I Am With You Today

The Lord is saying:  My children, I Am with you!  I Am always with you, but many of you forget this promise that I will never leave you, nor forsake you.  Instead, too many of you forget about Me, sometime for days on end, while I wait for you to notice the things I do for you continually.  If you would only realize how much this hurts Me, your Creator!  When we made man in our image, we made you with deep feelings of love that can become hurt when you are not recognized.  So, yes, I feel hurt when I Am right here, and you fail to recognize this.  Now, My love will never lead me to have grudges or any such thing, for I Am patient with everyone, but My love is first pure and unadulterated, so when you fail to recognize Me in your presence, this leads me to miss our time together.  I Am relational and know each and every thought that you have, and I want to help you through your many challenges, but I can only help when you call upon Me. 

Love compels each of you, even in this fallen state, to seek time with those you love – to be together in each other’s presence.  The love a man has for his wife, and the wife has for her husband, and parents towards their children, and children to their parents, are a picture of My love for each of you.  Even if you have no loves in your lives right now, I want to be the love of your life!  I want to be the One you turn to in your time of need.  I want to hold you gently in the palm of My hand, that you may feel secure and not lost in the darkness trying to find your own way.  I want to be the Light that illuminates your path, that you may find your way to Me in this life, that leads into My presence for eternity! 

So do not think that I Am not here for you.  I Am!  And I long for your gaze, for your attention, and for you to come to Me and let Me be your God that loves you abundantly.  Those who are in Me are those who are most content, no matter their circumstances.  I Am with you today.

 

Jeremiah 11:1-8   The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying, 2  Hear ye the words of this covenant, and speak unto the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem; 3  And say thou unto them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel; Cursed be the man that obeyeth not the words of this covenant, 4  Which I commanded your fathers in the day that I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, from the iron furnace, saying, Obey my voice, and do them, according to all which I command you: so shall ye be my people, and I will be your God: 5  That I may perform the oath which I have sworn unto your fathers, to give them a land flowing with milk and honey, as it is this day. Then answered I, and said, So be it, O LORD. 6  Then the LORD said unto me, Proclaim all these words in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying, Hear ye the words of this covenant, and do them. 7  For I earnestly protested unto your fathers in the day that I brought them up out of the land of Egypt, even unto this day, rising early and protesting, saying, Obey my voice. 8  Yet they obeyed not, nor inclined their ear, but walked every one in the imagination of their evil heart: therefore I will bring upon them all the words of this covenant, which I commanded them to do; but they did them not. 

Stop Striving

The Lord is saying: Come to Me all who are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.  Too many of you carry burdens you were not intended to carry.  You strive as if hitting the wind, and I wish that you would quiet yourselves in My presence and put aside your striving and let Me be God to you.  No amount of striving on your part can add to what My son, Jesus, did on the Cross.  He paved the way into My presence – everything else is religion, which is man striving to get to Me.  While I say, Jesus already opened that door.  All you must do is walk through Him into My presence. 

Once you pass the threshold of the Open Door by surrendering your lives to Me, I then can work and move in your life and in your heart.  Hearts of stone are then replaced by hearts of flesh that are moldable for My purposes.  Once you surrender, My Spirit begins to remove all the chaff from your lives; all the wood, hay and stubble of self-righteousness and self-works, and you are then given gold, silver and precious stones that are the works that I lay before you that reach into eternity.  So many people think they need to do this or do that, but My son said, “It is finished!”. 

Stop striving and let My Spirit envelope you.  Let go and let God.  Even when things look bleak, I have never once let you out of the palm of My hand.  I Am trustworthy and you can trust Me to lead you in righteousness in all things.  So, stop striving, and surrender it all to Me.

 

Gal 3:1-14  O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you? 2  This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? 3  Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh? 4  Have ye suffered so many things in vain? if it be yet in vain. 5  He therefore that ministereth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, doeth he it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? 6  Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness. 7  Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham. 8  And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed. 9  So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham. 10  For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them. 11  But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith. 12  And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them. 13  Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: 14  That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. 

Learn From Him

The Lord is saying:   To those who are listening, I commend you to be obedient to the end, for those who walk the path that I have laid before them will soon walk on golden streets, illuminated by My glory.  I want to encourage you today, for the time has now come for each of you to stand in your calling that I have placed on your lives.  You can see around you and know that I Am near.  You listen and you can hear My still, small voice speaking to you words of love and mysteries.  Do not grow weary at these things, but stand firmly upon the Rock of your salvation, and see that I Am is here in your very presence! 

I have great things planned for those in My care.  You will now see your prayers answered as I have heard every petition you have brought to Me over many years.  I intend to answer every prayer you have lifted up to Me and you will see it and be glad.  The time of answered prayers has come, My loves. 

Do not let the enemy rob you of this joy, for he intends to remove your joy and leave you frustrated and to begin doubting My promises to you, just as he did with Eve the Garden.  Do not listen to him any longer, but in My name, cast him far from you, for the only power he has is what you give to him.

Rejoice, for I have sent legions of angels to minister to My children, and I urge you to cry out to Me that I may send ministering angels to your midst to help you in this time to resist the devil that he may flee from you.  You have been given the great gift of My Holy Spirit to help you.  Learn from Him.

 

Gal 3:20:29 (KJV) Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one. 21  Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law. 22  But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe. 23  But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed. 24  Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. 25  But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster. 26  For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. 27  For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28  There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. 29  And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise. 

