"Hope" Living Loved Retreat

In the final moments of completing "Hope" for the Living Loved retreat - the Lord dropped down an additional message through the painting:
We should be altering atmospheres with our breath of HOPE.  AS we breath HOPE out - transformation should be our normal experience....transformation of atmospheres, hearts, lives, circumstances.
As important as it is to breath OUT HOPE< we have to remember to breath HOPE in....breath it is deep so that our DNA actually changes with the HOPE that we house. Our bodies, as tabernacles of the Most High should house the HOPE of the Lord----transforming US first.

“Therefore I am now going to allure her;
    I will lead her into the wilderness
    and speak tenderly to her.
¹⁵ There I will give her back her vineyards,
    and will make the Valley of Achor^[b] a door of hope.
There she will respond^[c] as in the days of her youth,
    as in the day she came up out of Egypt.

¹⁶ “In that day,” declares the Lord,
    “you will call me ‘my husband’;
    you will no longer call me ‘my master.^[d]’
¹⁷ I will remove the names of the Baals from her lips;
    no longer will their names be invoked.  Hosea 2: 14- 17

In the wilderness, where He has called you....the wilderness wehre it is just you and your Savior - He speaks tenderly to you.  Dont focus on the wilderness - dont focus on the circumstance - focus on the tender words of your Savior as He transforms your heart and your circumstances. 

In this place- he will transform you valley of despair into a DOOR OF HOPE--- a door you get to CHOOSE to step through.....you can stay in the despair in your wilderness- but there is a DOOR of HOPE for you to step through.  Would you step through into Hope today - into the expectation of goodness?

As you step through this door - you step into the freedom you experienced when you were loosed from bondage and slavery - no more a slave to depression, anxiety, religion, disease, addiction - He reminds you of your freedom found in Him. He brings you back to the restoration - reminds you that He paid it all - you walk in victory - you are HIS> 

No longer will these names be on your lips - no longer will you speak of depression and anxiety - no longer will you be a slave to performance and religion. Now you walk in the freedom of HOPE that dwells within you - begging to burst forth into the world!!!!
