Message God spoke to my heart that I wrote down in my journal on 1-20-21…
Feast in the Famine
My people are hungry for real food. They’ve been feeding themselves “comfort foods” that only satisfy the flesh for a short time. After a while they are weighed down and slowed down because of these comforts. They are never truly nourished by these things and I will allow them to notice it.
Remember to come anytime and be nourished by Me; Relax in My presence to fuel up on hope. These idols of comfort will no longer bear that fruit. People will have to choose what they will feast on- fear or faith. If they feast on fear, their fragile foundation will become evident. If they feast on faith, their eyes will be turned to Me and onto My character. Feast on worshipping Me and remember My character. Keep My character in the forefront of your mind. Do not entertain fear. Your joy is what will set you apart.
I’ll feed you spiritually and you will be renewed. My people will turn from their empty strength and allow Me to show them true muscle. Be strengthened by My might, not your own. Feast on My love for you. Feed my sheep. 💕
Scripture to ponder:
❤️Matthew 5:6
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.
❤️John 6: 27 Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on him God the Father has placed his seal of approval.”28 Then they asked him, “What must we do to do the works God requires?”29 Jesus answered, “The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent.”30 So they asked him, “What sign then will you give that we may see it and believe you? What will you do? 31 Our ancestors ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written: ‘He gave them bread from heaven to eat.’”32 Jesus said to them, “Very truly I tell you, it is not Moses who has given you the bread from heaven, but it is my Father who gives you the true bread from heaven. 33 For the bread of God is the bread that comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.”34 “Sir,” they said, “always give us this bread.”35 Then Jesus declared, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.
❤️Ephesians 6:10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith,with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.18 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.
Until next time,
