Today’s Reading:
Luke 1
Luke 6
““You’ll never find choice fruit hanging on a bad, unhealthy tree. And rotten fruit doesn’t hang on a good, healthy tree. Every tree will be revealed by the quality of fruit that it produces. You will never pick figs or grapes from thorn trees. People are known in this same way. Out of the virtue stored in their hearts, good and upright people will produce good fruit. Likewise, out of the evil hidden in their hearts, evil ones will produce what is evil. For the overflow of what has been stored in your heart will be seen by your fruit and will be heard in your words.”
Luke 6:43-45 TPT
The Spirit of the Living God says,
You haven’t scratched the surface of My glory, of My goodness, of My light. Watch as I reveal more of Myself, more of My glory, more of My light from within your very own life. From the overflow of your heart, the mouth speaks. Isn’t that prophecy? Isn’t that allowing My Spirit to flow gently or mightily or powerfully from your heart out through your mouth? That’s what I desire for you — that your heart would so overflow with My Spirit, with the uncontained expectation of My goodness, My reality, My real tangible presence that you speak it. As you prophesy from the deepest parts of your heart, as you allow My Spirit to flow and speak freely from down deep in your belly, down deep in your soul, new life will begin to spring up around you. What is dark and gray and dying will be revived with new life. This is what your words do. This is what it is to speak My words through your heart and then your mouth. That is the act of creation and regeneration.
“And Mary sang this song: “My soul is ecstatic, overflowing with praises to God! My spirit bursts with joy over my life-giving God! For he set his tender gaze upon me, his lowly servant girl. And from here on, everyone will know that I have been favored and blessed. The Mighty One has worked a mighty miracle for me; holy is his name! Mercy kisses all who fear him, from one generation to the next. Mighty power flows from him to scatter all those who walk in pride. Powerful princes he tears from their thrones and he lifts up the lowly to take their place. Those who hunger for him will always be filled, but the smug and self-satisfied he will send away empty. Because he can never forget to show mercy, he has helped his chosen servant, Israel, keeping his promises to Abraham and to his descendants forever.””
Luke 1:46-55 TPT
Even as I surge and stir within your own heart, you will be refreshed. You will find fresh life, fresh passion. You will be gripped by the things that grip Me. This is what it feels like internally to be moved by the impulses of the Spirit. It feels like tight companionship and an unceasing conversation with Me. It looks like constantly asking Me how I see things, how I view the situation and then getting My perspective quite literally in your spirit and in your mind. It’s feeling the compassion and the heartbreak I have for people, for situations. This is life in the Spirit. This is life as it was meant to be lived from the overflow of My Spirit that resides within you. What is impossible about Me with you? What can be impossible when I Am with you? I never leave you. Let’s live in the realm of suspended impossibility. I reside in the place where nothing is impossible.
“Not one promise from God is empty of power. Nothing is impossible with God!””
Luke 1:37 TPT
I’m inviting you deeper. I’m inviting you higher. I’m inviting you to reach farther. Dig your wells deeper in Me. Dig until you find the living water that gushes and surges and sprays beyond the overflow. This is the place where My glory dwells. This is the place where My power is hidden. Deep, deep below the surface, deep beyond the places of initial pressure and discomfort, deep beyond that is where the source of My power lies. Dig deep until you reach it, and when you tap into the Source, when you tap into Me at that depth, at that level of intimacy, you will have reached that place, you will have found the entry point to the place where impossibility can be suspended. It’s within you. It’s within Me. You have to dig far beneath the surface. You’ll have to do much more than scratch the surface. But mark My words, nothing is impossible with Me, for Me, in Me.
How to Respond
- Pursue the Lord with a fresh vigor and stir up your desire for greater intimacy with Him. He wants to show you and get you to the place where you can tap into His power that lives inside you.
- Pray, Holy Spirit thank You that You are the one who leads me into all truth. Draw me deeper Lord. Take me to new depths, new heights, new places of intimacy with You. I want to tap into all that is possible and leave impossible behind.
- Declare, nothing is impossible with God. Nothing is impossible in God. Nothing is impossible for God.
- Decree, I will pursue the Lord with abandon. I will dig and dig until I reach the depths at which His power resides within me. I will leave the place of impossible behind. In Him, I will find and experience that nothing is impossible.
