Word 2/21/08

The mountains and the high places shall be your dwelling for your faith/trust in Me is as a breastplate of righteousness to Me. What is between us? What part of your life do you with hold from Me? Your secret time is before My eyes. The cry of your heart is My delight. Hold fast to the peace that is past understanding (human reasoning). Wait on Me. Be anxious for nothing. In your patience you are in My high tower. You will see from afar what is to come. I will lead you to safe places. Am I not your Shepherd? I laid down My life that you may be with Me. Hold fast to truth.

Listen My child, why are you troubled? You know that I am with you. Have I ever not fulfilled My promises to you? I take pleasure in your joy. When I seem far off, know that I am with you. But, your strength, is being tempered (tried), made perfect in patience, made bold in trust, sharpened (prepared) to break down strongholds. In that, when you see this (strongholds arise) come to pass, it (the victory) is already behind you (complete). Now is (here, this time) where the victory was laid. It is I who work within (you).

Surrender to patience, wait on God in perfect peace. Let faith arise, see My hand before you. Speak what is in your heart, for it is I within, I write My words on your heart, (if you stay in the Spirit) they will never pass from before your eyes.

Amen, Dave.

In the midst of a world that is continually moving, running, being anxious for everything, God speaks these words of comfort and peace.

We serve a great God. The only thing that matters is that the life we live is pleasing to Him. May we never forget who He is in us and what He has done for us. May we always give him the honor and praise that He deserves.

God be glorified,
Ryan

There is so much Love in what God is saying here. Even while noone in the world may, He knows our hearts. I want to fall to my knees at just thought of: who am I that God the creator of the world, continues to meet me, to encourage, to hold and to keep me. His promises are true.
Thank you Lord. You are perfect.

Amen to all.

This word is an encouragement and a blessing to me as i'm sure it is to others. Praise God for his everlasting kindnesses to us.
