Devotion

Place your mind upon Me, And I will teach you of My love. Set your heart upon Me, And I will give Myself to you that you may be satisfied. Give your thoughts to Me, And I will bless the fruit of your mind Lift your hands up to Me, And I will fill them with good things. Hold your tongue from speaking evil And I will place My words of life in your mouth. Dedicate your feet to Me, And I will direct your steps. Speak forth My praises, And I will set you free Offer up your time to Me, And I will bless the work of your hands. Look continually upon Me, And you will awaken in my likeness. (Psalms 17:15) Speak of My Glory for it will fill the Earth. Speak of My Truth, as it will stand forever. Speak of My Mercy for it is abundant. Speak of My Grace for it covers My children. Speak of My Love for love is what I Am. Speak of My Character as it is the foundation of life.

Burden Bearing

  I Am strong on your behalf! When you are weary, you will not faint. When you plow, I will bear the burden. When I reap, you will share the harvest. You do not labor alone as I am at your side. We are yoked together in plan, purpose and design, So the Father’s work may be accomplished. Do not be discouraged by the magnitude of the work. This is My Burden,  My task to accomplish. I have prepared you to participate in what I Am  doing. To labor with Me As one. You are called to bear others burdens,  and lift the oppressed. Yet… I Am your place of shelter and rest. Give everything back to Me, And I in turn will refresh you. Remember,  I Am also your strength. You can do nothing apart from Me. (John 15:5)

Bond of Perfection

Children, Love is the bond of perfection In days past, I have watched you press to know me. You have pressed in to understand My Word. You have pressed into prayer and seeking My Face. You have pressed into hearing My voice, and growing in My gifts. However, when will you press into my love? Do you not understand that love is the very substance of perfection? You may lack in many things and love will cover, But do not be found lacking in love. “…love covers all sins.” (Proverbs 10:12) Love is the essence of all that I Am. You can only know me to the measure that you are willing to love one another. You cannot pick and choose who you will love, For sure, some are more desirable to your flesh than others. However, I do not call you to love by the flesh, but by My Spirit. I speak to you in this way, as you can go no farther in Me. Lest you become as clanging symbols and tinkling brass. (1 Cor 13:1) Search your heart. Are you too busy and consumed with yourself, Or will you allow me to rea...

Chamber of Intimacy 1

Chamber of Intimacy 1~ It is the season, so come! Climb the stairs and enter My chamber. Lay up on my bed of intimacy Where the seeds are planted for fruitfulness. Godly character is not only formed in the crucible of experience, But also, in the ointment of My love. Now old things pass away and all things become new. As your soul is flooded with joy unspeakable. It is a deluge that loosens the bonds. And sweeps away all oppression and depression, Slaying anxiety, the enemy of peace. Where you entered with anger, You leave with impartations of patience, kindness, Goodness, gentleness and self-control. Carrying with you an overflowing life. Gifts to share with the world. Yes, the fruit progressively develops. Line up line, precept upon precept, (Isaiah 28:10) Maturing and ripening according to how much time Is spent in the sunshine of my presence, And the watering of my word. Truly, My Presence affects your entire being, Changing you from glory to glory. Climb ever higher my love, And I...

Awake O Sleeper

Awake O Sleeper~ Hear the drum beat of an army, Marching out to war. Sound the alarm! They are coming by the score. Who will respond in wisdom? Who will bar the door? The enemy’s approach clouds the sunny day. Some refuse to see it’s time to stop the play. Because they despise the waters. Of a quiet flowing stream, The flood of a great rushing water, Sent by heaven’s queen. (Isaiah 13:16) Fingers of the flood catch a sleeping city unaware. Who will awaken in time to escape the snare? Those who know the times like virgins will prepare, But the fate of many wailing and great despair. “Awake O sleeper, For it is light that makes everything visible. Rise from the dead, And Christ will shine on you.”  (Eph 5:14) 

Greater Joy

Greater Joy~ You stand at the threshold of a new day. A time of success, abundance and prosperity. Your season of sorrow and travail will be remembered no more, because of greater glory. I will turn and wipe away every tear.  Now you will begin entering into the new things I have planned for you from the beginning.  Just as you obtained knowledge of God through suffering, so shall you now acquire knowledge of God through blessing and prosperity. All my children must receive both. Now you will know my power and greatness. Don’t look back, but open your arms to receive the good gifts ahead of you. Don’t be afraid to believe. I will not disappoint you.  I have given you a new song, A melody so sweet and clear, if you can sing it. For not many have traveled there. This song was birthed in the depths of fear and despair, As you cried out to Me and found I was there. Your eyes slowly opened, As the false foundation began to shake, And you realized what you trusted in was n...
