January 31, 2023. The Father says today that rest is the default position I will always bring you to in life. When all around you are burdened down, frightened, and in flight, I will bring you to yoke easy and burden light. I give you permission to set aside the false works of dead religion. I authorize you to reject the illegitimate authority of those who have spoken word curses over you. False weights and unjust balances are an abomination to Me, says The Father. I will thunder from on high and wrest away from your peace, the grip of fear, and the tentacles of control and manipulation that have preyed upon you.

I have set you this day as the pupil of My Eye. When the enemy trifles with you, I will execrate him from your life with haste and ferocity. I AM The Lion of The Tribe of Judah, and you are a whelp that I have sired. So roar your roar, though it may seem small at times. For you stand in the shadow of My Mame and My strength, and I add My thunder to your roar and put all your enemies to flight this day, says your Father!

January 30, 2023. The Father says today, it is not good to be alone; therefore, you will not be alone. I created you for companionship, and your first fidelity will be found in intimacy with Me. As you seek out My Deep that calls to your deep, I will come to you and make Myself known to you. I will show you great and mighty things that you know not. I will reveal things, even the hidden things that the eye has not seen and the ear has not heard. I will bring you behind the lattice of natural perspectives and acquaint you with mysteries from the archives of heaven.

Grieve not over relationship estrangements and broken fellowship. Have I not said that I came not to bring peace but a sword? That a man’s foes would be those of their own household? So think it not strange that those nearest in relationship to you, at times, will separate themselves from your company. When I walked the earth, My own kinsmen came to take Me away, for they thought I was mad and beside Myself. Purpose to be a Father-pleaser. Even as I only did what I saw My Father do — go and do likewise. Nothing lasts forever. This, too, shall pass. My ongoing purpose in your life is to set the solitary in families. There will be a day that I will put you in the company of an intimate circle whose heart’s cry will be, “I will never leave you; I will never forsake you.” Trust Me, for that day, will surely come and in the meantime, rejoice, for as they mistreated Me, so they have mistreated you. Receive My comfort this day, therefore, and be at peace.

January 29, 2023. The Father says today that My blessing is more than just warm wishes and kind sentiments. My blessing returns you to that state before the fall, where everything you say and do is effective as if I said it and did it. In the beginning, I entitled mankind to subdue and have dominion. What was lost in the garden of Eden is re-stored in the garden of Gethsemane? I AM implementing the full scope of that transaction in your life as you yield to Me. When I AM fully LORD IN you, then I will be fully Lord THROUGH YOU, says the Father.

Helplessness is not your natural state, says the Father. Powerlessness, bondage, and weakness is not your portion this day. As you surrender inwardly, you will conquer outwardly. Let your surrender to My Lordship be full and final, touching every area of your life. The wind of My Spirit is blowing in your life. As you find that place of yieldedness and surrender, you will see even those immovable, intractable challenges blown away like the chaff. Relinquish the outcome and turn toward Me with all your heart, and I will meet you, cleanse you and refine you into My image. It’s a new day, says the Father, a day of blessing and entitlement as you surrender yourself fully to Me.

January 28, 2023. The Father says today that this is a time and a moment to rest in the FINISHED WORK. When you have seen your life in the light that I give when you have echoed what I say about the situation. When you have yielded to the pruning and received the clarity that divided the light from the darkness. The multiplication of My blessing has arrived. In this moment, says The Father, simply say, “It is Finished.”

No more striving. No more waiting and wondering. Waiting is over. The answer has come. It sits inside you, nurturing your hopes and preparing to spring into full manifestation. Your entitlement in My Purpose is no longer questioned. The full-grown son is standing-up to full stature within you. Rest in Me, says The Father. Rest in My promise. Rest in My Provision. Rest in My Purposes, for they will not fail you because I will not fail you. Enter TODAY into the SPIRIT of SABBATH, says The Father, for there shall be delay no longer.

