For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. Hebrews 4:12

Be Careful With Your Promise!
Recently, when asked by my friend if I thought she should share with others what God has recently revealed is coming down the line for her, I shared this: I don't think it's wrong for you to hold on to your intimate kiss from
your King. I think too many people are limited to today and can't see
the big picture. The last thing you want is nay-sayers, pushers, nosy
questioners, etc... This is yours to walk out. I would write about it
in a journal because one day you will want to testify and
minister about how to be joyful in the waiting for a promise. The best
gift you can give others right now is not the details of your business,
but the overflow of peace that you are gaining from trusting. You don't
need anyone saying anything that will keep your eyes on the gifts more
than the Gift-giver. One thing I know for sure...how you
walk with God through this will determine how long you walk...just like
the Israelites in the wilderness. It could have been an 11 day journey,
but because of their focus and attitude, it ended up being 40 years!
They let their eyes shift from Him to them...from what He wanted to what
they wanted. He purposefully led them to the wilderness FIRST before
the Promised Land TO TEACH THEM HOW TO WORSHIP HIM just so they wouldn't
worship their reward. In God's great love for us as His children, He
will not allow us to have idols before Him.
