Good morning,   

Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away. I desire you, and only you. Come and linger in the sheltered secret place and be enamored always with My love for you. I will lavish you with all that I have kept for you, my overflowing goodness. My heart’s treasure is to fill you with wholeness and soundness.  Stay in the place of readiness and preparation. I Am coming soon to take you away. Be ready against that day. We are yearning for you to behold all that we have prepared for you, to take delight in your delight. Do not let or allow the activities of life side track you from your journey back home. Home with me is where you belong. Your assignments on earth are almost completed and over. I need your affection and attention to be single-minded. I sense your desire is towards Me. You are coming into your place of being a mature bride. Ready to do the greater works that will give Me all glory. The finishing touches are being applied. This will be our grandest hour. The light will shine brighter in the darkest days ahead. What was once a small light shall now outshine all eras.  We are taking in the greatest harvest of souls, my love. Together in My name it will be accomplished. The greatest power is released from love. Our love for one another will accomplish these great works in the days ahead. While the world quakes in fear and in darkness, you will arise in love and light. Go forth my love and let us finish what I started. Stay sensitive to My voice, for I Am giving you instructions that will put you over the top, both spiritually and naturally. So follow Me and stay true to My Word. Forever, we will be together loving and enjoying each other! Stay alert and ready.

Good morning,

This is the season where my warriors will be able to do more harm to the kingdom of darkness, than ever before. As they have gone through the valleys, they have come out trusting Me, their great Warrior. Many for the first time in their walk with Me, have experienced Me as their personal bravery. They have awakened from the slumber that this world system lulled them into. Now they truly begin to see My Word work in their affairs. I have been a Father, a Provider, a Counselor, a Healer, a Friend and a Lover to them. They have stretched themselves during the difficulties that they were challenged by, and found out that the Greater One keeps every promise. I have overshadowed them, so that the darts of the wicked one did not destroy them. They arose and soared higher than they thought was possible, acquiring new levels of faith and more sensitivity to My presence. They chose to stay disciplined as they went through the fire and the flood. My warriors have come out, delivered, set free, loosed and changed. Stronger and braver still, against all of the forces of the enemy. They do not fear, or run from adversities, but use the storms of life to cause them to mount up higher. For I, the Lord have strengthened them and hardened them to difficulties, and with each one, it has become easier for My warriors to face the next battles. This bravery and strength was born out of those hard places as they trusted in El-Gibbor. Oh, I have taken such delight in these warriors! They have learned to do My Word at all times, yes, even when it wasn’t easy. Joy, is found in My house at all times, and My warriors have found
deeper joy in Me.  Trusting Me has brought a calm assurance and great joy.  Now they know Me, truly know Me as the Faithful One. The enemy is shaken by this revelation. My people humbled themselves and depended on Me, not in their own ability or in their strength. This season is a great spiritual battle and they are not neglecting their full armor. They have stood face to face against the forces of darkness and withstood them by My grace. They must not turn in retreat, for cowards will perish.

Every warrior that is truly Mine, cannot love this world, nor his own personal comforts more than their obligation to this great armed forces that they have enlisted in. This is a serious season for serious warriors. I have given them a brave and courageous spirit and a persistent heart. They are determined to keep faithful to the end. With this kind of heart, an increase of revelations will flow into their lives. For this committed remnant of believers shall come forth with a greater degree of the miraculous in their personal lives. The enemy thought he would have you on the run, yet, after all of the smoke clears, there you stand.  Standing in the power of your God and His personal bravery. My brave courageous warriors who walk in the fear of their God and in the revelation that there is no weapon formed against them that will prosper. They boldly declare and decree it and the wicked one flees, yes, he runs from them. For great is the army that carries out My Word.

 Love,

Good morning,

I must apologize for not being present. I will explain what has been going on in our lives here at Hesed Ministries. We have gone through transitions that called upon each of us to  come forth as warriors. I’d like to think that we graduated and moved to the next level, that’s what I would like to think. Whether we did or not God is the final judge on that. Either way after the smoke cleared, we’re still standing!

