It
Is More Blessed to Give Than to
Receive

MY
MESSAGE TO YOU TONIGHT IS TO
RELEASE YOURSELF FROM THE BONDAGE OF
THINGS AND GIVE TO THOSE IN NEED.
YOU WILL BE FREER AND THEY WILL
BE BLESSED AND PRAISE MY FATHER
IN HEAVEN BECAUSE OF YOU.”

“My
Precious Brides, the world will take
an endless amount of time away
from you if you let it. It
is a voracious animal that can
never get its fill. Part of that
is your own desire natures, the
other part are circumstances you have
little or no control over. I recognize
you both in your circumstances that
can't be avoided and in your
Martha lists. I say to you, be
vigilant and cut, cut, cut that
list back every day.
“The
more you want, the more entangled
you get. Things require maintenance,
storage, time, energy and money.
To have nothing is the absolute
ideal, but not practical for very
many. Yet you can approach that
freedom out of free will. When
you begin to see 'things' as a
lead weight around your neck, you
will long for freedom and get
rid of them, which in itself is
a costly undertaking.”
Wow.
You can say that again!
“But
you don't want Me to, do you?”
No,
Lord, I wish I never had things!
Please don’t say that again! They
are a burden and I remember the
last time wanted to get rid
of them, it was an ordeal to
dispose of them properly. I wish
I could just take what we need
and the rest would disappear.
“Everyday,
find something you don't need, and
in a very short time you will
be much freer than you are now,
My Love. Yes, you do have too much,
but disposing of it is difficult
when you care where it goes.
”I
just don't want to waste anything,
Lord. There are people who need things
and that's what I want to make
sure to provide.
“It's
better to let go than to get
entangled.
“MY
BRIDES, THE DEVILS ARE VERY CLEVER
WHEN IT COMES TO YOUR GOOD
INTENTIONS. THEY KNOW FULL WELL THAT
YOU WISH TO DO WHAT IS RIGHT.
BUT IF YOU COMMIT YOUR WAY
TO ME, AND RELEASE THESE THINGS
INTO MY HANDS, IT WILL BE
BETTER FOR YOU THAN IF YOU
STRUGGLE TO PLACE THEM ONE BY
ONE. I PROMISE, YOU WILL GET
ENTANGLED WHEN YOU ALLOW YOURSELF TO
STAY ATTACHED.
“THERE
IS AN ART TO LIVING IN FREEDOM;
IT TAKES PRAYER AND PRACTICE. I WILL
GUIDE YOU INTO THAT FREEDOM IF
YOU ARE WILLING TO LET GO.
AS YOU GROW OLDER, YOU TEND TO
FIND MORE SECURITY IN THINGS, WHICH
UNFORTUNATELY TURN INTO CHAINS THAT
ROB YOU OF TIME AND STRENGTH-‐WHICH
IS EXACTLY WHAT YOU DON’T WANT
TO WASTE AS YOU GROW OLDER.
AND THERE IS NO SECURITY IN
THINGS. SECURITY COMES FROM ME ALONE.
Lord,
I remember how it was with my
mother before she passed. For several
years, she just couldn’t let go
of everything she had. She took
everything from her business and
moved it into her beautiful living
room that she’d created to enjoy
during her retirement years. But it
was FILLED with boxes! Everywhere -‐you
couldn’t even walk. It had a
beautiful vaulted ceiling and stained
glass, the view of a lake; it was
just beautiful. But she couldn’t
enjoy any of it, because it was
filled with the trapping of her
former business that she just
couldn’t let go of. It was
reallysad. And after she passed,
there were tons and tons of
magazines, clothing, and miscellaneous
articles that filled dumpster after
dumpster. They were of no use
to anyone.
“This
is part of the American lifestyle
and I am addressing it because
you avoid dealing with it. And I
see how it weighs you down. And
It
takes mental and physical energy away
from Us and our relationship. When
you go into prayer and begin to
relax, a plethora of unaccomplished
business floods your mind. Rather
than fighting that, write it down
quickly and come back to Me in
prayer. It does have to do with
the way your brain functions. If you
try to fight it, you will get
caught in a never-‐ending
merry-‐go-‐round, over and over
and over again. If you write it
down for later, you can dismiss
it and return to Me.
