    Hadassah: Beauty Oil Cleansing

    I used to wash my face with dish detergent & hand soap

    Grew up below the poverty line

    Walmart face creams were luxury

    And when you heart is hemorrhaging… and all you want to do is escape the pain… you don’t really care.

    But God.

    He saved me.

    He pulled me out of the trash heap.

    Too much is given, much is required.

    When you have been forgiven MUCH… He becomes your heart’s song

    You live for Him with your whole heart…

    Like the man of God King David…

    But that’s another story.

    Anyhow…

    I’ve been oil cleansing for 5 or 6 years.

    It’s been costly. But so worth it.

    Been using this organic oil cleanse over a year to take off my makeup and I can wholeheartedly recommend it. I just finished my first bottle.

    It’s a ten. I call it my frankincense face wash. See it here.

    Stay close to Abba ♥️

    Esther 2:12-14

    Now when the turn of each young lady came to go in to King Ahasuerus, after the end of her twelve months under the regulations for the women– for the days of their beautification were completed as follows: six months with oil of myrrh and six months with spices and beauty treatments for the women.

    Until next time Warrior

  • Has Pain Left You Searching for Answers? Discover What God SAW That Could Change Everything

    Has Pain Left You Searching for Answers? Discover What God SAW That Could Change Everything

    Pain is something every human will encounter on earth.

    What we do with it will determine what we get from life.

    It will determine how God responds to us & the depths of our relationship with Him.

    Will you run to God when your heart aches or will you run to numb it?

    I’ve been dealing with a certain heartache.

    I’ve been searching for answers. Naturally as a woman of God, we go to the Father for these answers, or we ought to.

    The findings:

    He takes me to the book of Genesis.

    He speaks > then it’s manifests.

    He speaks WHAT HE WANTS TO HAPPEN.

    “Let there be light”

    “And there was light”

    He doesn’t just leave it at that.

    He goes to check His work. The fruit of His lips.

    “God SAW that the light was good.”

    In the Hebrew, the word “saw” also means to inspect, to learn about, to consider it.

    So He didn’t just speak something and close the book.

    He goes back to inspect it, to consider it.

    And so when we speak, we too are to inspect the fruit of our words.

    Are they yielding the fruit that we want to see?

    Are they filled with life?

    Are we building up our house?

    Modern culture teach people to speak death & have made a norm of it.

    To curse your blessing. To criticize your temple (your body). To put others and tear yourself down. This is straight from the pit of hell. This is not kingdom talk.

    So if we are not seeing the promises of God, we must ask… what are we speaking & what has the fruit of our words brought? What is the state of our heart?

    And if we don’t like it, we can always prayerfully change it.

    -Make declarations using the scriptures.

    -Feel the pain & run to God with it instead of running from God with it.

    -Seek His will & yield to it no matter how uncomfortable it might feel.

    -Inspect our words, speech & heart & thoughts constantly.

    -Take our thoughts captive to the obedience of Christ.

    These are just a few ways.

    You’re life doesn’t have to be a living hell.

  • The Most Important thing as a Mama

    The Most Important thing as a Mama

    ,

    I had just laid him down in his swaddle.

    Head over heels in love. He was perfect.

    I was getting ready for bed. I laid down and took that breath, you know that first good breath you take after you have poured out your heart that day. A sigh of relief. Ready for rest & relaxation.

    Almost immediately I heard the Lord say “his face is covered.”

    I was out of bed in a heart beat. I mean, which Mama bear is not, right?

    I go to him, and sure enough, somehow his swaddle was undone and the blanket was covering his face.

    Suffocation is a real thing. Of course, with the utmost speed possible I take it off his face.

    He was safe. God was watching over him.

    You see, you could be the best mom in the world and still miss it. So don’t strive to be the best, aim at being the most yielded (to God.)

    The serpent was the most cunning. Sneaky. Patient.

    But he can NEVER outwit the Holy Spirit.

    As much as we watch our children like the eagles, our strength & help comes from the Lord.

    The most important thing as mother, it is not your sons and daughters. It’s not your husband. Not your paycheck.

    It’s God. God alone is always to be #1.

    Period.

    So don’t compromise your relationship with Him for anything.

    I am not perfect. I am a very imperfect woman who loves God. A lot of times idols are not the golden calf’s that seem so obvious, they are often the things people don’t even pick up on, except God would show us.

    Like the fear of hurting someone. Or not stepping out in faith because of unbelief and doubt. Or maybe sometimes we have made comfort our king…refusing to be uncomfortable.

    It wasn’t the first time God saved his life and I am sure it will not be the last.

    Our sons and daughters will grown up and learn of God what they see at home. More is caught than taught. Which is why it is SO IMPORTANT, now more than ever to learn how to constantly walk and stay in the presence of the Lord.

    Not just when the YouTube worship song is on, not just at Bible study, not just when we have the electronics.

    But every “nanosecond,” as my kingly husband says. This will save their lives. It will save your life. And it will be greatly needed for the times ahead.

    So call out to God while you can. And seek His face while He may be found. For training them up in the way they should go will only happen once.

    Savor the moments. But always keep the Savior at the center.

    I am so convinced that apart from Him, I can do absolutely nothing.

    Stay in great confidence in the Lord & know that He will ALWAYS warn you, but it’s you job to guard your own heart & keep it soft enough so that you hear Him.

    Quick prayer: God I pray that every-time you warn me & speak, that I, my sons & daughters, my husband & bloodline (name whoever you feel led to) would always heed your warnings & obey Your voice, expose every plot against us & cancel it, may we respond accordingly as You will, that no weapon formed against us will ever prosper, and we are kept safe & healthy, always in Your presence, no matter that price or pain, in Jesus name.

    As always, stay yielded to God,

    Julianne

    2 Chronicles 30:8 (NKJV)
    “yield yourselves to the LORD; and enter His sanctuary, which He has sanctified forever, and serve the LORD your God, that the fierceness of His wrath may turn away from you.
