WALKING THROUGH JUDAH INTO THE COURTS OF THE LORD


Photo Provided by Kay Rowe


On August 16th I posted on my Facebook page,
"Come walk through the streets of Judah
into the courts of praise."  Not understanding 
fully what that meant.  The Lord decided
to give this ministry the full open view 
of what those words meant.  I can tell you 
now, we had a front row seat to the 
greatest symphony I've ever seen. 

As the doors began to open in every direction
and the light of Jesus Christ began to shine 
through, those words came to me once
again,  This time I thought I might want
to study them out.  In that study
I found that the streets of Judah is 
what the Israelite's or anyone wanting
to go into the Holy of Holies had to 
walk through to enter into the Courts
of the Lord.  You couldn't go through
a side door, you couldn't get there from 
the back.  You physically had to walk 
through the streets of Judah in order 
to enter into the Holy of Holies. 

Judah, means praise.  So although we
don't live in the wilderness and have
tents set up and the Holy of Holies set 
up in the desert, we still are able see the
beautiful picture of why the Lord had
such a layout for the children of Israel.  

We do find ourselves in the dessert and
dry lands in our present lives and
the same is true for us.  

We must walk through Judah to enter 
into the courts of the Lord! 

Now, I must say that over the last two months of 
this journey I have ran across some people about 
to burst with excitement for the ministry as it unfolds,
but I must say I have also ran across the opposite.
 No, they were not the lost world or demonic groups, 
there have been some born again believers that have
tried to smash defeat all over me.  Some say, do 
you really think this was exactly how it happened 
or don't you think that's a little overstatement.  

I have faced this question and will give the answer.
  
Why are you looking at things the way you do?  

Let me give you an example that you have 
probably already heard.  If there is a glass of 
water setting on the table and filled 
exactly to the middle, you will have people say
the glass is half full and others say the
glass is half empty. The reason for this is some
people will always look at the negative
side of things while another person will always
look at the positive side of things.  

So when we are walking side by side at work,
at church, on the streets, or even sitting
here at home doing ministry on the computer,
be aware that we can see the
exact same moving of God's power
and even though I see it as being over-flowing,
some other person will see the negative side of it.
They will see the dirt all around or the bad
attitude someone has instead of seeing how
God is moving. 

As our worship team has moved into praise
(the streets of Judah) recently, we have seen a
few weep with the power of the presence of the 
Holy Spirit or raise their hands, while at the
same time we have seen people checking their phone
to see what time it is or who is texting them. 

I can tell you now that the ones walking through
the streets of Judah, (Praise)  will enter 
into the courts of the Lord and get to see 
his glory and the ones texting, 
chatting or being impatient will become frustrated
and angry because they are not seeing what you 
are seeing and honestly don't even believe you
are seeing anything.  They will throw out 
negative comments and wonder why, if you are 
getting to see glory of God they are not getting to. 

We have all been invited to walk through the
streets of Judah into the courts of the Lord and if 
you want to see his power, his glory and 
his majesty then we ask for you to join 
us.

Pretending you are praising 
will not get you there but true worship
and praise will allow you to get 
a glimpse of the power and majesty of
God and will cause you to want to 
enter into the courts of the Lord 
daily.  

Want you join us as we walk through the 
streets of Judah into the courts of the 
Lord.

Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance 
of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil 
conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.


Hebrews 10:22

YOURS IS THE KINGDOM

Thine, O LORD, is the greatness, and the power, 
and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: 
for all that is in the heaven and in the earth 
is thine; thine is the kingdom, O LORD, 
and thou art exalted as head above all.
Both riches and honour come of thee, 
and thou reignest over all; 
and in thine hand is power and might; 
and in thine hand it is to make great, 
and to give strength unto all.
Now therefore, our God, we thank thee, 
and praise thy glorious name.

FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT

Photo provided by Kay Rowe

 Let as many servants as are under the yoke 
count their own masters worthy of 
all honour, that the name of God 
and his doctrine be not blasphemed.
And they that have believing masters, 
let them not despise them, because they 
are brethren; but rather do them service, 
because they are faithful and beloved, 
partakers of the benefit. These things teach 
and exhort. If any man teach otherwise, 
and consent not to wholesome words, 
even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, 
and to the doctrine which is according to godliness;
He is proud, knowing nothing, 
but doting about questions and strifes of words, 
whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, 
evil surmisings,  Perverse disputings of men of 
corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, 
supposing that gain is godliness: from such 
withdraw thyself.  But godliness with contentment 
is great gain.   For we brought nothing into this 
world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.
And having food and raiment let us be 
herewith content.   But they that will be rich fall 
into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish 
and hurtful lusts, which drown men in 
destruction and perdition. For the love of money 
is the root of all evil: which while some 
coveted after, they have erred from the faith, 
and pierced themselves through with many 
sorrows. But thou, O man of God, 
flee these things; and follow after righteousness, 
godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.
Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on 
eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, 
and hast professed a good profession before 
many witnesses.

VIEWING GLORY


This is something that we seen months ago and
I never shared because honestly I was a little
surprised by it and even questioned it at times
as to why we had seen this.

As Steve and I was returning from Tennessee in 
June the weather was so extremely bad the flights 
were canceled on us two times.  Finally getting a 
flight into Dallas from Nashville Tennessee, we 
realized that the bad weather was still causing issues. 

