So we gather together as Holy Women at Retreat just outside Franschoek on a cold winter's evening and get inspired by Spirit-filled worship. The place was already packed with expectant hearts and I heard the Lord say so clearly: these were hand-picked to be here. We are challenged to mix with people we don't know and get to know the riches in the saints. You won't find that out if you only stick to the people you like...
The essence of life: the pure, undefiled, "organic" kind of life, a life far removed from the "processed" ways of the world. A God kind of life. This kind of life is what He wants us to partake of. A life free from self-preservation, self-will, fear and inhibitions. He is the author of of our faith. He only responds to our faith and therefore we need to only act with what He shows us, in faith.
God wants us to dream. Because we have a sanctified imagination. And therefore He works with our desires to will His will in the end. So we are never forced to do anything. Rather, we are so overcome by His grace and a sense of never ending possibilities that whatever he puts in our hearts, we simply respond to it. So we were encourage to dream. Write it down! Pray. Don't limit Him. Dream big!
We were encourage to become generous listeners, so we can be generous performers of His will. To do, act upon His will. He has the obligation to hear us and respond when we pray His will, but in the same way we have the same obligation to respond to Him when He commands.
Then there was a word of prophecy sung: "God has put joy in your heart to enjoy this life with pleasure and happiness. He made His creation to enjoy in this life. Live out His joy!"
We prayed for probably 10 ladies who felt they are not enjoying life. Spirit of fear was rebuked and bound and people were set free. Thank You Jesus!
We thank The Lord for our leaders and teachers of the Word who were obedient to His calling: Prophet Nola Pelser, Yvette Pelser.
