Another week down and I am still Victorious!

Another week is down. We had games tuesday and friday this week. Tuesday we played Hobart College, they are a top ranked national team and we tied that game, although i feel like we should of won because we played very well. Friday we played number 1 ranked Oswego. They are a darn good team, i am always impressed with how they play and we lost that game. Now our overall record is 2-3-1

I still did not get to dress in either of the games this week. That makes 6 games this season where i have not dressed still. However, my hope is still in God. My mum gave me this scripture a couple weeks ago and said this is what she heard from the Lord that He is doing:

19The Lord God is my Strength, my personal bravery, and my invincible army; He makes my feet like hinds' feet and will make me to walk [not to stand still in terror, but to walk] and make [spiritual] progress upon my high places [of trouble, suffering, or responsibility]! - Hab 3:19 (amp)

And i was thinking about this scripture yesterday and i was like, "huh man the Lord is awesome because i really am making spiritual progress upon this place of suffering". It is not fun at all not getting to play, it stinks really. But man the Lord is causing me to make progress and make good progress. Its amazing.

I continue to receive great revelation from the Lord through Joseph Prince's teachings. What the Lord is showing me right now is, I am Righteous through Jesus Christ. Once you receive a true revelation of your righteousness in Jesus it will change you forever. And its awesome that i did not earn this righteousness at all, it was a gift, therefore, i just receive that righteousness as you would any gift. And i also continue to speak that truth out loud, in the midst of mistakes i continue to proclaim, I AM RIGHTEOUS BECAUSE OF JESUS! I do not want this to just be head knowledge, so i ask the Lord that this truth would get down deep into my spirit and that is what He is doing. There is more revelation i am receiving but this is good for now i think.

I went in to talk with my coach about why i was not playing, I went in friday morning after i knew i was not playing friday night. He told me a couple of things he thought were missing in my game, mistakes i have been making. Honestly i did not see what he was saying, the "mistakes" he said i have been making in practice i tried to think back over practices and i honestly cannot remember making one of those mistakes repeatedly. Yes i do make mistakes in practice, we all do, but i do not make them continuously. So i was pretty mad after i talked with him. I went out on the ice for a pregame skate and i heard the Lord saying; "the reason i told you why you were not playing is still the reason" (the night before i had asked the Lord why i was not playing in this game friday, he said:

" there is still some fear left in your, i want you to be completely rooted deeply in the truths i am giving you before you play, so that NOTHING can shake you"

i am not saying i will be perfect before i am allowed to play, but the Lord still wants to deeply root me in this specific truth He is giving me before i play)

So i was very thankful for the Lord speaking to me in the midst of my "report" from my coach.



This upcoming week we have practice mon-thursday and then a game friday. I am really looking forward to an awesome week of practice, flowing in the grace of God abundantly. After our game friday we also have a game tuesday.

I will update next weekend after our game friday!

Love ya all, thanks for reading.