January 27, 2023. The Father says today, let My image be reflected within you and out from you. Life and circumstance will conspire to cast you in the image of many things, but My likeness is the resemblance you were created to reflect. When I commanded you to have no other gods before Me, I intended that you would not sell yourself cheap to a lie that cannot produce, protect or preserve you. There is one likeness I have placed within you and molded and fashioned you to portray. The enemy sees this and hates it because he hates Me. Allow My likeness to rest upon you and be reflected in your being.

I said to Abraham that his seed would be like the stars of heaven. That ascension identity is your portion. You are not an earthly seed. You are not a mere indentured servant of religious culture. You are the newly born, and in you, My Mercy is renewed every morning. My Greatness is upon you, even the greatness of a nation born of God that the boundaries of men cannot contain or hold back. Know this, says your Father, that I will bless those that bless you, but those that trifle with you, I will execrate out of your life. You are the pupil of My eye, says The Father, and the full faith of the bank of Heaven is at your disposal; for My glory is contained within you and surrounds you like a shield even this day.

January 26, 2023. The Father says today that you are not overlooked in My Purposes. Your relationship with Me includes placement, purpose, and provision. You have asked, “What are you doing, Lord?” I AM populating the void in your life with a “deep calling to deep” intimacy, and the outcome will be multiplication and abundance. The waters of My Spirit within you are not sterile or barren. There is a bringing forth and birthing of greater favor and greater blessing in every area of need and want. You are a set resource in My Government, and you have been brought to The Kingdom for such a time as this. It matters not whether men recognize, cooperate, or align with My purpose in your life, for I AM with you, and I will never forsake you. Embracing Kingdom Purpose in your life is key to walking in Kingdom Blessing. See your placement today. Embrace your purpose. Nothing is lacking, and the transition time you have sought out is now!

I said to Abraham that his seed would be like the stars of heaven. That ascension identity is your portion. You are not an earthly seed. You are not a mere indentured servant of religious culture. You are the newly born, and in you, My Mercy is renewed every morning. My Greatness is upon you, even the greatness of a nation born of God that the boundaries of men cannot contain or hold back. Know this, says your Father, that I will bless those that bless you, but those that trifle with you, I will execrate out of your life. You are the pupil of My eye, says The Father, and the full faith of the bank of Heaven is at your disposal; for My Glory is contained within you and surrounds you like a shield even this day.

January 25, 2023. The Father says today that you are the children of Abraham because of your fidelity and relationship with Me. I said I would bless Abraham and his seed. That “seed” is Christ. In My earth walk, I took of the Abrahamic covenant and released it as a legacy and a free gift to all those who came after Me. Because I AM your Lord and Savior, you are the blessed in faithful Abraham. Thereby I say that I have called you out from the kindred of men into the kindred of My Spirit. I have called you out of human culture and inheritance into the trackless depths of entitlement in My kingdom. I have called you out of the boundaries of an earthly house, and I have made you a spiritual house that will not be overthrown.

I said to Abraham that his seed would be like the stars of heaven. That ascension identity is your portion. You are not an earthly seed. You are not a mere indentured servant of religious culture. You are the newly born, and in you, My Mercy is renewed every morning. My greatness is upon you, even the greatness of a nation born of God that the boundaries of men cannot contain or hold back. Know this, says your Father, that I will bless those that bless you, but those that trifle with you, I will execrate out of your life. You are the pupil of My eye, says The Father, and the full faith of the bank of Heaven is at your disposal; for My Glory is contained within you and surrounds you like a shield even this day.

January 24, 2023. The Father says today, let agreement rule and reign in your life. Let the Matthew 18 agreement take authority in your mind and in your heart. Refuse to allow ANYTHING to bring you out of agreement with My Word and My Spirit. Your capacity for agreement is the exact measurement of your miracle. You must silence the dialogue of skepticism and unbelief. You must refuse to question the veracity of My word, choosing rather challenge the authority of empirical evidence and sense knowledge. You are in a position to enjoy a much greater entitlement in My Kingdom today, says The Father. It is in the grasp of the singleness of your mind, singleness of purpose, and singleness of heart.

