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

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 Voices had been shut off, and the love of God had been replaced by theology.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

Resting In God

what is rest..?Do we know the true meaning Of the word? How do we find rest in a world full of activities, distractions, and goals? This was my devotion a few weeks ago. “Come with me by yourself to a quiet place and get some rest” Mark 6:31 To get the rest we so much need we ought to disciple ourselves and just learn how to do it. Give yourself the time for just you and God. Not studying or researching something. Just sitting quietly allowing Yourself to be wrapped in His presence. Go out and take a quiet walk. Nowadays we don’t know how is done. Is as much as a requirement to learn how to REST IN HIM. So many of us are multi-task, We could cook, clean, and do laundry all at the same time, and the enemy uses our abilities to keep us busy, occupied, distracted, and eventually burn out. God is looking for our 100% not our 25% The enemy would even keep us busy with our ministries, jobs, calendars, and agendas. He would use everything for his gain and eventually, he would have the upper hand with us. We need to go against our flesh. Healing our wounded hearts and our emotions. Recognize the enemy's new strategy ways; a mental attack that would become mental unrest. So today, take time away from everyone and everything and allow yourself some rest. Take a stroll by the beach or the park. Sit quietly by the porch and let the birds sing to you. Recharge your body your mind and your souls. Rest: cease work or movement to relax, refresh oneself, or recover strength. Relax, ease up/off Today let your soul find rest in The Lord. Rest: Having the confidence that God would do what He said He would do. For we serve a God who doesn’t lie. Numbers 23:19 “Though it lingers wait for it: it will certainly come and will not delay”. Habb 2:3 Today take time to rest in him. May 2020

Save by His Grace

He save me when I couldn’t save myself. He was there with me all along. I was never alone because in my loneliness, my hurts, and my disappointment he was there with me. “All the days ordained for me were writing in your book before one of them came to be” Psalm 139:16 The enemy knew that. For he was watching. Waiting for the most appropriate time to strike and bring me down. The same day I got baptized in the spirit was the same night my innocence was stolen. After that, my life was forever changed. I became rude, prideful, and arrogant. Manipulative and a liar. I found solace in drinking and smoking. And yet inside of me, I had this void. This emptiness. I knew that something was wrong but no one took the time to lead me or show me. Until I was found by him. Until I heard the ultimatum. Yale, mental illness or the Morgue. Because even in my darkest hours He was there to save me. “In my distress, I called to the Lord and he answered me. From the depth of the grave, I called out for help and he listen to my cry. When my life was ebbing away I remember you, Lord and my prayer rose to you, to your holy temple.” Jonah 2:2, 7. The Lord didn't wait for me to get better to get clean or get my life in order. His mighty hand reach out and picked me up. He lifted me from the mud and mire He put a new song in my heart. A new sound in my lips. He held me, and carry me when I couldn't move. He walked beside me at my pace. The Lord didn't rush me. He allowed me to see, to understand that true healing takes time. I didn't get where I had ended up overnight, I have the rest of my life to get well. Spiritual, physical, and mentally. What I had learned over these years I give out. The Lord save me; for me to save others. “You are to help your brothers (sisters) until the Lord gives them rest, as he has done for you.” Joshua 1:15 What he did in my life he would do it again in yours if you give him a chance. We have tried everything why not try Jesus? 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
