Words of Wisdom - Focus & Purpose

 

If you are not experiencing God's rest and His peace during this time you have strayed from purpose.  At this time, I warn, urge and admonish you to get back to and remain focused on true purpose - getting to know Him more and winning souls into the kingdom like never before.  Get your mind off provision, off visible challenges and on purpose - heaven's vision. 

Phil 3:10   "That I may know him...

Acts 26:16-19  "But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared unto thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness both of these things which thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I will appear unto thee; Delivering thee from the people, and from the Gentiles, unto whom now I send thee; To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me;... Paul said, "I was not disobedient unto the heavenly vision."

Rev 2:2-5   "I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars: And hast borne, and hast patience, and for my name's sake hast laboured, and hast not fainted.  Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love (purpose).  Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.

Titus 3:8    "This is a faithful saying, and these things I will that thou affirm constantly, that they which have believed in God might be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable unto men."

Focusing on this dual purpose - getting to know Him more and winning souls into the kingdom like never before - keeps God's anointing upon you and stress and false emotions off you.  How can you truly experience God's peace when at some point and time your zeal stirred up your spirit-man and he was active in you...then when you slowed down He slowed down and slowly the anointing begin to vanish and old, false emotions and moods begin to re-appear.

The moment you get out of purpose it becomes very evident.  The door to false emotions (emotions that take you from trusting God), financial focus and day to day operations can and will take toll on your body.  Beware: When you are not fulfilling purpose on a daily basis eventually the grieving of your spirit will show up in physical sickness. Physical sickness may not be only apparent illness, but can simply be a confused, un-sound, disturbed mind.  Close the door today and begin to trust God, study God's Word, meditate on God's Word, tell others about God's Word and rejoice knowing that your every need has been already met.  Trust Him with every situation (I repeat...every situation) that you may be facing knowing that He will always release the victory/breakthrough you desire. Remember, it's all about timing...keeping His anointing (the presence of the Holy Spirit) upon you enables you to see the victory at the right time.

Ps 51:10-13 "Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me. Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit. Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee. (Back to purpose)

This is a reminder to FOCUS on purpose...provision will be released for whatever the need may be - it could simply be more of His peace.  God is waiting for you to wait on Him.  Be still.  Stop rushing and moving fast throughout the day like the world.  This is the time for you to truly rest and wait on God.  Rest means that you are so confident in Him and trust solely in His Word that His peace that passes your understanding will overtake you.  You should be experiencing His peace, He gave to you.  Don't settle for less and don't let false emotions move you from His rest, His peace.  The Holy Spirit wants to reveal more of God's heart to you.

Faith in Action (Practical steps you can follow to stay in purpose):
Pray in the Spirit (Double your prayer time in the Spirit. I beleive there is a 'catch-up' anointing that the Holy Spirit is releasing as you pray in the Spirit that will bring you back on God's timetable instantly!)
Be determined to know HIM even more
Be still.
Embrace any quiet time (Don't always curl up and take a nap during this time).
Get wisdom. Read, study and meditate on God's Word like never before.
Be patient.
Be satisfied.
Be thankful.
Say NO to the things and people - stop letting your time be consumed (stolen)
Release yourself from the need to know everything.
Win Souls!!!Tell others about the victory in Christ!!!
This is direction for 'daily victory' - now and for the years to come - not just for the remainder of the year or just for 2009.  It's time out for us to stop looking and seeking for a word to get us over the hump.  We need to know we are already over it and our daily experience of victory will come as we follow the simple steps God has placed before us.  No more humps! Seek your daily victories now!  They belong to you.

FAVOR AIN'T FAIR! A KING'S CONFESSION.

Psalm 102:13 NKJV ~You will arise and have mercy on Zion; For the time to favor her, Yes, the set time has come.

"It's my time of favor! The set time has come!
I am the blessed! I am the favored!
God's favor is surrounding me as a shield!
My day and entire year is crowned with God's goodness! My paths drip with God's abundance!
I expect to experience the blessing of God; the favor of God and the grace of God in an unprecedented way all day and every day!
I am blessed and I am a blessing! I am a great nation!
I am blessed with an abundant increase of favor (s) and God has made my name famous and distinguished!
My God has supplied my every need according to His riches in glory in and by Christ Jesus!
The favor of God is making my life easier right now and providing noticeable advantages that mere men can't understand!
I am a sower and God is supplying and increasing my supply of seed and enlarging my harvest of righteousness!
I am the blessed! I am the highly favored! I am the healed! I am the righteousness of God and I am blessed in every area of my life!
I am a true manifestation and true evidence of God's blessing, God's favor, God's goodness and God's abundant grace!"
I receive Heaven's creativity! I receive from Heaven's economy and I receive my angelic assistance!
This is my time of favor! This is my time."    

