Blessings to Shamar Family,

Coming into shamar I wasn't sure what to expect. Already, it has been rewarding in so many ways. I listen and study each lesson with an open heart, sound mind, which has lead me to receive great knowledge and some nuggets. ️

We all have a past, Right?! Well, My past left betrayal, heartaches, and burdens so deep they consumed me. To the point of being completely honest, much too heavy for me to bear or carry. So, When I first started coming to the Lord in prayer, it was like where do I begin? 🥺 I wasn't proud of the things I had thought of, said, or done. As a matter of fact, I had a vault of stored up emotions and junk. When I would start to pray, I noticed Paranoia immediately took over my prayer. It was a grip of fear, I didn't want it (my prayer) to be wrong, or disappoint God. Truth is, I feared not being heard by God, I feared I wasn't worthy enough he heard my prayer; I had all this doubt. Instead of believing... I AM WORTHY of his Grace, Mercy, and Love. I'd shell up. God is pulling on my heart to go deeper, so you understand why...the reason is part of my past I prayed and felt a long void of unanswered prayers in my life. I prayed but every time I prayed God showed unresponsively. That is what I thought. For those of you who don't know and for those of you who do it is always nice to be reminded; WE ARE ALL WORTHY OF GODS DIVINE MERCY and GRACE especially, HIS LOVE FOR US!!️️️️

It wasn't until one lesson giving by Michelle Oliveri, which had a major impact on me. Michelle said; (note: I'm not quoting her words) prayer doesn't need to be a bunch of perfect words or longer. In fact, if you don't know what to pray just tell God to pray His perfect prayer for your life and his perfect will be done in your life. It's that simple. Simple prayers are just as good.🤯

I will say, I was reluctant at first. There is no way it can be that simple....like I said in the beginning I listen and study. So I tried it and my prayer was;

"Lord, here's my heart speak what is true. In Jesus’ name, I Pray your perfect prayer in my life and I pray your perfect will be done in my life as well. I lift it all up to you. Amen"

The simplest prayer has brought me healing, wisdom revelation, and most of all his love. Then even more so the beauty of being in harmony with God. The gift of tongues poured out of me, and I was flowing... I had to double-check to see if it was me.🧐 But I was... Hallelujah! The power of the Holy Spirit. My prayer in sync with God. Now that is Awesome!

You know I believe in God, but I wasn't fully trusting in him. Each time I pray my "Simple Prayer" he reveals and sheds more light. The biggest light is trust. Trusting in him wholly without a shadow of a doubt. For me kinda hard to do because of my past. Then God shed some light and revealed this... He reminded me of all the times he had stood by me, carried me, walked by me, protected me, hugged me, loved me through it all. Physically, I felt alone, but spiritually he was always with me. Of course, because he is in me. From what I said early on the burden too heavy to bear. Truth is, yes. God was there with me through it all. So, that means I didn't do it alone. Trust isn't my fear anymore. Hear that devil? NOT ON MY WATCH!! Now, There's no question as to his promises rendering true. I am living proof of his promises. Each and every day!️

The power of prayer renders true! The more knowledge I attain from Andrew Castillo, Michelle Oliver's, The Shamar team, and family, strengthen my boots to the ground to war off the enemy attacks, spirits and more importantly to Trust in the Lord with every one of my prayers. Trusting and leaning solely on him. God is a Good God!

Prayer:

I just want to thank you, Lord, for the work you've already done in my life and what is to come forth in my future. I pray in Jesus’ name, for every individual who reads this to come upon their hearts and speak what is true to them, I pray your perfect prayer for their lives and that your perfect will be done in their lives as well. I pray you agape love pour into them. Let your will be done as it is lifted to you lord. We give all praise and glory. Amen.

Love you all Shamar Family,
