It’s over for another year?

As I sink into the quiet from Thanksgiving 2016, I let my mind wander in the direction it led me without my commands to think about anything in particular while I allowed it to view the condition and state of my “heart’s eye”.

This year’s Thanksgiving I saw almost all my adult Cherubs sitting at our table. It’s a wonderful thing for parents to see their children grown and making their way after many years of emotionally spoiling them and being a spiritual coach. While leading them into adulthood my husband and I found it a blessing to; demonstrate responsibility for the basics around the home, giving them our wisdom for the sake of their development of “Life Skills”, showing them our hearts toward the hurting, our humble gratitude, being a selfless person, hard worker, when we were happy/sad along with the lessons it might have involved, forgiving, willingness to pray for/with someone regardless of who or perhaps what they have done, loving unconditionally, longing for someone to crave salvation. In short, it was a joy raising children and giving them our wisdom and for them to know how to be a Hero for the LORD. Make no mistake, being a parent means you raise them in a certain fashion and it’s up to them to carry the torch; some will be grateful and some will swear it was a negative experience however, if you follow the Voice and Will of the LORD, HE will be pleased and that’s when you know it was wonderful in the truest sense. I was notorious for saying to everyone that my undying prayer was for me to be the Mother GOD (not them) wanted me to be.

However, the journey into the recesses of my mind today reveals my heart is aching. I have been observing the people that randomly are on social media asking for free items or stating how they don’t have  or they’re utilizing the expression “I can’t catch a break”. But then, I look at the people that haven’t very much at all simultaneously refusing to take a single bit of help and yet they had a wonderful Thanksgiving because they went through the holiday with the joy of the LORD and their hearts are full of “gladness and thanksgiving”.

My mind and heart’s eye purposed the fact that there are Heroes within my midst. True Warriors for our LORD. This morning I read and studied for the teaching I soon have to give to a crowd of “inhalers”, a term I joyfully/lovingly coined to label people that come to hear you preach/teach the HOLINESS and RICHNESS of Our ABBA FATHER. This is one of the Scriptures I’m using while being a guest speaker and I come to you today in love  focusing on it:

John 14:26-27 AMP~ 26 But the Helper (Comforter, Advocate, Intercessor—Counselor, Strengthener, Standby), the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name [in My place, to represent Me and act on My behalf], He will teach you all things. And He will help you remember everything that I have told you. 27 Peace I leave with you; My [perfect] peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be afraid. [Let My perfect peace calm you in every circumstance and give you courage and strength for every challenge.]

True Heroes within my midst~

I ask you this, have you ever experienced someone who “wants” continuously? It’s never ending, their story is the same for years, *there isn’t a period at the ending of their sentence so to speak. You can go without seeing them or being around them for years and once you’ve returned to the realm of their personalized whirlwind it is the same as always. They’re needy, yes, I said it…very needy with the expectations that you have something to give and they want it. It hasn’t changed from the past and it never will.

However, you will know others  who have nothing and they are giving beyond belief without a negative tone or verbiage; giving their heart, their help, their love,  you get my point.

What’s the difference between the two?

The Hero is the one who has knowledge that wanting is selfish and that goading anyone into giving is theft. They know the joy and comfort of the HOLY SPIRIT is the missing puzzle piece to make life here on earth worth living and most gratifying. They once searched for the TRUE GIFT that “keeps on giving”,  and that my friends would be JESUS the KING OF ALL KINGS, RULER OF ALL THE WORLD, THE ONE TRUE LIVING GOD and *they have a period at the end of their sentence. The search for a gift is over, they have it!!! They NEVER sought a “hand-out” but instead they received from the HAND OF GOD giving them the best GIFT of all and that’s JESUS. Is that it? No, there’s more!

When JESUS ascended into Heaven HE left GOD’S HOLY SPIRIT for us, WOW!!! That’s multiple gifts given to us my friends, first we have the gift of JESUS agreeing to come as hope for the lost, then HIS teachings during HIS short-termed ministry, agreeing to the horrible act of taking on sin at the crucifixion, forgiving us through Salvation, and leaving the HOLY SPIRIT here on earth as a gift to those who want counseling, power, wisdom, strength, courage, revival deep within and more! GOOD GRIEF, no wonder these people I spoke of earlier are Heroes, they want for nothing because they have everything!  

I can only pray that you hunger to be a Hero, the rest is up to you.

Love to All~

LORD, arouse me to never give up on unsaved souls!

