Blessed Sons and Daughters of the Most High,
Greetings and God bless you. The Lord knows of your
troubles. He sees your plight in all the Earth. He sees your tears and
understands your heart. He knows that many of you are weary. Many of you are
broken and troubled. Many are led about in their heart as if another day of
dreary dread. Some do not want to lift their head out of bed.
I too have been in such states. It is in the broken states
that we become most vulnerable. Where God can work the most in our lives.
Where we learn that nothing in our own strength is able to help us overcome.
That is the place that we need to be, where we can learn total reliance upon
the Father.
Where we must come to the point that we are all his children.
Where he is our Father and we are but liken to five year old children. In the
scriptures we read of how we are to humble ourselves before God as dear
children. The more you become like a child and rely upon your Father the
more you see the loving arms of the one whom begat us in the spirit.
If he is our God and Father how shall he not freely give us
all things? For if he be for us, whom can be against us?
As I said, he understands your plight in all the Earth, for he
too, took on the infirmities of the flesh and mind and found great weariness
upon this Earth. For he was a man that was acquainted with grief, and deemed
a man of sorrows. How shall he not know then, how to comfort us, oh ones that
trust in our own strength?
When we get to the point of total reliance upon him, then we
find that in that vulnerable state, that he can move our mountains. That we
not only trust him for the mortgage payments, but also trust him in guiding us
throughout the day. To move and act and breathe, next to his side as a Father
that walks with his children.
Practice the presence of God. Know that he will never leave
you or forsake you no matter where you go or where you are. He is a tender
and loving God and is most concerned with your welfare.
You say you are in a broken state, about to give up, there may
be even words that come from your mouth that there is no hope. But I say that
we serve a loving God and that he knows and understands, and that this state
of brokenness is just where you need to be, to totally rely upon him. Humble
yourselves in complete abandon, like dear children and run into the arms of
the Father , and let HIM take care of things and come to know him intimately
day unto day, even hour upon hour, for he is closer than your very breath.
Through the anointing that abides within, and not my own
words.