As the pilot announced to us that our landing
would possibly be delayed by an hour or so
he reminded us that they had added extra fuel
to the plane in case we had to stay in the air
for an hour or so before landing.  

As we got closer to the Dallas area I was praying
and watching the clouds intently.  They were
threatening and as I prayed for protection,
watch and care from the Lord, I spotted
something in the distance.  I thought it was 
another air plane but as I watched I realized it was a
shadow of our airplane with a complete rainbow 
surrounding it.  I was so excited, I told Steve 
to look out the window, he did and seen nothing.  
So I said, you gotta see this and he looked
again and saw nothing.  By this time I am 
thinking I might possibly be loosing my mind.  But
I was persistent and told him to put his head exactly 
where mine was.  He did and he was able to also see 
the most phenomenal thing.  We were both in awe.  There
were a hundred of other people on the aircraft that didn't 
see it because one had to be in the exact perfect spot to 
catch a glimpse of this reflection.  

I came home that night and searched the internet 
and found that when you see an airplane with a 
rainbow around the shadow, it is called, GLORY.
As I read what caused this phenomenal event
I realized in my own life that I constantly
need to ask the Lord to keep the storms of
life underneath me instead of letting them
engulf and control me and that the tears
of compassion mixed with those dark
clouds and the light of Jesus Christ
can also cause Glory to be seen in our
own lives

As the months have moved on I didn't post this
because I felt a bit out of place posting such a thing.  
But as God has opened the windows of heaven on
this ministry I feel that I need to share this because
not only did I get to see GLORY from the airplane and 
then turn to Steve and show him.  We have been 
able to see GLORY from the ground also.  

I say this so that you can understand I'm not the
only one seeing GLORY,   There are others
seeing the Glory of God.  We have heard lately
several stories of people finding physical
or emotional healing.  We have heard of
people finding Christ or returning to
the father for a closer walk with him.
We have ministry at our church to
diversified cultures that God is going
to use in a powerful way if we keep
our eyes on him. 

Take the time to look up glory from an aircraft and
see what I was able to see that day but most of
all keep praying that each of us get to
experience the GLORY of GOD from right
here on earth.  Keep your eyes on him and what he
is doing all around you as I have had several share
with me at work and at church lately how the Lord
is doing some glorious things in and through
them and we can all be a part of seeing the Glory
of God shining forth in lives, in families
and in churches.

KEEP YOUR EYES OPEN
and you will get to see glory in a brighter 
more exciting way each day.

Comfort ye, comfort ye my people,
saith your God.  Speak ye comfortably
to Jerusalem, and cry unto her,
that her warfare is accomplished,
that her iniquity is pardoned:
for she hath received of the LORD’S
hand double for all her sins.  The voice
of him that crieth in the wilderness,
Prepare ye the way of the LORD,
make straight in the desert a highway
for our God.  Every valley shall
be exalted, and every mountain and hill
shall be made low: and the crooked shall
be made straight, and the rough places plain:
And the glory of the LORD shall be 
revealed, and all flesh shall see it together: 
for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it

ISAIAH 40:1-5

THE FATHER SENDING A COMFORTER

Provided by Katrina Stevens

Verily, verily, I say unto you,
He that believeth on me,
the works that I do shall he do also;
and greater works than these
shall he do; because I go unto my Father.
And whatsoever ye shall ask
in my name, that will I do,
 that the Father may be glorified
in the Son. If ye shall ask any
thing in my name, I will do it.
If ye love me, keep my
commandments. And I will pray
the Father, and he shall give you
another Comforter, that he may
abide with you for ever;
Even the Spirit of truth; whom the
world cannot receive, because it seeth
him not, neither knoweth him:
but ye know him; for he dwelleth
with you, and shall be in you.
I will not leave you comfortless:
I will come to you.

John 14:12-18

I WILL BE WITH THEE

But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, 
O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, 
Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, 
I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine.
When thou passest through the waters, 
I will be with thee; and through the rivers, 
they shall not overflow thee: when thou
 walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be 
burned; neither shall the flame kindle 
upon thee.  For I am the LORD thy God, 
the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour:

O THE DEPTH OF HIS LOVE

Photo Provided by Kay Rowe

For as ye in times past have not believed God, 
yet have now obtained mercy through their unbelief:
Even so have these also now not believed, 
that through your mercy they also may obtain mercy.
For God hath concluded them all in unbelief, 
that he might have mercy upon all.
O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom 
and knowledge of God! how unsearchable 
are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!
 For who hath known the mind of the Lord? 
or who hath been his counsellor?
Or who hath first given to him, 
and it shall be recompensed unto him again?
For of him, and through him, and to him, 
are all things: to whom be glory for ever.

Romans 11: 30 - 36

THERE IS A RIVER

Photo by Kay Rowe


There is a river, the streams whereof shall 
make glad the city of God, the holy place of 
the tabernacles of the most High.  God is in 
the midst of her; she shall not be moved: 
God shall help her, and that right early.  
The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: 
he uttered his voice, the earth melted.  
The LORD of hosts is with us; 
the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah. 
Come, behold the works of the LORD, 
what desolations he hath made in 
the earth.He maketh wars to cease unto 
the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, 
and cutteth the spear in sunder; he burneth 
the chariot in the fire. Be still, and know t
hat I am God:  I will be exalted among the 
heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.  
The LORD of hosts is with us; 
the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.


Psalms 46
