I have been spending time recently in Nehemiah and just as of yesterday, the book of Esther. I have been praying on what the Lord is showing me in these but last night He gave to me Psalms 73, 75, 86 and 92 specifically. He is desiring more time from His people.
When I was in these Psalms (listed below) He called me to prayer and began speaking to me that we only need to be fearing Him, in that, we need to be in His ways, paying Him reverence and reflecting on His greatness in addition to believing Him for His ability to protect us -not having any need to fear of those who desire to bring us harm. We only need to look to Jesus. We need to be seeking Him and not looking to our own ways which are prone to failure and only allowing for our own understanding but not the wisdom He desires for us that only He is able to provide.
If you stop and think of about it, He really isn’t asking much of us -just more of our time and less in a world that is rapidly changing.
The Lord is filled with much power and Glory and we all need to have deep reverence for His greatness, reflect on this daily and be more active in our daily worship. Psalms are a great place to start where it comes to daily reflection (I personally find them comforting before going to bed but really, they are fitting any time) because they can teach you how to worship and what to be reflecting on and keeping in our hearts and minds of His glory.
‘My people need only have fear of me if they understand that I am the cornerstone between them and The Father in what comes. I will be a shield to those who reverence Me and walk in My ways but there must be no delay in choosing whom they serve. Do you serve me or the ideals, the idols of the world which cannot save you? Focus on Me My people. I will remove the veil of deception. Reflect on all the blessings I have given unto you. Think on all I have ordained in the world you live and that I made the heavens and the earth. Think on my mighty power. Think on the sacrifices I made for you that you may be forgiven, that I may teach you. All I desire is your calling on Me -your time spent with Me. I desire your whole heart. If you will call on Me I will answer. The situations you encounter may seem impossible but if you know Me you will understand everything is possible that you thought not. Seek Me and You will find My forgiveness, My protection, My provisions. Reverence Me and you will be blessed for I will be a light unto thy path. Do not wait My people for an event approaches that will present many inconveniences. Those who are walking with Me shall endure for I shall lead them. I will deliver them from betrayal for if they shall believe how I led My people in times past they shall know how I will deliver them now. I will rescue those who belong to Me.’
It is up to each of us to commit the time to Him each day that He deserves given all that He does and provides for us.
He may have me start on one writing but pause it to do another as I will write what He leads me to but this one I felt was important to get out there what He is communicating to all of us. I felt in my spirit between last night and this morning, a very strong urgency He needed me to communicate this. It was very strong. My friends, as you know, we are living in very uncertain times indeed so please heed His warning on this. His desire is to help us, not harm us. We should be spending time with Him daily drawing nearer anyway, but this along with putting on the proper clothing takes precedence over anything the world offers. Please take it seriously. Note, He did not specify the ‘event’ and I have been shown a few but all one would need to do is look carefully at Matthew 24 and Revelation 8, 9, 13.
Jesus told us what to look for so we need to keep an eye on that fig tree but keep our focus moreso on Jesus!
May Jesus Bless you all. Thank you for reading.
Verses pertaining to the above;
Colossians 1: 10-11 (KJV)
10 That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God; 11 Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness; 12 Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: 13 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: 14 In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins: 15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: 16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: 17 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
Deuteronomy 31:8 (KJV)
8 And the LORD, he it is that doth go before thee; he will be with thee, he will not fail thee, neither forsake thee: fear not, neither be dismayed.

6 Therefore it is also contained in the Scripture,
“Behold, I lay in Zion
A chief cornerstone, elect, precious,
And he who believes on Him will by no means be put to shame.”
7 Therefore, to you who believe, He is precious; but to those who are disobedient,
“The stone which the builders rejected
Has become the chief cornerstone,”
8 and
“A stone of stumbling
And a rock of offense.”
They stumble, being disobedient to the word, to which they also were appointed.

There is no want to those who fear Him.

And delivers them out of all their troubles.

And none of those who trust in Him shall be condemned.

7 It is God alone who judges; he decides who will rise and who will fall.

7 I will call to you whenever I’m in trouble, and you will answer me.
8 No pagan god is like you, O Lord. None can do what you do!

Romans 8: 37-39 (NLT)
37 No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us.
38 And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. 39 No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.
