Slow yourself down more and more each day. If you do, you will actually increase your productivity. You will spend less time cleaning up the effects of dark choices. 1 Chronicles 16:11 Seek the Lord and his strength; seek his presence continually!

There are more ways to increase the power of your will. Every time you choose Me and My ways, you release great power. When you add blindness to that choice, the power increases. If you want to further open the door to a great river of power from My Kingdom to the Earth, then add complete, blind choice of submission to My Will, no matter how humbling or costly or painful it is. Hebrews 11:30-31 30 By faith the walls of Jericho fell down after they had been encircled for seven days [by Joshua and the sons of Israel]. 31 By faith Rahab the prostitute was not destroyed along with those who were disobedient, because she had welcomed the spies [sent by the sons of Israel] in peace. 2 Corinthians 10:4 For the weapons of our warfare are not physical [weapons of flesh and blood], but they are mighty before God for the overthrow and destruction of strongholds,5 [Inasmuch as we] refute arguments and theories and reasonings and every proud and lofty thing that sets itself up against the [true] knowledge of God; and we lead every thought and purpose away captive into the obedience of Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One).

ASK FOR WEAKNESS SO . . . HE CAN BE YOUR STRENGTH When you get to the point of being so broken that you cry out, “I can do nothing!,” then you can do all things in/with Us. As long as you can do anything on your own, you won’t do anything through Us. We do not share Our glory. We are not impressed with your strength, but with your weakness and utter dependence. Complete resignation and admission to the truth of your condition is necessary. Ask Us to weaken your natural strength and reveal weeds. Then you will be strong with Us and Our Presence. Our ways are not man’s ways. Only those who admit they are blind and need guidance can be led. Humble yourself and We will lift you up and do all things in and through you. Pride leads you to be only a stubborn, misled, blind soul. Beware of pride. We Love you! Neither give in to a spirit of fear. When you see your weakness and look at the days ahead, do not be afraid. Lean on Us as you accept your weakness. Be fully aware of your weakness, but be fully aware of Our Love, strength, and soundness of mind. Be as an infant in Our Arms and rest. A baby in his mother’s arms rests, even though the bill collector is coming and there is a storm warning outside. Accept your weakness and Our peace to the point that you actually enjoy your weakness. Then your soul will be quieted like a newborn baby. Resting in Our Arms is actively following Us. Resting in Us is following. Our ways are not your ways. Enjoy your weakness and rest with Us. Matthew 6:31-33 So don’t be anxious, asking, ‘What will we eat?,’ ‘What will we drink?’ or ‘How will we be clothed?’ For it is the pagans (unbelievers) who set their hearts on all these things. Your heavenly Father knows you need them all. But seek first his Kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 1 Corinthians 12:9-10 But the Lord said, “My grace is all you need. Only when you are weak can everything be done completely by my power.” So I will gladly boast about my weaknesses. Then Christ’s power can stay in me. Yes, I am glad to have weaknesses if they are for Christ. I am glad to be insulted and have hard times. I am glad when I am persecuted and have problems, because it is when I am weak that I am really strong. Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust God with all your heart; don’t try to figure out everything on your own. Listen for God’s voice in everything you do, everywhere you go; he’s the one who will keep you on track. Don’t assume that you know it all. Run to God! Run from evil! Proverbs 28:2 A man is a fool to trust himself! But those who use God’s wisdom are safe.

Times of weakness are when praise is necessary. Praise Me and strength will return. I promise. You will see. Keep praising. The more you praise, the more strength will flow. Release strength through praise. Praise Me. I Love you. Nehemiah 8:10 Nehemiah said, “Go and enjoy choice food and sweet drinks, and send some to those who have nothing prepared. This day is holy to our Lord. Do not grieve, for the joy of the LORD is your strength.”

