June 20, 2024 – Ears to Hear/Hearts to Obey

Good morning,

How many days do you rise and not praise Me for raising you? How many days do you forget to thank Me for the breath that flows through your lungs? If you could only see those days as opportunities to sow seeds of faith for your future. It would be best if you had learned by now to praise Me in the good times and when things are rough. Praising Me should never be based on what is currently going on in your life. It is easier to praise Me when all your plans are going great and everything is good, but to praise Me despite ill-favored circumstances shows you are maturing and learning to trust Me. Despite the difficulties, the trials, and the tests that you face, when you still lift Me up and  glorify Me it sends a signal to the defiant one that I Am truly your Lord and Savior.  I have a plan and it is always for your good. I have a purpose and My angels will go to work on your behalf to see to it that everything that you have believed and stood for will come to pass. So continue every day to lift Me up to praise Me, to magnify Me, to glorify Me and keep your attention on Me. You will begin to see doors open and other doors closed, magnificent miracles will follow you so that you can go forth and deliver those miracles to others. That is what will happen in the days ahead for those who seek My face diligently. That is what I Am about to unleash upon this earth, those who are mightily seeking My face. 

  “God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;” (Psalm 63:1)

“Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud upon their beds. Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand;” (Psalm 149:5-6)

“In this you rejoice greatly, even though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been distressed by various trials, so that the genuineness of your faith, which is much more precious than gold which is perishable, even though tested and purified by fire, may be found to result in [your] praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.” (1 Peter 1:6-7)

Love,

Pastor D.
