A GREAT SALUTATION
Paul begins his salutation (greeting) to the believers in Ephesus with a greeting of blessing. We read it in Ephesians 1:2 where he said, “Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ.”
What a great way to greet somebody. Instead, we often say something like, “How are you doing,” or “It’s good to see you,” or some other generic salutation.
Paul’s greeting would be a good one to learn and to begin using, or something similar to it.
When someone greets me with “How are you?” I often reply with “I’m blessed and highly favored by the Lord.” This plants a positive gospel greeting in them. Upon parting, I often say, “Be blessed in Jesus name.” It has always been well received by believers and unbelievers alike.
Our words count. Let the words of our salutation, whether coming or going, count for good.
To God alone be the glory.

LIGHTENING THE LOAD
Often in life we carry things that God never told us to carry. We take on tasks and burdens that God has not told us to do. We also carry the weight of sin that hasn’t been released to the Lord. Then there are those that know they should repent but don’t, and the load of rebellion and guilt is upon them.
The storm came up and the Apostle Paul found himself in a situation where he needed to help those he was with lighten the load of a ship that was about to sink. He knew the conditions of the weather, having gone to the sea many times doing missionary journeys. Yet, despite his telling the captain what God had shown him the captain refused to listen.
Paul was in the lower part of the boat fasting and praying because in the natural, all hope was taken away. (Acts 27:20b.) After a long period of fasting and praying, Paul stood in the midst of the men and said in Acts 27:21b-25, “21bSirs, ye should have hearkened unto me, and not have loosed from Crete, and to have gained this harm and loss. 22And now I exhort you to be of good cheer: for there shall be no loss of any man’s life among you, but of the ship. 23For there stood by me this night the angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve, 24saying, ‘Fear not, Paul; thou must be brought before Caesar: and, lo, God hath given thee all them that sail with thee.’ 25 Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer: for I believe God, that it shall be even as it was told me.”
There are times that people won’t listen to good advice, but through your prayers and fasting, the conditions will change. Perhaps someone has talked to you about “lightening the load” and you didn’t listen either. Are there things in your life that will cause your “ship to sink?” If so, maybe this message is a reminder that you need to lighten the load so you and those that are with you will survive the storms that are surely to come.

PROPHETIC WORD
AS GIVEN TO HELEN SANDERS
For this is the hour, this is the hour, saith the Lord for I am opening doors that no man can shut and shutting doors that no man can open. For this is not the hour to be riding the fence. You will see that the doors I am shutting are for your own benefit and good saith the Lord. For I have a plan that is different from the one that you have been on. Oh, you have seen part of it, but I am calling you to me to go with my plan one hundred percent. Do not look to man to unveil what I am about to do for man will fail you. Do not look to your intellect to reason out what I am going to do, for Satan will bombard your mind with many thoughts of deception. Come to me my child and let me remove the hindrances so that you can blossom the way I have intended you to. It has been a dark season, and now I am bringing light into your life so that you will grow more than ever, yet you must allow me to prune those things away that will hold you back. Many have enjoyed this dark time for they have withdrawn into themselves instead of coming to me, the light of their soul, and bringing their very being into the light. Oh, that my children would surrender their will to mine. Oh, that my children would listen to my voice and follow me all the way. Many have gone so far, but I am calling you to total commitment. There will be many dark days ahead, but the light I am shining on your path will keep you safe and secure. There are many things that are coming soon to pass that will bring much fear, but I would say, let me take all fear and doubt away as you come into my presence and spend time to me. Just as a tree must shed its leaves and there is a dormant season, this is the time you have been in and are in. To birth the new leaves, the tree must get rid of the old. Old wineskins would burst when the new wine is put in, so you, also, must be willing to shed the old and let me dress you in the new. This is your hour to go forward and do what I have called you to do. There is no time to contemplate when I call you to myself. There is no time to reason it out. Walk in the spirit, and you will hear my voice. I will show you the way. Come unto me now and be made new. Come unto me now and feel the weight of my glory as it comes upon you. This is so necessary for you, my child. I love you and I am calling to you. Come to me now saith the Lord.

PROPHECTIC EXHORTATION
5-10-2023
In the day we live in like never before…You must be very careful of those you spend your valuable time with. It’s true you should only keep company with those who brings out the BEST in you...Oh, but you need to RUN from those who brings out the STRESS in you. “Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life”. (Prov. 4: 23) “Become wise by walking with the wise; hang out with fools and watch your life fall to pieces”. (Prov. 13:20) Have a blessed day, guard your heart and keep wise company.

The Velvet Touch HCC
The velvet touch of Jesus,
Touches soul and heart and mind.
It touches the homeless man,
It touches man of every kind.
Christ’s reach is felt throughout the World.
He’s the shelter of so many.
Rich or poor, strong, or weak,
His love reaches to the many.
Do you know this, Savior?
The one who died for you.
His blood was spilled at Calvary,
He died, he died for you!
The miracle of all is that he came to life again.
He rose and went to Heaven.
There he waits for you to come to him.
Change your mind, change your heart,
Leave your past behind.
Come to Christ, come, and meet,
Meet the most divine. Your Savior!
