There is no God greater than I. I created the heavens and the earth. I hung each star in the sky. I placed each tiny tendril of hair on your head, and above each eye.

You, like the universe, are My own creation. I made you to be just who you are. I fill you with a sense of joy and wonderment as you gaze upon the beauty of My creation.

You were born to love and praise Me, to honor and serve Me, yet you are filled with fear.  

It’s not about this life, loved one. It is about an eternal life with Me, your Father, your El Shaddai.

I do not humble Myself for anything, yet I gave My precious Son to die on the cross for you to be able to be one with Me. I reach out to you constantly, guiding and protecting you so that you don’t fall into the trap of the evil one.

He will go down in the fiery pit one day, beloved,  and all the earth will sing in it’s new freedom.  And the child I kept with Me shall sit at My feet and sing My praise. Such joy will fill the heavens!

What a glorious day that will be! Hang on, dear one.  

That is what this life is about.

Psalms 8:3-4, 9, New King James Version:

“When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, The moon and the stars, which You have ordained, What is man that You are mindful of him, And the son of man that You visit him? O Lord, our Lord, How excellent is Your name in all the earth!”

Put your hand in the hand of the One Who parted the waters, Who created the seas and the fish that teem in them. Put your hand in the hand of the One Who laughed, Who cried, and Who lived on this earth.

Put your hand in the hand of the One Who gave His Son to die for you on the cross, Whose blood poured out on the ground, cleansing the permanent title of sin on earth, enabling you to have this relationship with Me.

Put your hand in the hand of the One Whose love for you was before time began, Who ultimately formed every inch of you.

Oh, beloved one, do not let time pass you by. I am waiting, with My hand outstretched. Come with Me and let Me take you to a place of rest and peace, where you have never been before.

Our time together is precious, much more than you realize.  

Do not delay.  Only love awaits.

Galatians 2:20, New King James Version:

“I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.”

March 23

Fling yourself at the feet of the mercy seat. I know your situation. You must remember this is all about timing….My timing.

Yes, I know, and I care, and it causes Me to hurt.

Listen to the still, small Voice. I will guide and direct you. Through Me you will know the way.

I am all merciful and all powerful. Come before Me now and test and see that I am good.

You are My beloved child in whom I have placed a ministry. It may be different than what you thought it was going to be, but My yoke is easy and My burden is light.  

Come, take My hand and walk with Me. Let Me tell you the stories of men and women I raised up, just like you.

I love you, dear one. I am proud of how far you have come.  

Don’t let go of My hand.  

Cry for mercy. I will be there.

Matthew 11:29-30, New King James Version:

“Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”

I want you to start this day with joy, dear one, with courage and joy. Rise up with purpose for the mission I have given you. Everything will unfold before you as you go, step by step.

Look into My face. Do you see anything there that will cause you to doubt My presence and guidance? You will find only love encouraging you to reach our goals together.

Perhaps that goal is as simple as getting through this day. Don’t look away. Keep your eyes focused on Me, the Author and Perfecter of your faith. The love you see will fill every pore of your body, enveloping you with calm and peace amid the storm.

I will never leave you or forsake you.

So whether it is getting through today, or climbing great mountains to shout out My love through the valleys, I will be there to help and encourage you.

You are Mine and I am yours, now and forever more.

Deuteronomy 31:6, New King James Version:

“Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the Lord your God, He is the One who goes with youI. He will not leave you nor forsake you.””

The Bible is a storehouse of everything you need to know on this earth. Don’t be mistaken by thinking that I don’t want you to learn anything else. It is important, too, but as a guidance for your life on earth and for eternal life, there is none other.  

It is the story of Me.

It’s pages are rich, and full of the travails of My people for thousands of years, ending with the magnificent story of salvation played out through Jesus’ life and ministry, death and resurrection.

Open this most important book, dear one. Let it’s pages teach you. Through it I can talk directly to you.

Just start reading. I will guide you.

Psalms 119:130-131, New King James Version:

“The entrance of Your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple. I opened my mouth and panted, for I longed for Your commandments.”

