But expect the unexpected, and expect everything.<BR/> <BR/>Everyday, since I have a relationship with the Father, Lord Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit, I live to expect a miracle every day. Is that good or bad? I don’t know. And I cannot tell you where there it is or not. But one thing I do know, I expect a miracle from my Heavenly Father every morning of every day. I make no apology for that, because, I believe without a shadow of a doubt, our God, our Father wants us to have that kind of desire and expectation from Him. I cannot tell you I receive some material things every day. No! But I can tell you each day a Miracle happen to me. “I am more alive each day, because every day He blesses me with a new life, a new revelation, new dreams, and something new to look forward always".<BR/><BR/> Bishop! I understand now, why Apostle Paul said: He couldn’t give an explanation to anyone, concerning the third heaven (2 cor12:2) because even he couldn’t understand, or putting into words himself. So, Sunday that’s what happened to me. Sunday’s message, certainly made me appreciate the wonders of God’s more. It was like a cup of cold water to my soul, after some good manna. Like the grace of God.<BR/><BR/> #3 comment, minister to me: today I will bring supernatural restoration to those who have disappointed in covenant relationship for the REPAIRING OF THE BREACH. I will be willing to be a physician of the souls to those who are disconnected. By their own sin-consciousness and self-condemnation. My miraculous words of grace and mercy will set the captives free in ways that will amaze all who are involved.<BR/><BR/> Isaiah 26:3- You will in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in you.-12- LORD, you establish Peace for us; all that we have accomplished you have done for us. <BR/><BR/>Grace, Peace, and Love cover us all,<BR/> Bonjour, keketteKettlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00810292986543473690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-96114027914038785.post-41805414686167951392008-04-29T01:30:00.000-04:002008-04-29T01:30:00.000-04:00Just some thoughts and gratitude...It’s not that u...Just some thoughts and gratitude...<BR/><BR/><I>It’s not that unusual <BR/>When everything is beautiful. <BR/>It’s just another ordinary miracle today. <BR/><BR/>The sky knows when its time to snow, <BR/>Don’t need to teach a seed to grow. <BR/>It’s just another ordinary miracle today. <BR/><BR/>Life is like a gift they say <BR/>Wrapped up for you everyday; <BR/>Open up and find a way <BR/>To give some of your own. <BR/><BR/>Isn’t it remarkable? <BR/>Like every time a rain drop falls, <BR/>It’s just another ordinary miracle today. <BR/><BR/>Birds in winter have their fling <BR/>But always make it home by spring. <BR/>It’s just another ordinary miracle today. <BR/><BR/>When you wake up everyday <BR/>Please don’t throw your dreams away; <BR/>Hold them close to your heart <BR/>Cause we’re all a part <BR/>Of the ordinary miracle. <BR/>Ordinary miracle <BR/><BR/>Do you want to see a miracle? <BR/>ohh ohh ohh, ohhh ohh ohh... <BR/><BR/>It seems so exceptional <BR/>That things just work out after all. <BR/>It’s just another ordinary miracle today. <BR/><BR/>Sun comes up and shines so bright <BR/>And disappears again at night. <BR/>It’s just another ordinary miracle today. <BR/>ohh ohh ohh, ohh ohhh ohh... <BR/>It’s just another ordinary miracle today. </I><BR/><B>--Ordinary Miracle by Sarah McLachlan</B><BR/><BR/>I heard this song on TV for the first time a few months back and was drawn to research the lyrics to see what God might be saying through them...they fit well in today's post so I repeat them for everyone to Selah and to enjoy.<BR/><BR/>It makes me very happy to read about how our Bishop is taking these gigantic first steps into this arena...the arena of <B>World Peace</B>...allow me to speak that again please...Our Bishop and Pastor Debye are involved in an organization devoted to <B>WORLD PEACE!</B> Do we all really "get it" or is it still sinking in?

You want to be part of this great move...this New thing? Then you gotta go "all in"...it's up to each of us to do it or to let it pass by and try to explain how it is that we just didn't feel like putting in the effort...I don't know about you but I don't want to have to explain my lack of trying or lack of belief in God...I just want to do what He has for me to do here and when the time comes, be tossing my crowns at His feet. I think you all get the meaning. You're in or your out...Step Up...Pick a Side!<BR/><BR/>I'm glad to see PM and DBA back among the living and so many others who have become part of my day...y'all are important to me even if I only have time for a blurk-by to post later, it's important to have y'all here. <BR/><BR/>Bishop, Your illustrative selections were especially amazing today and am so glad your day...while surreal...was so obviously ordered steps...please do tell us more after you get some rest...but that first shot just screams possibilities...it's all creation about to groan again...I know we get frustrated with the waiting but I was imagining how frustrated the rest of creation is after all the waiting and groaning!

