Coffee Break

Coffee in solitude, yet never truly alone. Moments of reflection, where God’s gifts are shown. In a busy room of gentle smiles and soft, whispered air,eyes meet mine with kindness, in a quiet, sacred prayer. They see the joy of the Lord in every gleam, a radiant reflection of a divine, that is God in me. When the clatter of the world may try to steal my peace,In silent and communion, my soul finds its peace. For in every sip, and in every silent glance, God, the Holy Spirit, and Jesus lead my heart to rest and in Hid gentle arms I find my peace. Alone in body but never in spirit, I embrace the moment with His precence and glory. I savor the quiet moments, touched by heavenly grace. I give my time to Jesus and my coffee in solitude is a gift I treasure. Ruth Guzman ( Guadalupe) 3/26/25

Take Off Your Sandals

“Do not come any closer,” God said. “Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground.” Exodus 3:5 In the early hours of the morning, I had a dream in which I had a phone call from my pastor. He was telling me something. I woke up and went to look for two scriptures Joshua 5:15 and Exodus 3. The Lord spoke to me heart to make a list of the “thing” that I had to take off in order to come to the mountain of The Lord and see what was about to take place. As I prayed I asked The Lord to show me what I needed to take off. Those areas in me that no one sees. Traces of past hurts, insecurities and fear. I had to take off Frustrations, Comparison (had the tendency to look down at myself) Miss trust (when I look and in the natural it seems impossible). Insecurity (looking at what I lack) Fears (finances, health issues) Greed (commission sales, why them and not me?) Jealousy (they don’t need the sale I do). They are residue of past behavior. Thought that had come in my mind, and feelings and emotions that I had to deal with. Take them off from me. I know there is more but I was running out to be at church on time to help with the set up. I couldn’t wait to come and see, and pray with the team!!! I could feel the excitement and expectancy inside of me. We had work so hard, and sacrifice so much. We had plowed the soil together. Tears and prayers, prayers and tears. It doesn’t take long once we allowed God to show us our heart and our motives. As I am talking to some ladies, they asked some questions and I heard my self talking. I recognize the undertone, the way it came out, it was there. Sarcasm. Another one that had to go!!! How can expect to lead the team in to the fires of the Lord and yet I carry residue of old behavior and patters within me? I acknowledge the wrong in me. I shared with the team. I ask for forgiveness and for the Lord to help me remove all traces. As we did we got to see the glory of the Lord fall out in all of us. This is holy ground. The city on the hill. The light shining bright for all to see. In this place, many people will change, transform, heal, and make whole. But it starts with me. As we moved to get the table ready for the giveaway that morning I got to see the scripture; Joshua 5:15 “Take off your sandals for the place, where you are standing is holy”. I laughed and I cried (I always do) all at the same time, and I thanked God for confirming my dream. As we get ready to receive the people who will be attending our service, we laugh and wonder as how God was bringing some many confirmations through many different people; “if you build it they will come” someone said. To hear someone else said “is the 1st time I'll be throwing dirt at people in a good way” As I walked around, welcoming people,
Thanking them for coming. I found myself crying again. Out of gratitude, for His faithfulness towards us, our pastor's heart, dedication and sacrifice for us. They didn't have to come to the Northeast but they did, and for that, we will be always grateful. Thank you, Lord. 🔥🙏🔨⚔️🥷 Ivette Diaz-Yee 8/25/25

Abundance

Abundance Biblical meaning; signifies a deep sense of fullness, gratitude, and richness in all aspects of life, going beyond material possessions and focusing on inner peace, love, joy, and appreciation for the blessings in one's life, regardless of external circumstances. God has been faithful. His faithfulness had brought us here. We stand in awe to see and experience His hand in our lives. As we enter this New Year, our dependency comes from The Lord. He alone is worthy of all our praise. Thank you, Lord, for choosing us. For trusting us. Help us to stay true to the call and the journey. Let us not be distracted by what goes around us. Let us hold on tight to you. We are not going back we are moving forward. Last year was a year of exposure, raw honesty, stretching to the max, a year of thriving, and perseverance which brought us here. 2025 will be the year of abundance in life (John 10:10), in good works (2 Cor 9:8)greater wisdom, deeper understanding, and deeper knowledge are coming our way. It may not be reflected in the natural, now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. (Heb 11:1) We are learning to find solace in God (comfort or calm that comes from within, from trusting in him and finding refuge in the scriptures). Let this new year become a year of experiencing the abundance of life that God has for every one of us. Ivette Diaz-Yee 12/11/24

