Lord, I feel so scattered, and yet You have put on me demands You want me to follow through when I would rather just rest, if I could be honest. Forgive me. I see where my love has grown cold.
Please help me to get back into the saddle and grab onto you and not let go. Jesus, what's on your heart?
Jesus began,
“My beloved, I speak to you now. I have given you all the graces necessary to navigate through this season and to accomplish My holy will each day. I just need your cooperation. Then again, much of the malaise you feel is not just internal, but external, as the enemy of your soul has taken full advantage of your condition to damper you, bring confusion and doubt, and even a coldness concerning ministry and all things—My holy will. That is why I gave you the Rhema, to bind the spirit of apathy. Apathy means to lack feeling desire, for you especially in relation to My will and any work at hand.”
And I looked at the definition. It had many synonyms like detachment, unconcern, indifference, coldness, lack of interest, enthusiasm. And the truth is, I've been feeling all of those things strongly, if I could be honest.
As an Aside family, it's true. For the past week, I've just been pulling Rhemas, and they seem to not connect with me. I've been yearning to hear the Lord's voice, but at the same time, there are instructions he's given me that I haven't done yet. That I just feel blahh... A lot of doubt, uncertainty, unsure, and no desire, if I can be honest. I guess you call it a malaise. Just as Jesus mentioned, and Mother Clare has mentioned before.
I've received many Rhemas about opposition and warfare concerning people speaking against me, etc. But I didn't know where the attack was coming from. And I didn't register. Now I realize maybe it was spiritual enemies speaking. And now I see that it was an assignment to make me feel this way.
Jesus continued,
“Yes, beloved, this assignment is not just for you, but it's an attack released on all My brides to make you lose your fire, enthusiasm, and interest for all I have in store for you. They're moments of great consolation I give My beloved ones, where you feel much in what you're doing for Me, meaning you are led very much by your emotions. I like to feel a joy, a sense of worth, purpose, excitement, elation, and strength, even in My demands, I give you. But when I'm maturing and purifying My brides, all that consolation is removed.
“You feel dry, many times lacking faith and hopeless. Do not be discouraged when you have doubts of these moments. It's a gift from the Father to you. I was in the state for the majority of My ministry, My beloved ones, so I understand you very much. I didn't move by emotions or how I felt, but I was compelled by love. Love never gives up. Love is not a feeling but an action.
“It's a choice every day one can choose to live for Me or live for themselves, despite how they feel, despite their circumstance or situation surrounding them. That is maturity and growth in the kingdom, and that is what I'm doing to you and many of My brides. Some have felt confused and a lack of clarity or direction, therefore you have lost interest in My directives, I've given you, and Satan wants you to lose your way. But I won't allow it, My beloved doves. Continue to press on and persevere. What you simply must do is bind a spirit of apathy and call forth watchfulness, diligence, and perseverance, and it will be given to you.
“Not the feeling or emotions, but something deep in your will that will compel you to move forward out of love for Me. Follow what you know to do, and do not give up on your prayers, on your Lord's Suppers, and definitely do not give up on your ministries, My beloved brides. Each of you has a ministry, a way in which I use you to minister to others by My spirit and My love, even when you don't feel it. That is when I'm moving most through you because we are one, My beloved brides. It must be said again, and do not forget it. We are one. I am in you as you are in Me.
“The more you believe that the greater your impact with others will be. I'm never too far off, nor have I forsaken any one of you. All you do not feel Me does not mean My spirit is not moving in and through you. So, get up, My beloved ones, we have work to do. Shake off your complacency, begin and pray, and in time, when necessary, I will restore those consolations you desire. But for now, I need your cooperation, amidst this dryness and lack of feeling, and do it anyway. I love you, My dear ones. I am with you in this.”
