Excerpt from my book.

Matthew 17:20’s original translation says ‘if you have faith like a mustard seed’ - it never said ‘as small as’.

I have learned and am continuing to learn how to practice vulnerability in the safety of close relationships, and as a result, I am surrounded by friends who have proven over and over to be trustworthy and bring incredible strength to my life.

SETTING BOUNDARIES TO KEEP THE THIEF OUT OF YOUR LIFE! As the warm weather turns to crisp, cool mornings, we know that Fall is here. I love Fall. It’s probab...ly my favorite season of all. It’s a time of chilly mornings, leaves falling, hot cocoa and bonfires. I love it all. However, it is also a busy time. A time to prepare for the winter that is surely to come. Therefore, when the weather began to turn, I took a walk around my property to see what I needed to take care of in preparing for winter. While walking around, I couldn’t help but take note at the many improvements that have been made this year. Most of them were designed to keep the critters and the pests at bay. To make sure they couldn’t get under the house or the building on my property. All these things were fairly simple fixes; however, they made a world of difference. These improvements have already been a blessing and I could see clearly how they would continue to be throughout the winter. We had put up boundaries boundaries that could not be crossed. As I looked around, I heard the Lord say to me, Sometimes the best thing you can do is to keep the critters and the pests out. Pests are defined as unwanted, annoying, persistent and destructive. That’s what these animals had been to me. And I was so thankful they could not cross the boundaries we had put in place. What about the pests in our spiritual life? Do we have proper boundaries in place to keep them at bay? Or do we allow them to roam freely in our life? John 10:10 tells us, The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. Anything that comes into your life to stealto killor to be destructive can be considered a pest. These are the very things for which we need to set boudaries. The enemy comes to steal our faith, our peace and our confidence in God. His agenda has not changed since the Garden of Eden. He comes to tempt us to question what God has said in His word or in His promises to us. If he can get us to do that, he has already won the battle. We must resist him firm in the faith. (1 Peter 1:9) His ultimate plan is to kill. We cannot buy into his lies. Remember, God told Adam and Eve in Genesis 2:17, But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die. The day we allow the enemy to cross boundaries and convince us to agree with him and question God, we begin to die spiritually again, we must resist him steadfast in the faith. Finally, the enemy comes to destroy. He is viciously destructive. Destructive in the Strong’s Concordance is defined as; destruction, ruin, loss, perishing; eternal ruin. It also means to cut off (entirely) from what could or should have been. Think about that for a moment, the thief comes to completely cut you off from what should have been from your destiny in God. We cannot allow that to happen! We must create boundaries today. My friends, do not allow things to remain in your life that come to steal, kill and destroy. Do whatever it takes to remove them and limit their access to you. Set boundaries that you will not allow those pests to cross over. Let’s make sure we enter into this new season, pest and critter free. Kim Potter, A New Thing Ministries Appoint My Days God, I thank You that You generously provide everything I need. I thank You that according to Your Word, I have more than enough so that I can share my extra with the those in need. And every time this occurs, I’ll remember and proclaim Your faithfulness. 2 Corinthians 9:8-9 Kim Potter, A New Thing Ministries

As the mature sons of God we must all come up higher and get a NEW PERSPECTIVE! Living together in community requires honesty and confrontation. It also requir...es the development of new skill sets and muscles to walk it out in a loving way. It’s time to rise up and look like the Family that Jesus modeled for us... so that we can be about our Father’s business!!! We will best succeed at doing this, by seeing the situation right in front of us through God’s lens... from our seated position with Christ!!! God loves all of His children, and when we see through His eyes, we will learn to value each and every person and perspective. So let’s all ask ourselves how can we honor every person involved when conflict arises!

Weekend Blessing: May God reset your perspective this weekend. You’re not called to do everything, be everything, or even see everything. You are called to keep... your gaze fixed on God alone. Don’t look at all of your problems all at once; instead, look at ONE of His promises all of the time until you’ve made it your own. God’s Word is living and breathing, active and powerful. God’s Word holds life, wisdom and revelation for you. Search until you find them. It’s time to reset your perspective. God has peace for you here. He has joy for you here. He has provision for you in this place. Look to Him and you’ll find life again. May you spend the rest of your life getting to know the love of God and the promises of God. May you spend every moment seeking the face of God. He deserves your trust. He’s a good God. It’s impossible for Him to fail you. #SusieLarsonBlessings 1 John 3:1-3 ~ See how very much our Father loves us, for he calls us his children, and that is what we are! But the people who belong to this world don’t recognize that we are God’s children because they don’t know him. Dear friends, we are already God’s children, but He has not yet shown us what we will be like when Christ appears. But we do know that we will be like Him, for we will see Him as He really is. And all who have this eager expectation will keep themselves pure, just as He is pure.

I Hear His Whisper...Just breathe. You don’t have to strive to hear my voice or feel my presence. You aren’t required to do anything. No need to stress over whe...ther you’ve heard me. All you need to do is believe I’m with you. That’s it. That’s all I requirefor you to believe despite what you see or feel. To simply let go and exist in this moment with me. Be still. Know I’m with you even if you don’t feel me. I know how to move the hearts I’ve created. You were made for my love. You were created to know my voice. You are destined to see my face. Only, don’t try to force to make it happen. Lean back into my arms, which are embracing you right now. Rest in this moment with me. I am the center of everything. I am the truth that holds it all together. I am already with you, exploding with love in the very center of your being. You don’t need to do a thing. Just be present. Just breathe. Is 30:15

You are in His possession.
