A Tidal Wave of Peace is Available
The Lord says,
Allow My peace to wash over you, to soak you to the bone. Allow My peace to bring rest, relief and respite. Allow the massive wave of My peace to drown out the noise, the chaos, the heartbreak and insanity. Allow the tidal wave of My peace to cover you, to protect you, to give you eyes to see the treasures around you. Though the waves crash and the storm is ferocious, though the world is in chaos, confusion and disarray, you can have peace. Step into the the tunnel of My peace, the safe place under the tidal wave of My peace. My peace is a shield, and My Name is a strong tower. The righteous run to Me and they are safe. Hide in My peace. Take refuge in My peace. Let the wave of My peace wash over you. Let the wave of My peace quiet your mind, quiet your heart, quiet the storm inside of you and give you clear eyes to see. Let My peace do it’s work. If you operate from this peace, your moves will be sure and your words will hit their target. I give a quiet but mighty confidence with My peace.
Let the wave of My peace and the oil of My Presence mark you, soothe you, calm you and restore you. You can’t live successfully and you can’t fight successfully from a place of anxiety, fear, anger and stress. Lay those down. Choose My peace. Welcome My peace and sit in My Presence. You will tap into the true source of rest. You will find your burdens eased. This is what the zen seeking are looking for in the wrong places. Tap into the Source of all peace, and give your soul rest in Me. Get refreshing at the well of My Presence. I never run dry, and I never fail. I Am a faithful fountain, a mighty spring, and when you fill yourself with Me, out from you flows a river of living water that refreshes many. I Am for you. Come into My perfect peace.
19 I am doing something brand new, something unheard of.
Isaiah 43:19
Even now it sprouts and grows and matures.
Don’t you perceive it?
I will make a way in the wilderness
and open up flowing streams in the desert.
Batons Are Changing Hands
The Lord says,
I Am handing out many batons and placing them in the right hands of many. I Am shooting the starting gun and many new runners are running with the batons that were left by their predecessors. The track is filled with smoke and thick fog, and these new runners don’t have much visibility. But they are running forward with the vision I placed in their hearts, as they hold tightly and faithfully onto the batons that they’ve been given.
Many do not yet recognize that they have been given a baton and cannot perceive the significance of the race that they are now in. They are simply running forward in faithfulness and faith. As the smoke clears and the fog lifts in the days ahead, they will see that I have positioned them in the race. They will see that they are indeed a runner in this great relay, and they have been empowered with a baton to lead the charge for that which I have placed in their hearts to do. I made a deposit in their heart, and that deposit filled them with the faith, the vision and the conviction to run. The baton marks them as a runner, as a leader, as one qualified for the race. And these will be the new titans of the faith. These will be the new titans who lead, who carve out new paths, who run with integrity and who lead with a holy reverence and awe of the Lord God Almighty.
Look for the ones I have handed batons to. They will be emerging soon. They will become visible after the smoke and the fog lifts, after many disqualifications and ejections from the game. Look for these new titan runners who will race and pioneer and lead many into new territory, into new discoveries, into a new day – those Glorious Days of Reformation and then Renaissance. My baton carriers, these titan runners will blaze many new trails into those days.
Position yourself in humility and with a willingness to run. I don’t use the most eloquent or equipped. I anoint and enable the willing and the humble — those with ears to hear Me and a desire to understand My heart.
