Covenant Sisters Network invites you to join faith with sisters in the WORD.

 Life has tossed many unexpected curve balls our way. Events that have further compounded the negative words, thoughts and visuals that conveniently cast doubts on ones self-image.  For example, having been told “you will never amount to anything”.  Perhaps told that , “you are ugly ” or experienced other forms of  abuse.   The effects are often magnified untruths about your temple both  inner beauty and outer essence. Those curve balls in some cases have stunted growth in terms of relationships, career, ministry, financial  pursuits and overall desire to live.

The enemy’s objective is to attack the body of Christ, yet we are not defeated. Women of the WORD often find themselves in warfare for their family, friends, and themselves. It is important to form covenant relationships to prevent isolation and exhaustion of spirit, soul and body. The devil knows what happens when women of the WORD join faith in prayer – his plans are annihilated. “Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.” NIV Ecclesiastes 4:12                 It is in our most intimate quiet time that worship kindles faith that unleashes power that breaks the chains of the enemy.

This site is for homemakers, career oriented women, students, married and single women of any generation. The collaborative effort of Covenant Sisters Network (CSN) will challenge you to implement the concept of “Trinity Wholeness “ which consist of a daily regimen of quiet time, emotional restoration, and healthy strategies. The idea of maintaining balance in spirit, soul and body is the epitome of our existence to ensure we are equipped spiritually, emotionally and physically.

Covenant Sisters Network (CSN) is dedicated to self –care of the whole person spirit, soul and body. God loves you and so do we. “The LORD your God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves. He will take great delight in you; in his love he will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing.” Zephaniah 3:17 NIV

In all that you do allow your gifting to bear fruit that glorifies God.

“My Father is glorified by this: that you produce much fruit and prove to be my disciples” John 15:8 HCB

Stop looking at what others are doing for“A manifestation of the Spirit is given to each person to produce what is beneficial” ICor 12:7 HCB

For the Lord GOD will help me; therefore shall I not be confounded: therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed. Isaiah 50:7 HCB chase hard after the will of God.

The LORD is righteous: he hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked Psalm 129.4 KJV you are no longer bound.

 “I have spoken these things to you so that My joy may be in you and your joy may be complete. John 15:11 HCB

Remember:

The yoke of Christ is easy entangling in Him.  Your burdens become light when you connect with the yoke of Christ. The anointing is what breaks the yoke. Take the focus off the situation and get in His presence the anointing breaks the yoke. Isn’t the fast I choose: To break the chains of wickedness, to untie the ropes of the yoke, to set the oppressed free, and to tear off every yoke? Isaiah 58:6 HCB “ I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.”Jer. 29:11 HCB

I am  excited about the next 38 days as we journey through the book of Jonah to look at how God can take what seems disappointing, devastating and possible hopeless and turn the situation around full circle in victory.

Right when you felt you were on the path of your journey toward destiny when your course changes drastically. How? Why? You feel paralyzed stuck  in the traffic of life. It can be hard to look at you place of Nineveh  as a holding place to hear God. Your Nineveh could be caring for an elderly family member, or interceding for loved ones or co-workers. Your Nineveh could be singleness through divorce, death, prehaps economic changes but what do you do? How do you respond?

Remember this new path of life can be like a call to Nineveh – a place to mature and move into the fullness of who you are destine to be I did not say it would not be painful, scary, or difficult. Don’t stay in the belly of your whale too long. Allow yourself to move toward the call. Someone is counting on your humility and obedience to stay on the course. Get in his presence remember the anointing breaks the yoke, releasing you to operate in freedom.

During the next 37 days grab your bible, a pen , and journal and watch what happens when you pray, plan and prosper spiritually, mentally, and physically during this study. The book we are studying is Life Interrupted by Priscilla Shirer.

I. Scriptural text: Isaiah 10:27 “ And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing.”
II. Questions to ponder:
1. What is your Nineveh?
2. While in the belly of the whale what will you do? Hint: Prayer, praise and worship.
III. Quiet Time “silence for meditation” Rest in his presence, worships him, and then takes a moment to be silent in his presence.
IV. Journal Reflection: Write about what you experienced during the time of pondering, and meditation on scriptural insight. Where do you go from here?
Comments: Post what you gleaned from the first chapter of the book or share a brief testimony.

Hello ,

Thank you for surfing the Trinity Wholeness Ministries Blog

I am so excited about the next 39 days as we journey through the book of  Jonah to look at how God can take what seems disappointing , devastating and possible hopeless and turn the situation around full circle in victory.  Have  you ever hit a pot hole and your car or bicycle went reckless back and forth in the road? Well life unplanned situations  can do that too, but thank God for the word, prayer and strength to stand in faith. 

Have you ever felt unworthy to be used by God because you did not complete a task?  Perhaps you feel intellectually inadequate. You hear instructions to tell others about salvation but resist because it appears your love ones are not heeding the voice of salvation.  Jonah was given several task during his life. 

Jonah’s first mission was given to him by Elijah — he was to anoint Jehu as king in the year 705 BCE.   After the failure of his second mission, to rebuke Jehu’s successor, Jeroboam the second, he was given his final mission. The mission that God gave him was one that he could not open his heart to accept. He was sent to the capital of Assyria, Nineveh, to urge its population to repent. How bizarre the assignment sounded to him! His own people were falling uncontrollably into a chasm that seemed to have no bottom, yet he was sent to save others — the archenemies of Israel!

Jonah actually dreaded success of this mission far more than he dreaded failure. How could he bear to witness the contrast of the Assyrians returning to God in the face of his prophecy, with the Jews stubbornly resisting any chance for spiritual self-preservation? Therefore, he attempted to escape from his destiny. 

Think about what you know about your destiny – are you in of denial or rebellion?  Priscilla Shirer’s notes that “I know what goes through a person’s mind who does not want to engage fully in the season of life God is call her into.”    Are you reluctant because of fear?  You think you lack skills for the task?  You think about haunting memories of your past? Your future and the what if’s?   

Take heart  and mediatate on  Psalm 22:10-11 says, “   I was thrust into your arms at my birth. You have been my God from the moment I was born.   Do not stay so far from me, for trouble is near, and no one else can help me.”  Learn to rest in His arms , even when you stumble and fall .

During the next 39 days grab your bible, a pen , and journal and watch what happens when you pray, plan and prosper spiritually, mentally, and physically during this study.  The book we are studying is Life Interrupted by Priscilla Shirer.

I. Scriptural text:

“Why wasn’t I born dead? Why didn’t I die as I came from the womb? Why was I laid on my mother’s lap?  Why did she nurse me at her breasts?  Had I died at birth, I would now be at peace.  I would be asleep and at rest.” Job 3:11-13.  

II. Questions to ponder:

1.  What if Jesus chose not to fulfill his destiny of the cross?  How is sinking into sadness   like being in the belly of a whale?  Think about reasons you should be glad that you were born for  such a time as this.

2.  Why are you holding onto failures? Think about why you need to obey and move forward. Do you feel like Job in the scriptural text.

III. Quiet Time “silence for meditation” Rest in his presence, worships him, and then take a moment to be silent in his presence.

IV. Journal Reflection: Write about what you experienced during the time of pondering, and meditation   on scriptural insight. Where do you go from here?

You may want to go to college . Perhaps you are in the middle of a career or want a new career and feel God leading you in another direction – what should you do? Run like Jonah or submit to the cross like Christ?
