Those who have the courage to follow Me must also have the courage to stay where I place them, for the length of time I would have them to stay there. This is to receive the instruction, message, teaching and growth that I have intended for them to receive.
My Word is truth, but if it is mixed with logic, it doesn’t always retain it’s full meaning. Logic is not required when “faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen.” (Heb. 11:1) Logic will pull you down to the flesh, when I would have you to soar in the Spirit.
My Word is strength, power, deliverance and truth. My Word is stable in times of chaos and unrest. My Word is your rock on which I would have you to stand. As you all know a rock is higher than the earth. When you stand on it you are raised above the level of those of the earth. Stand on My Word and when you see those around you leaning, you will remain ramrod straight and will not falter. (see Ps. 61:2)
- Strength and courage are required to follow Me, but the road will be easy if you do not try to depend upon yourself as your guide, rather, rely on My instruction alone to guide you.
I have never stopped loving you–ever! Though there are times when it feels to you as though I were absent and had. But, as My Word says, “I will never leave you nor forsake you,” (Heb. 13:5) and when at these times you feel as if I had left, I would have you to return to My Word and remind yourself of My promises.
- I give you times of weakness so that you may become strong through your weakness. When you are weak, then I am proved strong. (see II Cor. 12:9)
My children, cling to Me and I will cling to you; as a mother embraces her child with all the love, protection and fierce joy she has in her heart. For a mother loves her child far less than I love you.
