Today is a brand new day, a fresh start, a new beginning! Step outside and take a picture with thanksgiving to capture what God shows you. Share His goodness, His faithfulness, His glory with others by simply SMILING for all that He has done! This morning, He revealed His glory in the green mountains, new blossoms in August, rain puddles, and a cool breeze! There are NEWLY paved streets, and a beautiful NEW Town Square Clock. What time is it? It is time to sing a NEW song. We purpose and choose to rejoice always, especially when we feel dull, weak, or just too tired! IF you wake up and identify that your mind is stuck like a broken record, repeating and rehearsing a trauma or a disgusting disappointment — the mind dives deep into worry, anxiety, fear and bitter resentment. We take charge, and grab those thoughts by the horns of the defeated one, and 5,4,3,2,1 shift gears and CHOOSE to THINK in AUTHORITY. “I am TIRED of entertaining this toxic mentality! SPIRIT RISE UP, and FLESH SHUT UP! Satan’s agenda, his assignment against me is CANCELED! “I am the head, not the tail! I am God’s Beloved and the Promise abides in me. I am His, and He in mine. Holy Spirit tells me His TRUTH. I am His OVERCOMER, I AM VICTORIOUS. My Father FILLED me with His Love and His Power, for His Purpose. With my Ninja VOICE I speak the TRUTH, and instantly, the devil and his lies are erased, deleted, and defeated. Holy Spirit saturate my mind, stream through my body with healing, peace, and joy to the GLORY OF GOD. Thank You Father for reminding me what is true, lovely, good, and praiseworthy!” Some of us are comfortable where we are, and some of us want to RUN FREE in the Spirit without a saddle.

Sister Judy was in a roof top battle yesterday and we chose to praise Him anyway. He sees our heart of worship and He rewards those who seek Him passionately with MORE joy, and MORE of His holy Presence. “Hey Golden Girls! I waited for 3 hours for the contractor. Bought and covered the roof with 11 meters of plastic. A quick, but temporary solution to prevent water from POURING onto the 3rd floor. Have not eaten and couldn’t get to the classes today. I hope to be able to attend the entire day tomorrow. Sorry 😞 Judy. —- HALLELUIAH we now get to APPLY the WISDOM gained today! Anchored to the Holy Spirit, we choose this moment to agree with God and we act in faithful confidence. We face our enemy with boldness and take back the territory of mind that he came to steal. We choose to rise up and RECLAIM the truth. We forgive our part for being lured into his drama. Our Father gave us lethal weapons to fight, and we rise up with our indwelt Promise Keeper and defeat our foe with one blow, these Words; In Jesus’ name, Go Now! Holy Spirit rises up, and our fleshy fear that says “oh, no!” gets silenced by a Spirit filled, effective prayer. We rest in His victory, Glory to God, problem solved. “Expect great things from God! Attempt great things for God.” William Carey

Genesis 27:28 “May God give you heaven’s dew and earth’s richness— an abundance of grain and new wine.” May God bless you with a new song, and the courage to sing it out loud for all to hear. May you gladly step out in FAITH trusting that He will complete you as you yield to the Holy Spirit and become the truest version of what God has for you. Deuteronomy 32:2 “Let My teaching fall like rain and My words descend like dew, like showers on NEW grass, like abundant rain on tender plants.” Step outside and thank God for the rain, and new friends. These girls are having FUN while rocking this neighborhood.

Heavenly Father, in Jesus name, with authority we bind, Cancel and destroy Satan’s scheme, and his assignment to stop the Healing Center from opening for His purpose. God Almighty planned it, Judy prayed into it for 12 years. Holy Spirit we trust You with the resources needed to make all repairs needed. We call on You for wisdom and Your peace to flush out our worries and ways. Reveal to us the next step. AMEN ❤️ We prayed for healing and complete restoration of Billie’s knee and Jan’s writing hand. We trust what the Word of God spoke: “Now I have told you before it comes, that when it does come to pass, you may believe.” John 14:29 We prayed in pure FAITH and we expect Him to make everything right. Seek good company! Honor those who God sends to speak LIFE into you. Thank you Karen, Billie, Jan and Judy!

