  Obedience - what does that look like? Obedience means - compliance with a command.  Obedience may be voluntary or involuntary.  Voluntary obedience alone can be acceptable to God. Abstaining from what is prohibited.  These are a few things that I came across when looking up what Obedience means. Over this last while Holy Spirit has been working with me on my obedience to Him. Obeying His promptings as He shows me and not putting other things first.   When I was out posting the last Newsletter through the doors of my street, I looked down an alleyway and saw a person sitting on the ground.  Instantly, I thought to go and chat to this person to see if they were okay.  Instead of doing that I finished posting the last 3 Newsletters through the doors as that was the last three houses I had to do to finish the job.  When I walked back to the lane that person was gone.  This really caused me to see that I put finishing that job first before b...

  My people perish for the lack of knowledge   When we believe something or have been trained and taught in some way it can be difficult to change that thinking.  People can talk to you until they are blue in the face and still you continue to believe what you believed before. What has been instilled into you.  Your mindset about something. How do we change if something we are doing or thinking is not a benefit to us yet we still continue to do it? Hosea 4:6 My people are destroyed for the lack of knowledge, because thou hast rejected  knowledge …. Notice in Hosea 4:6 it says they reject knowledge, so are rejecting the Word of God! When I was a young believer I was struggling with fear in my life.  I had had prayer and knew I had been set free from that hold, yet I was still experiencing those feelings and emotions associated with fear.  At that time I wanted the Lord to take it all away, for I hated fear, I hated feeling weak and not being able to do...

Jesus   Over this last year or two my life has changed dramatically.  My desires have also been changing and my heart even more so. I want to share with you just what that has mean’t for me.   I was in business, almost 30 years which involved working long hours and putting a lot of myself into it.  Things started to change for me and the joy of running this business was gone, I had no peace even though I still did the work, putting the effort and care into it as I always did, it just seemed to get harder financially, emotionally and physically.  On top of this my desire to do more for the Lord was growing in my heart, to spend time with Him, to study and share the deep love that was growing in me for Him.  I had a yearning to know Him more.   I became discouraged and burdened with the business, so there came a point nearly two years ago, that my husband and I decided to close the business down.  This was a difficult and hard decision because I...

Living life yielded to Holy Spirit                                                        Over the last few months I have been thinking about life as the title says, being yielded to Holy Spirit all the time.   I love the Lord and want others to know about Jesus so that they also can be set free from pain and torment and brokenness, to be healed in their bodies, to know the truth that sets them free.  To have a relationship with Jesus now in this lifetime. I have noticed that there have been moments that I will ponder or hesitate to share Jesus with others.  Why is this?  For many years I struggled to speak to strangers, I could have a great conversation in my head, but actually speaking out of my mouth was very difficult, so difficult that when I tried to speak it came out as a muffle or broken and the person either did not ...

  The beautiful Word of the Lord                                                                  When I first became a believer of Jesus Christ, I struggled to sit down and read the Word of God.   The Bible just looked so big and complex, I did not know where to start.   When I started to read the scriptures they did not make much sense to me. But instead of putting it aside, I pursued His Word and kept going to the scriptures.   The Holy Spirit has helped me on my journey of reading, studying, praying, confessing and mediation the Living Word of God. Firstly, this Newsletter that you are reading, this is what the Lord had me to do.   Initially...
