​Psalm 23:5 ESV “You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.”
 
Written from Jesus’ perspective:
 
When you feel yourself in the presence of your enemies whether human or spiritual (although even human beings are being impacted by the spiritual also (Ephesians 6:12)) you can have great joy because I am setting a table before you. I am anointing your head with oil. I am causing your cup to overflow.
 
When you do this, you frustrate your enemies because it causes the opposite of what they desire. It’s a great tool to use about anything opposing you.
 
1)Thank Me for it because:
a)I have told you that you will have tribulation, but I have overcome it all (John 16:33).
b)I have told you good will come from every situation for those who love Me and are called by My purpose (Romans 8:28).
2)Bind it in My name and send it away, send it to Me or send it to a place you believe it needs to go.
3)Turn the eyes of your heart to Me. See Me setting a table for you with all that you need, desire, or will be blessed by.
4)Receive My anointing.
5)Thank Me for overflowing your cup.
6)Move on with your day and take a step in the direction I indicate even if it feels hard or scary. This may be seeking Me more deeply to discover the root of the fear or attack. It may be having a hard conversation with someone. It may be taking action in some way physically or it may be prayer or forgiveness. I will show you the way. Follow Me even when it feels like the valley of the shadow…

​Psalm 78:2 NLT “…for I will speak to you in parables. I will teach you hidden lessons from our past.”
 
Written from the Holy Spirit’s perspective
 
Jesus spoke in parables……….and wants you to come to Him to learn what they mean.
I blow as the wind……….and want you to keep your spirit tuned to My presence.
God conceals (Proverbs 25:2)……….and wants you to seek out the mysteries.
 
Why? Why not make it easier?
 
I (the Trinity) put myself in plain sight. I even gave a book clearly written about Me….I give a thread and say “follow Me to the answer”.
 
You value that which you dedicate yourself to.
 
You develop a relationship with Me when you seek Me out and find answers to your questions and the riddles I give you.
 
There is nothing I enjoy more than spending time with you, drawing you near, enjoying your presence and companionship. This is why I created you and created the earth…so I could enjoy a relationship with you.
 
When I give you a thread of understanding but not the full picture, I don’t do it to withhold, I do it to draw you near.
 
When there are mysteries, I reveal them, sometimes quickly and sometimes over time so that we can have something to explore together.
 
When you focus only on the answer and reaching completion you miss the point. The answer and the understanding will never satisfy…but I will.
 
Enjoy seeking – because we get to do it together. Don’t get frustrated by the journey…you are on it with Me and that is what matters….You and Me – together for all eternity starting now.
 
That is the real answer.

Psalm 23:3 ESV “He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.”

I restore your soul. I lead you in the paths of righteousness.
 
Do you feel the power of these statements?
 
I am the one who restores your soul. You are not. Rest in Me!
 
I am the one that leads you in the paths of righteousness. You are not. Follow Me!
 
Lean into Me. Really lean into Me. Do not think about what you will do the rest of your life or where you are going next. Lean into Me. I will show you the next step. I don’t do this to test you or to make life difficult, I do this to glorify My name and for My name’s sake because it is when you lean into Me that the world can see Me.
 
You wonder if you can trust Me fully. You can! Simply trust Me. Don’t question or think about it anymore. This is where miracles happen, when you simply trust.
 
You wonder if I will provide for you. I will. Simply trust me. Don’t question or think about it anymore. This is where miracles happen, when you simply trust.
 
You wonder if I am good. I am. Let go of any thoughts that contradict this. Put them out of you mind – oh yes, I know that you cannot do this. Ask Me to do it for you.
 
I know that it is impossible for human beings to have the faith they need and to trust Me the way I desire – for My name’s sake. But if you are willing to ask, I will do it with you and for you.
 
I know there are so many things that surround you in this day and age that disturb you and cause you to question what I am doing. I know it looks like evil is winning. But know that it is not. It looked like evil was winning the day Jesus died but clearly that is not the case.
 
Psalm 46:10 ESV “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”
 
Don’t try harder.
 
Instead, lean in so deeply that without Me showing up you will fall.
 
What is something in your life that you are unhappy about right now or you want to shift?
 
Consider for a moment that it is not about you. It is about Me and My glory. Let go of needing to do anything at all about it. Sit in the uncomfortableness of knowing that only I am able to bring the fullness and abundance that you want in this area of your life.
 
You see in human history that the more people rely upon themselves, the worse things get and yet people keep trying to fix everything. Lean into Me instead.
 
