I see you come to Me in your desire for relief. I see you asking that I arrange your life to make you feel secure. You think you need these things to breathe, and you doubt Me. As you doubt me, you hold a tight fist and determine to do what needs doing! You then come to Me asking Me to give you energy and strength to do what you feel you have to do.  But I long for you to sit awhile with Me, to seek My heart for your day. I want you to spend time with me in a peace, knowing that I am good and believing that I can satisfy you. You don’t have a need for these things you so desperately seek. I want you to let me show you that I am enough. Be still and know Me. The things you say about me, are only true to you if they can be true for you in your pain.  I want you to come to know Me well enough to know that I am all you need.  You must believe that I Am and that I will reward you when you earnestly seek Me.

Hebrews 11:6 “And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him.”

I am releasing the Spirit of the Fear of the Lord over your life today.  I Am the Lord who made the heavens and earth and I alone am to be feared. As this understanding settles over your spirit, you will release the things your hands hold. As you regard My Presence, you will stop regarding man in whose nostrils is breath, for what account is he?  My kingdom is coming into your life, for I have seen your seeking and I have heard your desire to release the things of this world. You have shown Me your desire for the things of Me, as you have laid down your sins. I have seen your repentance. I have heard your cry of Abba. My heart is moved to nourish and sustain you. Taste and see that I am good.

2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slow concerning His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient with us, not wanting anyone to perish, but for all to come to repentance. 

1 Thessalonians 2:4,6 Since I have been approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel, let me speak not as pleasing men but God, who tests my heart. May I not seek glory from men.

newtruckredI have a future walk for you, on a path that isn’t paved with regrets. Regret is as an gateway leading you on a path that will be destructive for you. I want you walking toward the upward call in My Son on the path that is paved with the cross.

On the pathway leading to My kingdom, you must go through the cross, and as you bring your regrets through the cross, they come out on the other side as promises of redemption. For I will restore the years the locusts have eaten and return what the devil has stolen. I AM your redeemer. I AM your God who teaches you for your benefit, who leads you in the way you should go.

There was no love for you, in the past, because those who were to love you, regretted their sins and couldn’t look on you in love. When they looked at you, they remembered their  failures and hurts. I don’t want you to be like them. I want you to love others through forgiveness and an understanding of the love I have shown you. You are My Redeemed. You are called Cared For, a City Not Deserted. I am doing a new thing now. Do you perceive it? Even now it is springing forth.

Isaiah 43:18,19 Do not call to mind the former things, or ponder things of the past. Behold, I will do something new, now it will spring forth: Will you not be aware of it? I will even make a roadway in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.

Turn your eyes from the things of Earth. I have loosed you from the things that have held you captive. But you must walk away from them. You must come out and be separate. You must put down the things that link you to them. You were made for greater things than the elemental things of the world. The world’s desires are limited and lacking and have always tried to hold you. But I have called you to know Me. In knowing Me you are lifted beyond the things of limit and lack. For nothing is impossible for Me, and I am greater in you than he that is in the world. Today, lift your voice and praise Me for the greater things. The things yet to come to you. For I will accomplish more than you can even ask or imagine, according to My power that is at work within you. ~God

Ezekiel 3:12 Then the Spirit took me up and I heard behind me a voice of a great rushing saying “blessed be the glory of the Lord from his place”.

1 Peter 1:21 Through Jesus you believe in God, who raised Him from the dead and glorified Him, and so your faith and hope are in God.

1 Cor 2:9 “No eye has seen, no ear has heard and no one’s heart has imagined all the things that God has prepared for those who love Him”

O beautiful broken one.  I hold you and gaze at the glow of My glory that I see emanating from the seed of hope within you. This treasure within you is to be seen.  My will for you is Broken Free.  Be still and know. You work so diligently to redo the things I have undone in you. You restore and repair and rebuild, so that you may remain whole and unbroken but this is not yet My Way. My Way is Broken Free. Don’t despise your brokenness. I want you to begin to see the beauty of it instead and to know that in brokenness the seed of hope within you has room to grow.

2 Corinthians 4:6,7 For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of God’s glory in the face of Jesus Christ. Now we have this treasure in clay jars, so that this extraordinary power may be from God and not us.

1 Corinthians 15:13 (ceb) It’s necessary for this rotting body to be clothed with what can’t decay, and for the body that is dying to be clothed in what can’t die.

2 Corinthians 4:16 Therefore we do not give up. Even though our outer person is being destroyed, our inner person is being renewed day by day.

Speak life to your future. The devil speaks death and discouragement and tries to steal your future for his purposes. He uses deception and deceit to produce confusion. You have the breath of life within you, because My Spirit has joined with your spirit. Use this breath to speak My word to your own ears and hear what the Spirit says to His church. As you begin to recognize the messages you have believed of death and discouragement, disease and disaster I want you to call back life, encouragement, health and the promised future I have planned for you. When the thief is caught he is required to pay back double what he has taken. I have told you that you are blessed and to be fruitful and multiply and I watch over My word to see that it comes to pass. ~God

Genesis 1:28 God blessed them and said “be fruitful, multiply and fill the earth and subdue it. Rule the fish of the sea, the birds of the sky, and every creature that crawls on the earth”.

Exodus 22:7 If anyone gives a neighbor silver or goods for safekeeping and they are stolen from the neighbor’s house, the thief, if caught, must pay back double.

Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to five you hope and a future.”
