Each day brings new challenges. Look at these challenges as opportunities for Me to move mountains on your behalf. Speak to the challenges and say, "I am more than a conqueror through Jesus Christ who loves Me." Say, "Thank You, Lord, that You have overcome the world and that there is nothing too hard for You." Say, "In the world I know there will be tribulation, but I can be of good cheer because You have overcome the world."
Believe what I have told you in My Word. Receive what I have told you into your heart and then move in faith as if it has already been done on earth. I am always blessed when you extend your faith to Me and thank Me ahead of time for the answers to the petitions you have made.
ROMANS 8:37; JOHN 16:33

TENDERNESS
Tenderness is needed in these last days. Tenderness is a fruit of My Holy Spirit's anointing of understanding. Wisdom and understanding are coupled together. You may have all knowledge, but if you lack understanding you cannot apply wisdom to your heart. Understanding is the bridge that must be built in your life.
I have understanding. I understand the thoughts and intents of the hearts of people. I know your heart. When I walked on Earth, I understood why the religious leaders rejected Me. I did not give up, however. I constantly tried to speak the truth to them, but they did not have ears to hear.
Never give up on those whose eyes are closed and ears are shut as you speak to them. The seed you sow in them will one day bear fruit because My Word never returns void. It always accomplishes what it is sent out to do. I was not tender with those religious leaders, but My heart was so grieved when they rejected Me. My love to them was tender. I cried and wanted to gather everyone to Me, but they would not.
Have a tender heart when you pray for others. Your tears of tenderness will bear fruit one day. Be tenderhearted, love and forgive one another. Ask the Me today to give you understanding of others, and your relationships will be healed.

WISDOM
I am all wisdom. Because you are in Me, you have the wisdom from God, the righteousness from God, the sanctification from God and the redemption from God. Operate in that wisdom today.
You can discern whether or not you are operating in My wisdom if the fruits of that wisdom are pure, peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy, without paritality, and without hypocrisy. Those good fruits will naturally come as you yield to My wisdom instead of trusting in your carnal wisdom.
I desire for you to always look beyond the evidence to what I can do. Faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen. If you make your plans simply based on the natural evidence, you limit My ability to emerse your plans with My Holy Spirit. He sees into the future and you do not.
Most of the disasters that happened to My beloved throughout time happened because they did not seek My wisdom. Every morning ask for My wisdom to operate through you that day and it is My delight and joy to give it to you. You have not because you ask not.

UNDERSTANDING
Understanding is the bridge between knowledge and wisdom. Many of My beloved obtain knowledge of Me, but they do not know Me intimately. Intimacy with Me can only be developed as you spend time in My presence and in My Word. It is My Spirit Who dispenses the understanding of My Word.
As you read My Word ask My Spirit to help you hear My voice speaking to you Spirit to spirit. My words are Spirit and they are Life. You will miss My clear instructions to you if you just read My Word without hearing My voice speaking to you one on one.
Faith comes by hearing and hearing by My Word. Ask Me to answer these questions for you as you read My Word: "Lord, is there a lesson You want to teach Me?; Is there a direction You want Me to go?; Is there a Word you want me to give to someonelse?; Is there a promise You want me to claim?; Is there a prayer from Your Word that You want me to pray?"
I am a story teller. Read the Word and let Me narrate the story to you by My Holy Spirit. When you do this, reading My Word will be exciting.

MINISTRY
Take what is at hand and then give it to Me. I will then bless it and multiply it. When I fed the multitudes, My disciples took what was at hand and gave it to Me. I blessed the loaves and the fishes and they were multiplied. Thousands were fed.
Be observant in the days ahead. Look at what each day holds - the plans you hope to fulfill and the places that you plan to go. Think about where you will be and what you will be doing. Then give your plans to Me and ask Me to lead you to the places I want you to go. First thing in the morning, give the minutes of that day to Me. I will then be able to multiply the fruitfulness of the ministry I have given you that day.
So many of My beloved hope for the day when they will have some great ministry. The truth is that I have already given them a great ministry each moment of the day. Whoever you are speaking to at the moment and wherever you are at the moment is the time I have given you to allow Me to speak through you and to minister in the power of My Spirit to others.
My disciples had no idea of the multiplication power I had when they offered what was at hand to Me. You will be amazed at the multiplication of My influence through you on other lives during each day if you will present each moment of the day to Me. Faith does not operate in the future. It operates in the now. Whoever is in front of you each moment is the person or people I have given you to allow My Spirit to touch through you.

LOVE LIFE
How is your love life? This is a common question asked by people in the world. Now I ask you that question because love is what life should be all about. The life in the Spirit is not complicated. It is a life that can only be demonstrated by a person whose heart is filled with My love.
I exhorted My disciples to only do three things just before I went to the cross , and I knew those three things would enable them to live a life that demonstrated My love to all. I told them to abide in Me, abide in My Word, and abide in My love. I told them that the whole law is fulfilled by only two commandments - love the Lord with all your heart and your neighbor as yourself.
When you follow those instructions daily, your heart will have no room for the lusts of the flesh- fulfilling your senses in an addictive way; the lust of the eyes- greedy longings in your mind; and the lust of the pride of life - seeking your own will instead of mine.
JOHN 15; 13:34
Daily ask Me to cleanse your heart of all bitterness and unforgiveness and then receive a fresh infilling of My love in your heart. When you do this what you say and do during the day will be motivated by My love. I led a simple life while I walked on earth. My only motivation was to do and say what pleased My Father. Do the same today and you will experience the fruits of love - peace and joy.

FRIENDS
The day came when I told My disciples that I was their friend. I am also your friend. However, never allow My friendship with you to lessen the fact that I am also your Lord. I am the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords.
Bask today in the awe of My holiness and power. As you look at the sunrise and the sunset and observe the stars, recognize that by Me, for Me, and through Me everything that is was created.
There is much in My Word about fearing Me. You fear Me when you have a reverent respect for My power and you worship Me with an obedient heart. Many blessings will be poured out upon you as you remain daily in an attitude of awe of Me and an attitude of gratitude for all I have done for you through My sacrifice and My resurrection.
I created you to glorify Me by making My presence known on earth through what you say and what you do. Make that your first priority daily, and you will be amazed at the opportunities I will give you to be a light shining in this dark world. I desire for you to talk with Me like a friend, but I also desire for you to humble yourself and worship Me in spirit and in truth.
LUKE 12:4-5; JOHN 15:13-14; COLOSSIANS 1:16; PSALM 128:1-4
