Dear Friends,
Do you want to know the secret to a life of freedom?! It says in John 15:5 TPT “I am the sprouting vine and you’re my branches. As you live in union with me as your source, fruitfulness will stream from within you—but when you live separated from me you are powerless.” When I decide to use my vacuum cleaner it is of no use to me until I take the main plug and plug it into the main source of power, electricity. Then I am able to flip the switch which causes the vacuum cleaner to be used for what it was created to be used for. So it is the same in our personal life spiritually. We need to daily plug into the vine, Jesus Christ, who is the source of our power. As it says, Jesus is the vine and we must remain in him so that we can bear much fruit so we can be used by God more effectively for His Kingdom. Signs and wonders will follow the believer. The bible says in Mark 16:17-18 “And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.” When we don’t stay connected to the vine, Jesus Christ, we will become lukewarm. God does not want that for us. A lukewarm Christian is aimlessly walking in life with no clear direction, accomplishing nothing, just going in circles. In Revelation 3:16 It says “But because you are neither cold nor hot, but lukewarm, I am about to spit you from my mouth.” God wants us to stay connected to him, our true source of power. Let’s agree in prayer for one another that we are filled with the fire of God and walking in the fullness of God's love, found lacking nothing. Thank you for your faithful support and love offerings. Know that as you continue to give, God is a God of His Word! He will create a mighty harvest from the seeds you sow. Because of your seed, we’re able to continue to minister in local churches, inspiring conferences and in our powerful Women Warriors ministry. We are reaching out through missions, saving the lives of children from sex trafficking, helping those who are homeless, counseling and providing education for children in Honduras. Staying connected to the vine. Love, Marilyn
