Faith Believers,
The Word states, Jesus said, "Love the Lord your GOD with all your passion and prayer and intelligence. This is the most important, the first on any list” - Matthew 22:37a.
King David gives us perhaps the best example of one who absolutely, and without question, loved the Lord his God with all of his heart, soul, and mind. Dressed ceremonially for worship in a white linen ephod, David “danced before the Lord with all his might, while he and the entire house of Israel were bringing up the ark of the Lord with shouts and the sound of trumpets” - 2 Samuel 6:14-15. David loved GOD intensely and creatively! The Psalms also testify to the depth of his desire for the Lord. He prayed earnestly, sang, played instruments, wrote music, danced, and gave honor to GOD with every gift, talent, and opportunity he had. One has only to read Psalms 63:1–8 to see the depth of longing and love that David had for our Father.
Jesus commanded us to love the Lord our GOD, and Scripture punctuates this over and over again. It has been my experience that when Scripture is repetitive, we need to pay special attention - and be especially focused on obedience. Take some time to read and pray through the book of Deuteronomy 6:5, 10:12, 11:1, 11:13, 11:22, 30:16; Joshua 22:5; 1 Corinthians 8:3; and 1 John 5:3.
Thank God for what you have,
Ask God for what you need.

Father,
I come to You today,
filled with a deep longing for more of You
than I have yet experienced in my lifetime.
There is always more of You to experience…
a never-ending well of love and grace to be drawn from.
Yet, I sometimes waste time in my worldly pursuits and pleasures.
Convict my heart of my deep need for all that You are
and allow me to rest continually in Your Presence.
In the name of Your Son Jesus Christ, I pray.
Amen

Be Strong in Faith and Give God the Glory (10.30.15)
Faith Believers,
You are nervous and depression is trying to set in.
The enemy is trying to break you. He is trying to make you give up.
You cannot give up.
Hear what the Lord is saying......
- Marilyn
My Child,
Do not give up on Me.
You know these things are not from Me.
I see you with financial problems. Lay them on the table, put your hands on them and give them to ME. You have worried about them to the point that you are now starting to become sick in your body. Release them unto Me!
Take your hands off of them.
Allow Me to do what I have promised to do.
When you worry, you take back your confession of faith.
You begin to doubt if I will fulfill My promises. And yes, you have doubted Me. Repent and say, “Lord, I believe. Help thou mine unbelief.” I have not forgotten you My Child. I AM HERE.
Give all that concerns you to Me, and then forget about them.
I see what you are going through. I know all about your concerns. Trust Me, and I will make a way where there seems no way. Do not worry about how it will be done, just trust that it will be. That is all I ask, TRUST ME! Stagger not at My promises through unbelief, but be strong in faith and give Me the Glory. I AM able to deliver. I have worked it out!
Be thou comforted by these words today, for surely I know what you are going through. I have never taken My Eyes off you. I have been with you in the midst of the fire, and now I have come to set you free. Believe in My Word, The COMFORTER is here. I speak peace to you this day. Peace, not as you know it, but My Peace, a Peace that surpasses ALL understanding.
A Peace that will keep you calm in the midst of your storms.
My Peace.
I AM HERE. I HAVE COME TO SEE ABOUT YOU.
In the name of My Son Jesus,
I speak PEACE to you this day

Seek God First in the Morning, Allow Him to Plan Your Day & Watch Things Fall Into Place (10.29.15)
My Child,
When you started your day today, whose agenda did you have in mind?
Was it My agenda you followed -- or was it yours?
Did you start out this day seeking Me first,
or did you get up thinking about all the things you had to get done?
I know your daily chores were on your mind.
However, did you ever think how much better your day would be
if you asked Me to order your steps
or if you committed your day into My Hands?
This day, I ask you to let go of your plans, and be sensitive to the leading and direction of My Spirit, and the things I want you to do. It is with Me, and through Me, that you will accomplish so much more; because I can redeem the time for you. With Me leading and guiding you, there is nothing that you won’t be able to achieve.
Lay down your burdens and pick up My yoke, for it is easy, and My burden is so much lighter than yours. Therefore, seek Me first, and allow Me to plan your days, And then watch everything else fall into place.
Meditate on God's Word:
Psalm 37:5 - Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.
Psalm 37:23 - The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way.
Psalm 55:22 - Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.
Psalm 119:133 - Order my steps in thy word: and let not any iniquity have dominion over me.
Matthew 11:30 - For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

