The keys of the Kingdom give you power to overcome all evil and wrong. They give you power to obey My will. They give you the strength to do that which I ask you to do‚ even when it seems impossible.

Through the power of the keys, there is no gulf too wide, no depth too deep, no mountain too high for you. Hold on to the keys, for they are the power for this new era.

When you wake up, call on the keys for the day. When you lie down at night to sleep, call on the power of the keys. When you speak, call on My power. When you eat, call on My power. No matter what you do, call on My power!

Do you feel low or down? Are you too tired to face today? Don't worry, My love, I've got the boost you need. Come and get energized through hearing from Me for today.

What blessed peace can be found in the silent moments when you and I commune together, just the two of us. Here is where you find your strength. Don't neglect this private time with Me—it is your strength.

Fear not for the tests which will come your way today. They are molehills and can be easily leapt over with My power. Don't let the Devil turn them into mountains before you. See with the power of the Spirit that there are no obstacles for you because you hold the power of the keys in your hands.

Peace and quiet might be hard to find in such a busy Home, but if you take a moment with Me you'll find that your heart can enter into My secret place where you can be refilled and refreshed by My power. Don't miss it.

Focusing on the power is going to be the solution to all your problems. It doesn't need to take a lot of time; even just stopping for one minute to send up a quick praise, prayer, or plea for help or direction will be a tremendous solution. Try doing this throughout your day today, and see what a difference it'll make.

It doesn't matter how many times you make the same mistake. Keep trying‚ keep fighting, and you will win.

I long to be one with you always. See how many times you can bring Me into your heart and life today. I promise that I will make your day special (in a very good way) as you do.

You're officially in the era of miracles. When you get stuck in a difficult situation, you can smile and know that a miracle may very well be just around the corner.

No worries! I promise to always take care of you and see you over every obstacle. I'm always here for you‚ so when you're tempted to worry, just remind yourself of My love and power that's always going to pull you through.

I need you. I want you to remember that you personally have a special destiny‚ a special role in the Endtime play that only you can fill. Even if you can't see it now, it will become clear to you.

Love is never wasted. Keep on loving, whether or not you see results right now, because one day you will.

Let Me kiss you and hold you now. I long for you‚ and I care for you. You are Mine, and I want to remind you of how special you are to Me.

Don't be afraid of change. Never be afraid to try something new. You just might find that you like it, and that it's the answer you've been looking for.

I have millions of new ideas, new solutions to old problems, simple solutions that'll make your day-to-day life so much easier and more pleasant. Bring Me those little nagging problems and things that bug you, and let Me help you fix them.

You can laugh in the face of any problem now, for you are filled with power—the power of the keys, the power to rise above, and the power that comes with the knowledge that NOTHING is impossible.

When you witness, you always win. Are you feeling tired or "blah" or discouraged? There's nothing like finding a hungry sheep and filling their need. It'll give you the boost you need, not to mention it'll bring many other blessings raining down upon you.

It really makes Me happy when I see you enjoying yourself—eating your favorite food, spending time with your favorite person, or playing your favorite game. Have fun, relax, enjoy the fun things in life.

You'll never regret a loving, unselfish, or sacrificial deed. Look for ways to give, ways to put others first. Promoting unity is a sure way to bring down My blessings and supply.

Faith is not something you feel; it's something you do—an action which gets results. Stretch your faith, exercise it‚ and you will not be disappointed.

As you learn to love more fully, you become more like Me. I cause your spirit to shine, and to radiate love and beauty. This enhances your gifts and brings down My power and Spirit upon you in greater and greater measure.

Need a boost? My Words are always there for you, always full of power, always ready to lift you up, give you answers‚ encourage your heart, give you strength and much‚ much more. Never underestimate the power of My Words.

It's a new day, with new weapons, and a new start for many. So don't dwell on past problems or mistakes, but believe Me for what I've called you for today!

You're My special choice for the ministry I have you in. So you can trust Me and believe that I will give you all that you need for the job.

It's easy to lie back and let the winds of change flow over you and only ruffle your hair‚ but not change your innermost being. But I want all the New Wine and new moves of the Spirit to change you as much as possible, because that will make you more a part of Me and more like Me.

My Word is synonymous with Me, and the New Wine is My new, fresh, exciting Word for you today—Word that will help you meet the challenges of today with vigor and enthusiasm and zest of spirit!

Embrace Me in the morning, and let My Spirit permeate your heart, soul, feelings‚ and thoughts. I want to become more and more a part of you‚ so that you can be a tool in My hand, and so that I can show you My love all day long, in every situation.

