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.

UPRIGHTLY

There are great promises in My Word given to those who walk uprightly. You walk uprightly when you work righteousness, and speak the truth in your heart. I am your "Good Shepherd," Who leads you in paths of righteousness for My name's sake.

I lead you to live uprightly daily so that My name will be glorified not only in your own life, but also in the lives of those you love.  I have promised to be your sun and shield, to give you grace and glory.

I have promised that I will withhold no good thing from you.  I also will give you wisdom. Daily ask My Holy Spirit to help you walk the sure path of My righteousness, and you will daily be blessed.

PSLAM 15:2, 84:11, 23:3   '

ENRICHED

The word, "enriched," means to make richer or to give greater value and importance to.  Each day you live is a day that I want to enrich you. Yes, I love you so much that I want to keep adding to your knowledge of Me.

Eternal life begins the moment you are born by My Spirit.  From that day on, I want you to keep being enriched by the knowledge of how much I love you.  My servant Paul prayed for all believers to know the breadth, and length, and depth, and height of My love which passes your human knowledge.

When you know how much I love you, you will be enriched bountifully by Me in every thing in your life. As you daily give Me your thanksgiving and praise, you will become richer and richer in My strength, My joy, My peace, My grace, and My love..

EPHESIANS 3:17-19; 1 CORINTHIANS 1:5; 2 CORINTHIANS 9:11

HIDDEN

I know the hearts of men, and I can change the hearts of men.  I hardened the heart of Pharaoh many times. I have the power to turn an evil heart into a heart that glorifies Me.  Simply look at how I changed Saul's heart.

I want you to have hope that the wickedness you see now in your own government and in governments around the world can be turned around.  I can pour a spirit of repentance upon evil men.  

I can bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make  manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man have praise of God.

1 CORINTHIANS 4:5

HEARING

This is a season in which you need to be built up in faith.  The only way for faith to grow in your life is that you take time to hear My Word.

I know that you read My Word faithfully, but I want you to do more than read My Word.  I want you to grow in your ability to hear My Holy Spirit narrate My Word to you.  I sent My Holy Spirit to lead and guide you into all truth.

You are living in an age of great deception.  To guard against being deceived, ask My Holy Spirit daily to interpret My Word to you.  Read a passage and then pray for the Holy Spirit to give you understanding. I want you to hear My Word with your heart.  Only My Holy Spirit has that ability to transfer My Word from your head to your heart.

ROMANS 10:17; JOHN 16:13

NEWS

When I lived on Earth, we did not have quick reporting of the news.  The air was not filled with up to date reports of what is happening in the world.  You live in a day when the news is at your finger tips.  However, you must be discerning when you hear things.

My adversary is the prince and power of the air which means that he can use the airwaves to speak his lies.  He is the master deceiver.  I warned My disciples that they were to be careful not to be deceived.

I told them that there would be false Christs in the end days.  You are in those days, so be no deceived. I exhort you to check out whatever you hear with My Word and with My Holy Spirit.  Only My Word has the power to discern the thoughts and intents of the hearts of people.

EPHESIANS 2:2; HEBREWS 4:12; MATTHEW 24:11

OCCUPY

I left My disciples with all that they needed when I ascended into heaven.  I gave gifts to men.  I trusted My disciples to use those gifts to demonstrate My glory while they occupied Earth.

I trust you also to occupy Earth and use the gifts I have given also to glorify Me.  Pray daily to be empowered with the anointing of My Spirit to share My good news with others and to use My gifts as needed.

I promised that you would do even greater works than I did on Earth.  Believe that and go forth daily in My power.

EPHESIANS 4:8; JOHN 14:12

DISMAYED

Many are dismayed about the Russian invasion of Ukraine.  Some think this is the beginning of the end of the world or the beginning of World War III. However, those who receive their news from My good news, My Word, will not be dismayed. 

There have always been wars and nations coming against nations.  I want you to be comforted by the words that Isaiah wrote:

ISAIAH 41:10 - 13: "Fear not; for I am with you: be not dismayed; for I am your God: I will strengthen you, yes, I will help you; yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of My righteousness.  Behold, all those who were incensed against you shall be ashamed and confounded: they shall be as nothing; and they that strive with you shall perish.  You will see them, and you will not find them, even those who contended with you: those who war against you shall be as nothing. For I the Lord your God will hold your right hand, saying to you, Fear not; I will help you.

ISAIAH 41:10-13
