Stay Grounded In Me

The Lord is saying:  My loves, I Am here, and I Am with you.  As the world moves closer to My righteous judgment, you will see many things that will cause you to fear.  But fear is not of Me.  When you become fearful it is because the enemy of your soul is speaking death into your ears and causing disruption in your lives.  Far too many of you give the enemy of your souls recognition, that he may have his way with you and pull you away from Me.  But this is not the mark of a mature child of Mine, but instead of one who is not yet fully grounded in Me.  The moment you surrender to Me, you are fundamentally changed into My child and are given My Spirit to guide you.  The key is to listen to My still, small voice, that I may guide you in all things.  This takes practice to listen to Me, because the loudness of the enemy can drown out what I speak to your heart.  Even your daily news shouts loudly of a false reality that is far from Me, so learn to filter what you hear through My Word, that you not be distracted from My will and My ways.  Stay grounded in Me, My loves, and fear will be removed.

 

1 Pet 2:1-12 (ESV) So put away all malice and all deceit and hypocrisy and envy and all slander. 2  Like newborn infants, long for the pure spiritual milk, that by it you may grow up into salvation— 3  if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is good. 4  As you come to him, a living stone rejected by men but in the sight of God chosen and precious, 5  you yourselves like living stones are being built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. 6  For it stands in Scripture: “Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone, a cornerstone chosen and precious, and whoever believes in him will not be put to shame.” 7  So the honor is for you who believe, but for those who do not believe, “The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone,” 8  and “A stone of stumbling, and a rock of offense.” They stumble because they disobey the word, as they were destined to do. 9  But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. 10  Once you were not a people, but now you are God's people; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy. 11  Beloved, I urge you as sojourners and exiles to abstain from the passions of the flesh, which wage war against your soul. 12  Keep your conduct among the Gentiles honorable, so that when they speak against you as evildoers, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day of visitation.
