Ears to Hear (Part 13)

Good Morning, 
  
Transitioning takes acclimating to the climate or the temperature of the Spirit of God.  A great example is our temperature in Virginia this week alone.  One day our temperature was 40 degrees and two days later it was 65 degrees, that takes quick transitioning.  You can imagine what was going on in my house, I was switching the heat on one day and the air the next.  It revealed to me that sometimes as we go through transition,we may not be as quick to adapt to our changes.  Also, we may not have the time we feel is needed to acclimate to the changes.  This is why it is of the utmost importance, to learn to truly trust God, leaning our whole person over on Him.  He knows how to get us there at the right time and the right way!  This is also why God has been calling us to draw closer to Him, He knows the way.  He has already ordered the steps to get us to our divine position.  The more we trust by leaning on God, the easier it becomes to be led by Him.  Most of us go kicking, screaming, whining and complaining.  We are like children in the back seat of the car, on the way to the amusement park, constantly crying, "Are we there yet?"  Or, like when you are out grocery shopping, and you know the line we hear, "Are we through yet?"  Every thing that you are doing, usually is to make your children's life better or more enjoyable, right?  It makes you want to leave the grocery store and let them go hungry. Yes and turn the car around and go home and let them miss out on their fun-filled day.  Yet, most of the time we were not moved by our children's attitudes. Why?  Mainly, it was because we knew the steps it would take to get them food to eat, and we knew how long it would take to get to our destination.  We taught them to be patient and trusting. We, the parents would take care of them. They, the children did not understand everything that was involved in meeting their needs or giving them their desires.  Now we are in the back seat again! Daddy knows what is right for us. Psalm 37: 23,24 speaks clearly of this kind of trust, listen; "The steps of a good man are ordered {directed and established} by the Lord: He delights in every detail of their lives.  Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down, for the Lord grasps his hand in support and upholds him." Even if we miss the steps, if our heart is pure and we really want to please 'Daddy', He will hold us up. "You {God} have given plenty of room for my steps under me, that my feet would not slip." ( Psalms 18:36)
  I am trusting God to lead me to the place of rest as I transition.  Aren't you?  He really is our only real hope.  He will not let you down.  He says, "Even though you may be walking through the darkest, sunless valley of the shadow of death, do not fear.  I, even I, am there to lead and guide you.  I will not leave you.  Lean on Me and I will hold you in my hands.  You will come out into the sunshine that I have prepared you for.  I will bring you to your safe haven.  You will overcome this too, and grow stronger and be more determined than ever to trust Me.  You will come to understand and know that I really know, what the best way is for you.  I know that at times you don't believe I have your best interest in My heart.  You think I have closed My ears to your cries, because it is not the way you would choose.  You are the apple of my eye, trust Me!  I can see farther than you, I know everything concerning you.  Your future is far greater than you can imagine.  If you let Me I can make your life so sweet, you will pinch yourself to make sure that it is you living it.  Will you really trust Me?  Everyday I'm bringing you closer to the end of this place that you are in.  I hear you, I care for you.  You are not by yourself.  I am turning things around and straightening out the crooked places in you as well as in your living.  I can be trusted with every detail of your life.  I am your Father, and I am dependable.  Most of all, my beloved, I love you more, so much more than you love yourself. Stop running around to everyone and everything else, come up and rest in My arms.  Take a deep breath and rest in Me.  Fix your gaze on Me.  I truly am trustworthy.  Come on, run to Me, I will be your resting place." 
  Well, I must go and dry my eyes now.  That was personal, I hope He is speaking to you also. Change, transition, and shifting will come, but we must really learn to trust God.  I know, I will meditate on this spoken word.  I will learn to wait and see what the Lord is saying to me.  Give to me 'ears to hear', Lord.

Yes! Yes! Yes! Be it unto me according to your word. I realize especially at this stage in my life that I have no other choice but to trust God. It's like I'm going back to the beginning when I was a baby in the Lord and if God told me something I didnt' think twice about it, I didn't doubt him in any way I just beleived what he said. I'm so thankful that he's bringing me back to that place. So now I'll do just that ONLY BELIEVE!!!!!!! I will Stand still and see the salvation of the Lord.

Be it unto me too! Yes it's like the beginning when I first got saved too. I just believe, just trust, just love him! He's manifesting himself to me more and more everyday!

Now I told myself I was not going to cry no more and look what you made me do. Thank you for this Word. Have you ever had to keep telling yourself it has got to be better than this and that there is more than this. I know this and believe this with EVERY part of my being that there has to be more after all I have been thru in my life that there has got to be something extraordinary to still make me want to stay on this earth. Even that is a struggle everyday of not wanting to be here and JUST GO HOME.

Thank you.

All I can say is…WOW! It brought me to tears and it really blessed my soul. God is so good, my day is so much better now. I’ve been fasting all week and at the end of the week, God sends me a word! Words can’t even describe how I feel right now!

Thank you Lord !!!!

An extremely challenging event took place on Thursday, November the 6th ... the day before this word was published.
Only my Father above knows how comforting and encouraging this prophetic word is to me and my mother at this time.
My love and blessings to you, Pastor D.
