It Is Time

The Lord longs to be gracious to you;  he rises to show you compassion.  For the Lord is a God of justice.  Blessed are all who wait for him.
It is time for everything I have prepared and planned for you to open up right before your very eyes and life.  So close, so close, you can sense it, feel it, touch it, taste it, smell it, hear it – it is breathing down your neck and at your back door.  It calls, loudly – and louder and louder still.  It starts to hearken, it starts to announce itself and make it known.  To prepare itself and you.  My Word is living and active.  It is alive and real.  I am alive and at work in your life.  How I love to cup your face in my hands.  I love you still, on and on and on – yesterday, today and forever.  Always.  From today and for the future, in eternity. 
Close to my heart, my home, my people, my heavens and near to my throne.  The Mercy Seat.  How I have waited for these moments to bestow certain blessings upon you.  Oh you will see that I am God and I am a Good God and that I will do all these things.  My promises are True, Yes and Amen, and Forever.  I haven’t forgotten you, neither do I seek to disappoint you or leave you bereft.  I do not confuse you or reject you.  No longer I tell you will you be frustrated by paths that were not for you – for now – I am doing a new thing which springs up from places unexpected and I will water and grow what I cause to spring forth.  You are mine.  You are in my hands.  You are whole, healed and beautiful in the deep roots of your heart.  I hold your palm and lead you forward.  Your future is in my hands and yet I share it with you – I can make all things plain before you when timing is right.  Future is now.  I will relocate you.  It will be by my own workings and involvement and not that of man.  Man takes the credit but a life and heart submitted to me is guided by my strength.  A road marked with travel.  A road of goodness and mercy.  Hand of the clock on 3.  3 months will be a marker on the calendar of Promotion and Destiny.  My blessing goes before you, for I am stirring up a new thing in you. 
A new season, even a new ability for the moment.  And Love will pour from you onto many.  I will allow you to Captivate.  You are seated with me.  Therefore, reign with me.  Right now on the far side of the sea I am at work like a mechanic – fixing, working, ticking, altering and aligning.  You will not falter.  You will not experience what you have in the past.  Fear Me. 
Fear the Lord and not false expectations, false ideas and realities.  In the fear of the Lord you will walk in peace, security and righteousness.  You will know success.  I am willing you to go, wanting you to emerge – to grow, receive and give, expand into new territory and a phase that will first uproot and then implant.  I am not a small God by any means or standard.  You will shine.  You will be appreciated.  You will love.  You will know joy to which there are no bounds.  You will exalt me with your life.  You will drive, even.
