Women of Influence ~ Daughters of the King: JOIN THE MINISTRY-MOVEMENT!

Hello Beautiful Ones!

Welcome to Women of Influence ~ Daughters of the King!

 

This is the beginning of a ministry-movement! It is open to all women of faith in God as their Daddy. This makes you His Daughter, which is what makes you a Woman of Influence. This page is just the beginning and a place to offer encouragement and build sisterhood.

https://www.facebook.com/groups/268597216654136/

This ministry-movement is both local and global. It includes like women of faith in your circle of life and local church. However, it goes far beyond that. It is not just a ministry or a movement of any one church, but a ministry-movement across the face of the earth!

The name and logo have been officially trademarked by me for the expressed purpose of bringing unity of God's Daughters across the earth, equipping, encouraging, and empowering Women of Influence.

Ask yourself this question: When we awaken to our soul purpose, what can we accomplish for our King? As united sisters across the earth, what can we not do? All things are possible!
A website is coming soon, so stay tuned! In the meantime, join the ministry-movement and invite other women of faith to join.

Many of our sisters need encouragement and to be empowered to know who they are in Christ, and what they can do for Him and His Kingdom!

It's time to rise up in faith sisters! You are needed! Each of you has a God given purpose to fulfill on this earth. Only you can fill your role! People are waiting for you. Nations are calling you! Will you answer the call?

God bless you all!

Passover and The Open Doors

Passover has arrived and with it many amazing opportunities. It is the year 5774 on the Hebrew calendar. It is known as the year of the open doors. How appropriate is that, since Passover was the time when the children of Israel applied the blood of the Passover Lamb to the door of their homes, so that the death angel would pass over them.

Jesus is our Passover Lamb and in this year of the open doors, we know He is more than able to protect us from all evil, provide a way of escape for us from our enemies, and provide for our future. Do you trust Him with this completely?

Not only is tonight Passover, but it is also a rare occurrence of a blood moon. Now, this is nothing to be afraid of, but we should take notice of the seasons and the times we are living in. There is something uniquely significant to this time. Let's view it as a time to seek the Lord and all that He has planned for us in this season as He leads us through the open doors that He has placed before us.

This is a time of expectancy! This is a time of no more delay! Just read Ezekiel 12:21-28 (NIV).

There Will Be No Delay

²¹ The word of the Lord came to me: ²² “Son of man, what is this proverb you have in the land of Israel: ‘The days go by and every vision comes to nothing’? ²³ Say to them, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am going to put an end to this proverb, and they will no longer quote it in Israel.’ Say to them, ‘The days are near when every vision will be fulfilled. ²⁴ For there will be no more false visions or flattering divinations among the people of Israel. ²⁵ But I the Lord will speak what I will, and it shall be fulfilled without delay. For in your days, you rebellious people, I will fulfill whatever I say, declares the Sovereign Lord.’”

²⁶ The word of the Lord came to me: ²⁷ “Son of man, the Israelites are saying, ‘The vision he sees is for many years from now, and he prophesies about the distant future.’

²⁸ “Therefore say to them, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: None of my words will be delayed any longer; whatever I say will be fulfilled, declares the Sovereign Lord.’”

Whose Plan Are You Following?

Abraham had his plans, but God had another plan.

Instead of waiting patiently for the promises of God, Abraham followed the advice of his wife to take her servant girl. Abraham and Sarah thought they were helping God fulfill His plan, in doing so. However, what resulted was the birth of Ishmael and their house was never the same, nor our world for that matter. Jealousy, envy, bitterness, anger, and many more emotions resulted from man doing it his way. Strife and animosity, regret and shame were also present because of this choice to not wait on God and His perfect timing and plan. A rivalry between two people groups still exists to this day. This still results in wars in the middle east, all these years later. WOW!!! Did that just preach to you, as it did to me? What are the long-term effects and fall-out of your plans and choices going to have on this world, your family, your friends, even your enemies? This is serious!

Jonah had his plans, but God had another plan.