Footnote * (metaphor usage) Someone’s life remaining the same at a low point without an end due to self inflicted negative actions, thoughts or character. (jam)

Who’s driving?

I am starting my entry by saying that I’m grateful the election is over!

Am I grateful because of the ads will no longer plague the airwaves? No. Am I grateful to see my choice of candidate win? No again.(I am but, this is not my point)

I am so grateful the election is done because of the excitement over GOD proving HE’S on the move. HIS Mighty Move has been seen and witnessed by even the non-believers. The mockers are now placed in the midst of HIS outward plan, the nay-sayers are twice as infuriated as ever before. Satan is mad and has unleashed his demons and yet, it won’t work.

This is exciting, this my friends is the beginning of a “New World Order”; yes, you read right. GOD’S NEW WORLD WITH ORDER.

HE is cleaning house and we will see the demons flee, and will witness them in a self-destruct mode. This is the beginning of our time, time to remain: humble, prayerful, firm, strong, courageous, wiser than the serpent, and patient with GOD ALMIGHTY. HE IS ON THE MOVE…as I have preached for years- “Stand back and let GOD be GOD!

Now, as I’ve been telling the churches for many years, you don’t mess with and stifle the saints nor the Angels of the LORD. We now have a new anointing, we’ve been raised up and GOD warns that who attempts to dishonor us, shut our mouths, ridicule our warnings, and call an army of fools against us will be removed publicly and shamed.

I have witnessed GODLY REPERCUSSIONS after I have warned people who have attempted to stifle and/or mock me after giving a word. I have seen sickness come to them, confusion, weariness, divorce, loss of employment and so on.

THE LORD SAYS, BEWARE AND IS NOT IN THE “QUIET” MODE ANYMORE. 

I have been given words from the LORD since I was in elementary school, I used to give the words to who the LORD specifically advised me to. Some heeded the cry of GOD and some mocked. I started getting discouraged and then the LORD said to me when I was about 12 years old, “See where my words go, watch the truth manifest before your eyes and then see what they do with it. You will know who I hear crying out to ME with bended knee and you will see who is a parasite.” Then HE gave me the word “Wormwood”!

“Parasites” are UNWELCOMED GUESTS.  But “Wormwood”?

My Mom had a Bible encyclopedia/ Strongs back then and yes, being 64 years old there wasn’t Google. So I was thrilled to look this up with the tools GOD provided, I found that it wasn’t a good thing. In Revelation 8, it explains that “Wormwood” is the star that turns a third of the water bitter in the “end times” which will cause many deaths. GOD was showing me my word will be sown to some with deaf ears and haughty spirits who will drink the spoiled nourishment and parish. In short, as they laugh and mock me they will drink the Kool-Aid. I was grieved, but I carried on being a young teen giving WORDS FROM THE LORD and praying for who GOD selected me to do so.

You see brethren, as I am closing for today I’m reminding you that I told many words publicly about how GOD told me the words “Such a time like this” as well as more. HE also has told me (and I have) to warn you about this evil spirit of Haman. I also was told to post as a status on Face Book about a week ago as a final warning to you “Haman, what will you do?”. That my friends speaks volumes to the LORD having the rights for your destiny.

Love to All~

I’m so sorry

First off, I want to apologize to Sarah, Christopher, Maegen, Rachel and Hannah. As well, Isaiah, Athena, Faith, James and Jeremiah.

I need to be very clear to my Children/Cherubs and their Cherubs that I never meant to contribute to the awful state this world is in instead, my contributions were for GOD’S GLORY AND HONOR.

I sounded the alarm over things, I spoke when even standing alone because I was rebuked. I worked endlessly on making things righteous even when I was ejected from places. I stood tall and firm when representing justice even when they knocked me down. When I was mocked and if you heard only the echos from it, whether at school, community or other places; I knew I acted with honor. I allowed only GOD ALMIGHTY to raise me up as “weak onlookers” shouted behind closed doors for me to retaliate. I’ve posted while simultaneously have been criticized from “Bunny Foo-Foo” “Scared Luke Warm” christians (lower case “c” intentionally added); who at all cost focus on sustaining  their entourage and or followers. I have endured wives outwardly refusing to be my Face Book “friend” but regularly log on  in their husband’s account to have access to me only to gossip about my diligence as I sound the alarm for THE HOLY SPIRIT as HE instructs me to do. And for that I refuse to apologize!   

Yes, the world is in total chaos, and perhaps I could have done more. Perhaps I could have sounded more alarms for my generations. Perhaps… But, I’m NOT done, so we shall see!