Emotional changes‚ hurts, disappointments, trials—these are hard to bear, but remember that I measure each one out with great care‚ concern, and love for you, so that there's never more than you and I can handle together. Give it all to Me, and I will ease the pain and heal your heart.

If you feel the job is too great for you, you're right! It is! But it's not too great for Me, and I will bring My will to pass through you, as you yield your all to Me and follow My bidding closely.

This day that I've given you is a gift, but it's like an empty box now. As you begin your day, moment by moment, it is your choice as to how you will fill it. Let it be filled with beautiful things from Me.

You are a wonderful, amazing creation of Mine, that I ordained to fill a spot that only you can fill. I love to see you move and act and think with My power and anointing, fulfilling your destiny, the role that I created you for.

The Family is becoming a mightier army and a more powerful weapon which I can wield against the Enemy. Thank you for making the right choices. Thank you for choosing to give Me your all. Praise Me for the victories that I will win for you, and the progress that I will make through you.

It's good that you are taking on new and different responsibilities. There will be some challenges, but that's always good for you, and it's a good opportunity for you to learn new things and work with new people. Don't necessarily rely on your old tactics and ways of doing things. I've given a new mode of operation, so be open to My leadings and ask Me everything at each step. Then I can put My blessing on you and your life.

I will perfect that which concerns Me. You are My beloved bride in whom I am well pleased, and I have great need of you. I take you into My arms and love and cherish you, for you have given Me your all. You have given your life and strength in love for Me and those around you. And as you give, so will it be given to you.

My love, I look upon your face and I behold such beauty! Your service to Me all of these years has been seen and will be remembered, and you have great blessings and rewards in store for each and every sacrifice. Yet your love for Me shines even brighter than your works. I feel your love and it is drawing us closer together for all eternity.

I know this past year has had its ups and downs. Maybe you feel like there have been more downs than ups. But I have had My hand in your life, and have been working in your heart to make you what I want you to be—a highly trained individual for My use.

I love you so much and am here for you. Thank you for drawing close to Me in your times of need. It is then that I am able to fill you to the full with My love to pour out on others. Thank you for a job well done. I have great need of you, and this Family is not the same without you! Thank you for sticking it out and saying yes to Me. I love you.

Don't worry if you feel weak and incapable at times. I rejoice in this, for it brings you closer to Me and keeps you humble and desperate. It is only when you are down that you can look up and see My face. That is when you truly know that without Me you are nothing.

Be not weary in well doing, but look to Me and seek Me. Ask Me everything. I will give you the wisdom and the grace and the love that you need. In due season you shall reap if you faint not.

I'm so proud of you! There are many times you've been tested and you've stuck—you've looked to Me and totally yielded yourself to Me. You've persevered and you've held on to My hand by pure faith. Sometimes things seemed rocky and turbulent for you, and you let Me be your grace and help and strength. I'm so happy and thrilled that we've grown so much closer together as friends, as lovers, as companions.

I know you feel overwhelmed. I see that you feel insecure and at a loss. I know the things you are feeling. But are you not desperate to commune with Me and get My direction and instruction? Ah, this is My plan. I will place you exactly where I want you, and in the end, when you look back, you will see My perfect will and My perfect timing in all things, even if from your present vantage point it might look like confusion. I have My hand on your life.

As you step out by faith to be and do all that I have called you to, even when it looks like you are stepping out into thin air, I will cause the ground to rise up to meet you.

Claim all the promises in My Word, for they are for you. I would have given them for you alone—I care about your happiness and well-being and success that much.

As you claim My promises with others, the power generated is multiplied. Such are the dynamics of united prayer when applied to united goals. United prayer followed by united action, according to My will and My Word, is unstoppable.

You're just getting started! As you learn to use all of the weapons I have given‚ you will do greater things for Me than ever before—greater things than you ever imagined possible!

You'll have your ups and downs as long as you're in human flesh; that's just part of life. But when you get down, you don't have to stay there. Latch on to Me and let Me lift you to heavenly places.

Things really aren't as difficult or complicated as they sometimes seem. You've been given new powers for new responsibilities, but the old formula holds true: Trust and obey and you'll receive My anointing and blessing.

You can have as much of Me as you want, whenever you want, as often as you want. I'm always here to listen, to love, to encourage, to counsel, and to empower you to do My will.

Don't ever think you can't do what I'm calling you to do, and whatever you do, don't ever say that! Rather, rejoice in your human limitations, knowing that they make more room for Me to work. When you are weak, I am strong.

