3 Person in One

- Servant Heart - Busy Bee -
Tag Along Lord help us to identify those that you want us to do life with. As we get closer to the New season help us to see with a clear vision. Hear with an open heart, and walk with a steady step. There are times when I see more than what I am ready to see. I see their motives, the tricks, the old self, their habits, the fear, and insecurities. How the natural man is entangled, how the flesh comes and takes over. The time has come to move forward. To take the steps of faith. Leaving old self behind. We can no longer live on yesterday's manna. We can not carry the new wine on old wineskin. You are calling us higher. For greater things like this, we would do. Let us not be so busy running from here to there, like busy bees; that we take for granted the lesson we ought to learn. Let me look inside my own heart and expose what lay there dormant. Waiting for the right time to be awakened. Let me do a self-inventory and check my own motives. I am going after my own personal interest? Show me, Lord. Don't let me go where I am not ready to be. If you don't go with me I will not go. Don't let me go where my anointing won't keep. Don't let me go ahead of yourself. I need to stay faithful available and teachable (FAT)I am a daughter. I have an inheritance to claim. As I daughter I do things differently, for I go after my father's interest. Learning to serve without hiding motives. I am not serving man but God. Thank you, Lord. For you do not keep me in the shadows. You speak to my soul. You teaching me the language of the heart. Thank you for showing the 3 types of people I need to be aware of. Thank you for this word is for me 1st, then to share so others can look and see. Love you, Lord. Ivette Diaz-Yee 11/25/23

In The Palm of His Hand

Heavenly Father, I come before You today, seeking Your protection and strength. You are her refuge and fortress, our God, in whom we trust. I ask that You surround her with Your loving presence and cast out all fear from her heart. Fill her with Your peace that surpasses all understanding, even in the midst of this storm. Lord, I pray for courage to stand firm and to seek the help she need. Give her the wisdom to make the right decisions and the strength to follow through, even when she feel afraid. Help her to see her self as You see her, worthy of love, respect, and safety. Protect her from harm and guide her to safe spaces and supportive people who can help her. Break the chains of abuse and violence, and let Your light shine in the darkness. I ask that You deliver her from this situation and heal her heart, mind, and body from the wounds inflicted upon her. May Your angels watch over her and may Your Holy Spirit comfort her. I declare that fear has no place in her life, for You have not given her a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen. Ruth 8/12/24 https://victimconnect.org "See I have engrave You on the palms of my Hands". Isaiah 46:16