2 Samuel 18:19 “Let me run and take the NEWS to the king that the Lord has vindicated him by delivering him from the hand of his enemies.” With much excitement we proclaim what the Lord has done! He freed the captives today and healed the broken-hearted. Matthew 9:17 “People do NOT pour NEW wine into old wineskins. If they do, the skins will burst; the wine will run out and the wineskins will be ruined. No, they pour NEW wine into NEW wineskins, and both are preserved.” We are NEW creations in Christ Jesus! Hallelujah! Give God thanks for the opportunity to apply His fresh Word today. Walk your neighborhood with authority as you speak sweet blessings over each home. Even our whispers destroy evil plots!

Mark 1:15 “The time has come,” He said. “The kingdom of God has come near. Repent and believe the good NEWS!” Yes, Lord, we believe and we repent, we turn away our old stinking thinking and we renew our minds with a fresh Word from You. Mark 16:17 “These signs will accompany those who BELIEVE: In My name they will drive out demons; they will speak in NEW tongues.” Lord, Your servant is listening and we trust Your plans for us. We believe and we step out in a NEW direction with greater FAITH building each time we see Your hand at work, opening NEW doors for us to step through.

See things through the eyes of the Father. It is NOT a traffic jam, those cows are mowing my lawn, Praise God! We are One in Christ Jesus. Peter said, “Silver and gold I do not have; but what I do have I give to you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth— and His mighty power, I say get up and walk!” Acts 3:6 We have 5 senses that all get activated in every trauma. The sight, sound, smell, taste and the emotion all get packed into a memory cell. When the sneaky devil triggers us with a sight, smell or a sound — we then choose to use our mouth to CANCEL his agenda, his assignment to destroy us. Give the Holy Spirit permission to remove the sight, smell and every sound. Forgive all involved, repent for your part, cancel his trick, and seal the deal with thanksgiving for what God has done and is doing behind what we see! Billie and Jan both reminded us of what happened when the Israelites looked back and missed the comfort of what had been familiar. If you get to feeling dull in your spirit, go hang out with people who are on FIRE for the Lord. Their flames will light your fire, and it is up to each individual to be the torch bearer. Picture a matchbox full of matches. Without coming out of the box, they can never rub up against a stone and start a flame. Be a fire starter in your neighborhood! Some churches are full of matches that have never been struck by the IMPACT of the BLOOD, the POWER of the CROSS, or ever ask the Holy Spirit for MORE.

We are seated in holy places! Ephesians 2:6-7 “God raised us up with Christ and seated us with Him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, in order that in the coming ages He might show the incomparable riches of His grace, expressed in His kindness to us in Christ Jesus.” We stand firmly against the enemy, we proclaim the victory as we rise above the circumstances and together, we can do all things through Jesus Christ. According to our Father’s promise, whosoever can proclaim and receive whatsoever is needed for His glory.

All His Golden Girls with Andy are framed in a picture that sits on our Father’s bookshelf. He wrote our individual stories and He called us together as His mighty force for such a time as this. Before we were born, before we met one another, God knew 12 years ago about His plan for a healing Center in Chapala, on the block of Delicious Cafe. We ask the greater One who abides in us for MORE of the FIRE 🔥 of God to light up the dark places that we remain purified and steeled in His strength to stand on the snake and rejoice in victory. “As for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.” Joshua 24:15 Thank You heavenly Father for the beautiful plans You have for all of us. We worship You Lord Jesus with joy in the SECURE hope You gave us. We ask the Holy Spirit to keep our FLAME burring hot!

