Back to the basics...

In the very beginning, God created the earth and the Heavens. He did it. He created everything. Sometimes I forget this.

God created us

Once God formed us with His hands, in His own image, He breathed His breath into us. We are part of Him. We are His children, we are His bride.

He then gave us authority over everything and told us to multiply. He didn’t create us to stay the same, but to multiply. To grow and to explore all that He has given us.

We then chose against Him, and listened to the snake that only held evil, lies and manipulation. Those for which, God didn’t create us for. They are not part of His image. We forgot who we were and all the good we are partaking in, as we walk in His divine nature.

So what was God’s plan to redeem everything we had lost? To give everything once again, He gave Himself, He gave Jesus. Jesus poured all He had out, crying blood as He cried out to forgive us, for we don’t know what we are doing. Then it was finished. He did it. He made a way for us to get back to having no space between us and God. We get to live in total freedom as we repent and give all of ourselves back to Him. We get to live in His joy even in suffering and His peace through war.

This season has been a time of God taking me back to basics. I am not saying God did all that happened, but I know He was with me as the amazing husband he is, I know He was still in control. Plus, I know He wasn’t going to let the time go by without me learning more about Him! To go deeper into His presence! I pray that not a day goes by that this happens! May I always hang onto Him, whether it is hard or not.

He has reminded me that He is the creator and He gets to go before me.

The first thing He did after He created human, was to have a Sabbath, He rested. I don’t believe He needed to rest, but He wanted to be that example to Adam, to live in His resting place. May that first day be the standard in everything.

God has shown me how to be so rooted in Him, that chaos cannot shake me. That lies and accusations cannot move me out of His truth. That intimacy and peace with God always go together. He is the King of peace, truth and love. I get to live in that place, even when I am currently in a fallen world.

As you can appreciate, I can’t give all details of Tuesday on my very public blog, so do ask me if you would like to know the miracle God did. But what I can say is that I saw a miracle happen right in front of me. I saw Gods promises fulfilled and His light shine bright. I saw all accusations that were said about me disappear and His truth manifest.

He created me. He is in charge. And I get to participate in His divine nature.

It is a gift and a wonder.

When I woke up on Tuesday morning, before getting ready to go to the embassy I asked Jesus what His word for today is and I opened my bible to search what He was going to give me. But I didn’t have to. I opened the bible right on what He wanted me to read – 2 Chronicles 20. This has been the chapter God has taken me back to since November.

God had already won the battle for me, and I got to walk into everything with His victory!

We get to be victorious because of His victories! Blows my mind!

Thank you to everyone that prayed! I have been overwhelmed with how many have been part of this journey with me! People that I have never met, letting me know that they pray for me regularly. I love the body of Christ and I really couldn’t do it without all of you!

I hope to be back by the end of next week, depending on when I receive my passport back. I am beyond excited to see everyone again! I just hope I'm understood, as my English accent has come back very strong!
