"Let us know,
Let us pursue the knowledge of the Lord,
His going forth is established as the morning;
He will come to us like the rain,
Like the latter and the former rain on the earth." Hosea 6:3

We learn what we are interested in.....how much do we want and desire to KNOW GOD and ENJOY HIM FOREVER?
HE never hides from us when we show that we are serious in our pursuit...seeking HIM. But for those who are only "fluffy, fleshy, flabby, frothy" in their commitment.....HE is "far away......"
Our life in Christ depends upon our will and motivation and level of SEEKING HIM!
Do the First Commandment...Love GOD with All of your heart, soul, strength and mind! Make this your Life Goal and Passion!
SOAK YOUR LIFE IN GOD!

I AM YOUR GUARDIAN!

Word for the Body of Christ: Received ~ Gerri Merrick ~ January 27, 2014

"Those who listen and watch and wait shall know for a certain...
I AM YOUR GUARDIAN!
I have said it before and it stands forever...I AM your GOD!
Nothing is impossible for ME!
I AM your Eternal God and Creator!

Now you are seeing why only FAITH pleases ME!
This is the Pathway made open for Our Partnership!
This is the Door wide open for Our Fellowship!
This is the Window of escape from the darkness!
LIGHT and TRUTH can flood into your life...FAITH!

Have I not said that I AM your high tower?
Have I not proclaimed freedom in ME?
Have I not defeated ALL of the works and powers set against you?
Have I ever disappointed you or left your side?
Have I not stood faithful to the Word of My Power?

So what is going on....all around you?
What is making so many of my Sheep tremble and be scattered?

Why will my people not bend their knees and trust ME to deliver them?
They are living divided lives of loyalty...the world, the flesh and the devil!
Only defeat and despair shall be born! Only LOVE for ME shall be counted!

But You who do know I AM....seek ME more than ever before!
Make My Word become your very Bread of Life!
Let the Water from the Holy Spirit soak into your entire existence!
Do not be deceived with the 'soft times and clever devices' of the world!
Suddenly, things can change in an instant and those not ready shall fall!

Yes, the times are evil!
Yes, there is much depravity in the hearts of men!
Yes, you clearly see and know the nature of evil...warring against ME!
Yes, there are many who will not turn to listen!
Yes, I will never stop hunting for the Lost Lambs!

You are with ME as your faith is with ME!
There shall not be a Dividing Line as We march forward together!
I AM YOUR SAFE PLACE! I AM YOUR GUARDIAN!
You have nothing to fear or dread! Trust ME!
I AM HERE! I AM NEAR! I AM YOUR GUARDIAN!"

But the wicked shall be silent in darkness.
For by strength no man shall prevail." I Samuel 2:9

GOD created each human being to have a Free Will...a mind for reasoning, planning & dreaming, imagining, creating, serving and inventing.
We solve problems and show all the facets of human emotions.

As Born Again Believers in Christ...New Creatures in the Eternal Family of God...the Body of Christ are the most "powerful" beings on this earth IF/WHEN we choose to rely upon our Father's guidance, wisdom and nature. This is to show the world...that JESUS is the RISEN LORD of GLORY!

This is to show the Goodness, Love, Mercy and Grace of GOD to all mankind. Our lives are like living out in a "courtroom drama" and in the End, we do overcome by the Blood of the Lamb and the Word of our Testimony...our surrendered life to CHRIST. We are called to be WITNESSES...not lawyers....think about this and how you show Christ.
You cannot be a "Witness" if you do not personally know JESUS and the Eternal Plan of GOD.

As our mind is renewed with the Word of God, Prayer and Obedience....we are Transformed 24/7 into the image of the CHRIST, the SON of the LIVING GOD....We, corporately, ARE the BODY OF CHRIST on the earth and... in the New Earth & Heaven Forever. We are His Ambassadors even now. REJOICE!

May we choose to Rise Up in Faith and higher commitments to our GOD!
May we truly see and understand the Glory we are called to live in Christ.
May each Believer in every nation...large or small...be Radiantly Filled with the Holy Spirit and hunger to KNOW and LOVE GOD! 

NOW IS THE TIME! TODAY IS THE DAY SALVATION!

WHEN?

 WORD for the Body of Christ: "WHEN?"

"WHEN have I ever failed you?
WHEN have I ever left you?
WHEN have I ever stopped My tender care?
WHEN do you not find Me if you look for Me?
WHEN has anything taken you from my care?
WHEN would I ever stop loving you?
WHEN would I set you down and leave you?
WHEN does my Creation not obey my Laws?
WHEN do you ever see Me fail?
WHEN can anything stop Me from My Ways?

Choose to surrender to My Arms of Love!
Choose to Trust and have confident Faith!
Choose to be who you are Born Again to be!
You are the key to this Delight in the New Life!

WHEN you come....then you shall always see ME!
WHEN you choose to seek...you shall always find!
WHEN you knock... it shall always be opened!
WHEN you choose to believe...Faith blooms!
WHEN you make ME the desire of your life...
WHEN you shall reap a life of REJOICING!"
