Isaiah 12:4 “In that glorious day, you will say to one another, “Give thanks to the Lord and ask him for more! Tell the world about all that he does! Let them know how magnificent he is!””

Beloved,

Tell the world! Go into all the places, the four corners of the earth, into the deepest of regions, even those that have not been touched yet. Bring with you, only what you need for the day. Travel light, and trust in the Father to provide everything you need, in the moment. Carry a small vessel of oil, use it to anoint those that are sick and ill, or injured. Open their eyes and ears, so they might see and hear. Know what is needed in every moment, because of the Holy Spirit that lives within you. Your heart will become a well, where wisdom pours out and discernment comes easy. Break bread with the stranger, with those, who have no one. Introduce them to the one, that is all.

Grow in these things. Learn much in these days, so that when it is needed, it will be ready. Even your dreams or visions, write them down, even if for another time. The Kingdom of God is filled with such treasures, that rains down daily. It is a river flowing from the throne of God. The current carries many things, all are good, then some are better, and even others are the best. We have choices to make. To gather that which is most needed in the moment. We should always be in the river, for there is constant life in the pools and eddies. At times, you may find yourself facing downstream, and still you can gather. But look upstream as much as possible, for that is where your help comes from.

Know the season. The water will never decrease, and its current never slack. The good things in the water will be necessary at times, but then are let go back into the river. The better things, they too will provide much help when needed, but also can be released back into the water. It is the best things that should be held onto and placed securely in your heart. These can be used often and frequently, even over and over again. Hope, faith, praise, worship, prayer, love, patience, endurance, and courage are just some of the best things. Maintain these in your satchel, so they will be readily available.

Drink often from this river. And the fruit hanging from the trees along its edge will never run out. Enjoy the sweet nectar, the moist meat of the bloom, and every drip that falls. In this world, the river may not be seen at times, due to circumstance. But trust in faith and not by sight. Know that God’s river flows all around you and in you, all the time. Sometimes, I pick up a small smooth stone from the river’s bed, and keep it close. When doubt comes my way, I retrieve the small stone and hold it in my hand. I rub my fingers over its smooth surface and I am reminded of the river and I turn to face upstream, to look toward heaven’s door which is always open to me.

I open my hands and the exact thing that I need is soon in my palm. I close my hand around it and bring it my heart. Soon the answer comes, the healing is released, and a smile comes, a knowing smile, a realization of Truth that was purchased on a Cross by the Son of God.

Yesterday I mentioned to a group of people, “Just look in the eyes of a child and you will find Him.”

It is entirely possible to remain in the river at all times. It might be difficult, but it is possible.

It is possible.