Trust Me

I still remember the words my husband said as we drove around a late Sunday afternoon. “Do you trust God?” His tone was scary and firm, I knew something was going to happen and changed our lives forever. I said “If He is allowed to happen, He would see us through”. Was what I said, holding my breath and expecting his answer. The landlord is selling the house. We have 30-60 days to moved out. I stood silence for what it seems a long time. For the last few months I had asked if he was going to take advantage of the market and sell his property.  We had been there for 12 years. No it was his answer, every time I asked. We had pushed ourselves to paid off my new car. Since I had been driving ugly Betty a 27 year old Oldsmobile. Which literally was breaking on me. We only had one month to pay it off. My husband had always wanted a new truck so before we made the purchase, once again I had gone to the landlord and asked “Are you selling” No you would be the 1st to know. We went and purchased (finance) his new truck. A month later right before Mother’s Day I was told by my husband that we had to moved out. I felt my whole world coming to and end, how we would do this? Do we have the savings to pull this through? Are we going to be able to find a house in  this market? So many questions. I felt numb. Frozen. I could feel fear, anxiety creeping in. As we prayed. We came up with a plan. The following Tuesday at my lady's group I told them what had taken place. To hear them giving me referrals,  connections. I also heard my own children’s telling us, you can’t pack and move in 30 days, you’re crazy if you think that is going to be possible. Get ready for be taken advantage,  the market is hot. Be ready for a bidding war. You are going to over paid. The next day I had a medical appointment in which due to my level of anxiety my doctor recommended for me to see a psychiatrist and even putting me on medication. Which I refused. All I heard was Crazy. Every one was throwing that word at me. Little that they know. I had been fighting the system for 20 years. Due to my family lineage, mental illness run deep in my family. One uncle committed suicide and another aunt is under medication and even been in mental institutions. My sister and niece they both had mental breakdowns. So when I heard psychiatrist all I heard is you are crazy. As I came home or what had been our place for the last 12 years I heard in my heart the Lord saying “I have your home all you have to do is find it “ and yet at the same time another voice whispering and laughing “yeah try to find a house in this market is like finding a needle in a haystack”. (The Lord speak to your heart the enemy whispers in your ear) I had to closed myself to everyone and everything around me. Working full time, trying to find a realtor every thing all happening at the same time. I felt like I was inside a tornado, all around me was spinning out off control. But God. He kept me under the wings of his protection. He send a pastor friend my way to hear me and to listen to my cry, my fears, my anxieties.  I walked out of her office. Ready to confront the storm. Next day I found a mortgage broker who put me in contact with a realtor. Few times during that week, I visited few homes, other times that an offer was taking place. One night after we finishing driving around looking a new listing, we made few changes on our “demands” (my husband) we not longer where looking for garage or 2nd bathroom. Once we let go of the wants the Lord provide for us the place we were to call home. As I am driving to see the house The Lord said “claim it for is yours” as I drove to the house I said that “this is it, do what ever you need to do to get it “ what happen if they increased the price ? Then it isn’t for me. Are you going to look around? “I don’t need to” I heard myself saying. For I know the Lord himself had picked the house for us. So far he has make a way for the landlord to give us 6k, something about he saving our percentage for the years we had lived at his place. That took place on Monday, Tuesday we had a phone call from our realtor, they had accepted our offer. The other buyers had pull back. By the Grace and mercy of God. The help from my core, we moved exactly 45 days later. The Lord provided for us. He said “it’s about time Ivette, this is the fruit of your faithfulness”. When we allowed God to work for us, we work less. In the economy that we are. We were able to purchase a house, at incredible price, get extra money so we could start our new life’s in our new home. We had consecrated to the Lord. My office had become the headquarters for my Intercesory prayers.  The Lord said  “Trust Me” and we had. We look at Gods economy not at world economy. The Lord provided for us and He would continue providing.  Thank you Lord for your faithfulness and your grace. Ivette Diaz-Yee June 23, 2021

Hopelessness

definition: having no expectation of good or success, despair, feeling hopeless and alone.
Suicide is selfish for only thinking of self, it focuses on the past. Highlights the mistakes made. The regrets. The what ifs of life. Compares ours now with others around us. It makes us think it’s the easy way out. It's the way we try to put an end to a life lived in agony, despair, shame, and guilt. It plays with our minds and makes them seem that is the only way. The pain we carry is so heavy, it has taken our will to live. We are tired of trying. Over and over we enter the hamster wheel to end up in the same place. How do we get here? We ask, over and over. We rationalize the lies we had believed. “It will be better without me, one less problem for the family. Life for them will be better if I am out of the way”. Those were the words I heard that night, as I looked into the mirror and I saw death looking right back at me. Whispering to take the blade and cut my veins. Shame had robbed me, addiction had me bound. I didn't have the strength. I had tried to stop many times. Moved away, but in reality, all I had done was changed my zip code. Little did I know, I was full of hurt, abandonment, and unforgiveness. That night I was saved by my daughter knocking down the door from the bathroom. I do remember taking the blade and going directly to my veins, but I don't remember anything else. To find out years later, The Lord had an angel holding my hand. I was selfish. I was just thinking of myself. I was hopeless. I was lost. This is the 1st time I share this deep personal experience hope it helps someone else. You are not alone. You have a community to help you just reach out. In your agony cry out for HELP to the one that could hear you and heal you. “In my distress, I called to the Lord, and He answered me. From the depths of my grave, I called for help and you listened to my cry”. Jonah 2:2 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 Ivette 6/19/23

