Beloved, with trust born from thankfulness and contentment guarding the gateways of your heart and life, I am moved to intervene in the affairs of your life with My Big Hand. As I do these things you must continue to fondly proclaim who I AM. My hands will lead the way and My footprints shall be

What do you really long for in the hidden places of your heart? I know the secret desires of your heart (Psalms 37:4). Do you find yourself pursuing other things instead of those things planted by Me? Can you hear rumbles of your destiny somewhere deep inside?

I do not want you to fear about those things going on about you. You are my Mighty Warrior. The enemy trembles when you lift up your hands, for he knows the calling and anointing I have placed upon you. Don’t you worry about what others may be saying around you. Some of it is fear, and some of it is jealousy. Just keep your eyes on Me.

Yes, the door of heaven is open to you, over you and you are forever within heaven’s habitation. Keep on coming, keep on receiving without question or doubt. You will not be disappointed.

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.

No matter the trials and sufferings of this life—no matter what you endure, you must enter My courts with thanksgiving for what I did on the Cross. To be redeemed by My blood which enables you to behold Me is more than enough to

Beloved, all the beauty surrounding you was made as a gift, a habitation in which to dwell and experience My splendid love for you. All things were created to provide for the sustaining of life physically and spiritually. In light of this, the circumstances you experience…