Call on the keys! Call on the hosts of Heaven! Call on Me! All power in Heaven and Earth is given unto Me and Mine, and we wait to wield it on your behalf whenever you need it. Just call!

If you could truly know how much I love you and how proud I am of you for giving your life for Me, you'd never be discouraged or disappointed with yourself. I forgive your sins, and there should be no condemnation for My children.

You're special to Me. Remember that when disappointments come, when all seems lost, when you're feeling down or just plain uninspired. Inspiration comes and goes, circumstances change, but My love for you is constant. You'll always be special to Me.

Let Me renew your convictions each day through My Word, and through My voice of personal prophecy. It's the Word that gives you faith, and faith is the foundation of conviction, and the fruit of strong conviction is obedience.

Keep the personal Words I gave to you handy, and mark them and review them. Don't let them drift from your mind and heart, but keep following the road to progress and victory that I have placed you upon. I have given you all the counsel that you need‚ and I will continue to give you what you need as you ask Me. But unless you review it and work on it each day, it won't do you any good. Make the most of this wonderful gift of personal instruction that I've given you by reviewing it and putting it into action!

(Dad:) Are the keys a part of your life? If not, they should be! They're the way of the future. They will unlock the doors that you're meant to walk through. They will make it possible for all the promises the Lord has given you to be fulfilled. Study them. Reread all that has come out about them, and work to become experienced in their use. They're for you! Use them!

What can you do today to promote Activated? Even if you're not going out witnessing today, are you going anywhere? Don't go without the tools I've given you to do the job! If you're staying home, take some time to pray for those who are out‚ or to pray for your sheep and contacts. Prayer and obedience will bring this vision to pass. It's the little things—the little times of obedience, the little prayers—that will make it really happen. Do your part today!

No matter what the obstacle, My power is greater! No matter what the difficulty, I can overcome it. Focus on My power! Ignore the impossibilities. If you're not sure what My will is in a situation, then get down to business and ask Me! And once you know, focus only on My will and My promises. I will see you through!

Stretch your faith! Let it grow as I would have it grow, for in the days to come, the faith you have now will not be enough. You must let Me move the mountains and surmount the obstacles with you today. You must put Me on the spot, and learn how to use the gift of heavenly thought power that I have placed in your hands.

You must practice focusing solely on the power. You must become experienced in the use of the keys turned to swords. Remember how those in the vision wielded them with skill and ease? Well, you can bet that wasn't automatic. They had to practice! Come on, put them to use in your life today! There isn't much time!

The most important thing—today and always—is your relationship with Me. If there's anything standing in the way of our communication, today is the day to sort it out and make it right. If there's anything hindering your receptivity to My Word‚ today is the day to resolve it. If there's anything keeping you from having the time with Me that you need, today is the day to be rid of it. Today is the day! There's no tomorrow when it comes to spending time with Me and receiving the power, instruction‚ blessings, spiritual progress and anointing that come with it.

Love is what makes the world go round. Things are moving fast, the Enemy is fiercely at war against My children, and there is a world to win before you're out of time. But there's always time to love—time to stop and listen, time to pray for someone, time to lend a helping hand. It's those little things that make life worth living, and that keep you in touch with why you're fighting a battle in the first place—it's so that My love can reign on the Earth, and so that as many as possible can experience My love in full measure. So put My love into practice in the little ways today. Keep that as your focus, and everything else will fall into place and you'll have the proper perspective.

Do you want to really make a difference today? Spend time before My throne interceding for others. Intercessory prayer goes further than anything else you could ever accomplish today, because intercessory prayer releases the powers of Heaven. If you have 15 minutes and aren't sure how to spend those minutes‚ spend them in prayer. You'll accomplish more in the spirit in those few minutes than a week's worth of struggle in the arm of the flesh could bring about. You will lighten loads and send relief to those who are struggling.

The Enemy fights prayer hard because he knows how effective it is. Don't save prayer for a time when you want to relax. Consider it part of your work. Really get down to business in the spirit, claim My promises, and command Me. And you'll see and hear about the results. Pray! It changes things!

I love how you love Me. Your faithfulness, your endurance, your perseverance in spite of all the daily obstacles, does not go unnoticed. What you spend to reach the lost I will more than repay.

Jesus, others, you, spells JOY. When you're down and confused, check out whether the Enemy is trying his trick of getting you involved in your problems instead of looking to Me and reaching out to others. Seek Me and I'll help you to receive My joy back in your heart.

Praise Me for everything in your life—the good and bad, the pretty and ugly, the joyous and sad—and you will experience peace and contentment that transcend the boundaries of the earth or flesh.

