My Daily Life
Here's a glimpse into my daily life...
November 24, 2011

I dreamt that the dream I had last night (the night before/Nov 23) was 'REAL' and 'not a dream'. (see November 23, 2011 entry to read yesterday's dream.) When I awakened I felt very strongly that God is making a "double emphasis" of my November 23rd dream. I believe He is saying, "don't ignore it. don't slip into a place where you begin thinking, "it's ONLY a dream." "It's REAL." ) Let THAT sink in for a while.

Our 11.11.11 Gathering was a great success. The Lord is Faithful, His grace is abundant for whatever He calls us to. He provides for his purposes and plans! I am so thankful for the God-loving, people-loving servants of the Lord that He has brought into our lives as friends! They are amazing! Am amazed at all that I learned about 'Proclaiming His Word and Messages into the Heavenlies'. It's so much bigger than what He's doing in the room we are standing in. It's about what we are declaring and speaking into the spirit realm. "The spiritual moves the natural," the Lord spoke to me in 1999.

Ephesians 3:10 states very clearly:  [The purpose is] that through the church the complicated, many-sided wisdom of God in all its infinite variety and innumerable aspects might now be made known to the angelic rulers and authorities (principalities and powers) in the heavenly sphere. Amplified Version

The powers, principalities, the angelic hosts in high places, in heavenly realms all heard the Word of the Lord. It's so important that we do our best to "stick to what He tells us to do." And even after that, to discern His voice and spirit, through the people who are around us. Spirits have voices. People have voices. Cultures have voices. I realized after speaking the message the Lord gave me, that I was literally speaking into the atmosphere of the culture in the room, the city I was standing in, our region, our state, our nation, and via web streaming, every word was being carried through the airwaves out over the nations. Most important is HIS WORD being preached. And His Spirit moving through those words and upon hearts, to draw them to the Saviour, Redeemer, the Restorer of all things. Time is short, the Hour is Late, we must be busy about Our Father's business. 

LASTNIGHT'S DREAM - The END had come, and most families around the world were not prepared for it. I wept and wept and wept, until my heart felt it was breaking in two, for the truth that they were perishing, and it was now too late. I believe with all my heart, the Lord gave me that dream to impart an even deeper urgency in my spirit to go, preach, speak, pray and do everything He's commanded - winning the lost has to be our top priority - and we must do so with every resource, gift, prayer, and ounce of energy possible. WE MUST NOT LIVE LIKE WE HAVE 20, 10, 5, or even 1 more year or day left). The time is short, the hour is late. When I awakened, I felt strongly impressed that the verse that goes with this dream is one from Matthew 24 where Jesus says, the end will be "as in the days of Noah". So, I began to study this passage of scripture, along with the days of Noah surrounding the flood, and I see very clearly - the same things that Noah's generation struggled with, are happening today, in our generation. (The dream in it's entirety can be found in our November 2011 e-Newsletter. If you would like a copy of it. Email us at igniteministries@sbcglobal.net and request it, we will send a copy to the email address that you give us). God Bless you and your family, precious one.

Preparing for our 11.11.11 Gathering in Crystal Lake. I have an exceptancy in my heart that far exceeds anything of the norm. To say there is a "timing" involved doesn't even come close to describing how monumental this gathering and date is. God has been urging my heart for almost 2 years with the number 11:11. We are to be busy about His business as time is short, and hearts have been made ready to receive His perfectly timed message. "Lord, may each one that you have ordained to be there, be drawn by Your precious presence, and be full of anticipation for what you have for them and their families. May Your Name be lifted high, may Your Spirit be tangibly in our midst, may your angels cover, fill and usher us into a place in You that is far above anything in this world. We love you, Lord. You are Holy, Faithful, and True. In Jesus name."

Today, is another perfect day to continue stepping towards those who desperately need what God has so generously and graciously given me.




September 21, 2010

Today, was yet another day to see the Lord allow me to walk through a circumstance to feel what someone else feels.  I had no idea, why I was facing the grief and anxious I was in. Bewildered, I walked and prayed, "Lord, what is this all about? Why do I feel this way?" No response. An hour or so later, the phone rang. An old friend had called and had been going through the exact anxiousness that I had been facing for hours. She clearly needed prayer, and we were comforted and strengthened in our friendship. I could honestly say, "I understand. I am here. I can pray for you."  The experience left me amazed once again at a God who is often unpredictable in His workings, yet faithful and true to show us, "I am here. Always have been, and I am guiding you even when you least realize it." He is the God of wonders!

It's Focus-time. Avoiding distraction seems to be the work I do most, these days. Staying away from emotional decision-making, and doing all possible to remain sensitive to the Lord in prayer (as I parent and work), are my top priorities. How else can I be instructed, continue to walk with Jesus or know what He's asking of me for this day. Thanks for giving me holy blinders, Lord - to stay on the path. Yes, You ARE the path!

Trusting the Lord is in complete control of our lives!

While preparing to return home on a recent trip, I thanked the Lord for all He did in our hearts. He spoke to my heart so clearly, "I AM IN COMPLETE, UTTER, SUPREME, CONTROL." With that peace like a river flooded my heart and soul. And I chose in that moment to savor and meditate on that daily to cling to that truth. It in turn, has set my heart free - once again!   Trust in the Lord with ALL YOUR HEART. Lean not on your own understanding, in all your ways acknowledge Him and He WILL direct our paths.  (Proverbs 3:4-6 - fact, not fiction!)

11:11    The time is short!
Time seems only to accelerate. Surely Jesus is coming soon! The Lord keeps urging me to keep moving forward, answering the call of God on my life. As my boys grow and mature (now 13 and 18), Jesus reminds me continually, there's no greater calling & privilege on earth, than to see my family and every person possible, come to see and know Him and His love, in a very real and deep way!  Sowing into their lives is an eternal investment! For this reason I was born ~ to make Him known, with all that is within me. It's the joy of my life!

Latest prominent passage of scripture: Proverbs 1:23 - "If you had responded to my rebuke, I would have poured out my heart to you and made my thoughts known to you." NIV.  (And because I DO respond to his correction with true "repentance", I receive the greatest thing - His heart, and His thoughts).  Thank You, Lord, for grace!

I've been taking private communion with the Lord each day since the beginning of this year.  Each time spent in the quietness of my own home.  Never before have I done so on a daily basis.  And never before have I found such simple and deep satisfaction in my prayer times with Him.  It's a part of my day I look forward to.  I have grown to see, Jesus is waiting for me in those times.  Even more than I eagerly look forward to Him, He eagerly yearns to see me preparing to come and sit with Him.  What He does in my heart, as I meditate on Him, while reading through John 6, Isaiah 54, and I Corinthians 10, are more than words can find to express.  I encourage you, friend ~ if you dare to venture into this deeply rich time with Jesus on a daily basis, it's more than simply a time of remembering what He did for you.  As you take the sacraments and join with Him in heart and soul, He'll change your heart, open your eyes, sensitize your spirit, and turn you inside out in the gentlest and yet most ravenous love kind of way.  He beckons us to indulge in the reality of WHO HE IS in flesh and blood.  He yearns to be known more deeply than the day before.  He'll enable you to see more and more WHO YOU REALLY ARE to Him.  
- In Christ alone, Lisa
