Faith-Filled Friday Do you ever feel like you just can’t take anymore? Do you pull away when life gets tough? Or maybe you know someone who is really going thru it right now. You’ve landed in the right place for some encouragement for the soul. Thanks for joining us for Coffee Hour with Chicklit Power and Faith-Filled Friday with Trench Classes United. Debra’s message is spot on for the tired and discouraged soul.
My blessed child, when you go through deep waters, I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown. When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you. This is My great promise to you! In other words, no matter what you walk through, I am always by your side. Some cry and moan asking Me to come and be with them, but don't realize I am always there; never will I leave you. This assurance and your acceptance of it should change the way you look at each day. That should change the way you talk to Me throughout your day, in fact if you look at it, I fulfill promises to you every day. Will I not fulfill every promise to you? Will I not do what I say I will do? Do you believe My Word, all of it? Have you ever known Me to break a promise? Beloved, believe My Word, stand and declare My promises. Let them flow freely from your mouth, blessing all who hear them, that they too can grasp hold of My Word, believe for themselves, and declare that I Am Lord and there for you…and for them. From His heart thru mine, Debra

Feelings are the vehicle which can drive us to our Savior; they are not the end of the road.
Oh to not be controlled by our feelings! Join our Facebook community at www.facebook.com/trenchclassesunited Love, Kim-Evinda Wednesday’s Word Have you ever wished you could influence someone over to a better life, or towards better choices? And watched as they did completely the opposite of what you wished for, or even prayed for?
Thanks for joining us for Coffee Hour with Chicklit Power and Wednesday’s Word with Trench Classes United. It’s always so much easier to recognize bad choices, compromising decisions, and questionable lifestyles in and by others, right? I don’t know how many times I’ve read this prayer in Philippians, but for some reason, as I’m studying this book in the Bible, and really processing verse by verse, I am blown away by its power and purpose. Read this with me from the book of Philippians, Chapter 1, verses 9-11 (MSG): 9-11 So this is my prayer: that your love will flourish and that you will not only love much but well. Learn to love appropriately. You need to use your head and test your feelings so that your love is sincere and intelligent, not sentimental gush. Live a lover’s life, circumspect and exemplary, a life Jesus will be proud of: bountiful in fruits from the soul, making Jesus Christ attractive to all, getting everyone involved in the glory and praise of God What would it be like if we prayed these words over our unlovable and/or difficult people in our lives? One thing for sure, we’d be the ones to change our love would flourish as we learn to love much and love well! Prayerfully, Kim-Evinda Contrary to the world’s perspective on respect, respect, Jesus Style, is letting someone be who they are and loving them right where they are without trying to change who they are!

Be strong in Me! Draw your strength from Me; be empowered through your union with Me and in the power of My boundless might. When I said in My Word that you can do ALL things through Me, I meant just that. If you trust and rely on Me, there will be nothing you can't do or accomplish. As you follow Me, taking me with you daily, I will empower you. Because I have a plan that is for good, I will enable you to accomplish it. Do not become weary in doing good, but draw away to our secret place and let My Presence flood your spirit. Let Me encourage and strengthen you as you draw close to Me. Things become clear in the Light of My Presence. Understanding will open up to you as you spend time with Me. Beloved, there is nothing better than quality time with your Abba Daddy, with the lover of your soul, with your Creator and Lord. I call to you each day to come and leave your cares behind where it's just you and Me..... From His Heart thru mine… Debra Faith-filled Friday Have you ever served on a jury in a criminal case and experienced the emotion of the final judgment? Welcome to Coffee Hour with Chicklit Power and Faith-filled Friday with Trench Classes United. Debra has a beautiful word for us today!
Good morning, My love. So now the case is closed. There remains no accusing voice of condemnation against those who are joined in life, in union with Me, the Anointed One. But the accuser is constantly at work, telling you of all the things you are doing wrong and how you will never measure up - lies, all lies. Is My blood not sufficient? Let's look forward to what I have for you. Think on what is true and honest, just and pure, lovely and has a good report. Rid your mind of all negative, especially as it pertains to you...and all of My beloveds. My Word says to let My mind be in you. If you could see what I see: I see such good, such value in you. You are a pearl of great price and I desire that you come and spend time with Me, that you lay aside your own wants and desires and seek after Me. Run after Me, and I will cause all of your desires to be fulfilled. Your dreams and visions are small compared to what I desire for you. If you can dream it, I can make it bigger, for you serve a God that has no limitations, all is at My fingertips. Beloved, ALL means ALL. From God…thru Debra Thursday’s Truth Join us for more encouragement and like our page at www.facebook.com/trenchclassesunite
Wednesday’s Word Philippians 1:15-16
15 It is true that some preach Christ out of envy and rivalry, but others out of goodwill. 16 The latter do so out of love, knowing that I am put here for the defense of the gospel. Have you ever been hungry…real hungry? I was so excited to get into my new Bible study. Id’ been hungry for a while, craving some deep truths found in His Word. Unfortunately, I got hung up, sidetracked by the beginning pages, you know, the forward, the author’s accomplishments and affiliations. And before I knew it I was in the midst of a real ugly cry. Why? My biggest “why” that day was as a result of comparing myself to other authors and their audiences! I won’t get into all the other whys I had for Him that morning, but suffice it to say that when I did finally make it into the beginning of the study I got most of them answered with these two verses. See, Paul was imprisoned when he penned these verses, imprisoned because of his faith and others’ false accusations. He didn’t have social media to stir him up, but he did have many supporters, prayerfully and monetarily who kept him somewhat informed. While he was imprisoned, there were those who tried to imitate what he started, but with the wrong heart. In other words their hearts were not for others, but more for their own selves, their own popularity and profit. What’s so beautiful about that ugly truth? I’m glad you asked. If you read further, Paul acknowledges his complete trust in HIM whom he was imprisoned for. Paul says that it doesn’t matter who is preaching; it matters what they are preaching, and even if their reason for doing so doesn’t align, the message they preach will NOT come back void. Isn’t that the goal, that we each are a part of the eternal puzzle, every piece representing a soul uniting with Him? So instead of focusing on who you are reaching, trust that He’s got the “what” and the “how”! He uses all things, and all means all! He will sort it all out. As I finished up my study for that day, He had some questions for me: Is what you do with Transform in the Trench helping others? Yes, I answered without hesitation. Is what you do helping others turn toward Me? Yes again Lord! That is my heart’s passion. Then let me handle the details; don’t focus on others, who is reaching who, because that causes striving and surviving; I long for you to be thriving in this exciting ride of living with and for Me.

Come closer, My beloved… Those who are motivated by the flesh only pursue what benefits themselves. But those who live by the prompting of the Holy Spirit are motivated to pursue spiritual realities. And this must be sought after by pursuing Me, by desiring the deep things of the Spirit. Come, My love, come and spend time with Me. Make it a daily habit that We can spend time together so you learn My voice, My leading and where I'm taking you. Before you go anywhere in the natural, I desire you to come and know what I desire in the spiritual. I have much to share with you as you make that place of giving to Me. Never let your life become so busy that there's no time for Me, for you lose your sensitivity to Me and then you are doing things in yourself. And then before you know it, My beloved, you are wore down and out. Build yourself up in your most holy faith by singing songs and hymns and spiritual songs. Dance before Me just as I sing and take delight in you. Let your love for Me spill out even as My love for you fills your heart and life. From God thru… Debra |
