First And Foremost

The Lord is saying:  I Am here, and I Am with you.  I will never leave you, nor will I forsake you.  I hold you in My righteous right hand and you are never far from Me, even though you may feel I Am distant at times.  This distance causes you to long for Me more than you did previously, and this is good.  When you long for Me, this shows how much you rely upon Me to guide you through your days and this pleases Me.  When you stand independently of Me then a stumble is near, for you were never meant to stand alone.  This doesn’t mean that you are weak, but instead you are strong in Me, for in your weakness My power is made strong.  When you are strong in Me, then there are no obstacles that will hinder your movement in any way.  Mountains of doubt are erased when you allow Me to move first and foremost in your life.

 

1 John 1:1-10 (ESV) That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we looked upon and have touched with our hands, concerning the word of life— 2  the life was made manifest, and we have seen it, and testify to it and proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and was made manifest to us— 3  that which we have seen and heard we proclaim also to you, so that you too may have fellowship with us; and indeed our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ. 4  And we are writing these things so that our joy may be complete. 5  This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. 6  If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. 7  But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin. 8  If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9  If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10  If we say we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