The Conquering King

The Lord is saying:  Come to Me, My children, for the time is short indeed.  Many think there is time to get right with Me, but you believe amiss, as the time is quickly coming to a close.  My prophets are being fulfilled in your presence and yet, you don’t see with your eyes, nor hear with your ears.  I would that you would be alert in this day so that I could direct you through what is now here, but too many believe the lie that My coming is far off. 

The appointed time is quickly coming, and if you don’t turn towards me now, you will not fair well in what is coming.  My Word will be fulfilled – every jot and tittle – so this is My cry to you, to turn from the broad path that leads to destruction and repent, for the Kingdom of God is here! 

When My Son, Jesus, was sent to the earth the first time, He was born as a man, of a virgin, and was laid in a manger.  His purpose in coming was to reconcile that which was broken, which was the chasm that had opened between sinful man and a holy God.  Jesus Christ willingly laid down His life as the perfect Lamb, sacrificed for the sin of all mankind.  That chasm, for those who turn to Me, has been removed and you now have direct access to Me. 

But when Jesus comes again very soon, He comes as the conquering King, which every knee will bow and every tongue confess that He is the Savior, and that He now comes to take that which is His – His Bride. 

Press into Me now before its too late.  The closer you are to Me in this time, the easier your path will be when the chaos erupts, for it surely comes. 

 

1 Cor 15: 50-58 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. 51  Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 52  In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. 53  For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. 54  So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. 55  O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? 6  The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. 57  But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 58  Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord. 

Many Will See Me in You

My children, My love for you is absolute.  If you would only turn to Me in this time you would find me caring for your every need.  Everything is culminating now for My children who seek My face, as they will find that I Am with you always.  I will never leave you nor forsake you.  Though the world does everything to pull you away from Me, it is up to you to decide who you will follow; Me, or self?  Self is led by the world, while those who rely on Me will be abundantly blessed as I have been freed to lead you in all things righteous.

When you feel the world pressing in on all sides, seek Me and I will come to you in tangible ways to help you.  When you are feeling depressed, I will be your joy, and you will know I Am with you.  When you feel unloved, I will shower you with My perfect love.  My perfect love casts out all fear, all doubt and all unrest in your souls. 

So, come to Me even now, right where you are, and I will hear, and I will move on your behalf.  For, although I have been quite for many for some time, this was done so others could also be prepared for My next move.  When everything that I have planned comes together at an appointed time, then all will move forward, and you will be exceedingly joyful.  Patience is being rewarded.  Your patience will now be moved to action, and many will see Me in you.  Rejoice!

 

1 Cor 12:12-31 (KJV) For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ. 13  For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit. 14  For the body is not one member, but many. 15  If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body? 16  And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body? 17  If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling? 18  But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him. 19  And if they were all one member, where were the body? 20  But now are they many members, yet but one body. 21  And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of thee: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you. 22  Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary: 23  And those members of the body, which we think to be less honourable, upon these we bestow more abundant honour; and our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness. 24  For our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to that part which lacked: 25  That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another. 26  And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it. 27  Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular. 28  And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues. 29  Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all workers of miracles? 30  Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret? 31  But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you a more excellent way. 

Rest Is What I Want For You

My children, I wish that you would meet Me early each morning, before the world stirs from its slumber.  It is at this early hour that we can commune in the quietness that surrounds you at that time.  If you would learn this discipline your lives would be imminently better as everything else will flow from our time together.  Mornings are when My son, Jesus, and I spent the best time together when He walked the earth before His sacrifice for mankind.  It was in these morning times that I was able to help Him prepare for what was to come for Him.  The same can happen for you, as you spend your time with Me, allowing Me to prepare you for what awaits you on your path. 

No person in the earth was meant to traverse this life without My direction.  As you walk close with Me I Am able to keep you from many errors that can disrupt your lives.  Come to Me each morning and I will show you what you need, and then I will help you through all that is before you.

Quietness with Me in the mornings will bring peace in that day.  Nothing will overpower you if you have filled your vessel with the Living Waters that I provide.  It is this Living Water that will be with you through the storms of life, as these come without end while you are in the earth.  This life will then be followed by rest in Me.  Rest is what I want for you.

 

Mat 6:25-34  Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? 26  Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they? 27  Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature? 28  And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: 29  And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 30  Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? 31  Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? 32  (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. 33  But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. 34  Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof. 

Don’t Miss It

My children, I have much to say if you would only listen.  If you would quiet ourselves from the deafening roar of this life on earth, you would learn to hear My still, small voice.  Though it is small and nearly quiet, it is not without My power.  This is the same voice that breathed the universe into existence, so do not think or be deceived that it has no power.  Those who learn to quiet themselves in My presence are blessed, for you speak to your Creator, and not some distant thing, for I Am closer to you than a brother. 

As you rise every morning and begin your day, I speak into your hearts, but too many miss it.  You miss it because as soon as you awaken you already begin planning your day in your own strength.  If you would but still yourselves at that very moment that you wake and seek My face, then we would commune together, and I could guide you on your path for the day. 

Those who pause and listen will learn to have peace as you wait upon Me in this brief moment before your day begins.  Take the time to listen to My still, small voice, for I Am never quiet.  I speak continually for anyone who seeks Me throughout your day, for I will surely answer.  But if you don’t take this time with Me in the morning, your day will be lost to the business that is life.

Learn to discipline yourselves upon waking for the new day ahead and we can begin the day together.  Don’t miss it.

 

Rom 14:5-9  One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind. 6  He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks. 7  For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself. 8  For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's. 9  For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living.
