The Lord is saying: I Am here, and I am with you. My loves now is not the time to stray from Me in any way, for the enemy of your soul is looking for a way to destroy your relationship with Me by enticing you to sin. When you succumb to his ways then you open doors into your very heart where he can cause you to stumble. And when you stumble you give the enemy permission to haunt you and hurt your closeness with Me. When you see this in your lives I will warn you gently. You may sense Me touching you and reminding you that I Am with you. When you feel your heart racing as you toy with sin, this is Me warning you to stop and to turn back to Me where you will be sheltered. If you continue, then the enemy has a field day with you, and he thinks he has a victory over this area of your life. But My loves, when you sense these happening, rebuke the enemy and he must flee from you, and then turn to Me for strength. For many of you this is a daily routine, but it is My will that this be a very rare thing for you, for I want you to recognize Me with you continually. I know you are weary, but in your weakness, I Am strong, so turn to Me and I will uphold you in My righteous right hand.
Isa 41:10-20 fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. 11 Behold, all who are incensed against you shall be put to shame and confounded; those who strive against you shall be as nothing and shall perish. 12 You shall seek those who contend with you, but you shall not find them; those who war against you shall be as nothing at all. 13 For I, the LORD your God, hold your right hand; it is I who say to you, “Fear not, I am the one who helps you.” 14 Fear not, you worm Jacob, you men of Israel! I am the one who helps you, declares the LORD; your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel. 15 Behold, I make of you a threshing sledge, new, sharp, and having teeth; you shall thresh the mountains and crush them, and you shall make the hills like chaff; 16 you shall winnow them, and the wind shall carry them away, and the tempest shall scatter them. And you shall rejoice in the LORD; in the Holy One of Israel you shall glory. 17 When the poor and needy seek water, and there is none, and their tongue is parched with thirst, I the LORD will answer them; I the God of Israel will not forsake them. 18 I will open rivers on the bare heights, and fountains in the midst of the valleys. I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water. 19 I will put in the wilderness the cedar, the acacia, the myrtle, and the olive. I will set in the desert the cypress, the plane and the pine together, 20 that they may see and know, may consider and understand together, that the hand of the LORD has done this, the Holy One of Israel has created it.
(1 Pet 5:8; Ps 73:26; 2 Cor 12:9-10; James 4:7-8; 1 Cor 10:13; Eph 6:10-11)
