I am not silent

I am not silent. Quiet yourself so you can hear me. Listen and learn what I am doing. Ask me and receive the answers.

Divine discontent

For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, love. For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. But if anyone does not have them, he is nearsighted and blind, and has forgotten that he has been cleansed from his past sins. 2 Peter 1:5-9 (NIV) The Father has a word for those of you who are struggling; those who are dissatisfied and even discontent where you are; and for those who want more of Him. It is divine discontent. The seeds are planted and I am stirring up the ground. Yes, you are being tested. I am revealing weaknesses and personal short-comings so you can be an overcomer. I am providing opportunities so that you may be strengthened. I am refinin

Hold onto me

I'm bringing you to a new place. Hold onto me. Along the way you may stumble, but get up. Don't withdraw, but walk with me. Learn intimacy. Enjoy the companionship. I can not fail. Lean closer to me, so you might hear my direction. I'm bringing you to the point where only I matter. There are opportunities each day to pour yourself out. Be emptied of self. There is an invitation to come nearer; to sit in my presense. Hold onto me as you ascend up into my mountain

Sound the alarm

And he said to me, "What do you see?" So I said, "I am looking, and there is a lampstand of solid gold with a bowl on top of it, and on the stand seven lamps with seven pipes to the seven lamps. Two olive trees are by it, one at the right of the bowl and the other at its left." Zechariah 4:2-3 (NKJV) Where are my warriors? Sound the alarm and take your places. Stop waiting for others to take your station. Be found where you know you are called. Arise. Stand firm in my spirit. I will direct you. Yes, you are equipped. Sound the alarm. My people are not to be complacent My glory will fill the earth. My fire will burn from each altar. It shall never be extinguished. Let my truth arise. Speak forth truth. Counter the lies of death the enemy is spreading. Call forth for my mercy and righteousness. Speak out what in prayer what I place in your heart so my will may be done. Take my light into the darkness of your cities. Let it flow forth from my vessels.

Be set free

Be set free. In me you are safe. In me you are complete. I'm your protector. You were created in my image and perfected through my son. My love for you never changes. I am righteous and pure. Draw your purpose from me. It's really quite simple: I love you. Because I love you my blessings and favour flow to you. In my love I place obstacles for you to grow in reliance of me. I point out the hazards so you might avoid them. My love wraps about you like my cloud of glory. You can never disappoint me, because I have no expectations of you. Your abilities come from me. They carry an endless width and breadth. In you I can see the image of my son being formed.