So put down every rule and every authority that mocks My fidelity and faithfulness. Refuse to bow to the tyranny of what your eyes see and what past experience has insisted will be repeated. Let go. Forgive. Release. Bless. Move on to the newness of My mercy that awaits you this day. The deposit of My Mercy is on tap for you, and its flow will not be stemmed by any man, demon, or angel, says your Father. I AM a faithful God, and My hand will be moved by a faith-filled heart. Still, the dialogue of unbelief in your heart. Drink deeply of the rivers and currents of My Spirit that bubble and are effervescent in the inner recesses of your spirit. The rivulets of the miraculous are finding their way to the surface of your life as you come into agreement with Me this very instant.

January 23, 2023. The Father says today that there is separation in My Purposes. Light and darkness have no common ground. As the light, I have called you to draw you ever closer. There are things, people, and situations that will be left out. Hold everything loosely. Had Abraham understood this, Lot would never have journeyed with him or ended up in Sodom. The greatest peril to those around you is when they contravene and stand at cross-purposes to My will for your life. Listen to My Voice. Let your commitment to Me be your first fidelity, even though it results in estrangement from compromised relationships.

You have asked for clarity and assurance, and I say to you it will come as you respond and align yourself with what I have already made clear and certain. There is no going forward until current assignments have reached their conclusion. So much of what you are looking to Me for is under your hand and will be released as you yield in word, deed, and action to My directives. Fear not, says The Father. I know what you need. There is not one cry of your heart that has not wrapped itself around My Heart and plucked the strings of My Compassion. Move on. Move forward in trust and assurance, and the outcome for you and for those around you will be made certain.

January 22, 2023. The Father says today that your world is framed by God-words I have placed in your mouth. Down through history, I transmitted My Words from ancient cultures and foreign tongues right down to this day. Take advantage of the access I have afforded to you of My Word, says The Father. See that which is living and dynamic, whereas others see only dead letter. See the word of My power where others see only mythology and contrivance. Allow My Word to become the God-word on the inside of you. My Word is living and powerful and will come to life on the lips of faith.

When you speak My Word, you bring Me on the scene, says The Father. When you speak My word, rice paper and bonded leather become the vital link between bondage and breakthrough. Fall in love with My Word once again, this day. Refuse to allow another to arbitrate My Word for you. Let your relationship with My Word become personal and intimate once again. I honored My word above My Name, and I call upon you to clothe yourself afresh and anew with My Words. In so doing, My word will become manifest substance and promise in your life, says The Father.

January 21, 2023. The Father says today, see yourself through My eyes. See yourself as the redeemed. See yourself as the forgiven. See yourself as the entitled son, the entitled daughter of My right hand. You will in no way be denied or turned away from My Throne of Grace. I formed man in My Image in the garden, and I ratified that image on The Cross. When I cried, “it is finished,” I laid the foundation of a whole new creation, a whole new species on the earth. When you are born again, the DNA of that new creation begins to replicate itself throughout your life. That process will not halt until you are perfected in My Image.

So begin this day afresh and anew, to SEE yourself as I see you. When you look into that place in your heart that you yielded to Me, you will see Me looking back at you.
Fear not, says The Father. I AM inexorably extending Myself from the inmost part of you to the furthest periphery of your being. You are the beloved. I have set you as the pupil of My Eye. Command your eyes to See as I see and to ACT as I act, and the power of sin, shame, and failure will yield to that image!

January 20, 2023. The Father says today, MARK the PERFECT man; the end of that man shall be peace. Have I not marked you and singled you out as a recipient of My mercy? I have marked you and remembered you this day, even as I remembered Noah and the survivors of the deluge. You have wondered what the outcome would be at times. You are still here, aren’t you? Care not for tomorrow. Take the energies spent on tomorrow’s problems and spend them on Me. As you come to Me, so I will shield and protect you from tomorrow’s evils.