Jonah, who was an Old Testament prophet of God was told by God to go to Ninevah and preach a message of God's Judgment. However, he chose not to go to the city, because of his fear of the people and what they would do to him when he delivered this message of doom and gloom. If you studied history, you know just how ruthless the Assyrians were with their enemies, so it's easy to take Jonah's side. However, we must always be obedient to God, no matter what it looks like or what we think about the situation. What we know, that Jonah had no way of knowing, until he actually walked it out was that the people of Ninevah repented and God spared them, pouring out His mercy and grace on them. So, there never really was any true danger to Jonah, but he did not know that. For his disobedience, God sent a storm and a giant fish to redirect his path. In the end, Jonah repented of his plans and followed God's plan, thus bringing grace and truth to an entire city. Again, we see a message of the far reaching effects of our choices and obedience to God and His plans.

Saul, who would become the Apostle Paul had his plans, but God had another plan.

A Pharisee who saw it as his ordained purpose to kill Christians... Now, who could be more determined than that? If anyone was committed, it was Saul. He thought he was doing God's work by bringing judgment and death, but he was way off. In fact, he was deceived! This is why Jesus literally stopped him in his tracks. He was questioned about what he was doing and why by the Creator of Life. He was blinded for 3 days. If ever there was a story of brokenness, Paul's is it! His circumstances were beyond his own control. God had allowed a crisis to arise in his life to stop him from carrying out his plans. Jesus Himself called Saul on the carpet for questioning. This man of power and authority was arrested in his tracks. Then, he had to be led by others to a house where he began to question his life and his plans. After 3 days of fasting, he finally saw the light and repented. He was saved, baptized, and born a new man - the Apostle Paul. He wrote 2/3 of the New Testament and evangelized the world for Jesus... Long-term and far reaching effects for sure!

What about you? Are you making your own plans, or are you going by God's plan?

If you find yourself relating to one of the three stories above, then you have found yourself in good company. You see, the Bible says many are the plans in a man's (and woman's) heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails. God's ways are not our ways. He sees and knows all. He has a better vantage point than we do. Purpose is higher than a plan. Purpose does not change, but plans change all the time! So, I ask you to search your heart. Are you following your own plans, or God's purpose for your life? There's a big difference. Your way will not produce even 1 thing you want; or think you want. God's way always produces all that we need. He even fulfills our heart's desire. God knows you better than you know yourself, so trust Him to have His way in your life. You won't be disappointed!

 

Turn it Around

It's time to Turn It Around!
It's a New Year!
I am listening to Israel Houghton and New Breed - "It's Not Over," right now.

Listen, it's not over! It's not finished!
It's not ending! It's only the beginning.
When God is in it, He makes all things NEW!

It's darkest before it's dawn. This might be the hardest season you've experienced.
It hurts, but you're closer than you think you are and closer than you've been before.
Hold on and hold fast!

Seasons are changing!
Just look at our weather lately.
Take that as a sign that God is changing, shaking, and shifting things for you now!

STAND your ground! Be BOLD and COURAGEOUS! Do NOT Fear!
God is Faithful! Look to the sky. Help is on the way!
No matter what it feels like, no matter what it looks like.

You walk by Faith/NOT by what you see! Do you hear me? God is right there with you.
Don't you DARE utter a WORD of doubt!
You SPEAK LIFE and ONLY words of LIFE!!!

And if you think you're gonna speak negative, put your hand over your mouth!
Don't you speak against your breakthrough! Don't you tear down your blessing!
Just remember, only you can stop the flow of God's breakthrough...
... by the POWER of your WORDS!

You can't be a rollercoaster.
Ask God to stabilize you while you wait.
See, when you agree today and doubt tomorrow...
... God has to stop and hold up what He's doing for YOU.
He says, oh, OK, you want to do it, all right, I'll step back and let you do it.

Set your mind now. No more up, down, up, down.
STOP IT!
Come on now.
LOCK IT IN!!!
Have a stable attitude, no matter what it looks like or sounds like.

When you agree with God, NOTHING is impossible!
Patience is your ATTITUDE, while you wait.
Don't grumble and complain, gripe or whine!

This is why the children of Israel stayed in the wilderness 40 years!
Do you wanna go around the same mountain 40 years?
No, you don't! Don't be like that! Learn from them.

Now is the time to praise and proclaim the goodness of God!
Right Now, when you can't see it, this is your time to step out in faith and dare to believe!
Lift up your voice of praise. Give God your best and highest praise!
Shout now, because you've got the victory! Worship God with all you've got!
Your breakthrough depends on your attitude, while you wait.

