SOMMER FAMILY BLESSING

Welcome to the blog for Linda Sommer.

My Blog will cover three subjects:

WORD FROM THE LORD, FAMILY, and MINISTRY.

WORD FROM THE LORD
Every day I spend time with the Lord in the morning and He speaks to my heart words that are encouraging, exhorting and sometimes rebuking.

At first, I felt not to share these words with others, but then I realized I am just one of His followers. There are many people who need a word daily from the Lord, but they do not have the time to seek Him. This is why I decided to share the words I received from time to time. The messages are in first person as the the Lord relayed them to my spirtual ears.

FAMILY
We have three sons and nine grandchildren. There is something new happening all the time in the Sommer family. I will post some of these events of interest.

MINISTRY
Tom and I have traveled the world. To find out more about our ministry you may consult our webpage -

I will keep you updated on future speaking enagements and ministry developments.

POSITIVE

Most of us want to have positive things said about us, and we want positive answers to our prayers. However, if we are awaiting a doctor's report on a biopsy, our hope is that the results will prove negative instead of positive.

The promises in My Word are never negative.  They are all "yes" and "amen" through Me.  The key is that all the promises in God's Word are meant to give positive results when the conditions for these promises are met.

There are some promises in My Word that are not conditional.  The promise that whatever you shall ask My Father in My name, He will give it to you is conditional.  The conditions required of you are that you daily abide in Me, abide in My Word, and abide in My love by keeping My commandments.  I want you to position yourself daily to receive all of My promises by fulfilling these conditions.

2 CORINTHIANS 1:20; JOHN 16:23

DESIGN

I have designed you to have fellowship with Me daily.  When you miss your times with Me, you miss what I have to share with you.  You miss the time to share your praises and love with Me.  Those days that you miss your fellowship times with Me cause you to be open to influences of this world.

I designed Adam and Eve to walk with Me in the garden, to hear My voice, and to be in constant communion with Me.  When sin entered the world that fellowship was broken.  The good news is that I came to redeem all that was lost when sin entered the world.

I have designated you to enjoy fellowshipping with Me daily.  The design of your day includes coming to Me with every care.  Remember, I can perfect all that is a concern to you. I designed you to have a carefree day, so today release every care to Me, and you will experience all the joy and peace that I have designed for you this day.

PSALM 138:8

DEGRADE

My adversary's plan has always been to degrade My heavenly Father.  He seeks to corrupt in quality the moral character of My Father.  He was successful in this strategy when he convinced  Adam and Eve to believe that My Father was withholding something good from them.

Satan continues to try to degrade and dishonor Me, My Father, My Holy Spirit and My beloved through false reports and accusations.  He is the accuser of the brethren. When this tactic is used against you or those you love, speak the truth to counter the lie.

The truth that I want you to speak is that your righteousness is of Me, and no weapon My enemy sends your way will prosper.  Condemn his words of accusation, and remember that I am your advocate.  I will then be able to bring to light the truth.

EAGER

I want you to be eager to do My will.  The word, "eager," can have a positive or negative connotation. The negative connotation used as a verb means "to be impatient or anxious."  I never want you to be anxious or impatient to do My will when you daily yield yourself to My Holy Spirit..

I want you to desire keenly and to be enthusiastic to do My will day by day.  Expect to be led by My Holy Spirit moment by moment during the day. Expect My Spirit to put you in the right place at the right time to have divine appointments.

Expect that My Holy Spirit will fill your heart so mightily with My love that My light of love within you will flow naturally and powerfully through you to others.  They will see My good works through you and glorify My Father in heaven.

MATTHEW 6:22

REVIEW

One of the key ways to pass a test is to keep reviewing the notes that you took in class.  It would even be helpful to memorize some of the key points and also to speak those key points out loud.

I want you to use those same tools that help you pass tests in school when you are going through a major test of your faith.  There are many reasons for tests in your life.  One of the main reasons is that you live in a fallen world that causes much tribulation.  I promised that in the world you would have tribulation, but be of good cheer because I have overcome the world.

When your faith is tested, review what has been written in My Word about whatever test you are experiencing.  For example, if you are having a financial test, read. memorize, and mutter those promises out loud, and you will pass that test of faith. One third of My Word concerns money.

JOHN 16:33

PROCEED

After medical procedures, you usually do not know how to proceed with any treatment.  The first thing that I want you to do is to seek Me for wisdom and revelation knowledge.  I am all wisdom.  I know every inch of your body, and I know exactly how you should proceed.

Rest assured that as you daily commit your body to Me as a living sacrifice that I take charge over your body.  I always want you to be in health and prosper even as your soul prospers..

Trust Me, and try not to lean on your own understanding when a diagnosis is given that could cause you to be anxious.  Remember the instructions My servant Paul gave: "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests known be made known to Me.  When you faithfully do this, My peace will mount guard over your heart and mind .

3 JOHN 1; PROVERBS 3:5; PHILLIPIANS 4:6-7

PRESENT

The word, "present," can mean many things.  When this word is used as a verb, it usually means to present a problem or a teaching or even an interview.   It can mean that someone is present with you.  It can also mean a gift.

The word, "present," is a good word to describe My activity in your life on Earth.  I am always present with you.  You are a present (gift) to Me.  Everyday I present My Word to you for encouragement, exhortation, and edification.

Today when you think about this word, I want you to focus on Me and how much I love you.  My Father gave Me as a present to you so that you in turn can present the gospel of My kingdom to many.  The day will come soon when I will present you faultless before My Father in heaven.

2 PETER 1:12; JUDE 24
