"Silence is golden." I hear you exclaim this after a busy day when the sounds of this world whirled around you like a roaring tornedo. There are so many voices in this world that distract you from hearing My voice. I am so grateful when you take the time just to sit in My presence.
Truly, those times are golden moments for Me because it is during those times that I can have a heart to heart, spirit to spirit encounter with you. It is during those times that you can hear Me sing a love song to you. It is during those quiet times in My presence that I can impart My strength to you for the day ahead.
My servant David learned to still his soul. I am so thankful that you have learned to do this also. When you still your soul, you no longer hear those phrases, "I think, I feel, I want." Instead, you hear what I am thinking, what I am feeling, and what I want in your life. Of course, My thoughts are much higher than yours and many of My ways are past finding out, but My Spirit can reveal many of My thoughts to you as you meditate on My Word in quietness. My Spirit can also open the eyes of your understanding to better comprehend My true character in those quiet moments in My presence.
Take time every morning to still your soul, and you will discover much about Me.
ISAIAH 30:15; PSALM 131:2

STRENGH
I have heard you on many days sigh and pray, "Lord, give me strength." Today I want to reveal to you three secrets to receiving My strength. On the night of our Passover meal together, I told the disciples three things that would give them strength in the days ahead. Those three things were:
1. Abide in Me
2. Abide in My Word
3. Abide in My love
After I shared with My disciples on our last night together, I said, "These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you and that your joy may be full." Truly, it is My joy that will give you strength for today and every day. It is My joy that will set the sails of your soul to keep moving forward no matter what fierce winds of adversity may assail you.
When you enjoy spending time in My presence today, My joy will flood your soul. When you spend time in My Word today and ask My Holy Spirit to teach you My truths, My joy will flood your soul. When you reach out to Me in love and then to others, My joy will flood your soul. My joy is your strength for today and every day.
JOHN 15: 4, 7, 11, 12; NEHEMIAH 8:9-10

HAPPY HAPPENINGS
Many of my beloved base their happiness on what is happening in the moment or even on the dreams they have for the future. They forget that the happenings of every day are in My hands. They forget to commit their works, will, and way to Me so that I can lead and guide them by My Holy Spirit.
I often choose not to interfere with your day if you choose to go your own way. Unpleasant circumstances can happen in the span of a day simply because you live in a fallen world. However, I can see you through every situation you face in a day if you want Me to help you.
Always remember that the happenings around you cannot bring you true happiness. Happiness is only temporary, but My joy is permanent. You can rejoice in the midst of trials because My joy indwells you. Draw from the wells of joy this day and recognize that My joy will sustain you through every happening in your life.
JAMES 1:2-4

REQUIREMENTS
So much is required of an individual in the world's system. You are required to perform well on your job or you will lose it. You are required to make good grades in school or you will fail. There are only three things I require of you as you walk through life with Me. Those three things are to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with Me.
Never feel like you have to meet these requirements alone. I am the One Who will work through you to meet these requirements. I am the only One Who is truly just because I know what is in the hearts of people. I am the only One Who has infinite mercy. My mercy endures to every generation.
Daily humble yourself in My presence by offering your body as a living sacrifice and committing your day into My hands. When you do this, I will empower you to meet every requirement in My kingdom.

FEAR
Always fight fear, but never do this in your own strength. Fear is Satan's anesthesia tailor made to paralyze you so that he can do his diabolical surgery on your soul. Fear is usually the frontal attack Satan uses against you.
I know the times you have allowed fear to overwhelm you. During those times, I so wanted to reach out to help you. However, in order for fear to leave, you must pick up your spiritual weapons and fight it. Call upon My name out loud, and command the spirit of fear to leave you. I am then able to fight your battle. Angels hearken to the voice of My Word. Whenever you feel the heaviness of fear coming upon you, say out loud, "I will trust in the Lord and not be afraid.
My servant David learned to fight fear. He encountered that wicked enemy most of his life. The moment he felt fear coming upon him, he proclaimed, "When I am afraid, I will trust in the Lord." My disciples were often paralyzed by fear. When they encountered the storm on the sea, I was asleep in the boat. They could not understand why I was in perfect peace. I can always calm the storm that causes fear in your life. Believe that and use your spiritual weapons today to fight fear. Speak My Word out loud, and I will do battle for you.
Do not fear, little flock for it is My Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.

STRIFE
Strife is very wearing on the body and the soul. Whenever you enter strife, you have entered the realm of darkness where demons love to play. They love to take hold of your tongue and use it as a weapon to say hurtful words to others.
I exhort you today, cease from strife and seek peace and pursue it. The fruit of strife is always rotten. I exhort you to be kind and tender hearted towards one another. Love others as I have loved you. Do not allow Satan to use you to accuse, criticize, and judge others. Release all judgment to Me because I am the only One who can see the hearts of people.
MATTHEW 7:2; JOHN 7:24; 5:30; EPHESIANS 4:32; 1 JOHN 4:7-8; PHILIPPIANS 2:3-4

HEAVEN ON EARTH
When you pray, "Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on Earth as it is in heaven, think about how things are in heaven. There is no sickness or sorow in heaven. There is no worry or fear in heaven. There is no hatred and suffering in heaven. When you pray this prayer I taught My disciples, you open up a highway in the spirit realm that enables My Holy Spirit and My Holy angels to minister to you. This is why prayer is so important.
Instead of worrying, pray and My peace will evelope you. Instead of being fearful, pray and I will infuse you with My courage and strength. Instead of feeling sorry for yourself, pray and you will see how much I love you. Pray without ceasing today and you wil be able to experience heaven on Earth today.
MATTHEW 6:10; PHILIPPIANS 4:6-7
