Hosea 6:3 NIV, “Let us acknowledge the LORD; let us press on to acknowledge him. As surely as the sun rises, he will appear; he will come to us like the winter rains, like the spring rains that water the earth.” The Spirit of the Lord is saying: Beloved, I am healing broken relationships between…

Five lies we tell ourselves when we are off-course (2)

Self-sabotage takes on many forms in our lives as scribes, artisans and just plain people of God. It is often drenched in chronic procrastination, extreme excuse making, a flurry of endless unfruitful activity and a host of other bomb-shells focused on self-directed implosion that work wonders in turning dreams and hope to dust.
How do I know? Well, because I have had to overcome them. I had to realize that God isn’t a time waster. He IS a finisher. Me, on the other hand, not so much without Him. I knew that if I was going to finish what he had entrusted to me that I had to do it in His strength — not my own. That meant Theresa had to recognize self, work at defeating those “Theresa-habits” and allow God to have his way.

The Vision
As I prayed over Voices of Christ today, I saw a dark “Charlie Brown” rain cloud over the heads of some of God’s people. Everywhere they went, this cloud followed succinctly – remaining directly above the head bringing forth lightning and dark rain. These believers were moving about in the midst of a blinding sun within their communities; but they could not see the bright light of the son. For those who are not familiar with this example in the old Charlie Brown cartoons, the dark cloud came with its own personal storm and would follow the characters around to signify their depressive moods. (The Lord often uses familiar scenes from my life to illustrate his word in the Spirit. I have learned to share these illustrations with confidence and scriptural support.)
