Our lives are not filled with random occurrences unfolding by chance. Holy Spirit is actively guiding our paths and intertwining our lives together. Just as the prophet Elijah was sent to provide sustenance for the widow in Zarephath, Holy Spirit orchestrates similar "Elijah" moments in our own lives, either by sending others as provision for us or by empowering us to become an "Elijah" for someone else. As we attune our hearts to Holy Spirit's guidance, we will recognize that these encounters are by His design. He is weaving all things together for us in amazing ways, ultimately to bring the glory of the Kingdom of heaven to this earth.

The resurrection of Jesus is more than just a historical event, confined to a singular moment in time that we celebrate. The power of the resurrection lies not just in what happened that day, but also in the on-going purpose that continues through each us. We are the evidence of His crucifixion and resurrection. Not only is He risen, He is risen within us, with the spirit of resurrection empowering us to live a life that reflects the Risen King and His Kingdom.

We often have expectations of what we think the outcome of our life’s experiences and circumstances should be. As Believers, we're called to not be disheartened when those expectations aren’t met in the way we initially perceived. Instead, we anchor our expectations in the infilling of His presence that overcomes disappointment, doubt, and worry. We lean into His nature, convinced that even when today doesn’t seem glory-filled, we can boldly prophesy into a glory-filled tomorrow. We can declare with confidence that no matter the present outcome, we keep going, trusting that every step will ultimately lead us to hope and victory.

Knowing that God is with us is a simple yet powerful truth. But Holy Spirit is beckoning us to seek out the treasure of something deeper. It's a journey beyond knowing that He is with us, and towards realizing that He is within us. This revelation shifts our perspective entirely, awakening us to a deeper revelation of who He is and who we actually are in this earth.

You are not alone. God Himself, the One who crafted the cosmos and breathed all things into existence, cares about every detail of your life. He is with you, walking alongside in each situation you face, actively working all things together to bring glory and goodness into your life.

The dysfunctional believer lives under the perception of how they think God sees them, always striving to think the right way and have everything perfect, because they believe that’s the key to righteousness. However, the message of the Kingdom is that righteousness is not achieved, but received as a gift transferred to us by our Father in covenantal agreement. He sees us through the lens of Christ's perfect righteousness, which He has graciously imputed to us. The unshakable nature of God's covenant is an agreement that is not dependent on our efforts, but stands firmly as a testament to His unwavering love and commitment to us. 

Glimpses of profound beauty are woven within the tapestry of God's creation as a reflection of His nature, revealing His amazing creativity and artistry. Beauty is also embedded throughout Scripture, stirring our hearts to seek Him, and ultimately, to find Him at the center of it all. The beauty of the natural world harmonizes with beauty found within Scripture, leading us to be convinced of Him and say, "I believe."

It is the day for Believers to rise up in the land and see with the eyes of The Father, not through the lens of our natural eyes, but with His clear, unwavering gaze. This is an invitation to step into a place of confident belief, convinced that we are designed for this hour.

A helpmate is defined as: “One who is fully qualified to make up for anything lacking in another.” In the Bible, Holy Spirit is named as our helpmate. When we are struggling to believe for breakthrough, Holy Spirit actively comes in and makes up for anything lacking within us by interceding on our behalf. We can welcome Him into every corner of our existence, where He will identify even those selected places that we think He can’t reach. By allowing Him total access as our helpmate, we can be convinced that He will shift everything toward the promise of hope and victory.

When believers, rooted deeply in belief and grounded in Holy Spirit's presence within our lives, actively bring faith into every situation, we will be convinced that the Lord is weaving all things together for our good. What we see today is not what we will see one day, because the end is always hope and victory, far better than we can imagine.