My yoke is easy and My burden is light—if you come unto Me. Come, My love, let Me bear the weight and carry you through this time of difficulty.

Put Me to the test. Call on the keys, expect miracles, and you will get them.

Without My Word you will perish. You will not be able to function, to do the job I have called you to do. It's vitally important that we have our time together every day. Take time with Me and we'll get a lot done to further My message to this lost and lonely world.

Prayer is important. Prayer is power. Pray and call on the keys and you will see things change.

My grace is yours for the asking. My grace is sufficient. My grace will give you strength. My grace overcomes your weaknesses. Ask for My grace and great progress will be made.

Simplicity is intelligence at its best. It is wise to be simple. Simply believe My Word. Simply trust in My Word. Simply put My Word into action‚ and you will see how simplicity is simply amazing! Little is much if I am in it.

Preach the Gospel and you will live of the Gospel. I will supply all your needs and more. The more you lift Me up, the more you seek first My Kingdom, you can be sure that all these other things you have need of will be added unto you. But remember to keep it in the proper perspective. Don't get caught up in the "things" but remember to "seek first the Kingdom."

The touch of My love recreates and gives new life. It breathes fresh vigor into the tired and weary. You have poured out and given much for Me, My love, and yet you never need fear running empty, for as you pour out, I will pour back in. All it takes to remain full is faithfulness to your times alone with Me, where you retreat to My arms and find Me and My love in all its fullness. Its abundance will never diminish, and it will always be there for you—all you need of it and more.

In this new year you will find a new infilling of My love. As times grow busier and more intense, you need not fear, for My love will likewise grow more intense.

You're My beautiful moon, helping to light up this darkened world. Though your light is not your own, when you bask in Mine, then you glow and cast a gentle and loving light on the shadowed places.

Come soar through the air with Me. Come fly through time and space and leave behind the confines of daily life‚ all its tediousness, monotony, and business. Come and be dazzled by the dizzying heights to which My Spirit reaches. Come with Me for the ride of your life! Any time you need a pick-me-up, I'll have something new in store for you‚ something to bring joy and excitement to your heart and mind.

Where would I be without you? I need you and your love. I need all that you have to give Me. I don't just need you because of what you do, but I need you for who you are and what you are—My special creation, My love, My darling, My beauty, My bride.

There's a special place in My palace for just the two of us—a place no one else will ever find. It's a place I've reserved just for you, a place where all is exactly as you would want it. I look forward to the day when I can carry you across the threshold into this spot I'm reserving and preparing for you, My love.

What do you want more than anything right now? What do you need more than anything right now? Do you believe it's in My power to give it to you? Ask, seek‚ and knock; and the answers, the relief, the joy, the love, and the freedom you seek will be granted you in My Own special way.

All the love you give comes back to you an hundredfold. It doesn't always feel like it, and sometimes it seems that more is taken from you than given to you, but you'll see in the end that everything will settle just right, and you won't regret any giving you've ever done.

This year ahead will be the happiest of your life! Not because you'll have everything the way you'd want or hope, but because you've given your everything to Me and put it all in My hands, and for that I'll reward you with a supreme peace and happiness that can't be obtained any other way.

Today I'm writing a song for you‚ My love. It's no earthly song‚ but is comprised of pure heavenly strains. There are no words, either, for My message will be inscribed in a miraculous way. Though others will hear the notes and the tune, only you will hear My love song's words to you. When you get here, I will play it for you. It is one of the most intimate acts of My love. Part of My heart and love is in this song I've created for you today, and you are the only one, aside from Me, who will be able to decipher its meaning.

When there's so much to do and so little time to do it, give all of your burdens to Me. Take each one and give it specifically to Me. I may not help you to accomplish everything in one day, for there is only so much that is humanly possible. But I will give you perfect peace in knowing that you've done your very best and have accomplished those things which were most important.

As a gift of My love for you today, I give you one of My lovely angels of encouragement, joy, and inspiration. She will be by your side today from the moment you wake up till the moment you close your eyes to sleep at night. If you need some extra joy, think of her. She will be encouraging you through tokens of My love throughout the day. She will whisper words of happiness in your ears.

There's nothing more powerful than claiming the power of the keys. There's nothing more beautiful than your heart surrendered to Me. There's nothing more precious than the moments you spend with Me. There's nothing more special than the faith you possess and your determination to trust Me, come what may.

You give and give and give. Like a flower is squeezed and crushed to bring forth a beautiful fragrance, so are you. Though it hurts at times, My precious darling, and you feel so spent and weary, those whose lives you touch are invigorated by the fragrance of My love in you. Thank you for being a vessel of My love.

