    I hear the Lord say:

    You matter. You matter to Me.  I created you and I love all that I create. I abide in you and have a purpose and plan for you. Your relationship with Me is the key. Draw closer to Me… Dig deeper – you will discover the treasures I have for you. Set your mind on Christ, the author and finisher of your faith. As I offer joy and peace, embrace it, fill up with it and spread it to others.

    Your future is secure with Me. Your ‘present’ is Me.  Today and tomorrow, our bond is secure. Your life is precious to Me. Recapture joy today – a new day, a new joy, a new revelation of My presence and power.

    How precious to me are your thoughts, O God:
    How vast is the sum of them!
    Psalm 139:17  ESV

    I hear the Lord say:

    Valentine’s Day is a day we celebrate “love” for each other.  I offer a deeper and truer love for you.  Families love each other; parents love their children, spouses love each other, young adults ‘fall’ in love. My love is the original love. My love is unconditional, unwavering and unchanging. You can count on My love in all circumstances, all highs and lows, every day, everywhere.

    My love is the only love that satisfies.  My love settles you and gives you purpose and belonging. My love encourages you, challenges you, corrects you, guides you. My love is never ending; a well that never runs dry.

    When humans fail you or disappoint you, when events upturn you, turn to Me and be assured that My love prevails. My love conquers all. My love is the strong tower you run into.  My love protects and My love defends.  I love My children so much!

    …the earth is full of the steadfast love of the Lord.
    Psalm 33:5  ESV

    I hear the Lord say:

    As you feel warm and cozy under the covers, so I cover you with My spiritual blanket. My comforter is not of down or fabric but is the true Comforter – My Holy Spirit. As a Comforter, He makes you feel safe and secure. You cannot remove My Comforter – He is ever present and ever true. His truths blanket you from lies and doubts. His wrap around love travels with you. Like a supernatural cocoon, Holy Spirit is entwined in your heart to keep you safe in the Father’s arms.  Let this bubble of love remind you each day of the grace and mercy, truth and love, joy and gladness, that infuse the hearts and minds of those who follow Me.  Cares and troubles cease as you rely on the Holy Spirit’s comfort. He is a ‘wash and wear’ product! You are cleansed and then clothed in My righteousness.

    I will greatly rejoice in the Lord; my soul shall exult in my God, for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation; he has covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decks himself like a priest with a beautiful headdress, and as a bride adorns herself with jewels.

    Isaiah 61:10  ESV

    I hear the Lord say:

    No dream is too big for Me.  I cannot be contained, therefore, dreams cannot be too big. Testimonies of miracles wrought reflect that I move in My children’s lives to cause events to happen. My goodness is pervasive.  My goodness is constant.

    Dare to dream…and dream big.

    Never doubt God’s mighty power to work in you and accomplish all this. He will achieve infinitely more than your greatest request, your most unbelievable dream, and exceed your wildest imagination!  He will outdo them all, for his miraculous power constantly energizes you.

    Ephesians 3:20 TPT

    I hear the Lord say:

    I know you desire to become more reliant on Me and more trusting in Me. The way to do this is to continue to spend time with Me – time in Scripture, in prayer, in meditation and worship.  The more time you spend with Me, the better you get to know Me. The more you know Me –  My character, My truth, My promises, My provisions, the more you will trust Me. Recall the verses that speak of My goodness, My power, My wealth and My Compassion.  I am bigger than you comprehend and broader than you realize. The journey to know Me deeper and more intimately is a joy and an adventure. 🙂

    Give me revelation about the meaning of your ways so I can enjoy the reward of following them fully. Give me an understanding heart so that I can passionately know and obey your truth. Guide me into paths that please you, for I take delight in all that you say. 

    Reassure me of your promises, for I am your beloved, your servant who bows before you.

    Psalm 119: 33-35,38    TPT

    I hear the Lord say:

    Light, Life, and Salt –  I bring these to you each day. In the morning, refill your tank with the light of My love, the abundance of a Spirit Filled life, and the flavor of salt.

    My wrap around love will preserve and protect, guide and illuminate; bringing joy and peace to your day.

    Weariness is gone. My abundant joy brings you a lightheartedness in spirit.  Allow your light and life to infect others.  It’s a holy virus!  Let it spread from one to another. Joy is contagious!

    Salt is excellent for seasoning. But if salt becomes tasteless, how can its flavor ever be restored? Your lives, like salt, are to season and preserve. So don’t lose your flavor, and preserve the peace in your union with one another.   Mark 9:50  TPT

    I hear the Lord say:

    My agape love is the love I have for you. Love from the beginning, love throughout your life, love eternal; this is the love I have for you. A boundless love, an endless love, an unconditional love, a consuming love, a jealous love. Love you can’t contain, love you can’t restrain. An exuberant love, a joyous love, a belly-full of love.  A love that outshines the sun, a love that is more powerful than a volcano, a love that is deeper than the ocean, a love that transcends time.  Know deep inside that the love I have for you is so wide and so deep that nothing can separate  us from the love I possess for you. Know that you do nothing to earn or deserve this love.  It is love from above for my beloved child whom I adore.

    That you, being rooted and grounded in love,
    may have strength to comprehend with all the saints
    what is the breadth and length and height and depth,
    and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge,
    that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.       
    Ephesians 3: 17-19   ESV
