God has been speaking to me a lot lately about the purification that He is releasing in the church right now. So many people have been experiencing a lack of clarity and confusion to where you’ve been in a panic and filled with anxiety. I got a picture of people standing in a dark alley wondering panicking as they wondered which way to go. God is saying what you have been experiencing is the pull between what God is leading you to and where the enemy wants to keep you.
A lot of what the enemy wants to keep us inside of are ways, behaviors, and choices we have been a part of for a long time. They have been deeply embedded within us. But God is calling you higher right now and this is why you are experiencing anxiety. Now is the time for you to choose that which you have been crying out for.
The Lord has been bringing to my spirit a heap of songs lately, titled and filled with lyrics about God “taking it all away” and “refining” and pointing out anything in you that is offending Him. I feel like God is saying that many in the body of Christ have been praying to God asking Him to help them make Him their everything. To take away all the things that He doesn’t like and to make them more like Jesus, more Holy. God wants you to know that when you pray these prayers He is excited to answer them and He has been. But we must see and realize that to have more of Jesus we must be willing to lay down our way of living and thinking to pick up the true way of Living. I hear the Lord say “the anxiety is coming from the tension between your feet. You are keeping one foot 🦶🏼 where you want it to be and giving me the other. You cannot live on both sides. Choose me and so choose life.” God is inviting us to be a people who are ALL IN FOR HIM! 💪🏽
He is looking for those who will not only pray the prayers but will act upon them as He answers and leads us! Today, I felt so strongly God is saying “look to me. Look to me for help and wisdom and seek me so that you may know what it is I am revealing to you. What it is you need to lay down in order to step in to all that I have for you. Trust that I am jealous for your heart! Jealous for you to have the very best!”
The Father loves you and wants to lead you and guide you into all truth. The things of this world that you have sought after and compromised with are things that must be laid down in order to walk in all that God has for you! There is so much more ahead of you and for you as you align yourself with God and His plans and purposes for your life! This shifting and laying down of things as He leads you will open up doors for you that you could have only dreamed up! This is an Ephesians 3:20 season and God is about to unlock major blessings and increase like never before as you decide to surrender in a way you never have before! Trust Him. He loves you and He is for you!!