This day is My love for you, so keep your eyes open at every turn so that you don't miss any of My small tokens of endearment. Look out your window and see the beautiful creation—that's My love for you. Look at your loved ones and mates and friends—they're My love for you. Look at the nice clothes I've given you, the wonderful supply of all your needs—that's My love for you. Look at everything you see today, everything that is good, beautiful‚ and lovely, and remember that it is all a manifestation of My love for you.

You're in a war, and it's a difficult fight. Things aren't always easy—in fact, hardly ever. But you're on the right side and you're fighting for Me. You're fighting for My children‚ you're fighting for lost souls, and you're fighting to be what I want you to be every moment of every day. Don't ever think for a moment that you're through, that you've had enough of the fight, because you're going to win if you don't give in. You're My brave fighter‚ and I'm proud of your faith that compels you to continue on to victory.

I love to speak to you. I love to whisper words of love in your ears‚ as well as words of counsel and guidance that help the problems around you melt away. I know it takes time and effort and a lot of faith to hear from Me‚ but it's so worth it. Not only do you benefit from My answers and counsel and instruction, but I also benefit through your spending time with Me. It makes Me so happy; it's these times with you that I treasure.

You can only do so much. I know you have high ideals and there's so much to do that you feel responsible for. But don't let the Enemy condemn you or tell you that you're not doing enough or you're failing. There's a limit to what you can physically do each day, so just trust that I will take care of the rest. At the end of the day, commit everything undone to Me; don't hold on to it and let it burden or discourage you. This is My work and I will take care of what you can't.

The greatest physical strength is but a mere fraction of the strength and power you can have in the spirit. The flesh must work and train and push to gain strength and endurance. To gain spiritual strength‚ all you must do is to show up at My chambers, rest in My arms, listen to My whispers, and, hand in Mine, follow where I lead.

Enjoy the little things‚ for they are the essence of life. Appreciate the senses I have given you; use them to their fullest. When you look, see. When you eat, taste. When you hear‚ listen. When you touch, feel. When you smell, let the scent fill your whole body. It is only when you take My blessings for granted that life loses its luster.

Passion is the soul of life. Passion in prayer brings speedy answers. Passion in work yields great success. Passion in love brings fulfillment. Passion in life opens the door to joy. Passion in spirit brings complete satisfaction.

When you lift your arms in praise you lift your spirit up to Me. In that moment of praise I touch your spirit and infuse you with a little of Mine.

The greatest thing that can ever be said of you is that you lived and died for Me.

My dear one, how I love your love for Me! It astounds Me‚ it delights Me, it gives Me such pleasure. Come, let us love all day long, and never leave our bed. Let us love in the spirit even while you're working, even while you're eating, even while you're talking with others. Let us never leave each other's side, and I will be content.

Let this day be one in which you see Me in everything—the good and the so-called bad—because all the good and sweet and pleasant things are My love gifts to you‚ and all the so–called bad things are only things I allow so that I may help you through them, and thus show you more of My love.

Did you know that I fell in love with you the first moment I saw you? I love you and never want to be away from you, not for an instant.

Thank you for being My forever love. I am so thankful for brides like you who keep their oil burning, who are faithful to fight to come spend time with Me, even when it's difficult. You have strength that you know not of, because I am your strength, and I never run out.

Times of separation from loved ones can be some of the hardest times on Earth‚ but they can also be some of the sweetest, because I can draw you together in spirit as never before. You are still one with those who have gone away; you are not together physically‚ but you are together in spirit. And when you are together physically once again, I will cement your hearts with the sweet bond you have always known, only richer and fuller than before because it has undergone sacrifice for My sake.

Let My love be your all in all. I love you and will give you everything you need, every need and even your desires, because you delight yourself in Me and want only what is best for My work and My Kingdom.

In the moments when your heart is lonely, remember that I am right here to fill your need. I will give you kisses from Heaven, straight from My throne. I will cuddle you in My throne, because it is very big—big enough for you too. And I will even send you earthly loves to love you for Me. That's how great My love is for you.

Do you know that I see every tear, I feel every heartache, I understand every trial? I understand it all, and I have the antidote, too. So please don't hesitate to tell Me whenever you feel a bit down‚ okay? I will send whatever will fill the void‚ and relieve that little trial or ache or unpleasant feeling—for it is My desire that you are happy each and every day.

These days away from your loved ones are a time of testing for you, and I understand, because I was away from My Father. Sometimes the time seemed so long, and when it did, I withdrew and went to talk with Him. He eased My heart with the assurance that I was doing it for a good cause—for you! And now, you are enduring this separation for the blessing that it will be for My work. Although it's not easy, I will bless you for your sacrifice, My dear one. I see, I know, and I will repay.