-TLW

Job 22:28 AMP ~You shall also decide and decree a thing, and it shall be established for you; and the light [of God's favor] shall shine upon your ways.

Spiritual Maturity & Companions

 
::She seeks daily understanding, wisdom & insight of who she is
.:::She reads the Word of God daily.
:::She increases her knowledge by reading Biblical based books - led by the spirit.
:::She lives her life as a spirit and not as a carnal - flesh driven babe.
:::Her days are never casual but purposed.
:::She understands & comprehends that she is one with The Father.
:::She gives God the glory that is due His name.
:::She will praise God anytime, anywhere and around anybody.
:::Her 'God sent' companions increase her faith instead of testing her faith.
:::She boldly proclaims the good news of the gospel when the opportunity presents itself.
:::She is an intercessor. She doesn't just pray she intercedes.
:::She has a revelation that no love compares to the love of the Father. Therefore, she keeps Him and knowing Him her priority .
:::She walks in the dominion she has been given by God. She rejects lack, sickness, 'not enough', strife and lies.
Lastly,
:::She understands that a 'peaceable state' and a 'quiet mouth' are umpires for right choices as well as weapons in spiritual warfare.
 
God Sent Companions (response to comment above):
Spiritually Mature Sons of God (Men & Women) have the ability to discern between good and evil. Between God sent companions (divine appointments & connections) and demonically influenced companions sent by the devil to draw you back."But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil." Hebrews 5:14
All born again believers have this ability -'not gift' -but ability. Some have the spiritual gift 'discerning of spirits' as revealed in I Corinthians 12:10 but, all have the ability to discern/know right from wrong - good from evil. The more mature you are in the Word - not how long you have been saved - but how long you have been obeying the Word of God will display your level of maturity as well as your ability to know who's divine and who is not.

This level comes only with a right relationship with the Holy Spirit. He imparts us with all that is spiritual. He is the Spirit of Truth and He will unction you when you are dealing with anything or anyone that is not from the Source of truth.

A few key reference scriptures:
You know them by their fruit... Matt. 7:15-20
Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers... -2 Cor. 6:14
Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.
-I Cor. 15:33

PS. God will never send anyone in your life to tempt you. God is not the tempter - satan is. -James 1:13-15
------------------
This brief teaching does not exhaust this topic. There is so much more to share that it could be a book. This is what I was led to share for now.

Day 4 of the DOIC - a Powerful close by: The Voice of TLW

Day 4 of the Daughters of Increase 2012 "Heaven on Earth" Conference will have a powerful close with, Ontario Christian Center's own, Mrs. Tracy L. Williams.  Get to know her in the bio below and get to know her spirit this evening at 7pm at Ontario Christian Center.  If you cannot make it, I urge you to watch it streaming live at: http://djwsfm.org/LiveStream.html this is a word from Heaven that you don't want to miss!
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~


