Lord of All

I am the Lord of all.  I am King of Kings.  Kneel and ascribe glory to My Name.  I Am.

How can you hold onto worry and fear when you belong to Me?

You belong to the Alpha and Omega; the One who is and who will always be.  All creation belongs to Me.  That is who your Father is.  

Kneel and worship.  Fill your heart with humility for I have chosen you to be Mine.  You are mine and mine alone.  I will never leave you nor forsake you.

Will you allow me to remove the shackle of fear? It holds you rooted to this space, but I long to enlarge your space. I long to take you to new heights.  

Imagine, can you even imagine living in freedom?  To be able to walk freely with Me, full of joy and adventure.  Living fully in Me is adventurous and requires a free heart.  Do you not know that I created you to be free and to be loved by Me.

Yes, I created every part of who you are;  your very essence.  Do not fear, but trust in who I created you to be.  Take joy. For I rejoice in My creation.  I have no regret.

The enemy has sought to rob you of this confidence.  But put on My full armor and resist his flaming arrows.  I give you strength and I am your tower of protection.  Live within my presence for I am your tower of safety.

Come into the Holy of Holies.  Come into my presence.  This is where I want you to abide. Here I will feed and nourish you. I will transform you.  Yea, it will be a glorious transformation.  

Set all other things aside.  These things are mere distractions.  Will you stand aside and let me do it?  Don’t you think its time to let me work instead of trying to do it on your own strength?  Sit and rest for you are weary. Watch me work it out.  You will be glad.

Now ascribe the glory that is due My Name.  I am the Lord, your God.

“And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.”  John 14:3

Open the Door and Walk Through

Let your desire be Me. All day-day and night. Set your gaze on Me. Hunger and thirst for My voice. I will lead you through the path I have set for you.

Don’t look back or crave the things that have been. You can’t always see or understand how I am working things out, but trust and know that I am working for your good.

Purify your heart for I am in your midst. My people will be a people pure in heart and speech.

Stand upright in righteousness and watch my favor pour out over you.  
My ways are not your ways. Cling to Me and walk at My side.

Look, a little ways ahead. There is a door. When you get to it, open it and walk through it.

On the other side of the door is a new season I will have you walk. A new season where you will see me work double no triple paced. The call and desire I put in your heart will come to pass.  

You’ve been in a waiting season, but when you walk through that door, the waiting will be over.  

Put on your shoes and your coat and be ready for when I tell you to move. Do not delay, but obey.

There is tremendous joy and blessing in obedience. Know my Word and obey it.
I tell you, you will be great among men because I have chosen it. I see your heart and I am glad. It is for my pleasure that I set you apart.

Now cross the bridge and hike the slope; the door is there. Just a little ways away.
Do not fear or hesitate when you approach the door. But walk through it with rejoicing and gladness.

I am with you always.

“The Lord your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing.”
Zephaniah 3:17 ESV

Come and Feast

The world may be crumbling around you, but stand. You stand tall and proclaim that My banner over you is love.

I prepare a feast for you in the presence of your enemies. Drink, eat and be merry for I am your portion.

I am your protection and I’ve provided a place of refuge. Rest for I will fill your sleep with peace. Your dreams will tell of my favor and faithfulness.

Do not be deceived or swayed by the chaos for I neither slumber nor sleep.

Revel in My splendor. There is power and authority in the praises of my people.
Keep your mind set on Me and seek Me with all your heart. Then I will raise you above the noise and you will hear my voice with clarity.

Do not let your heart grow weary. I will strengthen you with my love. Come. Come and feast. Be filled and ready for the journey ahead.

I am fortifying you and awaking the calling I placed over you. Search your heart for the longing inside is from Me. I will provide all you need. Step out in faith and the rest will fall into line. Be ready for my miraculous and divine provision.  

Oh dance and shout in joy. For I am good and delight in bringing you joy.
Every morning, awake with joyful expectation. Look to the horizon. I will come in glory.

“On this mountain the Lord of hosts will make for all peoples a feast of rich food, a feast of well-aged wine, of rich food full of marrow, of aged wine well refined. And he will swallow up on this mountain the covering that is cast over all peoples, the veil that is spread over all nations. He will swallow up death forever; and the Lord God will wipe away tears from all faces, and the reproach of his people he will take away from all the earth, for the Lord has spoken.”
Isaiah 25:6-8 ESV

My Gleaming Bride

Indeed, I am not done with you yet. I take a shovel and I dig deep. Deep and deeper into the recesses of your very being. I am after sin and everything inside of you that exalts itself against Me.  

