Feels good to be back!

    
     Hello my dear followers, I just want to inform you that I have not been able to do my blog posts because my computer crashed, and praise the Lord 220 dollars later its fixed and whole again. Sometimes through our trials if we dont hold fast  the enemy will bring us more to where we just want to give up on life. That seems like where I have been the last couple of weeks. First I was fighting some pretty bad symptoms, but you can read about that in my post before this one today. Second my Laptop unexpectedly crashed. Third as of the moment my car is in the shop because it kind of like blew up or "Smoked Up" I guess you could say, because I am car less for the last 2 days. Being a college student and all of this happening at once just kind of put me into a pickle but I have been uping my dosage  of the word and let me tell you that is the only way you can get yourself out of this kinda of funk the devil puts us in. Remember something? God will bless you when you obey him. It is important to know the difference between the devils thoughts and God thoughts. I realized something yesterday after I attended a funeral for somebody who committed suicide. It was so devastating, but that's what happens when you the the devils thoughts role your life and we cant focus on him. When we rejoice through the storm the enemy will no longer try to mess with our minds. "We cant listens to our heads, we have to listen to our God, and Soul"  At the moment I feel like a crazy chicken because it seems like I am always busy at the moment. But remember God will bless us when we bless others and HOLD-FAST! I tell myself not to give up, I have came to far. Its hard yes, but not with God and we have to remember that everybody. The famous verse reminds me of this daily. "All things are possible through Christ who strengthens us" // Philippians 4:13 If it wasn't possible God would not put us through it. Hold on its only temporary! As I'm mentally exhausted right now I still put God first and I put him first daily before everything and everyone these past couple of days. I personally want to say thankyou to all the people who have been praying for me and not giving up on me. This verse comes to mind when I said that "For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them." // Matthew 18:20. It is so powerful when 2 or more come in agreement with you. I am so thankful for the prayer warriors that I have.  They are so precious and dear to me.  As I am enjoying pineapple at the moment I am reminded about how thankful about having food on my plate and being able to hold food down and eat again. I think why I got sick was because I had let depression in. But not no more, Praise the Lord!

I want to share a little bit from a fabulous church service I went to in Bakersfield on Tuesday night. I felt like the Lord was speaking to me through his message. It was crazy! But how the Lord works sometimes just makes me in awe of him more.

"In the test and trials your going to have to endure through faith"

"The will of God is that you tithe"

"Be a finisher"

"Faith will do whatever it takes" Faith doesn't quit and never goes backwards!



I would Love to pray for you! Leave me your prayer requests.

With Love, Sarah Elizabeth

"All things are getting better and better," dont give up now!

Down on my Knees!

   
      Hey followers, I just wanted to encourage you how great it is to get down on our knees in prayer! I have been overcoming a battle lately with my health, but I haven't given up! I obeyed the Lord tonight and got down in prayer tonight and Praised through the hurt, and thanked my God that the healing is already mine. "Sometimes being down on our Knees in prayer, is the greatest way to overcome the battle!"- Sarah Elizabeth.  Im praying for strong health tonight! I broke down into tears when I realized how precious that Jesus died for mine and your healing's. Don't let go of how precious our Savior is! All thing works for our good. [When sickness tries to strike you, and the enemy roars with symptoms and pain, say, "No, Satan! I'm hidden in healing, and Im not coming out!-Nancy Dufresne.] It's kind of like a hide and seek game if you think about it, your hidden in Christ! Gods love has just over poured me tonight, even through the storm I chose to get down on my knees.  That was really all I had to say for this post. But I want to share some healing scriptures if your in need of them like I am today!

 "He sent His word and healed them, And delivered them from their destruction's" // Psalm 107:20

"And the LORD will take away from you all sickness, and will afflict you with none of the terrible diseases of Egypt which you have known, but will lay them on all those who hate you." //Deuteronomy 7:15

"For I will restore health unto you, and I will heal you of your wounds, saith the Lord." // Jeremiah 30:17

"Behold, I will bring you health and cure, and I will cure you, and will reveal unto you the abundance of peace and truth." // Jeremiah 33:6

"Therefore I say to you whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them." // Mark 11:24

These songs brought my heart so much peace tonight! I listened to one of them as I was down on my knees tonight!