The Compass

Isaiah 30:21 “whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you saying, this is the way; walk in it “ COMPASS- an instrument containing a magnetized pointer which shows the direction of a magnetic north.
Today as I sit and ponder at what’s going on around me I get to see glimpses of a storm raging around us. It has lasted so long. Everything is dark. Fogs as blinded our vision. The winds of incentives pushes us towards the wall. Loosing grasp and footing I try to move forward. But I can’t. I feel my body given up; I am getting tire, I feel my body loosing hope. I don’t have the strength I need to move forward, but I also know I can’t stay stocked where I am. I hear many voices. Every one has a voice, something to say, something to add. Distractions has move us away from our path. And yet in the mist of the storm I hear a voice telling me what to do. It comes from deep inside my souls. Letting me know that I have the tools needed. “Find your compass” I reach inside and there it is. For a short time I had forgotten. I had gotten used to carrying around, knowing what I am going. But as darkness covers the earth, I need to keep my eyes closer to the compass. Today I know that God is my compass. “For when you go thru the waters they would not swipe you away when you go thru the fires you won’t get burn for the Lord himself goes with you“ (Isaiah 43) He would alway point North. And went we stand and raised our eyes upward he is there to lead us. “Your ears would hear a voice”, means that He is closed at hand. In order to hear closer to your ear means that we are very closed in contact. So closed that He whispers “this is the way; walk in it.” And yet the noises of the world. The distractions. The ups and downs and disappointments don’t allow us to find the way. Today as I sit here looking at the world around me I am confident to know God is my compass. No matter what’s taking place around me. I served a God that doesn’t lie. (Numbers) and I had learned to take him at His word. (Matthew) No matter how difficult get out there. You where raise for this times. (Esther) if you are reading this post you are part of the remnants. (Ezra) Hold on to your compass and don’t let go. The times is near. The time is now. Love you all, don’t loose grasp of what you have accomplished, and where you stand today. Ivette Dias-Yee #wordinspire S❤️BG 2/5/21

Conviction (Finishing Strong)

Conviction A firmly held belief or opinion. Views Thoughts Strong beliefs ( Article) of faith It drive your behavior and actions in every decision involving right and wrong. Conviction would put a stop to a wrong doing if we allow conviction to guides us; it will become our personal internal warning sign, exposing danger, magnifying manipulation, deception and lies. As believers, convictions lives inside of us. for me Conviction is vital part of the Holy Spirit in me, living within me and tru me. It had changed me and help me to become the woman that I am today. It truly exposes the motive of the heart. It had stop me from making the wrong decisions or spoken the wrong word. In these days and hours that we live, we need to allow the conviction to be our compass, always directing us upward to the Father in Heaven. “But when he the spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all truth” John 16:13 S❤️BG 2022

Pillars of The Church

In the beginning was God and God was with us. The foundation lies where He was the founder. The one, the only. But then.... that’s when things and situations started to come in and they shifted their attention to the foundation, and then; they became the founding ones. The ones who stood in the mist. Slow fade. Without notice almost as in invincible hand was playing and switching things around. Man became prideful, arrogance lead then and ego took over. “Don’t look at me they claim, and yet they love the acclamation off the people. People waited patently for the word that he man would bring. Not knowing that God has been trying to speak in so many ways. Voices had been shut off, and the love of God had been replaced by theology. Fear of God had become fear of man. Smoke and light had also replaced the anointing. We keep an eye on the clock in order not to go over time. The building stands tall and crowded. But the pillars that once held the structures are becoming feeble. Our Lord is calling. But are we listening? “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge” Hosea 4:6 Ivette Diaz-Yee

