Words & Whispers

I hear the Lord say:

Dear one, I hold all things in my hands. You can do all things through my Son abiding in you. My peace I give you. You must take it in order to receive it. Wear my peace like a cloak, a garment of praise. My ‘wrap around’ love will sustain you. Each trial in life works in you for the good. Trials draw you closer to me.

Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial,

for when he has stood the test

he will receive the crown of life,

which God has promised to those who love him.

James 1: 12    ESV

I hear the Lord say:

Let it go. Let it all go. Let go of the shame. Let go of the guilt. Let go of the condemnation. That day is done. You messed up. It’s not the first time and it won’t be the last. You’re human. You’re weak. You’ll forgot to abide and miss the mark. It’s okay. You recognized the sin; you asked the offended person for forgiveness and it was granted willingly. You asked Me for forgiveness and I granted it fully. Now forgive yourself. Meditate on My love and forgiveness, my compassion and mercy. Don’t let a mistake pull you away from my love and companionship. I am still here. I am always here. I am faithful and true. I will never ever forsake you. My capacity to forgive never runs out. Stand up and walk with Me. We have lots to do. To bless others, you must regain your joy and be aware of my holy presence in all circumstances. Keep pursuing, keep knocking, keep trusting.

Ask and it will be given to you;

seek and you will find;

knock and the door will be opened to you.

Matthew 7: 7     NIV

I hear the Lord say:

Dear one, don’t let the past mistakes weigh you down. The past is past. It is over and forgotten. Today is a new day. I rejoice over you. The journey closer to Me is ongoing. There is no ‘end’ or ‘arrival’ until you get to heaven.

Keep walking.            Keep trusting.            Keep holding on to my promises.

Life unfolds day by day. Let today be another day to worship, to praise, to reflect, and to draw nearer. Remember I accompany you wherever you go. Let my light and truth bring you constant joy and continual comfort.

Go – Conquer the day!

God is not human, that He should lie,

not a human being, that he should change His mind.

Does He speak and then not act?

Does He promise and not fulfill?

Numbers 23:19   NIV

I hear the Lord say:

I want you to enjoy each moment – in the present- now, and now, and now. Don’t dwell on the past with its regrets and mistakes. Don’t dwell on the future – wondering, worrying, or planning. Just enjoy today as my beloved daughter. Go about your day – at work and home, with Me by your side, guiding, nudging, reminding you of my abiding presence. Let your countenance reflect the hope and joy within your heart. You have all my blessings at your disposal. Peace, love, joy, delight, compassion, trust ~ and more ~ abiding inside you. You are united with me as a father lovingly creates and cares for his beloved daughter. Let’s enjoy the day together!

Nothing could ever change your royal decrees;

they will last forever!

Holiness is the beauty that fills your house;

you are the one who abides forevermore!

I hear the Lord say:

Listen, listen, listen. Listen to the sound of My spirit hovering over you. My spirit breathes fresh life into your spirit. It brings renewal each morning, equipping you for the day. As air fills your lungs, I offer spiritual oxygen to charge your mind and body with holy energy. Sing My praises. Reflect on My Goodness. Share My love with others. Build on each day, growing stronger in faith, love and compassion.

Remember I call you to be more than a conqueror!

No, in all these things

we are more than conquerors

through Him who loved us.

Romans 8:87  NIV

I hear the Lord say:

I love you with an everlasting love.  There is nothing you can do to separate or fray our love bond. We are a tightly knit cord which is divinely strengthened and woven. It is a cord forged in my blood and sacrifice. It is a cord created before you were born and meant to keep you close to my heart. It is a finely braided cord with gold strands running through it. This beautiful cord is your lifeline to me.  It keeps us connected; it keeps us close; it keeps us united.  Think of the cord as a friendship bracelet. It wraps around your wrist to remind you of my unfailing love.  The cord is also a strong rope to pull you out of a trap or pit. No miry clay can withstand my helping grasp. The cord is strengthened by my Holy Spirit and will help you in your weakness.  You only have to rely on my strength in all circumstances. Then you will see victory and truly be an overcomer!

In my distress, I called to the Lord;

I cried to my God for help.

From his temple He heard my voice;

my cry came before Him, into His ears.

Psalm 18:6  NIV

I hear the Lord say:

Peace I leave you, Peace I give you, not as the world gives but Peace from on high. Peace that covers you like a blanket; Peace that brings confidence in my care; Peace that transcends the cares of the world. Look not on circumstances, trials and daily chores as events to suffer through but as opportunities to drink from my well of Living Water, receiving peace and joy, refreshing your spirit and keeping your heart glad. An attitude of praise will help you complete each task, overcome each trial and be victorious each day.

“Whoever believes in Me, as Scripture has said,

rivers of living water will flow from within them.”

John 7:38   NIV
