Words & Whispers

I hear the Lord say:

The world may appear in chaos but it is not lost. I am the light and My children are the sons and daughters of the light. (John 12:36).

Light dispels darkness. I have overcome it. Pray for workers to be sent into the harvest.

Be a light bearer every day.  Shine the light of love on all you meet.

“While you have the light,

put your trust in the light,

that you may become people of light.”

John 12:36  CJB

I hear the Lord say:

To all who seek Me with a sincere heart, who open the door when I knock, I will come in and reveal Myself to them.

You have opened the door to life and truth.  But not all is revealed. There is always more. You desire greater intimacy. This involves purpose and pursuit.  Pursue Me with purposeful intent. I will fulfill the desires of your heart.

Your desire is to abide in Me.  I desire this for us.  As you abide, greater trust will grow. As it grows in strength, it will not be shaken by adverse circumstances. You will see events as opportunities to show My glory.

Peace and calm will rule and reign in your heart. My steadfast love will ground you and strengthen you.

But this I call to mind, and therefore I have hope:

The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases;

his mercies never come to an end;

they are new every morning;

great is your faithfulness.

I hear the Lord say:

As morning dew glistens on the lawn, as morning sunbeams shine through the trees, as birds flock to your yard, see all that I have for you. The joy of My creation is meant to bring you joy as well. Let Me gladden your heart with morning sights and sounds. Let the sound of bird calls remind you to seek Me in the morning and throughout the day. As I care for the birds, I more intensely care for you.

Satisfy us in the morning with your steadfast love,

that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.

I hear the Lord say:

Follow Me –  all you have to do is follow Me.  You don’t have to come up with any plan. I have the plans laid out already. Recall Jeremiah 29:11 ( I know the plans I have in mind for you, declares the Lord, they are plans for peace, not disaster, to give you a future filled with hope).

Remember to take one day at a time. Today has enough troubles. Leave tomorrow in My capable hands. Be content. Discover new things about Me as you read Scripture, worship and reflect.  This new day will be a confirmation of My love for you.

Again Jesus spoke to them, saying,

“I am the light of the world.

Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness,

but will have the light of life.”

John 8:12   ESV

I hear the Lord say:

I am mighty to save – mighty in power, mighty in grace, mighty in compassion, mighty in salvation. You allowed the enemy to taunt you and fill your mind with lies. I do care about you and your family. I care more than you do. I will restore the years the locusts have eaten. I am in the business of restoration.

Sing for joy, O heavens, and exult, O earth;

break forth, O mountains, into singing!

For the Lord has comforted his people and 

will have compassion on his afflicted.

Isaiah 49:13  ESV

I hear the Lord say:

I am beside you. I see and understand your mental fatigue. This is an opportunity to tap into My Strength.  You see that you are weak and need supernatural strength. It’s yours for the asking.

Let it soak in, like a sponge.  At first, dry, but now wet and dripping.  I fill you with peace and joy.  Let Me send Holy rain to refresh and encourage you.

“My grace is always more than enough for you,

and my power finds its full expression through your weakness.” 

…For my weakness becomes a portal to God’s power.
