A FUTURE WITH HOPE AND ENCOURAGEMENT

1/01/23 A FUTURE WITH HOPE AND ENCOURAGEMENT

HEARD AND SAW

LOOKING UP WITH HEAD HELD HIGH

A precious child you are. Welcoming a new year. One day at a time. I am protecting you. Courage. I have granted you courage. Facelift. I saw the action of someone taking a chin and lifting it up. Remember, head held high. No shame. Where you really are and where you think you are, are not the same. It’s all about to change. What you went through prepared you. You overcame it. Light. Feather light. Walking without entanglements.

Psalm 24:7 Lift up your heads, O you gates; and be you lifted up, you everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.

FACING THE FUTURE WITH HOPE

Not looking back. The future with hope and encouragement. It’s spread before you. I saw a very long table being spread with a table cloth and being readied for a banquet. The table was outside in the wilderness, which is His refuge for His bride as in the book of Revelations.

Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare: before they spring forth I tell you of them.

TRANSPARENT SHARING

My purposes for you are unique. It’s a lifeline in the making. Reluctant. Did you want to share? [Lord yes I desire Your Word for 2023.] And you shall have it. I saw 4 canisters. Full of love. I have an announcement. The timing is impeccable. Full of love.

CONFIRMATION! Oh my! After typing this in from my recorder, I was reminded that I had intended on buying some more clear canisters for our kitchen counter. I went on line and it took me so long to find the right type and size that I had forgotten that I had heard about it in my rhema. I was shocked when I returned to my rhema and discovered I bought 4 canisters exactly as I had heard!!! Even when He hides things from our memory, it is due to His perfect purposes in our lives. I love even how He hides Himself in plain view and we don’t even realize until His Spirit shines light on it.

Luke 24:30-31 And it came to pass, as he sat to eat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and broke it, and gave to them. 31 And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.

COLOR OF THE YEAR – NAVY BLUE

PARABLES: Today I started a brand new page in my memorial journal for 2023. The first page of the year was navy blue with a print out of the Lord’s Prayer about His kingdom coming. Prophetically, the color blue represents revelation and since this blue is navy blue, it means deeper revelation.

Matthew 6:9-13 After this manner therefore pray: Our Father who is in heaven, hallowed be your name. 10 Your kingdom come. Your will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. 11 Give us this day our daily bread. 12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. 13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For yours is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen.

I needed a tab page for the month and I wanted to match the first page. My stock of blue paper was low so I went into the cupboard to search for more. It was quickened me when a little slip of blue paper fell out that had gold bells on it. I thought it might be a nice décor for the page, so I brought it with me along with the deep navy blue colored paper; I printed out the new calendar and the attached all onto the blue paper. As I was attaching the little golden bells, the Holy Spirit reminded me of the recent Word He gave me about the Caroling of the Bells ringing in the new year. Wow, that was perfect since today is 1/01/23.

I got up to go back to my recliner to put the page into my journal so I could start my morning devotions. The precise moment I sat down, my itouch ringer started ringing. It brought me such joy and amazement at the timing!! Last night I heard the Lord say, The timing is impeccable. And guess what? The ringer sound is the Caroling of the Bells!! SMILE! I absolutely LOVE His unique and precious ways He speaks to each of us. He is involved in every detail of our lives. His confirmations are such delightful road markers in our path that we are walking with Him and on the right path in following His specific Word for us.

Ringing in the new year. I saw hand bells ringing. The changing of the guard. Seasons change. New assignments given. Watchman on the walls. Bringing forth good news. I will equip you.

Isaiah 52:8 Your watchmen shall lift up their voice; with the voice together shall they sing: for they shall see eye to eye, when the LORD shall bring again Zion.

Psalm 130:6 My soul waits for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning.


WORD TO PONDER: OUR BELLS ARE RINGING 1/01/23

Precious ones, My bells are ringing, can you hear them? Heaven celebrates your overcoming of all that you have gone through. Do not listen to the taunts of the enemy over the shakings you have gone through. What you see as failure is really great victory. As you have learned to let go of what shakes inside of you, you have found My unshakable foundation that I built within you. Indeed, heaven rejoices over you My precious ones! Everything I allowed in your past was for your good, to help prepare you for your good future, filled with courage, hope and freedom to walk without the entanglements of the world and your soul. Be free precious children! Walk free!

As you are willing to spend time to sup with Me, even now I am preparing a My table set before you, filled with deep revelations from My Word. I will give to you according to your need and your desire, for your hunger draws Me to you even as My hunger for our fellowship draws you to Me. The closer you walk with Me letting go of the world’s cares, the more you will find its truth.

Would you consider sharing the transparent and clear testimony of your life in Me? I will fulfill My purposes for you. You have a unique purpose, a unique destiny and I watch over every detail as you cling to Me. As you offer your empty cups to Me, I will fill them to overflowing. My love will brim to the top and overflow with My goodness over you and over those whose lives you are called to touch. My double portions of love is going to pour into you dear ones. All that you have spent will be returned in double portion. Face your future with hope, encouragement and love. I am with you each and every step.

Jer 29:11 NLT

For I know the plans I have for you,” says the LORD. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.
