What Does The Lord Say (wdtls) Podcast Site

Psalms 91 says ‘he that dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.’   God is a refuge, a shelter and a Hiding Place to those who trust in Him.  He protects us from danger, shelters us from the storm, and provides a safe place whenever we need it.    When God hides you, it is not as if the devil doesn’t know where you are, it’s just that the devil cannot get to you.  God becomes your shield and safety.   Some men trust in government, some in money but God is my refuge, He is my fortress, He is My Hiding Place!

We overcome the adversary by the Blood of the Lamb and The Word of Our Testimony!  One of the best faith igniters is seeing or hearing what the Lord has already done.  When we operate in unbelief and doubt, it is generally because we have forgotten what the Lord has done.  The redeemed of God should never cease to share their testimony. Jeremiah said that it is when I think of the mercies of God that I have hope, it’s when I realize His mercies are new every morning and His faithfulness never fails.   What has God done for you that you need to share?  What pit did He deliver you from?  What destruction did He bring you up out of?  What impossible situation did He fix for you?  Let the Redeemed of the Lord bear witness to His mighty acts.  We overcome by The Word of Our Testimony!

Don’t Settle! Do not grow complacent in a temporary place.  If you are in a place of ‘not enough’, ‘barely enough’ or ‘just enough’… God has more for you. He is the God of MORE than enough!Now unto Him who is able to do Exceeding, Abundantly, Above all that you ask or think.Your journey to the Abundant Life in Christ Jesus will often require that you travel through the valley, endure some hardship and experience a season of ‘not enough’, but these are temporary, and if you would remain steadfast, unmovable and abound in the things of Christ you will obtainthe abundance that Christ has promised you…. Don’t Settle!

Since the beginning of time God created seed time and harvest and He has given seed to the sower. Sowing and reaping teaches us faith principles as we plant, water, wait, watch and reap.  The bible warns us to not be deceived, God’s principles WILL prove true… a man shall reap what he sows. And in Joshua 3 God shows us that during the reaping or harvest season, God will cause an over abundance  of blessing (the rivers shall overflow its banks) in our lives. If you have sown by faith, decree and declare (and expect) that this harvest is your season for The Overflow!

As the people of God, we are not led by the world’s culture, we are called to influence and lead and to be the Salt of the Earth.  We do not make alliances with Democrats, Republicans, Independents, Social or Civic organizations at the expense of our Faith in God.  We do Not Lean Left, We do Not Lean Right, We STAND!  We Stand for Righteousness, We Stand for the Truth of God.  We Stand in adversity, we Stand in difficulty, we Stand when it may not be popular and even after we’ve have done everything we know to do to successfully resist and Stand our ground in the evil day, WE KEEP ON STANDING! STAND!

God said vengeance belongs to Me!  If you hold your peace and let the LORD fight your battles, the Victory belongs to you.   It may not be HOW you would do it or even WHEN you would do it BUT GOD WILL Trouble those who Trouble you AND He will give you rest! Turn it over to LORD, He'll work it out.    

In the Presence of God is the fullness of Joy!  And God has given us the Password into His Presence, The Password is Praise.   Enter into His Gates with Thanksgiving and into His Courts (Presence) with Praise, be Thankful unto Him and Bless His Name! He inhabits, dwells within the praises of His people. No matter what we are going through, God deserves our praise.  From the rising of the sun to the going down of the same, He is worthy to be praised.   Psalms 100:4 (Passion Bible)  Says the Password into God's presence is Praise

Innate within every soul is the thirst to be FREE.  God created us to be free.  Sin became a yoke of bondage enslaving us.   Many have suffered and some have given their lives in a quest for freedom. Little did some realize that what they truly long for cannot be found outside of Jesus.  Jesus is the great liberator. When He makes you free, you are free indeed!  With that great Liberation comes Redemption, Restoration and Reconciliation. We have been REDEEMED by the Blood of the Lamb, RESTORED by the Grace of God and RECONNECTED by His Love.  Praise the Lord, I’m Free! And we are charged to go spread the Good News… Jesus is still liberating, redeeming, restoring and reconciling the lost back to God.  

Psalms 27 tells us the God is the Source of our Strength and our Salvation. The attack from my enemies will not shake me from my faith foundation in God. I will not give up, I will not quit or lose hope, God will never disappoint those who trust in Him! We pray God put such a tenacity in your heart that no matter what you encounter, your faith will not fail and you will never Quit! God is Faithful.

Stir up the gifts of the Spirit that God has given you.  Ask God to put an intestinal fortitude within your soul that stirs you to Get Up from where you are and Do what you can with what God has already given you. If not now, then when? If not you, then who? Faith requires action.  God will do what you cannot do and He requires you to do what you can.  Get Up, Get Going and Watch What God will do though you.

