Thus says the Lord...
When I have come to you in the past, I have offered you certain things according to the desire of your own heart. But this is a season in which I desire certain things from you, which you have been afraid to offer unto me because of reluctance on your part, and also the presumption of your inability to perform those things. But have I not called you to stretch yourself beyond yourself, even as you now know yourself to be. I call men faithful because I call them faithful, as Paul has also said unto you that he judged not himself but allowed Me to judge him. I have called you with an everlasting calling, and I will perfect that which concerns you, and I will not forsake the work of my own hands. I have begun a good work in you and shall perfect it unto the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. Do not be presumptuous about what you cannot do, neither run to try to emulate others in things whereunto I have not called you. There are different gifts and even different operations of the same gifts, and I have called each of you to something that sets you apart and makes you unique before others, so you might speak into specific hearts where others are rejected and have no access for a multitude of reasons. Now I am come unto you to work in your heart and mind that which is uniquely and differently pleasing unto me. So yield yourself unto my Spirit in all that you say and do, whether in your downsitting or your uprising, your going out and coming back in again, that you may be an example to those round about you, who do not want to be followers of religion, but desire to know me in truth and the uniqueness of the outworking of my life in them, as well as what they have seen in you. Give heed to my Word daily and increase in all these things.
Amen.