When I remembered Noah, I caused a wind to blow. Even so, My wind is blowing over you right now at this very moment. The wind that I AM sending over your life will cause the waters of adversity to abate, and you will step out on dry ground. You will come through the present assault of hell undamaged and undiminished. This will ever be the consistent response of My hand where you are concerned. Expect My wind, the wind of My Grace, and the wind of My Mercy. The Wind of My strength will turn back the blighting scourge of the enemy and deliver you intact on the side of victory.

January 19, 2023. The Father says today that confusion and resistance are a part of warfare. Do not assume, because you face contention, that you are not following the course I have set for you. I have not left you ignorant of Satan’s devices. Make your mind up not to be deceived by the smoke and mirrors by which the devil portrays himself as more than he is. In the scriptures, your enemy is identified as the “adversary.” He is subtle and crafty, but you can identify him in any area of life where adversity asserts itself. No matter how well hidden this strategy of hell is, you can expose him every time by tracking that which is adverse against you.

Your part is to resist, and My part is to put him to flight, says The Father. Resist the adversary, and he will flee – it is his nature, and I have given him no other choice. I formed light, and I create darkness, and yes, I created the waster to destroy, BUT NO WEAPON FORMED AGAINST YOU SHALL PROSPER. So face each challenge with My thoughts, My mind, and My character. What are you going to do? You are going to do what I would do if I were in your position. Rise up into your entitlement today and know it as your just inheritance accorded by My hand. You are not a victim, and neither have I destined you to suffer ANYTHING that I paid the price for on Calvary.

January 18, 2023. The Father says today, I do not accept the blood of bulls and goats, but your sacrifices of praise will be a sweet-smelling savor to Me. There are those who mock and scoff at the oblations of your lips, but know this — your worship changes the outcome, even the immediate outcome of the circumstance before you. My Heart responds to worship as you magnify My Mame above the challenge you are facing. My Hand is swift to scribe the requisition of My blessing and provision on your behalf today. The Angels now hasten to your defense to uphold and champion your cause.

Call upon Me in the day of trouble; will I not answer you? Call upon Me even when you feel unworthy; will I not pour out My Mercy upon you in fresh measure? Offer thanksgiving and pay your heart vows to Me, and I will destroy the efforts of the enemy to contain and contaminate you. This day, this hour, this season, I AM bringing you to the refreshing of My fountains of grace, forgiveness, and joy, says your Papa God!

January 17, 2023. The Father says today, do not allow the urgent to eclipse the important in your life. Make it your determination this day to invest your energies into your potential and not your problem. Problems, like the poor, are always with us – but your potential has a shelf life that must not be ignored. There is a door of opportunity before you. I don’t want you to simply knock – I want you to take this door off its hinges and enter in with audacious faith, believing that you are who I say you are, regardless of circumstances.

Let your eyes see today who I have crafted you to be. See yourself in the vast glory of My potential that lives on the inside of you. Your potential is independent of circumstances. In fact, your potential rules over circumstance and will bring you out of deprivation, restriction, and lack, as you focus on the throne. I created you for increase, birthing, acceleration, and fruitfulness. This is your base state in My kingdom. Rejoice in that provision, says The Father, and see it manifest as your experience this day.

January 16, 2023. The Father says today that I AM blowing the shofar with the blast of My nostrils into your spirit today. I AM sending My wind to give life and breath to all that is within you. Tell your ears to HEAR My SOUND, says The Father. It is a sound that calls you to the feast of celebrating My blessing and My abundance. It is a sound of war against deprivation, denial, and failure. Your destiny will not be an abortion, says The Father. Listen to My voice and yield to My sound as it reverberates through every fiber of your being.

