FAITH HOPE LOVE CROSSHello SUMite Nation, 

Again!!!!!! 

You did it again! This amazing family on the web emailed and left comments for Heidi that will fill her blossom tree. THANK YOU. You wrote words of faith, hope and love. 

THAT is what the family of God looks like. THAT is unity in Christ. You loved on this woman that you didn’t know. She will be forever touched by your kind words of love, prayers and scripture verses of encouragement. 

I adore you! 

As I’m typing I hear the Holy spirit whisper into my heart, “I’m so proud of the SUMite family. This nation, each person, is stronger than they think. They are mighty in deed and power. And their love reaches far past the darkness. THEY are the unlikely world changers. I love them with a fierce love.” -The Lord Almighty 

My friends, Easter is next Sunday. Today, what I want to do is chat about Jesus. Today let’s give a love offering to Jesus. The Son of God. The redeemer of our lives. Who frees us from the demonic, heals our hearts, souls and illnesses. Jesus who gave us the keys to the Kingdom. 

So, today on Palm Sunday. Share your favorite scripture passage, share your heart, testimony about how Jesus has change your life with faith, hope and love. I CAN’T wait to read the comments this week. 

May the Lord bless you and keep you;
May He make His face shine upon you,
And be gracious to you;
May He lift up His countenance upon you,
And give you peace.

See you in the comments. Let’s make this praise-a-thon stir the heavenly host so that they join in. Watch for angels this week!!! Love you so much, Lynn

Jesus prince of peace

    I’ll go first. Everything good EVER in my life is because of Jesus. I was rescued, set free, brought into a family and have a Papa that fills my heart. Jesus is my Bride Groom Prince and I’m headed toward the most amazing wedding of the centuries. I live to spend time Jesus, Papa and Holy Spirit. They are my excitement, my passion, my strength, my fun, my enthusiasm, hope, my faith… They are my love.
    I love you Jesus with all that I know. My whole heart, mind, soul and strength. I pray you are glorified by my humble and thankful live. I heart you!!!

    I grew up in a Christian home, and I am thankful for that. However, in my unequally yoked marriage, and through all of the pain that I have been through, God has shown me that He is not dead. He loves me, my husband, and my marriage. He care about my feelings, desires, and frustrations. And He never answers things the way I think He will, however, He never fails to answer my prayers. He has shown me that this marriage and family is one of my missions and purpose on this earth, and boy, when ,I can’t imagine what will happen..God amazes me! I can’t wait to see how this story rolls out for our marriage!Praise you daddy!Thank you that your son died on the cross for me, my spouse and marriage!

    We SUMites live in a mission field. God has shown me that my marriage is my purpose in life. no matter how much I mess up, His mercies are new every morning, so I get another chance to glorify Him in my life and my marriage. I could not live another day without Jesus. He is my life. Thank you Jesus for what you did for me in the cross. For taking all my failures, all my sin, all my anger, frustrations, failures, bitterness, unwholesome talk, idolatry , pride upon Himself. He overcame death and sin so I can live. “I was crucified with Christ; I died when He died on the cross, so I no longer live for God in the flesh. Now Christ lives within me to give me new life. The Christian life is the outliving of the indwelling Christ. I live by the faith of the Son of God who loves me and gave Himself for me.” Gal 2:20 Thank YOu Jesus!

    It is only because of God that I can get out of bed willingly every morning. Going through the pain of betrayal and divorce by the one person I gave my all to and knows all my secrets is the hardest thing I have ever been through. I see how God has been a part of every step. A friend who wasnt a close friend confided in me that her husband had an affair…she was surprised she told me, she hadn’t even told her closest friends…why did she do it? I was a comfort a safe place for her but little did we know 6 months later I would be coming to her for the same issue…that was only God. There are MANY more stories like this in my life but I notice them more the past 4 years when I rededicated my life to Jesus. God is my everything, I am nothing without him. He is my only source of true comfort.
    I love my essential oils but they are expensive I placed an order but removed a bottle I felt I didnt need. The order came and they messed up….the paperwork was correct but they gave me the bottle I removed from the cart. I called, they will give me my original order and let me keep the bottle they accidentally sent!!! That is God!!!! He showers me with love and even gifts! Im still in awe about it!
    SUMites are a God sent and an answer to prayer. I could go on and deeper about the Lord…He is soooo good! xoxo

    SUMites, I truly feel God in our midst, and that Jesus loves each and every one of us and wants desperately to redeem and restore our marriages and families. I love the verse below:)
    Zephaniah 3:17 The LORD your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing.

