FROM YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER TO YOU!

My Child, I have my eye on you! I have been watching you your whole life and I love the way I created you! I gave you your personality- and I designed you to know me. I want to fully embrace you but I need your permission because I won’t invade your space. 

I want to show you so many wonderful things about who I have designed you to be and what I have designed you to do! I have the best plan ever for you and together we can accomplish great things! I want you to invite me into every aspect of your life- invite me into your tears, into your hopes and into your thoughts.

Jesus is my firstborn son and we love you and invite you to be part of our relationship! I am Holy and I have designed you to be Holy- My ways are higher than your ways and anything is possible when you submit to my plans and purposes for you!

 My Spirit is here! He is here and He is present for you! He has been released to fill you and permeate every aspect of your being! You need Him to SEE what has been accomplished on your behalf! You need Him to HEAR what is in My heart for you! He is here to HELP you and to GUIDE you and to TEACH you and to LEAD you--- I am waiting for you to make yourself available- It’s your availability that I’m after! It’s your surrender that I want- your willingness to do things My way- I want your agenda- Lay it down and I will give you My agenda for this season.

 I am a good Father and I will not let you down- I will not drop you---I will take everything the enemy meant for harm and turn it for your good! I will continually lead you into victory in every area of your life and I will restore to you the years the locusts have stolen- I will be your rear-guard and I will have your back in every situation- You can trust me! Trust me with all your heart and lean not to your own understanding! Stop trying to figure everything out- your exhausting yourself. I’ve got you! When you put your trust in me – that’s when you can truly rest!

I am a good, good Father and I am here today to reveal my heart of LOVE to you! You are my beloved- my Eye is upon you and I am beckoning you to come closer, to be loosened from every ungodly fear and to ENCOUNTER My goodness! I want you to know in your heart that you are LOVED and CHERISHED by ME! I am here to ENCOUNTER you if you will just reach out and receive Me!

Yes I am speaking to you and I will train you to recognize and hear my voice. Ask me and I will answer you when you ask me with your whole heart!  I am good and you can trust me! I will only remove those things from your soul that hinder you from stepping into your destiny- I will only drive out those things that are not birthed by my Spirit. I want to expose the lies and reveal the truth!!!I want to free you from idols and I want to remove everything that hides Me from you. I want to be Seen by you!

I want you to SEE me in a fresh and new way! I want to show you- TO DEMONSTRATE to you my goodness and my kindness- I want you to be filled with My glory!                       

Love, Your Heavenly Father

PRACTICAL PRAYER: For those struggling with worry and anxiety.

Lord Jesus, today I confess that I have been struggling with ungodly fears including worry and anxiety. I recognize that these things did not come from you.

I confess worry and anxiety as sin and ask you to forgive me for partnering with them.

I confess that I have been trying to figure things out myself and have not always come to you for help.

Forgive me for thinking that you didn’t care, forgive me for thinking that you wouldn’t be able to help me and forgive me for trying to work things out my own strength.

Today I choose to do what your WORD says- to humble myself before you and to cast my cares on you because you care for me (I Peter 5:7)

Lord Jesus, today I choose to truly CAST my cares on you! Teach me how to actually do this on a daily basis.

Right now, as an act of faith, I choose to throw all of my worries onto your shoulders. By faith, I fling them off of me and cast them onto you!

Today, I choose to trust you with the circumstance in my life that I find overwhelming and difficult.

I humble myself and agree that I was never designed to handle life’s stressors apart from you. Today I acknowledge that I need you. 

I confess that I am weary and I am carrying heavy burdens. I choose to take you at your WORD and by faith, I bring all my burdens to you and I exchange them for your rest. By faith, I receive rest for my soul (Matt 11:28-30) 

Lord Jesus, I choose to trust you with all my heart and lean not to my own understanding!

Help me to live from a place of trusting you with all of my problems instead of living from a place of worrying about them. Help me live from a place of truly resting in you.  

Holy Spirit, teach me how to recognize early signs of stress and worry and as soon as I see them, to immediately give them to Jesus and leave them with Him.  

Lord Jesus, thank you for your promises of peace in the midst of difficult circumstances.  

Today, I invite you to fill me with your peace and your rest! Amen.
