Good morning,
Ears to Hear/Hearts to Obey
Good morning,
Good morning,
Trust me. Just trust me. Joseph learned to trust Me even as he went through the things that he endured in his life. He knew My heart, he knew My call but he did not know the way to the end. Yet, my plan was good. So I say trust Me, even when you do not know exactly what is going on, I Am working those things out for you, for your good. I know the end from the beginning, I Am the divine designer of every plan for you. I have not messed up, I have not misstepped, I Am steady and I Am faithful even now says the Lord when things seem so cloudy. Think about My servants, think about how they had to learn to lean upon Me and not trust their own understanding, nor their insight, nor their own wisdom but they leaned on Me. There are times that you do not know what to do, that is when you must lean on Me for I know, I know the way. I know how to get you there with the least amount of attacks from the enemy, I know says the Lord. But it is when you run from the shelter, the secret place that you come under assault and attack from the enemy, but as long as you stay in a hidden place, where I Am working things out. Trusting Me, looking to Me as a child does to their Father, knowing that I have nothing but your highest interest in My heart. There is nothing that you are going through that I have not allowed already for the perfecting of you, some are hard to bear I know, but just like Joseph, I will deliver you from the pit. It is all about you growing up, maturing, and being strong and being steady. I will not let you fail, I will not let you fall, I will uphold you by My right hand of justice, I will not let go. Stay steady and stay strong for this is the season of testing and blessing for My children but your eyes must be on Me, not on celebrities, not on man, not even on those that are well known in My camp. Keep your eyes on Me for I Am the way and I will lead you in the way everlasting, I will not let you fail.
"As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that you may grow thereby: If so be you have tasted that the Lord is gracious" (1 Peter 2:2-3)
"You will show me the path of life: in your presence is fulness of joy; at your right hand there are pleasures for evermore." (Ps. 16:11)
"Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet fine, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all My pleasure." (Is. 46:10)

Good morning,
Every step for you I have ordered, so since I have ordered every step, I Am not caught off guard by anything that you would choose to do. I know the path you would choose long before you chose it and I have already made a way of escape. Some of you I have brought to the desert places once again so that you could trust Me and love Me like you did when you were young and tender. Understand that in that desert place I Am making you a blossom, a bloom, a watered garden right there in the midst of what others would call a wilderness, says the Lord, if you trust Me. I Am not bringing you to the desert to abandon you or leave you, I bring you there to form you, to cause you to grow up, and to mature you, for you to become that garden in the midst of a dry place. That is why I bring you to the desert places so that you can love Me once again like you did when you first knew Me. When you abandoned all of your preconceived ideas and you just trusted Me because you did not know enough not to trust Me, and now all of a sudden you know a little bit and you do not trust Me anymore. I Am saying to you today that I Am bringing you to this place so that you can learn to trust Me wholeheartedly. Say goodbye to everything that the enemy is trying to bring to your heart and mind, his deception and lies, to keep you from producing. Believe Me once again so that you can be that watered place, a refreshing spring, so that I can come and partake of the fruit that I have produced on the inside of you, then shall that fruit be good and I will delight to walk in the midst of that garden every day says the Lord. So allow Me to grow in you those things, where the ground has been hard, hard in your heart, hard to remove and I will remove it says the Lord. I am raking, I am pulling, I am digging, I am plowing, while I am planting and building says the Lord. Let me do it so that you can be that watered garden. A well of delight!
"And it shall come to pass, that like as I have watched over them, to pluck up, and to break down, and to throw down, and to destroy, and to afflict; so will I watch over them , to build, and to plant, sainthood the Lord." (Jer. 31:28)
"Awake, o north wind; and come, thou south; blow upon my garden, that the spices thereof may flow out. Let my beloved come into his garden, and eat his pleasant fruits." (Song 4:16)
"Therefore, behold, I will allure her, and bring her into the wilderness, and speak comfortably unto her. And I will give her her vineyards from thence, and the Valley of Achor for a door of hope: and she shall sing there, as in the days of her youth, and as in the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt." (Hos. 2:14-15)
Love,
Pastor D.