Do you have a health crisis – lean into Me even more than you are currently.
Do you have a mental health crisis – give Me your brain and your thoughts and let Me think for you.
Do you have a financial problem – ask Me for what you need, and I will provide.
Do you need more time, energy, resources, let Me rearrange your life so that you will be focusing on what I created you to focus on.
 
Your life has gotten deeply focused on things that do not satisfy. Let Me take them away and replace them with what truly matters.
 
You ask, “where is the power in this?” and “why don’t I experience this more?” and I say to you…you have not given yourself over to Me yet. You ask Me to do what you want rather than asking Me what I want. You want to conform to the pattern of this world but I want you to be renewed (Romans 12:1-2). You want Me to take away your pain and suffering but I want to use it to resurrect life (Philippians 3:10-11).
 
As you seek all the fruits of the Spirit (love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23)) ask Me how you can suffer so that you can experience these fruits. I know this sounds strange, but people are so afraid of suffering right now that they don’t know how to suffer for a purpose. They fixate on avoiding suffering so much that it becomes an obsession. There is power in suffering. I know this doesn’t make sense at all but when you exercise a muscle to make it stronger you first have to suffer and then the strength comes into your muscle.
 
Lean into the suffering and find that I will restore your soul and I will lead you on the path of righteousness for My name’s sake.
 
Joy comes when you know that no amount of suffering can take over your life.
Love comes when you have suffered for the ones you love, and you experience them being returned to you.
Peace comes when you have suffered through hardship and found peace that passed understanding (Philippians 4:7).
Patience comes when you have endured so long you don’t think you can handle it anymore and you find patience in the waiting rather than the desire to get out of your situation.
Kindness comes when you find that you can be kind to people even when you don’t feel like it.
Self-control comes when you find that you can rely upon Me to make choices for you when you are unable to make them for yourself.
Goodness comes when you experience evil and darkness all around you and you discover that My light shines through you into that darkness.
Faithfulness comes when you recognize, through suffering, that there is nothing remaining in this world but to trust and have faith in Me.
Gentleness comes when you have suffered at the hand of another and desire so much to protect yourself and yet you let Me have the vengeance (Romans 12:19).
 
Do not walk away from suffering. Lean into it even more and do not ask for it to go away but ask for the fullness of it to be experienced so that you can find the fruits of the Spirit within the suffering.
 
Psalm 23:4 “Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil,
for you are with me”
 
You cannot fully experience My presence with you until you have walked through the valley of the shadow of death and found that you do not need to fear any evil. This is when freedom comes. Not when the difficulty is removed, but when you trust Me so fully in it that you feel My presence when you are surrounded by darkness. That is when you find that the light shining within you overpowers all darkness.
 
Stop trying to find comfort and lean into the suffering. It never goes away in this world. You can ask My why this is when you see Me face to face but right now simply lean into it. The suffering will not overtake you but if you lean into it the fruits of the Spirit will.
 
Lean into the unknown, the uncomfortable, the difficulty. This does not mean I am asking you to stay in a situation that is dangerous or bad for you. I am telling you right now to get out of that situation rather than fear the suffering that will come when you leave it.
 
How many things do you do each day in order to find comfort, ease, and happiness and to avoid suffering. Turn it around. There is so much suffering in the world, it is not like you have to go find it. You are suffering from something even as you read this. I will not bring more into your life if you lean into it. I am telling you that if you lean into it and accept it as part of life and stop trying to fix it or avoid it, you will find freedom from it. This is how I restore your soul and lead you in paths of righteousness and it is how I am glorified throughout all the darkness and sin in the world.

​Jeremiah 31:17 NLT “’There is hope for your future.’ Says the LORD. Your children will come again to their own land.”
 
This verse is written to the Israel exiles in Babylon. They have strayed far from Me and chosen false gods and false prophets, and I am sending a message to them through Jeremiah who I appointed as prophet. They wonder if they have a future or if they are done as a nation and I am telling them to remain hopeful. But I also tell them of the consequence of their own actions…their children will come again to the Lord, but they will not. They rejected Me for so long that I had to exile them from their promised land so that they could experience what it is like to be separated from Me, which is what they desired – they chose gods that are not Me and prophets who did not carry My message and they rejected the prophets who did carry My messages.
 
What am I saying to you this day?
 
Be careful of following gods that are not God and seeking messages from people who do not fully believe in and follow Jesus. Many say they do but they do not believe key things like Jesus as savior.
 
