“I delight greatly in the Lord; my soul rejoices in my God.  For He has clothed me with garments of salvation and arrayed me in a robe of righteousness as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest and as a bride adorns herself with jewels.” Isaiah 61:10

“My precious One,

you are a vison of pure delight and loveliness to me. It’s my dream to watch you walking out the freedom my Son died to give.

When you pray, I love hearing you mention the Robe of Rightousness, reminding yourself you’re worthy to bow before your Father, the King.  In my presence, no man/woman can stand and live (if sin shrouds them). My righteousness is a requirement.  Unlike the ‘Righteousness” of man, it is flawless and has the power to cover ALL forgiven sin.  My perfection and righteous requirements have been twisted. The enemy has used it make my children feel ‘less than’—but nothing could be further from the truth.  The Father of lies has taken the glory and made it to be a matter of offence, a stumbling block.  Yes, excellence and perfection is my nature and yes, I ask my children to follow me in all my ways.  But, I only require this to be done with my strength.  As my children lean on my strength and submit to my spirit, they tap into my supernatural resources and that which is impossible gets filled with my possibility.  This was always my plan.

Pride is the tool of the enemy.  It blinds my children into believing I am a harsh and cruel Father.  It blinds my children into believing they can do well without my spirit.  Yes, “good” can be done in the flesh, but there is so much missing from righteous works performed in that way. First, the pure joy of my spirit is not able to fill it—the experience is short-lived and falls ‘flat’ compared to what we can create together.  Good works done without me aren’t eternal and much of the satisfaction that results comes from Pride---the very spirit that is set up to destroy my own!

Oh how my heart aches.  It breaks to see my precious ones fall into this sneaky snare that appears “good” but has no eternal value or blessing attached to it.  If my children would spend time in my presence, they would know and earn the difference between “good” performed and motivated by man and the “great” that is God inspired.  Time with me sharpens spiritual discernment between the two.

Many believe the lie that to make a ‘big’ impact, ‘big’ things must be done.  Who defines ‘big’? When man defines it, it is mostly on what can be seen or recognized by other men.  When I define ‘Big’, I see past the superficial and go straight to the heart of what’s most important.

Remember, I am the God who rejoices at finding that one lost sheep, that one lost coin.  What makes little sense to man (and is a great stumbling block) is that I am a God that values, treasures and sees many ‘little’ things as big.  My priorities don’t match earthly proportions or expectations.

Meet with me  and I will show you more precious jewels that are slipping through the cracks; because the world sees no value in them.  Will you search with my eyes?  Will you dare to see the hidden glory that most people miss?  Will you invest in the ‘foolish’—trust me when I say--this is NOT fool’s gold but my precious treasure.

Sit with me.  Soak in my love.  Enjoy my song over you.  Let me water your thirsty spirit so you can blossom like the sweet rose you are.  There is power in my presence.  Revelations you get to share with anyone who listens to you.  Speak, my dear.  Share what you know of me.  Kingdoms of darkness will crash down at the sound of your voice. The ears that hear your laughter will desire to taste and see if I really am THAT GOOD.

I will open doors.  I will lead you to dry and thirsty hearts.  These are lands, grounds to capture back.  I long to bring life—abundance to those who are weary and hopeless.  Those who have mistaken the “Great I am” for the deceiving nature of ‘religion’.

My dear, will you join me and all I see us doing together?  A joyful partnership of revival.  Reviving dead and dry branches that I have NO INTREST in burning or throwing way.  My desire is to give life!  Life that bears much fruit.”
