How To "DO LOVE" Even When It's HARD
VISIT the NETWORK here: https://bit.ly/Daughters-United-Network
This month's topic: How to "DO LOVE" Even When It's Hard Sometimes we DO LOVE because we LOVE a person or we are motivated because of their love for us. There are other reasons too, we can DO LOVE out of an obligation, a duty, or a promise… On the sermon on the Mount, Jesus took this “heart issue” and took it to the next level when He said… “You’re familiar with the old written law, ‘Love your friend,’ and its unwritten companion, ‘Hate your enemy.’ I’m challenging that. I’m telling you to love your enemies. Let them bring out the best in you, not the worst. When someone gives you a hard time, respond with the supple moves of prayer, for then you are working out of your true selves, your God-created selves. This is what God does. He gives his best—the sun to warm and the rain to nourish—to everyone, regardless: the good and bad, the nice and nasty. If all you do is love the lovable, do you expect a bonus? Anybody can do that. If you simply say hello to those who greet you, do you expect a medal? Any run-of-the-mill sinner does that.” Matthew 5:43-47 MSG What Jesus is giving us here is a mandate to DO LOVE… even when it’s HARD… but he doesn’t leave us without resources. We don’t DO LOVE out of our own LOVE TANK… but HIS. As we draw on the depths of HIS MARVELOUS LOVE we become just the conduit for GODS LOVE to reach them…HE is the source. GOD’s LOVE can sometimes be TOUGH LOVE. “Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.” 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 NIV ❤️ In Psalm 55: 12-14 King David cried out… “It is not an enemy who taunts, sneers, makes fun of, reproaches me— I could bear that. It is not my foes who so arrogantly insult me— I could have hidden from them. Instead, it is you—my equal, my companion and close friend. What good fellowship we once enjoyed as we walked together to the house of God.” “God BLESSES those who are merciful… for they will be shown MERCY.” Matthew 5:7 As we reflect GOD’s MERCY… HIS MERCY will overflow in our own lives. Sometimes we DO LOVE because we LOVE a person or we are motivated because of their love for us. * MENTOR ME LIVE! is a monthly event where you can glean wisdom from our coaches panel to help you gain spiritual and practical insights to not only survive, but thrive in areas of Life, Relationships, Family, Identity and Equipping. You'll find the support you need in our UNITED NETWORK to recognize, rise up and run with your God-given gifts, callings, and NOW assignments.
Unshakeable Things
Where are you today?
How are you today?
Are you experiencing peace that passes understanding, or are you already bone-weary from all the racing?
After a tremendously difficult 2023, I finally settled myself in close before the Lord
on New Years Eve and rang in 2024 with HIM.
I was done in, wrecked as we would say, as I scribed these words that He gave to me that night.
As I share this word with you today, I am praying that it will move you as it did me.
Yes, Lord... Your Will, Your Way...
Here I am.
Teach me, I am listening...

Own Your Assignment Without Apology- Karen Stally
BUFFALO...a CITY of LIGHT!
DAUGHTERS UNITED was birth in 2017, out of a heart cry for COMMUNITY, MENTORING and NETWORKING among women in Marketplace and Ministry.
One Sunday morning, sitting in a church service, I heard Pastor Tommy Reid share his story about driving in Buffalo in the 1990’s
-down RT 5, past the DRY BONES of Bethlehem Steel, over the skyway, past the dead industrial waterfront, and into the broken down streets of downtown.
He shared how it broke his heart... Oh how my heart leapt! I understood this pain, as I had also wept tears on these same streets for many years.
He then prayed for the Lord to breathe life upon these Dry Bones of Buffalo,
That once again it would rise as a great city.
He was rejoicing that now in his 80's, he had lived to see God begin to answer his prayers!
At that moment the Lord touched my heart, and poured a vision into me.
I saw a huge arena filled with women worshipping the Lord
and around the perimeter stood white tents, each representing a different area of outreach or ministry...
I heard a gentle voice whisper deep in my spirit,
“Gather my Daughters”... for such a time as this!
Thus was the birthing of DAUGHTERS UNITED, a global Mentoring and Equipping Ministry for Women on Mission.
Linette Rainville, Founder and Lead Visionary
PRAYER FOR BUFFALO... THE CITY OF LIGHT!
Lord God!
We pour out our hearts to you on behalf of the City of Buffalo, WNY and this whole REGION.
