    “Do you feel the sweetness of My Spirit? Or do you move under the weight of a spirit that sees Me as a strict, unloving God always looking to punish?

    “Be careful before you answer this question. Many of you would say – of course I know you are a Loving God. And yet you allow to remain upon your mind thoughts of how I look askance at you.

    “There is a balance here, My People. Yes, I want you to walk in holiness and purity before Me. Yes, I want you to live out My Will in your life moment by moment. And yes – I do all toward you in Love. Through Love I warn you. Through Love I urge you to keep on My chosen path for you. You do not need to constantly check your every move and thought to see if something displeases Me. I simply call you to REST in Me. As you Rest in Me, you allow Me the freedom to lovingly guide you with My Perfect Hand. And so your thoughts toward Me become thoughts of Trust, not fear of Me and what I will do. If you truly believe I hold only Love for you, there shall be no room within you to doubt Me. To fear Me.

    “Your enemy is cunning. He would take even your desire to please Me and twist it – into fear and anxiety before Me. This is an easy test. Neither fear nor anxiety is ever from Me. These are weapons of your enemy. So cast them off of yourself by the Power of My Blood – and Rest in Me with all Delight and Joy. I will show you places within yourself that require My refining. As you Rest in Me and fully Trust Me, these times of refining will be times of great Joy for you. For you will feel My Love pouring out over you during the refining. You will rejoice and be glad before Me. You will never feel belittled at My Hand. Even when I come to you with great firmness, you will feel My Love within it.

    “Rest in My Joy over you. Again I say REST. Trusting in My Love for you will guide you along your way with Peace and Gratitude. My Voice never makes you feel small or ‘less than.’ My Voice lovingly guides and cherishes you. Believe in this, you who tend to strive before Me, and you shall be set free from much anxiety. Amen.”

    Hebrews 12:5-6: …My son, do not make light of the Lord’s discipline, and do not lose heart when he rebukes you, because the Lord disciplines the one he loves, and he chastens everyone he accepts as his son.

    Matthew 11:28-30: Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

    The Lord reminds us today of two words He has spoken regarding time and His promises to us.

    September 29, 2024: “Do not move. Do not move from where you stand. You stand in ME. Have I given you a promise? Stated what will be? Do you doubt because you have not yet seen it come to pass? Are you the author of My plan? Do you tell the Great I AM how things should be? Do you move the hands of Time? Do you understand what Time is to Me? Not the hands of a clock, a day, year, month. Time to Me is the balance of Judgment and Mercy. How long did YOU need to change your heart and decide to follow Me? Should I have shortened the Time for you?

    “My timing is intricate, with many moving parts. These parts are the hearts of men. My timing requires great patience. Great Faith. Do you trust in the Creator, or do you not?

    “Consider this–an addition to the complexity. Perhaps what you look for in response to a promise of Mine is wrong. So it is not timing that is the problem, but assumption. You need spiritual eyes to see My fulfillment. Your imagination is often too small. My creativity is far above yours. My purposes are far beyond your sights. Spiritual eyes look with Faith to the future. Impatient earthly eyes look to the demand of NOW and one’s own command of HOW. Trust Me. Trust the Creator’s creative thinking. I’ll out-think you every time. This is your Joy, your Delight. For when I come through in ways you never imagined, you will be in awe. Would you choose a Creator God that you could out-think? Trust Me to awe you. That is My Delight. Think on this word: ENCHANTMENT.

    “Hope deferred makes the heart sick. What does this mean? What is the deferred? The fulfillment, or hope itself? True Hope never makes the heart sick. For true Hope knows I will fulfill the promise and trusts in Me. It is only when you set your hope aside and focus on perceived ill timing that your heart becomes sick. My Hope is perfect. My Hope is the ASSURANCE of what is not yet seen. Blessed assurance–this is your gold and your rest. Hope, true Hope transcends time. AMEN.”
    ————
    November 29, 2025: “As I hear your cries to Me, My People, I know your weariness in waiting for the Justice I have promised for the criminal deeds done against your nation. Against Me and My People. Against the leader I have chosen for America at this time. Know that I hear you. Know that My promised Justice IS coming. Remember that My Timing is far more intricate than you can know, for I see ALL, as you see the surface. When you feel weary, when you are tempted to doubt that I will ever show justice in your nation – go back in time. Fix your mind on where your nation was even just one year ago. Two years, three years. Count the evils that have been reversed. Count the things I have done for you in the nation, the prayers I have answered for each of you. Remember My Faithfulness in all of your lives up until this moment – and declare My everlasting Faithfulness in the days ahead. For I do not change. I do not fail to keep My Promises. Set your eyes and hearts on Me. Check your assumptions of My Timing and My solutions. Ask Me for spiritual eyes and ears to perceive what I AM now doing and will do in America.”

    Notes: 

    In the New Testament, the Greek word for hope is elpis, which means not just a wish, as we might use the word hope but an expectation of what is sure/certain.

    Habakkuk 2:3-4: Then the Lord answered me and said, “Record the vision and inscribe it on tablets, that the one who reads it may run. For the vision is yet for the appointed time; It hastens toward the goal and it will not fail. Though it tarries, wait for it; For it will certainly come, it will not delay.”

