Encouragment

This is the word the Lord spoke to me during prayer on Wednesday: The river flows, it is not hindered in the way. Yet to the blind, to them that believe not, do not see it so. It is too cold they say, it does not refresh my spirit. They call one to another, they say foolish is the man who treads in the water for it is bitter to us, we cannot accept it. Yet to the thirsty, them whom I have drawn, it is life. My waters flow freely, healing is in its midst. Who has tasted that I am good? Enter in all who ears. The depths of this life have pained you, the ways of the world weigh upon your shoulders. I see, I know. From the beginning I have been with you, kept you from you mothers womb. Hear me for my words are unto you. I desire to heal you, to bind up your wounds. Yet you must believe, you mus enter in. Believe not the words of them that speak against you, saying the river is dry and you are blind. Who is blind but them that I have called? Have faith my child, enter my rest. I have set my example before you and I do desire that you should also walk in my ways. I have given you strength yet much more do I have for you. Call upon me, I am near to you. Remember, hold fast to my word, even every word that flows from my mouth. Circumstance does not make you, I do. Believe my word for I love you greatly.

Romans 9
13As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.

14What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid.

15For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.

16So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.

17For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth.

18Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth.

19Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will?

20Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus?

21Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?

Revelation 21
3And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.

4And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.

5And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.

6And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.

7He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.

8But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

To God be all the glory for he is faithful. Your brother in the Lord,

Austin

Amen Austin, eat it up. These words are life. These words are refreshing.

Entering the "Rest", ceasing from our fleshly labors, concerns, fears and doubts; is having faith, is receiving the Holy Spirit, is casting all our cares on God, is dieing to ourselves, is living in the Spirit, is having fruit by the Holy Spirit (the essence of God coming out), is receiving the gifts of the Spirit, is doing Gods will.

Amen, brother.

God is ever faithful, every wonderful, encouraging us always to press in deeper to the truth of who He is to us.

He is our healer, He is our provision. All that we need is in Him.

Thank you Lord for loving us even when we did not know You...You are faithful.

God bless you brothers.