    My WORDS are Spirit and they are LIFE! ~ John 6:63
    “OH MY WORD” has always been an expletive of mine nearly my entire life. Many times as I am learning more recently now, God’s answers have always been…
    Under my nose = For we are to God the pleasing aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing. 2 Cor 2:15
    Right before my eyes = He is the Spirit of truth. The world is unable to receive Him because it doesn’t see Him or know Him. But you do know Him, because He remains with you and will be in you. John 14:7
    At my finger tips = “Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” John 13: 34-35
    In my ears = “COME.” Matthew 14:29
    In my mouth = “SPEAK LIFE!” John 6:63
    If God’s Word isn’t “infecting” us or we aren’t experiencing change, our Spiritual senses are still in a cocoon.
    I pray the Power of the Cross is DOMINANT conversation in the Spiritual Realms and the Earthly realms at this TIME. I ask that the WORDS connected to the resurrection, permeate the very air we breathe as Spirit to AWAKEN many throughout the entire Universe causing a greater harvest to RISE UP!
    This is a blessed opportunity we are given at Easter to speak His name and Empower others for such a time as this and for the time that is coming.
    For all You died for I give You Glory, Praise and Honour Lord Jesus. I give You my anything and everything for I just want to be closer to You!
    Humbly, humbly thank You for Your Son Heavenly Father.
    AMEN
    These lyrics in this song helped me know I had to be baptized in the Holy Spirit. May all who listen be blessed with awakening.

    So thankful for people’s talents and gifts that are used for God’s purpose to connect us to Him.

    Amen Pam! Zep 3:17. One of my favs experienced in my studio through Joseph Prince I listened online as I painted. He started singing and I had to stop, put my brush down and ZONE OUT!!!! I felt such an unexplainable peace wash over me in listening to him “sing” that I thought, “What on earth?” A day or two later I came across that scripture and Holy Spirit connected the dots. God using Joseph to sing to me.
    Oh my gosh. Tears well up now just remembering that.
    God is so intimate when we allow Him to be closer.
    THANK YOU for posting His WORD that TOUCHED me today Pam.
    A fresh breath of LIFE flowed through in it.

    He is at work in so many unexplainable ways Deborah. Gifts from heaven! SERIOUSLY? LOVE IT!!!! LOL!!!
    Your story is so AWESOME! Not the hurt but that your focus goes to where you know you will be restored and strengthened. The enemy hates it when our eyes slowly begin leaving what he has before us in our earthly day to concentrate on. I can just SEE him screaming as he jumps frantically up and down and all around us trying to get our attention back down to his level as we turn our eyes to Jesus and begin to RISE UP into our Supernatural home where Power and Authority are OUR’S to use!!
    He hates when we turn into who we know we are. Children of God, Mighty Warriors in His Army!
    AMEN

    Amen Diane!
    “Earth is the Mission field!” In this New Life we have signed the contract with Jesus to go out with Fruit of the SPirit and speak the Words of the Gospel. Words of Spirit and Life that tell of the Power that comes with His name at receiving Him as Saviour.

    He cares…
    He has shown me…
    He never fails to answer…
    He loves me…
    Praising Him with you!!!

    My favorite passage: The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they might have life, and have it abundantly. (John 10:10)
    When God first gave me hope it was like a whole other world opened up.
    When God gave me the gift of faith it took away my agonizing fear of death.
    He transformed my life forever in Texas and has been doing so all over again this lent, breaking chains (esp control) and giving new answers to old problems, and deepening my understanding of humility, love, my husband, and of Him.
    Ad I’ve watched Him do some of these things in my kids as well 🙂

    Oh, the message you gave us, “I’m so proud of the SUMite family. This nation, each person, is stronger than they think. They are mighty in deed and power. And their love reaches far past the darkness. THEY are the unlikely world changers. I love them with a fierce love.” It is breaking my heart into a million glorious pieces because who else knows that when we are suffering, we need to know it’s making a difference for the kingdom? I can imagine we all would readily suffer for His glory! And to know that darkness is being destroyed through it, then I will continue to stand for Him.
    Romans 8: 18-21
    I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. (YAY, GOD!!!!!)
    For the creation waits in eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed. (OUR PRE-BELIEVING SPOUSES, CHILDREN, FAMILY AND FRIENDS!!!)
    For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the freedom and glory of the children of God. (WHERE THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD IS, THERE IS FREEDOM!!)

    This is such a beautiful string of comments!
    There is a lot I could say about what has been a relatively short journey, but, in a nutshell, I am happier and cruisier than I ever was before. He has removed unforgiveness and anger about certain things that happened to me in my family, He has healed me of my crippling hypochondria and fear of death, He has removed my obsessions with materialism, career drive and love of status, and He’s made me love people more. Very cool!
    He also surprises me with little gems, experiences, encounters, and happenings all the time – from the finding of a lost diamond engagement ring just at the moment I committed myself to Him, to a bunch of flowers in my door last Palm Sunday with a King of Clubs card attached after a particularly doubting day. And more….

    My Jesus, You alone are worthy of all my praises. You know me, as no one does and You love me still. You have seen the ugliness in me, my impatience, my pride, my selfishness, my failures, and You love me anyway. I am not worthy of such amazing love, but I am so very thankful for it.
    I pray that everything I do and say will bring honor and glory to You. Take my life, my heart, my very soul. I long to be wholly and completely your servant.I can’t wait for this weekend to celebrate again the power and wonder of Your resurrection! Hosanna to my King! You have saved me! I shout with joy, “He is risen!” Praise Your Holy Name. Alleluia!
