams, you actually give up and let go of all the thoughts and ambitions that your mind has conjured up. You package them up with a big bow and send them across the way...Never to be called forth again.

When you do this, you're giving your life into the hands of your creator. It seems a bit risky, but it really isn't because He knows what is best and he knows the future.

He sees your talents and abilities. He knows your skills. He is the one who gave them to you. He knows your likes and all your dislikes.

He feels all your heart’s cries for love and acceptance. He knows what will make you grow in Him and in the plans He has for you. He knows who will drag you down and bring defeat into your life.

He also knows who will build you up and encourage you to be all you can be for His Divine Purpose and His Kingdom. He has a perfect plan. He is longing to share it with you, but first you must rid yourself of all the things that distract and confuse you. Those things that bind you and will eventually destroy you.

He desires that you are free and trusting of His great love, yielding your life into His Hands, submitting yourself under His Authority and declaring all is well with your soul.

As you release "your will" and your plans for your life to Him, He will open His treasures to you, His ever-abiding love that covers all of your days. He will walk and talk with you, directing your steps as you follow Him. There must be no deviation from His perfect plan. Seek Him as you would seek a great treasure hidden in the field... 

No Man Can Shut God's Open Door!

Revelation 3:8, “I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it...”

The Body of Christ cannot continue with business as usual! God has opened a temporary window for the Church to call upon His Name and return to Theocratic rule. God is calling us back to His leadership as the collective Body of Christ.

Somewhere along the path to finish the commission given to us, the Church began to depart from the faith which was once delivered to the saints. Every pastor, leader, and congregation has been pressed by the will of a worldly society to include all men in the Church regardless of their relationship with Jesus Christ. However, to be a follower of Christ, one must be a disciple of Christ. To be a disciple of Christ is to accept His Truth and reflect that Truth in one’s life as a reflection of Christ. Only then is one acceptable to Christ. That is what is meant by a person accepting Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. Until such a time, one’s life is preserved solely by the mercy and grace of God.

At this late hour, we must turn back to the purpose of God in the earth. Let us rise up in the Power of the Holy Spirit and declare God’s Standard for every human life is the Word of God. Hebrews 2:12, “For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” In the Holy Spirit, the Word of God is our Safety and the Righteous run to it. Let us return to the God of our Fathers! God will place us where we need to be when we need to be there if we will obey His Word!

Let us purposefully and deliberately step through the Open Door that God has created for us in this hour. No man can shut the Door, but we must choose to enter into the Will of God. Let us awake from the spirit of Slumber, heed the Voice of God, and finish Our Mission as the Body of Christ! God will close His Door in His Time, just as He closed the door on the Ark. Get in while you can! 

Will You Hear? by Myra Boozer

Jesus stands in defense of all who trust Him. He is our Divine protector against all evil. He is Alive and He is Coming for all those who love Him (not casual love but love with a commitment and a covenant). We have no need to fear evil because Jesus is our bodyguard!

JESUS has conquered death, hell, and the grave. He won't let His Bride be destroyed by any enemy. He has made a way for us to have love, joy, and peace in the pavilion He has made for us. Even in the dark days, He is our HOPE; He is our Future; He is our Savior!

But we, as Ezekiel, need to hear "the word of the LORD came unto me, saying." We must be able to communicate with Christ because He is our great Intercessor to the Father. He is our daily guide, our very life's sustainer. How can we survive without talking to Him? We must know He is near and listening to our cries when we are facing daily battles with the enemy of our souls.

Lord, our greatest quest is to hear your voice and know your desire for us. Lord, help me to listen intently. I want to obey, but I must be still and quiet to hear you today. So much is going on in my mind and my heart. Lord, you can calm all the thoughts and direct my steps.

I will trust in you and sing your song. It may be low, very low this morning as the tears flow. But you understand as I feel the needs of my family and friends heavy on my heart. Help me to just hand all these thoughts, prayers, and urgent needs to you and allow you to take care of each one of them. My job is to gather them one by one and bring them to you in Faith. You are the Healer! You are the Deliverer! You are the Heart Mender! You are the Peace Giver! You are the Lifter of our Heads! You, Lord, are the one who really cares for us. We belong to you because of the cross.

I pray this prayer for my family and all who need an encounter with the Lord Jesus Christ. May you learn to love the sound of God's voice in your ear. May you cultivate such a heart for Peace and a heart at Rest that you fully Trust your Father to lead you in the Way that you should go. May you lose your taste for the things that weaken you. May you develop a hunger and thirst for all God has for you. May you receive a fresh revelation of God's Love and Promises for you. You are a gifted treasure, a loved person, and you're called to impact the world in a way that only you can. May the Love of Christ constrain you and compel you in the days ahead. May He open your eyes to the new territory awaiting you. Will You Hear? 

Where Is Truth And Justice? Conclusion

(For part 1, see 11/6/26)

In Isaiah 59:9-21, Isaiah gives a litany of sins for which Israel needs a redeemer. He observes that judgment, justice, and truth are qualities absent from the life of Israel. Because there was no qualified mediator, God would provide salvation through the coming kinsman Redeemer. This salvation is in Jesus Christ, whom they rejected at the First Advent. But God promises that He will forgive their sins and restore them in covenant relationship in the end.

Isaiah 59:20, “And the Redeemer shall come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the LORD. 21 As for me, this is my covenant with them, saith the LORD; My spirit that is upon thee, and my words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed's seed, saith the LORD, from henceforth and for ever.”

“...And unto them that turn from transgression...” is a provision of God’s covenant and will be implemented through repentance and acceptance of Jesus Christ as the Messiah. That will happen to a remnant of Israel in the end.

However, the call of God to all of humanity is to repent and return to God. Any people who expect the favor and covering of God must approach Him in repentance and follow in obedience. One of the greatest judgments that God brought against Israel was their failure to uphold “truth and justice.” That principle is just as relevant in our country and our world today. If God brought the leadership of Israel to judgment because of their lack of truth and justice, He will do the same for every succeeding generation.

We must have the intervention of God in the days and weeks ahead. Let us fall prostrate before Him in brokenness and contrition, casting all care upon Him, and believing for His Divine and perfect will. And let His perfect will be exercised in me. Where Is Truth And Justice? 

Paths Of Righteousness! by Myra Boozer

Psalm 23:3, “He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.”

Lord, lead your people in the paths of righteousness, and we will always be right where you want us.

You open doors and shut doors, and for that we are grateful. You know the way we should go, and we do not. Lord, we have never been this way before. We must trust YOU.

Some days our hearts are so grieved because of the evil that is running rampant. Our hearts break for the people who suffer and for those who are engulfed with sin and cause such horrible acts.

There is one thing we do know: to exalt your NAME, to lift YOU up, to Praise and Glorify YOU in the SANCTUARY. "Lord, prepare me to be a sanctuary, pure and holy, tried and true, with thanksgiving, I'll be a living sanctuary for you."

Lord, I pray that I may follow Your Spirit as You continue to open the right doors at the right time. I pray that I continue to be led by Your Spirit to follow Your voice and be ready to meet You in the air on that Glorious Day when You call Your Bride to come up to where You are. What a Day that will be!

Lord, Your Paths of Righteousness will lead us HOME! That is where I long to be!