The primary test, though, is whether the messages and “magic” they perform are earth centric or heaven centric. I am bringing a new heaven and a new earth (Revelation 21:1) and they are converging with the old – taking over. The new heaven and ne earth will have qualities more like the Garden of Eden than gardens of this world. If the focus of the messages are on living your best life from the earth’s perspective without concern with anything beyond what you achieve in this life than it is not from Me because I know the plans I have for you (Jeremiah 29:11) and they go far beyond this sort of life you currently experience.
 
If the messages you hear tell of our relationships, how I am involved in your life, being with Me as part of your current life with a sense of something much greater for us beyond physical death – you may pay close attention to them. Choose to hear the message focusing on life as it fits within the plans of heaven rather than life as it fits within the plans of earth.
 
You will find this is the way to enter, now, into the land I have promised you. This is a great mystery, worth your time, energy, and money to explore. A great treasure.

​John 3:16 ESV ““For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.”

Jesus Speaking:
If you continue reading to John 3:17 you will see that I did not come to condemn the world but to save it.

God Speaking:
Notice My main objective here – to show and satisfy My love for humanity. So many view Me as a harsh and judgmental God – wanting suffering and difficulty. They question My motives and My desires but I make it so clear in the Bible.
 
Oh My children, why suffer so greatly…wondering, questioning, doubting, believing half truths and lies about Me…which increases and prolongs the suffering.
 
Believe Me!
 
I love you.
 
Believe Me – the best thing for you to do is to love Me – with all your heart, soul, mind and strength.  This love connection, this impenetrable bond will change everything!
 
Whatever you hear is going wrong in the world…. allow My love to penetrate your fear, anger, and disgust.
 
Whatever atrocity is happening, know that at the very root of it is that they need My love and to love Me. You can’t change their behavior or their beliefs, but you can change your own, and by allowing Me to fully love you and you fully loving Me, you change your small part of the world – and you, in effect, intercede for those around you and in the world. Love is more compelling than hatred!
 
I know you ask – how can loving Me change the world and all the disturbing things happening?
 
Trust Me. It does! Love multiplies and grows. It restores, heals, and refreshes. It moves beyond boundaries and seeps into the cracks and crevasses of our heart, soul, and mind…and it is a powerful force in the Kingdom. So powerful. My love for the world caused Jesus to be brought back to life – not in the same body exactly – it had different properties you can read about in the Bible. Love transforms an average life into an extraordinary one.
 
So let Me love you today as you have never been loved before and let that love build and overflow and love Me back…and then…onto your neighbors (Matthew 22:39).

​Romans 9:18 ESV “So then He has mercy on whomever He wills, and He hardens whomever He wills.”
 
It is really hard for people to believe that I can harden people so that I can show My glory (V22-23) and they hope they are not one of them and yet, when I tell them they are a vessel of mercy (v23) they are resistant because they wonder “why me? What makes me worthy of being better than others or what makes me worthy of God’s mercy”. But don’t you see, in both cases you are resisting Me and My will?
 
You confuse Me and yourself by repeating “thy Kingdom come, Thy Will be done” (Matthew 6:10) and then when I begin to do My will in and through you, you wonder what I am doing or you tell me you are not worthy or, you need to know the eventuality of what I am doing in order to take the first step.
 
This is a hard way to live. A very hard way to live.
 
An easier way is to live in trust of Me – knowing I am good beyond what you could ask or imagine. The pain and suffering you encounter comes, not from the events in life, but from the doubts you have about Me…
 
“Will He show up for my situation?” you ask yourself.
 
“Will He heal me?”
 
“Will He provide for me?”
 
“Is He good?”
 
“Are His promises real? Will He follow through on them?”
 
“Why would He bless me?”
 
“What about that person I know who He is allowing to suffer?”
 
“What about that people group who are starving or in a war torn place.”
 
This is a sinful and terrible way to live! It is so hard to follow Me faithfully and question or doubt Me simultaneously. You will never be able to fully understand My ways (Isaiah 55:8) and  you are not able to understand anyone else’s journey without walking it (John 21:21-22). But it would be better to live as I instruct….seek Me first and all else is cared for (Matthew 6:33)
 
Trust Me with all your heart and don’t lean on your own understanding (Proverbs 3:5).
Know that I will direct your paths (Proverbs 3:6, Proverbs 16:9, Psalm 32:8, Isaiah 30:21).
Rest in Me (Matthew 11:28).
Be still and know I am God (Psalm 46:10).
 