    Galatians 6:9: Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.

    Psalm 37:7-9: Rest in the Lord and wait patiently for Him; Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way, because of the man who carries out wicked schemes. Cease from anger and forsake wrath; Do not fret; it leads only to evildoing. For evildoers will be cut off, but those who wait for the Lord, they will inherit the land.

    Ecclesiastes 3:11: He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end.

    Isaiah 40:31: But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.

    Isaiah 55:8-9: “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord. “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.”

    Hebrews 10:36: For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God, you may receive what was promised.

    Romans 8:24-25: For in hope we have been saved, but hope that is seen is not hope; for who hopes for what he already sees? But if we hope for what we do not see, through perseverance we wait eagerly for it.

    Hebrews 11:1. Now faith is the certainty of things hoped for, a proof of things not seen.

    “I AM your fortress.

    “I want you to think on this word – fortress. Consider it in military terms, for that is its origin. Fortresses were built for complete protection of an army against an enemy. They were built to be strong, with high walls. They were built with places of lookout for soldiers to see into the distance what may be coming. They were built with heavy doors to be closed and fastened shut. The desire of an enemy was to ‘take the fortress.’ If the fortress was taken – broken into – the army within could be taken. But as long as the fortress held, the soldiers within were safe. The fortress remained constant, unmoving. If a soldier left the fortress to go out into the field, the fortress behind him was of no use to his safety in the moment.

    “I AM your FORTRESS. Do you allow Me to be such in your life? Do you stay within My bounds as I have designed for you? Or do you venture outside, where you are easy prey for your enemy? This is why I tell you again and again to only go where I command you to go. When you go as I command, I AM your living, continuous fortress. But if you step outside of My Will for you, you indeed are easy prey for an attack.

    “And so I ask you to reflect on this: in what parts of your life, even your daily living, do you step outside of My Fortress for you? Are all of your words aligned with Me? Are all of your actions aligned with Me? Your thoughts? Most of all, allow Me, the Lord your God, to be the Fortress around your thoughts. For all words and deeds begin with a thought. Expunge thoughts not of Me immediately – by this I AM able to act as a fortress around your mind. Consider not only sinful thoughts of wrong actions. Consider also sinful thoughts of disbelief in Me. Thoughts of hopelessness, helplessness, weariness. Thoughts of ‘I can’t.’ I AM the God of I CAN. There is no ‘I can’t’ as you abide in My Will for you. For I never call you without fully equipping you. If you ever feel you are in a ‘holding pattern’ in waiting for a ministry or calling I have promised for you – do not fret or be impatient. For I AM preparing you for that calling – and when you are fully ready and equipped, I call you out.

    “I AM YOUR FORTRESS. Meditate on this great promise from the Lord your God. Do not become so familiar with the reading of this word that you no longer take to heart the gravity and fullness of this promise. Amen.”

    Notes:

    II Samuel 22:1-4: And David spoke the words of this song to the Lord in the day that the Lord delivered him from the hand of all his enemies and from the hand of Saul. He said, “The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; My God, my rock, in whom I take refuge,
    My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold and my refuge;
    My savior, You save me from violence. I call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised, and I am saved from my enemies.”

    Psalm 91:1-4: Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” Surely he will save you from the fowler’s snare and from the deadly pestilence. He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.

    Nahum 1:7: The Lord is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble, and He knows those who take refuge in Him.

    II Corinthians 10:3-5: For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh, for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but divinely powerful for the destruction of fortresses. We are destroying speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ…

    Hebrews 13:20-21: Now the God of peace, who brought up from the dead the great Shepherd of the sheep through the blood of the eternal covenant, even Jesus our Lord, equip you in every good thing to do His will, working in us that which is pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen. 

    Philippians 4:13:  I can do all things through Him who strengthens me.

    II Timothy 3:16-17: All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; so that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work. 

    Philippians 1:6: Being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.

    James 1:2-4: Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.

    Psalm 32:8: I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my loving eye on you.

    April 2026

    In light of the events of last night, the Lord led me to these words He spoke about Trump last year shortly before his inauguration. These words are playing out today. Every time President Trump is protected from harm, remember it’s due to our prayers as the Lord’s ekklesia. We are His called out ones who declare God’s will over our nation and the world. Our prayers and declarations, led by the Lord, are more powerful than any scheme of the enemy. The Victory is always ours as we follow the Lord’s leading.

    This word came on January 2, 2025:

    “The end of the road is near. The road you have been walking on in America. A new road lies ahead of you. It is rocky as well. The rockiness does not last. This road leads to peace and prosperity for America – if people choose to follow My will for the nation.

    “For now – I call Mayday, Mayday! Danger lies within for your nation and your President. Evil ones seek to kill him, My chosen leader for America at this time. Some who seek to kill are very near to him. They must be flushed out. Call upon My angels to do so. Pray and declare the protection of President Trump and all those who are with him. And their families. Declare to Me night and day for their safety. Call out to Me to expose the plots and schemes before they can take place. Call to Me for judgment and recompense. Call to Me for discernment for Trump and those loyal to him.

