I had a burden of prayer the other day for a dear friend, and it since has turned into a burden for several more because of life events - people who have lost a dear loved one, which can include even more people as the circle widens. Especially when it comes to friends, I always ask what the Lord might be saying. They feel such a loss, and I have experienced that too with both friends and family. Anyway, as I was interceding, the Lord said abruptly - and He will speak in strong ways at times - "You don't get it, do you?" I was surprised by the way He said it. "I gave those people a person to love them. I did that! " (I knew He was including me too.). His tone was not rebuking as much as it was a strong type of correction.

I had a burden of prayer the other day for a dear friend, and it since has turned into a burden for several more because of life events - people who have lost a dear loved one, which can include even more people as the circle widens.
Especially when it comes to friends, I always ask what the Lord might be saying. They feel such a loss, and I have experienced that too with both friends and family.
Anyway, as I was interceding, the Lord said abruptly - and He will speak in strong ways at times - "You don't get it, do you?"
I was surprised by the way He said it.
"I gave those people a person to love them. I did that! " (I knew He was including me too.). His tone was not rebuking as much as it was a strong type of correction.
"They think they were added in to the other person's life when I was the One who added them to them! They are not seeing that I put that person there to love THEM! They feel a loss but ALL of that IS IN ME! "
I was kind of taken aback by it at first, but then understood what He was saying.
He is the Designer of our lives, and He is infinite Love. He is not trying to take away, but add to. He wants us to trust Him!
If we can place that trust in Him, He can do more for us. We can see Him add instead of subtract.
Yes it is challenging at times, because we found a comfort zone, but He is God! Work not to see the loss as much as you see the blessings of His Love that He gave because HE LOVES YOU!
God is Truth
Emotions can make us think a wrong way, but God is Truth!
Natural grief will put value on something, but there is a grief that is a spirit that can snare. We need to avoid that. Expressing value is good. We help each other with that.
Love is beautiful and life goes on and will continue to go on after this life we know here. God provided for that. In Christ, or the Anointing, it gets better! As Christians we can sow love into others who need it, too. Those are nice benefits!
If we can see what God is doing now to show His Love, we can be open for more of it. He will give it!
God's Love is worthy of our praise. Thank You Jesus!
It's awesome to know He rose from the dead and will accept us into the Beloved by accepting the work that He did on the Cross.
Let's help others to know the Good News so we can all be His Family.

What are you looking for? It's good to make a wish list and be very real. But then take it to the Lord and His Word and discern how "on track" you are. It can be humbling, but it also can be VERY HELPFUL! Then do your best to understand what His will is from His Word and get some things reconciled. It is probably NOT as bad as what you thought! The Word will reveal to you what you CAN do - it will give instruction and encouragement! See how Jesus spoke to people in the four books of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John of the Bible. He reached them!

I am not (on purpose) going to act like I am anything or anyone that I am not. I see a lot of people who act bigger than their calling and this "aura" surrounds them like what happened to THEM is better than others. This SO DEFEATS the Cause of Christ in His Redemption work! Some just can't resist that, and then they make all these "special distinctions" that set them apart from others! That is the spirit of the Pharisees!!! I don't know if Americans or others can get cured of that or not! I am strong in my gift now, because of my sincere efforts, but it wasn't always that way!

Prophecy is not magic. In fact, it is not a skill, although some are experienced in it. But that is not the strength of it. Prophecy is not "man" controlled or "man" originated words of God. Prophecy is words of God expressed through man, and the gift is God originated. I believe God would be pleased if everyone could speak the oracles of God because it would mean that they are close enough to Him to do it! Because God is a Spirit, the words of God are close to His Heart, and relate to His will and His intentions. True prophetic words are not meant to show off about the future or anything else but His will, but prophetic words are communications of His will.
