Beloved,
There will be times when you will not receive everything you want.
When I
don’t give you what you want, please know there is always a reason for not
honoring your request. No loving father would give their child everything they
wanted, if he did how would you ever learn to be grateful? I promised to supply
all your needs, not all your wants. No good thing will I withhold from
those who love Me.
Yes, I know in My Word, I said if you delight yourself in Me, I will give you
the desires of your heart. When I said that, it was never My Intention to
give you whatever you wanted, any time you wanted it. It was always My Expectation that as you delighted in Me, you would grow and mature in Me, and
your desires would line up with My Perfect Will for you.
And when you are
walking in My Will for your life,
never would you desire anything
that wouldn’t
glorify My Name.
My Child, there are going to be times when you don't get what you want from Me,
so that I may examine the attitude of your heart towards Me. Will you handle it
with maturity and grace or will you throw a tantrum and turn away from
Me? Look at how My faithful servant Paul handled things when he didn’t
get what he desired. He prayed earnestly for an affliction to be lifted
from him. I know that he desired for it to be removed however, I denied
his request telling him that My Grace was sufficient for him. He handled
it maturely, choosing My Plans and Purposes over his desire for comfort at the
moment. Paul accepted this and I strengthened him, and blessed the work of his
hands.
I Am hoping that you will respond the same way that he did.
I Am looking for those who will walk in holiness before Me,
and will love Me,
and do My Will, no matter the circumstances.
I Am looking for the ones who
follow the example set forth
by My Son and say, “Nevertheless, not my will,
but Thy Will be done.”
I Am searching the earth for such ones, so that I
might
fill them with greater measures of My anointing,
so I can accomplish My Purposes through them.
My Child, will you trust Me, and be one of these?
How will you handle it, the next time you
do not get what you want;
and I choose to
give you what you need?
MEDITATE ON HIS WORD
Psalm 84:11 - For the LORD GOD is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace
and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.
Philippians 4:19 - But my GOD shall supply all your need according to his riches in
glory by Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:11 - Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever
state I am, therewith to be content.
2 Corinthians 12:8-10 - For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart
from me. And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength
is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my
infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore, I take
pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in
distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.
Job 13:15 - Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him:
