Power in You

From my journal, August 4, 2010

This was a word of encouragement the Lord spoke over me that I think is appropriate for all of His children. I pray that it will build you up and give you hope!

“I love you with an everlasting love. My power lives in you and cannot be carried off as the ark was carried off in the day of Eli. Do not fear. I am always with you, in you, surrounding you. Do not despair when you face challenges. Do not give up when you feel weak—give in to my power. Surrender yourself—your ideas, goals, dreams—to me. Surrender your plans for the future. Seek first my kingdom, and all these things will be added unto you.

You are not rejected but protected. Stand firm and do not let the enemy re-conquer the promised land that you have taken. Do not surrender to fear or depression or hardship, but revel in my miracle-working power that is working in you, through you, and around you.”
