Alice Mims

Alice Mims humbly loves to write for God. Alice has four beloved adult children and four beloved grandchildren. Throughout her life, Alice has seen the wonders of God while facing her own life's tribulations. She has grown closer to her Heavenly Father, sharing her revelations and prophecies with others. From a young age, Alice has supported the elderly within her community and cherishes the wisdom that she gained from them over the years. After marriage, while still attending college, on her lunch break, she would enjoy visiting with her daughter, who attended the Queensborough Community College Daycare on-site, and Alice would volunteer there and read stories to the children. Professionally Alice spent years working with children of all ages, including children with special needs (autism), and was blessed to learn to be grateful in all things. The majority of her profession was spent at The New York City Board of Education. In her series, The Kingdom of God Is at Hand, this being the first volume, Alice shares biblical scriptures and inspirational words from God as they are given to her. These pages of revelations have been sought-after by pastors, prophets, and spiritual leaders alike. Alice has a passion for the elderly and children; she is currently working on a collection of children's books. Alice would like to thank her lifetime friends of twenty-five-plus years for their constant support and continued encouragement throughout her writing journey. Alice is the CEO and founder of Window of Blessings, which is up and coming, where she will continue to write inspirational golden nuggets, sharing them with the world through useful products, honoring God.

Inspired by God

Seek ye the Lord while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near (Isaiah 55:6).

Preface

Why Should We Seek God Now?

God says, I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me (Proverbs 8:17).

God/the Lord informs us in His Word, And the Lord said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the Lord, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it (Job 1:7). God does not want us to give way to the devil (Satan) because he is evil; we should never trust him. As we see, God in His Word tells us that Satan is evil and is our enemy; he walks the earth. Satan is also known as the thief; God wants us to know that this thief (Satan) is amongst the earth, and what do thieves do? The Holy Spirit says God does not want you blind to the truth, the thief—he aims to steal your hope in the Persons of God (the truth), your calling/purpose, your gifts/talents, your joy, your peace, your health, your soul, your life, and so much more. God says if you know what Satan’s plan is, then there is a good chance that you would come to the knowledge of the truth, that God is the only One who is more than able to fight against the enemy and win. God says, the enemy who is: The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly (John 10:10). God wants us to know,

There is one body, and one Spirit, as ye are called in one hope of your calling; one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all. But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ. Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive and gave gifts unto men. (Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth? He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.) And he gave some apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: till we come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ: That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ: From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.

Ephesians 4:4–16

The Holy Spirit says, For I will not have My children ignorant to the truth; the cries of My children I will not ignore, and I will help those who seek/cry out to Me, with all their heart. Amen. For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succored thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation (2 Corinthians 6:2).

May You Accompany Me,

on a Surprisingly Fulfilling Journey

into the Shekinah Presence of God

As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he saith unto the ruler of the synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe (Mark 5:36). Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me (John 14:1).

Why Is Life So Important?

Life is so important because life is the very breath of God in us, and with each breath we take, there is an opportunity/a chance for us to actually be and do what God originally intended for us. Amen.

What Is Hope?

The future is priceless; it is something to very much look forward to. Why? Because the future is where hope is. Hope is amazing; it is supernatural even. No matter what the day brings, we all have this in common: the future. We can be excited about our future because of hope. Hope is in Jesus Christ, the Lord, who came to give us the abundance of life. He is the One True God who is on our side, and when we choose Him, He holds our future in His hands. Come now, and let us hope in the future together.

By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. And not so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; And patience, experience; and experience, hope: And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

Romans 5:2–5

For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for (Romans 8:24)? Jesus saith unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth (Mark 9:23). Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is (Jeremiah 17:7). Again, The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly (John 10:10). Amen.

Golden Nugget

How do we know we need something when we do not even know we need it? We know we need something when we are never satisfied. I’ve seen that the Word of God satisfies.

Let Us Pray…

We cry, Abba/Father, thank You for your unfailing love; forgive us and cleanse us from every known and unknown sin that we have done. Lord, please, help us not to do it again. For every breath we take, for every morning we wake, for every moment of every hour, for every second we live, it is by Your breath in us; we live because You allow it.

Oh, Father, touch us now with Your power and by Your might, to cleanse us, through and through, healing us of every unclean, any unrighteous, and anything that is not meant for our good, restoring us to our original intent by which You created us for, that we may prosper and be in good health, as our soul prospers. Give us a right spirit and a pure heart that we may surrender to You. Help us to follow You all the days of our life, to bring You honor and glory, in Jesus’ name. We know that everything must obey Jesus. We thank You, for you are God Almighty. We know that this is Your will for us to pray—You always want the best for us; there is nothing too hard for You; we call on You, and we say it is done. Amen.

And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask anything according to his will, he heareth us: and if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him (1 John 5:14–15). Let thy mercy, O Lord, be upon us, according as we hope in thee (Psalm 33:22). He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions (Psalm 107:20). Amen.

Golden Nugget

And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams (Acts 2:17).

Chapter 1

Just as You Are!

Some will say that they must prepare to know/meet God. God wants us to be willing to believe that God is able to receive us just as we are. He is calling on us to stop making excuses/delaying forming a personal relationship with Him. God has already provided everything needed for us to be with Him. We must understand that God knows, and He cares for us; you can come to Him just as you are. For when we were still in sin, God came to save us. God gave us Jesus (His Son), For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him (2 Corinthians 5:21).

For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; and that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: and that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: after that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.

1 Corinthians 15:3–6

But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life (Romans 5:8, 10). Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth (1 Timothy 2:4). There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it (1 Corinthians 10:13). For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved (John 3:17). For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost (Matthew 18:11). Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool (Isaiah 1:18).

If we are weak or just a mess, God says, My strength is made perfect in your weakness, and I, the Lord your God, can take your mess and make it a masterpiece! We can never be so messed up that God is not able to save us. "And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory
