The Redemption of Canaan

I've said it before and God said it to me again, "Do not worry for the things of the world," He said to me this morning.

"Do not worry for what you will see and for what you will hear," says the Lord in regard to the future of America, Israel, and the other nations connected to us.  "Do not worry over what you will hear the media saying; what the politicians and leaders are saying, and even what the prophets and preachers are saying.  For they see in part and prophecy in part."   And I, as the maidservant of the Lord, only see in parts that seem to fill in the blanks of the parts of others.

The Lord God spoke to me this morning and told me yes, it's going to look bad - really bad.  President Barak Obama must needs be - and the things of this world and the decisions he will seem to make must need be.  The Lord God has said He will redeem Canaan through President Barak Obama.  But it will look very bad before this is evident.

The preachers and prophets that see President Barak Obama signing against Israel in the guise of Peace are right in as much as they can see.  The connections his critics try to make between the President and the Muslim nations must need be.  "How can a people be moved if they feel have no connection to the one whom I (sayeth the Lord God Almighty), have chosen to move them?  I will redeem Canaan and bring reconciliation to my lost and dispatched, dispised and rejected sons and daughters through President Barak Obama.  Not because he is a Muslim bent on destroying America (which he is not), nor because he is working on behalf of the plans of the devil to destroy Israel (which he - Obama - is not)."

The devil has no plans - he is part of a plan that he has already lost.  And the role President Barak Obama will play are on the side of good and not evil, blessings and not cursings - life and not death. But it will not seem so.  Up until the very last it will not seem so.  The media will report that President Barak Obama "has signed it" - and it will seem the worst fears of Christian and Jewish leaders for America and Israel have come to pass in favor of what Islam and Muslim leaders are fighting for.

"But the Holy Spirit will not be mocked and I, the Lord your God am not a man, that I should lie. What I have spoken, shall accomplish what I set it out to do, and I shall see My precious son Barak come into the fullness of My Spirit and My purpose for him, for America, for Israel and for Canaan.  For I know the thoughts I have of you, thoughts of good and not evil to give you an expected end."

What the prophets, preachers, teachers, political leaders and media spin-doctors expect - and what they shall see, and what they shall report are not of Me, sayeth the Lord our God.  "For my ways are not your ways, my thoughts are not your thoughts. Lean NOT unto your own understanding!" commands the Lord our God.

When it comes to the seeming end, you will think the Lord God has forsaken America and Israel.  "You will think My Word as void. Jesus, My Word and My Glory, will prevail and has prevailed.  Canaan has been redeemed just as Israel has been blessed.  The temple plans have been laid for its rebuilding. Isreal and all the seed of Abraham have been promised to receive vineyards they did not plant and houses they did not build. Do not suppose your partial vision and partial understanding is all of Me - if any man think He is a prophet I, the Lord your God will reveal myself to him in dreams and in visions, but I show in part and reveal in part, that you may see in part and prophecy in part.  But I will not move upon the Earth without first revealing my secrets unto the hearts of man."

America has a prominent prophetic role in the history of this world's future.  But many cannot see this nation written in the pages of God's word.  But just as Israel is scattered and fractured, yet spoken of as a whole, so is America one, but you will find her spoken of in the pages of God's word as scattered and fractured - parts of separate wholes.

Israel is blessed and has been from the dawn of the age.  America is blessed, for the prayers of her citizens were heard before the formation of the heavens and the earth.  "And make no mistake," sayeth the Lord our God, "President Barak Hussein Obama is a child of God - a most precious child of God - chosen, ordained, consecrated and highly anointed for such a time as this and for this purpose and unto the utmost Glory of the Most High God!  Do not mess with Mine anointed! For My Kingdom is come.  My will is done, on Earth, just as it is in Heaven."

Let all who have an ear to hear, let them hear.  Amen.