I go through my sixth decade with questions from people; is this chaos meant from the LORD? That answer can only be a resounding yes! I believe it is; we never humbled ourselves, we with haughty spirits went from 0 to 60 with our judgement of others to have friends, shining the light on ourselves as we have publicly rebuked others; while only creating a “deceiving spirit” within ourselves.As a result our 60 equates panic “as in what do we do?” “How do we turn our country around?” “Is there and hope for us?”.

I love hearing people say, “something has to be done” or “I had no idea”. Just remember the next time you attempt to muzzle a CHRISTian for speaking truth and acting upon their integrity that will develop and create a stronger fight for the enemy’s advantage whether in this world or spiritually. If you close the ears and minds of your “following”  by rebuking truth to your “community entourage” you have brought a judgement into your home and on to your generations. As I have often said, “ Kyrie eleison“.

Yes I’m sorry, for not being louder as Isaiah 58:1 clearly states. I will vote and when I do I will find comfort in where I stand with GOD ALMIGHTY and how I have never been ashamed of speaking against killing/murdering babies (our generations), unjust expenditures, people dying that cannot pay penalties for a forced medical sham, kids not having hope, no jobs/corporations leaving our land, false reports, rumors of war and the list goes on.

Yes, I’m loud and opinionated…and GOD LOVES ME FOR IT, and I’ll have MANY jewels in my 5 crowns and I’m grateful that GOD has made me a Warrior.

Side note: My Dad named me Judith and one day I asked him why he chose my name; my Dad proceeded to explain that Judith in the Bible was a true Warrior, a Heroine, and that he admired her. Years later my Dad spoke to me about something I had done in a certain  community. He pointed out how I had ruffled feathers in a righteous fashion while exposing something that was harming people and it made him proud. I chuckled as I said, “it’s in the name Dad”.

Hang on to Love – NOT Them​

Hang on to Love – NOT Them

The post you’re about to read stems from my dear friend saying to me: “How can you stand it now that Hannah’s gone to school?” I clearly replied, “I CAN’T”!!!

The LORD showed me I CAN, along with giving me clarity in my heart, mind, body and soul. My heart is NOT as broken as I thought and now my heart rejoices for HE (Our LORD) showed me years’ worth of joy in me loving from the depths of my heart. I have that dear friend to thank, she was a loving precursor to a very clear meaning to having pure love in my heart.

At times you will hear someone say, “they left without a trace”.

I can’t say that. I simply can’t say that any of my Children left without a trace!

There’s many traces left on my heart, mind and emotions as if they were fingerprints left by genuine love. Traces and fingerprints from loving babies, children, pre-teens, teens, young adults and yes adults; which as a end result generates a love for life.

To me the cries of a baby is “music of love” put into breathing and living through the heart of a child; when I heard the cries of my babies I always wondered what they were saying, oh sure we basically know as parents what is needed but to think that in their own language they’re talking! It may be inarticulate sounds, but when a baby cries to you it’s because they feel safe and loved by you. That is a trace of the love I gave to them and in return they left their heart’s fingerprints on my heart.

I live in a five bedroom home, my children, my husband and I filled that home with the help of other people’s children who needed a place to stay. I loved the noise, it left many everlasting traces. I loved the laughter, oh how that’ll leave traces and fingerprints on your heart. I lived for my Cherubs/Children to say or show signs and signals of “I love you”, my heart sang from it each time they deposited their heart’s fingerprints within the deepest depth of my heart. Having my family was my goal, my air that enabled me to breathe, to function and yes to give me the spirited vigor to take one more step and breathe one more breath.

Love Heals

I remember the time when I had something traumatic happen in my life and while getting ready for work my eldest who at the time was 2 or 3 years of age, noticed the tears flowing down my face as I was attempting to apply my makeup. She walked over to me gently rubbing my arm reassuring me how everything will be alright simultaneously expressing her love for me. I asked, “Baby, are you rubbing Mommy?” It made my heart leap forward into a state of reassurance and confidence for facing the rough time I had been experiencing. My heart rejoiced from the revelation I witnessed, because I knew from that moment on how “healing” love can be in any crisis.

Baby-Rubbings

From that moment on I had coined the expression “baby-rubbings” for my family; for us to give each other who might be crying, under stress, feeling down, hurt or just simply giving a loving jester. I always taught my Cherubs or anyone else’s children who passed through my life that leaving loving fingerprints on someone’s heart is everlasting.

