"I See You"

This posting was orginally posted February 22nd, 2009. I just read it again and I wanted to share it once more. Even as I read it now our Lord's love flows through my being. I am encouraged knowing that He is with us in every situation and nothing we go through can separate us from His love. Here is "I See You"..


“For I am persuaded beyond doubt (am sure) that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities, nor things impending and threatening nor things to come, nor powers, Nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation will be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 8:38-39



“I see you”, says the Lord. “You know who you are..

“Yes you, I see that you want to give up on life…
You can’t it’s not your time yet. You have to keep fighting to live. The enemy of your soul has deceived you and is trying to get you to give up all hope on life. I know that the deceiver has been trying to convince you that I have forgotten you, that I can’t hear you, and that I just don’t care. Don’t believe these lies. I have seen your tears. I keep track of all your sorrows. I have collected all of your tears in My bottle. I have recorded each one in My book. Not one has been wasted.

I have been trying to speak to you this whole time. You ignore Me or say that was just a coincidence. You refuse to accept in your heart that I divinely appoint moments for you to see clearly that it is ME talking to you. I love you and I have a plan for your life if you will only truly trust ME. I have loved you from the first day that I started to form you in your mother’s womb. My plan was never for you to have all this heartache. I do want you to die today..die to yourself, to your flesh, to your own will. Die to fear, give up your life to Me. Lay it down on my altar of love and I will lift you up and give you a new life. A new life in ME, Christ Jesus.”

“I see you”, says the Lord. “You know who you are..

“Yes you, I see you struggling under a heavy burden…
When will you stop trying to do things on your own and in your own strength? Have you forgotten that My burden is light and my yolk is easy? You came to me for rest. If you want to find rest for your weary soul then you have to let go of your burdens. Cast all of your cares on Me because I care for you. Stop being so stubborn! Be patient. My timing is not your timing and my thoughts are not your thoughts. My ways of doing things are so much higher than yours. Don’t forget that I see the future. I know what doors to open and what doors to close. You must allow Me to have your worries and stop being so anxious. Trust Me to work things out. The only thing I asked from you is that you have faith. When I tell you to go or do something don’t hesitate do it in faith. The rest I will take care of. Remember that I will always work everything out for your good, no matter what. You can’t figure everything out all the time. You have to allow Me to be God in your life. Stop carrying these heavy burdens that the world has put on you. They did not come from me.”

“I see you”, says the Lord. “You know who you are..

“Yes you, I see you are tired of trying, tired of believing, tired of doing the right thing…
Don’t be tired my child. I know that it seems to have been a long time since I gave you the vision. Don’t be discouraged because you have not seen it completely come to pass. Take a look around and you will see that so much has changed since then. All of this must happen for the vision to be complete. Don’t lose hope. I promise if you do not get tired and give up you will reap a harvest of blessings. You have no idea the number of souls that you have influenced with your faith and love for Me. I will give you the strength you need to keep going. I will feed your determination and your desire to do My will. Thou the vision tarry wait on it.”

“I see you”, says the Lord. “You know who you are..

“Yes you, my faithful and obedient servant who loves to spend time with Me…
You put a big smile on My face. Your desire and hunger for more of Me is pleasing unto Me. I will fill you will more and more of Me. My Spirit will teach you of many things to come. Your discernment will increase and your love for others will overflow from Me. You will be my conduit of love to the world. Many will see Me in you and will believe and trust in Me. They will love Me because of you. Your love and faithfulness please me.

I see you stumble, sure. But I don’t focus on that my child. What I see is that you put out your hand to hold on to Me. You know that I am always there no matter what. You allow me to help you and so you do not fall. You trust Me. You don’t give up on us. You don’t give up on believing Me no matter what the enemy tries to tell you. You know you are mine. I am you’re True Love."

I see you ALL, my children… You are all mine! I love you and there is nothing that can separate you from Me. I will not allow the enemy to pluck you from My hand. Hold on to My Word because it will be the sword you need to fight till the end. I AM with you always..I see you!! El Roi..

From the Archives: A Word to the Faithful Servant


“Do not despise humble beginning” says the Lord. “I am teaching and growing you up in Me! I will use you to do great things. You truly have been consecrated to Me. I just want you to be patient and keep studying and preparing. This is just a small piece of what I have for you. I will use you to save many in my name. But you must learn to truly trust Me and not allow fear to control you. I will increase your power and strength in Me. Your words will bring healing and restoration, because they will be My Words. You have a mighty call and a strong word on your mouth. Don’t be afraid! You will not be liked by many, but they did not like me either. Be of good cheer because I will be with you even to the ends of the earth. Watch and see this Word come to pass. Continue to encourage others with My words.”


