OVERCOME DISTRACTION: FOCUS AND ENTER IN
5/16/23 OVERCOME DISTRACTION: FOCUS AND ENTER IN
Lord I miss You!
HEARD AND SAW: Fellowship granted. You have access babydoll. Rest assured we are with you. Righteousness. Peace. And joy in the Holy Ghost. These belong to you.
Romans 14:16-17 Let not then your good be evil spoken of: 17 For the kingdom of God is not food and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.
Hardware store. I saw a wench on a screw and nut. To tightened what got loose. To bring confirmation to His Word. We will settle you. Confirmed faith.
Fellowship renewed. A joy to have you with us. Yes its that easy. To seek Him and spend time. You do have access. Focus. Distraction. Overcome this.
AH: Jesus strongly rebuked the demons to be quiet. A time to cast away stones. A time to seek the Lord.
HEARD: He finds you waiting.
EARLY WILL I SEEK YOU: TO WAIT UPON THE LORD
For a season I adopted a feral cat. Amber was a very timid cat at first, but when the food and bed arrived, every morning I would find him waiting and peering through the window at my recliner. I loved his greeting every morning. Just his appearance and expectation gave me joy to give food and water. One day after he died I had a vision of him appearing in our window and heard, Thank you for taking care of me! I was so touched by the fact the Lord would open my eyes and ears to hear Amber’s gratefulness. I know he is waiting for me in heaven with all my other cats! Amber was the very best Word parable of what it is like to show up every day at the Lord’s door, waiting for daily bread. His focus and persistence was pure and unrelenting.
John 6:32-35 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father gives you the true bread from heaven. 33 For the bread of God is he who comes down from heaven, and gives life unto the world. 34 Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread. 35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that comes to me shall never hunger; and he that believes on me shall never thirst.
5/20/23 KEEP YOUR GARDEN WEEDED FROM WORDLY DISTRACTIONS
Fellowship. To seek Me. That’s how. [Lord how do You want me to seek You today?] Obey. Obedience opens and closes doors. You don’t need to know the world. You need to know Me. [Yes Lord I understand.]
I saw a dandelion whose seeds were ready to be spread in the wind. As you uproot them daily, they don’t have a chance to spread. Taking care of the garden of your soul. Saying no closes the door. No weeds. Just lovely things.
A lovely life = Lovely Living.
Philippians 4:8-9 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. 9 Those things, which you have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.
Romans 12:2 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 2 And be not conformed to this world: but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
Another watering hole. That isn’t the point. The point is Me. I am the answer to all your issues. Even your strength. I created you. I can sustain you. Looking for a place to land. Bringing you to a conclusion. How to settle. It’s your focus dear one. Eyes on Me. I am your settling place. Alignment and in order. Confident.
WORD TO PONDER: DISTRACTION
You have a divided heart. Many responsibilities pull and tug and demand your attention. Only one will do. And that is to follow Me.
You have yet to understand what it means to cast your care upon Me. My burden is light and easy when you are yoked with Me. For two oxen at a plow divide the load and neither feel the true weight of the burden. But ensnared by the tangled cares, you have forgotten your resting place; that place where you bring all that divides your time and energy back to Me — allowing Me My place by your side, helping divide your load and partnering with you to get the job done.
Bring your responsibilities back to Me and let us rearrange your priorities. Together we will divide the load and not your heart. Together, in one mind, one purpose, we will get the job done and you will find joy and energy in the process.
“And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things But one thing is needful and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.” (Lu 10:41-42)
WORD TO PONDER: BE STILL TO DE-STRESS AND RESET 3/02/18
Dear one, there are times when your life is laborious due to many responsibilities. It is in those times that your faith in My leading and grace carries you through to completion. When I give you awareness of your need for personal space, it is helpful to take some time off to de-stress and reset.
Always remember that where your treasure is, there is your heart too. I wait for you just as you wait for Me dear one. Come to Papa and spend quiet times with Me. Let Me bath you in My peace, without noise, without distraction. Put your total focus Me and My Word to you. You will tangibly feel what a difference this makes in your daily life.
Ps 46:10 Be still, and know that I am God.
