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.

IMPOSSIBLE

You are facing situations in your nation that seem impossible to change.  However, nothing is impossible with for Me.

When I told those listening that it would be easier to have a camel go through the eye of a needle than it would be to have a rich man enter the kingdom of God.  My disciples were shocked and asked Me this question in response, "Who then can be saved?"

I responded with this answer, "With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible  (Matthew 19:26)." Persevere in prayer for your nation because all things are possible as you co-labor with Me through your prayers.

MATTHEW 19:24-26

ALLOW

My disciples often did not understand My parables, so I had to explain them after I shared them with others.  The day came, however, after Pentecost when they received the baptism in the Holy Spirit that they finally were empowered to teach others.

Those 120 gathered in the Upper Room understood that they had a commission, and that My Spirit had empowered them to preach the gospel of My Kingdom to all the nations.

They knew that they were allowed by God to no longer please men with their words.  They now were empowered to please God by giving the words of life to mankind. I trusted them with the most precious gift they could give to mankind - My gospel.

1 THESSALONIANS 2:4

UNDERSTANDING

You can have all knowledge, but if you lack understanding, you will never be able to apply what you know in order to live your life with wisdom.

Understanding is the bridge between knowledge and wisdom. If that bridge is not crossed, even the wisdom in My Word will not cause you to live wisely.

When I taught, I often said, "He who has ears, let him hear."  Most of the people were not hearing impaired, but many of them did lack understanding.   Ask Me daily for the Holy Spirit to help you understand My Word and apply to your daily life.

MATTHEW 11:15

CIRCUMSPECTLY

Paul exhorted the church in Ephesus to "walk circumspectly redeeming the time because the days are evil. To walk circumspectly, you need to be aware of the times you live and you need to pay special attention to all of your circumstances that relate to your actions, judgment, and conduct.

These days are the end days and they certainly are evil.  You live in a time when you should be careful not to waste time.  My adversary has a multitude of "time wasters" that can easily distract you from your high calling.

Everyone has the same high calling and that is to love Me with all of of their hearts, souls and minds and love others as I have loved them.  This truly is a high calling, and you can only fulfill that calling as you depend upon Me and My Spirit daily to help you.

EPHESIANS 5:15

ELECT

Tomorrow you will have the opportunity to elect people for your Congress.  Cherish your freedom to vote because many nations do not have the same opportunity to vote for their leaders.

Some of you may have already voted, and some will vote tomorrow.  My servant Paul exhorted Timothy to pray for all those in authority so that they may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. 

I am hearing your cries for the foundations of righteousness to be restored in your land.  My body in your nation neglected praying for their leaders, and they are reaping the consequences of that lack of prayer.  However, many in My body are crying out now, and I am a just a merciful God Who is answering their prayers.

1 TIMOTHY 2:1-3

SEND

Darkness right now has enveloped your nation and many nations around the world. Paul wrote Timothy that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils. These people will speak lies in hypocrisy because their consciences have been seared with a hot iron.

Paul also warned Timothy  that people would be traitors, heady, high minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God. They would be trucebreakers, false accusers and despisers of those who are good.

What can you do to penetrate the darkness you are now experiencing? You can come against Satan, the prince and power of the air, by sending My Word out into the atmosphere where he dwells. I was able to send My Word to heal people. You can also send My Word to deliver people, cities, and nations through declaring My Word out loud as you intercede. 

1 TIMOTHY 4:1-2; 2 TIMOTHY 3:3-4

TEACH

I taught in the synagogues in the villages and cities and I preached the gospel of the kingdom. I also healed those who were sick and oppressed of the devil.

Those in the synagogues were familiar with the law and the prophets, but they needed to know that there was no way that they could keep the law.  Their teaching was in vain because they depended upon their own works to make them righteous before My Father.

I was able to teach them the two most important commandments which are to love the LORD God with all their hearts, soul, and mind and to love one another. When you allow My Holy Spirit to give you daily the power to keep these two commandments, you will live in My righteousness, peace and joy.

MATTHEW 9:35
