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.

PENETRATE

One of the definitions of the word, "Penetrate," is to enter by piercing.  You have been given the power through prayer in My name to pierce the darkness in the second heaven where Satan dwells.

I have given you the keys to the kingdom to bind and to loose. I want you to use those keys to bind the dark spirits that Satan sends and to loose the power of My Holy Spirit to bring light.

Your prayers are like light beams that pierce the dark spiritual realm of Satan.  When I said let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify My Father in heaven, I was revealing the power you had because My light dwells within you.  Use the power of prayer daily to penetrate the dark realm of Satan.

MATTHEW 16:18-19; 5:14

VALLEY

You face many valleys in your life.  I know you always think of a valley as a low dark place that is shadowed by mountains. Death is a valley that everyone will face.  David, My beloved psalmist wrote: "Yeah though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for You are with me; your rod and your staff they comfort me."

The valley of death for everyone who believes in Me will lead them immediately into My presence where light dwells continuously for all eternity. Valleys often have the richest soil because the rain from the mountains flows down to water the vegetation in the valley..  

I want you to see the valleys of trials in your life as times when the fruit of My Spirit can grow and flourish. As you trust in Me through every trial, My Holy Spirit can conform you to be more like Me. Remember that in every valley you go through, I will open a door of hope,

INDIVIDUAL

My Word says that the members of your body are written in a book in heaven.  There also is a book of remembrance that records every time you think or speak about Me.

There are other books in heaven, but I shared these truths with you so that you will understand how important your life is to Me.  I created you in your mother's womb and then I breathed My breath into you when you were born.

You are an individual who has meaning, purpose, and destiny.  There are many individuals who do not believe that I have anything to do with their lives.  They do not realize that I consider every individual as a special treasure.  Be bold and share with others how important they are to Me.

PSALM 139:16; MALACHI 3:16

ESTEEM

Paul wrote, "Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than themselves (Philippians 2:3)" Paul was summarizing the second great commandment.  

When a lawyer came to Me and asked Me which was the great commandment I said, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.  This is the first and great commandment.  And the second is like it, You shall love your neighbor as yourself (Matthew 22:37-39).

It is impossible for you to love your neighbor or anyone else as you love yourself without the help of My Holy Spirit.  However, you can esteem others higher than yourself.  Ask My Holy Spirit to help you see others as I see them. Humble yourself today. Refuse to get into strife, and esteem others better than yourself.

PHILIPPIANS 2:3; MATTHEW 22:37-39

VISION

The word, "vision," is laced throughout the old covenant and the new covenant.  That is why I gave you this word.  It is a very important word because Solomon wrote, "Where there is no vision, the people perish; but the one who keeps the law, happy is he." 

I came to fulfill the law, not to destroy it.  This should make you very happy because I can fulfill My vision for you as you yield yourself  to My Holy Spirit. I am the One Who works through you both to give you the will to do My will and the power to accomplish My will in your life.

My vision for you is simple.  I believe that you will allow Me  to complete that good work I began in you. I will fulfill every work I designed for you to do even before the foundation of the Earth. This truth should make you more than happy. This should make you gloriously blessed.  Thank Me today for My vision for you.

AUTHORIZE

The word, "authorize," means to give official approval or permission.  You are not a citizen of this Earth.  The governing body over you is the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit because you are a citizen of the kingdom of God on Earth.  

Before I left the Earth, I told My citizens that all power was given to Me in heaven and in earth. I authorized My citizens to teach all nations to observe all things that I commanded them.  I authorized them to baptize new citizens in the name of the Father and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.  

I also authorized them to cast out devils, heal the sick, and destroy the works of the devil.  Never forget the authorization I have given you in My name.

CALL

While Jeremiah was in prison, I invited Jeremiah to call upon Me.  He certainly had plenty of time to do this.  I promised Jeremiah that if he called upon Me,  I would show him great and mighty things that he did not know."

I invite you today to call upon Me.  In fact, I want you to call upon Me every day of your life.  My promise is that if you will call upon Me, I will answer you, and I will also reveal things to you that you never knew.

I am calling My beloved to come up to Me where I am seated.  It is true that you are already seated with Me in heavenly places far above all principalities, powers, rulers of darkness, and wickedness in heavenly places.  However, many of My beloved have lost this perspective. When you see yourself seated with Me, you will be able to do effective warfare.

JEREMIAH 3:1-3