Zechariah 4:10 “Do not despise these small beginnings, for the LORD rejoices to see the work begin”

Ephesians 4:14-15 “That we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head-Christ”

Colossians 2:7 “Rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving.”

Joshua 3:5 Joshua told the people, "Consecrate yourselves, for tomorrow the LORD will do amazing things among you."

Hebrews 10:36 “For you have need of steadfast patience and endurance, so that you may perform and fully accomplish the will of God, and thus receive and carry away [and enjoy to the full] what is promised.”

2 Timothy 2:15 “Study and be eager and do your utmost to present yourself to God approved (tested by trial), a workman who has no cause to be ashamed, correctly analyzing and accurately dividing [rightly handling and skillfully teaching] the Word of Truth.”

Isaiah 41:13 “For I the Lord your God hold your right hand; I am the Lord, who says to you, Fear not; I will help you!

Isaiah 40:29 He gives strength to the weary and increases the power to the weak.

Matthew 10:22 All men will hate you because of me, but he who stands firm to the end will be saved.

Isaiah 55:11 So will My word be which goes forth from My mouth; It will not return to Me empty, Without accomplishing what I desire, And without succeeding in the matter for which I sent it.

From the Archives:I AM


It’s Monday again..hopefully your Sunday service was a special as mine was. Thinking about it gives me goose bumps all over again. However, we do not live on goose bumps and feelings. We live by faith. Our faith is in All Mighty God. So as we start off this week let us remember that we serve the great I AM. He is everything that we need. No problem, no trial, no test, there is nothing too big for the Great I AM.

As we think about all the things we want to accomplish this week we have to remember that we no longer have to carry heavy burdens. May the Lord give us wisdom to properly organize our week and manage our time properly. Let us be determined to do our work without grumbling and complaining, always remembering that we actually work for the Creator of Heaven and Earth. So let us bring glory to God in all that we do.

I want to encourage you to leave all of your burdens and cares with our Lord. Leave it all in His hands today. Do your part..whatever He has called you to do, but leave the burden with Him. He is able to carry all of your burdens and relieve you of doubt, fear, anxiety, and worry. Decide to trust in Him and rest in His peace knowing that our God is always in control.

When you feel tempted to worry or meditate on certain problems and situations remember the Words of the Great I Am.

“I AM..Always with you” (Matthew 28:20)
“I AM..Never going to leave you nor forsake you” (Genesis 28:15, Hebrews 13:5)
“I AM..Your strength and comfort” (Psalm 46:1)
“I AM..Your deliver” (Psalm 34:18-19, 2 Timothy 4:18, Psalms 18:1-2)
“I AM..Your provider”(Philippians 4:19, Matthew 6:28-33)
“I AM Your defender and vindicator” (Psalm 61:2-4)
“I AM Your healer” (Isaiah 53:4-5, Exodus 15:26)

“I AM all that you need!”

When you mediate on the Word of God instead of your situations you will find freedom and courage to face every day and every situation knowing that He is on your side working everything out for your good. (Romans 8:28-30)

Lord, thank you for your Word that comforts us and gives us hope and faith. We can face each day confidently knowing that the Great I AM is for us. We trust You and meditate on the truth of your Word. We will not be lead by our fickle feelings but we will trust in your Word and leave our cares and burdens in your hands. Let us bring glory to you in all that we do. In Jesus name..Amen.

Stop!! Be Still..


Do you realize that our Lord wants to talk with you? Yes, He has something to say. He has understanding and wisdom to bestow on you. He wants to give you a revelation of how much He truly loves you and thinks about you daily. But how will you ever know what He has to say if don’t sit still?

Stop moving all around. Stop cleaning. Stop cooking. Stop working, Just be still and be alone in His presence and know that He is God. He is longing for intimate time with you. Just you and your Heavenly Father enjoying each other. Your small daily prayers and talks on the way to and from work are great..but He longs for more of you. He wants you to long for more of Him too.

Go to the room and shut the door. You need this more than you know. You will be renewed, revived, and replenished in His presence. His Spirit will give you peace, joy, and strength as you meditate on His loving kindness and mercy towards you. His praises will come out of your mouth when you stop and be still long enough to see that He has always been there listening and protecting you all the days of your life. It could have been worse for you, but it’s not. You’re alive and He is not done with you yet. You will fulfill your purpose but you must stop and be still in His presence so that He can renew your strength and heal you.

The answers that you need are there. The comfort that you are longing for are there. Run as fast as you can. Close the door behind you. Close your eyes and lift up your arms ask the Holy Spirit to fill you up so that you may overflow with His power and strength. Run into His arms so that you may find rest for your weary soul.

He has been waiting for this moment. This is the time of day that He longs for. This is the time you set aside everything else, all the cares of this world and sit at His feet waiting to receive all that He has to give. Open His Word and expect to hear from God. The answers are there. Wisdom and freedom will be given to you in His presence.

