Spring has finally arrived and we are fast approaching the 2013 Family Freedom Walk on Saturday, May 11^th.  Last year the Lord brought in over $61,000 which absolutely stunned us.  We would like to invite you to be a part of what God does this year through the walk.  If you can join us that day, call today to register and start getting sponsors (732.350.1187). If you can’t walk with us, please consider being a sponsor.  All the net proceeds go to support the Addiction Recovery Ministries to help restore lives, marriages and families from the devastation of addiction. 

This year our staff is having a friendly competition between the men and the women so it would be great if all our Victory Call readers would sponsor the women’s team for $25.00 but even $5 or $10 will make a difference. This link will take you directly to our webpage if you would give on-line.   Family Freedom Walk Support  or if you prefer you may mail a check to America’s Keswick 601 Route 530 Whiting, NJ 08759 in either case please designate your gift to FFW: Women’s team.

Thank you so much for your support. We appreciate you. 

Blessings,

The Victory Call writers

Ps. 138:7-8 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, You will revive me; You will stretch out Your hand Against the wrath of my enemies, And Your right hand will save me.  The Lord will perfect that which concerns me; Your mercy, O Lord, endures forever; Do not forsake the works of Your hands. (NKJ)

In this Psalm the Lord is making clear that He can perfect what concerns me.  He will stretch out His hand against my enemies; it’s not my battle.  I can move forward in the work He has given me with confidence.  But will I apply that truth daily and really get past the worry to a place of peace?  Do I really believe the Lord can perfect what concerns me?  Can I move forward into what God has before me and not let the enemy distract or hinder me?  Am I willing to go through a narrow place and let God fill me with faith?

My questions have brought me to consider some things I want to share with you:

Before David could walk into his destiny he had to face and defeat Goliath by faith  (1 Sam. 17).   I must get out of the way by faith, so God can work through me and defeat my Goliath.

The Canaanite woman had to face the fear of going to the Lord who she knew had come for the Jews before she could see her daughter healed (Matt. 15:28). I must get past my fear of not being good enough for the Lord to hear my prayer.  I am never going to be good enough……but God’s mercy endures forever.  His promises are yes and amen.

The centurion understood authority and he had to humble himself and recognize the authority of Jesus before the Lord noted his great faith and healed his servant (Matt. 8:5-13).  I must understand who I am as the daughter of the King.  I am under His authority and must humble myself and let Him be God in all things.

Today I have made a choice to trust that the Lord is able to perfect what concerns me.  Here is my prayer.  I invite you to make it yours if you wish.

Dear Lord, I give You my REGRETS from the past.  I give You my INSECURITIES that keep me from boldly saying and doing what I need to do.  I give You the PLANS AND SCHEMES OF THE ENEMY of my soul that set me up for failure.  I give You my SELFISH ways, where everything is about me.  I give You MY THOUGHTS that wear me down. I declare You can perfect that which concerns me.  I invite you to mold me, and shape me so that by faith I will walk fully into the destiny You have prepared for me to the glory of your name.  In Jesus name I pray.
