Oh Lord, I'm so sorry for my rants today.
"You are tired."
I am also sorry.
“I forgive you Clare, just remember whatever you do for the least of these, truly, you a re doing it for Me. That should make it easier for you to keep your perspective and charity."
Thank you. Please, help me to remember that...
"Like I did today, several times?"
Oh, that WAS You.
"Indeed. And it helped didn't it?"
It did. Thank you. I am ashamed of myself.
"You are very human."
Lord, what is on your heart tonight?
"You have many who are insecure about the Rapture -you aren't the only one."
What do we do?
"Stay in prayer, watch for the signs I send you each day, get Rhemas from your Bible, speak to Me, dearest. Speak your tender heart to Me. I am here to listen and I promised you I would never leave you on your own. I would never give up helping you learn to listen to Me in confidence. I see the shadows of insecurity in your heart. Don't think that everyone who puts up a brave front isn't suffering from the same thing.
"Christian community does not allow for weakness, failure, fear and those very real personal demons you all wrestle with. They are so used to having a band aid Scripture slapped on their owie, they've learned to cover up and show a facade that has nothing to do with their inner feelings. This is sad, it makes certain people look like giants and others look like cowards. From My point of view I can tell you, you are all cowards! So get over it and be real with one another.
"Be approachable, be sincere, be vulnerable, be real. This is where the grace goes, to the lowliest place. The cleansing, enlivening graces flow from My throne down to the lowlands, the little ones, the littlest ones. The weakest ones, those who confess they need Me more than life itself. These are the ones I cherish, because they see themselves for who they truly are in My eyes. David was one of these, he saw Me beside himself, and he knew his stature in My eyes as something to be pitied. And so he didn't waste any time trying to impress others with his greatness; rather he sought Me out in every circumstance from lions to giants, and when he didn't rely on Me, he failed. But even in his failure he came to Me with confidence in My love and Mercy. He had seen it oh so many times before, and He knew My character.
"It is when you don't rely on My wisdom that you fail."
Lord you know I'm struggling tonight again, how do you put up with me?
"Easily, because I know you love Me and in the end My Love will triumph. I can see what your senses, your wisdom are raging at you, let's not leave out the enemy here, he is doing his thing. You are in a battle Clare and your only hope is to totally abandon yourself to Me in complete trust."
"You haven't got long to go, the tests, the temptations, they will be fierce, but as long as you hold fast to Me and what I've told you, you will make it."
Lord, I am just absolutely insecure with the idea of you coming while the Dogwoods are still in bloom. My senses and my reasoning’s are rebelling against this. I am still reasoning that prophecies about a healing ministry and the visions you have given me have their time before the Rapture, as many souls do.
“You are reasoning, this again in your pride and intellect. They are a strong force, Clare and very much opposed to the simplicity of a little child who trusts her Daddy unequivocally.
"But in your heart it is wise to say, ‘Even if He slays me, still I will love Him. Even if He abandons me to error, still I will love Him - even if He allows me to crash and burn, still I will love Him.’ It's about unconditional love and trust, even as someone once said, 'I'm the Lord's little play ball, He can roll me under the bed and leave me there, He can play catch with me, He can hurl me against the wall, He can put me on a shelf and forget about me. What He does with me matters not, that I am all His is what matters.'
"I have offered you My Peace, so put aside all your reasoning’s and cleave to Me with all your heart. Abandon the purse of your own opinion."
Will you please help me, Lord!!!?
"Yes My Dove, indeed I will. And to all My Brides I say, you are in a battle right now, a raging battle of fear, insecurity and doubt, did I not warn you last week that this was coming?”
James 2:2 Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, a whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3 because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. 4 Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. 12 Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.
