Word of the Day
Beloved in this last days and seasons you have made many great steps in the journey we have taken together since the day we first met. I am so proud of you and I want you to know complete victory is assured. In Me victory already is. I am bringing the already is Kingdom reality into your natural realm. The Kingdom is at hand (Matthew 10:7). It is nigh unto you. All you have done for and with Me will not be for naught.
In fact, your co-laboring with Me under the hovering presence of Holy Spirit has already accomplished things you are not yet aware of. Sure enough, there are many workers behind the scene being played out in your life, who are bringing things to pass at My command. Have faith and do not be dismayed…I am not in a hurry…and I love the process…won’t you.
After all, I already see you as an Eden…as a watered garden and I have the patience to walk out the process with you (Isaiah 58:11 Isaiah 51:2-4). Most of all, I want you to see yourself as Eden, for if you do, your fervor will be great. Fear will have no power, and cooperation will abound.
Beloved as we journey on this path of restoration, don’t look back or give up precious ground based on vain speculations. Press in…press on and stay on the narrow road with Me (Phil 3:13-15). I promise you will not be disappointed.
It is imperative that you grasp on to My Word and revel in its truth. The truth is this– I have called you to be fruitful and to multiply in every aspect of your life. I sent My son, Jesus, to seek and save that which was lost (Luke 19:10). More than souls were lost that day in the garden. My order—My perfect order—My Eden, if you will, was lost and I am going to reclaim it through you…yes, you My king and priest. You are My plan in and on the earth. You are the one I choose to work with…take dominion with. I have no other plan…there is no plan B…you are the plan…you are the one…you are plan A.
Therefore, don’t underestimate yourself for I confound the wise things of the world with what seems foolish to them. Where you are weak, I am strong. You must remember this at all cost. It will help you and enable you to give your own self grace.
Beloved, it gives Me great pleasure to be your strength. Yes, you are My king and priest, My ambassador. Rise up in your position. I am with you. My presence is hovering…My voice is speaking…Light has come.
“Indeed, the LORD will comfort Zion; He will comfort all her waste places And her wilderness He will make like Eden, And her desert like the garden of the LORD; Joy and gladness will be found in her, Thanksgiving and sound of a melody…” (Isaiah 51:3-4)
Prayer
Lord, what seems like small steps to me has brought You joy. Forgive me for being so hard on myself when You are so pleased. What I cannot see, You can. You already see the victory. You already see and call me a victor. Time is of no matter to You. Teach me to love the process and enjoy going through it with You. Give me Your perspective on process and time. How I want Your heart in reference to patience and time.
I will grab a hold of Your word for it is truth and life to me. It is Light. I receive wisdom to walk as a king and priest…to function as Your ambassador with full authority and anointing. I agree with You and declare that my life is a place of Eden in this earth and an oasis for those in need. I am fruitful and I do multiply according to Your promise…according to Your Word. Perfect order is coming to my life and to my way of thinking. My mind is renewed in You by the power of Your Word.
Lord, You have clothed me in Your righteousness and I am seated with You far above all hindering foes and powers of destruction. You are my strength…my Strong tower…my ever flowing fountain of Life and Light. I see You for You are with me and in me. I am Your watered garden, an Eden of abundant fruit and provision to the world around me. Amen
Reflect and Journal:
- He is so pleased with you and enjoys His journey with you, calls you His watered garden, His Eden. Journal your thoughts on this.
- How do you tend to focus on the lack of progress you have made instead of the accomplishments you have achieved in His strength?
- Take some time to look back in a positive way. List some accomplishments or areas you have overcome in Him. Write them down and then declare them once again over your own heart. In the process of doing this declare the same kind of success over things you still struggle with. Release a testimony of faith in reference to what has been done over that which needs to be done and hope, expectancy, and assurance will arise like the morning sun.
HI BRENDA,
I love reading,”The Word of the Day”,it’s a blessing, as I enter into God’s rest by submitting to the surgery of God’s Word daily. It’s the character of God himself in the word. It’s living,active, He has for me. For the word of God is quick and powerful,and shaper than any two edged sword,piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit,and of the joints and marrow,and is discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart-Hebrews 4:12. Wow!That’s good spiritual food.[smile]. Thank you,you are a blessing,Brenda.
1. I smile about this…being God’s watered garden. I know He guides me when I write my poems, as they are inspirational. I know He’s there when the tempest is near and protects me. I know he cares.
2. I don’t focus on my lack, only on the path I am taking….one step at a time. I know where I want to go and how I want to act and be…..I am, after all, HIS.
3. I thank God for opening up my talent as a poet. I write for HIM. I know he wants more from me and I am capable if I will allow myself to fully immense myself in my oneness with Him. I feel I can do anything and with a prayer in my heart, and His guidance, I can. I can change for the better. That is His wish for me. It is mine, too.
