In The Beginning

Word of the Day
Beloved, restoration is your portion from Me. I restore your soul, your heart and every other part of your life (Psalms 23:3). I delight in restoring everything, even down to the cellular level, to the most intrinsic fiber of your being and thinking. There is always a battle to prevent this, a battle between light and darkness. It started at creation. I won then and I am still winning.

In fact I have already won the greatest prize of all, you (Hebrews 12:3). You and you alone are the greatest treasure of My heart…the greatest delight to any given day. I take care of what I treasure and I take care of you.

In the beginning I hovered over and I moved in a sweeping motion over the empty waste of the earth—over the great darkness on the face of the deep (Genesis 1:2). So I moved across the face of the waters and said, “Let there be light,” (Genesis 1:3) Light was created and it pleased Me. I separated the light from darkness creating day and night. I took unordered wasteland and injected My order and My light into it.

Great chaos and disorder was the enemy of My creation and still is. This does not daunt Me, hold Me back or in any way prevent me from moving on your behalf or anyone else’s. I delight in bringing order. I delight in making things new…in seeing all things reflect what I already know to be true.

Prior to knowing Me you were like the earth’s former state before My presence hovered and injected light which made way for the rest of My reformation of the earth. It all began with, “Let there be light!” It is the same for you. Today I reaffirm and say to you, “Let there be Light now and forever more!”

You see, My light was not just a onetime injection. With each new day, separation of darkness continued and continues to this day. This is visible in the natural as you see the sunrise and sunset.

My work continues in you through the renewing of your mind. Every Word I speak to you brings about more revelation…more light. Absorbing My Word is absorbing My light and it will set you free; Therefore, absorb My Word and absorb Me. And today you will see with greater clarity as the Light that I am shines in and through you. Shine My Beloved, shine… Read Complete Love Letter…

“IN THE beginning God (prepared, formed, fashioned, and) created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form and an empty waste, and darkness was upon the face of the very great deep. The Spirit of God was moving (hovering, brooding) over the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light; and there was light. And God saw that the light was good (suitable, pleasant) and He approved it; and God separated the light from the darkness (Gen1:1-3 Amplified)
Prayer
Lord, You are my restoration and my portion in all things. You restore every waste place in my life and make them beautiful reflections of who You are. Nothing is out of reach of Your redeeming and restoring love.

Today I need Your light in the midst of my dark places…in the midst of every area in need of restoration. I invite you to come and do whatever it takes…and impart whatever I need to reflect who You are in me. I acknowledge the value You have placed on me and agree with You that I am indeed treasure in an earthen vessel. Hover over my earthen vessel as you hovered over the earth and make all things new.

I close my eyes and I can see You hovering over me. I can feel the breath of Your Spirit moving across me and into the recesses of my mind. Touch every hidden subconscious thought which does not line up with Your Word and what You have declared me to be.

As I sit in Your presence I will absorb every portion of Your being. I will absorb every truth and Word you speak to me. Come and penetrate the deepest places of my heart and mind. Penetrate to the very internal subconscious regions of my thinking from whence actions come. . In Your presence I am renewed…I am restored. Right now…this very moment…I declare that darkness is fleeing and Your light has come. Amen

Reflect and Journal:

1. Are there specific areas you are aware of that need to be restored. Start with your most significant need or struggle. Submit it to the One who loves you. Let Him do as the word above indicates. Write what He shows you.
2. Take some time to acknowledge and give thanksgiving for some of the changes or transformations already completed in your life. Often we concentrate on the things that haven’t been done and do not take the time to reflect with gratefulness on what the Lord has already transformed. Doing this makes way for faith to grow and enables us to have hope and believe even more is possible. Never ask for the new without being grateful for what has been given.
3. Reflect on being a treasure in an earthen vessel and how the Lord takes care of His treasure.
