TAKE DELIGHT IN THE LORD
The Lord loves the adoration, the praise, and the worship of His people. Those who truly take delight in Him and live to please Him are greatly rewarded by Him both in this life (despite hardship) and in the life to come.
Psalm 37:4 says, “Delight thyself in the LORD and He shall give thee the desires of thine heart.” To “take delight” means to be greatly pleased in Him and desire a close and intimate relationship with Him. We would desire to never displease or disappoint Him.
We had a plaque that said, “If it pleases you to please God, then you can do as you please.” The idea in that is that you would only do what pleases Him because you have absolutely no desire to do otherwise. Living to please yourself or other people is not even a consideration.
Psalm 119:1 says, “Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk after the law of the Lord.” The “undefiled” means to us those who are clothed in the righteousness of Christ. “In the way” means those who follow Jesus. The earliest believers (not yet called Christians) were called “followers of the Way” with "way “meaning Jesus, as He had said (I John 14:6) “I am the way…” The “law of the Lord” means walking as the Word teaches us from Jesus’ own words and the instructions in the epistles.
Psalm 1:1-2 says, “Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel (manner) of the ungodly…but his delight is in the law of the Lord.” These passages tell us that we will be blessed for taking our pleasure and delight in God and His ways.
Seek the heart of the Father. Seek the face of Jesus. You will find great delight in Him.

A BIYCLE FOR A QUARTER
It was the summer of 1957. My friend’s dad was a member of the American Legion. I spent a lot of time with this family, and one summer day he was telling us that they were having a raffle at the American Legion. Tickets were selling five for a dollar or 25 cents each. I had gotten a quarter for an allowance and I bought one ticket.
Shortly after I bought this ticket, I was invited to go to a summer bible camp put on by a church other than the one I went to. It was a two-weeks’ long event. Our family could not afford to send me, but someone paid my way. While I was at that camp, at the age of 11, I made a decision for Christ. I received Him as my personal Lord and Savior.. My growth in the Lord came much later but the seeds planted at that bible camp were growing within me.
Later, in the fall of 1957, I was now in the sixth grade. It was about early November. I was in my class when the teacher came to me and told me I had a phone call from my mother. Now, to get a phone call could only mean that something serious had happened. I came to the phone and instead of something sad, she informed me that I had won a bicycle. I was shocked. I had never had my own bicycle, just a tricycle and I had outgrown that years earlier. I couldn’t imagine how I won a bicycle, but it was that 25-cent ticket that I had purchased.
I was told that the prize that was to be awarded was for an adult but when they drew my name, and saw that I was only 11, they decided to buy a bicycle instead. To my great delight, that 25 cents gave me the desires of my heart. That bicycle and I were inseparable. I rode it until it snowed, and then had to wait until the spring of the year to ride it again. It gave me wings.
I believe that after receiving salvation God had this gift in His plan for me. The 25 cents did not produce anything immediately, but it did come. Even the prize that was supposed to be given was changed just for me. God wants to bless his children whether they be 11 years old or 90 years old. I could tell you many stories how God has gifted this “girl”. Some of the stories are incredible. There is no way they could have happened without God.
Some of you have planted seeds, much more than 25 cents, and there has not been any harvest from them. Don’t lose hope. God is still God and has a plan for you just like He did for me. I will never be able to thank Him enough for all that He has done for me. Remember James 1:7 “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.” All good gifts come from God, and the greatest gift I have ever received was the gift I received at 11, and it wasn't the bicycle. It was eternal life. A bicycle is a temporary gift, but the gift of salvation is forever.
Have you received your gift of salvation yet? If not, ask the Lord to come into your life today.

PROPHETIC WORD
Just as the eye of the hurricane gives a false security that all is well and that the storm is over, there is soon to come a transition that will deceive many. There will be a calming from storms, and many will perceive that it is the beginning of things back to normal. But, my children, it is a false peace. The eye of the storm is only a temporary place until the rest of the storm comes. And with that storm there will be much damage and much chaos like the earth has never seen. For I am in the storm to bring cleansing to the land. The land has been polluted with innocent blood and I must cleanse it. Just as in the natural you prepare for the rest of the storm; you must be prepared for what is ahead. It will seem as all is peace and safety, but sudden destruction will come swiftly. I would say that this is the time to enter into the ark of my peace and know that that is the only place that there is true safety from the storm. For as in the days of Noah, I shut him in with myself for the days preceding the wrath that came upon the earth. You must shut yourselves in my children, for in that place, the ark of my safety and the ark of my presence is the only place that true peace comes. I love you and want you to know that these days ahead will be hard for many that do not seek me. There will be cries and terror like you have never seen. So, come aside now, and enter in and be prepared for what is about to take place. The eye of the storm will come first, then the destruction. For those that dwell in me there will be peace saith the Lord.

PROPHETIC EXHORTATION
Someone out there needs to know that regardless of how things are looking in your life...You can be assured that God is still God. Oh yes, your God was, He is and He forever shall be; An on time, all the time, loving, covenant keeping God who will never fail you nor will He ever leave you. Just because you’ve experienced some hurts and a set back due to an unfortunate circumstance; It does not mean that God is through with you...Absolutely NOT. So pick yourself up and get on out there and you get to moving again. Please hear me when I say that it’s past time for you to forgive, forget and then you move on. You can trust God; And don’t you ever forget that He is right there beside you...Loving you, leading you and guiding you through it all. “The Lord’s plans stand firm forever; his intentions can never be shaken.” (Ps. 33:11) “So we can say with confidence, “The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can anyone do to me?” (Heb. 13:6)
