Time Released Blessings

 I asked the Lord where home is for me. I have been so homesick recently. I'm tired of moving and relocating and being in flux. 

The Lord described for me my home in Heaven with  details that brought tears. Certain decor, certain comforts, and a bunch of specific emotions I associate with home. I feel the sadness of not being able to step out of this reality and in to that promise. The Lord told me that knowing the truth is the important part. I find it hard to persevere living in Europe. I'm not a huge fan of being and ex-pat. I want to be in my home country or even home state. So I struggle to see how I can help others as they move and relocate and seek God. If I struggle to keep my feet under me, how can I successfully aid anyone else. So knowing the truth, that heaven is my home has to cause a shift.

The Lord said to take my eyes off of the future with struggle and hardship of moves and world chaos and put my eyes on heaven. And then he showed me a beautiful vision. 

He promised that blessing are already prepared and packed in my store house waiting to be released and spill out over me and my family. He called them time-release blessings.  Something that I can count on, expect and take joy in as I watch them appear again and again.

Anticipation of something good is such a good perspective. No matter what happened yesterday, I want to live in expectation of blessing today. I don't want to fail to see his blessings because I failed to watch for them! All day long I am in danger of receiving a fantastic gift! What a way to live!

Home isn't here and leaving Europe and moving again looks tiring. The Lord told me not to anticipate the hardship and the weariness of coping but in stead to anticipate his gifts that are greater than the hardship and greater than the weariness.

Faith to Overcome - There is God who fights for you!

 There is a deep need to refute wrong descriptions of perseverance - enduring toward a goal. Perseverance is not the same as digging in with your claws and holding on until a tough situation is over. It's not about fighting tooth and nail. Believers need to know that the only thing that holds on with their claws are demons. This is not right thinking for Christians and not where believers stand in the Kingdom. Look up dear one! This is not your standing in respect to the Kingdom of Heaven and the God-head. The trinity does not expect us to hang on by our nails. So if you are digging into the trenches and trying to hold out, perhaps its time to look around in the spirit a bit. Let me use my seer eyes. First, demons are small. They like to puff themselves up and look huge and intimidating. The more you see them for what they really are and stand in your authority of who you are in Jesus Christ the smaller they get.  Trench warfare is a feeling. It's like attack from all sides and

Wear Your Garment of Joy in Battle

Image
 I heard the spirit of the Lord say, "There are not two garments. Your heart status dictates your garment. As if the wilderness of waiting, battle and training requires torn and battered garments and for some reason your expectation is that you can't trade it for a joy garment until the end." There is something about battle in the spirit and living peacefully in the natural that feels like double mindedness. It's hard some days to live here in the natural and still be a seer. I long for home. I long for Heaven because the Kingdom of God makes sense to me, body, mind, soul and spirit. I want to challenge that thought process though. I am not of two minds. I can war and I can have joy and it doesn't have to be a wrestling match to do both together. I don't have to change up my gear to be prepped for worship in clean shiny spiritual robes and switch to battle fatigues to do the business of Heaven. I feel my soul cry out to step up higher. I long for a place that

Don't Quit! The Holy Spirit is cheering you on!

 A very raw piece to share and some hard truths from the Lord. There is pain in the crossing over. January washed in like a hurricane. My soul bleeds. I see very clearly. Every dream and vision goes one of two ways - I feel numb and shut down or instant travail. The doorway is so close and one toe is always over the threshold. Daily I hear, almost on repeat, the Holy Spirit whispering,  "Well done. Keep going. I've got your back. Don't quit." I admit it makes all the difference. I learned a long time ago to hold my tongue. I'm not sure I'll ever be able to keep my face still, but in the last 2 years since lockdowns changed the face of the world, literally, I've found the place to pause and listen. If I try I can do it all day long, and I keep hearing the comforter cheer me on. I know the Lord is cheering you on too! "Keep loving them. Don't give up. Don't quit. I've got you." I dreamed of a silo. It reminded me of a giant bird feeder