We gave Baby-Rubbings on the shoulder or arm; the shoulder and arm are related to pain indicating a signal that one’s heart is under attack. I saw my broken and hurting heart heal with the original “Baby-Rubbings” so I knew it was the LORD showing me the very place it was meant for a healing which would lead to putting fingerprints and traces on a heart.

Traces and or fingerprints

Traces and fingerprints are markings that survive everything, be sure of that.

When you love, it leaves traces and fingerprints that at times “one” has to dig to find them. They can definitely have soil on them, i.e. hurt, hate, anger, I’m sure you understand what I mean.

Have you ever watched a crime show? They have to dust the fingerprints to clean and create clarity. At times, we’ll find that the original state of love given to us can be soiled and or ruined, leaving it lacking cleanliness (purity), and or clarity, making it unidentifiable from it’s original state. If it’s handled properly, it can be cleaned, dusted off to give it life and clarity again with total restoration.

Try to cover a bloomed flower with soil. That richly colored bloom along with its distinctly colored green stem will soon suffocate from the soil and lack of air only to lose its vibrancy in both color and life. If you uncover it, clean it off it will restore itself to blossom and live on. Quite the metaphor for the truth found in love!

I see traces and I feel fingerprints!

So now we have an empty home, not a house, a home. I see traces of “pure love” from having my Cherubs, it’s in every nook and cranny. I can remember through the “eyes of my heart” and the Grace of GOD ALMIGHTY many years of giving deep love and yes Baby-Rubbings to my family that will leave a lifetime of fingerprints on their hearts along with many wonderful traces in their life.

Their gone to live their lives

Yup, they’re gone! All 5!!!
But, I hope you realize the most important thing; LOVE LIVES FOREVER.

And I praise GOD IN THE HIGHEST for that, GOD HIMSELF felt grief when separated from HIS SON, but HE gave us that “purified-cleaned up” love through the crucifixion on the Cross at Calvary, (or if you will, Golgotha). The LOVE that beams from GOD is so unconditional, fulfilling and everlasting that it IS a true gift. And within this gift you’ll find triggers that show each of us traces of a powerful definition of love and the reassurance of HIS Fingerprints on our hearts for healing, rejuvenation, clarity and hope. And for that I’m grateful

Love to All~

Stair #4

stairs
Every time I want something to go upstairs I put it on the stairs such as, bathroom tissue for the upstairs bathroom, clean clothes that belong to anyone living in the home with a bedroom upstairs. You get my point I’m sure.

Each time someone is going to go upstairs the rule is/was you take the items upstairs with you and put it away. This has been a rule for over 42 years in my homes to where it is simply an act of consideration that should come natural. I always prayed over these stairs that no harm would come to my babies/Cherubs or anyone using them. I always asked GOD to command an Army of Angels to guard the footsteps that traveled “to and fro” on these stairs as long the house would exist.

When Hannah left to go to Atlanta Dream Center, I would catch myself putting things on the stairs as if she were still going to come home and carry the items up the stairs as she went off to her room or the upstairs t.v. room.

These stairs have a history of my 5 children (my Cherubs) through the years sitting on them and talking with me as I continued my work in the kitchen. I have the blessing of the stairs being right at the opening of the kitchen to enable me to catch up on the latest with the kids as they would roost on stair #4. Whether good or bad I listened, there were many tears of both laughter and sorrow. Many pieces of info that were meant for my ears and many that were meant for my heart.

My spirit-man rejoiced in the thousands of times I shared with my Children/Cherubs roosting on “stair #4” that I was certain I would never regret a single moment of me endlessly encouraging them by giving them words of hope filled with light from the power given to me by THE HOLY SPIRIT to enable them to grasp the destiny given to them through design by GOD Our FATHER. As they sat on “stair #4” they ALL heard me say they were meant to be conquerors of not only their future but the fears of the unknown.

A couple of weeks ago I put some bathroom tissue on the stairs without thinking that Hannah had left for school. She is not going to be waltzing into the house working her way to the stairs; she won’t be going to stair #4 to pour into me the day she had as I finished a kitchen task. She’s gone, I forgot that she was gone.It hit me as if GOD had grabbed my lungs and squeezed every ounce of air out of them in order for me to feel my heart pound to the beat of “life’s alarm” alerting me of reality. I was stupefied, speechless and empty! Hannah had joined all of the rest of my children, she grew up! Oy!

