therefore He is able to save completely.

let me tell you what He has done for me.

He has restored to me all that i have lost. He has preserved me, He has been hiding me in His hand. He has kept the treasure that is inside of me, safe. i have been in His hands, untouched and unseen.
i am a jewel in His hand, a diamond too beautiful for words- for His display. i am His bride, displaying His splendor. i am an esther- intended to change nations. He is removing the spirit of orphanhood. He wants to beautify me, so that i may reign in His palace, to be His bride. He wants to beautify me from the roots up, from my very foundation. He is taking the beauty on the inside of me and bringing it out, to draw out the beauty in others. He will use me to go rescue people from darkness, from the pits of hell- and draw the beauty out of them.
He has given me a gift, He has given me the ability to see people through His eyes. to see them the way He sees them.
He has given me a unique ministry. one that is different.
i am chosen, i am a lily among thorns. i am destined for greatness, not for failure. i dont need to be afraid. He is going to use my past and the pain i have experienced to bring healing and life to others.
on march 28, 2008 the enemy thought that he won. he thought that he stole all i had, and to be honest, i did too. until today. my Father- in His wisdom- has won. He has restored. He has preserved. He has healed me. and the battle is won.
i cant believe it.


..now, all of this came through a few people praying over me. people spoke words over me as i cried and received and laughed and cried. they spoke these words that resonated so deeply in my soul. old roots of worthlessness and defilement were uprooted, as new ones of healing, purity, deep love were grounded. im amazed at the way that God works. i am amazed that He has given me these gifts, that He views me the way that He does. i am amazed that He saves completely. i am amazed that i cannot overestimate His love. im amazed that He calls me bride and He means it. im amazed at the things that are inside of me. and im amazed that i have believed so many lies for so long. its all amazing, its all beyond me.

and i pray that everyone reading this takes time to listen to His voice, because He will speak words over you that will not leave you the same again. whenever He talks to you, its like youre the only person in the whole world. maybe its something about the tone of His voice, or the way He says it, or the sweetness of His words.
or maybe its the fact that the same Word that gave birth to the stars and the earth and the sea, is the same Word that speaks to us now. no wonder it resonates so deeply in our soul. its because its the Truth. the ultimate Truth. and when you hear His voice, your soul will affirm that this is the Truth- this is what youve been waiting to hear. and friend, i promise that the Truth He speaks will set you free.
