Weighted Down

My child, when I return will I find faith on the earth? Will you be on the alert, ready for Me to come back, or will you be weighted down with anxiety about the cares of this world? Cherish every moment. Do not waste time with regrets of the past, and don’t spend all of your time trying to plan your future. Right now, this very moment is the most important time in your life. Make the most of it. Luke 18:8, 21:34-36

True Freedom

My child, true freedom comes when you are willing to lay down everything, surrender all and trust Me completely. Are you ready to do that? Are you ready to take the step of faith and let Me have the reigns of your life? When you do, you will experience the freedom and joy that only I provide. Trust Me. It’s worth it.

Are You Listening?

My child, I am always speaking. Are you listening? My Word is always with you. Are you taking the time to be in it? My Spirit lives in you. Are you aware of My Presence? “Behold, I stand at the door and knock” is not just for unbelievers, but to My church that is neither hot nor cold. He who overcomes, I will grant to him to sit down with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the church.
Revelation 3:20-22

Why Worry?

My child, why do you worry and fret? Have I not told you that I will provide? Believe Me and do not be anxious. I know what you need and I will take care of you. Put your faith in Me. I long to lead you into My provision. Listen to My voice and believe.

Lay It Down

My child, you may plan your way, but I the Lord direct your steps. Be prepared to lay down your own desires. My ways are higher than your ways, and My thoughts higher than yours. Give Me your life.Stand back and watch Me do the impossible. Proverbs 16:9 Isaiah 55:9

Do Not Fear

My child, I am the Lord who goes ahead of you. I will be with you. I will not fail you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed. There is so much fear these days. Do not get caught up in it. Stand firm and watch My hand move mountains. Walk in the peace that surpasses understanding. Put all of your faith in Me. Do not look to the left or right. I am your God and I will be with you. Rest in Me and do not fear.
Deuteronomy 31:8 Philippians 4:7

Your Strength

My child, look to Me for your strength. I will give you everything you need to accomplish what I am calling you to. If you feel out of your league, then you’re hearing correctly from Me. I don’t expect you to do it in your own strength. Let Me accomplish My plans and purposes through you. Lean in to Me and depend on Me. I will pour through you supernaturally.

My Plan Not Yours

If only you were willing to follow My plan, not yours. Lay down your desires, your ego, your life. Surrender all, take up My Cross and follow Me. This life is not about you. It’s about My purposes and My Plan for you. You will never succeed or be fulfilled until you lay it all down get over yourself and follow Me.

And He was saying to them all, “If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself, and take up his cross daily and follow Me. Luke 9:23

Call A Fast

My child, believe Me. Call as fast and call on Me earnestly that each may turn from their wicked ways and from the violence which is in their hands. People’s hearts are hardened. They do not know My ways. They kill the innocent and rage against My godly ones. They do not tolerate My ways and they do not listen to My voice. They are a rebellious lot, stiff necked and angry. Pray for them. I wish none to perish.
Jonah 3:5,8-9 2 Peter 3:9
