Remember This Generation!!

A voice was heard in Ramah, Weeping and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children; And she refused to be comforted, Because they were no more. Matthew 2:18 Where is the Rachel’s who are weeping for our children? We do not weep for we are the ones who have given the order to kill our children. There is no weeping for we are the guilty ones. The children were not taken from us, we ordered them removed. Where are the father’s weeping for our children? We are not weeping for we are the ones who stood by and let our children be killed. The protecting father took no action. We are the guilty ones. Where is the church weeping for her children? We are not weeping, for we have watched and silently stood by while millions upon millions of babies have been taken from this generation. As the Rachel’s have taken the lie of freedom, the lie that abortion will free them from shame, free them from responsibility, free them to live for themselves; the fathers have taken the lie that it was Rachel

God's Healing Ability

About 4 years ago I went to a conference to learn how to pray for healing. It was a wonderful teaching and I had some wonderful spritiual experiences. I learned that as we pray for others that God may give us a word or picture of an ailment that would reveal God is wanting to heal someone of that ailment. After the conference I stayed an extra night before flying home. During that evening I had a intense, impacting dream. I do not remember all it, but I dreamed that I saw a person with a dark covering over their back. The darkness covered their back and about halfway down their arms. As I looked closer I saw the person was covered in what looked like black scales. As I was watching I saw one of the scales move and realized they were dark creatures that was covering the person's back and arms. I woke up feeling the intense awareness of so many creatures that had this person covered. I felt for sure it must be demonic attacks upon this person. All I would have to do is pray fo

Are we heading toward utopia?

I have wondered recently why we have children in our 20-30's, which is a time when we struggle most with our own identity and life issues. Why do our children have to get the brunt of our frustration and struggles? Why are they stuck in our influence at a time when our annoyances and idiosyncrasies are overly pronounced? Is it not at this time in our children's lives that they will take on those influences and struggles? And then do they not carry on the same to pass on to their children? What is the purpose of passing on down the struggles and influences that our parents have passed on to us? Why do we as adults have to wait until our 30-and 40's to come to terms with our life to settle down and define our ideology? (exceptions excluded of course) First of all, if our children did not struggle with our influence, what would they struggle with? Can a generation address self issues at such an early age that it would no longer be passed to the next generation? If thei

Is God not Enough?

Words have not come easy for me lately. Sometimes I think I have opened myself up, searched within, torn away the struggles so much that what is left to say? Even with others, do we not have an ulterior motive when we seek to commune with them? Perhaps I have fought to break through for so long, that existing and abiding in peace is a new thing for me. NO I don't think it is being in " lala"  land, I do abide in the present. However if I know that I can no longer change those around me nor have walls to break through (per say) then what is left to motivate me forward or maybe its inward. It is this exact place that I find myself with God. A couple of prophetic words that were given me a few years ago bring me to this very position: Elise, I want you to know, He has called you to be a worshiper of Him. To seek His face, just to rest in Him and to abide in Him. Not to be afraid of what other people think. Be drawn away, drawn into His presence, in the quietness, in th
