Our lives together are bonded by God’s Holy Spirit and it is He that keeps us in His Word daily. Our foundation is His Word and our faith is based on Jesus as Lord! It is our belief that we are all called to be Ambassadors of the Kingdom of Heaven.
Our inheritance as Kingdom citizens is written down in the Word of God, but in our busy world many never take time and study the promises given by Daddy God and King Jesus. Our goals include sharing as much of these Kingdom Promises as possible.
This first book is centered on one of the most promise filled books of the Bible that exists. The Psalms are the most ancient, complete, and expressive collection of human praise known today. They are indeed a manual of devotion, a treasure chest full of praise and gems of adoration. They should always be a part of our lives because they are God centered and they ascribe all glory to the only true and living God. They also lead us in praise and worship to our God for what He is in Himself. They help us to grow in an attitude of gratitude to the One who is Worthy!!
Second book coming soon!!
We all have an internal desire to know and have a relationship with our Father. I’m not speaking of our earthly father just now, but the One Who created us and knit us together in our mother’s womb. This special, intimate relationship is available to every human being and is also desired by Daddy God Himself. From the foundation of the earth He planned for His family and designed a Way for each of us to enter His presence. To live our lives in His shelter and care.
The Way I speak of is His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ! Jesus tells us in John 14:6, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.” If you are unsure of your place in the family of God, if you have an internal desire that has not been satisfied by the things of this world, then I have Good News for you! God has already given each of us a measure of faith to believe in Him. Yes faith is a number one requirement for entering this life relationship with Daddy God. Faith is required to believe that God sent His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life. John 3:16. Now God speaks to His chosen (that’s us) through the Apostle Paul in Romans 10:9, 10 and says, “that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness (right standing with God), and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation”. Salvation is not a one time experience, but a life time journey of living in the presence of Abba Father. It is a lifestyle of relying on God for all your needs. The word of faith which I’m telling you about is near you, in your heart and in your mouth. A very simple and honest prayer and confession gets you into a love relationship with Daddy God that never ends!
If you do not know JESUS as your SAVIOR and LORD, but would like to know Him, pray with me. Heavenly Father, I come to You in the Name of Jesus. Your Word says, “Whoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved” and “If thou shall confess with my mouth the Lord Jesus, and shall believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, thou shall be saved” (Acts 2:21; Romans 10:9). You said my salvation would be the result of Your Holy Spirit giving me new birth by coming to live in me (John 3:5-6, 15-16; Romans 8:9-11) and that if I would ask, You would fill me with Your Spirit and give me the ability to speak with other tongues (Luke 11:13; Acts 2:4).
I take you at Your Word. I confess that Jesus is Lord. And I believe in my heart that You raised Him from the dead. Thank You for coming into my heart, for giving me Your Holy Spirit as You have promised, and for being Lord over my life. Amen.
Romans 8:15-16 - Galatians 4:6
PSALM 91
OUR SECURITY
Our security comes from our trust in God. When we put our trust in Him and confess or proclaim this trust to Him (v.2), He covers us and we abide in His shadow (v.1). Nothing brings peace like knowing that God is watching over you. Verse 11 says that He gives His angels charge concerning you to guard you in all your ways! I like personalizing this whole Psalm. Using only verses 11 & 12, it would sound like this; “For He will give His angels charge concerning me, to guard me in all my ways. They will bear me up in their hands that I do not strike my foot against a stone.” I tie this exercise together with Psalm 103:20 which says, “Bless the Lord, you His angels, mighty in strength, who perform His word, obeying the voice of His word!”
Many mistakenly believe they need to pray to angels to obtain help in time of need. We are always and only to pray to our Heavenly Father in the name of Jesus. When we pray or confess to Him, His own word, He activates whatever is necessary to meet our need of the moment.
Trust Him and His Word today for all your needs!!

Dale has been a man of "The Word" so it comes as no surprise that he has come up with a crossword puzzle to exercise you in the Word. Jesus said: "Man shall not live by bread alone but every word that proceeds from the mouth of God." That great man of faith George Mueller said that he had read the Bible 100 times. Is it any wonder he was able to support 10,000 orphans by faith alone never once asking for money or help from man. This will get the Word inside of you and develop your faith.
Pastor Tony Whittal, Word For All Nations Intl.
Wow! Dale Willard has come up with a wonderful way to get us into the word of God. I truly believe you will be blessed as you study and meditate in the passage of scripture that pertains to each crossword puzzle. After all God told Joshua if he would meditate in His word day and night and be careful to do what it says he would be prosperous and successful. This is another way for us to do just that.