As You Bless Others, God will Bless You (10.28.15)
My Child,
There are people you are around who care for you.
Sometimes it is hard for you to recognize them,
because you are busy caring for others.
You always feel more comfortable giving than receiving.
You often feel strange, and tend to resist someone caring for you.
But I will open your eyes to show you how much
you are loved and well thought of.
I know it is more blessed to give, than receive,
but now you need to receive.
Do not worry, you will not become prideful.
This is an area in which you need to grow.
Yes, it will feel strange at first, but do not turn away.
As you bless others, I, the Lord your God, will bless you.
Psalms 24:5 - He shall receive a blessing from the LORD And righteousness from the GOD of his salvation.

A Forgiveness Prayer (10.27.15)
I come before you this morning in prayer
for those who call themselves my enemy.
I bring them before you Lord because they have hurt me.
Right now I confess any negative feelings I have towards them.
I forgive them for the wrong they have inflicted upon me,
and for any deliberate or unintentional thing they have
participated in that has caused me pain and grief.
In the best way I know how Lord, I fully forgive them.
I release them to you Lord.
Now that I have forgiven my enemy,
I am choosing right now, in the name of Jesus,
not to hold any grudge against them.
I want to thank you Father as I pray to you right now,
you are freeing my spirit to live again and to have peace.
I am free from resentment, pain and bitterness.
I am now filled with joy, freedom and love.
Father God, You said in Your Word to love those
who spitefully use me and those who do and say
things that are mean and hurtful.
Words and deed cannot be taken back, but
Your Love and Peace can calm and heal any situation.
Thank you Lord for the comfort You have provided,
and continue to provide, to those who trust in You.
I pray this prayer in the name of Your Son, Jesus Christ.
Amen

My Child,
The authority you have in My Word is as real and as solid as the earth on which you walk. As you step on the earth, you do not doubt it will hold.

The God of Peace will Crush satan under Your Feet (10.25.15)
Faith Believers,
satan's nature is malicious.
his efforts in opposing GOD, His people, and His Truth are tireless (Job 1:7; Job 2:2; Matthew 13:28). he is always opposed to man's best interests (1 Chronicles 21:1; Zechariah 3:1-2). And through his role in introducing sin into the human family (Genesis 3), satan has gained the "power of death," a power which Christ broke through His crucifixion and resurrection (Hebrews 2:14-15). satan tempted Christ directly, trying to lead Him into compromise by promising Him worldly authority and power (Luke 4:5-8).
Along with his work of tempting mankind, satan also delights in deception (1 Timothy 3:6-7; 2 Timothy 2:26). his lying nature stands in bold contrast to the truth for which Christ stands (John 8:32, John 8:44). The great falsehood which he uses so frequently, is that good can be attained by doing wrong. This lie is apparent in practically all his temptations (Genesis 3:4-5). As the great deceiver, satan is an expert at falsifying truth (2 Corinthians 11:13-15).
he brings disorder into the physical world by afflicting human beings (Job 1-2; 2 Corinthians 12:7; Hebrews 2:14). Sometimes GOD allows him to afflict His people for purposes of correction (1 Timothy1:20). Not to worry, satan will always fail in his continuing rebellion against GOD. his final defeat is predicted in the New Testament (Luke 10:18; John 12:31; Revelations 12:9; Revelations 20:10).
The death of Christ on the cross is the basis for satan's final defeat (Hebrews 2:14-15; 1 Peter 3:18, 1 Peter 3:22). This event was the grand climax to a sinless life, during which Jesus triumphed over the enemy repeatedly (Matthew 4:1-11; Luke 4:1-13). Here again, satan probably rejoiced in the death of Christ, believing this to be a victory for him, but like all his victories, this one, too, was short-lived.
When Jesus rose from the grave, satan was once again defeated.
The final victory will come when Jesus returns and satan is cast into the lake of fire (Revelations 20:1-15). Strength for a Christian's victory over sin has also been provided through the death of Christ. We have assurance that "the GOD of peace will crush satan under your feet" (Romans 16:20). But such victory depends on GOD's Grace and Power in our lives; and our will to offer resistance to satan's temptations (Ephesians 4:25-27; 1 Peter 5:8-9).
To help Christians win this battle against satan, GOD has provided the power of Christ's blood (Revelations 12:11), the continuing prayer of Christ in Heaven for Believers (Hebrews 7:25), the leading of the Holy Spirit (Galatians 5:16), and various weapons for spiritual warfare (Ephesians 6:13-18).
Some people have trouble admitting the existence of such an enemy as satan. But his presence and activity do explain why there is such evil and suffering. The Bible makes it clear that satan exists and that one of his main objectives is to oppose the rule of GOD in the affairs of man.
Many wonder why GOD would allow satan, this great embodiment of evil, to exist in His creation. No completely satisfying answer to this question has been found. Perhaps He allows it to show that evil and wrongdoing do not provide the key to the ultimate meaning of life, which man so desperately desires. Or perhaps He allows it to spiritually build a Christian's wisdom and knowledge - drawing him or her closer to GOD, and away from satan.
Regardless of what evil scheme the enemy has plotted, it will not work unless our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ allows it. And if it is allowed, it must be for our good.
Jehovah Jireh will replace everything the enemy has stolen from His children. Ten times over....

