*BREAKING*: Nothing Like INNER PEACE!!


Happy Blessed Wednesday Family,

Well Loves......Holy Spirit's been in my Ear the last few days regarding folk's INNER PEACE......folk's SOUL PEACE!

And because I'm HIS and I'm Obedient, I've been PRAYING mightily for some of You and Your INNER PEACE.  The kind of PEACE that breaks the negative yolks of anger, resentment, bitterness, worry, unforgiveness, meanness, spiteful/vindictive spirit, fear, doubt, low self-esteem, lack of joy, lack of self-discipline, unbelief, living life as a pretender, living life with a hardened heart toward God, jealousy, pride, etc.

Wheweee, that's some kind of Prayer List. But to be honest, there are many walking around Right Now, Right This Second with their All-Is-Well-Hallelujah! Christian Mask on when in reality their Soul......their INNER PEACE is alllllll jacked up! And Loves, my soul aches...it hurts when I see some of our Brothers and Sisters walkin out life this way!!!!

And how can I be so forth-right and sure of this you ask?!? Cuz Family, I know EXACTLY what it looks like. That used to be ME!  Been There. Done That. Got the T-shirt!!! I was fabricating a Life of Peace when in reality, I was lacking INNER PEACE! Not a fun way to live and if Not for the GRACE of God, I would have missed out on God's Divine Purpose for Mona...the very *Reason* He created Me! God cannot live and dwell and abide and speak to a Soul when it's in a constant state of unrest.....when it's lacking INNER PEACE. And as I learned first-hand, YOU CAN FOOL OTHER FOLKS BUT YOU CAN'T FOOL GOD.

So today...Holy Spirit's message is to PLEASE, PLEASE seek PEACE in your Life. Seek INNER PEACE deep in your soul.  And Loves, if you're struggling to get to this sacred place of INNER PEACE due to the laundry list of under-belly stuff  listed above......... 

*Holy Spirit's Loving Suggestions?* Reach out to someone for Prayer....a consistent Prayer Partner. Join a Prayer Line that focuses on PEACE. Google "Scriptures on Peace" and Read your Bible, get into His Word. Sit quietly with Jesus and let Him speak comfort and PEACE to your Soul. Humbly and Honestly ask the Lord for Forgiveness and Repent of the "stuff" (and you know what "stuff" I'm talkin 'bout) that keeps your soul void of Peace. Distance yourself from toxic/negative folks.  Create a "Songs of PEACE" PlayList to chill-lax to. Take a Yoga Class.  Schedule a time with your Pastor, Priest or Rabbi to talk about your feelings. Find a Genuine, Trust-worthy friend or confidant (who's NOT a Gossip) to confide in/share with. If possible, do a **Real Talk Session** with family, your spouse or significant other. EMAIL ME at wincty@aol.com...I will Pray with You and I will Help You because I Love You! 

As most of us Word Abiders know (and I'm paraphrasing)......."Our God is NOT the author of Confusion but of Peace." (1 Corinthians 14:33).  So this is the Last Place HE wants Us to Live....this is the Last Way HE wants Us to Walk Out Our Lives. Family, Our Daddy God has Soooooo MUCH for Us to Experience and Do as we walk out the Gift of Life He gave to Us. He wants to Bless Us so we can be a Blessing.  He wants Us to reflect the Image of Jesus and be His Light in the Darkness to help others. He wants Us to take our Imperfect selves and be Living, Breathing Testimonies of His Goodness, Mercy, Compassion and Love! And we can't Do and Be ALL He's got for Us To Do and Be if we're lacking INNER PEACE.

So Loves, as I close out our time together today, I'm leaving you with: 1) Three *PEACE* Scriptures to get you started and to ride shotgun with you (insert your Name to make them Personal); 2) A Mighty Powerful God Word to Pray Over You; 3) A Soaking Song to give you PEACE (Love the Santana-esque Guitar Solo!!).  

AND Family,  I encourage You to turn off the TV; shut down the iPad, Laptop, Phone, Tablet; stop the mindless, unproductive busyness; remove the annoying distractions; silence the Noise and **BE STILL**.........and seek to find some INNER PEACE via *Holy Spirit's Loving Suggestionsabove (in red).  I can PROMISE You as a one who's Been There. Done That and Got the T-shirt!! It's the ONLY way to Truly Live an Awesome-sauce Life of INNER PEACE and to Live Out Your God-Ordained, Divine Purpose#PureFreedom!!

