RHEMA 1/15/03 BLOOPERS DOOPERS

Today when I read the following PonderWord, I evidently blooped my name. Here is a note from one of my readers. Living parables, I love them even if it comes out bloopers!

Dear Sandy:

I love how God works.

Even your name below was "misplaced"

You are the messenger!

DISPLACED FOR A PURPOSE

DISPLACED FOR A PURPOSE

In this last season, there were many who were knocked out of alignment within My body. Disjointed and in pain, they suddenly became dislocated, no longer having a place. This was the work of the enemy to stop their freedom of expression in Me. Even though painful, I allowed this for My own purposes of harvesting the fruit and pruning the branches for a flourishing season yet to come. Let the pain go and yield it all to Me, your Master Gardner. For I will nurture you and heal you and bring you into My place, the place I have prepared for you.

Release all personal ambition for ministry, even your godly zeal to Me. Give no room for competition, jealousy, pride, comparison, or self promotion. If you humble yourself before Me and allow My pruning to be thorough, then I shall bring you into a new place of favor and honor, one of My own doing and defense. You will find that in yielding all to Me, you will never have to defend yourself, or promote yourself again. In that day, I shall send you and I will back you with signs following and My anointing will carry you far beyond your greatest expectations.

"I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. He cuts off every branch that doesn't produce fruit, and he prunes the branches that do bear fruit so they will produce even more." (John 15:1-3 NLT)

WORD TO PONDER TRUST ME IN YOUR MISTAKES 1/15/03

I AM the God Who redeems. If you ask Me to do so, I will redeem your mistakes and open your eyes to see them turned to good. Your faith will be encouraged when you realize that I not only cover you with My love and mercy, but also My favor. Watch what I can do through your frailty of humanity and rejoice that My lovingkindness is everlasting.

“Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits: Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases, Who redeems your life from destruction, Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies…” (Ps 103:2-4 NKJV)
