Good morning,
All this time you have been in training. All this while I have prepared you for every valley just like My servant David, on the back woods. He fought a bear, he fought a lion, he was in training for Goliath. I have spent a lifetime with you, training you for your "giant" moment. Do not be afraid of the enemy that you see, do not be afraid of the circumstances that you face for you have been trained, fully equipped and ready for this battle, and I have already crowned you the victor. So have no fear, I am backing you, I go before you, and I surround you. You will not win if you walk in fear, but you must go boldly and stand boldly as My servant did, fully ready because his trust was in Me. You will win, you will stand victorious and receive the victor's crown for all that you have done and all that you have gone through and all that you have walked through. I have seen those times when others did not see, I have walked with you in the midnight hours when others did not hear. I was with you there when you cried and no one dried your tears. I was there to catch your tears and put them in a bottle. I encouraged you when no one had a word of encouragement for you. I Am the lover of your soul and I Am your father. I Am gentle and kind, yet strong, and I say to you today, there is nothing, nothing, nothing that is too hard or difficult for you, for you are made of greater stock. On the inside of you is a king, a warrior, ready for any battle, ready to stand and face any demonic force, for you know that the greater one abides and resides on the inside of you, and we walk together. Wherever you go, I go. As you yield yourself to Me when you speak, I speak and the power of My words are heard and echoed around this world. For even today, everything has been sustained, it has been from My Word, that is the power that you have on the inside of you, the sustainability of My Word. I will not lose, you cannot lose, I Am a victorious winner and so are you. You are made in my image, so do not be afraid of the things you see for I Am greater on the inside of you and we walk together and there is nothing that we cannot do together. Understand this and yield yourself once again to Me like you did when you were first born again. Remember how you loved Me and how you depended on Me, then you did not know very much and yet your dependency on Me was very heavy. You did not know the way, you trusted in Me because you thought, you thought in your heart and mind that I knew the way. Now because you have grown a little you think that I do not know the way, I know the way. I Am the same God, I have not changed, I know exactly where I Am taking you and how to get you there. So lean over on Me and have your confidence in Me and together we will win says the spirit of grace and mercy.
"And we all, with unveiled face, continually seeing as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are progressively being transformed into His image from [one degree of] glory to [even more] glory, which comes from the Lord, [who is] the Spirit." (2 Corin. 3:18)
"There is no fear in love [dread does not exist]. But perfect (complete, full-grown) love drives out fear, because fear involves [the expectation of divine] punishment, so the one who is afraid [of God’s judgment] is not perfected in love [has not grown into a sufficient understanding of God’s love]." (1 John 4:18)
"You have taken account of my wanderings; Put my tears in Your bottle. Are they not recorded in Your book? Then my enemies will turn back in the day when I call; This I know, that God is for me." (Ps. 56:8-9)
Love,
Pastor D.
