As I sat with the Lord today, I asked Him what was on His heart. This is what I heard Him say that He allowed me to share with you.

“And if the Spirit of Him Who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, [then] He Who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead will also restore to life your mortal (short-lived, perishable) bodies through His Spirit Who dwells in you” Romans 8:11, AMP.

My child, I did not leave My body behind. At the Father’s command I took up My body from the grave. I AROSE, for the Father did not allow My natural body to experience corruption. My Resurrection is the proof of My complete, total, and absolute victory over the evil one: death, hell, and the grave.

Press in, My child, I desire for you to have greater revelation of My Resurrection. As the Son of Man, I came to make a way of reconciliation with the Father for all mankind. My human body was prepared for Me by the Father so I could come as the Last Adam to produce a race — a new creation — able to walk in communion with the Father even as the first Adam did before the fall.

I did not leave without My body. As I ascended back to the Father, I did so as the Last Adam: a complete human man (spirit, soul, and body). I am seated at the right hand of the Throne of the Father with My glorified human body.

If you believe in My Resurrection and My Ascension back to the Father, why would you not consider that My plan of salvation — restoration to complete union with the Father — would not include your human body? You are called to be conformed to My image. The call has gone out to those who have ears to hear what the Spirit is saying in this hour.

Come! Partake of the provisions of the Kingdom that have been bought for you at a great price. Set yourselves apart. Be sanctified by your willing submission to the obedience of Christ Jesus. Then the Lord will glorify you: spirit, soul, and body. Yes, for His good pleasure and for the glory of the Father.

This is the day and hour to choose who you will follow. I have testified that I would never leave you nor forsake you. This promise is not limited by anything man or demon can do. It does not have an expiration date. I even supply you with the grace to empower your faith to higher levels. There your faith is joined to the faith of Christ through the union of the Spirit, Who indwells you.

You are called to be an overcomer in all areas of your triune being. Respond to My call with your own call, “Your will, not my will, Lord, be done.” I will answer you and show My hand strong on your behalf. Let patience have her way in you, so I can complete the work I desire to do in and through your yielded vessel.

You are My most precious child. Believe the sincerity of My love for you, as I move you onto higher spiritual ground. Receive the grace for the next step, My child. I pour out showers of blessings and cover you with My wings as I hold you close to My heart. Shalom.
