“Yes, I am the vine; you are the branches. Those who remain in me, and I in them, will produce much fruit. For apart from me you can do nothing. Anyone who does not remain in me is thrown away like a useless branch and withers. Such branches are gathered into a pile to be burned. But if you remain in me and my words remain in you, you may ask for anything you want, and it will be granted!” John 15:5-7 NLT
FIND ME IN THE SECRET PLACE
Today I heard the Lord saying, “My Bride! There is an invitation in this hour to draw near to Me and to abide in Me! I am drawing you back to the secret place. Come away with Me! Truly, you are living in unprecedented times. The new is here and you will find that many things that once worked in the past may not work the same now in the present. Your biggest asset will be staying close to Me, hearing My voice, and following the leading of My spirit in all situations. In this time, many things are not as they seem. Ask Me for wisdom and it will be granted, for I give bountifully to all who ask of Me,” says the Lord. “I withhold nothing from you!”
If you need wisdom, ask our generous God, and he will give it to you. He will not rebuke you for asking. James 1:5 NLT
EMBRACE WHAT I AM SPEAKING TO YOU
“Stay close to Me, My bride! Lean in! Press in, for the hour is urgent! Stay connected to Me! Lay down that which I am calling you to lay down. Be obedient! As you take the first step of faith, more will open up before you! Let My spirit be your guide in all things. Strengthen your discernment in this hour so that you will truly know what is good and what is evil. Some doors that close before you are the hand of My protection. Do not resist it. Rather, embrace the new and the unknown, for I am your Good Shepherd. I will lead you where to go as you stay close to Me.“
“Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, “This is the way; walk in it.” Isaiah 30:21 NIV
REMAIN FAITHFUL
“I am trustworthy to keep what you have committed to Me. Continue to posture your heart in trust and surrender before Me and remain faithful to steward well what I have entrusted to you. Be kingdom minded and be about your Father’s business. Do not become entangled with the cares of this life! Seek Me first and the rest will fall into place! I will bring order from the chaos, I will make the crooked places straight, and I will make the rough places smooth again!”
“I will go before you, and I will level the mountains; the gates of bronze I will break apart, and the bars of iron I will cut through. Isaiah 45:2 BLB
MY FAVOR IS UPON YOU
“Nothing is impossible for Me,” says the Lord! Ask BIG of Me! Come boldly before My throne of grace, for you have found favor in My sight! You may have been rejected by man, but I do not reject you! When men have made false assumptions about you by looking at your outward appearance, I the Lord, sees your true heart!“
“When a man’s ways please the LORD, he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.” Proverbs 16:7 ESV
OCCUPY
I am calling you to occupy in this hour, My bride! Do not dim the light inside you! Do not remain in spaces that you have outgrown! Truly, I am bringing you out of a tight space so that I can lead you into a wide open space! No longer shall you be confined or held back,” says the Lord! “I am enlarging you, I am increasing your territory, and I am increasing your influence! Walk forward in boldness and confidence, for you will spread out to the right and to the left. It will be for you as it was in the days of Joseph. Even in a season of drought around you, I will cause everything you place your hand upon to prosper, for you have found favor with Me,” says the Lord of the harvest!
“Enlarge the site of your tent, stretch out the curtains of your dwellings, do not hold back. Lengthen your ropes and drive your stakes in deep.” Isaiah 54:2 BSB
