TAKE THE LEAP!!

The New Year is upon us!

I hear the Lord calling us to a deeper faith…a stronger faith…a focused faith.

We are being called to take a leap of faith! We are being propelled by the power of the Holy Spirit to leave our “comfort zone” and make a leap into our future!

I see the Lord lifting us up and above those things that would hold us down, The wind of the Holy Spirit will carry us over those places that seem impossible to navigate.

Don’t look down…don’t focus on your ability to make the jump! Look up!! Focus on the Lord and HIS ability!

Get ready!! Focus!! Breathe deeply and let the breath of God fill your lungs!!

TAKE THE LEAP!!

BE STILL

Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth. Psalm 46:10

Sometimes we get so busy doing things for the Lord that we forget to take time and just “sit” in His Presence.

When we still our bodies, our minds, and our spirits and focus only on Him…we begin to feel that sweet Presence that draws around us like a cloak of Love.

In our stillness, we can feel God moving in us and around us. We can tune out all of the “noise” of the world and hear that soft whisper flowing in our minds. Peace that passes all understanding begins to settle upon us. Strength that seemed to be gone begins to rise up in us. The guidance that we have been searching for begins to unfold.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh…can you sense His Presence, Beloved of God? He is drawing us closer and closer to His Heart.

He wants to be as close to us as the next breath. He IS our breath! Breathe Him in all who are weary…breathe Him in all who are ill…breathe Him in all who feel lost.

He is so ready and willing to BE all that He has promised us He would be in our lives. He is so ready and willing to DO all that He has said He would do in our lives.

May we BE STILL and draw near to Him. He has promised that He will then draw near to us.

The time is now!! He WILL be exalted among the nations and He WILL be exalted in the earth!

May we choose this day to exalt Him within our “temples”…our body, soul, and spirits.

Be still and KNOW that HE IS GOD!!!!!!!!!!

BREATHE!

[I hear the Lord saying…]

BREATHE!

Many of you take in just enough air to keep moving.  It’s called shallow breathing.  I don’t want you to just take in enough air to keep moving! I don’t want you to live shallow lives.  I want you to live life to the fullest.  I want you to live the abundant life I have given you to live!

I don’t want you to just receive enough of Me to keep moving.  I want you to consciously drink in my rivers of Living Water!  I don’t want you to just tread water…but I want you to launch out into the deep!

Beloved, breathe in My goodness; My faithfulness; My strength; My love!  Don’t just take shallow, little breaths…but breathe deeply of Me!  The air of My presence is ready to fill every chamber of your heart, soul, and spirit.

BREATHE, My Beloved, BREATHE!!
