Intentionally Kingdom Cultured
“There are times when I just want to do what I want to do. This does not always happen as God has been given total access to my life. I did not want to venture out last weekend, it was a selfish kind of thing, but You, Holy Spirit, interrupted my selfish and I went on a God adventure orchestrated by You, not because I wanted to, but because You wanted me to. When the flesh gets divinely interrupted then the Spirit of God, He is up to something amazing. So many times, I have said: “I am all yours Jesus, use me” and I wonder if I meant it? Well, the wondering stops when He tests it and takes advantage of the “total access” to my life, that I surrendered to Him. Whenever I do step out in followship of God, my emotions are not always with me, my feelings matter not, my followship is the key. Followship of Jesus, I have found through my life experiences, always ends well, good for me and great for the glory of God’s Kingdom. I can live with that!” KimberlyMac

Power Thoughts Devotional – Joyce Meyer September 19th
For we have the living Word of God, which is full of energy, and it pierces more sharply than a two-edged sword. It will even penetrate to the very core of our being where soul and spirit, bone and marrow meet! It interprets and reveals the true thoughts and secret motives of our hearts. Hebrews 4:12 The Passion Translation
Hebrews 4:12 The Aramaic can be translated “all effective.” There is a hint here of the spinning sword of fire, held by the angel guarding the way to the Tree of Life. To come eat its fruit, you must pass through the mighty sword of fire. The context implies we pass through this “fire-sword” on our way into the holy of holies. When the veil was split in two, the cherubim embroidered on the veil parted, as it were, to allow every worshiper to enter into the unveiled presence of God. See Gen. 3:24; Matt. 27:51. Footnotes TPT
Hebrews 4:12 Or “than a two-mouthed sword.” God speaks his word, then we, in agreement, also speak his word and it becomes a two-mouthed sword. As translated from the Aramaic, the Greek is “joint.” Soul and spirit are the immaterial parts of every person that make us who we are, joint and bone marrow are the physical aspects of our existence. All of this combined forms our humanity. God’s Word has the ability to uncover our hidden aspects and make them known. Foot Note TPT
2 Corinthians 10:4-5 For although we live in the natural realm, we don’t wage a military campaign employing human weapons, using manipulation to achieve our aims. Instead, our spiritual weapons are energized with divine power to effectively dismantle the defenses behind which people hide. We can demolish every deceptive fantasy that opposes God and break through every arrogant attitude that is raised up in defiance of the true knowledge of God. We capture, like prisoners of war, every thought and insist that it bow in obedience to the Anointed One.
2 Corinthians 10:3 Or “strongholds.” The Aramaic word for strongholds can also be translated “rebellious castles.” Paul seems to be referring to demonic strongholds or centers of opposition to the light of the gospel. FootNotes TPT
2 Corinthians 10:5 Or “citadels of argumentations,” which include fantasies. Footnotes TPT
2 Corinthians 10:5 Or “every scheme.” Paul is using the concept of taking prisoners of war, but in this case the prisoners held captive are faulty patterns of thought that defy God’s authority. The Passion Translation Footnotes
My Thoughts:
Intentionally Kingdom Cultured: Today I will hold captive defective patterns of thought that defy God’s authority of truth in me and His Rule of Love over me and through me. #TwoEdgedSword
My Thoughts: Faulty thought patterns for me are assumptions – speculations – what if – theories. I know this year is the year I become intentionally kingdom cultured in my thinking. I must say absolutely NO to these kind of thought patterns and replace them with the truth of God’s Word. In the past, the enemy has battered me with assumptive thinking. God says in 2020, no more! I must be Intentionally Kingdom Cultured by the Word of God. God speaks, I listen, I speak, I act on and like what God says. I am therefore Intentionally Kingdom Cultured by God’s Word instead of my worldly viewpoint and it’s say so. Being Intentionally Kingdom Cultured is to arm myself with the Word of God, activate my faith and release the Word by intercessory prayer, confessing the Word, praying the Word and letting it shape my inner spiritual core, so I am in the process of becoming God’s Servant Warrior.
When we speak the Word of God out of our mouths, it becomes a two-edged sword – defeating the enemy with one edge and opening the blessings of heaven with the other. There are many other defensive weapons protecting us from attack, but the Word is offensive-it defeats the enemy. Joyce Meyer

Isaiah 6:8-9 The Passion Translation Then I heard the Lord saying, “Whom should I send to my people? Who will go to represent us?” I spoke up and said, “I will be the one. Send me.” Isaiah’s Message Then he said, “Go and tell the people: ‘You keep listening but understand nothing. You keep watching but learn nothing.

Post By Donnis Steele Today’s prayer
“Do you not know that I must be about My Father’s business?” Luke 2:49
“Father God, You knitted us in our mother’s womb. You created us in Your Image. You called us into Your purpose. We are not our own because You bought us with a price. In You we live and move and have our being. For we are indeed Your offspring. Everywhere we go, everything we do, is to be about doing Your business. Every task, every trial, every circumstance…, all is about doing Your will. Our purpose is to be an extension of Your Nature throughout our whole life, doing Your business of proclaiming Your message to the world. Amen!” Donnis Steele
My Thoughts:
Yes, love this…. love being so… In Him We Live-Move And Have Our Being… We are always “becoming” as we stay close to His heart. We are underneath the RULERSHIP of His Love. That is so good for us, because we get to work out our lives as He loves us so well in that unconditional way, we have the room to “grow through” this life, by the power of God’s Holy Spirit, who is the best navigator ever….

“We, just like the Israelites, can be tempted to look back on what we were delivered from and long, even for a brief moment, for what is was like back then, for the “fun” times, for the times when we were able to “enjoy” ours sin with no immediate consequences, for a time when things seemed “easier”. Have you gone down this thought path before? Maybe looked back on a destructive relationship with someone and remembered the “good moments.” Jesus warns in Luke17:32 “Remember Lot’s wife!” https://discerning-dad.com/2020/01/02/tbt-what-is-your-egypt/
My Thoughts:
We can get stuck with a “hindsight mentality” when we look back without the Lord’s navigation and purpose. Sometimes, He does purposefully give us “heavenly hindsight” for a time such as this, to remind us, to help us remember something He has previously taught us. Other than that, if we are constantly looking back in the rear-view mirror, we will crash…Kimberlymac
I love sharing from my personal journal. It is a mess that is always a message as God navigates my growth from day to day and I give Him total access to my life processes, so He can write my life-story. My Constant Conversation with God is a meal full of fun spiritual food. Enjoy this meal on the Miraculous Musing Table. Share it with others. Thanks! I have written a book called: The Bridegroom’s Voice it is a great way to “Journey With Jesus” to a constant conversation of your own, heart to heart with God. God bless you, KimberlyMac
