My child, I am a God of peace. I bring My peace to your soul. Even though in this world you experience trials and tribulation, My peace is available and ready to calm your heart. Receive My peace. Live in it. This takes faith and courage and will become your way of life if you allow it. Only you can decide to accept it or reject it. My offer is always there. When you keep your eyes on Me and believe Me, you will have no trouble in experiencing My peace. Take your eyes off of Me and put them on the circumstances, then fear and anxiety will rule your heart. You choose. My peace or the world’s anxiety. It’s up to you. 

It’s time to do some housecleaning. I’m talking about internal housecleaning. Rid yourself of all the junk you carry around. Get rid of past regrets and failures. Don’t hang on to bitterness or unforgiveness. Place all distractions and discouragements at the foot of My cross. Be done with worldly pleasures. I am calling a pure and spotless bride. I desire all of you. Give Me your whole heart. Don’t hold anything back from Me. Do you not know I hold the world in My hands? Do you not know your future is secure in Me? Then die to every selfish desire. Be done with every vain thing. Rise up and take your place in Me. You are My bride. My pure and spotless bride. You are washed clean by the blood of My cross. 

My child, you are anxious about so many things. Only one thing is necessary. Time spent at My feet, and total surrender and devotion to Me. Seek Me with all of your heart. Come, let go of everything, every thought, every concern. I am your all and all. I am your everything. I am all you need. Walk in My presence today My love. Take those thoughts captive. Don’t let distraction be your guide today. I will come in like a flood. I will have victory over this battle in your mind. Stand, resist and take authority over the one who would love to take you captive. You are free in Me. Live in that freedom today. Your Father who paid the price for your freedom.

My child, listen carefully and heed My words. Do not go the way of the world or take the path of the fool. You are destined for a higher calling. Your path has been planned out by Me. Before the foundation of the world, I set up your destiny and calling. Walk in My way for you. Do not choose your own. Do not be distracted or detoured. Keep your eyes focused on Me. I am the Way, the Truth and the LIfe. Stay focused. I will keep you from stumbling. I will make your way clear. Your destiny awaits My child. Take My hand, I will lead you up the mountains and through the valleys. Let Me lead you to the place I have for you. 

Oh My Child, greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world. You are more than a conqueror. You are an overcomer. You can do all things through Christ who gives you strength. So do not fear and do not back down. I am with you. I am your Warrior King. I am your mighty fortress. If I am for you who can stand against you? Lead not a life of fear, but of faith. Faith in Me, your God and Creator of this universe. I will accomplish what I set out to do. Your job is to obey Me and walk in a manner worthy of your calling with which you have been called. My word is sharper than any two-edged sword. Believe it and stand firm in it. This is your destiny, 

Do not the heavens declare My majesty? The stars in the sky, the sun and moon all speak of My wonder. The seasons and mountains, the seas and all they contain. The roar of thunder all tell of My power. Learn to listen with spiritual ears. Learn to see with My eyes into the supernatural. My wonders are incomparable. Oh, I long to show you My glory. I long to share My wonders with you. As a father desires to share the world with his children, I long to share My world with you. As a bridegroom longs for his bride, so I long for you. Come My bride. Come to Me and I will show you My glory. 

Do you not understand? Have I not made it clear to you? It’s Christ in you, the hope of glory. As you move out of the way, I come and fill you. Less of you and more of Me. This is holiness. Me filling you to overflowing. You cannot accomplish this on your own. It’s impossible. Only with Me are all things possible. So move completely and totally out of the way so I may come and fill every bit of you with My Spirit. I desire to work through you to reach the lost and hurting world, but I can’t do this if you are still hanging on to your own will. Turn your will over to Me. My plans are so much greater than you could ever imagine. 

My child, whatever is good and true and uplifting, share that with others. When you come across something that encourages you, pass it along. Gifts are meant to be shared. Make sure your gift is not left unopened or not shared. Open your gift. Enjoy it and pass it along. In this you are accomplishing your calling. Never hoard your gifts. In so doing you lose them. The more you share, the more I will pour out to you. Be willing to give away everything I give you. Make room for more. There is abundance when you willingly share with others. 2 Corinthians 9:6-15

Oh hear My child, My bride, My chosen one. I the Lord will do a new thing. I will show you great and mighty things. I will perform miracles. See and hear My child. Come near and rest in Me. Come closer and dwell in My Presence. For as the branch cannot produce fruit unless it is attached to the vine, so you cannot bear fruit unless you are attached to Me. I produce the fruit. I cause the growth. Stay connected to Me and do not try to do anything in your own strength. This is rest. This is peace. Complete dependence on Me at all times.

My child, listen to Me. In this world there are many choices and distractions. So many things clamoring for your attention. So many things to think about and to try and figure out. Only one thing is important. Come to Me, My child. Come and soak in My Presence. Abide in Me. In this world there is terror and destruction, pestilence and disease. But you My child, abide in My shelter, dwell under My shadow. I am your shield. So many look for answers outside of Me, but you are to remain in Me, steadfast, protected and in My care. You will experience peace that surpasses understanding. The cares of this world will not affect you. People will notice you are not affected by them and will want to know your secret. I am your secret. Lead them to Me, the only One who can bring comfort to this world that is so caught up in crisis and despair. Lead them to Me and I will bring rest to the weary. Psalm 91
