Called You By Name

From prayer last night (5/15/08):

Word
All that I have is yours. All.

Come and walk with Me, My people. Let all the cares of this life fall by the wayside and come draw near to Me. Let Me teach you all that you need to know. Let Me reveal the mysteries of the gospel to you. Come that I may have My way in you this day. You are mine, for I have called you by name. I will not hold back, there is nothing I would keep from you. Who will come higher this day? Who will believe My words that faith may rise up within you and that I may account it unto you for righteousness.

Wait on Me. Wait for Me to open the door that you may walk through it. Know that the day comes quickly when I will send you out. For there are many who desire to know truth, many who love Me but have been held back. I tell you, you will go forth by My Spirit that liberty may be given to the captives and that those who have been held back will be made strong. I speak this to you that nothing come upon you unaware, but I say wait on Me. I will send you by My Spirit in due season. Continue to draw close to Me daily that I may add all things unto you.

Who will allow Me to write My words upon their heart? Who will let Me put My words in their mouth that they may speak only as My Spirit gives utterance? I tell you, be wise in all that I give you and trust in Me that doubt and fear would have no place. You have need that no man teach you for I have given you My Spirit that you may be led into all truth. Be confident in all that I speak to you, all that I show you. It is not of yourself for it is given by My Spirit to those who seek Me and it is received by faith.

All that I have put before you to do is for the glory of My name. For though some things seem to be of no importance, I tell you know that all is for your edification that you may learn to die to yourself and trust only in the leading of My Spirit. I am with you always, I never leave you or forsake you. Ask for wisdom and understanding for I desire that you hear My voice always.

The Lord stirred me in some things that He showed me a while back regarding us being sent out by His Spirit and about how He will send us to those who love Him and desire to walk according to the leading of His Spirit. He gave me this scripture as a confirmation:

Acts 11:11-16
11And, behold, immediately there were three men already come unto the house where I was, sent from Caesarea unto me. 12And the Spirit bade me go with them, nothing doubting. Moreover these six brethren accompanied me, and we entered into the man's house: 13And he shewed us how he had seen an angel in his house, which stood and said unto him, Send men to Joppa, and call for Simon, whose surname is Peter; 14Who shall tell thee words, whereby thou and all thy house shall be saved. 15And as I began to speak, the Holy Ghost fell on them, as on us at the beginning. 16Then remembered I the word of the Lord, how that he said, John indeed baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost.

Now is the time that we must serve God in Spirit and in truth. God will not wink at things as in times past. If any desire to be set free, if any desire to receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit, go unto God and ask of Him. Let no man keep you from entering in to the fullness of what God has called you to. The time is short and we must all work out our own salvation with fear and trembling.

With love in Him,
Ryan

True word Ryan.
Waiting on God to direct our path is faith. Trusting that He will. While Paul was called, it was many years before he was sent. Most of what we see of "Christianity" is people rushing ahead of God, excited to be sure. Prepared to go? Not so much, especially being lead forth in peace, being anxious for most everything, they are snared by pride into works of the flesh. Knowing the difference is the difference.