And know, without any doubt, that I am good.
 
Make a choice and lean into it fully – so fully you will fall if My promises are not true – and give Me space to truly show up powerfully in your life.
 
“But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD.” Joshua 24:15 ESV

​Romans 8:12 ISV “Consequently, brothers, we are not—with respect to human nature, that is—under an obligation to live according to human nature.”
 
One of My children loves to say, “if it is in the Bible it has to be possible”. This is such wisdom because, why would I put anything in the Bible that would not be possible. That would be cruel. This brings new light to this verse, talking about human nature.
 
So many of the things I request of you go against human nature. This is where I fit in.
 
You + Me = perfectly living in this world
 
That is the simple solution.
 
In anything you do, you are able to rise above human nature and enter into heavenly nature by simply including Me. Adam and Eve could have done this in the Bible, but human nature took hold of them and they followed their curiosity toward the dark side. It is in every single human being – that curiosity about what is on the other side. It crouches at the door, and you have to be watchful for it. It is compelling and you want to experience it even though you know that it is not good for you to experience it. Some get a taste of the dark side and like the dark power that they believe will come to and stay with them. Little do they realize that the draw of the dark power is for them to wield it but even that is stolen from them by the darkness as they go further and further down the path. Eventually they discover that all has been taken from them. This happened more immediately for Adam and Eve. As soon as they ate the fruit, the experience changed for them, and they realized their nakedness. You live in a world of sin and so your nakedness is before you from the moment you are consciously aware of it and so it is harder for you to differentiate between it but for Adam and Eve it was a stark experience…and one they regretted the moment they did it. The knew the enormity of their sin at that moment.
 
But I knew this would happen, of course I knew it would happen, and I was saddened and disappointed because, even though I knew it would happen, I hoped it would not. It is like when you see a movie more than once and you hope for a different outcome even though you know the story.
 
There is one answer to this desire for the dark side and for living in a way that feels powerful. Invite Me into it and I become the power that you so desire. Submit to Me and to the new creation that you are. Submit to the light and let the darkness fall away. Then you experience Me in a way that is satisfying and complete and we enter into the new creation you became the moment you received the fullness of Jesus into your life.
If you do not feel or experience this fullness, there is still some darkness calling to you, compelling you to listen to it. Ask Me what it is. Seek out My answers and My guidance and I will share it with you. I will make the new creation come to fruition as you let go of the old creation through prayer, supplication, thanksgiving, and working through anything that needs to be worked through.
 
Sell your treasure, buy the treasure that matters. The fullness and freedom you are being offered is worth all of the counseling, prayer ministry, inner healing, deep spiritual work that sometimes feels so strange. Seek out someone who really knows Me and hears Me well and ask them how to find the fullness and freedom they have. Then reward them greatly as they show you the way to true freedom while walking within your human nature.
 
The darkness does not have to prevail. Fight it and know that I am there fighting it with you. You are living in a time when I am asking so many people to heal the old generational sin that has plagued their family for such a long time. You live in a time (as I mentioned yesterday) of childbirth pangs and it is time to lean in and seek the deep healing of the generations, of the land, of your own self.
 
Healing is available.
 
Come to the water and drink freely (verse). Drink of Me and you will desire more lightness, more of Me.
 
Then do everything you can to find that lightness – I will direct you.
 
People on this journey often say they cannot believe how deep they have to go. They often say they have no idea if there is ever an end in sight and they often say how incredibly hard it is…but when they stick with it…the new creation is alive and well and you experience the delights of your heart and break future generations free from all that came before you.
 
It will take years for many who read this now because I am giving you the opportunity to heal not only yourself but also your ancestors…the generational sin that is passed on. I am giving this generation the mandate to heal and I am giving the people to help.
 
It is worth the journey – the freedom is truly incredible.
 
And this is one of the ways that I am bringing the new heaven and earth to this heaven and earth.
 
Of course, satan is resisting – this is why you see such evil in the world right now. The darkness knows that the end is in sight, and they know they have little time remaining. They are fighting like it is the last battle they will be able to fight, and they are ignoring their fate…ah if they would just turn to Me and seek My face – we could talk. But they are too deep into darkness to be able to look at the light any longer and so their fate is sealed. Read Revelation and you will see what happens to them.
 
Don’t let it happen to you! Come to Me and seek My light, My presence, My love. I am your God everlasting and the freedom I offer is exactly what you want! It is better than you ever imagined.
 
Come to Me!