Father, once she was a LIGHT to the NATION, and you called her the CITY of LIGHT.
She was an industrial passageway and you called her the QUEEN CITY.
You called her the CITY of BROTHERLY LOVE because of the depth of LOVE and CARE she has for her neighbors and visitors.
LORD GOD, we ask that you would RISE UP the DRY BONES of this city.
We already see that your hand has been at work here at our waterfront, at Canalside, at our Military Park and our Medical Corridor.
We see LIFE RISING UP all over this city and this region.
FATHER GOD, today we ask you also to RISE UP a Spirit of UNITY among our CHURCHES to
BE your LOVE to each other,
to HEAL our racial and religious wounds,
to tear down our denominational walls,
that we could ALL join our DRY BONES together and work as ONE BODY as you first intended us to work.
Lord we DECLARE… you will put muscle and bone onto this BODY, and you will BREATHE a fresh breath of your SPIRIT into us.
POUR your LOVE upon us Father.
POUR your LOVE into our Churches.
BURST through our doors and our walls.
POUR your LOVE back into us that we may POUR IT back out into the streets, into the highways, into the byways.
By THIS LORD, they will know that we are YOURS.
By our LOVE they will know that we are your servants, that we are Christians serving YOU JESUS,
LOVING you, HONORING you, leading the way to your HEART and to RECONCILIATION with YOU.
We LOVE YOU FATHER and we thank you, and we PRAISE YOU for all that you are doing,
and ALL that you are GOING to do in this GREAT CITY and in this GREAT REGION in BUFFALO, NY and NIAGARA FALLS.
POUR, POUR, POUR your LOVE into us, that we can pour out into others.
In JESUS NAME we pray. AMEN.
Christmas 21'...Never Alone!
Does this Christmas look different for you?
This has been a difficult year for so many, and the Lord put it on my heart to share a word of encouragement with you today.
I pray that you are blessed and refreshed from this little word that I pray will bring a smile to your face, a knowing that you are not alone, and renewed hope for the journey ahead of you.
I hold you in my heart and in my prayers...
Love,
Linette

Maybe in careers, in relationships, education etc... God is saying today that "He is in the NEW BEGINNINGS!" "The vessel that the potter was shaping, became flawed in his hand, so he began again, he crushed it into a lump (NLT). Any of you feel like you've been crushed into a lump? Yep... been there too! The text continues... "The potter reworked it (reshaped it), he remade it into another vessel that seemed best to him." Jeremiah 18:4 ENCOURAGEMENT: GOD is in the BEGINNINGS, the REMAKING, the BEGINNING AGAIN! You have never gone too far, you have never walked too far away from that thing that God has CALLED you to do, that you can't go back to it. You CAN BEGIN AGAIN!

Sea of Love
Hello my friends! I am about to share a raw and real moment with you that I had this morning with the Lord.
I was overwhelmed by HIS PRESENCE.
I pray that the anointing and presence that I experienced would be felt by you through these airways.
Here is the transcription:
Linette Rainville here,
I just want to capture this moment and share with you what I have just experienced.
As I sat in the Lord's presence this morning, I could just feel the SEA, the SEA of LOVE that HE is in.
He showed me that the valves have been clogged. He showed me that the PRESSURE of the SEA is going to burst open those valves!
Like a dam bursting, there is going to be a MIGHTY RUSH. A MIGHTY RUSH of God's love and the love of Jesus.
A pure unfailing love that is going to sweep over people.
This is what I am feeling right now...
It is so pure and so beautiful, and so cleansing!
This is the Third Great Anointing that is going to FLOOD across our LAND.
People will be changed in an instant.
This is so raw, it is so real.
I started to write this morning, this is when the vision happened,
and I am still in HIS PRESENCE now... this is what I wrote. (transcribed from Holy Spirit)
"I am preparing you for purpose and positioning your path for the destiny I have imprinted on your soul and put in your spirit-
before one of your days came to be.
O my sweet daughter, I am HERE with you! I am pouring into you my oil of joy and taking away this spirit of heaviness.
Look into my eyes like you look into the SEA, my LOVE and care for you are like these waters that have no end.
I know how hungry you are to be loved with TRUE LOVE, an unselfish love, a merciful love.
You daughter are feeling MY heart.
For I search for those same things in my BRIDE, in my BELOVED.
