Recently I have had opportunity to pray for a few people, and in each case I found myself praying for their families, their children. This isn't typical, so I asked God about it: what is He saying about families?Back at the beginning of lockdown I had such a strong sense of Malachi 4:6 -"He will... Continue Reading →
Be Ready – the Flood is Approaching
This morning I was praying generally - just wanting to sit in God's presence and hear His heart. I asked God what He wanted to say, and this is what I felt He said, My flood is coming. The bowls containing the prayers of my faithful ones are about to overflow in answer. I see... Continue Reading →
What It All Comes Down To
Love God.Love each other. I was tempted to leave the blog post there, as that is essentially all that God keeps bringing me back to. But the problem with that is that we all think we know it already. I'm speaking to myself first. And God keeps challenging me to connect more deeply with the... Continue Reading →
“Be Still and Know Me”
This morning God took me to Psalm 46:10, usually translated as "Be still and know that I am God". It's a well-known verse that has been spoken a lot this year. But this morning I felt that God wanted to point out the original words. They are raphah yada elohiym, literally translated as "relax, know... Continue Reading →
Let’s Be Pioneers
When I woke this morning I had the song 'Pioneers' (For King and Country) playing in my head. Although it was written as a song for married couples, I felt God was extending part of it as an invitation for individuals in relationship with Him:"Throw open the doors - you know My heart is yours....

Choose This Day…
Ten days ago God brought me to a verse that seemed to be a culmination of everything He has been saying to our church here. It was Joshua 24:15 “If it is unacceptable in your sight to serve the Lord, choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve: whether the gods which your fathers served... Continue Reading →
The ‘New’ is in Relationships

Is this really God? Or am I making a Big Mistake?
Well this is a very personal post today, but I wanted to share it because although we all face very different decisions and callings, the fear of getting it wrong is surely common to most, if not all of us. After all, faith is about trusting in what we cannot see, so there is always... Continue Reading →
Leaving the Ark Behind
I was on my way to an appointment this afternoon when God just dropped a word into my heart. It was unexpected - I was focused on something else - but it was very clear.He said this:"Don't cling to what you built in the last season - it may have been glorious and essential in... Continue Reading →
Positioned for a Miracle
Over the past few days I have had a growing sense of God calling me and my husband to 'get out of the boat and walk on water'. So this morning I decided to re-read the famous account of Peter walking on water in Matthew 14:23-33. As I read the account in a few translations... Continue Reading →