#1:
"And the Peace of God, which passes all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." (Philippians 4:7, JUB)

"You will keep him in perfect Peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You." (Isaiah 26:3, NKJV)

"Keep my commands in your heart, for they will prolong your life many years and bring you Peace and prosperity." (Proverbs 3:1-2, NIV)

#2:
"My response is to get down on my knees before the Father, this magnificent Father who parcels out all heaven and earth.  I ask him to strengthen you by his Spirit - not a brute strength but a glorious inner strength - that Christ will live in you as you open the door and invite him in.  And I ask him that with both feet planted firmly on love, you'll be able to take in with all followers of Jesus the extravagant dimensions of Christ's love.  Reach out and experience the breadth!  Test its length!  Plum the depths! Rise to the heights! Live full lives, full in the fullness of God." (Ephesians 3:17-19, MSG)


#3:  Song: "STAY CLOSE TO ME" by Chris Lizotte

**Whewee!! WOW! I forgot how much this *Song* just flat out wrecks me (in a good way!!) Oh Hallelujah!! WOW! Thanks again Min-suh for bringing this God Message back to the Top!! Glory!! Thank You Lord!!









Continued Success & Abundant Blessings!

WHY WE ARE NOT SHOWN THE BIG PICTURE

Happy Blessed Wednesday Family,

Well Loves. Got an Inspirational Word for Us Today through our friend Madisyn Taylor from *Daily Om*

The Full Title of the Mighty Read is: Why We Are Not Shown The Big Picture: Fully Committed To Now.

And Family, while I agree with 99% of this Word of Confirmation from Ms. Taylor, I do have to raise my hand up Real High with a Warning that I'm NOT in agreement with some of the sources she sights that folks use when "fleshly searching for their bigger picture" (i.e., psychics & tarot cards).  Cuz I'm a God-Abider and my Father God is my ONLY Source when it comes to my search for direction and guidance for my life.

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths." (Proverbs 3:5-6, NKJV)

Sooooo with that said, I encourage you to get comfy, brew some soothing tea or bev of choice and get your Read On.  So you can soak in some knowledge of why Our Lord sometimes does NOT Show Us the Big Picture of HIS Awesome Plans for Our Lives..........


Often, we want to be shown the big picture but it is not always in our best interest, as we can easily become overwhelmed.

Sometimes, we may find ourselves wishing we knew what our lives are going to look like or what gifts and challenges are going to be presented to us in the coming months or years. We may want to know if the relationship we're in now will go the distance or if our goals will be realized. Perhaps we feel like we need help making a decision and we want to know which choice will work out best. We may consult psychics, tarot cards, our dreams, and many other sources in the hopes of finding out what the future holds. Usually, at most, we may catch glimpses. And even though we think we would like to know the whole story in all its details, the truth is that we would probably be overwhelmed and exhausted if we knew everything that is going to happen to us. 


Just think of your life as you've lived it up to this point. If you are like most of us, you have probably done more and faced more than you could have ever imagined. If someone had told you as a child of all the jobs and relationships you would experience, along with each one's inherent ups and downs, you would have become overwhelmed. With your head full of information about the future, you would have had a very hard time experiencing your life in the present moment, which is where everything actually happens. 

In many ways, not knowing what the future has in store brings out in us the qualities we need to grow. For example, it would have been difficult to commit yourself to certain people or projects if you knew they wouldn't ultimately work out. Yet, it was through your commitment to see them through that you experienced the lessons you needed to grow. Looking back on your life, you would likely be hard pressed to say that anything in your past should not have happened. In fact, your most challenging experiences with their inevitable lessons may have ultimately brought you the greatest rewards. Not knowing the future keeps us just where we need to be-fully committed and in the present moment.







Continued Success & Abundant Blessings!

I CARE ABOUT YOUR SOUL!! #SoulSalvation

Happy Blessed Wednesday Family,

Before we Get Into what "Thus Saith the Lord" Today, Gotta Pause and Give a Shout Out to HIS Newest Mona Girl Blog Family Members from Peru!! Welcome Loves!! God Bless You!!