Glad to hear the plans for the trip went well Bishop, looking forward to a good report. And Laura, I love that song. I've always been a MC fan (old school Mariah more than her current stuff, which I could post a whole nother blog about, but I digress), and the interesting thing about her is, her most inspirational songs(Through the Rain, Make it Happen-my personaL fave) have always come after a trial.

I thought I was the least religious person you would ever meet and yet today as I passed several businesses of prosperous people we know, I thought to myself -self here we are in the building business trying our da@#dest to walk in integrity in all that we do and it "appears" that it is falling apart at the seams. Yet these people are cheating on their wives or husbands or giving everything back to the banks and sticking their subcontractors, stealing money from their parents and keeping construction draws to run away, and they seem to be doing fine,,so I said to God today What is up with that? We have sacrificed and are sacrificing ALL to walk this thing out in integrity...then here comes Jane wishing the same wages on those who have chosen to walk differently. That is SO cool and I just pray that I can get ahold of that because it is a Jesus concept I obviously have yet to grasp. So thank you Jane. By the way- all the pics are cool, but obviously I need to check them out again because I was way too busy working out everybody elses moral issues. P.S.

But I was wondering if you are interested in advertising in a theatre souvinir book for a production that I am directing this weekend. By the way, my name is Laphilia Butler. The show is called Mama Peavy & Friends: Healing through Laughter. It is comedy variety show that features musicans, dancers, comedians, and short comedic scripts. It is a small production with a small budget but we are looking to cut some costs through sponsors. We still have the inside full-space ad spaces available. The fee is only $250 for a full color ad. You'll be included on our website as well. For more information about the productions, please visit www.mamapeavy.com. If you are unable to purchase ad space, perhaps you'd be interested in buying tickets to see the show or donating purchased tickets. You may contact me at laphilia_butler@hotmail.com. By the way, I am a blurker. I don't contribute much but I enjoy the posts.

My problem is I don't want to "bother God" with the "everyday" stuff. I feel selfish asking for healing in my knee when one of my former students has an inoperable brain tumor. How dare I ask for a companion when he has broken marriages to restore. Feeling worthy is something I've got to accept in all areas of my life, my spiritual walk is no exception,Ebonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04399710236270147676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-96114027914038785.post-73152504574600136642008-04-28T16:11:00.000-04:002008-04-28T16:11:00.000-04:00All the pics are mind expanding.

On the topic of believing for miracles, here’s mine:<BR/><BR/>I don’t think I ever really understood the parable of the eleventh hour laborers, but the Lord gave me this rhema word (maybe just for me): I’ve been sitting under Bishop’s teaching for, what, a quarter century? Yikes. I’ve labored, at least in my little world, to make what I’ve heard a reality. For my wages, all I ever expected of the Lord was a good life - (Don’t start…“There’s no normal life, Wyatt, there’s just life...”) - not a perfect life, just a good one. He’s given me that.<BR/><BR/>Recently, I’ve been thinking about all my natural brothers and sisters. How they haven’t had the years of revelation teaching or hours of praise & worship that I’ve had, not to mention their familiar stories about how it’s our parents’ fault for _____ (fill in the blank for the addiction/sorry life circumstance du jour). It’s interesting that we weren’t raised with the Bible belt devil, but we managed to conveniently assign them the role – must be human nature. So now, instead of me trying to get them to “perceive correctly,” (Yeah. That’ll happen.) what I really want is for them to receive the same wages I’ve been given, and to receive them in this life! I have no idea how that can happen, but I believe the Owner of the vineyard is that generous, that the miraculous is that close, and the Spirit is that cool!<BR/><BR/>JaneAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-96114027914038785.post-13697176837477105642008-04-28T15:29:00.000-04:002008-04-28T15:29:00.000-04:00Favor, favor, miracle favor all over, under, aroun...Favor, favor, miracle favor <BR/>all over, under, around and through your trip to DC!<BR/><BR/>Robyn, coffee pot is in the corner.<BR/>"all with strength and dance, and creative beauty.

I keep thinking of the pictures Jesus painted with His parables, and the different versions recently of BLOGINTHENOW. <BR/><BR/>Pictures in a "published" AYITN Illustrated could become like the logos? But AYITN Illustrated, updated "whenever" on BLITN, is a living rhema word.
