PRESERVATION OF LIFE

For many of you, in this season you are seen, heard, cherished, cared for! Though it’s been the most harrowing, hard, lonely, difficult leg of your journey’s so far!

Many of you, I’ve had the privilege and honour to walk alongside over these last few years! The goodness of God never fails! When man fails, systems fail, vows made fail, when years of abuse being pursued by the enemy takes its toll, know this!

YOU’RE GOING TO SEE YOUR BEST DAYS YET

God sits on the mercy seat! Mercy is tethered to justice! There are natural consequences to pride, abuse, living a flesh life, making excuse for abuse. He is a loving Father whose ways are just and true! For some of you jail time will do. You will do your time and God will get the glory in your story! Green rooms with advocates next to the wire will provide solace for loved ones dear.

God won’t be mocked! Those of you who’ve led others out of abuse by the courage and fire of God to follow the Way- will see mercy and justice win the day! Where there’s entitlement and pride, selfishness and blind. Where there’s folly and self pity, the nature of God remains steady!

He is long suffering and kind, patient and true. He will NOT let you die! You have a reason to LIVE. You have worth, you have purpose, and there is MORE. The Word of the Lord over you is PRESERVATION OF LIFE!

Carers, Pensioners, CFO of that company, air hostess, Mummy of 4. Engineer, Street sweeper, School Janitor! Translator, Advocate, Minister, Business man and more!

Friend, there is MORE.

You’re going to see beauty for ashes, the power of LOVE lead you forth!

Where you’ve felt trapped and small, where strongholds have kept you looped, you’re going to break free, fresh ease! You can’t fix, save, change or rescue another person. Choices are choices given to each indeed! You are not God and it’s simply NOT your responsibility to carry false burdens dear! Bless those who curse, hand it all up in prayer! You are made in His image for love, a life of redemption dear! Perfect love has made a way through all you see today!

Where there’s been vows, letdowns, feelings of failure and disappointment. The unknown of how on earth am I going to get by dear? The energy and strength to choose to live this day with you all the way! Darling heart, you are not alone!

When peers, family, community all seem to be sailing by. You are seen, you are loved, you are cherished queen! Friend, you’re not going to prematurely die!

Where the exhaustion and overwhelm of all you’ve endured, the feelings of trapped seem to win the day, know this! IT WILL GET BETTER- HELP IS ON THE WAY!

You have nothing to be ashamed of!

Jesus came as perfect God and lived as perfect man !

He chose a crown of thorns for your break-free from this sham!

Trust me, it’s going to get better!

You’re going to rise from the ashes of abuse, misuse, pain, suffering, all done in the name of God which was a lie, blind guides! Old and New Covenants enmeshed together, a confusing cocktail of culture & traditions- entwined with entitlement and selfish flesh dear. It’s not the end of your story here. Where Scripture is twisted to control, use and abuse you’re seeing a white washed tomb. That’s not life, the message of the Gospel is LIFE!

Mercy, kindness, goodness! There’s a cue of people God has lined up over the next decade to help you along.. 1 by 1 they are coming along.. will you take Daddy’s hand? He’s going to lead you in pastures green son, daughter tonight! Psalm 23.

I’ve learned over the years that it’s better to face the music, fess up real quick. Living in the fear of the LORD releases LIFE!

You have a story and your best days are ahead yet! Out the other side of this holy and hard mess. What’s been done to you in the name of God is not a test. Where you’ve been treated like trash you’re in good company dear. Our lives are not worthy of the world and its ways. Yet we walk in OUTRAGEOUS favour! We have Daddy’s ear, he’s with us through the precious person Holy Spirit dear.. fighting our battles, bringing help along the way. Giving us peace, joy and a future that’s bright in the Way!

Tender and true, fire and life! The One who preserves our lives!

You’re so loved darling hearts! Much more to come! Courage and kind, you’re going to see miracle after miracle! All that’s been done seen, Daddy’s got you!! In the days ahead you’re going to see acceleration on all you put your hands to! The fake is coming down, lives set free! True gold, on steady ground!

Praying for you!
