When I was asked to bring forth a word for the offering, immediately the Lord started poured out what I should say. It might not be the traditional message one would hear at this time but it was He gave. The first thought He gave me was whatever you give to the least of these you give unto Me. The second thought was to plant a seed by faith and expect a bumper crop. It isn't in the amount of monetary value in that seed but the amount of the faith of God that you attach to it.

When I was asked to bring forth a word for the offering, immediately the Lord started poured out what I should say.
It might not be the traditional message one would hear at this time but it was He gave.
The first thought He gave me was whatever you give to the least of these you give unto Me.
The second thought was to plant a seed by faith and expect a bumper crop.
It isn't in the amount of monetary value in that seed but the amount of the faith of God that you attach to it.
All God expects is that we be faithful, yielded and obedient to give whatever the Lord places upon your heart.
He doesn't expect sacrifice but that we obey.
Examine your heart to see what is the true motivation for what you do. Is it the pressure that comes from man or is it from the grace that flows from the Father's heart?
God does not look upon the outward actions but looks to the motives of the heart.
You need to separate the true flow of His spirit and obey that.
Cast down all other thoughts that are just vain empty imaginings that will not bring forth good fruit.
If one would only obey God by placing His kingdom first, then all other needs of your own will be met.
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your path.
When you see a need give it to Him and watch Him work out all the circumstances and bring it forth in His timing and in His way.

Be still and know that I AM God. Appreciate that you have the time to be quiet and still before Him. Many people do not have this precious freedom where they can quiet their minds before Him. This is the day where many have fallen short of the glory of God. They have given into the devices of the evil one to steal, kill and destroy the innocence of many of My loved ones. The little foxes have been allowed to destroy the vine and many have given way to eat that forbidden fruit of deception.

Except that we overcome by grace there is no other way in which we can overcome the onslaughts of the enemy for they are many and we must escape them only by abiding in the Secret Place of the Most High. The Secret Place is our place of habitation where we are being uplifted and strengthened by His abiding grace which is the power that enables us to be able to face the giants knowing that nothing by any means can harm us and if so, that only good will come forth from whatever we have to face and walk through.

This is a season where many are battling discouragement and depression and the oppression of the enemy. I believe this Word is for many and not just for me. "Where have you been, My child? Where have you been running off to and leaving Me behind? You say that you are doing those things for Me that you get involved in but mainly they've all been just distractions from being with Me. Don't allow the enemy to tempt you to justify your actions. Do not believe the lies of the evil one for he only comes to steal, kill, and destroy who you are in Me. He wants you off from others who love Me, and you, so he can have you all to himself.