When God is in it, there is no limit!
Your God will FIGHT for you!
Only believe! Do NOT Doubt! Do NOT give up!

Stand up right now, by faith, and turn around.
Now say this: God is turning my situation around!
God is for YOU; so who, my friend, can be against you?

Nothing is impossible with God!
He holds your whole world in His hands.
You are not going backward. You are moving FORWARD!

Get up! Don't you lay down and die. Don't stay in that bed, crying!
If you are a born again Christ follower, the devil has NO authority over you!
You call the shots. You don't give him and inch and watch him take a mile. NO! Stop that!

You take back the inch and then grab back the mile too!!!
Go into his camp and TAKE BACK what's yours!
It's time! Come on! Get up. Get up. Get up!

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
It's time for you to get mad at the enemy! RIGHTEOUSLY INDIGNANT!!!
It's NOT OK that you are sick!
That doctor's report is NOT an OPTION for you!
It's NOT OK that your spouse left you or cheated on you!
It's NOT OK that your loved ones are not saved!
It's NOT OK you're finances are in shambles!
It's NOT OK you think death is your only option!
It's NOT OK you think your answer is in that bottle!
It's NOT OK the enemy stole God's blessings from you!
It's time for the enemy to pay. It's time for you to RECOVER ALL!!!

You are not a slave. We have left Egypt!
Your chains are gone and the prison doors are unlocked and open!
Jesus has died to FREE you and REDEEM you!
We have crossed the Jordan! We're not wandering in the desert anymore! No!
It's time to FIGHT, go into the enemy's camp and get your stuff!

GOD Can Do Anything!

God is able to do anything, everything, and all that you need Him to do! Judge Him faithful and true! He is the Captain of the Armies of Heaven. He is the Fairest of 10,000! He is the Alpha and Omega (Beginning and the End). He is the Lily of the Valley. He is your Peace. He is a Friend that sticks closer than a brother. He is Father to the fatherless. He is our Comforter. He is our Advocate and Attorney. He is the Lover of our Soul! He is your Provider. He is your Healer. He is everything you need, could ever want, and more!

• This year He has set before you an open door that no man can shut! Rev. 3:8

• He has declared that NOW is the time of His favor for you! 2 Cor. 6:2

• He has told us that as long as we have a relationship with Him, all we have to do is ask, believe Him for what we ask Him for, and receive what we are asking for. John 15:17 and 20:22

Start praising Him for what He has done and is doing for you. He will make a way where there is no way. He will do what He has promised you. He is not a man that He should lie. You can trust Him with your whole heart! Do not fear! Do not give up or give in. Praise Him for your breakthrough.

This is your year Dear Ones! Only Believe. Let what's dead come to life!

The Pattern of the Kingdom Revealed!

Did you know the gospel really truly is very simple? We tend to make a mess of it with all of our dogma and theology. It's time to get back to the basic truths of scripture and the life saving message of the cross.

So, let's break down a very simple scripture for our understanding, wisdom, revelation, and empowerment to dare to believe GOD is EXACTLY who HE said HE is! I've said it before and I'm going to say it again, like a drill sergeant, until it gets into your head, heart, and spirit.

John 10:10
The thief (that's Satan) comes only to:

• kill
• steal
• destroy

but check out the 2nd part of that verse...

JESUS said, I have come to give you:

• LIFE
• ABUNDANCE
• FULLNESS

Now, connect the two in a parallel study. It's the GREAT EXCHANGE, which ONLY JESUS can do! This is a WONDERFULLY, POWERFULLY packed scripture! It's just ONE verse, but MAN, is it POWERFUL!!!

Maybe you didn't see it before or get it before, I mean TRULY GET IT!!!

Here's the GREAT EXCHANGE:

• what was killed by the enemy is brought to LIFE by JESUS!
• what was stolen by the enemy is returned in ABUNDANCE by JESUS!!
• what was destroyed by the enemy is restored in FULLNESS by JESUS!!! 

Hallelujah! You should be shouting right about now! If you're not shouting, then you either didn't get the simple, yet life altering truth that I just unpacked for you, or you've never had anything taken from you (in which case, I'd sure like to meet you). Check your pulse. Are you alive? Come on and praise God, somebody! That's such a GOOD WORD!!! Let it sink in! MARINATE in that TRUTH!

