Less of me, more of You//Más de Ti, menos de mí

Reading the book of 1 Samuel 3.(Make sure you read it asking the Lord to make you understand what HE needs you to understand in Jesus name.)

May 19, 2024. The Lord and HIS ways. Today woke up around 12noon, listened to the Bible, surrendered the day to the Lord and received an offering that someone was led to send after I was led to ask, for food for lunch and dinner, as lately I have been praying for needed items and I hear who to ASK. It has been 3 days of resting body, soul, from Friday till today, unpacking all that has happened and has been done together with the Holy Spirit and learning and understanding ASKING: Matthew 7:⁷ “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. ⁸ For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. ⁹ “Which of you, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone? ¹⁰ Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? ¹¹ If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him! ¹² So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets. Galatians 2: ²⁰ I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. We are constantly learning, we arrive and are fully made perfect when Jesus comes back, in the meantime we are being polished and processed, we are redeemed to redeem in Jesus name. It is not easy, but it is only thru the Holy Spirit that this all can be done, and if anyone understands is the Lord, who came as fully human to die for us. It is a humbling honor to have access to the Lord’s creation and BE in HIS hands and will.

Thursday which was the last blog post done; when coming back from doing the Great Commission around the hotel that has been hosting the international immigrants that have been arriving for a year now to New York; there was a sense of draining and exhaustion, which I had been sensing from the night that was spent outside of a shelter because of different reasons that ended up in ministering to the men that came in and out, with also them being led to be of food and company provision from the Holy Spirit, where after I just cried and cried, messaged a few brothers and sisters in the morning and one was led to tell me to come to her home to shower and freshen up, then being led to tell me to stay in a discipleship home for the youth. At first it was thought that I could only stay till last Sunday, but the Lord has made a way for me to stay as HE leads and for the time HE says. It has been 3 days of crying out to the Lord, hearing from the Holy Spirit, getting refilled, understanding the principalities that have been fought in each place, false beliefs, recharged and being heard by the body of Christ. Also being provided as I need and told by the Holy Spirit as to who to ASK, for the reasons that the Holy Spirit knows, from food to needed items. It is interesting how in America the Holy Spirit is having me do that. It is interesting to me that while in the 21 countries from March of 2021, to March of this year I rarely had to ask going from Dominican Republic, to all of Central, South America, Africa, Paris, 3 cities in Spain and then coming back and in America people have to be asked, where people have so much, but the Lord knows why, which the Holy Spirit has also given me understanding of why HE has me asking.

Thankful and humbled always by the ways of the Lord who when HE calls HE makes sure we have all we need to do the Great Commission; Matthew 28: The Great Commission ¹⁶ Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. ¹⁷ When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. ¹⁸ Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. ¹⁹ Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, ²⁰ and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” Zechariah 4:⁶ So he said to me, “This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel: ‘Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ says the Lord Almighty. And: Proverbs 3: 5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; ⁶ in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. Are a constant reminder. Only the Lord, Holy Spirit knows how long HE has me here doing and not having to roll the suitcase all over the place, being surrounded by the body of Christ, receiving and giving, as it is what happens when the body of Christ comes together, as the Bible says in Proverbs 27:¹⁷ As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another. With Hebrews 10:25 the Holy Spirit is referring to coming together to encourage one another and receive not with just anyone but with and from Holy Spirit filled people: Hebrews 10: ²⁵ not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.

In the time the Holy Spirit has had me here in the discipleship house; HE has also sent people for me to be heard and pour into. It is interesting for me to receive mercy and kindness as I am usually in places doing warfare and not really being wanted to be there(not me but the Holy Spirit is not wanted in those places, but the will of the Lord is done, as HE teaches us thru endurance for those who will understand and receive Jesus to receive the Holy Spirit to receive healing, restoration, purpose, eternal life, fruits, gifts, new life and much more to eventually answer the Great Commission), but the Lord in HIS Grace has made a way to receive as always, and as the resting in HIM, doing also happens, in this season and moving forward, as HE makes sure that it happens from time to time, HE knows what we need or is needed to keep moving forward.The Lord reminds us in Exodus 20:8-11 of the importance of resting in HIM, as HE does not want us to become slaves of HIS, of anyone or anything:⁸ “Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. ⁹ Six days you shall labor and do all your work, ¹⁰ but the seventh day is a sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your male or female servant, nor your animals, nor any foreigner residing in your towns. ¹¹ For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy. Praying and thanking the Lord for the new week that starts tomorrow; where with HIS refill and leading I am looking forward to the Miracles and wonders that are to come. Thankful for the vessels the Holy Spirit has moved and used for so much and will continue doing as the Holy Spirit leads.

I have been led to share testimonies in this blog/podcast page of teachings and testimonies by the Holy Spirit. He knows why and what each person needs to hear, listen, and or do. I don’t know who or how many people the Lord will move for the rest of the nights, transportation, food, and other needs moving forward; it would be a blessing to many if it could be you. For However the Lord leads to be of support to this Great Commission, contact me through email: Lourdeskdelacruz@gmail.com, CashApp: Lourdes Delacruz: $Lourdeskdelacruz, Zelle: Lourdes K Delacruz, Lourdeskdelacruz@gmail.com, Revolut:@lourdeh0t5, for Western Union email me to get full name, for monetary support, with how much the Lord leads, for this Great Commission. Thanking the Lord for those who are praying for both my daughter and me, as well as for those answering the Great Commission around the world, and also for praying for the Lord’s kingdom to come and will to be done in Jesus’ name.

Jesus wants you to know that HE LOVES YOU. He wants a relationship with you. Our sins separate us from God when we break his commandments. But if we repent and accept Jesus as our God and Savior, there is forgiveness, healing, restoration, purpose, eternal life, and much more. Talk to Him.🙏He wants to hear from you. 🖤 We are born to be loved by the Lord, to worship HIM, and to obey HIM through HIS Great Commission.
