“Luke 4:18-19

New International Version

¹⁸ “The Spirit of the Lord is on me,
    because he has anointed me
    to proclaim good news to the poor.
He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners
    and recovery of sight for the blind,
to set the oppressed free,
¹⁹     to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”^[a]“

When I was visiting, praying and eating with people in need of much love a pink blanket came to me. The Lord says it is time for a new blanket. Hold and Go, He calls it. Hold Your Peace and Go. He taught me this when He sent me to Florida last year. It was all about the Will of God covering all things. The Cover, if you will, is from the Mission of the Mustard Seed. Oh what the Spirit does with someone who has faith as small as a mustard seed. It is amazing. Outstanding. Miraculous. You move in Faith and all of Heaven moves with you. You keep moving in Faith and All of Heaven shows you just how they designed it all. It and you have always been under Divine Design. Some of us just get lost in the shuffle of someone else’s cards. When we realize that the only real hand on us is God then we wake up to this amazing truth.

We are free from the illusion of not being loved. We are free from the illusion of not being valued. We are free from the illusion that we are not worthy. We are free from the illusion that we are not all brilliant and shining stars for Christ. We are all born under illusion in some capacity whether it be due to our ancestors or our current parents or both. It is up to us to choose love. When we choose love we choose God. When we choose God trust that your life starts changing immediately. Some of us choose God and forget that we did. Some of us choose God and don’t accept the reality that our life actually changed. We go along blind still even after marrying ourselves to Christ. We walk along thinking that everything is still the same when in reality we are just not seeing with new eyes. Pray for new eyes and your thoughts will start to match accordingly. Pray for new ears and your ears will start to match accordingly. Pray for a new heart and a new Spirit and be prepared to walk in Mercy, Trusting God with every moment and being moved according to His Will.

The part we forget is that this is God’s Creation, not ours. We spend so much time fighting against what He has already created for us to dance in. Pray for union, surrender and the greatest love and you will receive it.

Much Love, Melissa