I don't know about you, but I have had the enemy kill, steal, and bring destruction in my life way too many times. I am sick and tired of it and this year I determine NO MORE! My gloves are off! I am drawing the line in the sand! I am crossing the Jordan and taking back ALL the enemy has stolen! I am NOT taking NO for an answer anymore and I am NOT negotiating with Satan!

7 times the enemy has to repay and I intend to RECOVER ALL!!! I refuse to be devastated and decimated! I am not going to cower or cringe in the corner! I am not going to lay down and die! Oh No, No, NO! You got the wrong one on the wrong day, devil! You don't know who you are messing with! I am a FIERCE LIONESS and I am ready to fight, bite, roar, and war!

The enemy is our enemy. He's a TERRORIST! We do NOT negotiate with Terrorists! There is NO truth in him! His M.O. NEVER changes, so it's time to call him out and call him on his junk! The book of Genesis declares the woman and her seed would have ENMITY for the enemy. That's INTENSE, EVER INCREASING HOSTILITIES and HATRED that GROWS EXPONENTIALLY from GENERATION to GENERATION! It's time to get righteously indignant with the enemy! No more miss nicey nice (ladies) and no more Mr. Nice Guy (men)!

The Kingdom of Heaven suffers violence and the violent take it by FORCE!!! Matthew 11:12

So, dear ones, it's time to fight! This seems to be our anthem and battle cry for 2014 and it's OK, because for too long we've let the enemy walk all over us. I'm declaring, proclaiming, and decreeing NO MORE! This is NOT AN OPTION!!! It's a NEW YEAR! It's a NEW DAY! The OLD Wendy is dead and gone! I am determined to make the enemy rue the day he ever thought about messing with me! When he hears my name he's gonna run in fear in Jesus' name!

It's Time For Your Breakthrough!

I am so EXCITED about all that God is getting ready to do this year! I have such an EXPECTANCY in my spirit that I can hardly contain! We have to establish some truths here and now about God, right now at the start of this year, in order to be READY to step into ALL that He has for us!

TRUTHS TO LIVE BY, MEDITATE ON, MARINATE IN FOR YOUR BREAKTHROUGH IN 2014!

1) GOD is ABLE! NOTHING (not 1 thing; big or small) is IMPOSSIBLE with HIM! In fact, ALL THINGS are POSSIBLE with HIM and NOTHING is TOO HARD for GOD!

2) The Kingdom of God suffers VIOLENCE, and the VIOLENT take it by FORCE! (Matthew 11:12)
Did you get that? The Kingdom of God is NOT exempt from violence. Where does this come from? I'm glad you asked. John 10:10 gives us the answer and it is the Enemy, Satan - the prince of the power of the air. That's his title, but WE outrank him! We are Sons and Daughters of the Most High God and that trumps all of Satan's authority! This leads me to point #3.

3) Jesus said ALL POWER and AUTHORITY was given to us. (Luke 10:19) Power to trample on snakes and scorpions, and ALL power over the enemy. What more do we need to KNOW that we know that we know that we have MORE THAN ENOUGH to beat Satan. Jesus said it, so that's good enough for me. I don't have to listen to one more lie. I don't have to shrink back to one more accusation. I don't have to take one more attack. It's time for me to fight back! And it's time for you to fight back too! GET UP! Don't you lay down and die! The enemy may have taken an inch from you, but don't give him a mile. You take a mile! GO GET IT!

4) Vengeance is the Lord's! (Romans 12:19) The Lord will repay it. Just remember that we are not fighting flesh and blood (people), but the enemy and all of his evil cohorts. (Ephesians 6:12). So, the Lord brings vengeance on the enemy, not people. Keep the proper perspective. It's the enemy behind it all anyway. So, ask the Lord to bring vengeance on the enemy and not people. He has to flea 7 ways and pay back 7 times what he stole from you, so you ask God for it in your health, finances, salvations in your family, friends, and co-workers, and peace. (Deuteronomy 28:7, Proverbs 6:31).

5) When you have done the will of God, all you need is patience for Him to bring forth your promises (Hebrews 10:36). You know He will, because He's God and He is faithful. He never lies. He will do what He promised you. (Deuteronomy 7:9, Numbers 23:19).

So, Dear Ones, it's time to fight. It's time take back ALL that's yours. It's time to believe and trust God! Do not shrink back. You surge ahead in Jesus' name!
