GOD HAS DONE SO MANY WONDERFUL THINGS!!! Last week, my friend invited my hubby and I to the last night of their 7 night revival. She had been telling me how good it was and really wanted us to come. I had mentioned it to my hubby but before I even got the rest of it out of my mouth, I felt his resistance. I told my friend that I would love to come but I didn't think my hubby would. She immediately begin to pray that the Holy Spirit would draw him. Indeed it did! Praise God I was shocked myself! He admitted to me days later that he did all he could not to go but nothing worked! I was so pressed in my spirit to get there. All day long that day I felt an 'excitement' an "expectation". I knew that something LIFE CHANGING was about to take place and as soon as we stepped through the door I felt the sweet, sweet presence of God. As soon as the man of God stepped into teh pulpit, God begin to use him to confirm and to teach deliverance to both my family situation. it was AWESOME. BLESS GOD!!! As the night ended and I stepped out of that place, even until now, almost a week later, I KNOW that I have changed. My life has changed, my destiny is now and EVERYTHING has shifted. WE are NOW walking in God's favor, callings and blessings! Not even two days later, my husband got a JOB after being laid off OVER A YEAR! TO GOD BE THE GLORY!! I WORSHIP AND PRAISE HIM AND THE BEST IS YET TO COME!!! AMEN AND AMEN!!!!

The Lord taught me 2 things today. 1 about leadership and 2 about prayer. Recently, I took the lead with one other person to organize a trip. When the response did not come like I thought it would, I got anxious and angry. I called my sister in law to 'complain' and to make a long story short, she told me that some of my frustrations just come with leadership! Even though she told me that early this morning, it stuck with me and God began to minister to me. Leadership and being a leader means you have to deal with people, many different kinds of people with different attitudes and opinions. Being a leader of a small group or a large group, it doesn't matter, it takes risks, involves frustrations and the ability to be able to work with others. Now, that ties into my the 2nd lesson that was taught to me. All of us read and sing about the Prayer of Jabez. We pray it with all the faith in the world. I have prayed it with all the faith in the world, but the Lord brought to my attention the part about "Enlarging My Territories". Now, honestly, do we think God is just going to enlarge our territories without any responsiblity on our part? The Heavenly Father that I know does not waste and opportunity to TEACH AND GROW US. In order for Him to enlarge our territory, we must be willing to be ENLARGED! That means He is going to lead us into certain situations where we HAVE to step up and take on greater responsibility. I am, in a sense already a leader. I'm a leader in my home and on my job but, God is using this situation to make me a leader on a bigger scale. He IS enlarging my territory!!! Let's not miss God by thinking He is going to do it a certain way: our thoughts are not His. I repented today and accepted the responsibility of this specific duty and I look at it differently now. Praise God!

I forgot to add something that came to me today. My motto and the name of my team with Ardyss International has been "Take the Limits off." Well, as I was sitting here a little earlier the "Limitless Lady" popped into my spirit. WOW! Meet the LIMITLESS LADY. Not only with Ardyss International but in EVERY AREA OF MY LIFE. I'm speaking into existence!

THE LIMITLESS LADY
MILLIONAIRE HOPE HARGROVE

NICE TO MEET YOU!!!
I had SUCH an AWESOME day today! It was beautiful, peaceful and even though I didn't make it to church today my heart was in a thankful posture ALL day long. I praise the Lord for a day filled with His prescence, His goodness and His Mercy!! Even now I feel His sweet prescence and my eyes are filling with tears!!! For the last COUNTLESS weeks I have felt like a chicken with its head cut off. I've been so BUSY! At the end of each day I would fall into bed more mentally exhausted than physically exhausted. Yes, my body was tired but more so, my mind. BUT, PRAISE GOD! He gave me a day of rest and peace today that I am so thankful for that all I can do is worship HIM! Have you ever been there? Do you know what I mean? My children were here and they had their cousin stay over so you would've thought it would've been chaotic, but no. I moved through my home today with such a peace of mind and spirit that I even cooked a big dinner and actually sat down without feeling 'guilty'. I PRAISE GOD!!!! I thank Him for rejuvenating my spirit and restoring my stength. I love HIM!!

I have not written in a while. I have been extremely busy and extremely tired. I'm learning that sometimes its not that something is physically wrong that makes you feel drained...it can be PEOPLE. The best thing to do is to nicely disengage yourself from leeches and keep it moving!!!

All I can say is AWESOME. GOD is awesome! He is moving and I LOVE IT. I decided a while back that the ONLY path I wanted to follow was the one HE destined me to follow before I was even created in my Mother's womb. I love Him. I praise Him and I magnify Him. He is my all in all and all I need. I can't do anything without Him. A life wasted is one that never fulfills its destiny and my life will NOT be wasted!! I am 37 years old and realize that I have not even begun to live. I live when Christ's will is being done through me. Guess what? I am beginning to LIVE. This IS my NOW moment! Look out World! Here I come! I WILL be one who at the end of my days will be able to say that I have run the race that God has set before me and I'll know my work is done and that God will have a crown laid up in Glory for me!! I encourage you to determine in this life to do the same!! PRAISE HIM! PRAISE HIM! PRAISE HIM!! IN JESUS NAME! AMEN!!