The Spirit of the Lord says, “Be Still and Know that I AM God!”


"You will show me the path of life; In Your Presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore." (Psalm 16:11)


"Surely the righteous shall give thaks to Your namel The upright shall dwell in Your presence." (Psalm 140:13)

"But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the LORD will hear when I call unto him. Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah. Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the LORD." (Psalm 4:3-5)

Peace I Leave With You


When fear attacks my mind I remember that the Lord did not give me a spirit of fear, but power of love and of a sound mind. (2 Timothy 1:7) For many years I suffered from fear, anxiety, and worry. I was in bondage. About four years ago the Lord said to me, "Stop allowing yourself to be so agitated and full of fear. I have given you my peace. Walk in it"

I knew that I had read that in His Word. It was John 14:27 "Peace I leave with you; My [own] peace I now give and bequeath to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. [Stop allowing yourselves to be agitated and disturbed; and do not permit yourselves to be fearful and intimidated and cowardly and unsettled.]"

I printed it up and taped it on my bathroom mirror. It is still there to this day. Little did I know how often I would need to see that scripture first thing in the morning or right before I was going to bed. There was even one time when I was going through it and the Lord had one of my best friends send me flowers and in the post card she put that same scripture.

The Lord has gone out of His way to let me know that He wants me have peace and not allow my circumstances to intimidate me. I no longer ALLOW myself to be fearful or cowardly because I know that our God is faithful and He is for me. I fear not because I trust Him!

I encourage you not to allow anything to intimidate you or cause you to be so full of fear that you forget that our God is always on your side. If God is for us, who can ever be against us? (Romans 8:31) There will be things that happen in our lives that we do not like or understand why God has allowed, but we must never forget that God is omniscient. He knows what’s going to happen before it has even happened and He has made a way of escape for us.

When your situations gets scary and you don’t know what to do remember what Philippians 4:6-7 says “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”

James says, “Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.” (James 1:2-4) We may not like trials and test but they are good for us and we don’t need to fear them.

Lord, thank you for using the trials and tests to make us stronger more useful Christians. Help us to trust at all times and lean not on our own understanding. Give us your peace to protect our minds and hearts as we are in trusting in you to bring us through each of our situations. In Jesus name..Amen

Constantly On His Mind


I was recently sharing with a close friend how God had really revealed to me the importance of the content of psalm 139:17-18. It has been life changing to me. It says, “How precious to me are your thoughts, O God! How vast is the sum of them! Were I to count them, they would out number the grains of sand. When I awake, I am still with you.” In my spirit I knew at once that He was once again confirming to me that I am in Good hands with Him. I realized that the promise that He had shared with me several years ago in Jeremiah 29:11-13 was absolutely try. You see He promises that He has good plans for us. His plan is to give us a future and a hope. He says that when we call upon Him, pray & search for Him with all of our hearts that we will find Him. Psalm 139:17-18 made me realize that of course He has a plan. He has to. He is thinking about US all the time. His thoughts towards us are precious, adored, and treasured. In fact His DAILY thoughts towards us are so many that they can not even be counted! How amazing is that? For this reason I have surrendered everything in my life to Him. My marriage, my children, my family, my ministry, and my finances are all in His hands. I trust him because I know that He sees the future and He has a plan for me and my family. His plan is better than any plan that I can ever come up with. Even when I don’t understand why he allows certain circumstances I know in my heart that it will work out for our good.

Worry Attacks My Mind


Worry Attacks My Mind

Sometimes I find that my mind tries to lead me down the path of worry. Images of loss, despair, and fret start to play on the screen of my mind. Fear tries to take over my heart. But then I stop and realize that I don’t have to meditate on these things. I don’t have to worry about the cares of this world. My God has asked me to cast all of my cares on Him because He cares for me. He wants to carry my burdens for me. He doesn’t want me to fret about my life and how things will work themselves out. He reminds me that He has a plan for me. He has it all figured out. He sees the future and He has made a path through the wilderness. He has made a way out of no way. He has opened the doors that they said could not be opened. He has given me favor with those who would not have mercy on others. He is for me, so who can possible be against me? You see His Spirit brings to my remembrance that He is constantly thinking about me. All the time I am on His mind. I have always been on His mind. He was with me when I was being formed in my mother’s womb. This is amazing! So why should I worry? Why should I allow this world to consume me? I don’t have to! No! I don’t have to! My God loves me and cares for me dearly. He protects and saves me. I can trust Him. He gives and He takes away! His ways are not our ways and so we must trust Him in everything. He has and always will work all things out for our good.

My God is Faithful!
Psalm 40:1-3 I waited patiently for the LORD; he turned to me and heard my cry.He lifted me out of the slimy pit,out of the mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand. He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see and fear and put their trust in the LORD.