My husband for 52 years transitioned to glory on March 2nd. He had fought a good fight against sickness and disease since the first of January. He went home to be with his Lord and Savior surrounded by his church, we were worshiping his Father and ours as he took his last breath on this side of heaven. All of the body at Hesed, and his family and friends miss his person here on earth. We know the scripture tells us not to be ignorant concerning those who are asleep, that we sorrow not as those who have no hope. (1 Thessalonians 4:13) 

We marched on as we held each other’s hands up. 

While Mike, my husband was in the hospital, I had been scheduled for a heart ablation and a Watchmen procedure. I was in great health other than the AFIB.I went into surgery fully persuaded that all was well. While I was in recovery my blood pressure dropped to 40/15 and continued to decline. We continued to believe God no matter what we saw. They transferred me to ICU. I was there for two days as they ran all kinds of tests to try and locate the issue. They thought it was because my cortisol levels were low. They gave me steroids to help raise my blood pressure. I was able to go home on the third day. It was only suppose to be a day surgery. I am not relaying this information for empathy, no, not all, I just want you to understand that we have an enemy who wants to kill, steal, and destroy, but Jesus came to give us life more abundantly. This happened in February while my husband was in another hospital standing for his life. He saw a glimpse of glory and departed his earthly tent, (2 Corinthians 5:1, “For we know that if our earthly house, this tabernacle, were dissolved, we have a building of God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens”)

After these tests, trials, and tribulations more was to be had, I was at the hospital again in May. They took an MRI, and just as non- caring as they could  they told me that I had a mass that looked like a tumor. That Dr. told me that I need to see my primary care doctor stat (quickly). I did. God swooped in and gave me supernatural faith, it was beyond me. I was walking in a holy capsule.  It was Philippians 4:7 -“The peace of God which transcends all understanding, that guards your hearts and your minds through Christ Jesus,” that kind of holy capsule.

You know that My primary care doctor got in touch with the most caring team of doctors. The Inova Schar Cancer Institute. I told her that I didn’t believe it was cancerous or a tumor. To my shock, she said I will agree with you.  So in July, 4 months after my husband went to be with the Lord and 5 months after my heart procedure and serous episode there, I had another surgery to remove the mass. It was benign, it wasn’t a tumor, it was a cyst! The Dr, said it had shriveled up inside me. After this surgery my blood pressure plummeted 2 days later the day I was expected to come home. I was moved to ICU for 2 days and ministered life saving meds. God is merciful! I thank God for all of the prayer warriors, my family, and friends for all of their support. Thank God for the body, the family of God, I love those people.

The next month, in August, I received a devastating call that my sister, who  was 2 years younger than me had suddenly died. They determined through an autopsy that she had a stroke. I was in shock! I  talked to my sister most everyday, She lived in Dallas, Texas. I am still processing her passing. 

Now, the final part of the year 2025 is as hard as my husband graduating and my sister’s sudden death. God reminded me that I was not called to be a pastor, I knew this but I was going to do my best to keep the ministry going. I worked along with my husband to be a helpmeet in ministry. I didn’t think I could take anymore changes.. I cried a little everyday from October to December. We closed Hesed Ministries December 28th. We were in ministry for 29 years. Yes, it was like a death. I and the body at Hesed are recovering. But we have God’s promises: Ecclesiastes 7:8, “Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof..”Isaiah 43:19,”Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall you not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.”

We are determined to be like our example of faith. Our man of God was faithful, dedicated, and loved God and His people.  We will continue the blog and see what else the Father has in store for us. So please pray for the people of Hesed Ministries and I also desire your prayers. We are victorious. 2 Corinthians 4:7-9; “We have this treasure in earthern vessels, that the excellence of the power may be of God, and not of us. We are hard pressed on every side, yet not crushed, we are perplexed but not in despair, persecuted but not forsaken, struck down, but not destroyed, always carrying about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus Christ, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body.” And remember, “for whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world. And this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith!” (1 John 5:4) Our Father always has a way of turning what the enemy meant for our harm to our good. Let’s see what new thing God will do!

