Agape Love Works

 
 
This past weekend was terrific because Matt Sorger and Dr. Cindy Trimm came to our city. I have followed and admired both of their ministries for a couple of years now, so to have both here was a special treat.

Needless to say, Pappa showed up and gave His people fresh fire, fresh anointing. On Sunday, Dr. Trimm stood me up in the middle of the aisle and threw one of those covering blankets at my stomach (she is famous for doing that- the anointing is released from her that way for some reason).  Well, the next thing I know, I'm on the ground and just soaking in Pappa's sweet, sweet presence.

Ohhhh... I just love Him so much. If you just knew how real He is... how good He is... how He wants to love on us, and spend time with us. It feels so good to have His glory consuming the atmosphere. There's no other place I'd rather be.

The IHOP here in this city just confirmed that Kimberly & Alberto Rivera will be here in October. I had never heard of them until today. Well, I listened to some of their soaking, prophetic music and it immediately ushered in God's glory in my home. I am adding one of their videos here for your soaking pleasure as well.

Be blessed.. I pray your spiritual journey is going well... and please keep me and this ministry up in your prayers.

Love,
Keisha Dawn
 
 
What I am finding in this journey is that right before the breakthrough, there is such pushback, there seems to be setback but we have to push forward. We have to be stronger than the dark forces. Greater is He that is in us than he that is in the world.

So if He that is in us is greater than the darkness in this world, we do not set our eyes on our present situations. We do not set our eyes on the battle before us.

The battle belongs to the Lord!
He shall fight for us and we shall hold our peace.

So when you run across someone in darkness that is trying to stand in your way, hit them with a love bomb! Love conquers all. Don't let that gunk that's on them hop on you. You love them out of that gunk. You love them anyway. For those of us who call ourselves Christians, we need to be sure that we not only love Christ, but we love our enemies. It is easy to love others who like us, who support us and who honor us.

But I tell you what, those folks who are jealous, who are competitive, who have nothing to do but figure out how to make you miserable too? Is that a challenge to love them or what?

But I say unto you this- if you lack love, ask the Lord to enlarge your vessel, to pour out more of His love into you so that your cup runs over and everywhere you go, people feel His glory surrounding you. They will get consumed with His love as it pours out of you. We do not have the capacity to love others in our own strength that do us wrong. No, the world wants to war against our enemies. The world wants to fight back and retaliate. This is not the right way. This is the world's way. We are greater than this world. We are put here to establish and expand God's Kingdom throughout the land.

So when those ancient gates rise up and you enter in, be sure you have on the Armor of God. Be sure your face is set like flint. Because you will need a strength beyond your capacity, you will need a love beyond human capability, you will need wisdom and direction straight from Poppa. You will need to stay in the Holy of Holies and drink of Him and eat of Him. Consume yourself in His presence, consume yourself in His love.

Then, and only then, can you finish your Kingdom assignments.

I speak a greater love over all that read this! I speak a greater faith among God's people. I speak a revival to hit this dry, barren land. Consume us with your glory, Lord! We welcome you, for it is not by might, nor by power but by Your spirit.

Whatever we ask, if we ask according to God's Will and in the name of Jesus Christ we will receive it.

So I say again, set your face like flint and know that Poppa is true to His word. You keep your eyes on Him at all times. Ten thousand may come against you but they will fall, they will not harm you, they will not come near your tent.

You rest in the Lord's power, in His strength, and set your face like flint, so when you bring your slingshot back and aim at your Golaith, you know he is going to fall down. You speak to your mountains and with faith, tell them to move.

Grace and peace upon you...

Well, after months of birthing this vision, I received a prophetic Word and scriptures from a dear Pastor and President of a Christian college this past week.

You know, Pappa is so amazing.
I am sure you have wonderful testimonies of how He has come through for you as well.

Hopefully, I'll get to meet you at one of the cities I'm touring this fall and upcoming spring. We can share testimonies.

I will be away for a while on this travel, so if you'll be in one of the cities and you're pursuing a graduate degree in particular, feel free to register (the events are *FREE* and the networking lunch is $20. We do have limited spacing, so if you are unable to attend you'll be missing out... go register now and claim your space and pass the word... (http://www.gradprep.org)

And please keep me up in your prayers! There are always a handful that will try to block the Kingdom from advancing, but you and I both know they are not bigger than God! Pappa will have His way.

I love Him so much... and I love you... thank you so much for following this blog and I pray you've been edified here.

Now, let's connect in person....

I'll see you at one of the events coming up!

Love you,
Sis Keisha Dawn
 
 
Lately during prayer time the Lord has been speaking and I've scribed in my personal journal. Sometimes, I am allowed to share with others, other times not.

The past two days, the words from Him were accompanied by Psalm 146. I keep reading it over and over and standing on it.

Here are words I received and scribed this morning... I pray you are blessed by these words...

Cast down all fear, all anxiety
Focus on me, not on you
I am greater than any inhibition you have
or the way you think others perceive you.
How do I view you?
This is what counts.

