Prophecy - "Are you mine, my little ones?  Are you mine all the time?  If so, and I am yours all the time.  My little ones, even if you should abandon me, I will never abandon you.  I will always be by your side and if you let me, I will guide you, I will lead you, I will inspire you and I will fill you with my Spirit.  My power will be in you and my power will flow from you.  My little ones, you are mine all the time.  Never forget that.  Never doubt that.  Never think, 'I don't deserve it.'  For you were saved by my sacrifice.  You were bought at a great price.  You are mine, my little ones.  The day you allowed me to be your Lord and Maker and Master, is the day I took you into my own heart and I will never let you go.  You are mine all the time whether you deserve it or not.  You cannot work for it.  You cannot earn it.  You have only to allow me to love you and to use you.  You are mine, my little ones.  Never ever forget that.  Never allow the enemy to lie to you and convince you that you have done wrong and you do not belong to the Lord.  That is an outright lie.  You are mine always and forever.  Trust me.  I hold you in the palm of my hand.  I will never let you go.  Trust me.  Believe me.  Allow me to walk with you.  Allow me to use you.  You are my hands and my feet.  You are my mouthpiece.  Go where I send you.  Do what I ask.  Never doubt.  Allow me to use all the gifts that I have given you.  Be open and receive for I have so much more to give.  I need you, my little ones.  If not you, then who?

Scripture Reading Psalm 67:1-3 - "May God be gracious to us and bless us, and make his face to shine upon us!  That your way may be known upon earth, your saving power among all nations.  Let the peoples praise you, O God, let all the peoples praise you!"

Scripture Reading John 15:18-19 - "If you find that the world hates you, know it has hated me before you.  If you belong to the world, it would love you as its own.  The reason it hates you is that you do not belong to the world, but I chose you out of the world" 

Lynn shared that she had been doing this Zoom thing once a month on God the Father, a reading where there is meditation.  She read these prayers every day for a number of months and they didn't impact her.  But this last week, where she was given the sharing and because she had given her heart to the Lord, suddenly these meditations so impacted her.  When you have this desire in your heart, God slowly works quietly inside of you and bursts the heart wide open.  He's so amazing.

Scripture Reading Psalm 65:1-4, Thanksgiving Hymn - "Praise is rightfully yours, God, in Zion.  Vows to you must be fulfilled, for you answer prayer.  All flesh must come to you with all its sins; though our faults overpower us, you blot them out.  Happy the man you choose, whom you invite to live in your courts.  Fill us with the good things of your house, of your holy Temple."

Prophecy - "Do not be afraid.  The battle is mine."

Scripture Reading after the teaching, Phil 4:8-9 - "Finally, my brothers, your thoughts should be wholly directed to all that is true, all that deserves respect, all that is honest, pure , admirable, decent, virtuous or worthy of praise.  Live according to what you have learned and accepted, what you have heard me say and see me do, then the God of peace will be with you."

Teaching

Leslie spoke on Unforgiveness.  The important thing is what do we do with our hurt?  Some lash out, others withdraw so much that they become bitter and resentful.  This is not healthy as it leads to internal pain which in most cases manifests into a physical condition.  Seven steps to forgiveness.  1) Acknowledge the hurt done to you.  Was it someone you trusted?  2) Consider how this person has affected you.  Are you suffering emotionally or physically?  3) Accept that you can't change the situation.  The pain is really there.  4) Determine whether or not you will forgive.  This decision should not be made lightly as it will determine the future of your relationship with that person.  5) Repair the situation.  Rebuild the connection.  This is difficult.    6) Learn about your capacity to forgive as this will help to bring some form of closure.  7) Practise forgiveness.  Work on trying to find a way to let go.  These steps taken from the website thriveworks.com.  Forgiveness does not mean forgetting or excusing the harm done to you.  You can lessen its grip on you and help free you from the control the person has over you.  Forgiveness is about letting go of anger and realizing that you are powerless without God's strength and guidance.  Psalm 29:11 - "The Lord will give strength and power to his people.  The Lord will bless his people with peace."  Forgiveness is a gradual process.  The hurt is very real.  You may have to consider going to a support group, a counsellor or your pastor.  If you don't forgive, you are poisoning yourself.  Try seeing yourself from the other person's point of view.  Empathy.  Reflect on times you have hurt others and those who have forgiven you.  Journalling will help you reflect on your own emotions.  Pray and ask God to help you.  Talk to someone.  It's a process.  Even small hurts may need to be revisited and forgiven over and over.  Matt 6:14-15 - "If you forgive others their transgressions, your heavenly Father will forgive you.  But if you do not forgive others, neither will your Father forgive your transgressions."  Matt 18:21-22 - "Then Peter approaching asked him, 'Lord, if my brother sins against me, how often must I forgive him?  As many as seven times?'  Jesus answered, 'I say to you, not seven times but seventy-seven times.'  Forgiveness is a decision to let go.  Matt 5:44 - Jesus said, "Pray for your enemies."  Forgiveness starts with reflection.  It is nourished by love and it leads to freedom.  Col 3:13 - "Bear with one another and forgive one another.  If any of you has a grievance against someone, forgive as the Lord forgave you."  Luke 11:2-4 - In the Our Father - "And forgive us our sins for we ourselves forgive everyone in debt to us."  Luke 23:34 - Jesus asked God the Father to forgive those who were crucifying him.  Genesis 45:4-7 - Joseph forgave his brothers who sold him into slavery.  Acts 7:54-60 - Stephen extended forgiveness to those who murdered him.  Luke 15:11-32 - The prodigal son was welcomed home with open arms by his father.  It takes a strong person to say, "I'm sorry," and a stronger person to say, "I forgive you."  A quote from Mark Twain - "Forgiveness is the fragrance the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it."
