"I would have you rested before Me. Do not be so geared up that you do not
take time for your rest at My feet. This is the place where the wounds from the past and the present are healed and closed over. It is also the place where you are to receive your
instructions for life in the present and for the future. Wait upon Me. Do not be so anxious to get at a task again. Rest in My Presence.
The spirit is a special part of a person. It needs periods of re-charging and replenishing as does the body. As a result of being in My presence, you may begin anew, stronger
than before, My child... more determined than ever to love Me and shine for Me...more committed to do My will.
The real warfare lies ahead in these last days. My children must be armed and ready, but the King allows His troops to rest before they march. You have been in the heat of the
fire. I have tested you, and you have remained loyal to Me. The lessons learned during such times become a
part of you, never to be lost . . . a part of spiritual maturity.
Remember to stay close to Me in My word and in prayer. Explore there. Dig in. Use the time to read and become thoroughly familiar with Me. Be educated in My Word. Learn to be
one controlled by My Spirit, one guided, directed, and motivated by a higher calling than nature's instinct.
Move with My Spirit. This is to be your motivation. It is divine, and it is from above. Conform to Me and not to people. My
way for all is of the same purpose....to do My will and to conform to Me, but how I obtain that in each of you is special and unique. Each of you must grow up in Me as
individuals. Oh listen to Me, for there is so much to share.
I will teach you of My love, for love is patient and kind, never jealous or envious, never boastful or proud, never haughty or selfish or
rude. Love does not demand its own way. It is not irritable or touchy. It does not hold grudges and will hardly even notice when others do it wrong. (1 Cor. 13:4-5)
I will teach you what it means to not even give thought when a wrong is done to you. That is a height few reach, but you desire this.
There is real peace there. A calm like no other. It is a place totally apart from self and the world, apart from the flesh and carnality. I am
there in that place, for I know that lesson well. The air is rarified there but so clean and pure.
Think not that you must go out of the boundaries that I have for you. Another may be so led, and at times I may lead you to extraordinary action, but just remain in Me.
Wherever I lead, be willing to go. Learn to not be critical of others as they worship more actively or loudly than I have thus led you.
They may be ready for that kind of worship or need the release it brings. I will lead. I will direct each. Just listen to Me.
Be not led by people but by Me. Take your cues and leading from me. Forget the flesh as you worship Me. Direct your spirit, your ears and
your actions to My Throne; and as each will be obedient to do that, each, though a member of a Body, has a private audience with the Father. And I miss nothing. No
motion, no word, no sound, no thought. When directed to Me and motivated by Me, you and I become One. There is a free interchange. Worship in My Spirit.
Pray in My Spirit. Walk in My Spirit. There will be joy unspeakable for those who do. Stay humble before Me, and I will bless you abundantly!" |