Power, Love & Peace - ya'll

Destiny's Journey


Some journeys are well traveled roads. Common, familiar and easy. We cruise along the path oblivious to the process as we habitually turn each corner, climb each hill and break each slope. Only to arrive, blink and wonder how we managed without incident or memory of the trip.

This journey - my journey - is not like that. This journey is one of reluctance, hesitance, unsurity, insecurity and yes, a moderate amount of fear.

As I open the window for you to view my progress, you will undoubtedly come to your own conclusion based upon the progress of your own journey - and your observations will be varied.

Some might say that I am making slow but steady progress toward a clear destination. Others may say that I am floundering and wandering aimlessly down a muddy road with too many directions to choose from.

I say my journey has just begun, although it started more than 10 years ago. I say I still have such a long, long way to go, although I am teetering on the precipice of completion. I say the journey has made me weary, leery and weak, although I trudge on with a strength and endurance that is beyond me. I say the path is muddy, with many obstacles, directions and difficulties still yet to come. However, my destination is clear - crazy, unimaginable, overwhelming and clear.

When this path first appeared it was like a hazy, dirt road on a foggy day. I peered at it without knowing what it was or where it was going - then tried to ignore it as inconsequential. When the path persisted I joked as to where it might lead, then still tried to dismiss it as a path not meant for me.

It was years before the view of the path cleared and I was able to see the destination more clearly. It was absurd to think that the reality of where this path could end up would be in a place far more outlandish than even my most absurd imaginings! OK, maybe - just maybe this path ended up in a very good place - but a place still not meant for me. Definitely not me.

Why not me? Who else but me, since I was the only one to see? Please, Dear God, not me! Yes, me. This path was meant for me.

And so I watched it, argued with it, denied it and tried to imagine a life without pursuing it.

Four - no five, has it already been five? Five years ago I accepted it. I stuck out a big toe like testing the cold water of a pool - then yanked my foot back like I so often would. I wrote about it, dreamed about it, and tried it on for size in the privacy of my dressing room of life. And by the way, I still watched it, argued with it, denied it and tried to imagine a life without pursuing it.

Three - sorry, I forgot - Four years ago I made up my mind. I packed my bags, said good bye to the sanity and sanctuary of friends and family who always had thought they understood me, and I took my first hesitant and frightened step.

In these last four years I have walked, sometimes trotted, but never quite run toward a goal I think is crazy. I have stopped, I have even sat down and I have wistfully looked back to a time when I did not know and could not see what was meant for me.

But I will not stop. I packed my bags (all my baggage), and made up my mind. Armed with nothing but 2 scriptures and a great deal of hope, I continue to trudge on driven by the surity that if - just if - I happen to arrive at this awesome, fearsome destination, it will be extraordinary, phenomenal and inconceivably wonderful. This destination...

A destination, a journey to a place that is called destiny. My destiny. Destiny's purpose in life. My God given purpose.

Sometimes while we travel, we see another driver, glance in that direction and never take note or give them another thought. Perhaps that is how you will see me.

Sometimes we see another traveler and something catches our eye. We may watch a moment, muse a moment or even briefly wonder... Then they continue on their own separate way and thoughts of them fade as quickly as they do. Perhaps that will be how you see me.

Other times we get caught in traffic, bunched up with drivers because of fate. And whether we cruise along peacefully or struggle with road rage, we share a community of progress, each with our own destination. Perhaps that will be how you experience me.

And on rare occasion on our own individual roads of life, we travel a path where we encounter another driver - seemingly traveling to the same basic place. At times they follow us and then we follow them. We may take note of who they are and what they drive - possibly even read a licence plate. We'll share a moment or even a long while - silently and separately together, with maybe a glance, a smile or a brief a wave of acknowledgement. Perhaps that will be how you experience me.

I cannot say how long this path will be for me, so whether you glance and move on - never to take notice; or whether you wonder a moment at who I am and where I'm going; or whether you follow a while, smile and wave or better yet, if you decide to stay for the journey, I invite you to come along for the ride.
