Fear is rising up in your hearts as you contemplate what you are facing in the days ahead. You run to and fro seeking direction from man but you are not putting your trust in Me. Yes, it is My desire that for you to make preparation for those days, for yourself, your family and for those you will minister to. If you will come to Me I shall give you direction for every area of your preparation, especially in the area of spiritual preparation. As you prepare your hearts in the Spirit, having repented of all sin and received forgiveness you shall feel My peace that passes all understanding descend upon you.
Let us see what My Word proclaims in direction for your lives...
FEAR NOT FOR I HAVE REDEEMED YOU; I HAVE CALLED YOU BY YOUR NAME> YOU ARE MINE. WHEN YOU PASS THROUGH THE WATERS, I WILL BE WITH YOU, AND THROUGH THE RIVERS THEY SHALL NOT OVERFLOW YOU. WHEN YOU WALK THROUGH THE FIRE, YOU SHALL NOT BE BURNED, NOR SHALL THE FLAME SCORCH YOU, FOR I AM THE LORD YOUR GOD. (Isa. 43:1b-3a)
My little ones, this Scripture aptly describes the scenario of what is to come. You shall indeed pass through the waters of turmoil and the fire of tribulation but as you trust in Me with all your hearts I shall protect you and deliver you from harm. You must root out all fear in your hearts for it is not of Me. Indeed you are Mine and I shall care for you.
ARE NOT FIVE SPARROWS SOLD FOR TWO COPPER COINS? AND NOT ONE OF THEM IS FORGOTTEN BEFORE GOD. BUT THE VERY HAIRS OF YOUR HEAD ARE ALL NUMBERED. DO NOT FEAR THEREFORE, YOU ARE OF MORE VALUE THAN MANY SPARROWS. (Matt. 10:31)
O My people, how I love you and desire to shield you from the tribulation of the world. I exhort you to...
TAKE HEED AND BEWARE OF COVETOUSNESS, FOR ONE'S LIFE DOES NOT CONSIST IN THE ABUNDANCE OF THE THINGS HE POSSESSES. (Luke 12:15)
Do not put your trust in anything of the world but trust only in Me. Do not be like the rich man who desired to pull down his barns and build bigger only to find his soul required of him.
SO IS HE WHO LAYS UP TREASURE FOR HIMSELF, AND IS NOT RICH TOWARD GOD. (Luke 12:21
I am grieved to see panic among My people, with thoughts of self preservation.
THEREFORE, I SAY TO YOU, DO NOT WORRY ABOUT YOUR LIFE, WHAT YOU WILL EAT; NOR ABOUT THE BODY, WHAT YOU WILL PUT ON. LIFE IS MORE THAN FOOD, AND THE BODY IS MORE THAN CLOTHING. (Luke 12:22,23)
O My little ones, search the Scriptures and see the many passages where I have promised to care for My own. Do you think that I shall not fulfill the promises I have given you.
AND DO NOT SEEK WHAT YOU SHOULD EAT OR WHAT YOU SHOULD DRINK, NOR HAVE AN ANXIOUS MIND. (Luke 12:29)
BUT SEEK THE KINGDOM OF GOD, AND ALL THESE THINGS SHALL BE ADDED TO YOU. (LUKE 12:31)
A time of great tribulation for the whole world is just over the horizon and I am preparing My people for the greatest time of ministry the world has ever known. Literally multitudes shall be swept into My kingdom even in the midst of troubled times. It is in the midst of trials that hearts are softened toward Me and made ready to receive Me as Savior. Revival shall break forth around the world and I am calling My people to prepare to nurture those who commit their lives to Me. In the midst of the chaos of the world I shall care for My people supernaturally. Go forth, My people, with all fear gone and with boldness to accomplish the tasks I have assigned to each of you. I shall protect you, guide you, and walk beside you wherever you shall go.