Praise Me. Even when it feels illogical and out of place, praise Me. Then watch what happens. Keep praising. Begin in your thoughts. Then praise with your voice as you gain a little strength. It always works. I promise. 1 Thessalonians 5:18 Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 8-21
The Illogic of Praise Read More »
To praise Me in the middle of terrible circumstances like bankruptcy, death of loved ones, depression, anxiety, adultery, violence, war, and destruction is to praise Me through the pure fire of trust. This kind of praise is one of the most powerful forms of faith. No force in hell can resist this power. There is no door hell can close that this force will not open. Genesis 50:20 You intended to harm me, but God intended it all for good. Psalm 71:14-15 As for me, I will always have hope. I will praise you more and more. My mouth will tell of your righteousness, of your salvation all day long, though I know not its measure. Nehemiah 8:10 Nehemiah said, “Go and enjoy choice food and sweet drinks, and send some to those who have nothing prepared. This day is holy to our Lord. Do not grieve, for the joy of the LORD is your strength.” Psalm 42:11 Why, my soul, are you downcast? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise Him, my Savior and my God Timothy 2:8-9 remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, the offspring of David, as preached in my gospel, for which I am suffering, bound with chains as a criminal. But the word of God is not bound! Psalm 116:2 Because he bends down to listen, I will pray as long as I have breath! Psalm 103:13-14 As a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear Him. 14 For He knows our frame; He is mindful that we are dust.
You do not have to walk through life on Earth being lied to and deceived. Just ask Me to show you the Truth. I will reveal as much Truth as you really want to know. I Am happy to show you the Truth. Are you happy to learn what is True? Do you really want to know? Or do you prefer the lies? James 1:5 Now if any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives to all generously and without criticizing, and it will be given to him.
I do not want you to continue to be blind to what is in your own heart. Trials and difficulties will put what is in your heart on display . . . whether it is Light or darkness. The fire of suffering will flush out all that is hidden within you. Luke 8:17 For nothing is concealed that won’t be revealed, and nothing hidden that won’t be made known and come to light. James 1:2-8 2 Consider it pure joy, my brothers, when you encounter trials of many kinds, 3 because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. 4 Allow perseverance to finish its work, so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. 5 Now if any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him. 6 But he must ask in faith, without doubting, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. 7 That man should not expect to receive anything from the Lord. 8 He is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways. 12 Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love Him. James 3:9-12 10 Out of the same mouth come blessing and cursing. My brothers, this should not be! 11 Can both fresh water and salt water flow from the same spring? 12 My brothers, can a fig tree grow olives, or a grapevine bear figs? Neither can a salt spring produce fresh water.
You are envious of babies, nature, and animals. Why? They have what I placed within you before the beginning, but you lost. You love clean sheets, clean hotels, new things, clean water, clear, clean air, cloudless cool days, new season, clean sheet of paper, clean smells, clean hands . . . why? You miss what you lost. You lost the cleanness of My Being from which you were made. Your desire for cleanness and newness around you is the stamp of origin I placed within you. I Am the Origin of all Life. Come to Me for new Life. Revelation 21:5 And he who was seated on the throne said, “Behold, I am making all things new.” Also he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true. 2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away. Behold, the new has come! Isaiah 1:18 “Come now, and let us reason together,” Says the Lord. Though your sins are like scarlet, They shall be as white as snow; Though they are red like crimson, They shall be like wool. Ezekiel 36:26 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will remove your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh.
You see the animals and yearn to protect them. You want to keep them from the suffering you feel. You also want the freedom from darkness which you lost. Recognize My stamp of origin I placed within you. It will help you to understand the longings of your spirit. If you love and focus on the animals, then you are identifying with their innocence and freedom that I made you to have. Psalm 19:1 The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork. Romans 1:19 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood from His workmanship, so that men are without excuse.… Psalm 139:16 Your eyes saw my unformed body; all my days were written in Your book and ordained for me before one of them came to be. Isaiah 1:18 Come now, let us reason together, says the Lord: though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall become like wool.
