GRAB A CUP OF COFFEE OR A GLASS “NEW” WINE

Preface
This little book is about the Testimonies that I have had the pleasure of living throughout these 62 years of my life.
The word of God says:
“And they overcame him by the blood of the lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.
Revelation 12:11
The Holy Bible
New King James Version


I take this verse very seriously, as it has led me to many victories. I have learned to decree and declare it over my life. I have become an overcomer, and am always growing and healing and learning how to live as an overcomer.
It has been difficult, at times, as people (especially in the body of Christ) see you going through something, whatever it may be, tragic or not and they immediately think you did something wrong, God doesn't love you, you are a bad person, or whatever they may come up with.
I know...because I used to be one of those people.
Yes, we are all guilty of carnal thinking, myself included. But God, has been gracious to me spanked me with His big fat frying pan in the Heavenly kitchen up there, and knocked some sense into my stubborn head. “Judge not.” He would say to me...stubborn little rascal that I was. I wouldn't listen so He knocked me out cold at times.
I know some think God would not do that what kind of God does she serve? Well, the same God you do, the one that Disciplines those that He loves. Thank God He loves me, and He loves me a lot!
But..
With His helping hand, I got up, dusted myself off and kept going WITH HIM leading the way.
Safer!
Writing this book has been a wonderful experience as I continue to grow in the Lord, becoming healthy, forgiving easier, which has lead me to be happier. This happiness, I must explain, is not the kind of happiness that comes because everything is going TRIUMPHANTLY in my life.
It is the happiness that abides in, and built on, the Joy of the Lord kind of happiness.
I have been adopted and grafted into the True Vine, the Kingdom of God culture of Righteousness, Peace and Joy in the Holy Ghost. I understand it and am grateful that God has chosen me for whatever it is He has chosen me for. I am happy, glad and grateful that I have reached to that place, in my life, where I can say that truthfully.
He trusts me now with the dreams I have had for years. The purging and pruning process to have me established in Him was long, winding, and, at times, for me, brutal. But it was necessary to have me at the place where I could become established in Him.
I remember I received a prophetic word about a dream I have had since I was four years old. The dream started off well, but then, it died. I became so entrenched with the Lord I forgot about the dream and just FELL deeply and madly in love with Jesus...as the desires of this world began to fade away as I grew more deeply in love with Him.
When the prophetic word was spoken over me, I almost rejected it and spit it out because I was not really interested in it any more. This dream was “HUGE”. For me to have forgotten it was just simply ludicrous, but I did forget about it. The Holy Ghost said “no, don't dismiss it, the dream came from me, now I can trust you”
and ...
now Jesus...
I trust you!