Tag Along

Lord, guide us as we journey into a new season. Help us to discern those You’ve placed in our lives and give us clarity to see with open eyes, hear with open hearts, and walk with steady steps. Sometimes, I see more than I’m prepared for.I see the motives behind the action, fears, insecurities, I recognize how the flesh can take over, even in my own walk. But it’s time to move forward in faith, leaving behind the old. We can’t live on yesterday’s manna or pour new wine into old wineskins. You’re calling us higher, for greater things. preparing us to go into higher grownd. Hinds feerts. Lord, let me not be distracted by the busyness of life, but instead focus on the lessons You want me to learn. Help me to look inward, examine my own heart, and check my motives. Am I pursuing my own interests? Reveal the truth, Lord. I don’t want to go anywhere You haven’t prepared me for, or go where Your anointing will not sustain me. Keep me faithful, available, and teachable, knowing that as Your daughter, I have an inheritance to claim. Teach me to serve with purity of heart, seeking Your interests and not my own. I serve You, not man. Thank You for speaking to my soul and for teaching me the language of the heart. Open my eyes to be able to see better and become aware of what surrounds me. Help me to applied what I share, let it not just be words that will be forgotten tomorrow. Not a lip service, but words from a heart surrended to you. —Ivette Diaz-Yee (11/25/23)

Healing Word.

As we read this scripture, we had a powerful revelation. We read “They brought into him ( Jesus) many that were possessed with devil. He cast them out of the spirit with His word and healed ALL that were sick. There were no names for sickness in Jesus' times, he dealt with the spirit behind the sickness face to face. Human nature tends to name that they can not comprehend, or they don't understand. Went something is named it becomes reality, it has been accepted and it has the legal right to be. The enemy hides in plain sight, he maskarate as real until it gets assessed to us. Behind every sickness, there is something behind it, working. The enemy doesn't play fair. He uses our bodies and our humanity. Our emotions, feelings, traumas, accidents, lives situations to gain assets. A few weeks ago, praying and interceding for a family member. I had an experience, as I was sleeping I was awakened by this fear that held me down, took away my breath, and showed me a grim future. I could not speak, fear paralyzed me; my mind knew what needed to be done, I prayed and cried out to the Lord Jesus Christ to help me, I applied the blood of Jesus over me, and I rebuked the enemy in Jesus' name. The thing lifted. I asked the Lord what was that. He said, “Fear”. This is what happens to many people, and because they don't know how to counterattack, our bodies release, stress, anxiety, worries, sleepless nights, ulcers, and many more medical issues that affect our bodies. As we learn to depend on The Lord Jesus Christ, to use His word as a weapon. To stand in what we believe and take him at His word. We give the enemy no room. So today as we go, as we face the situation at hand, know that you are not alone. Here we stand holding you in prayer. Don't lose heart. Choose to stand firm and believe the word that could bring peace to your heart and healing to your body. Ivette Diaz-Yee 1/26/25

What Do I Have?

God, What Do I Have? God asks me softly, "What do you possess?" I sigh and whisper, "I have nothing, I confess." But God, with eyes that see beyond the veil, Says, "I see something—your prayer will prevail." "I need your faith, your commitment too, You are something; not nothing, it’s true." "But Lord," I murmur, "I feel so small." God replies, "I’ll use what you call ‘nothing’ at all." "I’ll give you the little that I have inside," God says, "In that little, miracles abide. No excuses, just follow where I lead, With obedience, I’ll supply every need." "Believe in Me, and what I can do, I’ll make something beautiful, out of nothing through you." So I bow my head, and humbly I say, "God, I give you all, please lead my way." RMG 8/15/24

Buying v/s Believing

Buying v/s Believing As I work the garden, working in this project that it has taken me 3 summer to hopefully be completed this year. In here I sit with the Lord. (Not literally because I am working it) as I pulled, prune, cut and clean around it. I hear the gentle whisper in my heart. The garden has become, where I present the question in my heart that are hard for me to voice it out. Today it’s not different. I see what is taking place around me and I ask God what’s going on? I am taken back to the beginning of the year as how we have committed ourself to Him. How we had count the cost by our sacrifices, how we had to let go of our agendas and surrender all to Him. Watching those that come to our sphere. Learning how to encourage ourselves in the Lord. How we had been equipped to lead others to their purpose, their true freedom, making heaven more crowded one soul at a time. We are a miracle. We walking in miracles and how it has happen Exponentially. He spoke it twice in to my heart. Not out of repetition but out of emphasis. I said all that in order to bring forth the word spoken to my heart on June 6th. Buying vs Believing We are surrounded by two kinds of people. The ones that bought in to the vision, because they heard what is taking place and they came in (John 10:12) and those that Believe the vision, for they saw the vision. Standing together working for the vision. With two different purposes. The one who “bought in to” made an investment and will
want to get paid back (the hire hand ),the one who Believe the vision, and seeins the vision. (Son) We ought to stay vigilant. I believe this to be a warning for us all. I take it very seriously, for I will be held accountable for each word I speak, write, post, email or text. “What I whisper in your ear, shout from the housetops for all to hear” Matthew 10:27niv Ivette Diaz-Yee 6/13/2024 Sisterslovedbygod.net
