A SWEET PLEASING AROMA!

But thanks be to God, who always leads us as captives in Christ’s triumphal procession and uses us to spread the aroma of the knowledge of Him everywhere. ~ 2 Corinthians 2:14
For we are to God the pleasing aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing. ~ 2 Corinthians 2:15

Dear LORD,

May my life be a sweet aroma pleasing to You!

Yes my Lord, my earnest desire is to love You more and please You more. The life I live, I live for You! I am eager for Your Return. I am eager to hug You and kiss You. In the meantime I will serve You and love others the way You want me to love them.

As long as I am near to You, You will keep my heart and motives pure and holy, a pleasing aroma to You, my Lord. I want to continue in Your Love so I can be fruitful for You, my Lord, and I will see the harvest in the land of the living. I will see much fruit that will be multiplied by You.

It is time, my dear Lord, to see people turning their hearts toward You, the Giver of all good things. You just want to love us and bless us. What a Great Father, You are!

Once again, my Lord, may I be a sweet aroma to You. It is all I want.

I love You with all my heart, mind, soul and strength.

Your loving daughter,

Guadalupe

SOUND THE ALARM

The Holy Spirit planted a thought in my head at 3:20 a.m., this morning! 🙌 As I turned to my side in bed, half asleep, He said: "Sound the alarm." Now, you are probably thinking, "Guadalupe, just lost all her marbles!" ha, ha. Some of you already know that the Holy Spirit speaks to us, as it says in John 16:13, "But when He, the Spirit of truth, comes, He will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; He will speak only what He hears, and He will tell you what is yet to come." Or if you have read Chapter Four of my book, "The Gift of His Holy Spirit," you know that He is the third Person of the Trinity and God still speaks to us through His Word and in many other ways, maybe not an audible voice but in our minds and hearts.
I know it was 3:20 a.m., because when God's Spirit gives me a word or a message I make sure to look at the clock to see what time it is and I also write the exact words on my iPhone so I won't forget them. Then He said, "Isaiah 3:20" so I looked at the passage on my phone and it didn't make that much sense but the entire Chapter does. Isaiah 3:20 says, "the headdresses and anklets and sashes, the perfume bottles and charms," But the heading at the beginning of Chapter 3 says, "Judgment on Jerusalem and Judah," which is not very pleasant, but thanks to God it is followed by a wonderful and uplifting Chapter 4!
As soon as I woke up I did a search on my Bible on the words, "sound the alarm" and this is what I found: Joel 2:1, "Blow the trumpet in Zion; sound the alarm on my holy hill. Let all who live in the land tremble, for the day of the Lord is coming. It is close at hand—"
Of course we don't know the day or the hour when Jesus, our Messiah, will return, but Jesus told us to be ready and to be prepared. Jesus said, in Mathew 24:42-44, "Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come. But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him."
This is not a reason to be afraid. Every believer is looking forward to His wonderful return, but we also need to share with those who do not know the Bible what is yet to come. Let's "sound the alarm" and tell them how to be ready and prepared for Jesus' marvelous return!!! 🙏❤️
If any of you have any insight on what I just wrote in this post, please feel free to share in the comments. All I'm sharing is what I heard in my thoughts this morning and what I found in the Bible regarding these words. Thank you and God bless!

MY LETTER TO GOD ~ 1/1/20

January 1, 2020
My Daddy, my Loving Abba Father,
Anoint my pen, my hand, my mind, and my heart to write this prayer to You, my Lord and King!
First of all, thank you, thank you, thank you for all You have done for me. For giving me Your sweet life, your grace, mercy, unconditional love and so many spiritual gifts. Your love and care amazes me. I always want to live in the wonder and awe of who You are! Getting to know who You really are is the best thing in my life.  So much that the things of this world and the people I love on this earth do not compare at all with the great love I have for You! You are number One in my life and my heart yearns to be in Your Presence, to feel Your loving arms around me, to feel the warmth and radiance of Your smile Jesus, what a glorious day it will be!
Lord, the day of my wedding, the birth of my two sons, breathtaking vacations come short to that glorious day when You will crown me with Your amazing love and will dress me in white! Waiting for the Wedding of the Lamb with You, my precious Jesus.
Today, the first day of 2020 I want You, more of You, to love You more and more each day! Of course I also want Your favor, Your blessings, Your care and protection, Your anointing but whatever You bring to me, I will love You, no matter what because the life I live is for You, my Lord, to do Your will and to bring You glory.
I’m not even scared of death because for us believers in Your Son Jesus, death is not the end, it is only a perfect beginning to Eternal Life with You.  Death is actually the end of evil and pain in this tainted world with sin. What a contrast with all the beauty that awaits every one of Your children. Free from pain, disease, evil and sin. Hallelujah!!!
For me to live is Christ (You, my Savior) and to die is gain. O, how we miss this great truth! The end of this life is only the beginning to a glorious life.
Abba Father, glorious Lord, I LOVE YOU WITH ALL MY HEART!!! Just say the word and I will follow You…
Your daughter who adores You,
Guadalupe
