A Daughter's Heart for Her Sister

Daddy my heart continues to be heavy as I see the news stories, the tweets, the facebook messages, the engine searches, and the constant coverage of the death of my soRHOr my sister... Sandra Bland. Daddy I look at the video and the hate for the officer continues to rise, the disappointment of being a woman rings in my mind, the frustration of being black and educated continues to overcome my heart; I think to myself  how can I forgive someone that took the life my sister, who took a simple moment of frustration as a moment for him to flex his authority. How can I allow this moment of history making, epic news be a moment for your glory without feeling some type of way that's not negative. Daddy my sister is dead. A woman full of purpose, life, and voice. Your Daughter is gone at the hands of a man or even  men who saw her as a problem, when you saw her as a solution. But what hurts the most Daddy I would have done the same thing. I would have cooperated but I would have told the officer that I know my rights and authority as well. I know the routine, I know what authority he carries, but I have some authority as well. Daddy my heart screams for you, for this is not a burden this is a cry of pain, hurt, frustrating, angry, and lost not just for myself, but my sisters nationwide. How dare they devalue us Daddy! Did you not call us precious rubies? Did you not call us priceless? Did you not call us your heart? Do we not have your last name? Daddy I can't wrap my mind around the thought of this act, the evidence of my sister's death, the disappointment of a system that speak of equal justice, but shows only favor towards certain people. Daddy this event has turn my world and others upside down. How do we get pass this moment? How we progress towards better? What do we do? Where do we go? Who do we run to?
Daughter please calm down I have heard your heart and the heart of your sisters and my people when it comes to this situation. Know this.... your sister didn't die in vain... My purpose will always remain and my glory will out shine the evilness of this world. Daughter my heart hurts for you and your sisters. I know what she meant to many of you. I know her impact in the earth. I knew that this would not be an easy thing to handle or even accept for any of you. I know that her family seeks justice, I know the heart of the officer and his co-workers. Daughter I know what happen to your sister and all I need you to do is trust me. Trust my justice it's greater than the thoughts of what you think your justice could bring. Trust my heart, that I will be the one that heals you, your sisters, and her family. Trust my revenge, because it's big and greater than any plan of revenge you could come up with. Trust my love, because even in chaos and unanswered questions, my love will bring clarity. Trust my peace, because it will surpass all your understanding. Trust my war plan, all I ask is that you put your war clothes on and show up for the battle, I will take care of the rest. Trust my ways, for  my ways are not like you ways. How I handle things will bring forth a better outcome and create a movement that man can't silence.Trust my timing, in my timing I produce perfection, though it may seem that my timing is off, remember this... I am an on time GOD! This is what I need you to do Daughter... as my daughter worship. For what you fighting is not a man but the assignments, ambushes, and attacks of the enemy. He is seeking to kill and destroy what I have created and unfortunately daughter it's starting in your family. Daughter don't allow what they report to dictate how you should respond. I am giving you clear instructions on how to respond and that's by standing still, worship, love, prayer, remain in my faith and faithful, and trust. When you do this and hold fast to what I promise you will see the manifestation  of me and the shifting from defeat to victory. Daughter stay encourage know that Daddy has this under control. I know that this may be painful, but all my processes come with pain and sacrifice, but know that it's all worth it. I love you Daughter and know that I am always here waiting for you. I AM... I AM and that's all you need to remember.

~Love you Daughter of Mine

Daddy's Song

He will take great delight in you in his love he will no longer rebuke you but will rejoice over you with singing.” (Zephaniah3:17b)

For the last couple of days I really have been hearing this verse echo in my spirit and heart as I deal with the thoughts, ideas, and frustrations of life and the changes that comes with it. If you know anything about this verse you know that before Daddy got to a point to create a song for his chosen people he was in a place of anger. He was at a point where he was about to remove himself from their presence until they got it together by following the instructions of the prophet. Isn't it like Daddy to give you another change even when he has probably made up in his thoughts towards you; that he will allow you to have the free will that you desire? Daddy's song is one that will not only give you the peace you need in the mist of hardship and difficulty, it's the same song that will heal you and the land that you live in. It's the same song that will rebuke the enemy and call forth the blood of Jesus. Daddy's Song will restore you back to your right purpose, it will cause you to desire to draw near to him. Daddy's song will help you make dreams into visions  and visions into reality. It will cause you to do what you feel you can't do. So sit still and get in your quiet place, Daddy is about to sing his song and when he is finish you will be asking for an encore. Don't take his song for granted because it produces the things you need as well as what you want. It can speed up time or slow it down. It can cause what man said was impossible into a possible turn around. Don't turn a deaf hear to the song of Daddy for in it are the instructions to your next step towards the manifestation of our destiny.

Prayer: Daddy thank you that you take the time out to sing your song over us. You speak life in your song, you breath your spirit in your song, instructions come with your song, the lifting of burdens come with the lyrics that you sing. Daddy help us to hear your song, accepting every note that you sing as a confirmation to the promises that you have spoke in you word. Daddy open our hearts that your song shall rest in us and not just in our ears. Daddy let us hum the melody of your song during the days of despair, disappointment, and distress.Daddy allow the melody of your song manifest what we couldn't see with our eyes but trust in faith for you to manifest. Daddy sing over us daily the song of your heart towards us personally that we may be reminded that we are your children individually and corporately. In Jesus Name AMEN!

I Got The Help

I lift up my eyes to the mountains—where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord,

the Maker of heaven and earth (Ps121: 1-2NIV)

It amazes me that there are so many times in my life where I am like I need help. Whether it's getting my life together, making life changing decisions, or just dealing with other people I always scream HELP!! And if you are like me, Daddy is the last person you go to when you need help. You may call a friend, sibling, parent, mentor, co-worker... Anybody but Daddy and why is this? The Psalmist ask the question where does my help come from then he answers:"It comes  from the LORD the maker of the heaven and earth." Well that makes sense... Why are we asking for help from people who didn't even create the situation or solution to what we need help with. Why are we on goggle or bing look for the answer or solution to the situation, when we can easily access the Father? Here is my answer to that question, because Daddy will give us an answer we don't want to hear. When we ask for help many times we are in desperate need to get an answer or a resolution to the situation. We don't want to deal with a process or a waiting period, waiting may be the thing we need help with so why give me the lesson on waiting? But that's Daddy, he want's us to learn the process of his help and this may mean waiting, or going through various steps. It may mean do something out of our comfort zone or even something we know nothing about. It may simple mean trusting him knowing that wherever he leads or tells us to do will get us to a place of being rescued. We must realize that when we seek help from anything or any one other than Daddy we are setting ourselves up for failure, because we are depending on something or someone that can't create help. The are giving us help based on experience or due to the experience of other sources that have dealt with similar or same situations, but is is not accurate help.  Daddy supplies help that he may have to create or help that may not be visible to the the nature eye.

Prayer:  Daddy right now we need your help! We know that many times when we ask for help we seek the help of others or things, but today Daddy we seek your help. We lift our heads and eyes to heaven looking up to you, seeking your presence and ready to receive your wisdom. We surrender our cry for help to you. Daddy help us to wait, help us through the steps, help us through the process, give us the confidence to hold our heads up when we are feeling down. Help us to trust you more, increase our faith, open our hearts to receive your instructions, and help us to lean and depend on you and you alone.  Help us to hear your voice, help us to recognize your presence in difficult and chaotic times. Daddy today we scream HELP US DADDY!!! In Jesus Name. AMEN
