Rejoice!

This is the day that I have made. A day full of new beginnings. Rejoice! Rejoice I say! 

A little while you have waited. And I declare today is the day for your release. Rejoice! 

Do not be downcast, but lift up your countenance and rejoice. 

You have harbored an idea and a dream in your heart. I placed it there. It is an opportunity. It is a business. 

Today is the day to walk it out and by faith move forward. I have opened the door and now is today. 

I have set aside provision for you. I myself enlarged your tent. Move inside and take up residence. Make yourself comfortable and at ease. I have given you this new territory. 

Stand up straight. I have grown you to new heights. Stand tall. I have given you new stature. Whatever you do and ask will be done in my name. 

Move forward in boldness and confidence. I am with you. There is nowhere you can go where I can’t go. I am with you. My hand of protection covers you. My hand a favor goes with you. Move forward. 

“And the Lord, He is the One who goes before you. He will be with you, He will not leave you nor forsake you; do not fear nor be dismayed.” Deuteronomy‬ ‭31‬:‭8‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

I am coming for My Bride

I alone am God.

Are you preparing for my return?  Will you be one of the five virgins ready and prepared?  

My return is imminent.  Are you living in angst of my return?  Do not be enslaved by the traps of the world.  The enemy’s desire is to ensnare you and to hold you back.  You will be locked out of the bridegroom’s celebration.

Live for me!  Live each and every day for me.  My return is imminent.

I lead you through paths of goodness and streams of purity.  My desire is for a pure and holy bride.  Only I can transform you.  Only I can prepare you for what is to come.  Only through living for me will you be granted passage to the bridegroom’s  feast.

I have told you that I have gone before you to prepare a place for you in my Father’s house.  Be at your business to be ready for me.

Be at peace in me.  Be at peace that I know your needs.  Lay all your requests at my feet and be at peace.

I love you with all my heart.  I desire good things for you.  But you must lay aside your desires; trusting that I am more than able to care for you and to provide for all your needs.  Lay down your flesh; crucify it.  

Choose to live by my Word and by my Spirit.  Choose obedience.  In obeying me, you will find freedom, peace and joy.  Live only for me.

Lo and behold, I am coming.  I am coming for my bride.

“Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Therefore by their fruits you will know them.” Matthew‬ ‭7‬:‭15‬-‭20‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

The Wedding Feast

You are my bride, dressed in white and made pure by my blood. I love you so much that I gave you my last breath on this earth so that we could be together eternally. 

Here on this earth you are being transformed each day. On my potter’s wheel, I molded your heart, mind and soul. As you obey, I am making your heart faithful. Do you long for me as I long for you? 

You are my loving and faithful bride.  Never forget that you belong to me. With my loving and gentle hand, I will lead and care for you. 

Stay faithful and do not stray. The world is a deceiver. The great deceiver longs to snatch you from my embrace. Dear one, do not be deceived. Do not let this deceiver steal your inheritance. He only comes to steal, kill and destroy. 

Trust in me completely and faithfully follow me. I will lead you to paths of righteousness. I will clothe you with gold, rubies and diamonds. I will scent you with myrh . You are my beautiful bride.

Come, the banqueting table is ready. Come, lean on me and feast of my goodness. There is joy, laughing and dancing at the groom’s feast.

“So we make it our goal to please him, whether we are at home in the body or away from it.” ‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭5‬:‭9‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Open Doors

I have given you a spirit of power and might not of fear or timidity. Walk in confidence.  With my spirit, I will lead you. 

Stay here in my presence always. Here in this place, I will reveal mysteries. My plan for you is unfolding. I am not done with you. 

Doors open and doors close. Always walk through the doors I open for you. Stop trying to open doors that I have locked and bolted. There’s nothing there for you. Let go of what is past. There’s nothing there for you. 

Look, can you see? A green meadow washed in sunshine. Do you see the sparkling river running through it? Here’s where you will rest and play in my presence. In me is joy, rest and peace. This is the open door I have for you. I have brought you to my banqueting table. In me there is no lack. You have not because you ask not. Ask and it shall be given to you. 

You are mine and as your father it is my pleasure to care for you. 

“Look at the birds of the air, they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your Heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?” Matthew 6:26

Release; release what you are carrying. That you have been holding so tightly to your chest. Release it and lay it down before me. Leave it here with me. 

I desire for you to walk lightly and humbly before me. Come, walk with me. Take my hand and walk upright. 

Hold my commands tight to your heart. My commands will set you free and you will have life abundantly. Do not stray. Remember to walk in my ways. 

I love you my beloved. You are in my thoughts night and day. There is not a minute that I am not working in your favor. You are the apple of my eye. I am enraptured with you. Come, my child abide in me.

“He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.” Micah‬ ‭6‬:‭8‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Let It Rain

Let it rain! 

I will rain down my presence all over you. You have asked and I am more than willing to let it rain. 

What do you desire? Ask and I will let it rain. 

I will rain down blessings and favor over you. I will rain down justice and mercy. 

Open the floodgates of my provision. Provision for your needs and for so much more. 

Lo and behold, gather larger vessels for what you currently have can by no means hold what I will rain down. 

It is not by your strength nor by your might, but by my love. It is my joy to bless you. It gives me great pleasure to bring you joy. 

