My breaker anointing, like the mighty crashing waves of the sea, went before both Joseph and David and now it goes before you to make a way where there is no way…to open doors which cannot be shut and close doors that cannot be opened (Revelation 3:8). I am your Way and I am your Way-maker (Isaiah 43:16).

How many dreams do you think David had while tending his sheep? I will let you in on a little secret. He had more dreams than you can count and they all were birthed out of his worship and intimacy with Me. He didn’t wait till he became a king to dream. Dreaming gave way to being a king. He allowed destiny and purpose to unfold a bear and a lion until finally Goliath fell (1 Samuel 17:34-37).

Like a well formed puzzle piece, I have designed and planned you to fit with Me perfectly. There is a niche in My heart you are meant to fit within—meant to connect to. You are an intricate and much needed part of the puzzle of eternity—the completion of the puzzle of the Kingdom. Have you ever seen a puzzle with one piece missing? Many aspects of the revealed picture are clear but the one missing piece keeps it from being complete and the eye is drawn toward the hole—the missing piece.

Though life sometimes seems so very far from the many declarations of love which flow from My heart, I want you to know I still feel the same—still feel the same as I did from the beginning of all time. Nothing has changed and it never will. What you have done or failed to do matters not in reference to My great love for you. You are still the same joy of My heart and always will be. Though circumstances of suffering and travail may have afflicted your soul causing you to act in ways grievous to your heart, I am still very much in love with you.

Lulu loved the beautiful and fine things in life. She was a rich lady who was one among the best in our company. She was a good friend of mine and we always went together in any company activity. I was surprised when she asked me if she could have my plate and I should instead have the other one. Honest, I was caught in an awkward situation and it made me feel bad. I asked what was wrong with the plate she had. She said, “The design will be covered by the cake since it was right in the middle

I, the Lion of Judah, like a lion in the natural, take guard over you and as you learn to ride with Me…abide in Me…as you learn to rest among the reeds and grasses of My presence without fear or anxiety…as you rest in the good and bad times of your life, your steps will be My steps.

Simply put, it is an emphatic statement, affirmation, speech or pronouncement. It is something when done from a spiritual perspective , for maximum benefit, should be done out loud. After all, faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of Christ. When we declare the Word of God and dare to believe what He has said in lieu of what we see, feel or hear faith comes.

Beloved, thankfulness of heart and a grateful attitude has much power to combat the lulling of prosperity and success. Being thankful keeps you from taking credit for your own accomplishments and brings a heart of contentment and peace in the troughs of trying and sometime debilitating circumstances or situations. Not only does thankfulness keep you afloat in stormy weather but it also keeps you from being full of your own self. It enables you to know which side your bread is buttered on.

Those who do not believe I show partiality …those who do not believe the freedom to ascend beyond the natural into the supernatural is for everyone else but they will mount up with eagle’s wings (Acts 10:34; Isaiah 40:31; 1 Corinthians 10:4). When the belief is that someone else will do it or is more qualified and so on, there is a perpetual “someone else” and nothing gets done. Do not go there…do not say it is for someone else…do not use any other thing you most commonly use as an excuse that has negative power and does not magnify the who I say you are or who you have already been called to be.

The heads of grain have come into fullness in this hour…first the blade, then the stalk and the full grain of the ear (Mark 4:28). He who has an (EAR) to hear what I am saying…has an ear and does not harden their heart by wondering “hath God said”….. will rise to lofty heights with an eagle eye of discernment and wisdom. You are My blade, My stalk and My full ear of grain. You are the seed ready to be planted in the hearts of many. You are the water, the fertilizer…you are whatever is necessary…instant in and out of season. It is you that I want…it is you
