This word from the Lord came on August 25, 2026.

“I require your Holiness. I require your Holiness in Me. It MUST be in Me. For there is no Holiness without the Great I AM.

“How do you remain Holy? By allowing Me to purify you daily. By presenting every part, every piece, of your life upon My altar and asking Me to refine it – to take away those things that do not please Me and to refine and purify those things that I will give back to you. These include your thoughts, your words, and your deeds. These include your dreams of your future. I plan your future. Your only dream of your future should be of the future I have given you. Therefore look to Me for My plans for you. Do NOT plan your future based on your own earthly desires, your rationally-minded expectations. This world is tainted. The world will taint you and your desires for your future. MY plans for your future are far greater than your own plans could ever be. For I see the end of you. I see what I created you to be. Strong and resilient and miracle-working through My Power. I see you living and being in a way you would not imagine.

“Would you really choose your plans for the future over Mine?

“I compel you, I call you to take a hard look at your plans and expectations for your future. Are these directly from Me? Come, lay all thoughts of your future upon My altar. Lay them down before Me and leave them there. I shall replace your thoughts with My thoughts. And I will say to you – THERE IS NO COMPARISON. To believe that you know more than I is foolishness indeed. To believe that you know more than I is a clear sign of how the world has tainted you, yes even you, My People, who know Me. It is one thing to know Me. It is another to give Me Kingship over every bit of your life – daily. This is the Holiness to which I call you. Come to Me for help in this. REST in Me. REST is your one and only key to this. For you shall never strive your way into My Holiness. Only through your moment-to-moment intimacy with Me, your REST in Me, will you achieve.

“Spoken by the Lord your God, who sees greatness in you, power and miraculous workings in you, more you could ever dream. Amen.”