I have poured my gift of PURE LOVE into you and now I need you to pour it out into the world.
The source of this PURE LOVE is deeper than the seas and you will NEVER run dry.
I AM your ever supply.
Life's cares and worries can sometimes clog up the valves, but the SUPPLY is always FULL.
The pressure of the fullness is like a dam that will BURST FREE, and clear the way...setting my love free to flow.
My LOVE always will find a way into the portal of your heart.
Bringing wholeness to your soul."
Father, I thank you for this word.
I sense so much that this is a WORD for your entire BRIDE...
to get before you and feel the FLOOD of your LOVE over us.
Unclog these valves Lord, for us to feel and to know your TRUE LOVE,
your PURE LOVE. And to be able to open up our valves and pour it into the world.
Thank you Father for this word. Holy Spirit thank you, thank you. FLOW.
We ask you to flow over our land, flow over our land.
I love you and I bless you in Jesus mighty name.
Thank you for this word, thank you. AMEN.
The NEW WAR: BRIDE in BOOTS, ARISE!
Hello dear brother and sister.
This is Linette Rainville, coming to you from Daughters United.
Friends, we know there is a NEW WAR brewing!
Today I’ve been prompted to share an account of the WAR DREAM I had in July of 2019,
In July of 2019: The Lord gave me a vivid dream about the The NEW WAR…
This war was between two armies made up of women. We were on a battlefield. The Daughters of God, were dressed in renaissance clothing armed with bows, arrows and quivers strapped to our backs. We had shields in one hand and swords
in the other. Different tribes with different colors, all banned together.
We stood shoulder to shoulder, forming a line of defense.
I stood in the middle, on the front line…the warriors with us started to look afraid.
Suddenly there was a strong presence of the Holy Spirit hovered over us, binding us closer together as one unit and we became brave.
On the other side of the battlefield,
stood a crowd of other women yelling and chanting at us.
They were wearing camo, head wraps, and body coverings.
They carried machine guns, they had war paint on their faces and wore heavy artillery as their sashes. They were impressive and intimidating, much like the giant Goliath. Sneers, mocking and taunting came from them.
Their leader began staring me down with hatred in her eyes and walked up to me, face to face.
Then the Lord spoke in my dream,
“Look, look behind you! There are many MORE OF YOU, than there are of them!
I turned & looked and saw a horizon of beautiful light coming from a sea of clouds that illuminated the
vast army of women warriors that stood with us.
The Lord continued…
Daughter, Your weapons to pierce the darkness
are more powerful than their weapons of destruction.
Do not be afraid to stand and fight, for the Lord your God is sending you!
I will go before you.
I am equipping you for this righteous uprising.”
I awoke with such a boldness in my soul.
I said, “Yes Lord, even unto death I will fight for you…for my life is yours!
Friends…
Holy Spirit is sending out a CLARION CALL for His church to
ARISE, GATHER, UNIFY, and gain STRENGTH under HIS Banner,
under the cloud of illumination of HIS GREAT LOVE.
Every church and believer is being called to attention.
He is especially commissioning His daughters to carry
“His TORCH of RIGHTEOUSNESS”, lighting the path before us- for such a time as this!
He is saying… ARISE my BRIDE in BOOTS!
I am releasing you to set captives free in this new era, IT IS beginning in 2020
And it will continue…
As you go forth, there will be a mighty army assembling with you!
You my ROYAL DAUGHTER, You do not fight alone.
I charge you today my Daughter to RELEASE the SOUND,
RELEASE THE MAMA BEAR ROAR,
RELEASE THE BELLS OF LIBERTY!
RING OUT! RING OUT! RING OUT!
YOUR PRAISE WILL SHAKE THE FOUNDATIONS!
YOUR PRAISE WILL BREAK SHAKLES AND SET CAPTIVES FREE!
RESOUND THE BELLS OF LIBERTY!!
RING OUT! RING OUT!
For this IS THE 11TH HOUR!
DAUGHTERS… you ARE THE MOVEMENT that AMERICA has been waiting for…
You ARE his BRIDE in BOOTS, that LADY LIBERTY has been holding her torch for…
You ARE the MOVEMENT of RIGHTEOUSNESS that our WARRIOR KING is releasing across our land,
RESOUND THE BELLS OF LIBERTY!
Ring Out! Ring Out!
This IS the 11th HOUR!
