The Search For Intimacy

As we journey through life it becomes apparant that we are called to more, as we journey through life we become aware that we are not here of our own accord but somebody out there created us with Purpose a Passion and a plan.
As we journey through life we become aware that we want more! More than what we know and more than what we have more than our cuurent reality and more than our current circumstances...

We were all called for greatness this much I know to be true. Within in all of us is something that says " I want more, I was born for more than this."
I beleive that one of the keys to a life filled with Passion, Purpose, Vision, Drive and conviction starts, with accepting the fact that we are all called to Greatness every single one of us, We are all called to live an extrodinary life, we all have a desire within us to do something great for a reason, but we must also come to the realisation we were not created to do it alone!

We were not created to figure things out on our own, for so many years I tried and I tried, within me was something bigger than I could ever understand, within me was a desire to reach for the stars within me was the call to greatness..

And it began with the search, the search for the answers my heart was desperatly seeking, even now the search continues. I have come to realise that I cannot acheive greatness on my own, I cannot reach the stars in my own stregth and I cannot live a life of the extrodianry when I try and do it myself. It starts with a hungry and surrendered heart, it starts with a life given up to the cause... It stars here it starts here it starts now, it starts with the search for intimacy the search for a God who is all powerful and all knowing. A God is who is waiting, a God who is calling all men unto himself.. Seek him and you shall find him, you will find all you are looking for.. Seek him and you will find the greatness you desire. Seek him and you will the find the answers you have been searching for, seek him and you will find the rock on which you must stand!
Even if you know him you still must seek him, he is waiting, he is wanting to pour out his treasures to you, He is waiting to give you all that you need all that you desire, he is waiting to fill you up he is waiting to give you a hope and a future, he is waiting simply for you....

" Seek me and you WILL find me, Really seek me and you WILL find me. Place me above everything else that you know and trust and you WILL find me! Let me be your first thought and you last thought and you WILL find me. Let your search for me consume you over everything and you WILL find me!! Really truly whole heartedly seek me and you WILL find me...."

He is waiting, he is waiting to unveal the greatness he has placed within you, he is waiting to give you the dreams you desire !!
He is waiting patiently, lovingly he is waiting... He is waiting for you he is waiting for me! He never fails, he never dissapoints.. He never changes. He is constant he is true, he is faithful, he is the answer he is our GOD!

So Strong and So Mighty !!

We are called to live by faith and walk in his might, we are called to make a change and be the difference. We are called to be his hands and his feet, we are called to walk in the light. We are called to stand for the truth and speak out his promises.

We are called to rise up in the face of opposistion and stand firm on his word!
We are called to stand out in the crowd and make a noise not to lie down and be quite and hide in the back ground we are here to make a change! People come and people go but God forever remains!

I have begun to realise over the last two years that I am not small, I am not inadequate, I am not stupid and I am not worthless. I am loved and I am worthy!

I have begun to realise that I am not defined by my past or even my present. I am not defined by what I do or who I am with, I am not defined by my actions. I am not defined by who my friends are or even what I wear.
I am not defined by popularity or fame, I am not defined by mans opinion and I am certainly not defined by my own opinion! I cannot put myself in a box or try to fit a mould I think was made for me.

I am defined by the ultimate creator I am defined by the love of a father and the favor of God.
I am chosen and I am called, I am redeemed and I am restored, I know the truth and I am free.

Words cannot begin to express the love I have for a God that is higher than any circumstance, higher than any emotion and higher than any situation. And as I sit here I am reminded of the power my God has placed in me.

I am a woman of influence, I am a woman of change, I am a woman of greatness and I am woman of authority! I am a woman of vision, I am a woman of hope, I am a woman of Power and I am a woman who is set apart.

My God is big enough to change any reality and any situation, My God is big enough to move mountains and to see this generation changed.

I carry a burden that is so much bigger than myself, that is bigger than even I can understand.
To see a generation arise, arise with the confidence in a God that restores, redeems and sets free.
To arise and not settle for what they know as their current reality but to be the change agent in their worlds!
To arise and begin to see the potential that God has placed in each and everyone of them and has nothing but the best for them.

But it starts with me, It starts with a life surrendered to the cause of Christ. It starts with a heart so lost in God that men must seek him in order to reach me.. It is a journey and it is an adventure but it starts here it starts now in this moment in this place!

MY GOD IS SO STRONG AND SO MIGHTY THERE IS NOTHING MY GOD CANNOT DO!!

Tell me that you'll open your eyes







Again here I am in a state of wonder, My God so big so strong so mighty, his earth in a state that I know he never intended. And here I sit in my office staring at a picture on my wall wondering what next I know there is so much more.
I hear a song in the back ground saying what you tell me that you'll open your eyes! I know my God is talking I know that my eyes have been opened and as I stare at the Banner that sits above my desk I know it is just the beginning.

I have spent a week in the very thick of the in justice of this world! I have spent the week loving kids that don't know what life is like out of the craziness of their reality.
A simple hug and it changes their world, maybe there is something more out there they start to think, maybe what I know is not my lot!
I choose to breathe life into those that need it, pull up that which has been pulled down, fight to the death for the lives of those that have been robbed!
With simple actions we release in these kids the courage to achieve their dreams, we open their eyes to what they deserve.

I never knew that my heart could ache like it does, I did not know that GOD would yet again flip my world right around. Just when you think you have it sorted God shows up and turns your world upside down!

Where to from here ? I do not know all I know is that now is the time to speak words of life, to breathe the word of the lord into those that think that what they have is as good as it gets.

I am again left with the challenge of turning to God emptying my hands and re surrendering my life to the greater cause!

