Good morning,

For in you, I Am well pleased. The enemy has lied to you because of the circumstances of your life, the things you are going through, and how you have handled certain situations. You thought you walked out of order and missed Me. I said My mercy and grace hovers over you all the time, for I know your heart, and I know you desire to be pleasing unto Me otherwise you would not keep coming back for correction. You keep coming back, no matter how far you fall, and I pick you up, and I realize and recognize the things you think on, but I see you through eyes of faith. You are well loved. You are well-loved, My beloved ones, and I want you to know I Am pleased with every step that you have taken. Come closer and draw nearer to Me. I look not at the things that you did that caused you to fall, but I pick you up and I strengthen you with My Words and My love and My encouragement. You do not know how much I truly love you. No love can be measured on this earth to the love that I have for you and that I possess towards you. I will always, always be loving you, to heal you, to deliver you, to set you free, to bring you up higher, to make you understand My ways, My purposes, and the destiny I have for you. It is always good, so I Am pleased with your efforts that you have done so far. Your minds, protected by My grace, protected by My Mercy, protected by My arms and My wings of love, there is no failure in you. I see the good in you.

“He will cover you and completely protect you with His pinions, And under His wings you will find refuge;” (Psalm 91:4) 

“The LORD appeared to me (Israel) from ages past, saying, I have loved you with an everlasting love; Therefore with lovingkindness I have drawn you and continued My faithfulness to you. His faithfulness is a shield and a wall.” (Jeremiah 31:3)

“And try to learn [in your experience] what is pleasing to the Lord [let your lives be constant proofs of what is most acceptable to Him].” (Ephesians 5:10)

Love,

Good morning,

  I have set you aside for the times and seasons that you are in now and in the coming days ahead. Just like My sons of Issachar, you can discern times and seasons. That is why I have been calling you to draw closer to Me. I need you dwelling under the secret place of your God for underneath My wings is where you are prepared and you learn to hear My voice for clarity, directions, and instructions for the days ahead. Just as I prepared Samuel from a child to lead and bring clarity directions and instruction for his times and his seasons, I Am doing that right now for you. I Am faithful to prepare and to give My true prophets My word for the hour. The alarm of warning has been sounded from My holy mountain. Many of My children have allowed the times that they are living in to cause dullness to their hearing, but for those who are Mine, I Am now preparing for the most fruitful season that they have ever known. So know that part of My preparation is cutting away from your life those things, people, and habits that hinder your productivity. This is the process of producing the trees of righteousness. Pruning causes clarity of mind and heart. I Am God and all that I do is for your good to bring in the end the highest from your life. Do not doubt that you are in My hands and everything that I Am doing will turn out for your good. So sit underneath My shade and you will arise and your light will begin to shine, making the steps that you need to take like a raised highway. Every step will be sure as you come up to My high places to hear and obey. 

“And of the children of Issachar, which were men that had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do; the heads of them were two hundred; and all their brethren were at their commandment.” (1 Chronicles 12:32)

“Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.” ( John 15:2-4)

“To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he might be glorified.” ( Isaiah 61:3)

You will begin to rise to a new place of depth with Me.  A new horizon, where you are liberated from hurts, rejections, and depression of circumstances of the past. 

 
 
Good morning,
 
    My beloved, I have tenderly drawn you aside to Myself.  Here as you LET go of the despair and disappointment of the things of yesterday, I will do a new thing in you.  You will begin to rise to a new place of depth with Me.  A new horizon, where you are liberated from hurts, rejections, and depression of circumstances of the past.  You will be radiant with new ideas and fresh new hope.  My plans for you have not faltered, they are plans to cause you to advance, as you continue to submit to My Lordship.  No, My dear ones, you have not been forsaken.  You are developing eagle's wings to be able to soar high, high above those old things that would try to ground you.  The way may look rugged and sometimes it may seem as if you are alone.  You are never alone!  I will carry you in My Arms when you become weary, for you have captured My Heart with your passion, devotion, and dedication to Me.  I will raise up and send to you My friends and My lovers to aid and assist you.  Just as Moses had Aaron and Hur, I will give you My faithful friends, those who I have approved of.  Move on into the center of My will for you.  The way may seem rough and difficult at times, but I know you, I know that you can be trusted to keep My Word all the way through.  Here neither applause nor scorn of others will sway you.  Here you will see the glorious rewards and victories that I have for you.  Walk on with Me, do not retreat or turn back to look at those graves of disappointments and rejections.
    