But, for 2 days GOD kept talking to me, no let’s be real; GOD was pestering me. HE insisted that I research on the internet the word “stairs” and the number “4”. As I  researched both HE gave me the information for the remainder of this blog.

HE first gave me the quote for the word “stairs”


“The vision must be followed by the venture. It is not enough to stare up the steps – we must step up the stairs.” — Vance Havner

 

Then I thought, who is this brilliant Vance Havner? As I’m wondering GOD said, “Find him, find Vance” and as I dug deep to see what the LORD needed me to see, I discovered Vance was a great man of GOD! Vance spoke to people in the same light as I have; truth, no frills, without fear of who would disregard him, he firmly spoke the words GOD gave him.

Even our great brother Billy Graham was mentioned giving a quote on Vance’s behalf, “I do not know of any man in my generation who has stirred revival fires in the hearts of so many people throughout the nation as has Vance Havner…”.

GOOD GRAVY!!! No wonder GOD had me search for this information, his story is phenomenal! He even went into the same places as I do hearing from the LORD, (I’m in the middle of my woods hearing from HIM often or down at my pond), I could not believe this gold mine I stumbled across!!! He was a true pioneer for the Gospel in every sense of the word; going where he knew it would be unchartered territory. Hence his quote that proved to me it was a personal golden nugget; it rang into my very soul echoing through my very being. The stairs, yes the stairs…one must step up the stairs for the journey that might be tough but yet it is by GOD’S Design.

The number 4

The Number 4 is thought to represent Gods absolute control over the world by HIS OWN DESIGN.

4 Directions on the earth that were named by GOD, (north, south, east, and west). Which are the 4 “cardinal points”.

4 Seasons created by GOD, (summer, autumn, winter, and spring).

4 Things that make up GOD’S Universe, (time, energy, space, and matter).

4 Major provisions for man (earth, air, fire, and water).

4 seems to represent “cosmic order”, as in the 4 phases of the moon

The 4 rivers of Paradise (Genesis 2:10) (This river divides into 4 rivers that irrigates as it passes through, which means life is given)

The 4 winds of Heaven (Jeremiah 49:36) (WHICH MEANS ALL OF HEAVEN)

The 4 Guardians of the THRONE OF GOD, meaning would be 4 Cherubim with all seeing eyes that miss NOTHING!

4 Divisions of the day (morning, noon, evening, and midnight).

Look at this! I asked GOD to command HIS Angels to guard my stairs concerning my babies and all these years later HE showed me this through “stair #4”. I encouraged my children to allow GOD to walk them through the journey of their unknown that was GOD’S Design for them.

“GOD is never done with us, the seasons pass only for us to find another portion that GOD has designed for us, it is the unknown but it’s always good when it has GOD’S Signature on it.” Judi Mac Quote

*** I challenge you today to “Go Up The Stairs”! ***

Watching her walk away

dorm

Many of you know we delivered our daughter Hannah to Atlanta Dream Center to attend school for obtaining her education in ministry. My story will take you into many levels of witnessing the joys that come with difficulties as one follows the straight and narrow that leads to the THRONE through the blood of the lamb as a Mother, Mom, and yes a Mommy.

As we hugged goodbye and sobbed I knew it was right; my husband, Hannah and I were in the parking lot to her dorm. Through the tears I asked her if she wanted me to walk her up to her room to ease her pain, her reply was “no” along with responding, “I need to get used to it”. My heart broke and sank but I had a total peace simultaneously that generated a “GOD given” understanding.

Driving many miles from Michigan to Atlanta you’ll see GOD’S Beauty, HIS magnificence is mind-boggling with the mountains and layers of rock complied along the highway where man shaved his way to travel across the land to enable him to seek, know, relate to, have relationships, and so on with other human beings. Disregarding hardships, rebuking obstacles, hard work and being relentless only to get to the other side. The true depth of Christianity; for as you know it doesn’t come easy but yet the beauty and magnificence is reachable.

rock-mount

On the way down I was with a 18-year-old ready to inhale what GOD had for her on the other side of the mountains and yet, the day we said goodbye was the day I saw my child overwhelmed from all the anointing and the unknown colliding in her world. As a “Christian Mom” I knew it was the beginning of me feeling lost, empty, within my praises to HIM; I’m still a Mommy and she’s my Cherub. GOD kept on saying, “I know, I really know those tears”, it was so clear deep within my spirit-man. Oh how HIS heart must have broken over losing HIS SON in the name of ministry. And yes, the reachable other side was full of beauty and magnificence. And for that I praise HIM. Love to All~