Tracy is a loving devoted wife, mother and grandmother, the first lady of Ontario Christian Center, a minister of the gospel, bestselling author, entrepreneur, on fire soul winner, and most importantly she has the heart and desires of God.
Born in 1968 in the heart of St. Louis, Missouri, Tracy was able to turn tragedy into victory. Two months before her birth Tracy’s father suffered an accidental death leaving Tracy and her brother Terroll to be a product of a single parent home raised by her now spirit-filled mother Geraldine. Life was not always easy but before the beginning of time God, her heavenly Father had already chosen her as His own. He knew Tracy would never be a statistic but a witness to the awesomeness He and only He could be capable to do.
Tracy attended the University of Missouri, and pursued her Bachelors at the International Academy- IMAD in Chicago, IL. Upon graduation in 1994 she moved to Los Angeles, California in perusal of an acting career. After being featured in several national sitcoms, and securing a commercial she found no satisfaction or fulfillment in these accomplishments.
Tracy found herself relocating back to Chicago pursuing her intended career in marketing. She pioneered her own marketing and public relations company in 1998 called Moss Plus, Inc. where she secured marketing contracts with start-up IT companies, the professional sports arena, entertainment groups, along with one of Chicago’s top secular radio stations.
God had purpose when Tracy went back to Chicago and although fruitful in her career as an entrepreneur, actress, and model, this was far from what God had in mind. In November 2001 Tracy L. Williams realized what it meant to humble herself in the sight of God as she cried out for newness and change in her life. She no longer wanted the world's definition of who she should be. The Lord heard the sincerity of her heart and a true intimate love between her and God was completely restored.
In February 2002 she became a member of Living Word Christian Center under the authority of Pastor Bill Winston were she underwent a radical transformation becoming a doer of the Word. At Living Word Christian Center Tracy was water baptized, filled with the Holy Spirit and made perfect in Christ for Dr. Juan Williams, Sr. to find her.
Within one year Tracy became the first African-American woman salesperson at a Mercedes-Benz dealership in Chicago. There she served the Christian and secular community, not only automobiles but the “Gospel”. Her office became a rest haven for lost souls. The good news of Jesus she shared compelled managers, staff, and clients to come to know Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. This pruning is what opened up the door for God to truly release more of His blessings upon her.
In August 2003 Tracy responded to the call of God to leave Mercedes (the world system) and go preach the gospel. It was during this time that Dr. Juan Williams, Sr. “found a good thing” and Tracy was married and off to California. Tracy had been cultivating and practicing hearing God’s voice so when it was time to go she was confident. She may have left her natural family 3000 miles away but the Holy Spirit was preparing her for the church and children who would become her own. God had positioned Tracy as a co-laborer to accompany Dr. Juan Williams, Sr., her husband, in ministry where she could uphold and run with the vision God placed in both of their hearts to ‘seek and save those which are lost’ and ‘setting men free through the knowledge of Jesus Christ’.
Tracy is currently an overseer of the OCC Women’s Ministry (Daughters of Increase) and Young Daughters of Increase, keynote speaker of the Annual Daughter’s of Increase Conference, favored instructor in the OCC Intercessory Prayer School, and has recently birthed “Can We Talk Thursday’s?” which is an intimate, informal environment where it’s just ladies, getting together, loving each other, asking questions, receiving wisdom, sharing, gaining revelation, and above all else, overcoming! Her greatest contribution to the body of Christ is her heart to win souls. She is a faithful soul winner who does not hesitate to put on her walking shoes and go out into the streets with her congregation to knock on doors rain or shine every week. Tracy understands that her life is a reflection of God’s goodness and what was given to her God has for everyone who chooses life. She desires to bring life to the world.
In 2007, Tracy launched The Voice of TLW. She has purposed in her heart to share, keep it real, and be transparent as she walks in Christ. Tracy seeks opportunities to help others succeed and has provided opportunities for other women to partner with her vision thus stirring up their faith as well. Tracylwilliams.org ministers to the hearts of many women all over the globe, from LA to South Africa, to the UK.
In 2008, TLW Publications was established to provide world-class services for those spirit-led authors and inventors who create and desire to publish divine books and magazines of revelation. TLW Publications is for those who dare to step out in faith and give birth to what God placed on their heart in times past. TLW says, “It’s time.” Another entity in preparation for it’s due season is, The Jesus Rehab project which is a refuge for the poor in spirit; those lacking in spiritual leading, guidance and counsel or simply for the mature in Christ who just need some ‘Peace be still…’ time. The Jesus Rehab project is established unto the Lord and will cause women to experience the love of God; to know the grace of the Lord Jesus; and to truly
fellowship and communion with the Holy Spirit like never imagined.
Tracy and her husband Dr. Juan Williams, Sr., pastor Ontario Christian Center in Ontario, California. They are the proud parents of six and grandparents to seven; including triplets! Tracy’s deepest desire is to know more of God daily as she seeks and effectively saves the lost; teaches believers obedience to the ministry of the Holy Spirit; and intercedes daily on behalf of the nations. She is a dynamic soughtafter minister of the Gospel with the unique gifting to share biblical revelations that meet people right where they are. She keeps it real! Real answers for real people who seek a real Jesus. Falling in love with Jesus is truly the best thing Tracy could have ever done. Tracy L. Williams is a mover and a shaker changing the world through prayer and soul winning while maintaining her role as a helpmate to her husband and role model to generations to come. Just ask and she too will show you how to intimately fall in love with Jesus as you really experience life IN CHRIST.
“Deep inside I always wanted to see better for my family. I tried to encourage them myself in what I thought was success… completing college, degrees, executive positions and an acting career all that only brought temporary fame. But, it was not until I dedicated my life to Christ that I truly began to see the change in my family that I so deeply desired. My obedience was the key.” TLW

"Be Free From Worry Right Now!": Confession

"I do not fret or have any anxiety about anything! I have no worries or concerns! In everything and in every circumstance, by prayer and with specific requests and thanksgiving I make my wants known to God!

God's peace is mine! That peace that transcends all understanding is guarding my heart and mind in Christ Jesus right now!

I'm remaining in God's rest. Whatever is true, whatever is worthy of reverence, whatever is honorable and just and pure, whatever is lovely and lovable, whatever is kind and gracious and excellent, whatever is worthy of praise I'm thinking on and I'm keeping my mind fixed on these things!

I'm practicing what I have learned and received and heard and seen in Christ and I'm modeling my way of living on it and, the God of untroubled, undisturbed well- being is with me!

I cast all anxieties, worries and concerns once and for all on Him. For I know that He cares for me and watches over me with affection!

I am well balanced, temperate and sober in my mind! I am firm in faith! I am standing against the strategies of the devil to try to move me. I am firm footed against him and I will not be moved by circumstances or people!

