A weekend of pain and love

It's finally a new week!! I thought this weekend will never end. The past weekend was so hectic with the past repeating itself once again in my home. I couldn't cry out to God enough. It felt as if my groaning was in vane.
Friday afternoon I had a feeling that something was about to happen and I started praying but to my dismay(at the time), what I dreaded happened. I thought, even asked the question out loud "Why on earth is this happening again? Why is the past repeating itself?
Then it came to me what Job says, "The very thing I feared has come upon me." Job 3:25 When those words were dropped in my spirit, I decided not to panic. I decided to encourage myself in the Lord. To tell you the truth, I found it so hard to encourage myself even though I knew it would help me rest in God.
 With all that was happening I even started to condemn myself and cast the blame all on me. I thought of speaking to someone about the trial I was going, but I did not feel comfortable doing that. So many people knows what I went through a few years back and I knew for a fact they would talk. "Strong Leslene is weak after all." In my mind that would be their words.  
I spoke to God and I trusted God to remove this giant exalting itself against the God I serve and it's all because of my weakness. I started praising and worshipping God for breakthrough. I started speaking the word to the problem and most of all, I took every negative thought captive that tried to exalt itself and brought it to the obedience of Jesus Christ.
I realized that there are times God is quiet, and until you be still and know that He is God(Ps 41:10), He will not answer.
Once again I was taught a valuable lesson and when the weekend was over I had my breakthrough. I had to show love and see this problem through the eyes of God.
I am revived. A true revival happened in my soul Sunday morning. God blessed me with an awesomely beautiful scripture and I am more than greatful for what happened.
"Arise, shine;
For your light has come!
And the glory of the Lord is risen upon you.
For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth,
And deep darkness the people;
But the Lord will arise over you,
And His glory will be seen upon you." Isaiah 60:1-2

Bless and love you

In His love

7 Blessings (Psalm 41:1-3

This morning I was reading Psalm 41 and while I was reading verse 1-3, I immediately received revelation. 
God is so awesome espacially in a moment of need, test and trial. what happens when a class is busy writing a test? There is absolute silence. There will be one or two kids who will have words but do you hear anything from the teacher? NO! The very same thing happens to us. We do not hear a single thing from the Master. 

The test builds us upa nd teaches us to know that we should be still and know that He is God.(Psalm 41:10)

Be Blessed by the revelation received from God this morning. Psalm 41:1-3
1. The Lord wll deliver you
2. The Lord will preserve you
3. The Lord will keep you aive
4. You shall be blessed on the earth
5 The Lord will protect you from your enemies.They wll not triumph over you.
6. The will stregthen you in a time of weakness
7. The Lord will heal you

Fath is what you should have during a time of need. You have the confidence  that the things you hope for and cannot see will be in your posession sooner than you think. (Hebrews 11:1)

Romans 10:17 " Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God"
God bless you abundantly

In His Love
