Lynda’s Journal<\/h3>\n

by Lynda McKinney Lambert<\/h3>\n

August 30, 2024<\/h3>\n

<\/h3>\n

<\/h3>\n

Topic:\u00a0 “It’s About Time”<\/em><\/h3>\n

I am enjoying a wonderful day \u2013 I have resolved to not look at a clock today, and to keep my mind on God\u2019s presence, and focused on His GLORY.<\/p>\n

How to do\u00a0 this:<\/p>\n

I read a chapter in the wonderful book by Felix Halpern who is , a Messianic Rabbi, who wrote<\/p>\n

<\/em>Living With Heaven\u2019s Glory Mindset<\/em><\/p>\n

I read this one chapter at a time, and I usually read the chapter at least twice before I move on. After each chapter, there is an assignment that is given to make the chapter personal and to put into action the lessons of that chapter.\u00a0 The author gives\u00a0 five steps to begin living with a Davidic mindset.<\/p>\n

Rabbi Halpern\u00a0 takes readers back to the scene where\u00a0 King David and his men are taking the ARK of the Covenant back to Jerusalem. This sacred object had been taken by the Philistines, so long ago, the Israelites\u00a0 could barely\u00a0 remember it. It was returned to the Israelites because of the strange things that happened to the people who stole it. They anted to get rid of this object and it’s an interesting story from ancient Israel.<\/p>\n

The story of what happened when the Philistines placed the ark in a temple they had dedicated to a demonic god is hilarious. Yet, it sobering at the same time.\u00a0 It was\u00a0 so good to read this chapter\u00a0 today, and to know that God always turns things around and the things that our enemies take from us, will be returned in God’s timing.<\/p>\n

I think the\u00a0 beautiful thing is that there are consequences that are so apparent when our enemies\u00a0 try to take away our faith in God.<\/p>\n

This chapter gives 5 steps to learning how to live a Davidic lifestyle and assignments to think about and apply to my own life today. What a way to begin my day! It is glorious to see how God has never changed over the expanse of time from King David’s world\u00a0 to today\u2019s news reports.<\/p>\n

Watch a Video\u00a0\u00a0<\/a> interview with Felix Halpern. – It’s supernatural!<\/p>\n

Final thoughts:<\/h4>\n

I had another revelation today as I was\u00a0 outside watering my flower gardens. It’s been very hot and we’ve had no rain for at least a week.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve been thinking all summer that I want a sign for my flower garden. I\u2019ve thought of many possibilities, but nothing seemed just right. Well, last evening, it came to me what I want my gardens to reflect to all who drive by and see them. My sign will say \u2013\u00a0 “Shalom\u201d which means wholeness and completion.<\/p>\n

The reference I found described Shalom as \u201cwholeness, completeness<\/p>\n

The ancient Hebrew concept of peace, rooted in the word \u201cshalom,\u201d meant wholeness, completeness, soundness, health, safety and prosperity<\/strong>, carrying with it the implication of permanence.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

*<\/strong><\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

Blessings are<\/h2>\n

Aways<\/h2>\n

in my NEWS!<\/h2>\n

I often receive\u00a0 \u201cblessings\u201d in my mail box, my telephone, or the computer.<\/p>\n

They come in a variety of ways.<\/p>\n

Some are financial blessings that I did not know were coming to me.<\/p>\n

I receive awards and sales, for my books, writings and artworks.<\/p>\n

Some days I am invited out to lunch, or simply to go for a walk in the park with a friend.<\/p>\n

Blessings come to us all the time if we are open to them.<\/p>\n

Tell me about your own blessings and what has come to you recently as an unexpected blessing?<\/p>\n

She learned at an early age about the wonders of nature growing up in rural western Pennsylvania.<\/p>\n

“My father was a gardener, and many of my writings reflect childhood experiences that have stayed with me. Poems in this collection were gleaned from my memories over the decades and from the gardens I tend now. My hope is that you also will find some small pleasures in my little poems.”<\/p>\n

My Mission Statement:<\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n

I reveal what is lost, forgotten, and\u00a0 unseen.<\/p>\n

Inspirations for my\u00a0 art and writing comes from my personal faith in Jesus Christ, and the revelations I receive through reading the Bible, and prayer.<\/p>\n

Hebrews 11:1<\/p>\n

\u201cNow faith is the substance of things hoped for,\u00a0 the evidence of things not seen.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

You can always send me a private prayer request. I will pray for you.<\/p>\n

Write: Prayer Request in the subject line so that I see it quickly.\u00a0 I pray every day for those who send me a request and it is kept\u00a0 private.<\/p>\n