We choose to use our voice to rejoice! We are NEVER without His Holy Presence. Wherever we are, He is. We are victorious because of Who Jesus is inside of our hearts. He is on the throne, and what He speaks through us has power to heal and transform. We refuse to look at any circumstance as too big for God. As His adopted, anointed saints we overcome by the Word of our testimony. Sing His praises with joy for what He is always working out. With a renewed mind, we declare Jesus as our wonderful Savior, our Mighty King. Transformed by the Spirit of God, we are His faithful servants, ready to be deployed to serve the King and stand victorious for His glory. Our identity is secure in Who answers our every prayer as we trust the outcome to increase our faith in what He is doing. As the community watches, they witness God working through the Body of Christ to unite and transform the entire Lakeside area. AMEN

The world has divided the Body of Christ into numerous categories. We choose not to identify with man made divisions: Catholic, Baptist, Lutheran, Charasmatic, Pentecostal, Reformed, Methodist, Presbyterian, or any other way of Satans plan to separate us. We are God’s children. We are the Kings kids. Matthew 5:9 “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.” We worship our Waymaker, our Miracle Worker, and we expect His provision and protection always. —- Galatians 3:26-28 “So in Christ Jesus you are ALL children of God through faith, for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.”

It was a private privilege to have both Judy and Jan tucked in my car because I needed to know how to respond to people who question how I could become more delivered, more free since I first got saved and baptized in 1985. Jan quipped in her cute Alabama Hick tone “Just ask them if they remember their first head cold?” Did they ever get sick after the age of 5, 10, 20 or after they got baptized? They were under the blood, but when our spirit gets reborn, our mind still collects garbage which includes stinking thinking. If they keep looking back, they become salty, sour, and maybe even bitter. We got a prayer for that! One can choose to get rid of, or delivered from whatever gets stuck in their craw, our hearts, which closes the door to more FREEDOM living ‘in Christ.” People are content where they are, or they want more. Thank You, God, for coming down and walking among us, for choosing to be our Savior, our Redeemer, our King. We bless your mighty name, Jesus! Father, bless your people today as we walk in the authority that You have given us to do Your work, for Your Kingdom, and for Your radiant glory! Amen

Acts 2:39 “The PROMISE is for you and your children and for all who are far off—for all whom the Lord our God will call.” What is our Father calling you to do next? Trust Him, and step into His glory filled promise of MORE joy and thrills. The Holy Spirit equips us for whatever is directly ahead. Until then, we rest in God and we go direct to the Holy Spirit and ask for Him to guide us. Instructions from Jan on Tuesday: We boldly choose to stand firm on the skinny neck of a paraplegic devil. His lies do not work in those with divinely given discernment. We speak to the Liar boldly. “My granddaughter will not die, but live!” The devil is defeated by our declaration. We speak in FAITH and BELIEVE as if it already were. We are confident that God is working even when cannot see Him or feel Him. Our Father never stops working and He is ever watching. We are the apple of His eye. Go ahead and proclaim “I am His favorite.”

“Be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind” See things as Miss Billie said. Satan was defeated and disarmed at the cross. Don’t fear him, fear God. See the devil without arms, and no feet, just a mouth full of lies. A stronghold in the mind IS whatever we choose to believe based on a lie. A false belief system is an imitation of Jesus Christ. Like a cup of decaf coffee, a false belief has zero power. As Kids of the Kingdom of God, we are sealed with His authority, and we can make a difference in our neighborhood by just speaking blessings. Remember this nugget: the purpose of warfare is victory. The purpose of victory is occupation. What occupies your mind? We can knock over the devil with a whisper of authority. Haha –indeed we can laugh at the days to come!

Take a stand against the enemy’s lies that stream constantly. Put the armor on and defeat his agenda. We do not have orphan hearts because we BELIEVE we were adopted, as the Kings Kid and we were given His seal of authority. We cancel all threats from the disarmed, disabled bandit. We boldly choose to declare all that is right and fully restored in us by our Father’s promise. Today Pastor Gary was told by his astonished doctors that he does NOT require another heart procedure! We laugh at the Liar, knowing He is easily defeated. We confidently KNOW that we are the head not the squirming tail CRUSHED under our feet. HALLELUJAH 😊

