The Vision comes to Pass

2Corinthians 8:23 As for Titus, he is my partner who works with me on your behalf; and the other brothers with him are emissaries of the congregations and bring honor to the Messiah.

It is time for us to step out of our comfort zone and let God bless us and others as we believe for His Provision. We are starting our own ministry called Missionaries2Marriages. We will be ministering by doing Marriage Seminars and Conferences all over the world. We will be working with like minded ministries and networking to build families and marriages. We have a vision to not let God be limited by what we think but agree with Him in how He wants to use us. We are asking the Lord to use our 28 years of experience ministering to marriages and families in new ways. We will be building a network of Partners that are called to help us in prayer and finances. If you want to be involved or know more please e mail us at jsdemott@gmail.com.

A new Vision for a New Season!: Provision for the Vision

Provision for the Vision

1 Kings 17:17-24

King James Version (KJV)

17 And it came to pass after these things, that the son of the woman, the mistress of the house, fell sick; and his sickness was so sore, that there was no breath left in him.

18 And she said unto Elijah, What have I to do with thee, O thou man of God? art thou come unto me to call my sin to remembrance, and to slay my son?

19 And he said unto her, Give me thy son. And he took him out of her bosom, and carried him up into a loft, where he abode, and laid him upon his own bed.

20 And he cried unto the Lord, and said, O Lord my God, hast thou also brought evil upon the widow with whom I sojourn, by slaying her son?

21 And he stretched himself upon the child three times, and cried unto the Lord, and said, O Lord my God, I pray thee, let this child's soul come into him again.

22 And the Lord heard the voice of Elijah; and the soul of the child came into him again, and he revived.

23 And Elijah took the child, and brought him down out of the chamber into the house, and delivered him unto his mother: and Elijah said, See, thy son liveth.

24 And the woman said to Elijah, Now by this I know that thou art a man of God, and that the word of the Lord in thy mouth is truth.

    So the Lord caused the woman's previous obedience in feeding the Prophet to lay in wait for a time that He would release blessings on her and her household. The Lord also used the faith of the Prophet to speak out a miracle. Take the rest of this story to the Lord and ask Him to bring to your remembrance a time or times that you did the same and how down the road you or a member of your household was saved, healed or delivered from a trap of the devil because of that previous obedience and spoken word of Faith. Maybe right now you may be ready to step into your future and fear of the unknown has you bound. Remember the Lord supplies the provision for the vision He has given you, so right now we agree with you and the Lord and declare that you are set free of all that holds you back and ask Gods provision and protection as you step out into His vision!

A New Vision for a New Season

1 Kings 17:13-16

13 And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast said: but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son.

14 For thus saith the Lord God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that the Lord sendeth rain upon the earth.

15 And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, did eat many days.

16 And the barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of oil fail, according to the word of the Lord, which he spake by Elijah.

There are two principles in operation here, faith and obedience. If we notice the scripture does not say that the Lord filled the woman with faith so she could be obedient or that her obedience built her faith. She just did what she heard the Prophet say and walked in faith and obedience together to eat for "many days". It truly started a new season in her life and stored up a blessings for the future.

Provision for the Vision

1Kings17:10-12

10 So he arose and went to Zarephath. And when he came to the gate of the city, behold, the widow woman was there gathering of sticks: and he called to her, and said, Fetch me, I pray thee, a little water in a vessel, that I may drink.

11 And as she was going to fetch it, he called to her, and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thine hand.

12 And she said, As the Lord thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but an handful of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a cruse: and, behold, I am gathering two sticks, that I may go in and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die.

Now you can see that the Prophet had faith where the woman did not. The woman only had faith that she had enough to eat to then die. And here is the Prophet asking her to feed him. So again think of what we said before about the gifts that we all bring to the table to make the cake. Some will sacrifice finances to bring those gifts. Some will be gifts of love and talent and time. But all will be the pro before the vision, the provision. As you read this take it day by day and pray. See what the Lord says to you at this time.
