The Written Word



 I used to think it was crazy to whip out a device such as a phone or camera to record a prophecy spoken over me.  I used to think it was not being in the Spirit if you are focused on making sure the word is recorded. But I am so glad Holy Spirit checked me on this.

 Last night as I was working on a project God told me to complete for this year, I had this reminder:
Then the Lord answered me,
“Write the vision.  Make it clear on tablets so that anyone can read it quickly. The vision will still happen at the appointed time.  It hurries toward its goal.  It won't be a lie.  If it's delayed, wait for it.  It will certainly happen. It won't be late."
Habukkuk 2:2-3

The power of the written word.....the power of writing the spoken word (prophecy) over your life. As I was working, God had me go back and look over the word He spoke directly to me: 13 years ago!
This is important for those times of discouragement.
This is important for those times when we lose focus.
This is important for those times of doubt.
This is important for those times of impatience.

When I read over this word, it all made sense.  I had a VERY challenging day Wednesday that spilled some into Thursday. I was on the verge of totally shutting myself down and off. I was silent and vowed to remain that way (total joke because the prophet can't be silenced lol).  Nothing I did could seem to get me back on track.... but last night as I read what God spoke directly to me, something broke in me.

I read it over and over and over and over.....
and over
and over
and over!
Just staring at the words like I never read them or heard them ever.
Just absorbing and envisioning being face to face with God as He spoke every word.
Closing my eyes and allowing the breath of His words to blow me away....to overtake me....but not knock me down!

So I encourage you, next time the Word of the Lord is being spoken over you, make sure you record it.  Who cares if someone looks at you because you are pushing "record" on your phone.  You don't want to miss one morsel of instruction given by God.  And after you record it, write it down!  So that you can SEE what God has spoken over you.

I pray you are blessed and encouraged!


Hugs and Luv

    At Eagle's Nest we record every prophecy and give the CD to the person. Everything you said is such wisdom. Thank you for the reminder.

      That's awesome! There have been a few prophecies I have missed because I didn't want to be shamed for pulling out my phone to record it. But never again. If I see that God is about to impart a word into me, I'll be like "excuse me, I need to record this." And what I've learned it, a true oracle of the Lord will allow that because they understand the power of having prophecy recorded/documented.

Wrestlemania....

This last week I was kind of in a funk…not funky lol but just feeling blah.   I let the cares of my world get to me. I had to fall asleep listening to music because my mind would not slow down long enough for me to fall asleep.   Yesterday evening I found myself sitting in my room in the dark with the door closed….just…didn’t even know what I was thinking…… I got up this morning and said my prayer as I got ready for work….it was a tough morning because Nazir seemed EXTRA cranky. Surprisingly, I didn’t let that get to me. As I drove to work I had Pastor Lloyd Pulley tuned in on my radio.   But I really wasn’t listening.   All of a sudden something hit me…….no not a car thankfully. The Holy Spirit hit me.   He was like “child of God what are you doing?”   He didn’t need to say much more after that.   I was like you right.   I began to encourage myself.   I began to speak against this funk and call it out of me.   I told the enemy he ne...

Not Just visitation.........

By -
So this morning while I was praying....I asked God to never let me leave His presence. I don't just want visitation but i want habitation.  I asked Him how do I do this. He asked me what does Psalm 34:1 say? I said it says: I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth. He said well you know that I inhabit the praises of my people (according to Psalm 22:3). I said yes Lord.  Then He responded live Psalm 34:1. If you continually praise me, I will inhabit your praise.The word continually means without cessation or intermission; unceasingly; always. The word inhabit means to live or dwell in (a place), as people; to exist or be situated within; dwell in.  When we always have a praise of thanks giving for God, He will dwell within us....Many times we complain that we don't feel God's presence. Are you praising Him?  Are you blessing His name?  Praise is not something you do on Sunday morning "when the beat drops". You ...

An Eating Disorder? Really?

By -
So today I was talking to one of my sisters on twitter. She asked me if I know a good recipe for vegetable lasagna. I told her I am the wrong one to ask about any kind of recipe that includes vegetables. We joked and a couple more sisters joined in saying how I much I love sugar cookies, cupcakes, ice cream & sweet tea from the Chinese food place. Then it hit me: that is nothing to brag about.   Those four things contain nothing but sugar.   Where is the sustenance? I joked them and said y’all gonna make me write a blog about this. As I was washing the dishes, God dealt with me on this.   He was like Jenelle you have an eating disorder. *Insert record scratch sound* HOLD UP!!!!! I dropped the dish rag and looked up like “say what!” As I stood there washing the dishes, I scrubbed the plate so hard like I was trying to eliminate what God just told me.   God I HAD two eating disorders: I don’t starve myself on purpose nor do I throw my food up after I eat. So what a...
