23.01.2022 The power of the Holy Spirit

23.01.2022 A word for California a word for the bride

19.01.2022 Ponderings by Kath Targett: Matthew 22:37 I was spending today fasting and seeking the Lord about some things I have on my heart. One thing in particular I was talking with God about is a certain area of my life where I just feel like I haven’t seen the victory in yet and I feel as it is keeping me at a distance of my relationship with Him and also the body of Christ. I was chatting to God about how I sometimes struggle to really engage with the Lord and participate when fe...llowshipping, worshipping and hearing a message. I find my mind wandering and focusing on everything I need to get done, stressing about it and before I know it church is over and I feel I’ve learnt nothing. I find this really frustrating and discouraging and I feel as if I’m just missing out on what The Lord is saying to me because my focus is somewhere else. God has pointed out to me the real truth is I’ve been lazy. When my mind has started to wander I would just go along with it. I don’t stand my ground, I forget He is my first love. I don’t love Him with my whole heart, soul and mind I just go along for the ride so to speak. I spoke with Pastor Julie in regards to this and her response is to just focus my everything on worshiping Jesus and wanting to be there for Him and have no other agenda. So as I was speaking to the Lord today I was repenting of this and as I was praying I felt like God was speaking to me about what repentance looks like. It’s not about doing a 360 but rather a 180 which looks like walking away from that sin. When I was asking the Lord what that looks like He reminded me of something Pastor Julie has said to me on several occasions when I’m just feeling yuck. She says to preach to myself the opposite of what I’m feeling. As God brought some of these pearls back to my remembrance today and I put them into practice I felt really encouraged for several reasons. God, my Father, actually genuinely cares and listens and He knows how to make me feel genuinely loved by Him. It makes me feel so special and honoured how He actually spends time sitting with me directing me and guiding me gently. He never says I told you so Just I LOVE YOU and I’m here to help you! He is just so loving and there is never any condemnation in Him. It’s seriously the best thing in the world! I’m encouraged to have a Pastor who doesn’t discourage me or put me down rather someone who actually takes the time to encourage me and always directs me back to The Lord and The Word of God. Again no condemnation but love and support. Repentance doesn’t actually have to be an awful thing we walk out alone. I believe God truely loves to help, guide and support us. We are not meant to go to God all cleaned up and perfect we go to Him because we know we are not perfect and we need a saviour. His love is the greatest gift of all!! See more

14.01.2022 Ponderings by Kath Targett... I have been sitting with the question over the last week for myself something Pastor Julie said to me around the time I met her in a testimony about when she was finding the real God. It was something like Jesus, do I even like Him, I don’t really know Him. This morning I opened up to Luke 23:13-25 where the crowd has Barabbas released and has Jesus sent to be crucified. As I was reading I was encouraged even more of who the person Jesus is. He... had done nothing wrong absolutely nothing and here a crowd of people were shouting against Him to be replaced by a murderer. When I asked the Lord Why did He do it, I felt his response was because of how much I love my children. I have heard this story so many times but today it has a whole new meaning behind it. There are so many people I know battling battles that are just not fair and Jesus really does get it. He went through it all and He stood and walked it out for us, His children, because that is how much He loves us! I was also challenged by my response, would I be standing there in courage with John the beloved or would I be triggered running away from it all? What does that look like now, day to day? There is a real peace in knowing and understanding we are not alone. Jesus gets it He walked it and set the most amazing example. Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Hebrews 12:1-2 Through every single battle we face we can keep our eyes on Jesus knowing and and trusting He actually gets it and understands the pain. He will never leave us nor forsake us. Hebrews 13:5 See more

13.01.2022 Ponderings by Kath Targett I was seeking the Lord this morning and I opened up to Matthew 14:6-12 NKJV But when Herod’s birthday was celebrated, the daughter ...of Herodias danced before them and pleased Herod. Therefore he promised with an oath to give her whatever she might ask. So she, having been prompted by her mother, said, Give me John the Baptist’s head here on a platter. And the king was sorry; nevertheless, because of the oaths and because of those who sat with him, he commanded it to be given to her. So he sent and had John beheaded in prison. And his head was brought on a platter and given to the girl, and she brought it to her mother. Then his disciples came and took away the body and buried it, and went and told Jesus. I used to avoid reading stories like this in the bible simply because I found it to gruesome. I didn’t understand how there could be a message in a story like this. When I opened up to this, this morning I was very interested in what the Lord was saying. Here a man who from before birth had an impact on many peoples lives now dead due to treachery, deception and betrayal. As I continued to read, re read and pray into this I felt the Lord was saying words. Vs 7 therefore he promised with an oath to give her whatever she might ask. Vs 8 So she, having been prompted by her mother, said, Give me John the Baptist’s head here on a platter. Seriously this is pure evil! Herods own family deceived him with their very words which resulted in betrayal and death! I was challenged by this for myself in the conversations I have with people. As the saying goes think before you speak. There is actually great wisdom in that. I really need to be wise to listen and hear what people are saying to me before I respond so I don’t come into agreement with what they are saying if it’s evil and ungodly. If I do it could end very badly. My response needs to be one of real wisdom and clarity of the Lord no feeling pressured by the world around me. Deception and betrayal is real and it can happen from those close to us, even people that we claim as family. We need to listen to words be slow to speak and be using great wisdom and guidance from God in those we can trust and those we can’t. Just because someone says you can trust me doesn’t mean you can! We need to see the evidence, pray and discern. Wisdom and self control from the Lord is really important! See more

12.01.2022 Children and trauma #saveourchildren

04.01.2022 Who remembers the match box cars of our childhood? They were invincible back in the 60,s - 90’s when my children had finished playing with them they were hand...ed on and are somewhere with the grandchildren the third generation to play with them! Well Matchbox have not gone with the skull and roses and other such dark themes as hot wheels have...I went shopping for our children’s ministry and found this pictured below! Dragon slayer petrol! The Holy Spirit is the greatest deliverer! Are you full of Dragon Slaying Fuel? You may seem only a small insignificant vehicle but believe me we carry the Dragon Slaying Fuel just like David we can say who is this uncircumcised Philistine that would defy the Armies of the living God! Just remember one can rout 1000 two 10,000! Can I hear an amen to that! See more

03.01.2022 Gods heart displayed in adversity!

02.01.2022 Forgiveness is giving up the hope that the past could be any different.... Oprah Winfrey ...it is accepting that it has happened to you, not accepting that it was ok...it is letting go so that the past does not hold you prisoner... TDJakes (on Oprah Winfrey show) Forgiveness does not exonerate the perpetrator, it does not justify their behaviour, forgiveness is a gift you give yourself...

01.01.2022 Please read the rest of Amos chapter 6 it is really relevant but my phone decided it was about to shut down so had to end this....
