Build with the Lord
The Lord says,
Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain. (Psalm 127:1) Today I Am building a new thing. I Am building a sea port that can receive My ship. My majestic ship is filled with wonders and treasure from abroad. This is the ship of my blessing. This is the ship of My favor. This is the ship of untold wealth and gifts unimaginable. This ship is heading in to safe harbor, and I am building the sea port to receive her.
The port I Am constructing will be able to receive this mighty ship of My blessing. The port is you. The port is in you. It’s in your heart, in your mind, in your mouth. Is your heart prepared to receive blessings untold and favor unimagined? Is your mouth one that reflects the grace and blessing of the King of kings resting on you? Don’t shrink from My correction or My discipline. I Am building in you a harbor — a heart open heart with expectation, a mindset of nobility, a carriage and grace of royalty that can receive may gifts. I Am establishing this port within you, so you do not turn away My favor and My gifts when they arrive. You must be able to identify them and receive them. Let Me build this in you. Yield to My hand and to My voice, and let’s build something beautiful, majestic and worthy together.
The drumbeat is getting faster. The pace is picking up. Let Me do quick work within you. Be quick to obey and respond to My voice. I will not lead you astray, and I will not instruct you wrongly. I am here for you, and I Am building something beautiful in you that is tested, equipped and able to receive the bounty of blessing I Am preparing to unload into your life. Don’t shrink back and don’t shy away. Don’t let lies of unworthiness or inferiority rob you of your inheritance. Look up. Lift your head up. Stand tall, and follow Me. Get your heart in sync with Mine. I Am preparing to amaze you.
The Lord Is Laying Charges
The Lord says,
I’m laying charges. I Am laying charges at the feet of many. I Am calling many up higher. Many have been leading lukewarm, half-hearted lifestyles, and I Am challenging them to come up higher. I’m challenging them to purify themselves, to live lives filled with grace and purity and My beauty. I Am charging them to stoke the fire of passion within them and to rise up and be more than they have settled for — to be wild, passionate, creative and explosive ones — not slave to routine and convention. Convention was invented by those who wouldn’t dream. Convention is way overrated. Convention is boring. I’m calling you to live a wide open life with no borders, no limitations, with eyes on Me, filled with passion for Me, for My people and for whatever it is I have put in your heart to do. This is the charge I Am laying at the feet of many.
2 I know all that you’ve done for me—you have worked hard and persevered. I know that you don’t tolerate evil. You have tested those who claimed to be apostles and proved they are not, for they were imposters.3 I also know how you have bravely endured trials and persecutions because of my name, yet you have not become discouraged. 4 But I have this against you: you have abandoned the passionate love you had for me at the beginning. 5 Think about how far you have fallen! Repent and do the works of love you did at first. I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place of influence if you do not repent.
Revelation 2:2-5
Be holy, therefore as I Am holy. But change your mind about holy. Holy is not boring. No, holy is burning. Holy is alive and impactful. Convention is boring. Holy is a wonderful sight to behold. Be holy.