    I Am will be strong in you.  As you keep your eyes on Me, you may see others taking routes that I will not allow you to step on.  Do not entertain their way, for I have elite and extraordinary forces, you may be one of these.  So again, I say keep your eyes on Me, I Am your Great and Faithful Counselor.  By My counsel, you have been brought this way.  Your way is not a crowded road, don't look for many to join My Highest Way.  Draw upon the ability of My Grace, it is truly sufficient.  My child, lean on Me, I will bring you into My intensive care.  There I watch you intently.  I know that your need is deeper now, far deeper than ever before.  If you let My healing power and My peace flow, it will wash away the painful memories of your past and cause you to walk in the springtime of newness of life. 
 
    "But He said to me, My grace (My favor and loving-kindness and mercy) is enough for you [sufficient against any danger and enables you to bear the trouble manfully]; for My strength and power are made perfect (fulfilled and completed) and show themselves most effective in [your] weakness. Therefore, I will all the more gladly glory in my weaknesses and infirmities, that the strength and power of Christ (the Messiah) may rest (yes, may pitch a tent over and dwell) upon me!" (2 Corin. 12:9)
 
    "To grant [consolation and joy] to those who mourn in Zion—to give them an ornament (a garland or diadem) of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, the garment [expressive] of praise instead of a heavy, burdened, and failing spirit—that they may be called oaks of righteousness [lofty, strong, and magnificent, distinguished for uprightness, justice, and right standing with God], the planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified." (Is. 61:3)
 
    "So for the sake of Christ, I am well pleased and take pleasure in infirmities, insults, hardships, persecutions, perplexities and distresses; for when I am weak [in human strength], then am I [truly] strong (able, powerful in divine strength)." (2 Corin. 12:10)
 
Love,

Understand this and take to heart that the plan of the enemy is to keep your eyes and mind on all of the trouble and chaos that he keeps stirring up around you.

 
Good morning,
 
    Understand this and take to heart that the plan of the enemy is to keep your eyes and mind on all of the trouble and chaos that he keeps stirring up around you.  Do not quickly forget that I have said, "in the time of trouble I will hide you safe in My pavilion and under the shadow of My wings."  My desire is that you would learn to keep your eyes and your mind stayed on My goodness to you.  Goodness and mercy are on assignment from heaven to do you good.  You must stay readily accessible by pressing into the hiding place that I have for you.  There you have access to the Kingdom, all that you need for recovery, restoration, and a refreshing.  Yes, I have given to you all that is needed to live a victorious life.
     You are standing at the dawn of your breakthrough, do not be deceived now.  This is where the enemy will pull out all the wicked spirits of offenses, bitterness, and unforgiveness.  Your thoughts and your words you must put a watch on and cast them down.  You do possess authority over them.  Remember your fight is not against people, but against principalities, powers, rulers of the darkness of this present world, and against spiritual wickedness in high places.  Here is where the spirit of deception will turn My children against one another, fighting in the House, instead of against the enemy.  This will cause you to be defeated when you fight against those who I am for.  In war many times there is fire sent out that hurts and mauls their own allies.  This confusion is a smoke screen to keep you from receiving what you have labored and believed for.  Once you step through the opening, the light that you will have will be greater than what you had before the storm came.  What you have glanced at in the shadows shall be clearly known.  I make darkness light, and the crooked places straight!  More than before, you must stay glued by love to the members of My Body that I have connected you with, this is for your healing and your deliverance."  Take refuge and be confident in Me until the calamities pass, for I Am your hiding place.
 
    "Surely or only goodness, mercy, and unfailing love shall follow me all the days of my life, and through the length of my days the house of the Lord [and His presence] shall be my dwelling place." (Ps.23:6)
 
    "Be merciful and gracious to me, O God, be merciful and gracious to me, for my soul takes refuge and finds shelter and confidence in You; yes, in the shadow of Your wings will I take refuge and be confident until calamities and destructive storms are passed. (Ps.57:1)
 
    "For we are not wrestling with flesh and blood [contending only with physical opponents], but against the despotisms, against the powers, against [the master spirits who are] the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spirit forces of wickedness in the heavenly (supernatural) sphere."(Eph. 6:12)
 
    "For by the grace (unmerited favor of God) given to me I warn everyone among you not to estimate and think of himself more highly than he ought [not to have an exaggerated opinion of his own importance], but to rate his ability with sober judgment, each according to the degree of faith apportioned by God to him." (Rom. 12:3)
 
Love,
