Because I am with you

By

In Beginnings, Daniel, Dreams and callings, Faith, Fear, Freedom, God is with you, I AM, Jeremiah, Jonah, Joseph, Moses

Oh, daughter, where is your faith?

Believe that I am working for you right now.

There is nothing to separate us

Except what you build up.

Don’t you see how you’ve grown since you first believed?

It is belief that’s gotten you there.

And it is faith that will bring you where I have for you.

Yes, where I have for you.

It is a new place, a new task, a new assignment.

A new way for you.

It is what your heart longs for.

It is the freedom you want.

It is the assignment you are designed for.

Don’t be afraid of it.

You will do it because I will help you,

Because I am with you.

How did Moses do it?

How did Jonah and Joseph and Daniel and Jeremiah?

They did it with me.

And you will do it with me,

But only with me.

See Genesis 39:2-5 and 19-23, 41:37-40 and 51-52, 50:14-21; Exodus 3:10-12 and 33:12-17;   Psalm 131; Isaiah 43:1-4, 10-13, and 16-21; Jeremiah 1:4-12 and 17-19; Daniel 6:16-23; Jonah 2; Matthew 14:24-31; Luke 8:22-25; Ephesians 2:8-10; 1 John 5:3-5

In Dreams and callings, God is with you, Listening to God, Rest, Trust, Worry

Trust me, daughter.

Let’s work together.

Let’s rest together.

Trust in all I have for you and

That it is good,

That it is beautiful.

Do not worry.

Do not fret.

Do not analyze.

Do not speculate.

Do not rely on your own thoughts,

Your understanding.

Only trust.

Trust in me, who holds everything,

Including you,

Including your future,

Including your talents,

Including your family,

Including all I have for you.

See Psalm 116:7; Proverbs 3:5-7; Isaiah 40:10-11 and 26-31; Isaiah 41:8-10; Isaiah 42:1-7; Matthew 6:24-34; 1 Corinthians 1:7-9; Ephesians 2:10; Hebrews 10:35-36

In Love, Rest, Worry

Daughter, don’t forget.

Don’t forget how I love you.

Don’t forget how I hold you,

No matter where you are or what you’ve done.

You are safe with me.

You are forgiven.

You are never neglected.

I give you all you need.

I love without reserve.

That love does not include worry.

So put it away.

Put it away, throw it away.

Worry is not from me.

Worry is not what I have for you.

It is a distraction, a thorn.

Let me pull out the thorn and heal your hand.

You need only reach for me,

Not the roses the world extends.

They are soft and bright but full of thorns.

They are deceptive.

I do not deceive.

I only give the rose,

Not the thorn.

See Numbers 23:19; Psalm 131; Isaiah 41:17-24; Matthew 6:24-34; John 14:15-31; Romans 8:1-3 and 35-39; Ephesians 3:18-19; Hebrews 6:16-18; James 1:17-18

Everything

In God is with you, Identity, Letting go, Reliance

Daughter, do you remember how I’ve told you

I can take everything?

Give everything to me.

Don’t hold back.

Don’t believe the lie

That it’s too much for me,

That I can’t help.

Don’t believe the lie

That you’ve made your own way,

That you’ve got it all on your own.

I am with you, daughter.

Always.

There isn’t a moment I’m not with you.

There isn’t a time I don’t cherish you.

There isn’t anything you can do,

Or not do,

To make me love you less,

To change my plans.

Don’t worry.

I’ve still got you.

I’ve still got plans for you.

You are marked as my very own.

I will never leave my own.

I can’t be away from those I love,

Just as you can’t.

See Deuteronomy 7:9, 8, 9:1-6, and 31:8; Matthew 11:28-30 and 28:20; Romans 12:1-2; Ephesians 1:11 and 2:1-10; 1 Peter 5:7

Plant your garden

In Feeling vs. believing, God is with you, God's timing, Jeremiah, Trust, Waiting

Daughter, I’m right here.