My sound is living and vibrant with strength, blessing, and favor. Open your ears to My sound and reject the whispers of the enemy that speak failure, defeat, and despondency. The outlook is NOT bleak, says The Father. Command your eyes to see, for I have given you the city, and the citadels of darkness around you are falling in ruin to the earth. No more failure, no more sorrow, no more sighing for MY SOUND, says The Father, for I AM sounding the CLARION annunciation of BLESSING, FAVOR, and KINGDOM PORTION in your life this day!

January 15, 2023. The Father says today, that revelation in your spirit will transcend information in your mind – if you will allow it. Do not allow yourself to be conformed by the natural mind, but rather transformed by the mind of My Spirit that resides within you. Your mind is INFORMATIONAL and bounded by inadequacy and imperfection. My mind within you is TRANSFORMATIONAL, unbounded, and limitless. You have heard the exhortation, “take the limits off of God.” I say to you today, that I AM not limited in any way, and you also will neither be limited nor bounded, as you allow your mind to be washed and cleansed from all that originates from fear, unbelief, and negative expectations.

Your past, your experiences, and social conditioning shape your mind and present you with a daily subset of limitation, restriction, and inadequacy. This is the information that arises from the five senses and the rational mind. This day, I invite you to set aside sense-ruled assessments and soar with Me to the heights where the impossible is not only plausible but inevitable. What man calls impossibility and fantasy is the natural state where I create, craft, and release destiny, provision, healing, and deliverance by My hand. This is where answered prayer originates, and there are parcels of the miraculous being released now with your address on the shipping details. So rejoice, says The Father, and expect, for I AM ruling Myself into your circumstances, and as you trust, obey and yield to Me, the answers you seek will be made manifest.

January 14, 2023. The Father says today, do not allow the enemy to dampen your zeal. There is pseudo-sophistication in pessimism and unbelief, but it only produces dust and ashes. Go ahead and believe what others say is foolishness, for I use the foolish things of the world to confound the wise. I use the base things that others turn their nose up at to release the FULL weight of My glory. You have nothing to prove and nothing to apologize for. Never listen to your critics and never answer those who demand you to explain yourself when you KNOW you have stepped out in obedience to My voice. The spirit of the mocker is being expelled from your land, says The Father. The Spirit of GRACE and MERCY arise in power, healing, and deliverance.

You asked for new light and I AM bringing a whole new spiritual eco-system over you this day. Darkness is being dispelled, and the light of forgiveness and relinquishing breaks the shackles off your feet. You WILL walk into the NEW DAY, says The Father. This is a day of COMMISSIONING, ENGAGEMENT, and OUTCOME. I AM commissioning My character on the inside of you. I AM engaging My dunamis power with your weakness and need and bringing about a KINGDOM outcome that will redefine even this day how you look, think and act. I declare you are BELOVED; you will not only believe this, but you will know it as your default experience in Me!

January 13, 2023. The Father says today, be interruptible, for interruptions of glory are coming. There will be a knock at the door, and someone will be standing there saying, “I was driving by, and SOMETHING compelled me to stop and knock on your door – can you help me?” You will be in the grocery and the clerk will reach for your items and look at your face and start weeping – are you ready for that? You will be unable to go about business as usual for there is nothing normal about what I’m doing in you, and through you.

They will block traffic around your house for the people crowding around, and you didn’t even plan to do anything other than go about your day – for I AM HERE and I AM CHANGING and CHANGING and CHANGING those things that have crowded out My presence in the earth. Neighborhoods and cities and nations will be interrupted, says The Father, as I come to redeem the purchased possession and claim what I paid for on the cross. No longer will unbelief or the theology of failure dominate My people, for I AM NOW showing them what a Living, Loving and Present God is willing and capable of doing. Are you ready? Knock, knock, knock!

January 12, 2023. The Father says today; I AM redefining your life with a new perspective this very day. Your past will no longer be an accurate point of reference for who you are or where you are going in My Kingdom. This day says The Father, I release to you the template of destiny that I crafted before the foundation of the world. There is no existing condition or contradiction that can or will usurp that blueprint. Say to your eyes, “Be Opened!” and say to your ears, “Be Opened!” for you will no longer be unseeing or unhearing in My Kingdom.