We are Clay in the Hands of God, the Master Potter (10.23.15)
Yet, O LORD, you are our Father. We are the clay, you are the potter; we are all the work of your hand. - Isaiah 64:8
Faith Believers,
Aware now of the horrendous consequences of their rebellion against GOD, the people of Judah called upon their covenant relationship with GOD their Father. In prayer, they reminded Him that they still looked to Him as Father, and as such, asked for mercy from His Hand.
With the same principle, but a different image, they affirmed their dependence upon Him. They were so completely willing to be shaped and molded by GOD, that they said, “We are clay in the hands of the Master Potter.”
Just as the people of Judah did, we still refer to our Father as the Potter, and ourselves as the clay.
The clay does not tell the potter what to do, but simply submits to the creative and powerful hands that work it.
Today humbly go to our Father, the Potter, and place yourself in His Loving Hands.
Let Him shape you and mold you
into what He desires you to become.
Let Him shape you and mold you
into what He desires you to become.
Lord,
We rejoice that through Jesus,
You are our Father.
We ask You, Father,
as the great Master Potter,
to shape us as You desire.
We are moldable clay in Your hands.
Do Your creative work in us, and through us,
for the sake of Your Name, Your Glory and Your Kingdom
Father God.
You are our Father.
We ask You, Father,
as the great Master Potter,
to shape us as You desire.
We are moldable clay in Your hands.
Do Your creative work in us, and through us,
for the sake of Your Name, Your Glory and Your Kingdom
Father God.
Amen

The Time has Come to Rise Above Your Circumstances.... (10.22.15)
My Child,
Things occurred that have overwhelmed you and
caused a spirit of confusion and fear to come upon you.
You are wondering what to do, because all seems hopeless.
I say things are not what they seem.
I have given you authority and power.
The time has come to rise above your circumstances.
Fight the good fight of faith,
and bind the strongman whom you allowed
to enter your house.
Put him out. Do not allow him to have his way.
Rise up, confront the strongman and break
his control over every area of your life.
Exercise by faith the authority I’ve given you.
You have My Anointing and it will break the yoke of every bondage.
Rise up! Do not allow the enemy to hold you down.
Do not be afraid of him or his lies any longer.
If you entertain thoughts of defeat and failure,
it will hinder you from receiving all I have for you.
HEAR My Words, and STOP being discouraged.
I know you feel as though you have lost your way,
but you haven’t. It is not over!!!
Turn this entire situation around and reclaim what’s rightfully yours.
Bind the strongman, and loose yourself from what the enemy has done.

I love You in all things, and above all things.

in Heaven.
Nothing is good that is against Your Will,
and all that is good comes from Your Hands.