My darling, you are never lost to My love. You are never without Me. You are never too bad, or too ugly, or too this or that. You can never be too anything for Me, because I find you wonderful, marvelous, and I delight in having you not just as My girlfriend, but as My wife. Ah, such a wonderful wife you are to Me! Thank you for your love for Me. I love you too.

This is a special day‚ because you are here with Me. I will not fail to show you My love each and every time you turn to Me today. I will not fail to fill your love cup to overflowing, to send you all that you need, to keep you close to Me and drinking in My Words and loving Me and receiving My seeds, and sucking for more, so you can get every last drop of My love. Do you wonder how you will be able to do that all day long? Just try it and see! Ha! It will be fun!

This wonderful day is made to show you how much I love you. I made the sunrise, the blossoms that come out even in inclement weather‚ the beautiful flight of the bird as it arcs in the sky, the twinkly smile of your little one. I made all these so that you would know just how much I love you. I will do anything to make you sure of My love.

You are so special to Me. I love the way your eyes are so sincere, the way your smile sparkles, the way your hair shines, the way your feet and hands are so graceful. You are wonderfully beautiful, and I did a great job making you, if I may say so Myself! Thank you for returning My love—it means so much to Me.

On this day, I wish you to know that I won't send you anything that you and I can't take care of together. In fact, I never will! All through your life, I'll only send you those things which will be a victory for you as you turn to Me and let Me walk through them with you, fight for you, and give you peace and happiness inside.

This is a special day, because it gives Me one more opportunity to tell you that I love you, to show you that I love you, to keep you close to My heart and to fill you with wonderful Words and kisses every time you turn to Me. I look forward to showing you My love today!

When you look at the days apart from your mate, it is easy to see the lack, but I see it as a wonderful time that will bring forth much fruit for Me. I see it as a time of such sweet closeness and communion and lovemaking that we have together. And I pray to My Father that we will continue to love each other as fervently and deeply when your mate returns as we have in these days while he was away. For I love you so much, and I am so thankful for these days of increased fellowship with you.

Thank you for having the determination and courage to fight the Enemy. Thank you for not heeding his lies, for not letting him ruin your day, for not listening when he tells you awful things. I only have love and peace and happiness for you, My very, very dear one. So if you are wondering about anything, just ask Me, and I'll explain it to you and give you My peace and assurance in your heart.

It's wonderful how you exhibit faith in Me, My dear. It makes it possible for Me to open up mysteries to you, to expand your mind to receive things from the limitless realm of the spirit, and strengthen your heart and soul with secrets from My throne. I love to pour out secrets to you, so don't forget to ask Me questions whenever you wonder about anything, and I will be right there to answer you.

This day is a marvelous one, and I'm looking forward to all that we will do together. I love to walk through the day with you, staying just over your shoulder, whispering in your ear, giving you assurances of My love and sharing secrets from My heart. Oh, I love to direct your work, keep you on track, and give you guidance and counsel. But My favorite is the love words we tell each other. I enjoy that and can't get enough of the love we share.

Don't stop loving Me and praising Me, My dear one‚ even if you're busy‚ even if you have trials, even if things pile up around you. As you love Me, and praise Me, and let Me know about your burdens, they will melt away. I will take them away. I will make everything easier, because you are My loved one, and I have given you the garment of praise that will make your life flow smoothly, and also keep you close to Me.

In all that you do for Me today‚ remember that I appreciate each and every act, all the jobs‚ every little iota of work done for Me. I know many times you may not think of it as work for Me, if you're taking care of your children, cleaning up, preparing food, or doing something mechanical. But I look at each task as a song of praise to Me‚ because you've offered it as a sacrifice to Me. I appreciate it‚ and see it as such, and I thank you.

Thank you for serving Me—I couldn't do without you. You are so precious to Me that if you turn away for one instant in your heart, I am so sad. I love to have your love, your service, and most of all‚ I love to have your heart.

This is a day in which I will look for new ways to show you My love, so that you will never, ever doubt it. I don't ever wish for you to doubt that you are extremely special to Me, and that if you were the only one on Earth, I would have suffered and agonized and died just for you—you are just that special and wonderful to Me.

Today‚ let's have fun, shall we? Shall we enjoy each other? Shall we enjoy all that I've done in your life? Shall we enjoy the blessing of loving one another? I love your praises and I love to praise you in return, so let's start the day by loving each other in words, and I'll continue through the day loving you back in any way I can.

