4 Oaks Goes to Lima, Peru!

You who dwell in the gardens with friends in attendance, let me hear your voice! Song of Songs 8:13

4 Oaks is preparing for Peru! A great time of ministry to women and moving forward with what was only a dream 2 years ago is coming up in January. 

We have so much to do to finish but I'm right in the middle of conquering the inner voices of doubt and fear, the little foxes that ruin the vine. (Song of Songs 2:15)

In the midst of the mountain of preparation, I realize that it's the reaffirming faith in Him and in His Word that enforces the triumph and victory of our Lord Jesus Christ in everything.

I'm asking Him to sanctify my ears, making them sensitive to hear what is holy and right.  Giving me the ability to remove myself from anything that would distract me from my focus.

To hear what He wants to say not what my flesh wants to hear.  Ears that are anointed to hear His voice with clear discernment. 

In Exodus 29, God had Moses cover Aaron by putting the blood on his right ear, thumb and toe. The ear to hear clearly and not be deceived, the thumb, so what he laid his hands to would be right and blessed and toe so that everywhere he went would be blessed and sanctified. 

I know this is God's desire for each of us and it's my prayer and declaration in faith today as we prepare for Peru.

I, even I, have spoken; yes, I have called him (her).  I will bring him (her), and he (she) will succeed in his (her) mission.. Isaiah 48:15 Amen!