Do not be concerned with what man says or what the enemy says. You are not ignorant of Satan’s devices; therefore, you need not heed his threatenings; for My Plan and My Purposes are cast over you like a self-fulfilling mantle of favor, blessing, and power. Look unto Me, says The Father, and discount the winds of adversity and the detrimental conditions in the natural, for My hand, is not inaccessible and My heart is disposed to bring NOW the change and the upgrade you have cried out to Me for.

January 11, 2023. The Father says today that My Goodness precedes My Glory. You have cried out to Me for greater glory, and it is obtainable, says The Father. Your gateway to My effulgence is available to you on the foundation of the shed blood of the Cross and not any other criteria. There is no level of performance-based approach to My throne. Only the shed blood can afford you entrance to the Glory you have asked Me for My Glory is not an outward thing, says The Father; it is an inward authenticity. I dwell in the midst of the cherubim, in the inner chambers of your own heart and life.

Moses cried out to see My glory, but it was necessary to cause My goodness to pass before him, first of all. So get ready, get READY, GET READY, says The Father, for I will, from this moment on, cause My Goodness to pass before you and lodge in your life and come to reality and full manifestation. My Goodness is the preamble to The Glory you have sought, and I AM disposed to answer your cry without delay. Rejoice, says The Father. Rejoice and be glad, for this is the day that everything changes!

January 10, 2023. The Father says today, do not be troubled that you might miss out on what I AM doing on the earth. I will see to it that you are in the crosshairs of My Glory when the shift comes and the release of My Spirit is unleashed. You see, says The Father, when I breathe upon the earth, you are the breezeway through which I exhale. I breathe in your petitions and breathe out your declarations, and the earth is changed! Look not upon the circumstances, and situations in your life that contradict My promise, for those things are subject to change -00 and I AM the God who is capable of getting it done!

This day I call you to come near to Me, says The Father. Refuse to be distracted by the illusory suggestions of the enemy that would cause you to look away from My unveiled face. Receive My entreaty and allow the spirit of encouragement to lift your countenance and restore your joy! Refresh yourself in the fountains of My effervescent favor, says The Father, for the bubbling springs of laughter and exhilaration, are breaking the surface of your life and sweeping away all despondency. Enter into discourse with My Living Potential and terminate the dialog of failure and sorrow, for that is not your inheritance in My Kingdom. Be stirred! Be persuaded! You can afford it, says The Father, for I AM recharging the banks of joy in your life and releasing the substance of all that I have promised to you this day!

January 9, 2023 The Father says today that there is no regret in love. I have no regret that I spent heaven’s best on your behalf, says The Father. My heart is enlarged toward you today. My love for you knows no depth or height or limitation. If Calvary were called for again today, I would bestow upon you My Only Begotten, yet again, for the love wherewith I have loved you. My love is not a clinical thing or some obscure, detached concept. My Love for you is the very heart of who I AM. Were I not to love you, I would not be the All-Sufficient One — for My love is inherent in every aspect of My character. My relationship with you is one of passion, intensity, and unconditional advocacy.

So your role then is to be beloved. Allow yourself to receive My love, revel in My love, and know it as your portion that I accord to you unconditionally. I Love you, and beyond love, there is no purpose or plan; for My Love encapsulates all I would that you ever know about who I AM and what I AM in your life. Accept Ly love, says The Father. Accept the love of the only begotten and go out in your day and be beloved; for I have set My love upon you, and I will not relent until the fullest measure of love finds its expression in your life.

January 8, 2023. The Father says today that you are clean by the word that I have spoken to you in the Secret Place. The Secret Place is a place of abiding for you and not just occasional visitation . The enemy of your soul would draw you out into the concourse of vain things and vain thoughts, but I say to you, resist the enemy, and his strategy will fail. The pressure brought by circumstance and problems will dissipate in the secret place, for there is no lordship there but Mine. I AM the Author and the Finisher, says The Father, and in the secret place, I have scribed My promises on the scroll of your life, and what I have written will not be disannulled.

