About Karen Lemburg

Hi I'm Karen, wife, mother and grandmother. I am on the journey of a more intimate relationship with God. I'm blessed to married to a wonderful husband who is also in pursuit of intimacy with our Lord. We work together in real estate and ministry. We have four children, seven grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.

What Pleases Me Most

What breaks My heart is people being so bogged down by the cares of this world that they don’t step into their calling. They are distracted and anxious and never experience all I have for them. The enemy has laid the trap of distraction and so many people fall into it. Do not be like them. Stay the course. Do not be entangled in the things of this world. Be focused on what I have called you to do. Do it with all your might. Do it unto Me. Rejoice in your calling. Refuse to be fearful or anxious about what lies ahead. I have your future planned out. I know what concerns you. You need not fret, but joyfully go on with what I have for you and you will experience peace and fulfillment. I am looking for people with faith. What  pleases Me more than anything else is seeing someone operating in faith. Faith in Me. 

My Presence

My glory is all around you. Ask Me and I will give you eyes to see. I will show you My glory and will open up the heavens to you when you wait in My presence. I will make Myself know to you as you seek Me with your whole heart. I will come and commune with you, dwell with you and satisfy your every need. I bring My perfect peace. Where I am, there is no fear, no anxiety, no confusion or doubt. Rest in Me. Come and dwell in My presence. Our time together is sweet. I will make you a fragrant aroma of Christ as you linger in My presence. The longer you linger, the more fragrant you become. The less you linger, the stinkier you are. It’s just a fact. 

The Narrow Path

I have given you a spirit of Power, of love and a sound mind. You will walk in My ways. You will stay on My path. You will not turn to the right or the left. You will choose the narrow path. The path that leads to eternal life, so that you may know Me and My son Jesus Christ who I sent. Intimacy, My child, that is what this life is all about. Live in intimacy with Me.

Needs

My child, there is never a time when there are not any more needs. There will always be needs here on earth. This earth is not paradise. It was never meant to be. I created mankind so they would see their need for Me. So never think you will be completely satisfied here. Complete satisfaction and fulfillment is in Me alone. The perfect mate won’t do it. The perfect job won’t do it. Perfect kids won’t do it either. There is no perfection on earth. Only in Me will you feel and know perfect peace, perfect joy and perfect love.

Safe and Secure

I have called you My child. From a young age you were hand picked by Me to be Mine. I need your full attention. I need you to obey Me. For the road ahead is rocky and full of obstacles. But with your hand in Mine, I will lead you through. You will be safe and secure as long as you stay on the path I have chosen for you. There is danger on either side, but do not fear. I have put courage in you. I have anointed you with an unshakable faith. Just stay on the straight and narrow way. For the way is broad that leads to destruction and many are those who enter by it. For the gate is small, and the way is narrow that leads to life and few are those who find it. Choose the narrow way. Choose Me.

My Workmanship

My child, you hear, but will you remember My Words? Will you take to heart what I am telling you? I have given you the ability to remember, but you choose to forget. Decide to remember. Make an effort not to forget My Words. Be intentional and choose to hear and heed what I am saying to you. Do not be afraid of what the future holds. For I hold the future. You are My workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which I prepared beforehand so that you would walk in them. 

Chosen and Dearly Loved

Last night thoughts attacked me, “What do you think you’re doing? Why are you doing this? Who do you think you are?” The accuser was on attack mode. Attack! Attack! Attack!! Well, I KNOW who I am! I am a child of the MOST HIGH GOD! That’s who I am. I’m free! I’m bought with His blood and I am HIS! The evil one has NO authority, No power and No right to me! I AM HIS!! Satan seems to attack at our weakest moments. KNOW WHO YOU ARE AND WHO’S YOU ARE!! You are chosen and dearly loved.

 

True Peace

True peace lies in Me. You may be seeking it in the way you look, or your financial position or your mate, but you will only find it in one place, and that is in Me. I bring true peace. Peace that surpasses all understanding. Peace that allows you to remain calm when the storm rates. Peace that brings hope and peace that lasts. Everything else is a poor substitute and is temporary. I bring peace that endures. 

My Love

My love stretches over the earth. It encompasses every area of your life. Because I love you, I came to earth to dwell among you. I died for you and rose again, conquering death so you might live. Never underestimate the power of My love. The more you allow Me to love through you, the more powerful and effective you will become in bearing much fruit. You will be known as My disciple because of your love. Let all the barriers down. Allow Me full access. I came to set people free. I accomplish this through love. Your Savior who loves you with everlasting love.

Ask

My child, I will give you as much or as little as you ask for. You need only ask, believe and be surrendered to Me. I am willing to pour out My glory in and through you. I am willing to give you everything you need to accomplish what I am asking of you. You just need to be willing, open and ready. Be quick to listen and slow to speak. Listen for My voice, I am speaking. Obey Me and follow My path. My Word will lead you. My voice will guide you. Act on what I am telling you. You will know the truth and the truth will set you free.
