The Unlikely Missionary

 I have been in a time of Worship and Praise since early this morning and for the last 3 hours I've been listening to Israel Houghton's Feels Like Home. It has been blessing me. But the very last song was the Hymn of Breakthough. There has been such a shift in my mindset, in my expectancy of God in the last almost 20 days. I'm expecting a breakthough or even breakthrough. The lyrics say, I hear the sound of breakthough, my breakthrough is here. Everything that I need You supply. Every promise of Heaven is mine. But the words that spoke to my spirit, I am healed, I am free God has spoken I agree My breakthrough is here God has spoken, I agree. God has spoken, I agree. God has spoken, I agree. God has spoken, I agree. Let the words follow over you, let in seep to you Soul so that you know, God has a breakthrough for. No matter what you are going through, no matter the sitution. God said, God said your breakthrough is here. Stand i...

Today is Good Friday! We generally are happy to see Friday come but today is especially special for those of us who know and serve the LIVING God. 2,000+ years ago Jesus died tonight but we don't serve a dead Savior. We serve a RISEN God He is alive and deserving of our praise today. So I'm leaving this praise break with you today because the spirit of the Lord came down and dwelt among us and we have life because of it. We stand in awe of Him today.  Hallelujah! Not by might Not by power By your spirit God Send your spirit God You are the fire We are the temple You are the voice We are your song You are our God We are your people You are the light We stand in awe We stand in awe of you Not by might Not by power By your spirit Send your spirit God You called us out Out of the darkness Into your love , into your light Grace upon grace Beauty for ashes You come to us. We come alive We stand in awe of you We stand in awe of you Not by mi...

God is an AWESOME GOD! This song is sung by two of the most beautiful voices and its a testament to why the praises that we sing to the Lord are more beautiful to him than the songs that the angels sing. Be blessed by this beautiful heralding of the birth of our Saviors birth.   Oh holy night the stars are brightly shining It is the night of our dear Savior's birth Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth Long lay the world in sin and error pining A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices For yonder breaks a new glorious morn Fall on your knees Hear the angels' voices  This is the night when Christ was born Fall on your knees Fall on your knees Fall on your knees Fall on your knees Fall on your knees Oh holy night, Oh night divine The Unlikely Missionary DHW

Music has a way of moving me more than anything else can. As I sat at my desk listening to this song the Holy Spirit guided me to share this with you. Feel the Holy Spirit in the words.   All I want to hear God tell me when my time on this earth comes to an end is - Damaris you ran the race, you kept the fight, My Child, Well Done! That's why I do what I do. ♮Take me home with you my lord  When my life is through  Take me home with peace my lord Let me rest with you  When I've fought the fight  And I've kept the faith  And my race on earth is won  All I ask is that you say well done♮  ♮Lord please let me hear you say well done ♮ Amen! The Unlikely Misionary DHW

Many people have many different ideas of Jesus but do you believe that he is the great I AM? The Messiah, the Savior? The ultimate sacrifice? He is all those things. What matter is, Do you believe that?  Confess. Believe. Be Saved. Be blessed! The Unlikely Missionary DHW Was he a poet turned Radical politician Trying to start a revolution A preacher on a mission Talkin bout fishing In a new kind of kingdom Or a small town wannabe tired Of carpentry Carving out a little fame John or Elijah, teacher, Messiah Or just someone trying to Make a name Could the one we know as Mary's son Be the long awaited Holy One So you're a cynic Oh, well I get it It's hard to trust what you Can't see You've been broken How can you hope in Or believe in a mystery Oh, you oughta know, gotta Know where you stand Who do you say that I am Who do you say that I am Two thousand years counting, The question's still mounting The answer's still A mus...

We are talking the Gift of Relationship and this has to be one on my favorite songs by Anointed. It's saying Take Me Back because God has never left us, we walked away and the amazing things about God is that He is always willing and able to take us back. ♯♭I don't love you like I used to When nothing came between my god and me And somehow it seems I've lessened my dependence And wonder why it's not the way it used to be But I'm ready to learn how to faithfully love you With my heart, my soul and my mind Take me back, take me back To the time I fell in love I don't serve you like I used to 'Cause I'm too busy serving me And I don't spend the time with you I need to And wonder why my soul cannot find peace ♭ But I'm ready to learn how to faithfully serve you With my hands, my life and my time Take me back, take me back To the time I fell in love (Take me back, take me back, take me back there) In ...

The earth was new, a great frontier The perfect place to spread his fear So satan set up shop to draw them in Bright lights to display all his wares "Come on in, forget your cares" That devil knew just how to package sin People came from far and wide Not a guilty soul denied But before they knew they'd been deceived They'd step inside and never leave They said his eyes were black as coal His voice a shudder to the soul He preyed upon the broken and the proud He told them they were lost for good No one loved them and who would Before too long he owned that fallen town And from inside the gates they'd wail: Who can save us from this hell? And as their hopes turned into tears He laughed and all his demons stood and cheered Then down a dirt road from the east Came one, they said, could slay the beast But did not fight with bullets or a sword They called him Mercy and at his side A thousand angels chose to ride And a...

