My beloved I will never leave you, never forsake you. I formed you before the foundations of this world. Even before you uttered your first breath, I had My plan for your life all laid out. You are Mine, says the Lord. I purchased you with My precious blood. I endured the pain of the cross just for you. Why, you ask, why would the King of Glory exchange his kingly crown for a crown of thorns? Because you are My hearts desire. I created you to have fellowship and relationship with you. I know you are not perfect, because I discern your thoughts afar off. When Adam sinned and the separation came, I had to come to restore that perfect fellowship that was lost. And that is what I have come to do today. I have come to bring restoration and healing. I have come to give you hope where there was none.

I have a wonderful plan and purpose for you. You do not know how big it is, but know that until then I am working in you, fine tuning areas that needed it and bringing restoration to that broken place. I am the Lord, who has brought you out of Egypt into the Promised Land. Endure this small time of the wilderness, and know that I shall be your pillar of cloud by day, and fire by night. Though you pass through the waters, they shall not overflow you. For in this little fiery trial, you shall endure because I have made you an overcomer. If God be for you, who can be against you? Therefore rise up and take the land, knowing that the Lord your God shall go before you and behind you, to make the paths straight. Narrow and rugged that path may be, but through it all you will learn to trust in Me, and not your own understanding to take you over to the other side.

No longer desire the fields of Goshen, for that is in the past and is a closed door. Instead go forth and claim that land from the river Jordan to the Euphrates, the land where My abundance thrives and there is a rich harvest. In all this I have not left you nor abandoned you. Sometimes you feel as if I am not there. I do this in order to allow you to seek after Me and know the everlasting satisfaction of finding the Lord. You may call it ‘hide and seek’, but know that I desire for us to be One in Spirit and in Truth. Trust Me to take you to the other side. Trust Me to provide for all you needs according to My glorious riches. You are My own, and I love you, says the Lord
