The Lord is saying: My loves, I Am here and I Am with you, and I want you to be with Me as well. Together we can do amazing things – things that are good, righteous and everlasting. When we walk in unison, there is nothing the enemy can throw at you that can change your course in Me. What we do together will last into eternity and you will be glad. I call each of you today, so do not neglect this tugging of your heart, for it is I calling you to listen. I have a better way than what you have planned for yourself. When you pause and listen to My still, small voice, then you will receive amazing insight into what you are to be doing, and then you would do well to do what I say. Your obedience in this will be the key to a normal day, or to an amazing day where you see strongholds melt away. When you hear Me, don’t hesitate. When you don’t’ hesitate, then mountains of doubt are cast into the sea. And when doubt is removed, then you move forward in great understanding and power from Me, and the world will be better for it.
2 Cor 4:1-18 (ESV) Therefore, having this ministry by the mercy of God, we do not lose heart. 2 But we have renounced disgraceful, underhanded ways. We refuse to practice cunning or to tamper with God's word, but by the open statement of the truth we would commend ourselves to everyone's conscience in the sight of God. 3 And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing. 4 In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. 5 For what we proclaim is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, with ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake. 6 For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. 7 But we have this treasure in jars of clay, to show that the surpassing power belongs to God and not to us. 8 We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; 9 persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed; 10 always carrying in the body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be manifested in our bodies. 11 For we who live are always being given over to death for Jesus' sake, so that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our mortal flesh. 12 So death is at work in us, but life in you. 13 Since we have the same spirit of faith according to what has been written, “I believed, and so I spoke,” we also believe, and so we also speak, 14 knowing that he who raised the Lord Jesus will raise us also with Jesus and bring us with you into his presence. 15 For it is all for your sake, so that as grace extends to more and more people it may increase thanksgiving, to the glory of God. 16 So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. 17 For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, 18 as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal.
