Hello Brothers, sisters, and Heartdwellers family.
I woke up feeling a bit overwhelmed, struggling, wondering how to juggle all that I had to do, and haven’t done. Things were piling up and I found myself always scrambling in my thoughts as to what is priority to do when my little one goes to sleep. It seems there is not enough time. I get myself so wound up that I end up not doing anything because I try to figure out which task can get accomplished in the shortest amount of time before she wakes up. And I am back at square one because then, she always wakes up.
So, I decided to pull rhema cards first before the Lord’s Supper because I really needed to hear from the Lord, and I had just put her to sleep. The first card I got was about how much I was loved. The second card said,
“the good Lord is wounding my self-love”
I had just gotten a reading from Jesus CEO, about saying Yes to everything that is asked of you and being given a 24-hour challenge to say Yes. Oh great, I thought, Lord now I have to say Yes to interruptions.
Then the third said,
“Be vigilant. Having the privilege of being a servant in the House of the Lord can make one lax but your fortress is not always safe. Satan lies in wait for an opportune time,”
I thought, Oh boy. I was still debating what to do with my time. I intended to receive the Lord and try to get to work because it had been days since I was able to get to the messages. But I thought, “I think I need to rather pray and do the Lord’s Supper fully instead.
Upon receiving the Lord I came before him, Jesus what’s on your heart?
Jesus began,
“Delegate, My beloved delegate, and believe in the instructions I have already given you. You are overwhelmed because you do not want to sacrifice your sleep”. (He said smiling)
Oh, an aside, guys, it’s so true. Jesus gave me a Rhema card about a week ago, which I got from Mother Clare’s box, and it said to wake up at 7:00 am, that there was no time to argue plus it would be too hot to sleep so late.
When I recited that card I laughed because again I was struggling with a schedule to be there for my little one and also to juggle ministry and get things done. It seems I haven’t mastered it at all, and the Lord wanted me to work. I tried the following day, and I woke up— but then fell asleep in worship. After that, I have just been so exhausted, very low in energy, and unable to stay up or wake up at that time. After feeding my little one I sleep when she sleeps in the morning or my mom comes to get her. You would think I would stay up to pray and do everything. Although those were my intentions—my pillow calls me, and I always just use that time to get rest instead. However, a week later I see that I am drowning still trying to figure out what to do. And Jesus touched on that because he had already given me instructions, but the truth is I did value my rest more than sacrifice to be with Him. And I doubted those messages were from him as well. Lord forgive me..
Also, he has asked me to find a nursing home to do an outreach there which has been exciting. But I have found it hard to find the time to make the phone calls. The times I have tried I haven’t gotten anyone, and by the time I have more time in the afternoon, the activity directors are gone.
He has also given a task about printing out the prayer book for pregnant ladies and The Truth About Mary book to get them out to you guys. But I just haven’t had the time on top of the messages that are backed up. Oh boy
Jesus continued,
“If you would get up at the hour I asked, you would be more equipped for the day and able to get more done, Beloved.”
And yes, Lord, I was thinking, “But I’m so tired at that time”. Maybe a shower would help wake me or even do my workout then. I felt you I heard you say washing my face will do.
“Yes, washing your face will do, Beloved. To help keep your physical concentration to be alert for prayer, your responsibilities as a mother if the little one wakes, and if not, then going right into ministry work. What you do not finish can be done in the afternoon or late evening when you have time. That is when you work best. You have your little one now and your time is not your own. So, either way, you’re going to have to make sacrifices during each day in order to accomplish what needs to be done. So, you choose which sacrifice and offer it to Me with the right spirit, not in complaint, or dragging your feet to do it, Beloved, but with gladness and joy.”
I’m dreading it already, Lord, forgive me, because I just feel low energy now many times.
“Be steady at this and I will strengthen you. Be faithful also to exercise. That helps a lot, actually, with your energy, whether is a walk or a set you desire to do that is all okay by Me, Beloved. Take care of what you can physically with the temple I have given you and I will do the rest
“But you must be vigilant, you and all My brides. That is what’s on My heart, Beloved. I need My brides more vigilant, especially you in this hour. Vigilant in prayer, vigilant in obedience to the projects I have tasked you to do, and vigilant with the intentions, motives, and thoughts of your hearts. Your adversary, satan, is always lying in wait looking for a doorway to enter through to defile, corrupt, paralyze, and darken all of you in any way. “
I wanted to look up the definition.
Vigilant to be alertly watchful especially to avoid danger
Jesus responded
“Yes, Beloved, satan prowls around like a lion seeking whom he may devour (1 Peter 5:8). There are many traps and dangers set up for My brides daily. Some are very subtle and others not so much. Just as I told My disciples on the night of Gethsemane to wake up, be vigilant, and pray that they do not enter into temptation for the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak (Matthew 26:41).
“How can one overcome their flesh? First is by prayer. The more time spent in prayer strengthens and equips you for the falls, traps, and landmines ahead of you. You see, in My presence, you receive much grace and are My love. It’s My love that gives you the grace to walk confidently in all I have asked you to do. It’s My love that gives you confidence to have faith in Me in every area.
“When you walk in this faith you circumvent the enemy’s plans because no matter what he throws at you, you will not be easily moved, quick to respond in your flesh, not easily offended, or prone to resort to fear or unbelief. However, the less time spend with Me, your flesh rules and reigns. You are easily distracted and moved by your emotions: how you feel and make decisions based on that. You are more prone to respond in defensiveness, easily frustrated, and irritable which breaches charity and brother love, quickly allowing satan an entrance into your soul.
“Your mind is clouded with guilt and condemnation continually because you become no longer confident of My love for you because of your failures and shortcomings and causes you to be inward, focusing on yourself, which makes you full of self-seeking and making decisions out of self-love instead of being selfless. Before you know it, you are trapped in his web.
“Rather than free, flying high and seated with Me in heavenly places, which is always your position. But because of your fall, your vantage point has changed.
“This is Satan’s tactic every time My beloved brides, so you must be vigilant. There is much warfare going on in this hour as nations and people hang in the balance. I need you sober-minded vigilant, and discerning moment from moment, My dear ones, because a slip-up can take you back for days— affecting you to minister or do ministry of any kind. And there are souls desperately I needed you to touch in those days.
“So please, My little one and all My brides, stay focused, steady with Me, and prayerful.
“It would do you good to complete a message fully, once you get it, right away Beloved, no longer put it off. You do not have the luxury to be so lax as you once were because of your new responsibilities, or the messages pile up and you can lose some of the anointing on them because I help you adjust while you edit when the messages are fresh on your mind that day. So be faithful and vigilant My beloved little one and all My brides with that you can rest assured your fortress is sealed up with no open entrance for your adversary to enter.”
That was the end of Jesus’ message
Please, family, continue to pray for me for grace to really cooperate with the Lord in this new season. God bless you until the next message.