     Moments with my savior are just absolutely precious to me. Sitting here today with God on my side. Well I want to share a little about last night. So last night I went to a church service to see an awesome man of God minister and it was an hour away but it was so worth it. The Lord had been laying it on my heart that it was something that I needed to do, but the funny thing is my car was not drivable since last Thursday so it was all God that my car had got out of the shop just in time for last night. Obeying the Lord and getting to the service was precious, because man did God show up on me. My Joy was completely restored, and I got drunk off the spirit of the Lord. Hahahahahha smiling and laughing all night long I was. Don't think about the distractions the enemy tries to throw at us because it will only kill, steal, and destroy our peace and faith. "Therefore, my beloved and longed-for brethren, my joy and crown, so stand fast in the Lord, beloved.(Philippians 4:4 NKJV)" To feel complete joy is absolutely precious. Do you love God? Do you Love Jesus? Are you happy? Well Jesus brings us our joy and happiness and makes me so happy to know I'm saved completely. Tell yourself that satans wrong, I'm right. You outta be gratitude your not going to hell
 Dont Cry, REJOICE!  Don't gripe be happy, and praise God. 
Here are some verses I want to share with you if you are feeling confused. 
  • I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go. I will guide you with my eye. (Psalms 32:8)
  • For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil , to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon me and go and pray to me, and I will listen to you. And you will seek me and find me, when you search for me with all your heart. (Jeremiah 29:11-13)     
"One measure of our love for Christ is our sensitivity to the needs of others."

Blessed is the person who does not follow the advice of wicked people, take the path of sinners, or join the company of mockers" Psalms 1:1

Never give up on you, be a light to those hurting, bring them to know Jesus. Don't be scared or sad when you get judged or bashed on because of your faith.  Because the Lord should be you one and only ultimate Judge 

"All things are possible through Christ who strengthens us" (Phillipians 4:13)   
  
I want to leave you with some sweet songs and images.

Moments with the Lord this week

     So on Monday night I believe it was I was having pain like no other. So the Lord instructed me to get down on my knees and ask for my healing the correct way so I did. I cried this verse out to Jesus "O Lord my God, I cried out to you for help and you healed me" (Psalms 30:2) Woke up this morning feeling completely better, like my symptoms I've been having completely left. People tell me that its impossible when they are an unbeliever but It is not impossible because my Jesus is the biggest and most ultimate healer there could possibly be. Don't tell me My GOD is fake because he is completely real, take time to get to know him. Another verse that I meditate on when I am looking for a healing is "Heal me, O Lord, and I will be healed. Rescue me, and I will be rescued, You are the one I praise. (Jeremiah 17:14)  Jesus is the ultimate healer never forget that. Praise through the storm and he will bring you Joy in the morning.

Just a couple things I got from the bible and devotionals so far this week. Here you go.

"The fire has no power upon my body" If you are walking through a fiery test, you cannot afford to surround yourself with companions who are speaking words of doubt every time you speak words of faith.

Do you think it is important to spend time with God during the week? Well for me personally that's where i found the most comfort in my days, and week. Feeling that precious sweet feeling God places you in during that time, whether it be Prayer, Praise, Reading the Word. Its all absolutely precious and never ending to me. " Thy word [is] a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path."(Psalms 119:105) The verse says it all and its something I hold tightly onto, my bible! I find a cure to every problem in there. Give it a try if you don't already.

There was a moment this week where a friend had told me that they were having thoughts of death on their life. I prayed so much that night, I weeped, and just thanked God for his amazing victory over her life and my life. And minutes later, Guess what happen, the Lord showed up on her and everyone of the thoughts she was having vanished.  The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly.(John 10:10)  I wont let any part of that stupid satan into my surrounding believers of Christ, I pray my heart out for them, because God listens to our prayers. "For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them."(Matthew 18:20)  That's a powerful thing being connected together in prayer.

Thankful for the people I have in my life. Received some sweet words this week from dear friends.
"The Lord will continually guide you, and satisfy your desire in scorched places, and give strength to your bones, and you will be like a watered garden and like a spring of water whose waters do not fall" (Isaiah 58:11) That verse as been heavy in my heart so I thought I would share it.

Look straight ahead at Jesus and keep your mouth shut towards of doubt, unbelief and evil speaking.


God bless you guys, you are loved, never forget that.
