For I stand at the door and knock. I’m knocking. Do you hear me? Or are your ears so clogged with worry and fear that you can no longer harken unto my voice?
Has the worries of the world so entrapped your heart that you have become hardened to my leadings? Remember, I come in the wind; a whisper. But if needed, I will come as a roaring lion with a flaming sword. I am ready, but you are not.
Come back to the beginning when you took joy in my glory. In the freshness of your salvation, you basked in joy, vigor, excitement and zeal. Come back to obedience. Come back to loving me and preferring me above all things.
I have all that you need. I would put blinders over your eyes so that you only see me. I would block out the left and the right, leaving only the path forward visible. Come, walk forward out of this pit.
Beloved, spend time with me. That is all that matters. Treasure my word and my voice in your heart.
Put me first and you will see what I will do. I will transform every situation in your life for your good.
Oh taste and see that I am good. I have vineyards of sweet grapes ready to be harvested. The yield will satisfy your very soul.
A great harvest is coming. Nay it is here. Quickly align yourself with my will. Reject and cast away all that ensnares you. I rejoice in a pure heart.
Now he who supplies seed to the farmer and bread to eat will also supply you with seed and multiply it and enlarge the harvest that results from your righteousness. 2 Corinthians 9:10
