Today’s Reading:
Psalm 84
Psalm 103
Matthew 7
”Even when their paths wind through the dark valley of tears, they dig deep to find a pleasant pool where others find only pain. He gives to them a brook of blessing filled from the rain of an outpouring. They grow stronger and stronger with every step forward, and the God of all gods will appear before them in Zion. Hear my cry, O God of Heaven’s Armies! God of Jacob, listen to my loving prayer. Pause in his presence“
Psalms 84:6-8 TPT
The Spirit of the Living God says,
I’m moving to fulfill dreams. I’m pushing dormant dreams to the surface like a pimple. They will seem like an irritation and an embarrassment, because you have not experienced fulfillment yet. But I Am pushing them to the surface. I Am causing them to be irritants to your soul. I Am causing you to look at them and reexamine them, because they have been hidden away beneath the surface for so long. I Am causing a dissatisfaction with the status quo, with the current offerings, with the unfulfillment. And I Am causing new hope to rise up in your heart for that which has been lacking, that which has been unfulfilled, for that which has lately risen to the surface as a great irritant in your life that you can’t ignore.
”If you, imperfect as you are, know how to lovingly take care of your children and give them what’s best, how much more ready is your heavenly Father to give wonderful gifts to those who ask him?”“
Matthew 7:11 TPT
I Am moving to restore hearts, to awaken hearts, to revitalize hearts and to make your joy full. The discomfort is to remind you of your desire. This pain has been to cause you to look up and ask once again, even in the midst of your pain, for the answer that has seemed so far out of reach. I want you to ask yet again. I want you to stir up desire and vision and dream once again. I want you to plan for fulfillment once again. Lack is not a reality of My Kingdom. I Am the God of always more than enough. I Am the God of super-sufficiency, super-abundance and no lack. In Me you will lack no good thing. I Am moving to fulfill.
These recent irritants have been to wake up your awareness of that dream that you have let die, that you have buried beneath the surface, that you have pushed so far out of your mind, so you can carry on with daily living. I have stirred up irritants to reconnect you with that desire, to remind you and reunite you with that dream. Am I not more than able? Do I withhold any good thing from My beloved children who love Me?
”For the Lord God is a sun and shield; The Lord gives grace and glory; No good thing does He withhold from those who walk uprightly. O Lord of hosts, How blessed is the man who trusts in You“
Psalms 84:11-12 NASB1995
The irritation and the awakening is serving a purpose. It has made you aware. And with this awareness at the surface, you can recognize the gift when I bring it. You can know that it was not a fluke, coincidence or happenstance. I Am synergizing and reawakening desires and dreams that have laid dormant, desires and dreams that seem to have dried up and died, desires and dreams that have even been living at the surface like a constant irritant. I Am bringing them into their time. I Am moving to fulfill in this time. Live with an awareness of My Presence. Live with an awareness of My goodness. I Am about to place in your hand that thing which your heart desires.
How to Respond
- Partner with the Lord and allow yourself to get your hopes up.
- Pray, Holy Spirit come. Do whatever You need to do to position me, to awaken my heart for the fulfillment of the dreams and desires that seem dried up and dead. Bring encouragement. Bring a holy dissatisfaction with the status quo, and help me to have eyes to see Your hands at work moving to fill and fulfill at the places I feel lacking and all of my heart’s desires that seem out of reach. Thank You for being the giver of every good and perfect gift. Thank You for being the Good Father who moves on His children’s behalf. Thank You for seeing me and for being the one who placed these desires in my heart. You would not have put them there if You didn’t intend to fulfill them.
- Declare, With my whole heart, with my whole life, and with my innermost being, I bow in wonder and love before you, the holy God! You are my soul’s celebration. How could I ever forget the miracles of kindness you’ve done for me? (Psalm 103:1-2)
- Decree, You satisfy my every desire with good things. You’ve supercharged my life so that I soar again like a flying eagle in the sky! You’re a God who makes things right, giving justice to the defenseless. (Psalm 103:5-6)
- The same way a loving father feels toward his children — that’s but a sample of your tender feelings toward us, your beloved children, who live in awe of you. (Psalm 103:13)
