Words from the Lord during prayer and devotional journaling

I hear the Lord say:

Many look to the Bible as a prescription for social reform. My Word is not a set of ‘do’s’ and ‘don’ts’. My Word is a light into the heart of humankind, to expose sin, to invite repentance and to offer forgiveness and grace. At this turning point, then the hearts of men and women are transformed. This transformation is ongoing. Abiding in Christ is a journey and it requires dedication and perseverance. Holy Spirit offers transforming power to say ‘no’ to the old life and to say ‘yes’ to Jesus. Old mindsets must be broken, new thought patterns must develop. Seeing the love of the Father brings you to a new place of being. Surrendering your agenda and allowing Me to guide you will bring you the sense of purpose you seek. I desire to lavish you with love, bless you with peace, and surround you with grace. I am willing to carry your burdens. Give them all to Me. Walk in the freedom that I offer. Breathe in the fullness of mercy I bestow. Live in the abundance of love that flows from Me to you each day.

We ourselves love now because He loved us first.
I John 4:19  CJB