It's wonderful to see your joy and your praise of Me. I can't live without it, and it means so much to Me. I can never get enough. Thank you for loving Me—you will never regret it, because I will give you back many more blessings than you can even contain, I promise.

On this day, there will be special surprises for you—in My Word, in the smile of another, in the specific job you do for Me. Look for these surprises, because they will show you My love. I have hidden these surprises all throughout your day for you to find, so you will remember all day long how very much I love you.

This is a wonderful day, because we have 24 hours before us to enjoy each other. I love you and think you're wonderful. Did I ever tell you that? I think you're just absolutely, smashingly beautiful‚ and it never ceases to amaze Me that you love Me as you do. In return, I will give you everything you need, because I know you will use it to give right back to Me.

It's wonderful that you let Me work through you. You let Me love you and enjoy you and inspire you and give you all you need for your work, your play, your time with your children, your friendships, your daily schedule. I love to fill you and lead you and help you. Thank you for letting Me do all of this for you because I love you so much.

In Me you find your perfect calling, your reason for being, your all in all. I do allow earthly love and physical benefits for your enjoyment, and I send them as blessings for your love and devotion to Me. But I am glad that you are seeing how in the last analysis, I am what you live for‚ and I bring you the ultimate in happiness, the heights of joy, the outer limits of ecstasy. You are Mine, and because of that, I will not cease to load My benefits upon you‚ so that you will draw closer and closer to Me.

It's easy for you to look at others and think that they have an easier time than you do, but really, others have hard times that you don't know about. And in these hard times‚ I am just as much there for them as I am for you. But when we come through the hard times together, we are so much closer‚ and that benefit turns even the hard times into happy times. Isn't that right? We love each other more than ever, and I am more yours than ever before.

It's a wonderful thing for Me to know and love you, My love. I think of the many ways you please Me, and My heart sings with joy and contentment. In all that you say and do for Me‚ know that I am pleased with your sacrifice and devotion to Me.

Thank you for your love. Thank you for your faith. Thank you for your service. Thank you for your devotion. Thank you for your sacrifice. Thank you for your perseverance. Thank you, above all, for loving Me. I love you and I see every iota of your being that you have given to Me.

It's a wonderful thing to be loved by you, because that means I can love you back! I can shower you with blessings all day long, and that's what I intend to do. Thank you for staying close to Me‚ so I can bless you in return.

Expect miracles today! I know that there are some situations that appear very difficult and burdensome, but remember that all things are possible through the power of the keys! Remember to call on the keys for help, and they will unlock doors you know not of! Use their power!

I want you to take some special time with Me today. It doesn't have to be a big, extra chunk of time. Take advantage of those little moments when you are in between things, or doing something that doesn't take a lot of thinking‚ to talk to Me and commune with Me, and we can have little "quickies" throughout the day.

I love you with an everlasting love that will never fade away! You are My precious, luscious, sexy, desirable bride! Revel in My love today, bathe yourself in it, and let it completely overwhelm and envelop you.

Remember to cast all your cares and burdens on Me. You can even make it a mental picture—every time you feel the cares and burdens of this life‚ picture yourself taking that backpack of burdens and throwing it off your shoulders and then walking away from it. Don't even look back, wondering if I'm going to take care of your burdens. I will. I promise to take all your burdens upon Myself, as My Word says. Will you do that for Me today?

You have My sunshine! Even though sometimes the day appears cloudy and gray, you have My sunshine in your heart every day, 24 hours, day and night. Don't ever forget that, okay? No matter how dark and cloudy it looks on the outside, remember the sunshine from Me that I can shed abroad in your heart.

I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you! Seven times seven and seven more, and seventy times seven, and seven million, billion, trillion, gazillion times seven more, I love you! My love for you is never–ending, everlasting‚ and beyond infinity! I love you!

Remember to "seize the moment." Don't get so caught up in your work and service for Me that you neglect to notice and appreciate the little things—My creation, a compliment‚ a meal lovingly prepared, a comfortable bed, the starry night, etc. Take time to stop and enjoy and even revel in these little things I bring along your way each and every day.

Don't be discouraged. I know you're anxious and eager to learn, do‚ see, be, and accomplish much for Me, but you get frustrated sometimes by your lacks and "human-ness." Just remember to lighten up, let go, and let Me‚ and together we're going to make progress and win battles.

You are a vessel of My love. You are My hands, My arms, My mouth. Find someone today who needs encouragement and put those lovely arms around them, stroke them with your beautiful hands, and give them a loving kiss with those sweet lips of yours. I want to use you today to be an encouragement to someone who desperately needs to know that they're loved and appreciated. Keep in tune with Me and I will show you who that is. Thank you for being a willing vessel of My love.