Love,

Pastor D.

Good morning,

This is what I see in the realm of the spirit; that heaven is about to kiss earth. To make a difference in this atmosphere, those that are for Christ will begin to worship Him, to honor Him, to live for Him, to exhaust every effort in their being to proclaim His name. 

This is a shift for most people, those who have been just sitting in the pews, they will either be on fire consumed by the desire to represent heaven, or they will no longer serve Me. This is a shift, says the Spirit of grace and mercy, for this great anointing shall rest upon My people, and a desire shall consume their very being. They will be overwhelmed with the desire and the longing to see Me come, and because they long for Me to come, I will stand at attention and listen and hearken to their cry, and because of this longing, there will be a separation between those who are mine and those who are not. Those who have been in the house, who have been tares, who have been pulling away at the wheat that have been growing up in the house of the Lord shall begin to burn away.  They shall be burned as fire burns and fall away. But those who are called by Me, who are anointed by Me, who have allowed themselves to be set apart by Me; they shall run as if set on fire, and there shall be a great distinction between them, and there shall be an anointing that rests upon them and heaven will avail themselves to their prayers and their words, all heaven and earth have longed for this moment where the sons and daughters rise up. Things will come to pass at the beckoning of their words, because heaven has kissed earth, and a great thing shall come to pass in the days ahead. Fire shall begin to consume My people, and they will stand as brands in the midst of the world, and the world will recognize and know that there is a great difference between them and My people. You will fully walk in your royal priesthood and be the holy nation, and My peculiar people, There will be no longer people hiding, not in the kingdom, but their mouth shall open and they will declare even before they know what they are about to say, it will come forth because deep on the inside of them, I have been implanted My very self in them. My kingdom come, My will be done on earth as it is in heaven. They are right now beginning to live for Me and exhaust their very being for Me. This is the hour, harvest time is upon us, and a great anointing shift shall take place and people have prophesied for years of this shift, but it is about to take place. Never before has it been known or never before has it been seen, because then says the Spirit of grace, shall My people be known. Great anointing shall rest upon them, causing them to run on. 

Love,

Pastor D.

Good morning,

I have been meditating on Genesis 5:22, “Enoch walked in [habitual fellowship] with God after the birth of Methuselah 300 years and had other sons and daughters.” I know this is an allegory. Enoch is compared to the end-time “raptured” church. Just think, we need to be a people that walk in habitual fellowship. Let’s look at these words, habitual and fellowship. First, we must understand that Enoch didn’t become a recluse in order to walk in habitual fellowship. He did not stop having relationship with others [for he had more sons and daughters, that takes relationship]. He ended up spending the majority of his time with the One whose company he enjoyed the most.  Habitual means acquired by custom or frequent repetition of the same act; formed by repeated impressions; rendered permanent by continued action or use; made familiar by frequent practice.

Before I was a Christian, I use to smoke cigarettes, take drugs and curse like it was an official language. I practiced these things just by frequent use and continued acts. After the initial start of them, I just did them everyday. It wasn’t anything that I had to give too much thought to after a while. It became as natural as breathing. You know you don’t have to go around saying to yourself, don’t forget to breathe (unless, you have a illness). Well, by repeating the same action over and over again, day in and day out, it becomes a habitual practice.  Cursing spilled out as if I had stayed up all night trying to put those vulgar words together, but I hadn’t. I perfected it by frequent use.