If I am pleased with you, you need not worry about this world.
Stand on my promises.
Ask for more faith in increasing measure.
Then receive.
Speak my Word into the atmosphere, speak my Word into
every situation, every tribulation.

Then you will know that I am the Lord your God... that
I keep my promises.

I am the God of Israel... who was, and is, and is to come.

I feel compelled to write about the subject of Honor at this time for several reasons.

We are commanded to honor those in authority, our Mother and Father, our spouses, God's prophets, Israel, etc.

However, I have noticed in increasing measure spirits of disrespect, of jealousy/envy, of disregard, of slander and strife... these behaviours are in direct disobedience to God's Word and when we continue to operate in these behaviours we will inevitably eat its fruit. For whatever we sow, we shall also reap.

When you sense that negativity is attacking you, see if you had any part of it. If so, ask for forgiveness from the other person. Set the example through love, even if they continue to act negative towards to you.

In this economy, when jobs are scarce, be sure to always operate in a spirit of Honor. Honor your employer. Honor yourself by doing the best work possible and do it unto the Lord. Honor others and love your enemies. Sounds cliche', perhaps. However, if you want to see progress in your life and doors open, Honor works.

If the Lord has chosen someone to lead a vision, Honor them.  Is it wise to disrespect them, argue with them or speak to them in harsh tones... especially if they sign your paycheck? Is it wise to withhold information from them?

If your supervisor asks you to do something, do it promptly and with a joyful heart. They will notice your great attitude and you will win favor.

Even Nehemiah was wise enough to use Honor to win favor with King Artaxerxes (see Nehemiah Chapter 2). By serving the King and speaking to him with respect ("if it pleases the king...") , Nehemiah won favor and was able to rebuild the city of Judah. I also like the fact that he kept in touch with King Artaxerxes while building and even returned to him. (see Nehemiah Chapter 13:6-7)

If you have fallen into negative behaviours, repent to the Lord and ask for forgiveness from those you have dishonored. If your pride gets in the way, you need to renounce it and operate in a spirit of humility.

Pride inhibits progress.

And if you are a Christian, I am writing this especially to you because the world is looking at us. You need to represent Christ and all that He stands for. And it goes beyond saying you are a Christian. Your behaviour and tone towards others should reflect Christ's behaviour and tone.

I speak this unto you in a spirit of love... to God be the glory. If you are offended by this writing, renounce that spirit of offense and receive these words with a soft heart and ears that hear.

If you want to be promoted to the next level.. if you want to see progress in your life.. operate in the spirit of Honor towards others... you will see doors open, favor, promotions and people will speak highly of you.

For those that receive these words in their spirit and choose to honor others, I speak progress and promotion over you, in Jesus name.

Grace and peace upon you,
Sis Keisha Dawn

I am going to include a series in this blog moving forward for the intellectuals and the skeptics out there. Sometimes, I run across these types and short of praying for them and continuing to reflect Christ in my words and actions, there's not too much else I can do because the Bible says the devil blinds them.. they have spiritual scales over their eyes so they can not see. 2 Corinthians 4:4

For the first entry in this series, I"d like to show how even NASA references the Bible in their work with space.

For the believers, I hope this makes you smile. For unbelievers, I pray this is a seed planted in your spirit and that ultimately, you will see the Living God and you will see that the Bible is infallible and 100% true.

Love,
Sis K.D.......


NASA & THE BIBLE- in Agreement!

I thought this was pretty amazing and interesting!

For all the scientists out there, and for all the students who have a hard time convincing these people regarding the truth of the Bible, here's something that shows Yahweh's awesome creation, and that He is still in control.

Did you know that the space program is busy proving that what has been called 'myth' in the Bible is true?

Mr. Harold Hill, President of the Curtis Engine Company in Baltimore, Maryland, and a consultant in the space program, relates the following development.

'I think one of the most amazing things that has Yahweh done for us today happened recently to our ast ronauts and space scientists at Green Belt, Maryland .

They were checking out where the positions of the sun, moon, and planets would be 100 years and 1,000 years from now. We have to know this so we won't send up a satellite and have it bump into something later on in its orbits.

We have to lay out the orbits in terms of the life of the satellite and where the planets will be so the whole thing will not bog down.

They ran the computer measurement back and forth over the centuries, and it came to a halt. The computer stopped and put up a red signal, which meant that there was something wrong with either the information fed into it or with the results as compared to the standards. They called in the service department to check it out, and they said, 'What's wrong?' Well, they found there is a day missing in space in elapsed time.

They scratched their heads and tore their hair out. There was no answer.

Finally a Christian man on the team said, 'You know, one time I was in Sunday School, and they talked about the sun standing still.' While they didn't believe him, they didn't have an answer either, so they said, 'Show us, '

He got a Bible and went to the book of Joshua where they found a pretty ridiculous statement for any one with 'common sense.'

