“Therefore God exalted Him to the highest place and gave Him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” Philippians 2:9-11
My Precious One,
I never bask in (my due) praise to bolster a fragile ego. I glory in the magnificence of sharing the power of my great name.
Don’t lose heart trusting in me. No matter how things appear, you’re investing in a legacy that will outlast time itself.
In my perfect timing, righteousness will take its place of honor and holiness will crush every throne of wicked rebellion.
My name is the ultimate shelter. Choose humility today and I’ll cover you with the seal of The Almighty…for eternity.”

“Blessed are those who have learned to acclaim you, who walk in the light of your presence, O Lord.” Psalm 89:15
My Precious One,
There’s more than protection, joy and peace in my presence. Not only do I offer these things, I offer myself.
My voice and wisdom can carry you to and through, lighting the paths the enemy hopes you’ll be too distracted to see.
As you praise me, your heart is open to see from my perspective. These are the keys to my kingdom, unlocking the heavenly and opening all the blessings attached-wisdom, peace, encouragement, favor and protection.
Praising me helps your heart focus on me–the only solution and only power that can overcome all that is working to drain you from the fullness of life.”

“The secret things belong to the Lord our God, but the revealed belong to us and our children forever,
that we may follow all the words of this law.” Deuteronomy 29:29
My Precious One,
One word (from me) breathed directly into your heart has the power to jumpstart a whole new perspective and understanding. As a child of my kingdom, it’s imperative to receive, believe and protect your treasure from the lies of the enemy…a ruthless evil working to snatch the truth of what I say…
I speak life over all my children but not all walk with the power and confidence of owning the words I’ve given. Your enemy knows that by skewing your identity in me, your mission and purpose can become disabled.
My words are precious jewels, displaying your kingdom status to the one who comes against your heart. I’ve given everything you need to win the battle, so protect and consistently remind yourself of the life-giving words I’ve spoken over you.
Set these precious stones in the armor I’ve provided; this is your most powerful defense because it protects your heart, filling you with the hope and faith needed to carry you through battle as you walk out your calling.”

“You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in you.” Isaiah 26:3
My Precious One,
You live within two realms.
My kingdom is never affected by chaos; even in the midst of it, I inhale the fragrant air of peace.
Hold my hand and I’ll show you how to gracefully navigate above your circumstance.
Think of Peter! When he focused on me, the storm couldn’t affect him; when he focused on his problems, they began to engulf him. Remember—I’m am only a breath (of peace) away; don’t let the chaos of circumstance overwhelm you when the Prince of Peace is right there, extending Himself to ground you.”

“I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. I have given them the glory that you gave me that they may be one as we are one; I in them and you in me. May they be brought to complete unity to let the world know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.”
John 17:20-23
My Precious One,
I am more than your God. I am your Abba and as your all-powerful, loving Father, I have the ability to go wherever you go. When you invited Jesus into your heart, we accepted the invitation; committing to never leave you or forsake you.
As your loving Father, I am here to empower and strengthen you.
In our family, we have many members—your brothers and sisters in the faith. As much as I love you, I love them. As hard as I fought for you, I fought for them.
When the rest of the world is entrenched in darkness and confusion, I empower my children to work in unity and love. This is very different from world around you. This unity entails support, encouragement, healthy admonition, prayer and hearts that are willing to serve each other. The spirt woven through the fabric of my family is love; the same spirit Jesus operated from. This untainted, unselfish, unconditional love is so supernatural, it goes against the nature and laws of this world; proof you’ve been re-born into another Kingdom. The world becomes lighter when you obey me and there is a radiance and glory in that obedience.
It saddens me when my children listen to the lies and temptation of the great divider. Walls of offence, and bitterness are erected when they do. When you feel anger and division rising up inside your heart, address it and give it to me. I’ll walk you through it and show you gentle victory.
I don’t want any to perish or be deceived and when my children defend me in a spirit of judgment and self-righteousness they become blinded by those spirits.
There is freedom in trusting me. When you come to me, I will open your eyes and touch your heart to see things from my perspective—if you ask. This takes self-control. Many of my children refuse to give me a moment when they’ve decided to become the judge. I alone am the Righteous Judge. I see everything from an eternal perspective. Why not turn to me for wisdom as you walk through relational landmines? I am pursuing the lost with my love. How will they know you are not of this world when you allow the god of division to rule in your heart? Let me show you the wisdom of the king of the Universe. I want nothing more than to share everything I have with you.”

“For thus saith the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel; In returning and rest shall ye be saved;
in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength; and ye would not.” Isaiah 30:15
“My Precious One,
In the midst of beauty and chaos, I extend my hand of peace. As you let go of every good and terrible thing, my Spirit fills your lack.
Please know needing my hand is not a sign of weakness, depending on someone all-wise and capable is your strength! I’m not here to remind you of your inadequacy but to assist life-giving support; to help turn the unknown into a wonder-filled adventure!
In the context of a trusting partnership, each brings what they can, unafraid to ask for what’s needed. Honor and collaboration rule.
Independence and rebellion lead you away from blessings while insecurity and distrust destroy the joy of sharing the journey. You weren’t created to be a lone wolf…and that’s a good thing! It means you’re never left to figure out life on your own. Wisdom is your constant companion.”