I have strength for all things in Christ Who empowers me! I ready for anything and equal to anything through Him Who infuses inner strength into me. I am self-sufficient in Christ's sufficiency!

And, ...my God has liberally supplied, filled to the full, my every need according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

To Him, my God and Father be all the glory forever and ever. Amen."

:::Phil. 4:6-9, 13, 19; I Pet. 5:6-11:::

The Book of Jude: The 'Spirit' of Betrayal Exposed

Beloved, my whole concern was to write to you in regard to our common salvation. [But] I found it necessary and was impelled to write you and urgently appeal to and exhort [you] to contend for the faith which was once for all handed down to the saints [the faith which is that sum of Christian belief which was delivered verbally to the holy people of God].
 For certain men (or women) have crept in stealthily [gaining entrance secretly by a side door]. Their doom was predicted long ago, ungodly (impious, profane) persons who pervert the grace (the spiritual blessing and favor) of our God into lawlessness and wantonness and immorality, and disown and deny our sole Master and Lord, Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One).
 Now I want to remind you, though you were fully informed once for all, that though the Lord [at one time] delivered a people out of the land of Egypt, He subsequently destroyed those [of them] who did not believe [who refused to adhere to, trust in, and rely upon Him].
 And angels who did not keep (care for, guard, and hold to) their own first place of power but abandoned their proper dwelling place--these He has reserved in custody in eternal chains (bonds) under the thick gloom of utter darkness until the judgment and doom of the great day.
 [The wicked are sentenced to suffer] just as Sodom and Gomorrah and the adjacent towns--which likewise gave themselves over to impurity and indulged in unnatural vice and sensual perversity--are laid out [in plain sight] as an exhibit of perpetual punishment [to warn] of everlasting fire.
 Nevertheless in like manner, these dreamers also corrupt the body, scorn and reject authority and government, and revile and libel and scoff at [heavenly] glories (the glorious ones).
 But when [even] the archangel Michael, contending with the devil, judicially argued (disputed) about the body of Moses, he dared not [presume to] bring an abusive condemnation against him, but [simply] said, The Lord rebuke you!
 But these men revile (scoff and sneer at) anything they do not happen to be acquainted with and do not understand; and whatever they do understand physically [that which they know by mere instinct], like irrational beasts--by these they corrupt themselves and are destroyed (perish).  Woe to them! For they have run riotously in the way of Cain, and have abandoned themselves for the sake of gain [it offers them, following] the error of Balaam, and have perished in rebellion [like that] of Korah!
 These are hidden reefs (elements of danger) in your love feasts, where they boldly feast sumptuously [carousing together in your midst], without scruples providing for themselves [alone]. They are clouds without water, swept along by the winds; trees, without fruit at the late autumn gathering time--twice (doubly) dead, [lifeless and] plucked up by the roots;
Wild waves of the sea, flinging up the foam of their own shame and disgrace; wandering stars, for whom the gloom of eternal darkness has been reserved forever.
 It was of these people, moreover, that Enoch in the seventh [generation] from Adam prophesied when he said, Behold, the Lord comes with His myriads of holy ones (ten thousands of His saints) to execute judgment upon all and to convict all the impious (unholy ones) of all their ungodly deeds which they have committed [in such an] ungodly [way], and of all the severe (abusive, jarring) things which ungodly sinners have spoken against Him.
 These are inveterate murmurers (grumblers) who complain [of their lot in life], going after their own desires [controlled by their passions]; their talk is boastful and arrogant, [and they claim to] admire men's persons and pay people flattering compliments to gain advantage.
 But you must remember, beloved, the predictions which were made by the apostles (the special messengers) of our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One).
They told you beforehand, In the last days (in the end time) there will be scoffers [who seek to gratify their own unholy desires], following after their own ungodly passions.
 It is these who are [agitators] setting up distinctions and causing divisions--merely sensual [creatures, carnal, worldly-minded people], devoid of the [Holy] Spirit and destitute of any higher spiritual life.
 But you, beloved, build yourselves up [founded] on your most holy faith [make progress, rise like an edifice higher and higher], praying in the Holy Spirit; Guard and keep yourselves in the love of God; expect and patiently wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah)--[which will bring you] unto life eternal.
 And refute [so as to] convict some who dispute with you, and on some have mercy who waver and doubt. [Strive to] save others, snatching [them] out of [the] fire; on others take pity [but] with fear, loathing even the garment spotted by the flesh and polluted by their sensuality.
 Now to Him Who is able to keep you without stumbling or slipping or falling, and to present [you] unblemished (blameless and faultless) before the presence of His glory in triumphant joy and exultation [with unspeakable, ecstatic delight]--
To the one only God, our Savior through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory (splendor), majesty, might and dominion, and power and authority, before all time and now and forever (unto all the ages of eternity). Amen (so be it). Jude (Amplified version):::