I will not abide darkness in my children. You must be pure and white as snow. Do not fret and do not hide from Me.  

I must make you into my gleaming bride. I am not after your outward beauty, but a total transformation of your innermost being.  

Look in the mirror. Do you see what I see? I see My bride. You are cleansed and holy in my sight. I died on that cross and defeated death so you could reign with Me forever.
Do not run away from and do not fear my refining fire. It does not hurt nor will it burn you. You will be strong and pure.

Your soul is full of angst. Pour it out at my feet. Lay at my feet and let Me remove from you what is not of Me.

For too long, you allowed it to fester inside of you. But do you not know that I have come to set the captives free? Free to live in peace and in fellowship with Me. I am Jehova Rapha, the God that heals.  

Will you let Me transform you? Say the word and instantaneously you will be mine forevermore. Truly, I will never leave you.

Here, take my right hand. In it, you will find peace. Here, take my left hand. There you will find contentment.  

Walk the path I have laid out for you. One step and then another as you shed your old self.

Take the worries of the world and cast them aside. STOP! Don’t pick them up. Leave it on the side of the road and walk on. Do you see what lies ahead? Me. Here I am standing in front of you. I am waiting for you. I will never stop pursuing you.

“A bruised reed He will not break, And smoking flax He will not quench, Till He sends forth justice to victory;”
Matthew 12:20 NKJV

Hide With Me

Beloved Daughter, I will wake you in the midnight hour to come and spend time with Me. My mercies are new every morning.  

I may call you away to hide with me for a season to nurture and grow you. I will prepare you for a new season that I’m about to bring into fruition for you.  

You’ll experience greater joy and favor. Look, I’m am pouring favor over you; it’s as thick and sticky and sweet as honey. See, you are drenched in it. As it pours over you, my favor will bless all those around you. I give to so it’s poured out to others.

Do not fret as I hide you away with me. Do not despair that you are alone for a moment. Your strength comes from me and not from others. I need you to look solely to me for your sustenance.  

Your foundation is firm but somewhat lacking. I will fill in all the remaining holes and you will be firmly rooted in me.  Then you will say to this mountain, move! And it will be moved. You will heal the sick, free the slaves in my name and for my glory.  
“Truly I tell you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.” Matthew 18:18

But you must come away with me. Give me your time and your priorities and watch me move in incredible ways that will set you free.  

Do you want more of me? Truly? Then come away with me. You may perceive loss, but I tell you, I will add that plus multiplied sevenfold. There is no loss in me. Come, come away with me.

“He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.””
Psalm 91:1-2 ESV

Burden Free

There was a time when you stood tall with boulders hanging from your shoulders. But I came and cut those ties. You fell because you weren’t used to the lightness. You fell to the ground and weren’t able to stand. You continue to reach for the boulders; they are all you’ve ever known. But I have removed the boulders; they are out of reach. Those boulders will no longer fit. Those boulders are not for you. 

Come, walk with me. I’ll show you a new way. Do you want to live burden free? Then take my hand and come with me. 
How does it feel to be burden free? It may feel strange at first, but you’ll relish the freedom. 

I have come to give you a new life; a life filled to the brim. What do you require? Dream big; ask and you shall receive. 

I have never denied you. Maybe you weren’t ready or your heart was not focused on me. I will not give you what will destroy you. I will give you what will bless you. 
Trust me. Trust in my love and trust in my love for you. 

As you rest in me, I will make you taller and stronger. Look, your feet are clad with running shoes. I’ve given you strength and agility. 

From now on, you will quickly arrive to the places I’ve set before you. There’s no delay. Put on your shoes and move into what I have for you. 

Oh, you will be delighted and awestruck. Remember, stay focused on me and I will give you the desires of your heart.

“Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.””
Matthew 11:28-30 NKJV

A New Calling

I will give you a new spirit, says the Lord. I will give you a new mind and a new heart. What has been is not able to withstand what I have for you.

I have a new calling for you greater than anything that has been before. You’ve worn your shoes well, but look they are worn and tight. It’s time for new shoes in a bigger size. For I have new places and paths for you to travel.

Take down your biggest suitcase, for it will be filled to the brim. Don’t worry, you won’t have to carry anything on your back. I will sustain the weight.

Look to the horizon, I am your ever present help. I am your strong tower. The righteous abide in my presence, and they are protected. Flee from the pursuits of the flesh and worldly passions. Hide yourself in my presence. I will keep you safe.

“Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.”
Romans 12:2 NIV

Living Water

Come, it is raining. Come into the rain and quench your thirsty soul. Come, abide in rivers of living water. 

The world is a teller of lies. It is a deceiver. Examine your heart and uproot anything that has been planted by the world. Those are weeds that will snuff out my goodness in your life. 

You have made plans and created desires of the heart. They are not from me. What I have for you will lead to blessings, joy, and a fruitful and long life. What the world offers is trash and traps. What I freely give you is a treasure born out of love. 

Do not be afraid to walk the path I have laid out for you. Harken back to the first fruits of our love, the passion you had for me. Let me reignite the fire for love and holiness inside your heart. Let it burn bright so that the calling of the world melts away. 

Store up for yourself eternal treasures. The treasures of the world will rot and decay. You already know that my kingdom will always be in opposition to the world’s practices. Set your mind to participate in my economy. I will bless you beyond measure.

Your roots will be firmly established by me. I will produce fruit that will not only bless your family, but others around you as well. Your trunk will be robust and strong. Your branches will be laden with fruit. Others will take refuge in the shade of your tree, and none will go hungry. 

Set aside your worldly plans and endeavor to serve me alone. Hunger after righteousness and holiness. Fill your mind with my word. Sit and listen closely to my voice. I will give you everything you need and so much more. Beloved, abide in me.

“They will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit.””
Jeremiah 17:8 NIV

Exalt Me

Exalt me with all your mind and heart. Exalt me over your emotions, your fears and your worries. Exalt my name on high. Fill your breath with praises. For I come from on high. There is glory trailing me. In my right hand is your salvation and in my left hand is your provision. Raise your hands in surrender and praise me. 

I am you’re jealous God and I will not suffer a divided heart. You belong to me and only me. You desire peace and joy, and it is only found in me. 

Walk straight, and then head left. That is the path I have set for you. Do not worry about the terrain. The ocean is to one side and the desert is ahead. I have placed an oasis at every step you take. 

Truly, I have blessed your feet. Your feet will confidently take you to the place I have prepared for you. Do not be afraid to go forth. Know that I have ordained this journey, and what awaits you are treasures unknown and beautiful to behold. 

Come, come now. I have strengthened your body. There’s only joy in obedience. Trust me, for I love you so. 

Did you think I was done with you? No, never. My hand is upon you. I will fill your mind with wonders, your mouth with my words and your hands with treasures. 

Come, the sheep are waiting. Feed them, protect them, and guide them.

Put on your pants, put on your shirt and put on your shoes. Shake the dust. Apathy has tried to cling to you, but quick shake it off. I have a new vision for you. I will energize your heart, sharpen your vision and hearing.

This shelter is too small. There’s not enough room for all that I have for you. Get up and leave this place. Take nothing with you. I will provide all you need and so much more. Come, come and let us go.

“The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me, because the Lord has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, and provide for those who grieve in Zion— to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the Lord for the display of his splendor.”
Isaiah 61:1-3 NIV

Mountain Tops

Behold, I have saddled the mountains in your name for My sake.  Come, join Me on the mountain tops. 

Look, I have claimed this territory for you, as far as the eye can see and beyond.  The cliffs are rugged and the path is brutal.  But I have made a way for you.  You have hind’s feet to help you leap and bound with strength and ease.  You will reach the mountain top to rest and feast with Me. 

Do not fear, the climb will not destroy you.  Have confidence in the work of My hands.  I have transformed you and renewed you.  Again, trust in the work of My hands.  You will not faint, hunger or thirst. 

See the valley below?  It is lush and green. The work of your hands, I will multiply and multiply it.  You will be amazed and in wonder. 

Years of obedience to My Word have yielded an enduring inheritance.  I saw the sacrifices.  I saw the determination and I saw that you kept walking forward.  Step by step, with every step you took, I rejoiced and determined to bless you.  Now, come my son and enjoy. 

I am well pleased and call you My friend.  Come and let Me show you wonders too great to behold.  It’s in the secret place where I will multiply your understanding.  Walk in wisdom. 

Great are the trials, but you stay hidden in My secret place.  I will show you the path.  My people who are called by My name, who walk in My ways, and who love My word will be untouched.  My hand is over you.  Come, come to My secret place and I will show you the way.

“Does not wisdom cry out,  and understanding lift up her voice?…For whoever finds me finds life, and obtains favor from the Lord; but he who sins against me wrongs his own soul; all those who hate me love death.”  Proverbs 8:1, 35-36
