In the Present Moment with Jesus
By Nancy Johnson
Before I was saved, I went through 14 years of sickness and hopelessness that ended in critical care at the hospital. It all changed when I gave my heart to Jesus. He came bounding in and made me a brand new creation. Jesus told me: “Nancy, you are brand new, you have no reason to even consider the old identity or your past anymore. I can turn this thing around! I am a present God. Right now, my heart beats in your heart and my breath flows into your lungs. You are now living, moving, and having your being in Me.” (Acts 17:28)
A brand new life seemed impossible to me. But God! Every day He took me on an incredible journey. This meant He was with me in every moment. “Trust me,” He kept saying, “I can do this! Even though you are afraid to let me have your life, I can do it!” And I can tell you the past would torture me horribly, and so would the future. The only safe place for me was to lose myself in worship and to think the thoughts of God. And His thoughts were way out of my box. But I continually traded in my ashes for His beauty moment by moment.
Even though all of us live in a battleground, I believe we can live in the fullness of His life and more life. I believe through our hunger and desire for Him, we can constantly engage our powerful Savior. In our praises, we are saturated with Him. In our prayer, we are saturated with Him. It’s walking in awareness and focus. It’s a place where we are no longer conformed to this world but are transformed by the renewal of our minds. (Romans 12:1-2)
I believe God is telling us, as His sons and daughters, that we can trust Him to answer our prayers and to make our paths straight. The carnal mind constantly tries to create death (Romans 8:5-11). But we can renounce that and simply choose life. We can drop down out of our heads, and start to live out of the eternal love in our hearts. Love is powerful and timeless. When you engage with the heart of Jesus, you are in the NOW! It’s a choice to live a life with Love. In that sweet place where your heart is abiding in His, you forget all about your self.
My beautiful family, it’s only Him that we need after all. Right now and present.

What Lies Ahead: A 4 Year Prophecy for the United States.
By Tony Francis.
I was in prayer, positioning myself before our Heavenly Father to hear from Him for the next four years for America. I submit this to you in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, Amen!
This is what I feel the Holy Spirit is revealing to me, as someone seasoned in the prophetic for decades:
I sense the Lord has highlighted the word ‘LIFE' for these four coming years. It feels as though America has been under an assignment of death for a while, with various areas like business, social justice, education, and freedom withering. I saw these areas being affected by the spirit of death.
However, I see in the Spirit the rain of life and refreshment pouring out on the land, watering it. I believe the first two years will be about healing and gaining momentum, which should be beautiful and exciting. Don't we get excited when we start seeing our bodies, relationships, and finances healing? We get our hopes up, but healing is not the end goal; it's a step towards something greater! So, the coming two years will be marked by healing and peace, and many people will join forces as one community to facilitate this.
In the last two years, I see America regaining its reputation and the name of the USA having a strong place on the list of global countries once again. A strong presence that influences the course of events!
Therefore, rejoice, and discern the times, seasons, and orders. As believers, let's avoid negative speech and curses. Do not despise the days of small beginnings! You will reach your goals, but there's a specific way, wisdom, and timing to it.
Never say nothing is happening. See the truth of the matter!
I am unbiased and do not engage in politics. My concern is the Kingdom of Jesus, for God so loved the world!
Blessings,
