Goodness

You say this world is filled with so much violence and pain, but yet you reject what is good.

The earth is full of My goodness, and it endures continually, but you must look to find it.

My Ways are unsearchable, but I desire to have mercy upon everyone.

Only God is Good: when goodness is dismissed and cast off, the enemy will pursue.

Seek and search for the Good Shepherd with all your heart and you will find Me. For I have given you My Good Word.

Jesus Christ, The Lord God

Abundant in Goodness & Truth

Strait Gate

There is a narrow passage connecting two seas; two kingdoms, if you will. I call it the Strait Gate. It is a portal that leads to Life, where you can see the Kingdom of God, but not everyone will gain entrance. The gate holds trouble and difficulty may pursue, but it is a place of receiving, a place to seize an abundant reward!

But there is also the Wide Gate, whose road is broad, full of darkness and the shadow of death. Silhouettes bleed through the shadows, revealing workers of chaos and confusion. This way is filled with destruction and has a taunting guardian.

I have divided the seas and gathered all the waters, silencing their roar and the crash of the waves. Follow Me through the Strait Gate and you will have the Light of Life.

For I AM the King of Glory, who holds the keys to hell and death, but I have given you the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven. An entrance to My everlasting Kingdom has been supplied to you, where My Saints hold possession and My Throne rules before a sea of glass.

Hurry! Lift up your heads and enter in through the Strait Gate, for few find it!

Jesus Christ

King of Glory

The Lord of Hosts

Breath of Life

I watched for the day of your birth: as you breached this world, I filled your lungs with My breath and engraved My Words on the tablet of your heart. I have always had a plan for your life, My Beloved.

But I see your heart is caught in the pain and pleasures of this earth, fighting for more but never having enough. It saddens Me that you are in this place of unsettlement, My Spirit grieved by the absence of your abiding love.

Your heart is far from Me; but I AM waiting for your return, while you are waiting for Mine.

The Lord Jesus Christ

The God Who Holds the Breath of Life

Sun of Righteousness

A note from The Lord Jesus Christ, Sun of Righteousness:

The love I hold for you is so intense and consuming; naturally, I hate it when you push away and abandon each other. I have always wanted you to love one another, but instead you are harboring violence deep in your hearts while adorned in cheerful clothing to hide your true self.

My covenants are for your protection, but I am afraid you have cast those away too. Be careful that you do not deal deceitfully, leaving yourself open for destruction.

I AM seeking someone who will bring an offering in righteousness. Will it be you?
