  • Oil the Shields..

    Oil the Shields..

    These were the words I heard from the Lord as I prayed recently. I had a picture of shields that were bright, shiny and polished. They reflected such a bright light that the reflection was blinding. This verse in Isaiah 21:5 says “Rise up, captains, oil the shields!”Isaiah 21.5 The instruction here is to get…

    God’s Voice is powerful…

    I was inspired to re-post this word about God’s voice after reading The Power of Voice by Rainer Bantau. God stirred my heart and brought this word to remembrance as I read his post.

    Look the Part…Play your Part

    A #ThursdayThrowback post inspired by the Olympic Games. Look the Part…Play your part. These are the words that greeted me yesterday on a very large boxed package that arrived with my name on it.