Keeping that in mind, think about our relationship with God the same way.  In the beginning when you first became a Christian, you had to start reading your Bible and initiate prayer and worship to God. You were starting a fresh new habit. After a while of being in frequent practice and continued use, it should be natural for you to pray, read your Bible and worship God. Practicing the presence of God, walking and talking with Him all day long, living a life of prayer and worship should become a habit. God is soooo good and His company is sweet. It’s so simple that we often try to make it difficult with all of our man-made rules. In the end they frustrate the purpose of God and we end up with religion and not relationship. Do you time your conversation with a close friend?  Do you talk only once a day to your child, your mate, your buddy? It becomes a duty instead of developing a Godly habit. No, I talk to my daughter about three or four times a day, I do the same with my husband and my closest friend. I have never timed our conversations. And if it wasn’t for my cell phone that does time my phone calls, I would never know how long I’ve been on the phone. Why? Usually, I enjoy our talks!  When was the last time you just enjoyed talking to God? So, the first thing we have to do is stop putting God on a time-clock. Second thing, just lean back and let ‘er rip, enjoy God. He is the One who started relationships after all. I imagine He knows how to form a good habit with you also. He’s quite entertaining, gifted, knowledgeable, unique and incredible in His ability to make you feel comfortable around Him. I really like Him, as well as love Him.

I believe that is what Enoch discovered. That God was so awe-inspiring, so positive and just plain likable. Enoch couldn’t get enough of God. That brings us to the next word, fellowship. Fellowship means companionship, familiar company, a state of being together, intimate familiarity, frequency of intercourse – [connection; communication or exchange; a passing between].  This fellowship is developed by frequent use or continual acts of simply talking to God.  God is so awesome, just think, He can converse in any language, so He is accessible to everyone. He made us, so He knows all about why we are the way we are and He knows how to straighten out the crooked places in us. Yet He wants us to get to know Him and hang around Him. He knows the issues of all of mankind, the roots of them, and how to get rid of the roots. Who else knows all that about you, and still wants to be intimate with you? If most people knew everything about you (even your thoughts), you would be by yourself.

Yes, we must become a generation of Enoch’s. The only way is to let the love of God teach you the way to “walk in habitual fellowship” with God. He is coming for those who are so in love with Him that they can’t get enough of Him. Right where you are, forgive yourself for trying to do it man’s way, now let Holy Spirit show you the way. You will delight to walk all day in the presence of God, that’s habitual fellowship. It will be said of all of us, “and they were not, for God took them home with Him.”

Love,

Pastor D.

Good morning,

I have given to each and every one of you a part to complete the Body. That is why there are many facets of Me in every part of My Body, in every part that represents Me. I have been waiting for you to step into what I have called you to, into things that are just beginning, and it seems like it is almost the ending. That is the natural man point of view. My giftings and callings are supernatural, I Am super abundantly above those things. I will complete what I start. I finish everything that I start, and I will complete in you those things that I have begun to do in you. I Am clearing those things out that are not like Me, and sometimes for most of My children, it takes years of marinating and staying in My Word to remove those things because they have been hemmed in, chained in and locked into you. It takes years of sitting in My Word, staying in My Word, to remove those curses, those chains, and those bars that keep you from being pliable in My hand. But as you stay in My word, you become more pliable every time. You are yielding more. Others cannot see it because sometimes it looks like nothing has shifted in you, but I Am working constantly. As you yield, I work with yielded vessels, and as long as you yield to Me, I will work with you. I Am doing super abundantly above all that you have asked or even dreamed or thought that I could do. I Am doing it in you. I Am making you just like Me. You are beginning to think like Me, act like Me, say what I say, and the more that you do, the more you will become accustomed to who I Am in you. Allow Me to do those things. Do not work against Me as I do those things, allow Me, let Me, and you will be amazed at who you really are, because I stand in awe of everything that I have made, and I Am not through accomplishing My will in you. Allow Me to finish what I start.

Love, 

Pastor D.

Good morning,

This is a Word that we received from the Lord ten years ago, I heard it again in my heart. Let’s yield ourselves to the Father more. Something supernatural, yet even unusual for those of us who are His is upon the horizon. Let’s be ready to take our position, we will not let this season pass, we will be fruitful!

