Fit in the Plans of God

KATHY GABLER—Growing up on Abraham Avenue, playing Hopscotch and Hide-and-go-seek, Zacharias, Elizabeth, Joseph and Mary had no idea how they would fit in the plans of God and the history of man.  Amid all their lessons in history and prophecy from the Torah, they had never pictured themselves as key players in the greatest story ever told.  However, their lives were divinely positioned for the plans of God.

Lord, Open Our Eyes

MARTY GABLER—May the Lord open the eyes of His people that they be aware of chicanery and fraud before they become victim to it. May those who have fallen victim have their loss restored seven times, while those who cheat others learn the error of their ways.  “But even so, he is fined seven times as much as he stole, though it may mean selling everything in his house to pay it back.” (Prov.6:31, Living Bible)

Tools Needed for the Tool Belt

MELISSA GABLER — The last season the Lord led us through was a time of getting the tools needed for the tool belt.  It was a season of starting to ask the wise, right questions instead of the fear-driven questions.  A fear-driven question already has an answer in mind and can’t hear anything but that.  A wise question is open to hear truth.  Asking those wise questions always got an answer.  A lot of answers were personal things that needed to be dealt with in me.  This even led me to go on a fear fast (that has not ended)!

Where Anticipation is Often Sabotaged

KATHY GABLER—The Father-son relationship is where anticipation is often sabotaged.  If all we can see in the mirror is who we are now or any given moment, instead of who we were born to be, there is no anticipation because we are not thinking like our Father.  (“As a man continues to think in his heart, so is he”, Prov.23:7)  If we see ourselves as “only human” or not worthy or capable to act in our Father’s authority and power, that roots back to relationship and sonship issues.  If we have to rebuild our sense of covenant every time that doubt or condemnation or failure knocks on our door, we won’t come close to anticipation or God-outcomes.

God’s Unchanging Hand

MARTY GABLER–As the people of God assemble today may they take hold of God’s unchanging hand so that He may lead them as they press through the summer. May they trust Him daily and call on Him daily. Isa.41:10,TPT — “Do not yield to fear, for I am always near. Never turn your gaze from me, for I am your faithful God. I will infuse you with my strength and help you in every situation. I will hold you firmly with my victorious right hand.’

Proceedings Proceed to the Desired End

MARTY GABLER–May the Lord work in behalf of His people so that property sells for the price that it is worth. May buyers and sellers come together in a timely fashion. May all proceedings and closings proceed to the desired end without a hitch.   “For God-of-the-Angel-Armies, the God of Israel, says, “Life is going to return to normal. Homes and fields and vineyards are again going to be bought in this country.”’ (Jer.32:15, Msg)

God is Using Oppression to Deliver Us

MELISSA GABLER — A couple of weeks before I heard “No longer subjugated” the Lord told me that He is using this current oppression to deliver us from life-long oppression. So, when subjugation came up it was quite loud to me that He was saying we are no longer under control of decades, possibly centuries, of oppression. This is huge! This is part of the awakening. We’ve been asleep at the wheel and this explains to me why we haven’t seen great and mighty things on a larger scale that we know we are supposed to be seeing.

Don’t Let The Mountain Block The View


KATHY GABLER—Don’t Let The Mountain Block The View. As he prayed “Search me, O God, and know my heart,” (Ps.139:23) David wasn’t just praying for an examination and a test score.  He was positioned to repent.  He submitted to God knowing God’s answer or instructions would bring change in his thinking and his opinions, perhaps in his relationships and daily lifestyle. David knew he must release fear or grief or offense as God pointed them out so that those things would not block his view of God.   (martygabler.com)

The Wall of the Lord’s Protection


MARTY GABLER—May the wall of our Lord’s protection be drawn around His people today; around their property, their belongings, their good name, their accounts and passwords.  “You are all around me—in front of me and in back of me.  You lay your hand on me.” (Ps.139:5, GW)