#20th

Come seat with me at Our table #20 = complete, perfect waiting period Balance; mind, body, spirit Peace and tranquillity It’s a number of move 20 represents Redemption- deliverance from what ever it’s holding you back. It’s maintain faith and patience as your desires and wishes are being fulfilled. 20 years ago I walk thru the back door of TCPA for what I thought would be 6 months rehabilitation. Little that I know the Lord was going to used that place to changed me, transformed me and make me new. I pray two powerful prayer that day: -don’t let me leave this place the way I came in” -help me from myself. My job had sent me away on a leave of absence, and I had 6 months to get better and come back. But the Lord had a different plan for me. Weeks before coming in I had been diagnose with mental illness, schizophrenia, and addiction behavior. I was told I needed to go in to medication and because mental illness was in my family line I was destined to have it too. It’s genetic. It’s in you. But I refused to believe it. In the mist off all that was taking place around me The Lord showed me where I was going, if I didn’t make a move. Jail, mental institutions or morgue. I refused all. And arrange to come into a place where I could help myself, not just for me but in order to help my kids I needed to get my act together. I had to give legal rights to my sister over my youngest child. In order to work with me and become who I am today. I had to make a lot off sacrifices. Moved away, leave behind what was familiar. This year we I am celebrating 20 years off freedom, healing and restoration. It’s hasn’t been easy but it has been worth it. Today you are witnessing the power of God in my life. He did It for me. He would do it for you. Just give him a try. We had tried everything why not Jesus? You are walking the most difficult steps right now. Time has come for you to slow down , look inside and allow God to change you. It is not a coincidence but a divine appointment from the Lord himself, that you are reading this post. Today I celebrate you and the work you will allowed God to do in you and thru you. “The Good of God in Me, Overshadows the Wrong I Had Done” For His glory. For His Honor. “ Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” John 8:12 Ivette Diaz-Yee S❤️‍🩹BG #20 #mytestimony #redeem #freedomfromdarkness

Healing Comes Out Of Chaos


  “Healing Comes Out Of Chaos”


In 2 Chronicles 7:14  The Lord gave us a mandate. “ if my people” talks about us. 

I wrote a devotional few weeks ago which talks about if my people would really humble and really seek the Lord. 

and today  he brings the same devotion, but in a different perspective. 

Through this pandemic we have learned how to truly and honestly humble ourselves truly repent from our inner self and expose the heart. We have learned how to repent from our indifference and our attitude that “it doesn’t concern me, it has nothing to do with me”kind off respond. 

The Lord has used the riots to expose the heart of a nation and his people.

God is using what came to divide us what had brought chaos and mayhem for good; his  people are coming out of hiding like Gideon and they had taken their rightful position and standing in the gab. 

The Lord uses the riots to expose the heart of our nation.  As we continue seeking him fighting in prayer he direct our steps. 

A house divided will not stand so we go together hundreds off us, in prayer, repentance and humility and seek God for answers. 

We don’t know what to do  but our eyesight are upon him. His righteousness hand will deliver us and save us. 

Not because we are better than anybody else but because the love that he has for us , because of his grace  and because of his  great mercy we are  not consume , for his mercy is renew every morning. 

He said to put our house in order and we are trying; it would  take years but we are making the efforts exposing the plans of the enemy and making changes. 

The Lord himself will bring the victory he had  reserved those whose knees has not bow down to the Baal of this world.  (1 King 19:18) they had not allowed fear and intimidation to bend them down. 

He has heard our prayers and seeing our tears he will healed us. (2 King 20:5b)

He will give us rest in the years to come. 

It won’t be without a fight it and won’t be easy either , but it will be worth it. 

America has been awaken, the sleeping beauty has been raised up from her slumber. Eyes had been open. Everything has been exposed , secret has been revealed and God will restore us back to our former glory. 

And yes the Lord uses ordinary men and women’s ; dislike people and hated people to fight for us God’s people. 

The word of God said  “But God  chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise God chose the wicked things of the world to shame the strong and he chose  the lowly things of this world and the despised things and the things that are not to nullify the things they are so that no one may boast before him” 1 Corth 1:27

As I said before everything would happen and it would take place according to heavens agenda. Today we are fighting for the souls of our nation. For our freedom our healing and our restoration. And it would come , but not without a fight. Together we stand. Divide we are weak.  Preservation in the mist of chaos. By Gods grace and goodness He will give us the victory. This is all distractions and smoke screen. Open your eyes.