Father help me to love and bless those who persecute me.
Knowing that through it all, you will protected me

Lord, when evil comes in like a flood; remind me of Your Word,
which promises that You will never leave me nor forsake me.
You said Father, that You will fight my battles every time -
if I will just believe and have faith in You.
When I become discouraged,
lift mine head above that of my enemy,
as you remind me that you know, hear and see
every evil deed launched against me.
As I wait for and trust You, Lord; please
send the Holy Spirit to give me peace
through my storm.
This prayer I ask in the name of Your Son, Jesus Christ.
Amen
I love You in all things, and above all things.
May I experience the joy
which You have prepared for me
in Heaven.
Nothing is good that is against Your Will,
and all that is good comes from Your Hands.
Place in my heart a desire to please You
and fill my mind with thoughts of Your Love,so that I may grow in Your Wisdom and enjoy Your Peace.
Father help me to love and bless those who persecute me.
Knowing that through it all, you will protected me
under the shadow of Your wings, because You love me.
Lord, when evil comes in like a flood; remind me of Your Word,
which promises that You will never leave me nor forsake me.
You said Father, that You will fight my battles every time -
if I will just believe and have faith in You.
When I become discouraged,
lift mine head above that of my enemy,
as you remind me that you know, hear and see
every evil deed launched against me.
As I wait for and trust You, Lord; please
send the Holy Spirit to give me peace
through my storm.
This prayer I ask in the name of Your Son, Jesus Christ.
Amen

Philippians 4:6-7 || Do Not be Anxious About Anything (10.19.15)
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to GOD. And the peace of GOD, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. - Philippians 4:6-7
Faith Believers,
Sometimes we have to make decisions in life,
and we just don't know the answer.
We don't know where to go.
We can ask everyone we rely upon for advice,
but how do we know that's the best advice for our lives?
The other day I was anxious. I had no clue what to do when faced with a certain situation. I asked others for their input, and I just couldn't come to terms with what the right thing to do, really was. All of a sudden I remembered how it important it is to go to the Lord through the Scriptures and in prayer.
And as I began reading, I came across the verse for today. This verse assures us that when we ask GOD to give us clarification in whatever situation we are facing, He will give us the wisdom to make the right choice. We don't have to worry if He will answer us or not. He even says that He will provide us with His peace!
Dear Lord,
Forgive me for worrying,
when I have such a wise GOD
who will direct my steps when I ask.
Please give me wisdom to know what to do
in each and every life situation that I face.
Amen

Are you anxious wondering what to do? Find comfort in knowing that
if you just ask, GOD will give you the ability to make the right choice.
Take out your Bible and pray. Before you begin reading, ask GOD to direct you to
the best decision for your circumstances.

There is Power in Praise (10.18.15)
This was sent out some time ago but I felt the need to send it out again.
Bless & Be Blessed,
- Marilyn
______________
Faith Believers,
As Christians, we are taught to pray.
Too often, however, those prayers are nothing more than lengthy complaint sessions in which GOD gets an earful of everything that is going wrong in our lives. GOD, we need a bigger house. GOD, I never seem to have enough money to pay my bills. GOD, I hate my job. Sound familiar?
The complaints go up, but little change occurs in our lives.
for what He has already done in your life.
Make a habit of continually praising GOD
for everything in your life,
no matter how small.
GOD will smile upon you.....
And the blessings will flow.

The complaints go up, but little change occurs in our lives.
The Bible says that GOD inhabits the praises of His people (Psalms 22:3).
If you are a complainer, perhaps it is time to turn into a praiser.
GOD loves our praise.
GOD loves to be thanked for the blessings that He has already given. Instead of complaining about the size of your house, why not thank Him that you have a roof over your head? Instead of complaining about not having enough money to pay all of your bills, why not thank Him for being able to pay some of them? Instead of complaining about your job, why not thank GOD that you have a job?

There is Power in Praise.
The Bible is filled with stories of how GOD inhabits the praises of His people. When Jesus was preaching and needed food to feed five thousand people, the disciples brought Jesus 5 loaves of bread and 2 fish, not nearly enough to feed everyone. But just as soon as Jesus raised that food up to Heaven and thanked GOD for it, it multiplied to the extent that there was more than enough to feed the people (Matthew 14: 13-21). In the book of Job, Job lost everything he had, except for his faith in GOD. Through all of it, He continued to trust GOD, saying that everything He had belonged to GOD anyway.
In the end, GOD blessed Job with great abundance
that exceeded what he had in the beginning.

