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.

REVEAL

You live in a day when I am uncovering those who have lied and done wickedly.  I always avenge evil, and I have promised to bring all evil into My light so that it will be revealed.

Luke wrote these words: "For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; neither hid, that shall not be made known (Luke 12:2)."

I will shine My light upon those things that My adversary has done in the shadows and in the dark.  My light is brighter than any darkness. The evil you see in your nation will be exposed and I will deal with it.

LUKE 12:2

VEIL

When I cried with a loud voice, and  gave up My Spirit, the veil of the Temple was rent from top to bottom.  In that moment, the veil that separated you from entering into My throne room was removed.

My body and My shed blood provided the perfect sacrifice that makes it possible today for you to have an intimate relationship with both My Father and Me through My Holy Spirit.  

When the veil of My flesh was torn on the cross, I made it possible for you to have victory over your own flesh. Daily enjoy the intimate fellowship I have provided for you, and never take it for granted.

MARK 15:38


DISPLAY

The psalmist years ago wrote these words: "You have given a banner to those who fear You, that it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah"

In this same psalm, the psalmist wrote these words: " You have made the earth to tremble; You have broken it: heal the breaches thereof; for it shakes (Psalm 60:2).

Everything that can be shaken is shaking right now.  The psalmist added this as our hope: "You have given a banner to those Who fear You, that it may be displayed because of the truth." Selah (Psalm 60:4). That banner is My Word and it is time that My church returns to My Word so they can raise this banner.

PSALM 60

EXALT

When Peter and the apostles were told not to speak any longer about Me, they boldly proclaimed that they should obey God and not man.

Peter went on to share how My Father had exalted Me with His right hand to be a Prince and a Savior, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.

I am in that exalted position today, and through My Holy Spirit's power, repentance can come to your nation.  Keep praying for My Spirit to send that gift of repentance to your nation and the world. 

ACTS 5:28-31

CONFORM

When you think of the word, "conform," you recognize that the word has a smaller word ,"form," in it. Something is formed when it is poured into a mold like liquid clay poured into a ceramic form.

Paul exhorted believers to not be conformed to the world, but instead to be transformed by the renewal of our minds.  The only way that a believer can have his or her mind renewed is through the Word of God.

The Word only has this transforming power when My Word is anointed to not only to renew your mind, but also renew your heart or change your heart.  Pray daily for Me to give you My heart because when you display My heart to others, their heart will be changed.

ROMANS 12:1-2

ENTIRE

My brother James exhorted believers to allow patience to have her perfect work within them so that they may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.

I want you to trust My timing for everything in your life.  As you trust Me, you will be able to draw upon the fruit of the spirit called patience.  The patience My brother spoke of is long suffering.

Long suffering means that you are willing to always wait upon Me and My timing. When you are willing to wait upon My work to be done in your life, I will be able to renew your strength and your faith and trust in Me.

JAMES 1:4

INCREASE

During this harvest time, some will sow, plant, and water.  However, I am the LORD of the harvest and I will always give the increase.

Pray for the increase of rain in the days of the latter rain.  I have promised to pour out My Spirit upon all flesh.  Only the gift of repentance sent from My throne room by the Holy Spirit can cause conviction.

The conviction that will lead to repentance will come upon many in your time.  Persevere in prayer for more laborers for the harvest.  Pray that there will be an increase daily of people who come to know Me.

1 CORINTHIANS 3:6

SUPPORT

"Who will you support?" This is question that many are asking as your election season approaches.  My servant Paul shared who he considered worthy of supporting.  1Thessalonians 5:14: "Now we exhort you, brethren, warn those who are unruly, comfort the feeble minded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.

Pray now that those who believe in Me will be patient toward all men.  The fruit of true patience is endurance and perseverance.  Keep your focus on Me, and you will stay solid in your faith.

Pray for those who are weak in faith to receive the gift of faith that comes through hearing My Word. Pray against chaos and unruliness. Paul exhorted also to not render evil for evil, but to follow what was good.

1 THESSALONIANS 5:14-15

VANISH

You have no idea what tomorrow will bring. When you look at your life, it seems like the days passed so quickly.  

My brother James compared life to a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away. This is why every day of your life is so very important.

Commit your life to Me daily so that I can fulfill My purposes in your life.  I want you to fulfill all of the works that I have written in your Book of Life.

JAMES 4:14

DEALT

You can remember so many times when I have dealt kindly and mercifully with you.  Even those times when I chastened you, I dealt with you like a loving father deals with his child.

Remember the time that your father had to spank you because of your disobedience.  When you stopped crying and entered the room where your dad was, he put you in his lap and kissed you.

Your dad even pointed out that at that very moment a song that was entitled with your name was playing on the radio.  After I chasten My children, I kiss them and I sing to them because I know they have a heart to obey Me.

PSALM 13:6

CONFIDENCE

Sometimes when you are praying for a person to be convicted by My Holy Spirit to repent of his or her sins, you may lack confidence or have a hard time believing that this person could change.

Do you believe that it is My will and that My greatest desire is that none perish, but that all come to know Me as their LORD and Savior? (2 Peter 3:9)

If you believe that I came to save the lost and that I have the power to redeem people from their sinful ways, then you should have great confidence when you pray for the lost or even prodigals. The confidence you have is that when you pray anything according to My will is that I will hear you and grant your request.

1 JOHN 5:14-15
