I Will Speak to You...Now

The Father says today,

"You read these words and wonder if I could speak to you in the same way. Well, I am speaking to you now. Pull away, come closer to Me. You can have what you ask for and more. In the quiet still place of your mind, speak your name without speaking. Say your name in the innermost part of you without opening your mouth. That is where I am speaking. Turn up the volume by becoming even quieter. Turn up the volume by closing the blinds, turning off the distractions- all of them- and you will hear me speak your name.

"For I know your name, says the Lord, and I call to you- I want you to know that you can hear Me. I specifically chose that name just for you- it is filled with meaning, it is filled with hope. For my words will not return to Me void and as you search out the meaning of your name and then search even more deeply as it relates to the character of who I am on the inside of you, you will find a deeper love that you have only dreamed of. I am always speaking Beloved, I desire to speak to you directly. I desire that you would share with those who do not yet know My Love the encouraging words that I am speaking.

But the one who prophesies speaks to people for their strengthening, encouraging and comfort. 1 Corinthians 14:3, NIV

"I want all of my children to hear my voice-it isn't about favoritism, but time. The time you spend with Me is an indication of the depths you will go with Me. Come with me, enter in through the narrow gate and as you leave behind the luggage and come as you are, the relief in the quiet place where my small still voice resounds will find you. You say I don't have enough time, I will give you more time! Embrace my hand as you pick up your pen and record what you hear: you will hear Me speaking a better word than what this world can offer you. Empty yourself of fear, doubt, and shortcomings, place before My alter your sin and your cares and worries and lift your head to your Helper. I am here now. I am always waiting, never leaving, wondering about our next conversation and longing for it to be longer. I enjoy you.

"Speak to me and I will speak to you, Beloved. Your pages are empty waiting to be filled with what I would say to you. Align yourself with My word, learn My words for yourself so we can travel into the outer regions where very few dare to go. Your perspective is unique. What I speak to you travels through your interpretive lens of thought and senses and is shaped by what you know and what you have experienced- an original love letter signed by Me- that is how I see you. It is my desire to share that letter with those who can not yet hear that I am for them and not against them.

"As with everything I do, I await your acceptance of this invitation. Won't you join me in that special room where the sun stretches her hands of comfort in the early morning hours? Any time, anywhere I am there already speaking to you. I love you, My Poem. It is you where My thoughts take Me, not rumors of wars or threats of death- it is this relationship with you for which I have already battled and won. Come away with Me now, not later. I Am forever for you and nothing can separate you from My love...not even death. Stop time, enter into my presence- everything you need is here," says the Father.

Psalm 15:1-3 The Passion Translation (TPT)

Living in the Shining Place

15 A poetic song, by King David 1 Lord, who dares to dwell with you? Who presumes the privilege of being close to you, living next to you in your shining place of glory? Who are those who daily dwell in the life of the Holy Spirit? 2 They are passionate and wholehearted, always sincere and always speaking the truth— for their hearts are trustworthy. 3 They refuse to slander or insult others; they’ll never listen to gossip or rumors, nor would they ever harm another with their words.

Matthew 6:31-33 The Voice (VOICE)

31 So do not consume yourselves with questions: What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear? 32 Outsiders make themselves frantic over such questions; they don’t realize that your heavenly Father knows exactly what you need. 33 Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and then all these things will be given to you too.