A
modern day analogy, using this principle, is one regarding a parent and
a child. As a parent, are you more likely to give to the child who is
continually thanking you for what he or she already has? Or will you
give to the child who is always complaining that what he or she has is
not enough?
It is a joy to give to someone who is appreciative of a gift.
Matthew 7:11 says “If you, then, though you are evil,
know how to give good gifts to your children,
how much more will your Father in heaven
give good gifts to those who ask Him!”
Let every petition you bring to GOD come with a "thank you" It is a joy to give to someone who is appreciative of a gift.
Matthew 7:11 says “If you, then, though you are evil,
know how to give good gifts to your children,
how much more will your Father in heaven
give good gifts to those who ask Him!”
for what He has already done in your life.
Make a habit of continually praising GOD

God's Call & Gift are Upon Your Life. You Cannot Quit, for There is Work that God has Called You to Do. (10.17.15)
My Child,
I have said it once, and will say unto again, you cannot turn back now.
Your calling and gifting I gave to you are without repentance.
I have not changed My mind about choosing you.
I Am not a man that I can lie,
nor do I make a mistake in whom I call.
I knew this day would come where you would feel like this.
I have come to you now to let you know
that I Am with you in the midst of all your suffering.
You cannot quit because I need you.
Yes, I need you to finish The Work I've called you to do.
Your wounds and pain have been speaking to you.
I know your pain has become intense.
It seems as though it will never quit... And you are ready to throw in the towel.
However, I promise that the pain will be turned into rejoicing. Look at all the pain Moses, Elijah and Joseph endured; and how they wanted to give up, but at that critical moment - I stepped in and I NEVER left them. I was with them in the midst of their suffering. It was I who said ENOUGH, and pulled them out of the fire.
I Am the only One who knows when you are ready to be removed from the fire.
You may feel that you have gone through the fire,
and that you are ready to come out.
You must not come out before your time.
Pray and Trust Me, Beloved.
You are being refined.
I Am the One who will say ENOUGH!! I know when you are ready. Now, I say unto you, be careful that you do not listen to the voice of the enemy, who will seek to discourage you.
This is a critical moment for you. And it would be far easier to turn back and seek a life of ease, than to press your way through to your Blessing and the Kingdom. However, if you do turn back, you would give up all the precious things that I've placed in your life, such as My Calling and My Gifts to you.
If you turn back now who will help My People?
If you turn back now who will set the captives free?
If you turn back now ,and do not give your testimony to others
about how I brought you through, how will they know that I am real?
I say unto you, no man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the Kingdom of GOD. If you turn back, My Spirit will be grieved. Keep your hand to the plough and do not turn back. You have come too far to give up now.
Remember the Vision I gave to you?
Keep this Vision before you,
set your face like flint towards that Vision.
Surely, your reward will come.
I have given you the strength you will need to take your stand against the enemy; and to continue in your calling. You cannot allow the enemy to stop you.
So, I say to you, do not quit, you must never quit.
Do not think of turning back.
Know that I Am the Lord your God, Jehovah.
Nobody and nothing can stand toe to toe with Me.
I have all power, over everything.
I Am GOD, all by myself. There is no other!
I have said it once, and will say unto again, you cannot turn back now.
Your calling and gifting I gave to you are without repentance.
I have not changed My mind about choosing you.
I Am not a man that I can lie,
nor do I make a mistake in whom I call.

that I Am with you in the midst of all your suffering.

Meditate on His Word:

The Act of Stepping Out on Faith & Taking God at His Word (10.16.15)
My Child,
When you come to an impasse, that mountain or the wall that wont seem to move.....
Cry out to Me when you can’t see your way.
Cry out to Me and I will hear your deepest cry.
I will respond.
When you come to an impasse, that mountain or the wall that wont seem to move.....
Cry out to Me when you can’t see your way.
Cry out to Me and I will hear your deepest cry.
I will respond.
I will tell you to walk by
faith, and faith alone.
I will tell you to stop looking at the
situation with your eyes,
and see with the eyes of faith.
And as I Am working to bring things to pass,
I will also ask you to do your part.
I will call you to stand on My Word, and only My Word. Then show Faith in Me, by trusting Me. The act of stepping out and taking Me at My Word, no matter what the situation dictates is extremely important to Me. Because Faith, without Works, is dead. And it is impossible to please Me without having Faith in My Word.
The way forward to your miracle is by having faith in Me.
Remember how I blessed you before when you stood on My Word?
You will never know how trustworthy I Am, unless you
trust Me fully when things seems to be impossible.
The only way to your blessing is to have faith in Me, and Me alone. I Am the Lord your God, your Father. And I only want the best for you. Therefore, I Am asking you to change your way of thinking, and know that I can bring to pass blessings that are "impossible in the eyes of man."
Now, My Child, are you going to take Me at My Word?
I say to you, you haven't seen anything yet.
You can't imagine how I Am going to change your situation.
I Am going to bless you in a mighty way.
If you will just continue to trust in Me,
you will see that mountain move.
You will see that impasse crumble
in the presence of the Lord.
My Child, the only way to your blessings
is by having faith in Me,
and Me alone.
and see with the eyes of faith.

you will see that mountain move.
You will see that impasse crumble
in the presence of the Lord.
My Child, the only way to your blessings
is by having faith in Me,
and Me alone.
Meditate on His Word:
Psalm 91:15 - He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.

