TRUST ME

FROM DEVOTIONAL "WHERE PEACEFUL WATERS FLOW"

PRAYING WITH THE FATHER IN THE MIDNIGHT HOUR

Jeremiah 1:4-12 Then the word of the LORD came unto Me, saying, Before I formed thee in the belly, I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. Then said I, Ah, Lord GOD! Behold, I cannot speak: for I am a child. But the LORD said unto Me, Say not, I am a child: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak. Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the LORD. Then the LORD put forth his hand, and touched My mouth. And the LORD said unto Me, Behold, I have put My words in thy mouth. See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant. Moreover, the word of the LORD came unto Me, saying, Jeremiah, what seest thou? And I said, I see a rod of an almond tree. Then said the LORD unto Me, Thou hast well seen: for I will hasten My word to perform it.


My Precious Child,

Why do you listen to those unkind words? They are not from Me.  Start trusting the gifts that I have given you. Stop doubting yourself. The enemy is trying to convince you that you will fail. He is trying to convince you that you didn't hear My voice. If he can do this, he will have victory over you. Not only will he have the victory over you, but he will rob others that are waiting to be blessed by you. I need you to go forth and bless My people.

I know you may feel insecure, and insignificant, even like a child at times. But believe Me at this very moment you are being delivered of this mindset. I AM going to place you in a position that demands more than you think you have.

I know you already feel like you are being stretched. I AM giving you these challenging assignments to break the confinements caused by your unbelief’s

If I trust you, why can’t you trust yourself? I created you, so don’t you think I know more about you than you do?

Trust Me, you will come through.  

BE OF GOOD COURAGE

I know you how weary you are today, and that you don’t feel like you have the strength to lift your head up.  Ah, and I see what’s on your mind.  Now is not the time to give up.  Now is not the time to feel sorry for yourself and allow despair to have control in your life.  Yes, in the natural things may look too far gone and hopeless.  It isn't.  The seeds that were planted by you years ago, which remained in the dark for the right time of bearing fruit, are coming forth.

Firmly reject any notion you have of unbelief.  It is in the belief quotient where miracles as well as signs and wonders take place.  Many things have failed to take place due to unbelief.  You are not a quitter.  Don't entertain quitting now.  It is critical to have faith to believe for certain matters to happen.  Remain strong in your faith and even grow stronger in this time of darkness so you don’t find yourself on the outside looking in due to doubt and unbelief.

Stand strong, be of good courage and join in with the throng of saints before you and believe.

Jos 1:9  Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.

2 Chr. 15:7 But as for you, be strong and do not give up, for your work will be rewarded." (NIV)

Psa 27:14  Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD. 

WALK ON, DO NO GIVE UP

My Child

I am saying to you today, walk on do not give up!    The road you are on, it is My plan.  I know at times you have felt like you were pushing against a rock, and the temptation has been so strong that you were tempted to just turn around and go with the flow. You wanted to give up a few times and just abandon what you are doing as a bad idea because it was too hard to keep pushing.

You even feel this way right now.  You feel like you just want to drop everything and go down the easier way, and do as everybody else does.  But, you know can’t do that.  You know the journey you’re on is different from their walk.  So walk on, do not give up.

You are walking on the road that I have chosen for you.  You are going through these difficulties because My ways are not the world's ways.  My ways are different and at times they might seem completely strange to you.  But, know that what you have heard Me speak, and the road you have stepped on it is of Me… you have heard correctly.