So come to the secret place today, in your heart and in your mind. Allow Me to wash you and cleanse you of hollow thoughts and futile expectations. Let My fire in the secret place refine you as gold and leave you flawless in My image. Come away, My beloved. Come away from the shallows of earthly things and descend into the place where deep calleth to deep, that I might renew you in spirit, restore you in mind, give you strength for the day and sinew for the battle. Tear yourself away from the distraction of mind and distortion of vision the enemy would detour you with, and find yourself anchored in My love and secured by My Everlasting Arms.

January 7, 2023. The Father says today, that you are one who is destined to know My Voice. You will see what I AM saying. You will hear what I AM saying, and you will sense what I AM saying. I AM giving you NOW discernment at a deeper level than before. You will meditate on My goodness, and the distillation of My Spirit will manifest truth in the innermost parts of your being. As others have been a student of the Logos, you will be a student of the Rhema — even My present truth that is specifically and directly applied to your day-to-day life. In your life and the lives of others, you shall be able to answer the question, “what is The LORD saying today? What is He doing today?” Purpose in your heart to ACT upon what I reveal and prompt and compel you to do and to say.

I will cause you to be in the right place at the right time, and miracles will come. Miracles will come as you and as others cooperate with what I reveal through the Still, Small Voice. My voice is bringing transformation, so prepare to move with the cloud of My Spirit and the pillar of fire. I will give you projects and purposes and strategies of heaven, says The Father . I will show you the pay window for the natural resources needed and bring you blessing more than you might think. You will be known as one who walks in the Papa-God anointing, and many will be delivered of an orphan spirit as they gather to and around the love, provision, and ministry that I AM bringing to you and through you – out to others.

January 6, 2023. The Father says today; there is a portal of glory that follows you wherever you go today. You need not seek some external place or geographical location, for it is WHO I AM WITHIN YOU that saves, heals, and delivers. I laid down My life on the tree in order to release to you all that Calvary affords. I dwell as the Christ within, manifesting your hope and expectation. Relinquish all self-referral and insecurity of self, and allow Me to be your ALL and ALL.

I AM the ROCK that followed the children of Israel through the wilderness, and from that rock, I was the water that refreshed them in the desert. I AM just that same resource in your life today. I AM the fire by night and the cloud by day that follows you at every turn. From the portal of My glory WITHIN, I AM releasing the fullness of My Grace and blessing, and substance. That glory is activated and poured out into you now by your words and declarations. Draw this day on My Glory, says The Father. Draw upon My substance. My glory is connected with your hopes, and surely all your heart’s cry will be brought to manifestation.

January 5, 2023. The Father says today; I have a plan that is unfolding around you and being birthed in you. I have a plan, yet you do not fully understand it. You have sought after and endeavored to establish in your mind the parameters of what your spirit told you I AM about to do, but I say, fret not! The fulfillment of what I AM doing is not incumbent upon your understanding, but your obedience. Servants obey from the head, but your obedience is a heart obedience as a dear child, not an indentured servant.

Well done, says The Father. Come this day into the relinquishing of your concepts and principles, and be released into the rarefied atmosphere of My thoughts. My thoughts are establishing you and My thoughts are flowing through you. My thoughts are releasing in you the energy and information that brings breakthrough, adjustment, and promotion. Come up higher, says The Father, that My voice might be heard in your land without distortion. Your hearing is not as good as it could be, but I AM improving that. Yes, I AM turning up the amplitude of my voice in your life in a supernatural way. In quietness and rest you will receive My downloads into your spirit and thereby, as you act in accordance with My revealed will, my purpose will not fail in your life.

