Be still and know that I AM your God and that I AM faithful to bring you from where you are now to where you need to be in Me. These are the days when many will fall prey to seducing spirits and doctrines of demons so you must stay close to Me. You must seek My face daily and ask Me what you are facing each step of the way.

The enemy has many faces and he appears as an angel of light. He can conform himself into that which appears to be light, but inwardly there will be poison pouring forth. He is the counterfeit of everything that I stand for. Yes, he is a con-artist by trade.

When you run into a situation that you are not comfortable with, ask Me to show you what it is that you are facing, and I will show you whether it is something you are reacting to or whether it is a check in your spirit man. No matter what I have called you to be gentle as a lamb but wise as a serpent aware of the tactics of the enemy to pull you astray.

If something appears to be evil, don’t try to justify it for even the appearance of evil can make many stumble that are weak in their faith. Yes, you may have the faith to do certain things, but it isn’t all about you but about how it may affect others in their walk.

This is the day of the great falling away and it begins with the little foxes that you allow into your life, those mindsets that are off, those attitudes that are wrong, and those false judgments.

I AM out to build character, to bring forth the genuine article, and not the counterfeit. I AM bringing forth maturity and humility by what I allow you to face, for each situation has its own pattern of circumstances orchestrated to conform you into My image, if you respond to it in love.

Yes, love is the measure to which I judge your motives, thoughts and actions. And love brings forth peace and every other good fruit. When there is confusion, it only shows that you have crossed over into an area that is not of Me.

Repent this day and start anew. Wash yourself clean for this is a new day. Old things are now covered over by My blood and My love. Cry out to Me for the great grace that will carry you through.

Yes, stay close to My side and I will lead you through the storms. I will keep you safe for I am your God. I will comfort you and strengthen you and uphold you with the right hand of My righteousness.

Yolanda Ballard of At The Father’s Feet website, shares with you, the body of Christ, the words she’s received quietly sitting at the Father’s feet. I believe Jesus set the example for us to follow. Whenever He could He would come apart from the busyness of the world so that He could quiet Himself before the Father, for that is where He received direction and strength to carry out His will.