Yes, I am with you, always and forever. There is not one time where you were left alone to face earthly battles on your own. I promised you early on that I would never leave you or forsake you and I have kept My promise.

I love to be near you, dear one. I love to watch you as you rise in the morning, start the day and then all throughout the day as you face many challenges head on. I am the doting Father who cannot get too much of His beloved child.

How can you really know and sense that? By communion with Me. Daily minute-by-minute communion with Me.  

Let Me enter your soul every morning and adorn you with love and protection, and the armor to protect you from all evil.  

Stand tall, My soldier. We have much to do.

Psalms 55:22, New King James Version:

“Cast your burden on the Lord, and He shall sustain you; He shall never permit the righteous to be moved.”

Oh, the mysteries of this life! Mysteries so deep and rich only I can unfold them for you. The “intelligent” and renowned scientists of your generation seek relentlessly for the answer but without Me, there is no answer.

I am at the beginning, middle and end of every scientific equation ever presented. They think they are so smart, they have it all figured out……or not!

They are unaware of the simplicity of your beautiful faith, and the relationship we have because of it, allowing you to trust Me to receive the magnificent gifts I have given you. The scientists want to discount My gifts of love, and figure out how time and evolution created things on their own.

You have accepted the wonderful, miraculous bodies and earth I made, My precious one. One day you will see how it all unfolded so many years ago, and how it is still unfolding every day in the beauty of new life.

It doesn’t take mighty, brilliant minds. It takes simple faith in Me.

Isaiah 45:12-13, New King James Version:

“I have made the earth, and created man on it. I—My hands—stretched out the heavens, and all their host I have commanded. I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will direct all his ways”

Are you listening, dear one? Can you hear My voice through all the noise and distraction of your daily life? 

You are confused, and wonder what you should do. I have been trying to tell you but you allow the world to get in between My direct messages to you.

Go to your quiet place and lay your open heart before Me. Empty your soul to hear the still, small voice. The answer is unfolding before you. The help you need, the answers you need, are all right there.

Reach out and grab your future. With Me, your future will be bright. Keep looking upward with faith.  

Do not look down or you will stumble and fall. With your eyes kept steadily on Me, you will never lose your way. I have the help and guidance you need for your journey, for our journey together.

Grab My hand and take your first step. I will help you take the second.

Psalms 48:14, New King James Version:

“For this is God, our God forever and ever; He will be our guide even to death.”

Everything that happens in your life is pre-ordained by Me. I knew what you would do, how you would react, and what would be the result.

Many things happen because of your actions, many things happen because the devil wants to cause those I love pain, and many more things happen because I want to develop you into the person I have created you to be.

So do not be discouraged when everything around you seems to be falling apart, when you feel like you are falling apart. I knew it was going to happen before time began. Letting go and taking My hand is the best way to take care of it.

Putting years on your life by stressing over it all may seem the only way out, but it is not, My love.

I am the way out and the way through, your pain and depression. I am ready for anything you throw My way. I will catch you and hold you until you have no more tears, until I can stand you back up straight and strong, full of My wisdom and power.

Don’t resist. Just bow your head and say, “I choose You, Lord. Help me!”  

I am here now.

Psalms 139:16, New King James Version:

“Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were written, the days fashioned for me, when as yet there were none of them.”

Spring is right around the corner. With spring comes newness of life, new beginnings and joy as the earth unfolds her tender beauty; beauty that was always there, but in hibernation through the winter months.

Earth sighs with relief as this season comes, and with it I am able to show you the beauty of My creation all over again: new leaves, new flowers, new baby birds, new life.

May I ask you for a new commitment to Me this new spring? Shed the layer of pain and sorrow from the winter of your life. Celebrate the newness of spring by coming to Me as a new creation, full of trust and love.

You have been washed white with the blood of Christ. You are My innocent child. Take My hand and we will walk together in trust and joy.  

I have so much in store for My beloved child!! 

Philippians 3:13-14, New King James Version:

“Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.”