“I know your works; you are neither cold or hot.” Who knows if we are a torch or a frozen chosen? Our fear of anything other than God is a sin. Truly many are afraid to cross over to the other side of freedom because of the fear of not knowing what is on the other side of being stuck or snuffed out. Our Lord warns us to not get too comfortable doing nothing, resting in retirement. We may trust our view of where God has us without realizing that we have spiritual blindness. Ask the Holy Spirit to reveal in us ANYTHING that we are resisting, or rebelling against. Wait for Him to shine His light, see what He sees and then dare say “No, I beg Your pardon, that’s not the way I see it.” The correct, humble response is to REPENT and be forgiven and get a fresh start with a FIRE for what God has in store for you. Read Revelation chapter 2 and 3 and agree with whatever God shows you in you. To live in your calling, we must know our address, where we are currently dwelling. If we are abiding in a relaxed contentment, a comfortable lifestyle, or with a peaceful sleeping spirit, we might be a lukewarm believer, without a desire to be motivated. Everyone of us live on a spiritual battle field. Our mind is the war zone, it is a daily battle between doubt and faith, trust and rebellion, anxiety and courage, foolishness and wisdom, despair and hope. Has the Promise Keeper ever failed you? Do you resist being refined in the fire? A great book quoted “The Prison in the Third Cell” by Gene Edwards. “It is IMPOSSIBLE to forgive a person who deliberately hurts you for the sole purpose of destroying you, or lowering you to his level. We have but ONE HOPE: to see this unfair painful event being allowed by God for His purpose of lifting your stature ABOVE where you formerly stood.” “But as for you, you intended to harm me, but God —- intended it for good, in order to bring it about as it is this day, to save many lives.” Genesis 50:20 Bless the enemy behind the lines and disarm him by speaking blesses not curses, not complaining or sinking under poor me. “Bless those who persecute you.” Romans 12:14 Our Father tells us that when we walk in wisdom and guard our mouths, we will walk in higher states of freedom. “Whoever guards his mouth and his tongue keeps his soul from trouble.” Proverbs 21:23 When we limit the words we speak, we limit potential damage. “The prudent hold their tongues.” Proverbs 10:19 The truth is the more we talk, the greater the risk of offense, misunderstanding and confusion. A summary of what Jesus preached on the mount was about 2,000 words long, He delivered it within 20 minutes. With Jesus as our model, we should limit our input to about 10-20 minutes per topic, unless of course the Holy Spirit is leading and you are His chosen fresh water spout! Walk in the Spirit with increased FREEDOM as you capture every word.

Transformed by the Spirit of God, we are His faithful servants, ready to be deployed to serve the King and stand victorious for His glory. Our identity is secure in Who answers our every prayer as we trust the outcome to increase our faith in what He is doing. As the community watches, they witness God working through a UNITED Body of Christ. We ignite each other in order to keep His flame burning for His purpose! Together we transform the entire Lakeside area. We can make a dramatic impact by simply walking our neighborhoods and whispering God’s Word over our area. We have the authority to make the devil flee with a gentle voice while speaking His living Word, His blessings. One LIT match can start a forest fire that will destroy any stronghold. Thank You Jan for the gift of your teaching, friendship, the handy flashlight, the bracelet to remind me the truth “Broken No More” and the beautiful lunch. May God bless you and keep you safe from harm. May His glory continue to shine through you. His eyes are ever on you 😍 Our Father is well pleased to open NEW doors for you! AMEN After our EXODUS from the dull drums, the humdrum, the same o, same o boredom, with our FIRE of enthusiasm for what Jesus did, and the plans He has us — to be put in His service, to use our VOICE, and the talent He gave us— as the containers of the Holy Spirit, we just let loose and overflow! This might be uncomfortable for those who had hung out with us before Wellspring, but hey, JOY is CONTAGIOUS!

The newly released VIRUS of JOY is spreading! Some may want to wear a mask, perhaps because they have become comfortable with their level of freedom. Some folks choose to settle and get comfy with what they know, and they don’t want to get in the boat with Jesus to cross over to the other side. What might they find? Gotta trust God with that and just move in FAITH. Some friends may require some adjustment time to the NEWLY renewed YOU. IF someone asks me “What happened to you Barb? You have changed somehow. Your seem over excited, too joyful, too changed, too talkative, too different.” To that I will reply “Get used to different! Jesus recently delivered me from some old baggage and I will never look back, I am going for more!” A collection of phone vids squished together to share with others. A new TOY and a new JOY for me! Stay tuned, no charge, be inspired to ASK for MORE of what God has for YOU. “Who can abide the DAY of My coming!” Do everything for His glory! Spring Cleaning