Walk in my presence day and night, and you will be transformed. In the morning, sing my praises. In the evening, declare thanksgivings. I will fill your heart with gladness. 

Walk in my ways, I have carved out a path with my hands for you. Do not stray. Even in rocky places, your path is smooth and filled with feasting and drink. You will rejoice because I have made it so. 

Knock and keep knocking. I have answered.

“And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” Philippians‬ ‭4‬:‭19‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Kingdom Inheritance

Do not despise the riches of My goodness.  They are not like the wealth of the world.  My riches are joy, peace, long suffering, humility and freedom.  Being yoked to Me opens an inheritance in my kingdom.

Woe unto you if your eyes are set on the things of this world.   Be transformed by the reading of My Word.  My ways are counter to this world.  

Remember that My path is narrow.  Weary is he who seeks a path apart from Me.  The enemy seeks to devour you.  Keep your feet on My path.

In this time, the light may seem dim and darkness may seem to grow bold and aggressive.  Do not grow weary.  I am ever at work and I am the King.  Nothing happens that I am not aware of.  Nothing done in secret goes unnoticed by Me.  Indeed, justice is at hand.  Put on your warriors mantle and battle for My kingdom on your knees.

Watch and pray.  I am doing a new thing.  I am reordering and setting hearts ablaze.  I am Lord!

“But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty;” I Corinthians‬ ‭1‬:‭27‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Arise and Worship

Your healing comes the moment you arise.

Arise and worship Me with all your heart and soul.

Arise, take up your mat and walk.

I have not left you to your own devices.  I will never leave you nor forsake you.  I will walk with you all the days of your life.  Your days are in the palm of My hand.

I love you with a never ending love.  My love for you knows no bounds.  You are ever in My thoughts.

I do not rest when it comes to you.  I am always at work for your sake.  I do all things for your good.  All things for your good.  

Do not think so lowly of yourself.  You are a prince in My kingdom.  You are held in high esteem.  I hold you up and marvel at the work of My hands.  My heart is glad.

Arise and worship your King.

“And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.” Romans‬ ‭8‬:‭28‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Heavenly Treasures

There is a time and a season for all things.  Behold, I close this door to open another.  Never stay attached to what I am removing.  Be ready to go to the new places I have for you.  Put on your cloak with praise and thanksgiving and gladly walk through the doors I open for you.

Do not set your heart on the things of this world, but rejoice in your heavenly treasures.

You may not see or understand what I am doing, but it will be revealed in due time.  Be about my business and abide in My presence.  Worship with gladness for I am working even when you can’t see it.

Behold!  I will make your heart glad.  A new season is coming before you and you will rejoice.  I long to make you glad.  Can you see that I have always worked to make you glad?  It’s is my hearts desire to make you glad.

Do not fear or be anxious.  You can trust in Me.  I will never let you down.  Your Father in heaven loves you and cherishes you.  My hand of protection is over you.  I set angels around you and no evil thing will ever befall you.  You are My cherished daughter.

Dance, sing, rejoice and be merry.  Blessings and favor follow you every where you go for all the days of your life.

“In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need be, you have been grieved by various trials, that the genuineness of your faith, being much more precious than gold that perishes, though it is tested by fire, may be found to praise, honor, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ, whom having not seen you love. Though now you do not see Him, yet believing, you rejoice with joy inexpressible and full of glory, receiving the end of your faith—the salvation of your souls.” I Peter‬ ‭1‬:‭6‬-‭9‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

My Word

Obedience is your only choice. 

In these times, you will hear this from there and that from other places. So many voices coming from evil doers, confused minds and betrayers. But you need to stick to my Word and obey only what I reveal to you. 

You can only be sure of my voice by knowing my Word. My Word is a lamp into your feet. My Word is peace, joy, comfort, and security. My Word is assurance. My Word is freedom from captivity. My Word is truth and brings clarity. My Word will bring understanding. 

Cleave to my Word. Day and night; hold my Word close to your heart and do not depart from it. 

Do not grow weary in doing good. Goodness will heal many wounds. By your good deeds, you will make me known. 

Do not lose hope. I am a great comforter to the weary and the downtrodden. My kindness will open the door to salvation. 

Will you obey? Even when the world appears to be crashing down on you. Your only choice is obedience. Do not lose heart. 

Today, we may appear as lambs, but a lion will rise up.

“Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.” Romans‬ ‭12‬:‭21‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Trust In Me

Trust in me with all your heart, all your mind and all your strength.

Put away carnal thoughts that lead you away from me and my will for you.

Do you want my best for you? Lean not on your own understanding; that is carnal. Lean on my Holy Spirit to guide you and lead you. I will lead you through glorious paths.

Obey even when you don’t understand. It may not be revealed at the moment, but trust in me.

I hold your life in my hands, not a hair on your head is harmed. Trust in me.

This season of your life is leading to something greater.

The enemy has tried to sift you, but you have not been found wanting. I stand in pride of who you have become.

I have guided you and you have obeyed. Every step we took together, you have held my hand and allowed me to lead you.

Now I have opened the floodgates. You are ready. You have been found capable.

Oh, the glorious plans I have for you will astound you. Do not loose Hope, the door is open. Come, take my hand.

“But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint.” Isaiah‬ ‭40‬:‭31‬ ‭NLT‬‬
