    I hear the Lord say:

    As confirmed in my Word, My perfect peace surrounds you. Like a bubble of grace, a blanket of peace, a comforter of rest, you can be relaxed and confident of my tender care for you.  Yes, surrender your mind, will and emotions to Me.  Leave them on the altar. Trust in Me today. Trust in Me tomorrow. Your mind is protected by My helmet of salvation and My shield of faith. All darts and arrows from the enemy are deflected.  You are secure in My strong tower.  No need to fret.  My angels dispatch the demons on your behalf. You come and dine with Me.  Rest, relax, recline in my loving presence.

    This God – His way is perfect; the word of the Lord proves true;
    He is a shield for all those who take refuge in Him. 
    For who is God, but the Lord?
    and who is a rock, except our God?
    This God is my strong refuge…
    2 Samuel 22: 31-33   ESV

    I hear the Lord say:

    My peace I leave you – My peace I give you – not the world’s type of peace but the peace from heaven, which is eternal, rock solid and which transcends human understanding. A peace within a storm, within a trial; peace that cannot be shaken; peace that is a result of your confidence in Me as Your Savior. 

    All things work together for My good.  And My good is your good. My plans for you are for good; life abundant and full of hope. 

    But I have come to give you everything in abundance,
    more than you expect – life in its fullness until you overflow!   John 10:10  TPT

    I hear the Lord say:

    You marvel at the work of My hands – My creation of nature:

    flowers & moss, birds & butterflies,

    fruit trees & sequoias, rivers & oceans, the Grand Canyon & mountains…  The grandness of it, the detail of it, the depths & heights of the earth all reflect My Glory.

    The beauty of nature is a slight glimmer of the beauty of heaven.

    We have streets of gold! 

    The twelve gates are twelve pearls – each gate made of one pearl. And the street of the city was pure gold, clear as crystal.   Revelation 21:21  TPT

    I hear the Lord say:

    Dear one, I delight to surprise you and encourage you. Let Me guide you through Scriptures to hear the words for that day. You will find it nourishing – just what you needed for sustenance and encouragement.

    As in the “Lord’s prayer”, the petition “Give us our daily bread”,  is a reminder to daily seek bread for your soul – Manna from heaven – supernatural sustenance.

    Let it fill your spiritual belly so you are satisfied and energized. My banquet table awaits you.

    “Our Father, dwelling in the heavenly realms, may the glory of your name be the center on which our lives turn. Manifest your kingdom realm, and cause your every purpose to be fulfilled on earth, just as it is fulfilled in heaven. We acknowledge you as our Provider of all we need each day. ”  Matthew 6: 9-11  TPT

    I hear the Lord say:

    Rise up, O man! Gird yourself with My holy armor and greet the day, My daughter! The victory is already yours. Take your sword of the Spirit and belt of truth to tear down all strongholds of fear and doubt. The day is dawning and My joy arises. As the sun warms the earth and awakens creation, so My Holy Spirit quickens your spirit and brings joy alive. Your heart and mind are infused with My holy power and divine Presence.  You are my vessel, my mouthpiece, my ambassador. I have ordained your steps.

    Let the redeemed of the Lord say so!

    God told Abram:
    “Arise, walk through the length and breadth of the land,
    for I will give it to you.” 
    Genesis 13: 17   ESV

    I hear the Lord say:

    I love to bless you! I love to fill your cup to overflowing! I love you with an everlasting love. I love to love you, to lavish My love upon you. I’m happy that you enjoy and accept my love gifts.  My everlasting love has no end – like the cup that runneth over – my Holy Spirit floods your heart and soul and mind to wash out the old and bring in the new. Look for daily signs of renewal and refreshing. Like a bee drawn to flowers for its fragrance and sustenance, so my children are drawn to Me.  My love is sweet, like the honeycomb, flavorful and nourishing, delightful and fun.  A joy in your heart, a lightness in your step, is what I have for you.

    The law of the Lord is perfect, reviving the soul;
    the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple;
    the precepts of the Lord are right,rejoicing the heart;
    the commandment of the Lord is pure; enlightening the eyes;
    the fear of the Lord is clean; enduring forever;
    the rules of the Lord are true, and righteous altogether.
    More to be desired are they than gold, even much fine gold;
    sweeter also than honey and drippings of the honeycomb. 
    Psalm 19:7-10

    I hear the Lord say:

    Peace I leave you, Peace I give you. 

    Not a little peace, but overwhelming peace.

    Peace from heaven that surpasses a human concept of peace.

    Peace that settles the soul, that calms the heart and that soothes the nerves.

    Peace like a river whose water lazily ambles downstream.

    Peace like clouds floating silently by. 

    Peace like a morning mist on a still lake.

    Peace like the sound of a babbling brook.

    Peace like the scent of pine trees in a tranquil forest.

    Peace like the restful repose of a sleeping infant.

    No cares, no worries. All trust, all calm. Embrace this peace.

    ~Selah~

    May the Lord himself, who is our source of peace,
    give you peace at all times and in every way. 
     2 Thessalonians 3:16  GNB