“What
you, My Love, are experiencing right now
is an exercise in detachment. I
need you to let go, Clare. Give
things away; be freed from them. Your
prayers will become much more
powerful as you clear the decks
of these distractions. Prayers being
interrupted do take a toll on
your concentration and on our
relationship. I wish for you to be
free and right now you are
anything but. I will help you,
as I promised earlier.”
Thank
you, Lord.
“I
just want you to recognize that
you are not exempt from the
feelings age brings on. You, too, will be
reticent and attached, but by My
grace you will let go and be
happier for it.
“MY
BRIDES-‐SOME THINGS YOU ARE HANGING
ONTO, IN MY EYES, BELONG TO OTHERS.
THEY HAVE OUTLIVED THEIR USEFULNESS IN
YOUR LIVES AND IT'S TIME TO LET
THEM GO BECAUSE OTHERS NEED THEM.
THE LAST THING YOU WANT TO DO
IS BECOME A BLACK HOLE WHERE
EVERYTHING DISAPPEARS. I WOULD RATHER
YOU BE A LINK IN THE CHAIN OF
DISTRIBUTION SO I CAN TRUST YOU
TO SHARE WITH THOSE IN NEED.
THIS IS AN IMPORTANT FUNCTION IN
MY KINGDOM, THE DISTRIBUTION OF
GOODS.
”Right
now you have plenty and can
help those who are in need.
Later, they will have plenty and
can share with you when you are
in need. In this way, things
will be equal. 2 Corinthians 8:14
“My
Father in Heaven is generous and
gives to all without discrimination,
to the good and bad alike.
”Matt
5:45..."He causes His sun to
rise on the evil and the good,
and sends rain on the righteous
and the unrighteous."
“Therefore,
be like Him and share. Your
witness will do much to further
My Kingdom. People will praise God
because of your generosity. Greed and
avarice are not becoming of My
Bride and soon you will be in
Heaven and have no need for any
of those things.
Well,
I am saving a few things for
my children.
“Yes,
well you would be surprised at
how little they will want in
the end. Just keep an eye out
for the poor and be a blessing
to those who are truly suffering
want. In Heaven, this is one of
the main considerations of your rank
and how much good you are able
to accomplish: how generous and detached
you were on Earth, and how
solicitous you were towards others.
“I
do not wish to belabor this
topic, but I do want you all
to understand that, as you give what
is no longer useful for you,
the things you need come back
around to you from many different
sources. But you should never give
to get, that is a terrible
distortion of the gospel!
“I
told you "Give,
and it will be given to you.
They will pour into your lap a
good measure-‐-‐pressed down,
shaken together, and running over.
For by your standard of measure
it will be measured to you in
return." Luke 6:38
“Your
giving should be without an eye
to return; from the motive of love
for your brother, not from the
motive of greed and avarice. I
gave this Scripture to reassure you
of My providential care when you
let things go, not to use the
dynamic
as a lottery of sorts. This is
detestable to Me. What I honor
is the open hands and loving
heart, not the clever investments
with an eye to your return.
“There
is a principle
in Heaven that will never fail
you, ‘Do all from
the pure motive of Love.’ When
you live your life around this
self-‐sacrificing principle, you are
truly laying up riches in Heaven
and the great glory that accompanies
a loving soul in Heaven is beyond
your comprehension. Love is the acid
test for Heaven. Did you learn to
love and to give, or did you
learn to horde and protect? Oh,
the darkness surrounding the latter kind
of soul!
“SO,
MY MESSAGE TO YOU TONIGHT IS TO
RELEASE YOURSELF FROM THE BONDAGE OF
THINGS AND GIVE TO THOSE IN NEED.
YOU WILL BE FREER AND THEY WILL
BE BLESSED AND PRAISE MY FATHER
IN HEAVEN BECAUSE OF YOU.”
“Remember
what I have told you,
It
is more blessed to give than to
receive. Acts 20:35”
