Who are YOU?

Today, I'm sharing this word of comfort and encouragement that I received from the Spirit of God a little while ago. 

I believe everyone, everywhere, at one point or another, regardless of whether you are going through a rough patch or having a mountaintop experience, you need to hear this, or at least, to be reminded of this truth. I call you blessed! 



Your identity comes from Me and no one else. 
In Christ you are my child and I am pleased with you. 

You are not what your circumstances say you are, 

you are not what people say you are, 

you are not what you do or don't do, 

you are who I say you are.

Learn to accept and value My opinion of you, 

value it  more than anyone else's opinion of you, 

man's opinion of you can and will change, but Mine will never, 

It has been established from eternity. 

And now you get to walk in the revelation of it. 

In Christ Jesus and through faith in Him alone, 

You are My child, My son, My heir

Stand strong in Me, 

Stand firm in who you are in and to Me. 

You are My beloved, 

that's your true identity, 

live in it and live from it, 

and experience My joy, My rest and My peace, 

regardless of what's going on around you.

Again, I call you blessed!

Stay the Course!

I'm sensing the Spirit of God is impressing upon my spirit to release the following words of  ENCOURAGEMENT, EXHORTATION AND COMFORT to all ministers going through some rough patches right now!
You can count on the Lord's steadfast love and faithfulness towards you.
STAY THE COURSE!
**************************************


Beloved, when all is said and done,
the trying situation you are facing right now will pale in comparison to the glory that awaits.
Just as all things shall pass...yes all things... the Father's Word is the only exception, for it is forever settled in Heaven...
you will outlast whatever you're up against.
You are not alone, you have your Father's Spirit in you, 
Through Christ you can do all things, yes ALL things. 

Refuse to doubt Him who called you, instead latch onto His promise and stay the course!

The mountain in front of you doesn't make any difference to The One who called you by His Name and not only made you a partaker of His Divine Nature, but also anointed you and made you an able minister of the New Covenant! His banner over you is love, His perfect love - receive it and banish all fear! Mountains crumble before Him, nothing can stand against the King of Kings  and Lord of Lords! Nothing!

Remember, He who has begun a good work in you will complete it, yes He will.
He is faithful to finish what He starts, so stay the course.
When the terrain gets challenging, He steadies your feet, 
when the winds howl, He shelters you, 
when the seas get rough, remember He is holding you,
when the storms rage, He is your peace...

Fear not, you are not going under, you are going over!
So stay the course!

You will go through fire, yes you will...but... 
fear not, it is the Refiner's fire and you will come out of it glowing,
reflecting Christ Jesus all the more!
Like clay in the Potter's hands you will be molded as He sees fit,
and you will come out rejoicing!
A vessel fit for the Master's use, 
disseminating the fragrance of Christ everywhere you go,
with a new song of the Father's enduring mercy and faithfulness.
Do not abort, your expectation will not be cutoff,
Stay the course!