There they found the Yahweh saying to Joshua,

'Fear them not, I have delivered them into thy hand; there shall not a man of them stand before Thee.'

Joshua was concerned because he was surrounded by the enemy! And if darkness fell, they would overpower them. So Joshua asked the Yahweh to make the sun stand still! That's right... 'The sun stood still and the moon stayed and lasted not to go down about a whole day!'
(Joshua 10:12-13)

The astronauts and scientists said, There is the missing day! They checked the computers going back into the time it was written and found it was close but not close enough. The elapsed time that was missing back in Joshua's day was 23 hours and 20 minutes. not a whole day.

They read the Bible, and there it was about [approximately] a day. These little words in the Bible are important, but they were still in trouble because if you cannot account for 40 minutes, you'll still be in trouble
1000 years from now.

Forty minutes had to be found because it can be multiplied many times over in orbits. As the Christian employee thought about it, he remembered somewhere in the Bible where it said the sun went BACKWARDS.

The scientists told him he was out of his mind, but they got out the Book and read these words in 2 Kings that told of the following story: Hezekiah, on his death bed, was visited by the prophet Isaiah who told him that he was not going to die. Hezekiah asked for a sign as proof. Isaiah said 'Do you want the sun to go ahead 10 degrees?'

Hezekiah said, 'It is nothing for the sun to go ahead 10 degrees, but let the shadow return backward 10 degrees.' Isaiah spoke to the Lord, and the Lord brought the shadow ten degrees BACKWARD! Ten degrees is exactly 40 minutes!'

Twenty-three hours and 20 minutes in Joshua, plus 40 minutes in Second Kings make the missing day in the universe! Isn't it amazing?

References: Joshua 10:8 and 12,13 and 2 Kings 20:9-11.

Forward this to as many people who you believe would think this is equally as cool. If Yahweh could do this then; how much more can he do for us today. If we only believe in his word. Never be afraid to try something new.

 
 

Well, hello!

This is the day that the Lord has made... I will rejoice and be glad in it!
I finished up the fast last Saturday and encourage any and all readers to
do so when the Holy Spirit leads you.

In this post, I want to teach on the difference between Living by the Spirit vs. Living by the Flesh. Please turn to Galatians 5:16-26

What I suggest is that you form a checklist and keep it posted in various places to do a quick assessment on what type of fruit is being produced in your life. I don't know about you, but I don't want to get to a point in this journey where my flesh gets in the way and everything that has been built falls apart because the wrong fruit is being produced.

Here is the Checklist:
FRUITS OF THE SPIRIT
note: if you lack in any of these areas, ask the Holy Spirit to do a work in you so that you produce the fruit in increasing measure:

LOVE
JOY
PEACE
PATIENCE
KINDNESS
GOODNESS
FAITHFULNESS
GENTLENESS
SELF-CONTROL

FRUIT FROM THE FLESH
conceit
provoking and envying one another
impurity and debauchery
idolatry and witchcraft
hatred
discord
jealousy
fits of rage
selfish ambition
dissensions
factions and envy
drunkenness
orgies

....any of the above fruit from the flesh sound familiar? 

Let us pray...
Father God,

We bow before you in the mighty name of your son, Jesus Christ.
We thank you for this beautiful Monday to live and produce for your Kingdom. We thank you for your presence and love and grace. We thank you for being the Great I Am, there is no one or nothing like you, Lord.

We ask your forgiveness, Father, for the times we have walked in the flesh... the times we have sinned. Father God, we need your help to walk by the Spirit and not by flesh. We want to produce good fruit for Your kingdom, Lord... to live holy and righteous. We submit to you Lord and we allow the Holy Spirit to begin cleansing us from the inside out. I understand it is a process, Father, and I yield to it instead of fighting it. My Will is to live by the Spirit, not by the Flesh. I make the choice this day. I receive your cleansing, and I begin this sanctification process by faith.

In Jesus name I pray,
Amen.

Let us do an assessment throughout the day to ensure that we are operating in the Spirit and not in the flesh. Then, we will see abundant fruit manifest.

Grace and Peace upon you in increasing measure.

Scripture meditation: Galatians 5:16-26

 
 

There is spiritual cleansing at the gate. Those in your camp that the Lord has only sent for a season... or those that He has not sent... they will be removed at the gate.

Shut the door to the enemy, and open the Gates so that the King of Glory may come in!

I will report what the Lord has to say at the end of this Fast... in the interim, be blessed.

    Hello! This is Sister Keisha Dawn (K.D.) and I'm emerging out of the "Refiner's Fire" (whew! I'll share some testimonies later), and moving forward spiritually. I, like many others, have been called to be part of the chosen generation to advance the kingdom of God on this earth during these crazy times in our world. One of the places He has placed me is to be a forerunner in higher education. I decided to be obedient to Him for several reasons, one reason being that it's about time that God gets the glory! Let me hear you say "Amen!". Follow my journey and ministry as we move into places of darkness with the power of God to set captives free- in Jesus name!
