in proportion to your faith

And we have different gifts according to the grace given to us. If the gift is prophecy, that individual must use it in proportion to his faith. Romans 12:6 (NET) You have been given all that you need.Step into what is yours. Walk in the light as I have set the pathway for you. Exercise your measure of faith.  Use it, that it may become more. Speak what I show you. Listen for my direction and you shall receive. Do not neglect the gifts within you. Pursue my love that you may prophesy. Reach the lost in their time of consolation. Encourage all those around you. Let your faith be strengthened and ever-growing. Be filled with my spirit and walk the way before you. Allow your portion to be ever-expanding. Prophesy in proportion to your faith.

never failing

Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.  1 Corinthians 13:8 (NIV)

let us consider

And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds. Hebrews 10:24 (NIV)

…the love I have for you

I have revealed my plans to the prophets. They speak the revelation I have given them. Pray over what they will say, for they have not come to release fear, but to show my ways of redemption and life.   Continue to seek me and the direction I have for you. Walk in love as there are many who yet need to come to my salvation. Allow them to see the face of Jesus in a time of their crises.   It is a period of extremes and changes, yet I prevail. I am in control, directing my plan. There is no need for you to embrace fear or panic. Cling to what you know is true. My love is everlasting. I am yet the healer and deliverer.   Don’t be too busy for me.  I will provide for those I know. There is a table set for those will to come. Sit with me. Allow me to permeate you each day. My Spirit will release healing peace. Spend time daily to hear what I might whisper in your ear.   Learn the love I have for you.

the proportion of faith

Having gifts (faculties, talents, qualities) that differ according to the grace given us, let us use them: [He whose gift is] prophecy, [let him prophesy] according to the proportion of his faith; Romans 12:6 (AMP)

the prepared table

You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my [brimming] cup runs over.  Psalm 23:5 (AMP) We may “say” that God is our provider, but I know that the real answer comes in the time of testing. It is then, we can realize what we profess.  God wishes to provide for us, but not in an inner private room. He wishes to provide publically. It maybe that the food is set in view of our enemy. We must learn to partake of God and what He offers us.

going home…

Then Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit to Galilee, and news of Him went out through all the surrounding region. And He taught in their synagogues, being glorified by all. So He came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up. And as His custom was, He went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and stood up to read.   Luke 4:14-16 (NKJV)

his faithful

The LORD shows his faithful followers the way they should live. They experience his favor; their descendants inherit the land. The LORD’s loyal followers receive his guidance, and he reveals his covenantal demands to them. Psalm 25:12-14 (NET)

you are mine

Fear not for you are mine. Spend time with me. There is more than your natural eyes are seeing. Focus your eyes upon me you will learn to recognize all that I am doing. I am the firm foundation for which you are searching. Build upon me. I will lead in into the pathways of righteousness. Listen for my voice and I will guide you. You will be lead into the ways I've set for you. Loosen your grip on what you are holding. I will replace it with what is eternal. Fear not what the enemy wishes to show you. You are mine. He is attempting to destroy your peace, and erode your joy. He is a liar; he loses. I am raising opportunities for my people to excel, for natural and spiritual promotion to abound. It is temporal, but I am eternal, and you are mine. My spirit is within you.

National Day of Prayer

I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone—for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. This is good, and pleases God our Savior, who wants all men to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth. 1 Timothy 2:1-4, NIV

Words for Richard and Cindy

Richard, Reconsider the plans you have been ruminating for the past few weeks. They are not in alignment with what God wishes for you or those around you. Stick it out. Rely upon God.   Cindy, Father has not forgotten you. He does not punish those who come to him. The plans He has for you remain. He will take you through the needed training.
