Update

What to say - its been a long time!

I seem to have put most of our stuff on the now Glory Release Ministries facebook page so if you want to catch up on anything over the past few months

then thats the place to go.

But perhaps now the times are a changing again, another new season. Is it time to head into a website so that more people can access what the Lord is doing but

will the blog surfice? I am so not up with things and don't want to go into too much depth on the whole computer scene because its not my calling or gifting, rather

the Lord would have me spend my time more on him, his word and releasing what he has given me rather than websites and the like but he has the people to do all that so if you are gifted in this area and want to help - would love to hear from you?! :)

Anyway as you know our heart is and calling is for a "Prophetic Preaching Healing Ministry" and it seems the Lord has us renovating the house 'church" of God but we seem to get the toilets and the bathrooms, the places where there is a need for repentance and cleansing. I have learnt over the past few years that this seems to be an area of the house that is the last to do, the area that needs the work but there are not many who want to do it and yet it seems to be the area that the Lord has given us to do. Like the hidden things sometimes are the most important of the body for the whole body to function correctly. But over the past years I have learnt that actually the churches don't want that call for repentance and cleansing and yet without it the body can't function in fullness and in the plan that God had best designed his body to function it. But I believe that now is the time where the line in the sand is being drawn. I believe that now is the time that you/we need to choose whom this day who we will serve. We are no longer in a time that you can sit on the fence but the Lord is returning for his bride and that unless you are dressed in the appropriate clothes for the wedding feast you will be kicked out of the wedding feast.

So let me encourage, please respond to the quiet small voice of the Lord, and sometimes the loud banging voice of the Lord and what he might be saying to you so that you can come into everything he has for you - do not be like Pharoh where he hardened his heart but keep your heart soft and respond to what he might be saying knowing that he only has good for you and your generations. His desire is that none shall be lost, his desire is for you to know his heart for you, his blessing for you, his freedom for you, his joy for you because everything he made was good and his plans are for good. Sometimes we have to go through the fire to understand this and so we need to give thanks for the fire - to give thanks in all circumstances even when we don't like it but knowing and believing by faith that everything works together for good for those who love the Lord and are called according to his purpose (Rom 8)

With love

The baby's been handed over

Several weeks ago the Lord shifted us out of the 'home office' into the 'market place' and in the process a spiritual shift happened - one of letting the 'baby' go, a releasing and handing over the batten, so to speak to others. In this process the nests that WE ALL have been in have been stirred up, shaken about, and pushed out, to fly in ways that perhaps we were too afraid to do previously. The amazing thing with God is that He knows the timing of all of this and where each one of us is at and what we can handle. Yes there has been a fluttering of wings in panic. Yes, we have had a few weeks of challenge as authority and structures get changed and challenged, frustrations coming to the fore, but love helps us overcome, love helps us to forgive, love helps us to see the good and not the dirt, love helps us remember our own failings and yet forgiveness and grace that the Lord has for me, that I can give to others, remembering it's the glory of G...

The lie of a lack of spiritual fathers and mothers

My ponderings this morning. I believe we have a generation (of which I am a part of) at the moment who believe that there were not the spiritual mothers and fathers who taught them in the things of the spirit; of the way they should go etc. I believe to some extent there is truth, we don’t seem to have seen the ‘spiritual hero’s’ that we want to follow in our daily worlds around us. But I also believe that our generation or those who don’t believe there have been the spiritual parents, actually need to repent for not honouring the ones that the Lord has put in their lives and in which we have not received them as such and honoured what they inputted into our lives. There have always been people around us sowing into our lives, sowing truth, sowing help and hope, but because it has not come the way we expect it, we have not honoured what those people have brought. Sometimes too those people sow into our lives with truth that we don’t want to hear and so we walk away from those ...

Has a giant moved back into your place? Does your bathroom need repainting?

The other day I had a couple of dreams that I believe the Lord is speaking in and they actually are speaking about the same thing. The first one I saw the inside of a bathroom being repainted. The walls, ceilings, everything was being painted and the colour changed. The bathroom is a place of cleansing and by it being repainted I believe that God is wanting us to do some internal work in our lives, things that need changing. The second one was I saw Giants coming from another place and moving into houses and they were like giant trees and they blended into the walls and you couldn't tell they were they as they moulded into the walls but they were there. There was a sense of familiarity about them and so I believe there are some things that have moved back into places that shouldn't be there but because we are familiar with them we don't even notice them. And I know for myself this past week things like 'perfectionism' is something that is familiar with me th...

We are in need - can you help?

Wednesday night worship leaders We are desperate for someone to come on board and head the arena of Worship leading at our gatherings in the arena of Music and songs. If you love Jesus, the Holy Spirit and others, are willing to go where the Holy Spirit is leading, alongside releasing others in their sound, and believe and want to be a part of a massive move of God in this nation then please contact me. If you know someone else who may want to be involved, please pass this onto them.

"And now these three remain: faith. hope and love." 1 Cor 13:13

Two pictures things the Lord has given me over the last 10 days. Firstly; Prior to going to Christchurch I had this vision where I saw this massive tree falling to the ground and taking out people around them as it fell. Then this morning I was reading in Matt 3:10 and it reminded me of that vision I saw. Matt 3:10 says “The ax is already at the root of the trees, and every tree that does not produce good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire.” It’s a powerful word of warning that if we are living supposedly Godly lives and yet are not living lives that produce fruit in keeping with repentance, the fruit of love, joy peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, etc, the fruit of the spirit that is found in Gal 6, then I believe we will see people who are big people to those around them, people who are leaders etc. fall and cause damage. Secondly; Something that startled me yesterday as I was sleeping, I woke up to the sound of a clanging symbol....

Winds of Change

Are you feeling a little unsettled and just wanting and looking for that place of rest and stability where there seemingly are no challenges - for a while at least anyway? I was chatting with the Lord this morning and he said to me, "Sarah, these are just winds of change, and without the wind, it would not blow you to where I want you to be. The wind takes you places you could never go on your own, it propels forward a lot faster if there were no winds, in it I am just wanting you to learn to rest in the boat like Jesus was when the storms arose. Not to be afraid of the storm, not to be afraid of the wind, not to be trying to work everything out, (yet again as seems to be the default, smile emoticon ), but to learn to once again to 'rest' to 'trust' me in this new wind that is blowing you." And as I was praying again about some of the issues I started to laugh as I realised how far, in the smallest things, like simply getting a mothers day present, I...
