Language Fluency

© 2004 Debbie Turner Chavers
Amos 3:3

Are we fluent in the language of life? or death?

What language do we speak day to day?

What is our native tongue?

Are we fluent? 

There is a God given tongue for each one of us.

We are anointed to think and speak life and not agree with death.


The promise of John 10:10 shows us clearly what the author and finisher of our faith would have us be fluent in and it is the language of life.

John 10:10

The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.


Heavenly language agrees with God and as a born again child of God your native tongue has become His Living Word.


If we allow ourselves to be tutored under a false hope we will have a cruel accent and live a life that dishonors the good that God has done within us.

God would have us set apart in all areas. We are in the world but citizens of Gods kingdom. 

What language do you speak? 

As with any tongue you can practice by studying and speaking until you become well versed.

Tongues are our prayer language but consider our daily speaking to a lost and dying world as a kingdom kid.


Amos 3:3 states that two cannot walk together unless they be agreed.

So seriously consider facts.


If you eat the news, the negative and your own opinion daily, the fruit that is produced will be death. 


Eating the Word of God acts as fertilizer to mature the fruit of the Spirit that is developing within you. (Read Galatians 5)

As you focus on the pure and lovely our native tongue in the kingdom is developed in clarity and consistency. Living Word begins to break down walls that imprison peoples mind, heart, and soul. 


In nature we prune and fertilize what we want to see mature and bring forth fruit.

Therefore cut off your constant exposure to the toxins of the world. 


In our daily life we apply the principle of John 10:10.

This principle does not bow in preference to age or nationality, the result is the same for all. 

Life unto life. 

Death unto death.


Daily we can practice the language of life. 

This language is available to all. 

What language will you learn.? 

What language will you become proficient in through practice? 

There is life and death in the power of your tongue. 

Become fluent in speaking life.

Jesus Christ came to Earth to give you life and that more abundantly. 

Agree with Him. 

Speak life, think on those things which are pure,lovely and of good report.

His Word has gone out into all the world. 

His Word will not return void.

Amen.

Treasures: Big Box, Little Box


Most people live in a house. Varying sizes, different styles. Over my life time I have lived in a car,(homeless), a trailer, an apartment, a duplex, a rental and a sticks and bricks home.
In all these places I have collected my version or my family’s version of treasures. 

Most of us love our stuff and continue to collect that which gives us pleasure throughout our lives. 
Even King Solomon listed the lifetime collection he had gathered in Ecclesiastes 2.
Those things which he had built and acquired over the years. 
And yet nothing he acquired went with him in the end. Nothing.
Nor will we take any physical thing with us at the end of our lives.
The earthly thing or things we fill our time, life, and homes with will stay and go the way of all the Earth.

As I contemplated this information the Lord showed me a visual of what He was speaking to my heart, which I am now sharing with you from the pages of my journal.


Journal Entry of Debbie Turner Chavers 2022


God has given us good things to enjoy but it is necessary to keep our eyes on the Eternal. 
We shall not pass this way again.
Consider Ecclesiastes 2 where Solomon considers the futility of pleasure and possessions. 
Jesus told us in Luke 12 that it is foolish to lay up earthly treasures for ourselves yet not be rich toward God. You are loved and it is your Father’s good pleasure to provide all things for us. 
Focus on Him, He Will take care of us.

*The summation was that people spend their whole life filling up a big box, ie their home with perceived treasures. Yet, in the end they move to an empty little box, ie coffin or urn. 

Choose wisely,
 ~Debbie




Matthew 6:19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon the earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt and where thieves break through and steal.
Matthew 6:20 But lay up for yourselves treasure in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal.
Matthew 6:21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

Flame of Recognition in Light of Eternity


For the Joy Set Before Him
 © 2019 Debbie Turner Chavers
Water-Man Series
Hebrews 12:2


Today decide.  
Who will YOU serve?  
Yourself or the LORD?
We are to have singleness of heart toward our Redeemer.
All we have and all we are is due to God.
He sent His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ to pay in full for our redemption.
Do not fear the emptying of self. 
For God will fill you to over flowing with His Holy Spirit if you will receive Him.
There is a fear in those gathered in mankind of a usurpation. 
Rightfully so, because someone HAS taken our place.
Jesus Christ has taken our place and borne our transgressions away.

Men of flesh and bone fear failure and possess a strong need for recognition.
This desire for recognition can strip a person of giving back to God the enablement that He gave to us.
We cling to our gifts with soulful remorse, acknowledging only minutely the value received.
We strive to hang on to our gifting, instead of letting go.  
Our heart of pride recognizes the gift within, but quickly shuts the box and ties the bow as though we have not seen His glory.
What are we thinking? 
What are we doing?
We carefully guard our perceived value, intending to be paid well...for that which we have been freely given. The gifts we have received were Paid in Full by our Redeemer.

We are His children.  A witness for God in a lost, deceived and dying world.
No man knows the day or the hour of Christ's return. 
Be found faithful, be diligent.  
He gave all for you and I.  
Can we give less? 
Consider John 10:10 which says "The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly."

A house divided can not stand. 
We are the tabernacle of God.  
The Lord calls us to wholeness in Him. 
Work and give, while it is yet day.  

John 9:4 I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.

Matthew 21:28-45


Church, Bride of Christ Jesus, Be about your Father's business.
~Debbie


Matthew 10:8  Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.
Revelation 21:6  And he said unto me, It is done.  I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end.
I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.

Are You Thirsty?

Isaiah 45:13  I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will direct all his ways: he shall build my city, and he shall let go my captives, not for price nor reward, saith the LORD of hosts.

Hebrews 9:11-14  But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building;
Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.
For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh:
How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot  to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

Acts 15:16-17  After this I will return, and will build again the tabernacle of David, which is fallen down; and I will build again the ruins thereof, and I will set it up:
That the residue of men might seek after the Lord, and all the Gentiles, upon whom my name is called, saith the Lord, who doeth all these things.