Leading in Love,
Linette Rainville

RESOUND the BELLS of LIBERTY!
RESOUND THE BELLS OF LIBERTY!
Ring Out! Ring Out!
This IS the 11th HOUR!
Word from November 28th 2020
I hear the Lord saying… now GO!
I say again GO! RESOUND YOUR BELLS of LIBERTY!
Day and night, Ring them on the 11th hour!
ARISE my BRIDE and RING YOUR BELLS OF LIBERTY!
Day and Night, Night and Day ring out and let my
Spirit of TRUTH, and RIGHTEOUSNESS and LIBERTY be released
Throughout your land.
Stand, be STEADFAST, keep STANDING…
Watch what I will do on your behalf!
“Don’t doubt in the dark, what you have heard me say in the light.”
I AM about to move and you MUST BE STEADFAST!
I AM CALLING out to my Joshua’s and my Esther’s to Arise in my name.
The mighty SWORD OF CHRIST JESUS, your warrior KING is about to be released!
No man will be able to take credit for this, but I the Lord your God, Jehovah.
Standfast!
Watch and see what I HAVE DONE!
Set your face like flint and walk BRAVELY in your circle, in your assignment
and with the mantle I have given you for this moment.
You MUST NOT doubt, you MUST NOT concede, but BELIEVE!
BELIEVE THAT I HAVE BEEN WATCHING FROM MY MERCY SEAT.
Believe that I have seen everything that has happened behind closed doors.
NOW…I SHALL STAND.
NOW I will proclaim the LIBERTY of this NATION that I have established.
For I declare…
America is NOT for SALE.
Hamon WILL hang on the gallows. Goliath SHALL fall!
Cyrus will fulfill the plans and purpose I have set for him.
“Because the Sovereign Lord helps me, I will not be disgraced!
Therefore, have I set my face like flint, and I know I will not be put to shame..
For He who gives Justice is near and will vindicate me.” Isaiah 50:7-8
For I now see that there IS a NATION within the Nation of America.
One whose loyalty belongs to the Kingdom of Heaven and Christ her KING.
Even unto death, I see you mighty subjects standing and fighting for the cause of Heaven.
My Spirit of Unity is rising within you.
Arise my Bride & Stand for LIFE, MARRIAGE, FAMILY, and IDENTITY
as my CHRISTIAN NATION and as my Sons and Daughters.
For the ALMIGHTY STANDS and is preparing to STRIKE...
With LIMITLESS POWER!
AMEN.

WOMEN ON MOUNTAINS 2020
Women on Mountains
-Linette Rainville
The Lord spoke to my heart and said... IT'S TIME!
It's time to release the ESTHER CALLING!
Here are notes from my journal entry: 17 JAN 20
I woke up with a dream this morning on January 17th, 2020.
In my dream, I saw that mountains were rising up all over our country and women leaders were standing on top of those mountains.
They were calling out to the Lord and beckoning sisters to join her on that mountain.
Big ones and little ones were sprouting up everywhere!
I inquired of the Lord and He said “PRAY!!!”
“Pray for these mighty mountains to rise up, Daughters who will be my ambassadors,
who will intercede on that mountain for her country and her people.
For I am releasing an Esther Calling. I am rising up leaders of mountains over states, over cities, over territories
who shall be my foot soldiers to take the land! My Bride in Boots!
Fast & Pray, Train & Take Arms, for the Lord your God has spoken this decree!
Watch and see the mighty right hand of your Father move on your behalf!
The landscape of your land is about to change!”
“And who knows but that you have come to your royal position for such a time as this?” Esther 4:14
So to you dear Sister, who has been doubting her assignment, I confirm and commission you.
You have a niche, you have a following, you have a territory that is assigned to YOU… know what YOU carry!
No one else can reach your world the way you can!
Go ahead… STAND on your MOUNTAIN, lift high your SWORD, and take the ground that the Father has given you!
This is the SET TIME I am calling my DAUGHTERS to ARISE and SHINE!
The Lord is saying it’s time.
It’s time for me to release this word.
It’s time to ADVANCE.
It’s time to lift up your voice.
It’s time to take territory.
It’s time to bring light to darkness.
It’s time to bring living water to the dry places.
It’s time to WAR…
It’s time to GATHER, It’s time to Breathe, It’s time to ROAR!
Leading in Love,
Linette xo
