The Lord is saying: My loves, I Am here, and I Am with you, and I will be with you for eternity. There will never be a time when we are apart, but there will be times when you doubt that I Am with you because of the circumstances of the day. There are times when I seek to expand your faith and trust in Me by letting you to yourselves for moments to see how you will react. It is My desire for you to press into Me at all times, but there will be times when you will seek to take control and do a thing in your own power. I do not chastise you about this, just that you recognize that the flesh is seeking to control your circumstances instead of your Spirit that is in union with Me. Most of the time, when you are in this mindset, you will quickly realize the futility of it all and return back to Me, that I help you as should be. But when you lack faith in certain areas of your heart, it is there that I intend to build your faith and allow you to run your course until that area is exposed and committed to Me. This is wisdom, My loves: Run from your desire to control and render this to Me, for My ways are perfection.
1 Cor 12:1-11 (ESV) Now concerning spiritual gifts, brothers, I do not want you to be uninformed. 2 You know that when you were pagans you were led astray to mute idols, however you were led. 3 Therefore I want you to understand that no one speaking in the Spirit of God ever says “Jesus is accursed!” and no one can say “Jesus is Lord” except in the Holy Spirit. 4 Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit; 5 and there are varieties of service, but the same Lord; 6 and there are varieties of activities, but it is the same God who empowers them all in everyone. 7 To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good. 8 For to one is given through the Spirit the utterance of wisdom, and to another the utterance of knowledge according to the same Spirit, 9 to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit, 10 to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another the ability to distinguish between spirits, to another various kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues. 11 All these are empowered by one and the same Spirit, who apportions to each one individually as he wills.