There is a “sonic boom”, that is about to be heard and felt.  A supernatural sound that will shake the world, but the greatest effect will be heard and felt in My house.  I am going to shake My “fruit” trees to get all that is ripe and ready to be enjoyed by Me and others.  Those who have been pruned by Me time and time again.  I have covered them and blanketed My “fruit” trees, so that the heat and drought could not keep them from producing.  These “fruit” trees have been yielding to the work of My hands, hands that are gentle and firm.  I am firm in that I have kept them from withering from the heat of living and My gentleness hasmade them great.  In the days ahead they will provide the same kind of shade and covering for others that I gave to them.  The lost, and even those who have trusted in their own strength, who dwell in My house, will begin crying for covering from the heat of their lives.  You, My yielded “fruit” trees that have been growing almost unnoticed by those around you.  You have gathered strength, stability, wisdom and insight from staying close to Me.  Now, when it is least expected you will stretch out your branches to all those who are being burnt by their own ways.  To them it will look like you grew suddenly, yet all along you have yielded to Me and My ways, growing stronger, little by little.  I have been preparing you for this season.  It is your time to shine!  So arise and let all see what I have done in you.  Let them come and taste of you and see that the Lord is good.  This “sonic boom” will blast through the darkness, causing great light to shine bringing fresh understanding for you.  It will blast away the gloom and break your atmosphere into the songs of the angels that surround you.  The difficulties that you have experienced will be made into stairways of light and glory.  You will get the revealing words and information that I have been speaking to you all this time, but it was hard for you to hear.  I have enlarged you, so stretch out!  Rapidly, as the sonic boom makes quick changes, so it will be for you My faithful ” fruit” trees.  You have come forth for your prepared time! 

 We are in that season.  Where sin abounds, grace abounds more and more!  (Romans 5:20).  Grace, God’s ability covering our inability.  We are now super abounding, by faith.  

Love,

Pastor D.

Good morning,

Timing is nigh at hand, and it is so critical for My people to rise up and declare what I have spoken to them. The words that I have put in their heart, the things that I have prepared for them to do before they were ever known. This is their time to walk with Me, to declare what I have spoken to them, to devotedly live for Me.  Allowing the world to see how it is that they have overcome and are submitted to the Kingdom of the living God. Many will become convicted, convicted of their own sin, convicted of their own hardness of heart, convicted of the things that hold them back from surrendering their lives to Me. They will come to the Kingdom because of your holy committed  lifestyle and because of the words you speak and declare of the Kingdom. So do not be afraid of the enemy. This is the time to shine forth and declare, for lives are held in the balance, waiting for the sons of God to appear on the scene and declare what My living Word declares.  Will you be that people? Will you declare exactly what I placed in you and called you forth for? Every moment I have been preparing you for this present darkness. Who lives with you and dwells in you, leads and guides you into the very truth that you must declare? I do. The Lord your Father, the Mighty God, the Mighty warrior, soon coming Deliverer. So no longer be afraid of men’s faces, but declare what I have given you, be bold, be righteous, be holy, for the time is drawing close. Arise and shine for the glory of the Lord is risen upon you.

September 26, 2025 – Ears to Hear/Hearts to Obey

Good Morning,

During difficult times, David chose to hope and praise God afresh and again.  Listen to Jesus as He tells us  the climate during the times of the end.  “Sin will be rampant everywhere and the love of many will grow cold.  But the one who endure to the end shall be saved.” (Matt. 24:12,13).

    We must not let our hope be put off to some future day, we must place hope, fresh, new hope everyday in God and in His Word.  He gives us fresh new mercies every morning, so we ought to offer God the same.  Mercies for hope!!  Jesus said those who endure—-{to undergo patiently, tarry, have fortitude, never give up, to stay and abide} to the end shall be saved.  This world depicts the attitude of a person who is under a heavy load but refuses to surrender to defeat, because he knows he is in his place.  “Endure suffering along with me, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.  Soldiers don’t get tied up in the affairs of civilian life, for then they cannot please the officer who enlisted them.” (2 Timothy 2:3,4)  

We must try and keep our focus on the eternal plan of our kingdom and not get so weighted down by these present sufferings of this temporal world or our temporary situations.  The glory that is to come and the glory that is soon to be seen in the children of God will far outweigh any present sufferings, for it is temporary.  Remember the enemy is trying to get your love for God to grow cold, through outward pressures of living.  We are wiser than that!

Love,

Pastor D.
