You Represent Me

My child, I have told you what to do and I have given you everything you need to do it. Go out with joy. Go out with confidence in Me. Have a joyful and thankful heart. Remove all self-pity, grumbling and complaining. Let it not be found in you. Let your heart overflow with My love, joy, peace and patience. You represent Me. Glorify Me in all you do. This will speak louder than words. This will draw the lost and hurting world.”

All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you, and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age. Matt. 28:20

Walk by My Spirit

My child, there are people I am placing in your path that look to you for leadership. They watch your actions more than listen to your words. Your ways are not only seen by Me, but by those who are around you. Be wise and make My heart glad. Be upright, straightforward and truthful. Keep watch over your words and your actions. Let My Spirit well up and lead you in the everlasting way. Walk by My Spirit and you will not carry out the deeds of the flesh. Galatians 5:16

Stay Focused

My child, I don’t want you to have a divided heart. I want you to focus on Me. Keep your eyes on Me no matter where I take you or what comes up in your life. Stay focused on Me. If you let your circumstances rule you you’ll be miserable. Always come back to the truth and the promises in My word. Let not your heart be troubled or worried. Trust in Me alone. I am all you need.

 

Abundant Life

My child, blessed are you who perseveres under trial; for once you have been approved, you will receive the crown of life which I have provided to those who love Me. James 1:12.

In this life there are many trials, but I am with you. Don’t live a defeated life. Persevere. Make up your mind to endure to the end. And not only endure, but rejoice along the way. See the beauty in the journey. Set your heart to live, to love and to be glad. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that you may have life, and have it abundantly. John 10:10

Lasting Joy

My child, I brought you forth also into a broad place, I rescued you, because I delight in you. You have no need to worry or fret. I delight in you and I will care for you. I love you with an everlasting love. I am your rock, your fortress and your deliverer. Live in the peace that I provide for you. Don’t let anyone or anything steal your peace. The only way to lasting joy is to abide in Me and My word, believe Me and My word and walk by My Spirit according to My word.

Psalm 18:19

Run your Race

I was reading Hebrews 12 this morning and the Lord really spoke to me about verses 1 through 3. This is what I heard:

“My child, run your race. Run with endurance. Run with your eyes fixed on Me. For I give you My strength. I give you My power. I give you My Spirit. I have set My joy before you. My Kingdom is at hand. Look not to the left or the right. Do not grow weary or lose heart, for I am with you. You have a great cloud of witnesses cheering you on. You have everything you need to finish strong. Don’t give up and don’t give in. Endure to the end and take joy in the race I have set before you.

Jesus, the author and perfecter of your faith.”

 

Your Real Home

My child, I will give you strength. I have called you but I will not leave you to your own devices. My works will be accomplished. My plans will be established. I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you should go. I will counsel you with My eye upon you. I will pour out My mercy and lovingkindness. I will lift up your countenance and give you hope. Put your hope in Me alone. Be joyful and sing praises. This is not your home. Remember you are just passing through. Your real home is with Me.

 

Real Faith

My Child, it’s easy to trust Me when everything is going well. Real faith is needed when things are not going as you expected, when the world seems out of control, when your life seems to be falling apart. That’s when real faith is necessary. Don’t let trials and setbacks take you by surprise. They will happen. Life is not always smooth sailing. But your heart and mind can remain in peace if you keep your focus on Me. I am your peace, not your circumstances.

Isaiah 26:3 “You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You because he trusts in You.”

In My Presence

Psalm 84:11 says, “For the Lord God is a sun and shield. The Lord gives grace and glory; No good thing does He withhold from those who walk uprightly.”

The Lord spoke this word to me this morning and I know it’s for someone else besides me.

My Child, I am your shield and strength. My grace is sufficient for you. Come into My courts with praise. Come and find rest in My presence. The cry of your heart has been heard. I know the longing of your soul. In My presence you will find rest. In My presence you will have peace. No good thing will I withhold from those who walk uprightly.

Be blessed today!
