Be as Radiant as the Son!

The Father says today,

"Beloved child of mine, you must practice talking less and listening more because I have a lot to say to you. I want you to have a preview of what I am about to do. Stay with me. Come close every day. Your ideas are awesome ideas, LIFE ideas that strike lightning and resuscitate dead hearts. You will LIVE a vibrant life! Practice VIBRANCY in all that you do! Give gifts of VIBRANCY! Be VIBRANT in your living and you will experience such a radiance shine forth from your skin! Do not back away. Shame is a thing of long ago. I don't even like mentioning the word, because shame is no longer your portion, says the Father. You are NOT without. Your promises will be like many children running around a schoolyard chasing after you, laughing and giggling wildly! They will catch you! You will LIVE and share your radiance. BE RADIANT! Wear the radiance of My love, says the Father so that people can see my VIBRANCY in you and around you- all around you!

Lord, prove them wrong when they say, “God can’t help you!” Let the light of your radiant face break through and shine upon us! Psalm 4:6 TPT

"The earth is dark, but for those who love Me, it is a vibrant and radiant place as My kingdom heaven drops like dew all around. See with new eyes this day! I have exchanged one season for another already, and Beloved, it isn't a season of sorrows, but one of great joy! You will laugh again. In the midst of winter, you will begin to experience feelings of spring. You will step out of the winter cold and into the radiance of new light and newness of life- a new day springs forth- a new sigh of relief rises up from the frozen ground. Beneath the winter snow, life is already blossoming within the caverns hidden between the stony places. I am warming the hearts, young and old, of those whose hearts were frozen by pain and the cares of this world. You will melt away the outer layers as you come closer and melt into my presence.

The precepts of the Lord are right, giving joy to the heart. The commands of the Lord are radiant, giving light to the eyes. Psalm 19:8 NIV

"As the sun rises and warms your face, the winter seed will find warmth and begin to grow. Forgotten flowers and vegetation will raise up out of the earth as a sign, a wonder and a reminder that My promises will never return to me void. You will look out the window and see a flower and even a tree that you thought was long gone push up from the ground and succeed. My moisture of promise is coming for you- the cloud that once was described as small as a man's hand has entered your atmosphere- that cloud isn't above you, Beloved- you're in it! You can't see right now because you are standing in the very center of my cloud of promise! You are about to experience the first rain of the forgotten promise. Feel me touch your cheek, as the first ray of sunshine breaks through the dark and dreary land. Your promise comes now like a low hanging rain cloud beneath a dark sky. As the battle wages all around, your promise will reach you and your enemy will be caught off guard. Do you hear that? It's the sound of lightning in the middle of winter! Ready or not, your first promise is about to arrive at your door," declares the Father.

Because you received a double dose of shame and dishonor, you will inherit a double portion of endless joy and everlasting bliss! Isaiah 61:7 TPT

Hello! Darcy here. I wanted to let you know that I have been in a deep time with the Father, listening and making sure I am doing these posts for all of the right reasons. To listen to the Father and spend time with him takes time. It is an honor to hear his voice and share his heart with his children. I take it very seriously when I give a prophetic word. I have been greatly hurt by organized religion in the past, and it didn't stop last season. When the Lord says, I will never leave you or forsake you, (Joshua 1:5) he means just that. Rejection is the most painful experience I have ever had in the church. God never rejects us. I wanted to make sure I wasn't prophecying out of my pain. I was very lonely the night before and praying throughout the night watch when I turned to Jesus and said, "I'm all alone. Will you pray with me?" It was a tender moment for us both... a healing moment for me.

As I listentined to the Father this morning a literal cloud surrounded my home in Colorado while I was writing the word. Even now as I write this I am surrounded by a low hanging cloud mid-winter. There is much I can interpret about this, but one thing is sure, we are never alone. You, my sister, my brother are never alone and you are never rejected by our Father.

[ The Great Cloud of Witnesses ] As for us, we have all of these great witnesses who encircle us like clouds. So we must let go of every wound that has pierced us and the sin we so easily fall into. Then we will be able to run life’s marathon race with passion and determination, for the path has been already marked out before us. Hebrews 12:1 TPT

I think I'm ready to run!

God bless you!