We have lots to accomplish together today. I know you have a lot to do, but remember, it's not by your might or your power, but by My Spirit and strength that things will be accomplished. Just be a holy hole today, a blank sheet of paper. Hear My whispers, ask Me everything, and call on the power of the keys‚ and you'll be amazed at all we will be able to do today. I'm excited about it! Are you?

Tell Me what you want and see if I will not deliver.

The year is before you‚ and there are great things in store. Your wish is My command in our teamworking relationship. Your portfolio is to do the asking; My portfolio is to do the supplying.

All your days will be blessed by Me. All of them are measured, and everything that comes your way must have My permission before it happens.

My darling, what a special love you are to Me. I rejoice in the victories you've won and the spiritual advances you've made. You've reached out and have taken hold of the new powers and spiritual gifts I've offered you, and you're glowing and shining with radiance because of it. Your powers against the Enemy have increased manifold.

Take heart, knowing that this year will be a good one for you. It will be a happy one. You will find peace and a cozy nest in which to make your home. You will be fulfilled and content, and you will see the fruits of your many labors bringing forth that which you have desired—victory and beauty.

Can you see the pretty picture I'm drawing for you? I'm drawing it in the sky for you—the sunset in all its magnificence and glory. This will be a special token of My love to you this year‚ and you will enjoy much, much beauty.

Don't worry about what's to come. I have a special niche already created for you, in the hollow of My hand. No harm will come to you, and I will not ask more of you than you are able to bear. I will make a way of escape and I will provide your every need.

I have called you to the Kingdom for such a time as this. Your heart of love will be needed to help mend and to heal the hurts of those around you. You will be an encourager, a lifter up, a binder of wounds, a bringer of joy. You will have a ministry of giving happiness and shining My light and love on others.

This will be a good year for you. Reach out and take hold of the things that I'm giving you. There are presents and surprises of all sizes and varieties. I'm not going to withhold one good thing from you, because I love you.

I have given you love, life, and happiness. You've given your all to Me. Believe Me, you will see the sacrifices that you've made transform into rewards this year in great abundance, and in just the ways you appreciate.

I will be your strength and your comfort. When you feel tired and as if you can't take another step, allow Me to sweep you off your feet and give you peace and rest. Allow Me to nurse you back to full strength, and put My seeds within you.

Never say you can't. I have given you the gift of rising to meet any challenge. You will not come upon a river that is too high or raging for you to cross; a mountain too steep and rugged to climb; an obstacle too threatening to overcome. You will conquer all, with My arms underneath you.

I love you so much! Let Me shower you with treasures on your birthday. Lie in My arms and let Me massage your body, and give you thoughts of pleasure and love. Let Me envelop you in the warm security of My arms. Let Me take you for a spirit trip. Let Me love you through your mates. Let Me encourage you through your co–workers.

It's never too late to step out and try something new. Don't let this year hold you back in any way. Look at it as a clean slate, a new start, a fresh try.

As you face today, think on all the positive that is to come. Don't dwell on the things that you dread—for they will be positive too, as they work to make your spirit stronger. Think of the joy that you give Me each time you choose to please Me.

I'll make you happier than you can imagine, for all things that seem hard to you right now will pass away, and the things that you've learned will lift you to wonderful heights. There won't be tears of difficulty and pain in the day when you are given your rewards.

I know just what you need, and I know how to make full compensation for any loss or hard things now. Keep fighting. The crown will be given to you for winning the race and making it to the goal line, even though it was hard a lot of the time.

You can praise Me no matter what you're doing. Try it: Thank Me for My power, for the things I've done, for the things that are recorded in the Word—while you go about your day. If you're walking, you can tell Me something you love about Me; while you eat you can think thoughts of thankfulness for My care of you—how you're surrounded in love. As your praises flow‚ you will feel My arms around you.

I love you more than you could even imagine or realize. I have special things planned for us to be able to do together—you and I, in Heaven—that will really make you happy. Every day you keep letting Me give you the grace to fight on‚ and every day I set aside more treasures and new joys for you to experience when you get here. You'll be so glad that you held on through it all when you see My face.

Don't look at the rough road‚ but up at the bright rainbow; not at the mud, but at the smiles in others' eyes; not at the rocks in the way, but at the flowers; not at the sores and calluses, but at the strength you've gained; not at the pain, but at the joy you will know forever. There's nothing you've gone through that I don't have the perfect reward planned in return that will make it so very worth it.
