Rest in the Lord. Quit striving and exerting much effort and energy, getting stressed and exhausted. Release your worries, problems, dilemmas, and issues to him and don’t go back to pick them back up. Let him carry the responsibility and then rest, in his tender care. Savor your life, while trusting him!
“Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.” (Matthew 11:28-30 MSG)
DO NOT GET LOST IN THE PROCESS. No matter how much we kick, scream, pray, and want things to change instantly, sometimes we just have to endure and be encouraged during the process. God gave Joseph a dream, an anointing to interpret dreams, and a huge destiny. Although he shared the dream, not everyone was supportive or happy concerning the dream. Nevertheless, Until the time that his word came: The word of the Lord tried him. (Psalms 105:19). The trying of the word of The Lord is called “the process”. While in the process you are being processed.
Process -a continuous action, operation, or series of changes taking place in a definite manner.
It doesn’t always feel good or pleasurable growing through the process but Yahweh is working a far greater weight of his glory, stronger grace of his anointing, and the power of His character in your life. So don’t fight the process, EMBRACE THE WORD AND THE CONSEQUENCES THAT COME ALONG WITH IT…You’ll be more like Jesus when you do…Selah
“Be still, and know that I am God! I will be honored by every nation. I will be honored throughout the world.” (Psalm 46:10 NLT)
Be still, desist (cease from doing), cease striving, be weak, let go, surrender, die to yourself and your desire to control the outcome and know, learn, recognize and understand that I am God. I am in control and I am trustworthy. I will be exalted and honored among the nations! I will be exalted and honored in the earth! Surrender, submit, obey, and honor God!
My friend, God says, “It’s not your turn, but it’s your time.” A turn can be taken from you. When it’s your turn, someone can break line in front of you and take it from you. When it is your turn, it’s predicated on your abilities, skills, resources, and what you can see. However, when it’s your time, God’s ability is the basis, along with heaven’s resources, his power, his expertise, and what you cannot see but believe.
A turn can be stolen from you but when God says, “It’s your time.” this season cannot be forfeited because he is the One granting it to you. A turn is just a turn but your time is simply divine. The blessing that God is giving you, the devil cannot do anything about it. The enemy cannot sabotage, hinder, nor prevent God from doing what he has previously decided, in his mind, to do for you. Although, it may not look or feel like your time, God says, “It’s your time.”
In the name of Yeshua our Christ, I activate divine connections, resources, and the anointing of “more than enough” in your life. You are immediately translated from the land of “need more,” into the land of “more than enough.” There is no lack or shortage in God’s presence. I release abundant shares and the abundance of glory to the seeds that you’ve released in the lives of others. May it be returned supernaturally in abundance to you, today, stupendously, eminently, immediately, outrageously, and contagiously, in full manifestation for God’s Glory.
You are in a time of great enlargement and supernatural manifestation. It is time to manifest what you’ve helped make manifest for others, out of pure love and pure worship. God is making happen for you what you’ve helped make happen for others. God is rewarding you openly, for what you’ve done secretly for others.
Although, it may not look or feel like your time, God says, “It is your time.”
You are my treasured possession and I delight in you, my child. Even though you are a fragile vessel of clay, I have placed my treasure within you. You are precious and valuable in my sight. I cherish you and paid the greatest price for you, with the precious life and blood of my son, Jesus. You are worth more than all the rubies and gold. Precious.
I carry you close in my heart and will not let you go. Receive and bask in my love. You do not have to do anything to receive all that I have for you. My child, I accept, take pleasure and value you, as rare and very precious. Know this is your true identity and requires nothing else or good performance. Rest, cease from your labors and let me lavish my love and comfort on you. You are my precious treasure, my jewel in whom I delight.
Love, Abba
“And thou hast been a crown of beauty in the hand of Jehovah, and a diadem of royalty in the hand of thy God.” (Isaiah 62:3 Young’s Literal Translation)
Fluffy seeds float in the air carried by the wind. Seeds from cottonwoods will only produce more of the same. Dandelion seeds grow more dandelions much to the disgust of many a gardener, who is trying to have a beautiful lawn.
What kind of seeds are you producing? Kindness or discord? Seeds of kindness births more kindness. Plant random acts of kindness today.
God spoke: “Earth, green up! Grow all varieties of seed-bearing plants, Every sort of fruit-bearing tree.” And there it was. Earth produced green seed-bearing plants, all varieties, And fruit-bearing trees of all sorts. God saw that it was good. It was evening, it was morning— Day Three. (Genesis 1:11-13 MSG)
Have you had difficulties in your life that seem insurmountable? Negative thought patterns, the past you never overcome, repetitive destructive behavior patterns, hardship, sins you repeat and repeatedly ask God to forgive? When you belong to Christ, you are never alone. These situations come and we overcome, by growing through the pain and darkness. The stuff we go through that seems disastrous becomes the fertilizer that helps us grow through it and become beautiful, mature and productive, in the image of God.
We cry out to Daddy God, asking him to deliver us, immediately. Instead he accompanies us, as we go through the process. We are not the sin or pain with which we struggle. In our hardship, we fall on the Lord’s mercy and give him more of our heart. The dark struggle through the dirt, causes more of Jesus to shine through our life, through refining and dying to our flesh. He heals us and delivers us from all our fears. Abundant life, not as a survivor or victim but as a triumphant overcomer becomes our lifestyle. Our mess becomes a message that encourages and inspires many.
I know what it means to lack, and I know what it means to experience overwhelming abundance. For I’m trained in the secret of overcoming all things, whether in fullness or in hunger. And I find that the strength of Christ’s explosive power infuses me to conquer every difficulty.(Philippians 4:12-13 TPT)