Now.............Let's Get To IT!! For the last couple days, Holy Spirit's had SOULS heavy on my heart. And NOT just SOULS but Soul Salvation!! And as you can see, that's the FIRST thing listed for my Spirit-Granted Purpose at the top of Mona Girl Blog.

For the last 3 and 1/2 years, Abba Father's had me in an Intense Course on "Seeing Folks Souls". And to be honest, sometimes it's Not a pretty site.  I've learned the hard way that those I believed had committed their Lives & Souls to Jesus because they said they had......actually are living the exact opposite when it comes to their actions. Daddy God's given me His Divine Discernment to see who folks REALLY are in their Souls in contrast to Who they appear/pretend to be. Actions ALWAYS speak louder than words. 

**Pull Covers Off Mona Time**: You Ask HOW I know this about those folks?! Well Loves. I Used To Be One of those folks! I'm a "Playing Church Christian" in recovery & Got the T-Shirt. ðŸ˜‡

So, as I was saying.......Holy Spirit's had these folks (who call themselves Christians) heavy on my heart. And He's also had the folks who I've met who are Not Christians (Non-Believers) heavy on my heart as well.  And that's How/Why We've landed Right Here, Right Now Today.

Our Lord God is ALWAYS concerned about our Souls and most importantly, our Soul Salvation!! That's the MAIN reason He sacrificed His ONLY Son Jesus to die on the cross on Calvary for US!! For our sins. For our brokenness. For our weaknesses. For our disobedience. For ALL the stuff We are! Jesus wiped our slates CLEAN when He shed His Precious Blood on Calvary and became our Lord & Saviour!

"Jesus gave His life for our sins, just as God our Father planned, in order to rescue us from this evil world in which we live." (Galatians 1:4, NLT)

Nuff Said! Thank You Jesus!!!

So to circle back.........God is Concerned about Our Souls Right Now and After We Take Our Last Breath! So Jesus Sacrificed His Life for Us! So We could be FREE and KNOW when We no longer walk this Earth, We will have Eternal Life with Him in Heaven!! And Loves, Heaven & Hell are For Real For Real!! So Let's Make REALLY Sure, We Know that We KNOW Where and with Whom We'll spend Eternity. And Let's Make REALLY Sure, while We're still breathing, We LIVE LIFE to the Fullest, growing more and more in the Image of Jesus. Plain & Simple: Our Lord Jesus wants Us to Know Him....be ONE with Him.......Heart & Soul.  

"And eternal life means to know You, the only true God, and to know Jesus Christ, whom You sent." (John 17:3, GNT)

But before We can become more and more Christlike in our Heart & Soul, We must do Our Part and Decree and Declare the Prayer of Salvation! This Prayer ensures our Eternal Destiny and our Loving Covenant with Our Father God. This Prayer puts a Heavenly Seal on our Soul Salvation! This Prayer is our Divine Guarantee that We are ONE with HIM Forever!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hallelujah! Thank You Lord!

So I encourage those Who are Willing.....the Non-Believers and even the "Christians" Holy Spirit was chatting about up top.....the Souls the Lord's had heavy on my heart....to Say Out Loud the Prayer of Salvation to make uber certain You're On Adonai's Heavenly Guest List.......that Your Name is Written in the Lambs Book of Life!!

I CARE ABOUT YOUR SOUL!! #Soul Salvation!!


“Dear Jesus, you have promised that if I believe in you, everything I’ve ever done wrong will be forgiven, I will learn the purpose of my life, and you will accept me into your eternal home in Heaven one day.

“I confess my sin, and I believe that you are God, my Savior. I receive you into my life as my Lord. Today I’m turning over every part of my life to your management. You have the right to call the shots in my life.

“Jesus, I want to relax in your love. Thank you that I don’t have to earn it or deserve it or work for it. I want to use the rest of my life to serve you instead of serving myself. I humbly commit my life to you and ask you to save me and accept me into your family. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.”


HALLELUJAH!! Thank You Jesus! OK LOVES! Congrats!! NOW You Know that You KNOW Where and with Whom You will spend Eternity!! In Heaven with Me and the rest of our Divine-Soul-Saved Family!! Feel free to Email me @ wincty@aol.com so We can CELEBRATE the NEW Born-Again You and the Awesome Divine Swag (God's Favour & Promises) coming Your way from Yahweh! Oh Loves, Get Ready!! So Much PEACE & JOY & LOVE is gonna rock your world! 😇

**Holy Spirit Request**: Please make sure to SHARE the Prayer of Salvation with Your Family & Friends!! We need Everyone to Know Jesus as their Lord & Saviour and to ensure their Soul Salvation!!

