The Spirit Gives Life

by Apostle Gabriel Cross

Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think anything as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God; Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life. (2 Corinthians 3:5, 6)

Whereof I was made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God, given unto me by the effectual working of his power. (Ephesians 3:7)

More grace and more power be yours this day!

Date Palms Represent The Righteous

by Hazel Straub

The righteous will flourish like the date palm [long-lived, upright and useful];
They will grow like a cedar in Lebanon [majestic and stable].
Planted in the house of the Lord,
They will flourish in the courts of our God.
[Growing in grace] they will still thrive and bear fruit and prosper in old age;
They will flourish and be vital and fresh [rich in trust and love and contentment.] (Psalm 92:12-14 AMP)

The date palm trees of ancient Israel symbolize the righteous. They were medicine, food, pressed into date honey, fermented into wine, its branches used as roofs for shelters, ropes, brooms, woven mats and its trunk for construction timber. The palms grew in a hot climate, next to oasis, in deserts and in fertile areas. They provided shade. The date palms of Israel were famous and stamped on coins and decorated Solomon’s temple.

The palms take years to mature and at first grow very slowly, before a growth surge. So don’t despair, if it seems to take a long time to reach maturity. They have a complex root system that anchors the tree that can get to 120 feet (36.58 meters) tall and survive high winds. The righteous, anchored in Jesus, will flourish, through the storms.  The trees grow straight and tall, like the righteous and can live 100 years. The date palms produces sweet fruit that sustains life and is tasty. So will we, the righteous, produce good fruit of the Holy Spirit, love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness and faithfulness, even in old age.

Thrive, useful, upright, majestic, stable, with abundant life, as a date palm tree, glorifying God!

Loved Despite Your Flaws

by Hazel Straub

God is not angry with you or wanting to punish you. Instead, He is merciful and makes a way for us, when there is no way. Performance or showing extraordinary goodness are not required for his acceptance. He loves us, despite our flaws and is merciful.  He sent his beloved son, Jesus, to pay the price of our sins, so we could reconcile with him. It requires us to believe and trust him. His love enables us, to live the abundant life.

For this reason the Lord is ready to show you mercy; he sits on his throne, ready to have compassion on you.Indeed, the Lord is a just God; all who wait for him in faith will be blessed. (Isaiah 30:18 NET)

Wisdom

by Apostle Gabriel Cross

I’m worshipping Yahweh, for the Spirit of Wisdom today. I activate the Spirit of Wisdom in your life today, that you not be bogged down with the cares of this world, nor the issues of other people. God gives you supernatural, strategic creative, governmental, and judicial wisdom today.

Proverbs 17:27-28
“He that hath knowledge spareth his words: and a man of understanding is of an excellent spirit. Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise: and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed a man of understanding.” (Wisdom says, sometimes simply be quiet and let Yahweh fight your battle. Even concerning things of the past, THE BLOOD SPEAKS FOR YOU.)

Proverbs 17:9-11
‘He that covereth a transgression seeketh love; but he that repeateth a matter separateth very friends. A reproof entereth more into a wise man than an hundred stripes into a fool.” (Wisdom says, the person that deals with a wrong in love is a true covenant friend. However, the reason for many broken relationships, isn’t usually the sin committed, it’s oftentimes rooted in the MOUTH, of individuals who can’t hold their tongues. Don’t waste your oil (in your alabaster box) on foolery, fools usually aren’t correctable.)

Proverbs 26:4-6
“Do not answer a fool according to his folly, or you yourself will be just like him. Answer a fool according to his folly, or he will be wise in his own eyes. Sending a message by the hands of a fool is like cutting off one’s feet or drinking poison.” (Wisdom says, why argue with a fool, how will they know which one is the wise and which one is the fool, if you’re both arguing? Don’t respond to ignoramus people, it’s not worth your time. Remain Focused)

Proverbs 12:15
“The way of a fool is right in his own eyes: but he that listens to counsel is wise.” (Wisdom says, a fool is only right in his own eyes because of the spirit of PRIDE, only God can change the heart, it’s not your job nor responsibility. Place them in the Father’s hands and leave them there.)

I wanted to share this wisdom with you, because I have made many mistakes like the ones aforementioned. This causes me to thank God when I’m wrong, because when I can admit the wrong, then his mercy and grace kicks in and makes me strong. It’s like, people may put you down, but Jesus lifts you Up. Fortunately, I may not have that many covenant relationships, but I have had a lot of haters, whom have made me “wise” and I thank them and God for that. You ever heard, “I love you, and I want you to tell me the truth when I’m wrong,” then when you tell the truth, they shift into a different character? You ever heard, “Wow, you are sooooo anointed, then you give a word of exhortation, they find out you have flaws, or better yet, you do something they don’t like, suddenly, you’re not anointed anymore in their eyes? You ever met someone, who constantly holds you hostage to the wounds and unforgiveness of their past, while begrudgingly picking you apart with all their knowledge of the scripture?

Sometimes people act like the moment they don’t like you anymore, God doesn’t like you anymore because you speak the truth or walk in the anointing of it. The blessings on your life are not predicated on who likes you or not. Your destiny doesn’t answer to the approval of men, only the approval of God.

Wisdom says, “It’s God’s job to change them, it’s our job to love them.” Don’t try to hold onto individuals or things that Yahweh is trying to blow out of your life. When people hold you to standards that they can’t even keep themselves, release mercy on them and continue living. Because when they leave your life, God just did you a FAVOR…I pray this blesses you more than it has blessed me.

A Decree To Change Your Life!

by Hazel Straub

Decree:

I resist the devil in thought, word, and deed. Every thought taken captive, through Christ Jesus. I refuse to hang onto thoughts that will interfere with God’s purpose for my life or would keep me from intimacy with God. I am alert to every thought of worry, fear, doubt, and unbelief, every resentment, bitterness, and anger and take them captive. All of these are let go and are sent away from me. I cast all my cares on God because he cares for me.

I receive everything you have for me with open hands and open heart, Lord. Holy Spirit, you are welcome to teach and lead me into all truth and righteousness. Fully aligned with you, Lord, and your kingdom, I meditate on your Word. Take all I am and make me into a beautiful tapestry, for your glory.

If you will humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, in his good time he will lift you up. Let him have all your worries and cares, for he is always thinking about you and watching everything that concerns you. (1 Peter 5:6-7 TLB)
