Word of the Day
Beloved, though you have weakness and fall here and there along the way, I am not dismayed. Do not grow wearing in doing good and when you have done all to stand; stand.
I love you with a great love and unending adoration. I look on the deep motivation of your heart toward Me. I look upon the motives of the heart and move accordingly. I look with an intense love and determination. As I do this, I remove every stone which inhibits the fountain of My Presence. I want nothing…absolutely nothing to block the true desire and motive of your heart to be whom and what I have destined you to be.
I come and remove stone upon stone until all the things that hinder the desire of your heart to flow forth with My life and heart. I have always known the weak places within you even before you were born and I was never dismayed or disappointed. Instead, with perfect vision and assurance, I knew you would let go of the things that hold you back because of your great love for Me
Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruning hooks into spears; let the weak say, I am strong [a warrior]! (Joel 3:10 Amplified)
Prayer
Father, thank you for the privilege of being Your child. I praise You for loving me. Even though I am weak, I say, “I am strong, for I am in You.”
Strengthen me when I fail to get back up…strengthen my feeble knees and make me to stand. When I have done all that I can do to stand help me to continue to stand. Help me to not be weary in well doing. I am so grateful Lord, for You see my heart regardless of all I might say or do. You know my deepest desires to love and serve You. I am truly Yours.
Cleanse My heart and show me if there be any motivation in me which does not flow from a pure heart. You know my every weakness and yet, You love me. How amazing…how humbling.
I thank you for removing all things having the ability to hinder my communion with You. I let go of anything and everything having the power to stop the flow of Your love and spirit pouring through me. I do this in order to be who You have called, chosen and destined me to be. Yes Lord, I am truly Yours this day and every day to come. I am free to be all I am called to be. Amen
Reflect and Journal
1. Are you feeling weary as you go about doing good? Write down the desired outcome of that which you are standing in faith for although you may be feeling somewhat weary about it the moment.
2. Beloved, remind yourself the Lord knows the motives and intentions of your heart…that He gives you the desires of your heart and will help them to come to pass
3. Ask the Lord to reveal the hidden things you need to let go of. Write a list of the things the Holy Spirit reveals to you and surrender them to the Lord, giving praise for the freedom you experience as you release them.
4. Celebrate your new found freedom and enjoy the Lords presence flowing through your innermost being in a deeper and more intimate way by writing a love note of gratefulness to Him.