HALLELUJAH! The gates and doors were barred  And all the windows fastened down  I spent the night in sleeplessness  And rose at every sound  Half in hope of sorrow  And half in fear the day  Would find the soldiers breakin' through  To drag us all away  And just before the sunrise  I heard something at the wall  The gate began to rattle  And a voice began to call  I hurried to the window  Looked down into the street  Expecting swords and torches  And the sound of soldiers' feet  But there was no one there but Mary  So I went down to let her in  John stood there beside me  As she told me where she'd been  She said they've moved Him in the night  And none of us know where  The stone's been rolled away  And now His body isn't there  We both ran towards the garden  Then John ran on ahead  We fou...

🎵The Great I Am, I worship You With reverence I stand In awe of You I love this song because it is so worshipful and it reminds me that there is NOTHING that can separate me from my Savior. 🎵Where can I go from Your spirit,Where can I flee from You If I go up to the Heavens, I lie in the depths, You're there too No matter our circumstances I am comforted in knowing that God knew me before I was born, that He living formed me in my mother's womb and my life including my choices are not a surprise to Him. 🎵You created my inmost being Before I was born You thought me I'm fearfully and wonderfully made And I praise Your name Finally, I'm so blessed that God looks at my heart when so many only look at who they think am I am. God know who I am. 🎵Search me O God, and know my heart Test me and know my anxious thoughts See if there is any offensive way In me Lead me into the path of Life

Sometimes when life starts to close in on me God always find a way to reassure me that everything will be ok. Today it came in the form of a song from my sister. Being a follower of Christ doesn't mean that you don't worry about things. It means that when the worries come you have someone that you can turn to and He will ALWAYS provide what we need. That is His promise and being reminded of that meant everything to me this morning. So listen to Tamela and be encouraged because God does and ALWAYS will provide. The Unlikely Missionary DHW

I am the one, yes, I created the whole universe Greater than anything in heaven and in all the earth It's my air you breathe, so I'm the one that you should please I am the one you need, why should you be alone? I am that I am, I'm all that you need I can, yes, I can, no, it ain't too hard for me Do you know, really know, do you really believe? Every day, every night of your life, I am It hurts my heart indeed to see those whom I love in need Knowing all I wonder, why they never call on me If you just ask and I can satisfy you with the things I'll give you everything, yes, you can have it all I tell the sun to rise, the wind to blow, the rain to fall I move the mountains and the oceans, rivers great and small Yes, everything I made I want to hear them give me praise Especially you, my children each and every day I am that I am, I'm all that you need I can, yes, I can, no, it ain't too hard for me Do you know, ...

In light of what has been transpired I think we just need to be reminded of this sentiment, Love God, Love People Israel Houghton is a favorite artist of mine and this song is just a great summation that we just need to love each other. It has a great beat too. So enjoy today's praise break. The Unlikely Missionary, DHW

In our lives it is easy to feel enslaved. To your job, by the government, by money, by your fears, by your own mind. I know I can get stuck in the trap of feeling like life is closing in and there is no way out. And then I'm reminded that God has set me free. As a child of the Most High God,  Galatians 5:1 (The MSG) says, Christ has set us free to live a free life.  So take your stand!  Never again let anyone put a harness of slavery on you. I AM FREE! Let Paul's words be a reminder in these uncertain times that you are free, so stand firm in that. __________________________________________________________________________________ Bethel Music has this great song which is the title and inspiration for this post. Whenever you feel bound listen to this song, read its words and come to know the freedom that exists through accepting the wonderful gift of salvation from our Wonderful Savior, Jesus Christ!  Be Blessed!

Sometimes I hear a song that ushers me into the kingdom of God no matter where I am or what I am doing. And I have to stop and worship the Lord. That just happened when this song came on my Pandora playlist. It says From the darkness came the light, Out of nothingness you made life For before the world you were, Bless your name forevermore. Lord according to your plan, You created every man, Just to glorify you and Bless your name forevermore Then into the world you came, By the power of your name, And you washed my sins away, Bless your name forevermore. So i come before your throne Through no goodness of my own And i worship you alone, Bless your name forevermore I will bless your name(x2) I will bless your name forevermore I will bless your name(x2) I will bless your name forevermore -Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir Enjoy!

I love basically anything Israel Houghton & New Breed and this song always makes me dance in my seat. Enjoy!

I love the song Awesome God but one of my favorite renditions has to be the one sung by Helen Baylor. She has one of the most beautiful, powerful and sultry altos I've ever heard. And when she sings I feel the presence of the Lord. So take this moment for this praise break and worship the Lord. The Unlikely Likely Missionary DHW

Happy New Year Everyone! There will be obstacles or mountains that we will face this year. Even time I hear, have sung or performed this song the Spirit of the Lord is activated in me to let me know, "Damaris God is with you and He will bring you over it so praise Him!" The Lord is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in him - Nahum 1:7       It is in our praise that we experience the victory and blessings of God. It starts with reflecting on all the mountains He has already brought you over. The trials He has brought you through. The enemies He has removed from your path. The strongholds He has broken. And the praise bubbles up. You are blessed by the blessings you have already experienced. And your confidence in God is strengthened because if He has done it before He can do it again. So as you listen, be blessed, reflect on what He has done and praise the true and living God for His love, faithfulness, and His presence...
