3Jn 1:2 "Beloved [fig., Dear friend],
concerning all [things] I am praying [or, wishing][for] you to be having things going well and to be having good health, just as your soul is doing
well." (ALT)
I call you child, or little one, because you must grow in knowledge of Me. I am teaching you much, but the classroom is
not excused until you reach heaven and dwell with Me for all time. My blessings of this wonderful Scriptural passage is based
on the success of your soul growth, not on physical confines and limitations. All things in your life will be met with great
success when you realize the ways of the Kingdom and walk in obedience to My will for you as you grow to resemble Me.
Little one, it is my deep longing to give you the keys of the Kingdom that you might minister in confidence and in power.
I want you to display fullness of life in Me so that others might so desire Me through you. I want you to prosper because
when you do, the Gospel shall prosper and go throughout the world.
Child, I want you to know My deep abiding love so that others may come to you and be assured of My reality, and My love
and My will to do good to them as I do to you. You must take limitations off of Me. I AM. That is a complete summary of Me--I
AM. In Me, nothing is impossible for you. You are My beloved and as you return this love to Me, you will find much ease in
growing to resemble Me, and to telling others of Me. You will be a great witness someday if you will continue to meet with
Me in these alone times and let Me teach you.
I am giving you success without limit as you learn not to limit Me. Go forth with My grace and be all that I envision you
to be, lovely child. And do not forget our conversation that we had today. Grow up in Me and be blessed. I love you like
no other. Desire a close walk with Me.
Precious child, you want new life and yet you will not come to Me to receive it.
I desire for you to embark on newness and fullness of life, an exciting adventure that has no end. Will you come apart with
Me?
"How is that, Lord", I hear you already ask in your heart, with questioning, before
I even tell you the path. Hush now, sweet child of mine, and listen with rapture as I explain to you. Your new birth comes
from the living Word. I am the Word. The Scriptures are Living Water. You must come daily to receive this Life in me. You
do not open your Bible because you believe it too complex for you. Your attention wanders and you seek to be entertained in
other places, from other authors, but do yet not yet grasp that I am the Author and the Finisher of your faith? How can I
build you up unless you come often to Me for your map and marching orders? It is all there in the Word. It is how I long to
talk with you daily so that you may become familiar with Me. I am already familiar with you. Can't you see that? Can you pay
Me the common courtesy of getting to know Me, intimately?
Your life is not flesh and blood. It is Spirit. It was not created by parent, but
by the Creator. Only I can nurture this area if you come to Me. Grasp how you would feel if a loved one would not meet with
you when you had great needs. Soon that relationship would fade. Don't let this happen with us, beloved. I long to reveal
My intimate self to you so that you might walk in knowledge and power. Can you excuse me for pleading with you? I want
familiarity between us and I am prepared to give that to you. Will you come apart for awhile as I teach you? I am envisioning
a beautiful you. Will you come apart with Me? I love you like no other.
My dear one, I have no other such as you. You are unique. You are one of a kind.
Your talents and gifts from Me were chosen with great care and with sacrifice. Eph 4:7-8 "But to each one of us was given grace according to the measure of the free gift of Christ.
For this reason, He [or, it] says, "When He
ascended on high, He led captive a group of captives and gave gifts to people." [Psalm 68:18] Now this, "He ascended," what is it [fig., what does it mean] except that He also descended first into the lower parts of the earth?"
I descended into the place of hell for you. Do you comprehend that? I did
that for you so that when I ascended to My home in heaven to reign, I could give gifts to you. Gifts that are to be used
for My glory. Gifts that will be recognized by others so that they might glorify Me. Gifts that you may not yet even recognize
as My sacrifice for you.
Will you ponder this? Will you acknowledge this? O, My little one, bring Me joy
by displaying your gifts. Bring Me joy by acknowledging that you are My dear one and I love you without condition. Fully.
Completely. I planned for you before birth. Before you were a thought. Before you took your first breath. I am excited for
you to acknowledge your gifts and talents. Please Me, child, like no other. Use what I have given unto you and you will receive
abundantly more than you can conceive or ask for, in Me. Go with grace now and rejoice in what I chose for you with sacrifice.