Hebrews 10:23 - Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)

It's not Wrong to Hurt or Cry.... Jesus Feels Our Pain. (10.15.15)
Beloveds,
I feel your pain and I know you are hurting.
You aren’t made of stone, you are a person.
It is not wrong to hurt or cry.
I felt pain, hurt and sadness when I walked this earth.
If you remember, I too wept.
If you didn’t feel pain, that would be abnormal.
Feeling pain and being hurt does not reflect a lack of faith.
So, stop being so hard on yourself.
Don’t stress over it.
Learn how to release things, and rest.
Allow Me to work in you, and take away your pain.
Just lean on Me, I won’t allow the hurt to overwhelm you.
Dwell in My presence, for I am here to comfort you.
Allow Me to protect your mind, body, and emotions.
Now, be quiet and hide in the shelter of My arms.
Allow My Peace to overtake your soul.
Be at peace.
Meditate on His Word:
Psalms 91:1-2 - He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
John 11:35 - Jesus wept.
I feel your pain and I know you are hurting.
You aren’t made of stone, you are a person.
It is not wrong to hurt or cry.
I felt pain, hurt and sadness when I walked this earth.
If you remember, I too wept.
If you didn’t feel pain, that would be abnormal.

The Time Is Now. This is the Appointed Time to Release Favor. God's Favor. (10.14.15)

You have not because you ask not.
And when you ask, ask believing that it is already done.
Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.
When ye ask of Me, it is done in Heaven from the moment you ask. Therefore, believe that it is done on earth as it is in Heaven. Believe and do not waver about what you’ve asked of Me. Because from the deepest depths of My Heart, I desire to bless you.
So, do not limit Me with unbelief.

Believe that it is done on earth, as it is in Heaven.
Believe and know that I love you.
Believe that what you have asked for, is already done.
Then walk by faith, not by sight;
and you will see how the things of the Spirit
will unfold on your behalf.
If you stand and believe, with faith, that all things are possible..... Then My Favor will position you in the right place, at the right time, to receive that which you have believed and trusted Me for.
Many souls are being prepared to receive salvation and I need you, child, to be ready to receive them. Therefore, I say 'prepare your heart to receive and be ready for advancement in the Kingdom. For I am calling forth My Church to rise up and be a banner for Me.'
Believe My Child.

I want there to be no lack upon MY Children; therefore share, as I bless you.
Now, ask and it shall be done on earth as it is in Heaven.

James 1:6 -7 - But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.

A Season of Discomfort, Dark Valley Moments & Difficult Growth (10.13.15)
My Child,
There are times I will take you through a short season of difficult growth.
I will open your eyes to see aspects of your life
that you’ve been ignoring, and don’t want to acknowledge.
Then, I will cause you to face these issues so that I can break their power over your life. I allow these things to happen to set you free from the shackles which hold you back; free from that which inhibits you from enjoying the full measure of all that I have for you.

Yes, I allow these seasons of discomfort and dark valley moments to happen. However, I will never leave you there, nor will I leave you alone. I Am always with you, guiding you away from dangers - seen and unseen. It is not My Will for you to stay in the valley forever, I want to bring you into My Presence.
My Will for you, is to bless you and to provide you with an abundant life.
That is what I want you, to expect, from Me.
Now, you have the answer to your question,
“Why me, Lord?”

Meditate on His Word:
Psalm 23:4 - Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Lamentations 3:19-24 - Remembering mine affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the gall. My soul hath them still in remembrance, and is humbled in me. This I recall to my mind,therefore have I hope. It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.
Lamentations 3:23 - They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness. The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.
Lamentations 3:31 - For the Lord will not cast off for ever: But though he cause grief, yet will he have compassion according to the multitude of his mercies. For he doth not afflict willingly nor grieve the children of men.