I desire to see a generation arise with a sound that is heard in the distant I am desire that their eyes will be opened and they will see! The glory of the most high God, the favor that he pours out into their lives, the strength, their passion and the call that he has placed into every single individual!

I cry out tell me that you'll open your eyes, there is so much more walk out of where you are into the light that he holds for you! I want so much to open your eyes because you need to see, you need to know, tell me that you'll open your eyes. Open to the cause and love of Christ ! This generation will be saved I know it I believe it and I choose to be apart of it!

Glory to God, Glory to the King of Kings, Glory to the one that will open your eyes all you have to do is ask!

The Power Of Expectation

WOW what a life that I lead, what a journey that I am on.

Two weeks of seeing My mighty God move through this nation using me and my church family, 1428 added to his kingdom saved from a destiny of doom 4500 hungry hearts hearing his word, not sure of what took place but the seed still planted only to blossom in Gods timing.

Two weeks to remember two weeks that changed my life and shook my reality.

And now as I sit and stare out the window and allow my mind to travel I am in AWE of the one that I serve.
I am in awe of his greatness and his power and his mighty works.

I am blown away by the fact that he would choose me for such a task, for such a time as this.

My mind could never and still cannot comprehend what he has on store for those that chose to follow him.
I will never understand the extent to which he wishes to use me until I am in the moment I am in the there.

I often wonder where I will end up what he will make of me and all I know is that I stand on his word and his promises I hold them close to my heart and as I close my eyes I see the life that he has for me, the joy, the peace, the favor and the blessings.

There is nothing in this world that can compete or even meet up with the standard in which he has promised me that I will live.
The lives that I am able to impact that truth that I am able to speak and the love that I am able to share.

The dreams I dream are huge, the life I wish to lead is one that is hungry to be used hungry to see the people understand and know that truth and the freedom that comes from knowing God.

Yet all I Can do at this moment in time is sit in my office and stare out the window and praise my God for his goodness, for his grace and for the call that he has placed on my life.

I have learnt never to loose my expectation, never to loose my passion and never too loose the spirit of Praise!

Even when the road is long and hard you still gotta Praise you still gotta let it well up in your spirit you have to let the spirit of Praise set you free!

Can I get a WHOOP WHOOP !!!!

Until next time H x

Freedom

My name is Hannah I am 25 years old I have walked this this life and I have come to NOW, the Present, the moment and the time like no other.

I know without a doubt in my heart of hearts that I have the answer and I have the truth,

I know without a doubt and that he is the only answer to true freedom, I also know the world is searching.

I know that we are raising a generation that will not be afraid to stand in the Gap and fight on his behalf I also know I am part of that generation.

I am convinced in my heart of hearts that he does not need me yet he still chooses me daily as I choose to submit to him.
I also know that this life I live is not my own, he gave his life for me the least I can do is surrender mine to him.

I also know some people think I am crazy, but I also know that within all if them there is a part of them crying out for the freedom that I know.
I am convinced in my heart of hearts that I am called to reach nations and lead a life that is less than ordinary and fill of the extraordinary.

I am utterly one hundred percent convinced that he is the way the truth and the light .

I am convinced that he will mend the broken hearted and take away their pain.

I am one hundred percent convinced that one day all the world will bow in worship to a King that is worthy of so much more.

I am also convinced he is the only one there is no other of higher or of equal power to him, he is infinite he is as good as it will ever get.

I also know that he is the Saviour and he is the King.

I know that I once was lost but I am now found and forgiven.

I also Know that I walk in the truth and I walk in the light, and that I am FREE.

I am convinced that without him I am nothing other than a weak and mere human on a path of destruction, seeking, searching for that one thing that I know i need.

I have learnt and believe that there is nothing else that will fill the void in the depths of my heart other than him, he is the answer, he is the truth.

I also know that if you are reading this you are either smiling or wondering what this weirdo is on about.

Lift your eyes up to the hills where does your help come from? Mine comes from the Lord maker of the heavens and the Earth.... My Name is Hannah I am 25 years old this much I have found to be true, HE is GOD he is the ANSWER, he loved me so much he sent his son to die for me to die for you.

HE IS THE ONLY ANSWER TO FREEDOM YOU FIND IT IN HIS NAME.

Don't forget to check the small things


I sit and I stare. I stare at the world that surrounds me, I stare at it's beauty, I stare at the intricit details, The flowers on the grass on the dirt that lies beneath my feet as I walk and I know that without a doubt there is only one answer.
As I walk this things called life I know that I am walking and moving towards a bigger purpose a bigger plan, I know that I am yet to see anything of what will really come out of my life.
At times I feel like I am underneath the ice just cracking the surface of what lies ahead, I know the future is great and I know without a doubt that I know the answer to the single heart cry of the lost and the broken of this world, for I too have once been there.

Once broken once lost once walking thinking I was in the light but knowing there must have been more that is why i keep walking, keep trying that is why I keep falling over but having the determination to keep walking.
My life without God is all to fresh in my mind, I can close my eyes and it is right there the hurt the pain the emptiness, the loneliness. The life without Grace the life without truth and the life without freedom.
I certainly do not dwell on it but I certainly remember I don't believe I should ever forget where I have come from, where I have walked what I have seen and what I have felt.
I now know that I am free from all of that, it tries to haunt me call me back even has the nerve to try and tell me I Was better off, a evil trick of the enemy that so many fall for.

But I know that truth I know freedom I know that I will never fall away I know to much to turn the other way.
What I have received what I continue to receive is AMAZING, INCREDIBLE at times leaves me speechless!! My God is a big God my God he can do all things I surrender all to my King of Kings and Lord of Lords!!
