When I acquire a target, I set its heart in My sights. Then I take careful aim, deciding when to pull back My bow and send My “Arrow of Truth” sailing towards this mark. For just like an archer who studies his game, I carefully consider those I see holding value: the ones who would fit splendidly in amongst My chosen, those I cherish as My most prized possessions.
Do not be afraid when turbulent waters enter your land and things around you appear to be grim because those in power, who are seated in high places, make choices to try and silence My voice. This is the way of man. For sin has taken hold of his heart, and so he makes plans to shut down anyone who would shine the light on his darkness and expose him for what he truly is. Any attempt to keep My words quiet will fail, for I am able to speak over the walls man tries to erect!
What is it that defines a man?
What are the words used to describe who he is? Are the words or phrases colorful, depicting a cheery fellow, or dark and dreary because his disposition seems rather cloudy? What is it about a person who tells others who he is? Is it by reviewing his general countenance, such as his posture or facial expressions? Or something beyond his physical appearance, maybe those things he owns? Or is it his career, how he makes a living? What are the key elements which speak out to others, that give someone the voice to say, “This is who I am”, so that when another thinks of him, there is no question about his identity regarding the “type” of person he is?
Down to the ground, he sank, his knees buckling under the strain he suffered as sorrow and grief took control of his heart, devastated by the sudden news he had received.
Without planning for its appearance, sadness stepped in at that hour, bringing dark tidings with an improper introduction, giving no advanced notice or early warning, nothing to signal heartbreak would be coming. Absent of manners, pain rushed in taking over his world like an unwelcome guest, as one not well received, yet with plans for an extended stay, hoping to remain for quite a while.
Remember the days of yesterdays past when life was simple and carefree; when brilliant sunshine would send bare feet scampering for the door, unconcerned by mussed hair and misshapen clothes. For to grab every minute of the day’s golden rays was set as the highest priority, and the only burden came from knowing dusk would arrive before it was welcome. Yet, always hoping the sun would forget he needed a rest and be pleased to continue beaming so the day would never come to an end.
I am the One sure thing, the only true King, the Maker of heaven and earth, the Creator of all that would be; The One who vanquished the enemy and removed the power from all of his schemes, who took the world from the brink of utter darkness through the saving light of salvation’s path.
Automation has made life easier for man, so he has become accustomed to living life with relative ease. For now, absent are the hours of hard labor, of exerting physical energy just to keep living. Anymore, machines have taken many of the places intended for him, limiting the sources of potential income. Yet,
In wave upon wave, My presence flows through the generations of man.
In cascading rolls, I move, washing over the earth in its entirety without leaving a single corner untouched by My will. Like a flood upon dry ground, My movements saturate the land, filling it with the good intentions I have designed to permeate, in a fluid fashion, the hardened hearts of all man; enveloping each life into My plan, and creating a deeper connection with those who are chosen to carry the legacy of My kingdom into the nations of this world. For these know their true heritage lies beyond this realm, extends past this life into the place where eternity is held.
I am the gravity that holds your soul in place and keeps it from running astray; as if your feet were bound in heavy shoes set in the ground of My grace. For you cannot be moved out of this position as one of My children, there is no force when applied that can break the eternal bond we have formed, or shake you from the steady grip of My love. This stated affection is the sound weight which has been applied towards all who are My chosen, as the anchor of their inner being, the guarantee given upon entering the partnership of salvation; thus establishing each in this permanent position with Me.
Where faith and love collide, this is the intersection of our meeting, when your heart decided to believe in Me, to give Me a chance, and said “Yes”. Now we are joined together in this beautiful dance where the continuing flow of My goodness is lavished upon you. With an elongated motion to the movement of time, I have orchestrated a relationship which is carried throughout your lifetime, until, at last, you stand at eternity’s door where the hosts of heaven will be waiting to greet each of those I call My children, identified by the mark of salvation.
