The Bushel - A Personal Psalm

God you have Given me much!

I am rich! Yet my prosperity is not on paper. I'm wealthy but only in gifting, faith, and love.

If only i were a hero, yet my sacrifices are spiritual and unseen!

My faith is abounding yet only still a seed underground not having shown any green.

Who sees this real me?
Who acknowledges my strengths?

Who is witness to my true heart? And no advocate to my flaws.

Who recognizes me & values my Gifts?

Lord if you stand behind me then uncover me.

My strength is in secret, while my weaknesses are in the open for all to see!

My Child...
The world can only see you in your humble place, and the proud will not even recognize you in honor.

But I uncover hidden Glory,
and I reveal beauty in the secret places.

And I release the gifting in the hands, and I am he who unloosens the tongue!

I unlock the power in a word,
and only I can interpret the true wisdom in a proverb.

All of mine will be seen and come to be known when Christ has risen upon them.

This is my gift to the church and it shall not remain hidden.
You will come forth and your seed will bud, and your glory will be seen in the light of day.

Your faith will cash in, and gifts will be multiplied. and my love will be known as you have known my love.

Mat.5.13-15.KJV
Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.

I SAW Four POWERFUL P's being birthed amidst this Prophetic PRESIDENTIAL Election

This week God came into my car urgently and said "Michael, pull out your notes I need you to write an article." He then began to show me that in the midst of injustices that will be OVERTURNED, and in the midst of HIS ANSWER to all of the current events in this season - there are four things that you will be encouraged by that are going to take place within his church in the coming days. Again amidst this Prophetic Presidential hour, there are Four P's being birthed into the church that we will see in our lives in the coming season. The Bible says that humility comes before honor (Prov 18:12) and if it's one thing that's apparently clear... There has definitely been a great deal of humbling among the prophetic and faith camps of the body of Christ upon recent events, and reports. But just as his word states, that humility comes before honor. So shall it be in the coming days! often humility is there to remind us, that even on both sides of our disag...

Becoming Your Gift!

"When are you going to decide to be an artist, and not just someone who occasionally paints?" Is what my wife said to me one evening while annoyed at my attitude towards my vocation at the time. And even though it wasn’t a fun conversation - I understood what she meant, at some point the phrase "decide to become!" jarred me into a place where I could no longer run from myself in that area of my life. I can remember the first time I began to paint as a child sitting in front of the TV on Sunday mornings trying to render the same image Bob Ross was painting on the screen. With burnt umber and greens on a paper pallet as I attempted to create the same pine tree design he seemed to lay out so effortlessly. Even at such a young age I took an interest in art. I didn’t realize that I had a gift till later years when my doodles in class didn’t seem to compare to everyone else's, and my art teachers recognized my talent. Finding your gifting is an amazin...

The Soul Collector

Sounds like a horror movie where a serial killer is out to take souls, or the grim reaper is out to get you. It almost reminds me of the movie final destination where death made its way back around to you to finish the job that was interrupted... and death has come to take your soul! Although this blog is not about a serial killer or the grim reaper, on the contrary today its about Gods process in our lives. That means that God is the soul collector. And he has a process in effect in our lives that is imperative to our development. HES COMING FOR YOU! The bible says to walk out your souls salvation with fear and trembling, that doesnt mean that the grim reaper is after you but it does mean that we need to fear God and the seriousness of his call. The fact that we are saved and our spirits have become brand new (1 cor. 5:17) is only the beginning of our process, there is still a soul that needs renewing, sanctifying and saving. The Bible says that our spirit is the candle of ...
