Choose Me

Psalm 24:3-4 (TPT) Who, then, ascends into the presence of the Lord? And who has the privilege of entering into God’s Holy Place? Those who are clean—whose works and ways are pure, whose hearts are true and sealed by the truth, those who never deceive, whose words are sure.

Beloved, entering into deep fellowship with Me is something available to all. It simply requires a choice. Choosing Me. Choosing purity over that which would create separation. Choosing truth over lies that would draw you away. Choosing pursuit of Me over distractions. No one – not even Me, likes to be marginalized and given the dregs of time. True intimacy is cultivated, not demanded.

I AM not one to be manipulated or controlled. I do not appreciate demands to deliver a specific outcome as if i were a genie in a bottle. I AM God. Yield, beloved. Choose Me, and then yield. That is when you begin to receive the overwhelming blessings of revelation and intimacy that I have for you. So make the decision, make Me a priority, and choose Me. Continue reading “Choose Me”

Pour Forth Praise

Psalm 40:3 (NET) He gave me reason to sing a new song, praising our God. May many see what God has done, so that they might swear allegiance to him and trust in the LORD!

Beloved, sing a new song, for I AM Adonai Elohim – the Lord God most high, and I AM faithful and worthy of praise. Those who trust in Me are not put to shame, for they rest in the shadow of My wings, and in My presence they find fullness of joy.

Look, beloved, and see all I have done. I AM forever moving in your life and on your behalf – see My hand at work. And in the dark times and in the silence, listen for My still small voice because in both good times and in bad, I AM with you. So rejoice and pour forth praise.

My Heart of Mercy

John 3:16-17 (VOICE) For God expressed His love for the world in this way: He gave His only Son so that whoever believes in Him will not face everlasting destruction, but will have everlasting life. Here’s the point. God didn’t send His Son into the world to judge it; instead, He is here to rescue a world headed toward certain destruction.

Beloved, My heart toward you is not one of judgement, but rather of mercy. I’ve gone to great lengths to ensure that the grace you need is available to you. I do so out of My great love for you, for you are precious to Me beyond measure.

A loving earthly parent wouldn’t strive to create a child only to throw it out like yesterday’s trash, but rather they treasure their precious one for the gift that they are. In the same way, I have not created you for judgment, but rather for mercy. You are the apple of My eye.

Jehovah Tsur (the Lord our Strength)

Psalm 144:1 (KJV) Blessed [be] the LORD my strength, which teacheth my hands to war, [and] my fingers to fight:

Beloved, I AM your rock – your strength, so call on My name when you feel weak. Know that I AM with you – strengthening you. For My very nature is strength. I AM Jehovah Tsur – the Lord your strength. Behold, I AM steadfast and true.

Lean on Me in times of trouble, and come to Me when you feel weak. I know your nature intimately, and I AM what you need. For when you don’t feel able, I will carry you through. And when all hope seems gone, I move on behalf of you. So cling to Me with unrelenting resolve, and trust Me to sustain you.

My Everything {Moments with God}

{Reminding myself} When I am weary, You renew my strength. And when I am tired, You give me rest. And when I am sad, You give me joy. And when I am lonely, You give me peace. In every moment and every season, You have what I need. So I will look to You at all times and hold fast to Your hand, for whatever need I’ll ever have – I know You have a plan. I’ll rest in You – in the shadow of Your wings, for You, my God, are my everything.

Matthew 11:28 (NLT) Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.

Psalm 57:1 (NLT) Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy! I look to you for protection. I will hide beneath the shadow of your wings until the danger passes by.

Kadosh Elohim (Holy God)

Psalm 99:9 (ASV) Exalt ye Jehovah our God, And worship at his holy hill; For Jehovah our God is holy.

Beloved, I AM Kadosh Elohim – the holy God. And just as I AM holy, I call you to walk in holiness. Choose to be set apart – consecrated to Me. Choose to live differently, not as the world at large lives, but rather with the intention of yielding to a higher plan.

Being holy comes at a cost. It means being different, and often misunderstood. In moments when being set apart causes discomfort and strain, remember that in being holy you are choosing to align with Me and with My Kingdom. So be blessed as you walk in holiness.

Steadfast and Faithful {Moments with God}

{With a heart full of gratitude} God, I don’t know what I would do without You, and am grateful I will never have to learn. You are steadfast and faithful, my rock and my foundation. You’re the touchstone I can always rely on, so I know that no matter what comes, I can turn and cling to You. I can seek You for wisdom, and ask Your Spirit for truth. I know You’ll always lead me, and so I yield to You. I need never fear uncertain times, for You’re never caught unaware. So I can trust in You faithfully, and leave myself in Your care. You comfort and console me when times of trial come, and You bolster and You strengthen me, so I can forever keep moving on. I’m so grateful that You love me, and that You’ve chosen me. I’m blessed to be Your beloved, and in that I find my identity.

Psalm 18:2 (TPT) You’re as real to me as bedrock beneath my feet, like a castle on a cliff, my forever firm fortress, my mountain of hiding, my pathway of escape, my tower of rescue where none can reach me. My secret strength and shield around me, you are salvation’s ray of brightness shining on the hillside, always the champion of my cause.

The Apple of My Eye

Psalm 17:8 (VOICE) Keep close watch over me as the apple of Your eye; shelter me in the shadow of Your wings.

Beloved, just as you are pained if someone injures the pupil of your eye, so do I feel every hurt and wound you experience. For you are the apple of My eye – My beloved one, My focus, and I care for you more than you could begin to comprehend.

Though trials will surely come – for they always do – know that the shelter of My wings is always there for you to turn to. I AM steadfast and I AM faithful, and My love continues from generation to generation without end. So rest, knowing I AM watching over you and I AM with you, for you are Mine. Continue reading “The Apple of My Eye”

Fully Known and Fully Loved

Psalm 17:7 (VOICE) Put Your marvelous love on display for all to see. Liberator of those who long for shelter beside You, set them safely away from their enemies, ever welcomed by grace.

Beloved, be wrapped in My love and grace, for you are safely in my grip and held dear to My heart. Those who dwell in safety beside Me, have chosen to rest in My presence. All are welcome. My grace is sufficient and My love abounds.

Draw near, beloved. There is none beside Me. My love for you far exceeds your grandest imaginations, so rest in Me. Be set free by the beauty of being fully known and fully loved. Continue reading “Fully Known and Fully Loved”

Keenly Attuned

Psalm 17:6 (VOICE) I am crying aloud to You, O True God, for I long to know Your answer. Hear me, O God. Hear my plea. Hear my prayer for help.

Beloved, I AM keenly attuned to your voice. I don’t miss one utterance that falls from your lips. I know you so well that I don’t miss even your unspoken heart cries. I hear them all. I AM always ready and I AM always listening.

In the same way a good parent would not sit back and watch as their child struggled and drowned, know that I too am keenly attentive to your every need, so you don’t have to beg for My help or My attention – I give it freely. I listen to each whisper, and anticipate every need. So trust that I AM with you and that I will never leave.

Psalm 17:5-8 (VOICE) I will press on —moving steadfastly forward along Your path. I will not look back. I will not stumble. I am crying aloud to You, O True God, for I long to know Your answer. Hear me, O God. Hear my plea. Hear my prayer for help. Put Your marvelous love on display for all to see. Liberator of those who long for shelter beside You, set them safely away from their enemies, ever welcomed by grace. Keep close watch over me as the apple of Your eye; shelter me in the shadow of Your wings.
