JOY
Message of the Lord to the community for lent, 3/14/19
I am making all things new.
Do you think that My death and resurrection were useless and powerless?
No, My little one, I am making all things new, yet few believe, they have not come to know Me, My Father, and the power of the Holy Spirit. They live in the deception of Satan’s lies and darkness. Their gods have become, money, wealth, power, self, but the truth is that I am alive in the world, present with all My power and glory, and at the designated time, chosen by our Father, I, united to My faithful remnant of victim souls, will seize the dragon.
Many will be lost because their pride kept them from believing in Me, the God of heaven and earth. Persevere in the mission I have entrusted to you. (I stopped to ask Jesus how He wants me to persevere… So many times I do not know what to do or say….)
Tell My family (LC) to pray for greater faith to believe in the words I have spoken (I understood His messages to us). If My words remain in your hearts, you will persevere through the many trials predestined for you to suffer for the glory of God and the salvation of countless souls.
I desire to see each of you rejoicing ALWAYS, in good times and in bad, because you have come to believe that I am with you. You have come to taste the goodness of the Lord.
Joy is the fruit of trust, and therefore, My followers live in the praise of God. My witnesses will be known in the world through the light of praise and joy that radiates from your lives.
My little ones, believe that in the midst of this darkness, I am making all things new through you, with you, and in you.
Proclaim what I have done in you (plural) through The Simple Path I have been leading you in. Go forth and be My disciples of Light, for the Light has already conquered the darkness.
•Three times He tells us: “I am making all things new”
Isaiah 65: 17- 19
Revelations 21:5
5 times He tells us “Believe”
What is Christ asking us to BELIEVE?
The fruit of our BELIEVING -- our faith, hope, and love -- is JOY and the ability to live REJOICING ALWAYS even in bad times.
