Zechariah 9:11-12 “As for you also, Because of the blood of your covenant, I will set your prisoners free from the waterless pit. Return to the stronghold, You prisoners of hope. Even today I declare That I will restore double to you.
My passion is cultivating a deep relationship with God and helping others to do the same. I LOVE sharing with others insights that God has taught me and hearing what God has taught them... thus my blog, Stirring the Deep. My focus is on a relationship, not a religion. Life is in the relationship.
I believe in a balance and unity of body, mind and spirit. I feel it's important to nurture all three for they all affect each other. I try to live in the present, where the Holy Spirit is. And I try to do all with the motive of love. I've come to believe life is a journey and not a destination. It isn't about perfection, is it about growth.
Rachel, thank you for the richness that you bring to these subjects of the heart, and spirit.
You can really tell, and sense the richness where your soul is built up by these truths, and when you are
sharing. It comes through and saturates the subject and helps bring my spirit, or mind back to
the true spiritual nature and power of the Word of God, and the love of God.
From times of listening to you it also helps, me, verbalize some of the nuances of the Word that I might have previously said, or spoken in a nonchalant way, possibly even overlooked.
By that interaction I am now able to have an even greater awareness of where, spirit and the natural world
are meeting together, and either opposing one another, or flowing together, and how I can, lean it towards
righteousness by tilting the sail, or either- lean into the wind.
Not my own concept of righteousness, but the overall rightness needed for the moment.
Of course that has to be based on God’s word, but sometimes the lines can be blurred in your favor,
or in the favor of 1st person, when you become distracted into thinking that righteouness,
is innate to you, or initiated by you, when actually, we are just flowing with it.
You are a fine tuned clock. I don’t know if you ever used a slide rule in school, but that’s what it reminds
me of. In listening to you, it brings you into a very fine tuned sense of gradation in attitude and thought.
At least, that’s how it affects me. For an English Shoshoni born is Memphis, it’s very spiritual to me.
Hi, thanks for your comments … your writing is beautiful. When we each are taught by the Spirit of Truth, then come together and share the words resonate in our souls adding and expanding to what we’ve heard. This is true fellowship of the body .. you feel the oneness of spirit; an incredible gift of life in a world of death that separates us from one another.
Hi Rachel reading freeing the prison of your mind, it explains so much.
I have been on a quest for the real truth and cried out to Father for it I have had a problem with the word Hell and torment in the bible and have searched and studied . It just dlidnt fit with the loving Father I worship. What a revelation when I came to the real truth and not a frightening doctrine that has kept me in fear and anxiety for years. it really did become good news. In my spirit the words wake up almost shouted at me and since then things have been happening. All the junk and bad stuff has been coming to the surface at first I thought I was going backwards, but its releasing me and anxiety which Ive suffered for years is dissapearing. Im also getting flickers of peacefulness, glimpses of hope and a burning desire to know Jesus deeper. He gave me “Deep touches Deep” psalm42:7 Your videos and words are such a blessing Rachel. Thankyou
Hi Summer – I am so thankful that you are starting to “see” the Father as He is .. and thus why you are starting to experience the changes in your life. May you be greatly blessed on your journey of drawing near to our true Father in spirit and truth.
