The Reign/Rain of Joy!

The Father says today,

"Beloved, there are some old stories that return to you every season when the leaves fall and stick to the ground. The memories of those days send you cascading into sorrow. This day let there be light. Time is now to pen a new story and a new outcome. I have overcome those dark dank days, Beloved. The dust bowl is gone and the remedy in the new soil is in this promised land. It is time to water that land with Praise and put away the tears of sorrow. Praise me. Praise me so your neighbors hear the ruckus and want to join in the jamboree. I am here now to tell you- Joy is here. In the middle of such turmoil and in the middle of such a night watch battle, joy is discovered as a treasure plucked out of the darkness. Like a diamond glistening in the light of the morning, so sets the light of Joy upon your heart. My heart for your heart Beloved. That is why I died for you- so you could have this gift of joy. Take it as one takes an engagement ring. I delight in you and no darkness, no mistake, no past sorrows will take that from Me- don't let the things of this world rob you of the delight you have found in Me. Let me lift your head, let me lend you my shoulder. Walk with Me today through the rainstorms of this world and dance with Me through the puddles instead.

Splash your adversary with Joy and see that beast run off scampering. Clear your room as you have cleared your fields of the rock and debris. Words are all it takes: pray out loud and demand that spirit leave! This is YOUR territory, not your adversary's. I am here with you now. I have come to earth now, within you- feel My presence radiate back and keep you warm from the impending winter- They will say of you, Spring has sprung in your steps! While everyone is worried you will be dancing, singing and loving the least of these into the kingdom. You thought the enemy distracted you because of your recent night-watches but I have made it so you will surprise your adversary by responding in JOY. Bring light into the heavy! Right now the earth is leaning forward to see what you will do- if you see something wrong and no one is speaking about it, perhaps it is time for YOU to act, Beloved. I called YOU to reign as one of my kings! So rule. I am with you every step of the way, and because you know My voice your success is sure. Receive My favor now Beloved. I am forever for you," says the Father.

May the kindness of God’s grace and peace overflow to you from him who is, and who was, and who is to come, and from the seven spirits who are in front of his throne, and from Jesus Christ the Faithful Witness, the Firstborn from among the dead and the ruling King, who rules over the kings of the earth!

Now to the one who constantly loves us and has loosed us from our sins by his own blood, and to the one who has made us to rule as a kingly priesthood to serve his God and Father—to him be glory and dominion throughout the eternity of eternities! Amen!

Revelation 1:4-6 (TPT)