I’m right beside you, never to leave.

Your accomplishments will come and go.

Your assignments will change.

But build your home.

Plant your garden.

Don’t waste away on longing.

What you long for is given to you freely.

What you long for has been yours since the day you believed.

Freedom.

Love.

Peace.

Joy.

Rescue.

They’re all yours, right here, right now.

Believe it and you’ll see it.

You might even feel it.

To feel won’t always bring joy,

But to know will.

To know me, to believe me, will.

Believe me.

Come and believe me.

Daughter, I love you. You can believe that.

Find joy

Daughter, have joy where you are.

You only see the misery, the mediocrity.

Find the joy.

I have it there for you.

Right there,

In the middle of pain,

In the middle of disappointment,

In the middle of waiting.

Waiting doesn’t mean you have to wait for joy.

Joy comes with every morning I give you.

Daughter, it’s right there.

You don’t have to look far to find it.

Find me, and you’ll find joy.

Let’s go, daughter.

There is so much for us to do together.

Don’t hold back.

Come with me.

Let me guide you through the steps.

You won’t fall.

Be brave when I tell you to come.

Walk to me, and you’ll know the steps to take.

Walk to me, and you’ll know that going

is resting.

Stop and rest now, child.

Focus on me.

Just me.

I renew you.

You can do today.

And you can do tomorrow.

You can do each step I have for you.

You can move forward with me.

I’ll hold you the whole time.

I’ll love you the whole time.

See Matthew 14:22-33

Take one step

Listen to this week’s word

Daughter, what is coming is great.

Keep moving forward and don’t worry about it.

Come to me every day.

Come to me when you need direction,

Even if it’s just to take one step.

Oh, daughter, I want to be with you in every step.

Wasn’t it so with your own sons?

You never wanted to miss their steps.

You never wanted to leave when they did something new.

You are my beloved.

I don’t want to leave you.

And I won’t.

See Exodus 3:10-12; Deuteronomy 31:6; Psalm 16:7-11; Psalm 116:8-9; Psalm 119:105; Proverbs 3:5-6 and 4:12-13; Jeremiah 10:23; Matthew 28:20; Romans 8:15-18; 2 Corinthians 5:7; Ephesians 2:10; Philippians 4:6-7

You can be an outcast

In In the world, not of it, Trust, Worry

Listen to the this week’s word

Daughter, you’ve grown so much.

I remember that little girl, who didn’t care for such worries,

Who laughed and sang and played.

Bring her back.

Throw off the world’s expectations.

Cast away its murmurings and its dictates.

You can be an outcast.

You belong to me, to the kingdom.

You’ll never belong in the world,

And that’s how I want it.

No one will fully understand what I have for you.

I made it that way so you will need to come to me.

You will help others, but you don’t understand now.

Wasn’t it so with the prophets?

They were close to me, as you will be.

See Jeremiah 1:4-19; Matthew 18:1-4; Luke 12:22-32; John 17:13-19 (Jesus’ prayer to the Father); Romans 8:12-18 and 12:2

Listen to this week’s word

Daughter, your heart is what I love most.

I know what it wants.

I know what excites it, and it is beautiful.

Daughter, you are beautiful.

What you’re doing now, with me, is beautiful.

Doesn’t it feel better?

Doesn’t it make more sense for you to be with me?

It does.

It does because I made you, because I know you.

I know what’s best for you.

I know the right time to take you to something new.

You have to trust me.

Remember that this is your calling.

To trust.

To love.

To know me.

To share it.

To show it.

See I Samuel 16:7; Psalm 23; Psalm 34:18; Psalm 37:3-5 and 23; Psalm 40:1-8; Psalm 51:10 and 16-17; Psalm 139; Proverbs 3:5-6; Jeremiah 17:5-10; Ezekiel 36:22-27; Matthew 22:37-40; John 2:23-25, 3:1-21, and 14; Ephesians 1:18; Philippians 4:6-7