January 4, 2023. The Father says today that I AM the banner over you. I AM Jehovah-Nissi in your life today. I have made your person the rallying point for angel reinforcements, says The Father. So be prepared to see their activity about you, in your activities. When man fails you, and those who should have come to your comfort have not – HAVE NO FEAR, for I AM your Comfort and your support. I will strongly support you even as friends and family look the other way.

Forgive those who have neglected you and even shirked their duty. They did what they did, and they are what they are. Do not allow yourself to become emotionally compromised by expecting them to change their hearts or minds. Give those disappointments and wounds to Me, says The Father, for I will heal, restore and uphold you until the situation is corrected. There are even times that others, in spite of their best intentions, will dishearten you by their actions — but I will never disillusion you, says The Father. I will always be there for you. I will take up your cause and defend you, and protect you and be your provision. There will be no lack, no denial, and no delay from this day forward, says The Father. So take heart and be encouraged, for your blessing time is come.

January 3, 2023. The Father says today, that you do not have to convince Me to act on your behalf, because I have no reluctance to move in your life. All of the promises in My Word find their yes and amen in the provisions of the Cross. My default answer toward you is yes, says The Father, for I will never leave you — I will never forsake you. I will bring you to your fair haven and anchor you in the safe harbor of My everlasting arms. So come boldly, says The Father Come expectantly by the new and living way that My consecration has afforded you. My Throne is a throne of grace and My heart toward you is a heart of mercy.

I AM not reviewing your failures and shortcomings before I respond in the affirmative to your need. When I look into your life, I see nothing that gives Me pause; for the blood shed on your behalf cleanses you and enables you to enter My Courts without unreasoning fear or intimidation. I have deeper depths and higher heights than you have imagined, says The LORD, and on those ramparts, I will lay the victor’s wreath upon your brow, as you cast all your cares and all your concerns upon Me this day.

January 2, 2023. The Father says today; it is time to have a blatant disregard for popular opinion and simply listen to My Voice. I AM calling you into a season of life to be a serious Father-pleaser to the exclusion of all else. Be a Father-pleaser, says The LORD, because I haven’t called you to live your life in the context or in the confines of the good opinion of others. I know that isn’t what you’ve heard or what you’ve been taught. I say to you this day, prove Me and see that I will lead and transform you. I will synchronize your heart to My heart as you filter OUT the noisome pestilence of man’s thoughts and sequester yourself to the parameters of My mind instilled in you and working through you.

Before there will ever be the reality of unity among men, there must first come oneness with My heart and My Purposes. You will not find the deep that calls to deep in collaboration with the lateral, with those more connected to each other than they are to Me. You must come AWAY, My Beloved, and in the intimacy behind the lattice, I will cause you to know the BRIDAL Truth that I AM bringing into the earth, and you will come out terrible as an Army with banners. You will route the enemy, take the spoil, and fulfill My purposes that are sown like seed into your future. I have called you in the night seasons as the bridegroom sought His beloved. N ow hasten to Me and see My Purposes, brought to pass in a supernatural way for your benefit and the benefit of all around you.

January 1, 2023. The Father says today, let My song be in your heart. Lift up the song of praise and the song of triumph, for I have brought you to My Courts where the reproaches of the enemy cannot reach you. Cry aloud on your bed and make melody in your heart; for I will justify the melody with the inspiration of answered prayer, provisioned by My Hand. Praise brings down the enemy and releases the sound of heaven. The sound of heaven is in your land, and it originates in your heart, where I sit enthroned, superintending every aspect of your life. Sing the song of mercy and the song of grace, says The Father, for I AM disposed NOW to show My loving-kindness upon you.

The Father says it is time for you to fly. I AM now working to make your life seriously aerodynamic. I AM now lightening your load and simplifying those things that have been complicated. I AM uncomplicating your life, says The Father, so determine to work with me and give Me your full cooperation. Do not take on responsibilities that are not yours, and do not allow others to impose their agenda upon your life. My favor is upon you today, and from this point forward, as you align and cooperate with Me, I will completely reshape the spiritual geography of your existence.