    “You cannot rest, My People, for there is still heavy work to be done. I hold back certain events of My choice as a part in the bigger picture. Only I know the complete timeline of all My joyous plans for America. As you ask for My help in your nation, remember YOUR part in the fight for freedom and holiness in your country. You must stay close by My side and obey Me quickly when I call. Hold nothing back from Me – and I will hold nothing back from you.

    “From ancient times I have planned this, these days. Do not think I am ever surprised or taken aback by the enemy’s attacks. I know ALL, I see ALL. I do not call My People to worry and fret and fear. You are above those things. Those are the world’s reactions. You are not of the world. You fight FOR your world, yet you rise far above it as you fight. Did My Son not say the Kingdom of God is taken by force? YOU are that force. BE it. Be the force to be reckoned with against the enemy’s wiles. Be the force that sends demons running, clears out entire areas and cities and communities from evil, and calls on My Holy Spirit to dwell, protect, and lead.

    “When you feel weary, remember that I specifically called you and fashioned you to be born at this time, during the fight for My Kingdom on earth. Look to Me for power and strength and endurance. I know you far better than you know yourself. I know your capabilities through My Hands, while you may look only at your frailty and tiredness of the moment. Every moment is in My hands and moving toward My Great Picture for the future. Ask Me to infuse energy into your moments, even while you set your eyes far ahead on the prize that lies before you. You work not just for today. You work for the future. Some of the seeds you sow in a moment will not fully grow for years. I challenge you to have eyes to see the little sprouts before you. If you are looking for a large tree when it is still the tiniest sprout, you will miss it. And you may even trample it. DO NOT TRAMPLE MY NEW BEGINNINGS. Ask Me for eyes to see new growth, for wisdom in watering and nurturing, for patience as growth takes place.

    “Arise now. Pray and declare My Truth – and take back your nation of America to once again be a Nation Under God. I will never leave you alone in this. I will guard and guide you. Only obey as I call. And it will be well with your soul.”

    Notes:

    Hebrews 1:14: Are they [angels] not all ministering spirits, sent out to render service for the sake of those who will inherit salvation?

    Isaiah 35:4: Say to those with anxious heart, “Take courage, fear not.
    Behold, your God will come with vengeance; The recompense of God will come, but He will save you.”

    Isaiah 46:9-10: “Remember the former things long past, for I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is no one like Me, declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things which have not been done, saying, ‘My purpose will be established, and I will accomplish all My good pleasure.’”

    Matthew 11:12: “From the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and violent men take it by force.”

    Isaiah 40:29: He gives strength to the weary, and to him who lacks might He increases power.

    Galatians 6:9: Let’s not become discouraged in doing good, for in due time we will reap, if we do not become weary.

    Job 8:7: Though your beginning was insignificant, yet your end will increase greatly.

    Philippians 3:13-14: Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.

    Zechariah 4:10: Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin…

    This word from the Lord came on August 23, 2024–before He called me to start this blog. This timeless word is short but runs very deep. May He give you revelation as you meditate upon it.

    —

    “I would like to tell you that you are loved. That you are cherished. That there is no one like you in your uniqueness. For I fashioned you to be YOU. A unique creation designed to do My Will and hear My Voice. To commune with Me. To bask in My Love and Glory. 

    “When you come to Me and listen, you learn more about yourself. For I know you even better than you know yourself. I designed you. I know every intricate piece and particle of you. As you give all of yourself to Me, I reveal more of who you are. The best you is the YOU who follows My destiny. To stray from My destiny is to lose out on seeing your greatest potential. In Love I bring back those who stray. In Love I even make up for lost time. 

    “Love is gracious and kind and everlasting. I AM Love.”

    —–

    Notes:

    Psalm 139:1-5, 13-16, 23-24: O Lord, You have searched me and known me. You know when I sit down and when I rise up. You understand my thought from afar. You scrutinize my path and my lying down, and are intimately acquainted with all my ways. Even before there is a word on my tongue, behold, O Lord, You know it all. You have enclosed me behind and before, and laid Your hand upon me…For You formed my inward parts. You wove me in my mother’s womb. I will give thanks to You for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are York works, and my soul knows it very well. My frame was not hidden from You when I was made in secret, skillfully wrought in the depths of the earth. Your eyes have seen my unformed substance. And in your book were all written the days that were ordained for me, when as yet there was not one of them…Search me, O God, and know my heart. Try me, and know my anxious thoughts. See if there be any hurtful way in me, and lead me in the everlasting way.

    Ephesians 2:10: For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.

    Ephesians 1:17-19: …that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of Him. I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened, so that you will know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the surpassing greatness of His power toward us who believe…

    Isaiah 46:10: I make known the end from the beginning, from ancient times, what is still to come. I say, “My purpose will stand, and I will do all that I please.”

    Romans 12:2: Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is – his good, pleasing and perfect will.

    Romans 12:1: I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.

    Psalm 138:8: The Lord will accomplish what concerns me. Your lovingkindness, O Lord, is everlasting. Do not forsake the works of Your hands.