I bore that brutal beating and shameful death on the cross for your freedom, My
beloved. I desire that you take that knowledge, that descriptive passage in My Word, and apply it to what hinders you from
walking in My highest will and in the fullness of the Spirit. It is by understanding and applying My shed blood that you will
have the release that you long for.
I have no bounds. I am not hindered by your past. Your failures are all not only
forgiven, but forgotten. I have removed those sins as far as the east is from the west. I long for you to experience forgiveness
from God the Father so that you do not fall into guilt and condemnation from the evil one. It is he that torments you as you
unknowingly give him permission to do so.
It was God the Father's will to crush Me with suffering, but it is not My will
to do that to you. It is My will that you realize your blessed inheritance and walk in victory.
Precious one, I have set you free. I have redeemed you. I want you to know Me,
not just about Me. The healing you are in search for is here in the now. Isa 53:5-9 "He was wounded for our rebellious acts. He was crushed for our sins. He was punished so
that we could have peace, and we received healing from his wounds. We have all strayed like sheep. Each one of us has
turned to go his own way, and the LORD has laid all our sins on him. He was abused and punished, but he didn't open
his mouth. He was led like a lamb to the slaughter. He was like a sheep that is silent when its wool is cut off. He didn't
open his mouth. He was arrested, taken away, and judged. Who would have thought that he would be removed from the world? He
was killed because of my people's rebellion. He was placed in a tomb with the wicked. He was put there with the rich when
he died, although he had done nothing violent and had never spoken a lie."
Learn this well: My last words were, "It is finished." Your healing is complete.
Receive it, My little one. Peace be yours. Arise!
You restrict My love, little one, to only the world in general, and not to you individually.
You are My child and My love for you sent Me to the cross. Yes, for the world indeed, but for you, my beloved, I would have
gone for that alone. You restrict Me when You spread Me thin and do not cover your individuality with My love.
I know many harsh and intolerable things have caused you to think this way. I know of your hurts
from childhood onward. But these were not meant to give you excuse to not understand and grasp the passion I have for just
you. I want you to be willing to draw near to Me that I might display My love freely to you, without restriction. That I might
flood you with agape love which you have not really experienced personally. Yes, you know of the value of that word
agape that only refers to Me, your Lord, but I desire to have your innermost being receive it, not from the head upward, but
fixed within the center of your being.
Let me recreate in you what has been lost early in your life--awareness of My great love and
application of it upon you. Trust Me fully as I make you willing to accept My love for you. That will bring you the joy unspeakable
that you crave, and that will remove the undesired state you now dwell in. As always, I plead, come unto Me. This is My will
for you and it is necessary. You must receive this love before this flows on to the others you desire to reach for Me.
Be My vessel, but be filled first, for I love you like no other.
It is not often that you quiet yourself that I might whisper to you endearments. I know the stress and pressures in your
life and I know that no one understnds why that is so. I know and I understand. It is to drive you to Me for these quiet times
where I can not only refresh you, but make you a mirrored reflection of Me.
You must come more often. Come apart with Me. Let the to and fro go in your life as you seek to be with
Me more often. Just rest and reflect in My Presence. Just be yourself for I accept you fully as you are. And I envision who
you will become. It is more lovely and beautiful than you can imagine so come often that I might hold that mirror up for you
to see.
Others do not see you as I see you. You yet do not see so you must come to Me so that I can tell you of all the beauty
and meekness you possess when you walk in Me and endeavor to be like Me. I speak only the Truth so come unto Me
and lay your head upon my breast as I soothe your weary brow and remove the stain of sin from you. You are already glowing
after only a few moments in My Presence. Can you imagine the breathtaking joy of being with Me for longer stretches of time?
I want the best for You and I interceed on your behalf to receive it, My beloved. Let My peace flow in you and one day
it will not but begin to flow out to others. Be with me often, My little, one for I love you dearly, yesterday, today
and forevermore.
Joh 7:38 "The one believing [or, trusting] in Me, just as the Scripture said, 'Out of his belly [or, innermost being]
will flow rivers of living water."