In life we often go through what appears to be detours, delays and difficulties.  While these seem like frustrating setbacks, they are opportunities and setups to push us into our destiny.  God always causes the events in our lives to work together for our good.  What seems like a Detour, Delay or Difficulty is a necessary stepping stone in our faith journey.

What Now? What do you do, how do you respond… when your situation seems hopeless and your options are few? What do you do when your faith is being tested and it feels like you won’t make it through? How do you respond when your dream seems impossible and the One you are trusting in seems unresponsive? The disciples had that same dilemma on the Friday that Jesus was ripped from them, beaten and died.  We now call it Good Friday because we know there was a Resurrection Sunday!  But What do you do when you’re living through that Friday disappointment and Sunday seems so far away? What Now?    It’s easier said than done, but when we’ve done all we know to do, we must Keep Standing, Keeping Believing and Keep Trusting that Friday is temporary and Sunday morning is coming!    

When Pilate asked the angry crowd what he should do with Jesus - the Christ, the mob yelled out Crucify Him! We live in a day when the societal mob wants to crucify Jesus afresh along with all who serve Him. It’s not popular to live for God in word and in deed.  But that is exactly what believers are called to do.  Honoring God only with our lips is no different than denying Him.  As we approach the holiest of seasons for believers, we ask you …. What will You do with Jesus?  As for us, we will Worship, Love and Adore Him Unashamedly!

We serve Jehova Shaddai, the Almighty God.  Not only is He Almighty, He is Omniscient.  There is NOTHING that God does not know.   So when God asks a question, He already knows the answer. When He asks us a question, He is often doing it to focus our attention on what matters. He asked Abraham 'Is there Anything to hard for God?  He wanted Abraham to focus in the promise of God and not the limitations of man. He asked the disciples, Whom do men say that I Am? He wanted the disciples to focus on Jesus the Christ and not the persecution that was to come. In Exodus 4, when Moses and Israel were before an impenatrable red sea with a relentless pharaoh pursuing them, God asked Moses WHAT is in your hand?  He wanted Moses to focus on God and remember how God had previously used Moses' rod to defeat the enemy and not on the trouble in front on him or the enemy pursuing him.   We ask you, WHAT has God given you?   No matter how small or insignifant it seems, when God blesses it, your WHAT is All that you need in the

Romans 8:31 says If God be for us, WHO can be against us?  If you are currently or have ever faced headwinds in your life, if you have enemies or naysayers that want to see you fail, If you know what it is to be counted out when you are down or  if you understand the reality of spiritual warfare…. this scripture is food for your soul!  God assures us in His Word that when He is for us (and He is), then you can shout to your enemies, your circumstances and your doubters…. WHO!  Join us for a passionate and encouraging Word this evening as we remind you to remind your enemy, WHO!

…. the significance of Midnight is that it denotes a SHIFT of the End of 1 day and the Beginning of Another day.   It may not appear as though much has changed from 11:59pm to 12:00am.  It is as dark if not darker.  There is no visible change in the atmosphere. But be very sure, when the clock strikes Midnight, A New Day has begun! A Shift has occurred. Things Have Changed…. you just don’t see it YET. Even so, in the supernatural, Midnight is symbolic of a SHIFT.  a Change. a New Day. The shift occurs in the supernatural before it is manifested in the natural. You must Believe to SEE the Goodness of God.  Your Change happens in the supernatural BEFORE you see it in the natural. So, AT MIDNIGHT, before you see it, before you feel it, before it is apparent, Pray, and Sing Praises Unto God…. Put a Praise On it!

No matter what you are facing in your life, don't stop praying! Pray is still the answer, the solution, the path to access the presence of God.  The old hymn said, Oh wait peace we often forfeit, Oh what needless pain we bare ALL because we do not carry, EVERYTHING to God in prayer!  We have both the Privilege and the Opportunity to come boldly to the throne of Grace.  Don't Stop Praying!

Everything! that the devil tried, God made it Fail!!! No weapon formed against you shall prosper... What the enemy meant for evil, God turned around for your good. Trust that God will faithfully upend the plans of the enemy and has already carved out your victory. Every time the enemy tries and everything that the enemy tries, God WILL make it Fail.

Micah 6:8... God has told us what He wants, You should be Fair, Just, Merciful and Humble before God. God is the ultimate Judge and be very sure ... You will reap what you sow.    

Luke 15:4 And Jesus spoke a parable saying....What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine ain the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, UNTIL he find it? God's Love Never Gives Up on you!