"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." (John 3:16, NKJV)






Family, Holy Spirit (My Divine DJ), woke me this morning with *This Song* on replay in my mind. So guess He wants IT posted with His Message to Us Today!! Let the Simple yet POWERFUL Words of Promise & Truth Sink Deep In Your Soul!






P.S. If you want to chat about "Getting Into His Word" and "How to Read/Study Your Bible", shoot me an email. Cuz this is One of the Wonderfully Magnificent Ways our Father God will begin to speak to You.....through His Mighty Word.......from His Heart to Your Heart!! 


Continued Success & Abundant Blessings!

"ALL THE THINGS GOD IS DOING WHEN IT LOOKS LIKE HE IS DOING NOTHING"

Happy Blessed Wednesday Family,

Well Loves. Did you check out the Title for Today's Mona Girl Blog? What a Mouthful Right?

But It speaks to Exactly what Today's Message is ALL about. Holy Spirit dropped this Pure Word of Truth in my lap couple days ago via one of my Earth Angels and fellow Divine Scribes. (Thanks Shellie!) 

The Title is self explanatory, it's penned through Stephen Altrogge and It's A Right On Time God Word for the Way We're Living Life Right Now!

So I'm gonna move out the way so you can Get Your Read On......

Click Here: ALL THE THINGS GOD IS DOING WHEN IT LOOKS LIKE HE IS DOING NOTHING

Well, Whad'ya Think?! God Stuff, Right?! Whewee! On the other side of that Mighty Read, I felt humbled when I realized my Pride at times gets in the way of Letting God Be God in my life! I felt a soothing balm of REST overtake my heart. I felt Daddy God's PEACE "which passeth All understanding" (Philippians 4:7) touch me deep down in my soul.

Family, The *Big Revelation* Holy Spirit whispered to me was that When It Looks Like God Is Doing Nothing, this is actually OUR Real Time Opportunity to STAND STRONG IN FAITH; to not focus on how big our problem/situation/challenge/circumstance is but how BIG our God IS; to not  run from God but to God; to begin or continue to PRAISE HIM in advance for the Miracles and Blessings that are On The Way; to continue to Speak Life into Our Lives and the Lives of Others; to continue to be His Real Life Witness to how much He cares for & loves Us; to continue to be a Living Breathing Testimony to Others of His Goodness, Faithfulness and His "I Will Never Leave You or Forsake You"  (Hebrews 13:5) Promise!!

Remember Loves, *FAITH IS ACTIVE*.  FAITH is a Verb, It requires Action! So when we continue to Keep Our Eyes Fixed Like Flint on God and Hold Tightly to His Hand, when we continue to Speak His Words of Encouragement and Support to Others, when we continue to *Fearlessly* tell Anyone & Everyone about Our Wonderful King Jesus despite what We See or Don't See .........that's the time When It Looks Like God Is Doing Nothing, that We Are Doing Something!  We are Letting Go and Letting God! We are Living Our FAITH!!

"Now FAITH is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen."(Hebrews 11:1, NKJV, emphasis mine)

And now I can say from first-hand experience, and with a Holy Hi-Five Confirmation from this God Word through Mr. Altrogge......OUR DADDY GOD IS ALWAYS UP TO SOMETHING even When It Looks Like God Is Doing Nothing!!

"Yes indeed, it won't be long now." God's Decree.
"Things are going to happen so fast your head will swim, one thing fast on the heels of the other.  You won't be able to keep up.  Everything will be happening at once - and everywhere you look, blessings! Blessings like wine pouring off the mountains and hills." (Amos 9:13, MSG)


So Loves let's Wait on the Lord. Let's Trust the Lord.  Let's be Patient with the Lord.  Let's Allow El Emunah (Our Faithful God) to Divinely Dot the I's and Magnificently Cross the T's so when Our Sovereign Lord, In His Impeccably Perfect Timing, Shows Up and Shows Out in Our Lives....We Will See in Real Time.....ALL THE THINGS GOD IS DOING WHEN IT LOOKS LIKE HE IS DOING NOTHING!! 



Continued Success & Abundant Blessings!
