“Experience My Love” – God

My child, tell the others how much I love them so they can experience My love too. It is more than “get saved”. It’s to live in and experience My love for them, for I truly love each one.

If only they could comprehend the infinity of My love for them. If only they could understand infinite expanse of My love for them. Then they would gladly come into My Presence.

Experience His love

But alas, some listen to the lies of the enemy who tells them I only want to control them and make their lives miserable. They suppose I am full of impossible rules of submission, performance, and more work. Nay, I say. Lies, lies.

What I do want is to fill their lives with joy unspeakable, love without boundaries, inexpressible love, and peace within their hearts, souls, and mind. This peace is inconceivable to those who reject My love.

My Child, it’s My pleasure to be with My children just as it’s your pleasure to be with your children.

My Lord, how we all need you, your love, the peace you give, and the joy we have in your Presence. Oh, the sweetness of life is your Presence, the joy of being in your Presence. Thank you for your love.

In fact, I am the God of eternal love, not the condemning God that the enemy, the chief liar, accuses Me of being. Yes, I am the God of the unconceivable, beyond your comprehension love, love beyond eternity.

I know it is hard for you to fully understand the fullness of My love. But as you come forth into My Presence you will understand more and more. Indeed, as you seek My Presence, you will experience more and more of My love, joy and peace.

My Lord God Almighty, I do want Your Presence with me. I do want Your love.

Child, I also want you. This is so I can fill your heart, soul, and mind with My love, joy, and peace. Try to understand the fullness of My love.

The enemy, chief of liars, has portrayed Me as the hard judge just waiting to punish you every time you step out of line. Not so, I am the God of eternal beyond comprehension, eternal love, joy, and peace.

What I offer to those who will accept it, is a life of love, joy, peace, and assurance of victory, no matter the circumstances. So come, My child, come receive what I offer you, a new life of love, joy, and peace, a new life of victory.

Come receive. Because I am not a God who takes away joy and demands your sacrifice. No, instead, I am a God who willingly sacrificed Myself for you. I gave all of Myself for you so that you could freely receive true life eternal.

Come, experience My love. Bask in My love, a love you have never had before. Because I offer you true life, more abundantly full of love, joy, and peace. Now come receive what I have in My hand for you. It’s just waiting for you to receive.

Yes Sir, here I am. Fill me, Lord with Yourself. Fill me with more of You. I choose You. Help me to walk in Your will, in all things, in all my ways.

God’s Love for You

What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? Romans 8:31-32

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. John3:16

Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends. John 15:13

Listen And Obey Without Hesitation

Child, if you will listen and obey without hesitation, then “I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go. I will guide you with My eye.” Psalms 32:8.

Lord, that’s what I want. Guide me, lead me.

Listen and Obey (Photo by Deborah Crocker)

Then, My child, you must be willing to listen and obey without hesitation the first time, not later. So follow My instructions immediately when you hear My voice speaking to your heart.

But Lord, how will I know it’s You and not myself speaking to myself?

Child, you will know. My children hear My voice, “Your ears will hear a word behind you, saying, ‘This is the way, walk in it,’ whenever you turn to the right hand or whenever you turn to the left” Isaiah 30:21

Lord, I want to hear Your voice.

Then My child, you must be willing to listen. Be still before Me and listen. Be still before Me and listen. Fine tune your ears. Shut out all distractions and be willing to listen and obey. Also, be willing to follow as I lead you.

Be still and know I am God. . . Psalms 46:10

Lord, what do you say now?

Listen and obey
God loves you. (Photo by Deborah Crocker)

Child, I love you; I adore you, and I will never give up on you no matter how many times you turn away. I will always be calling your name and I will always be calling on your heart. So come before Me now, My child, and let Me speak to your heart, soul, and mind.

Then I will fill you with Myself, My Presence, so that you may go forth sharing My love with those I place in your path. Even those that irritate you, share My love with them. Even those that intimidate you, share My love with them. And even those who hurt and disappoint you, share My love with them.

Because that’s what I do. Many have hurt and disappointed Me. But yet, I continue reaching out for them, each one, to share My love with them. Even though many reject Me, I still continue reaching out to them in love.

Because I am patient, I will wait as long as it takes to reach each one. Also, I am constantly providing opportunities and additional chances for each one to come to Me in surrender so that I may bless them. I plan to each one individually with My love, My precious tender love.

Since I’ve already made the sacrifice. I’m only waiting for them, each one, to suddenly awaken from their slumber and spiritual blindness to come to the realization of My deep love for them, for each one exactly where they are and what they are doing. I am still calling on their hearts, souls, and minds.

Come home, My child. Come home, for I am waiting to bless you with blessed assurance of My love for you. So, come home My Child. Run into My waiting arms to receive you with My forgiveness of all your past, all your present, and even all your mistakes in your future.

In fact, I will heal you of your brokenness, both inside and out. So come forth, My child. Come into My Presence for I am calling your name. I have not forgotten you and I never will.

Choose God’s Way (Photo by Deborah Crocker)

But it is up to you to choose, for I will never ever force Myself upon you. No, instead I am forever waiting for you, to receive you into My arms, to love you and to cover you with My blessings of love eternally.

Come to Me, My child. I am calling your name. In fact, I have your name written on My hand. I will never forget you or forsake you. I will never cheat on you for I am the one who loves you more than you can imagine or know.

So come to Me, My child, for I am here for you. I offer unto you a life filled with joy and peace, love and joy. Come unto Me, My child. Come unto Me.

It Just Takes Faith

Lord, I know it just takes faith. So I’m asking You to increase my faith, especially to overcome my compulsive overeating. This is what bothers me the most.

  • If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow Me. Matthew 16:24
  • . . . If you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, “Move from here to there, and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you. Matthew 17:20

Child of Mine, not even losing excess weight is impossible. In fact, it’ll be easy. Because it just takes a little faith.

  • However this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting. Matthew 17:21

Child of Mine, yes, it will take some denying yourself and some fasting. So start today with denying yourself and some fasting too.

But Lord, I don’t like to fast. I don’t want to fast.

Child of Mine, know that everytime you say, “No” to calories-laden food pleasure, it’s a form of fasting. Everytime you say “No” to temptation, you’ll grow stronger. So begin your walk in your new strength today.

  • Jesus said to him, “If you believe, all things are possible to him who believes. Mark 9:23
  • “Lord, I believe. Help my unbelief.” Mark 9:24

So, Child of Mine, it will take some fasting and letting go, for your victory. Are you willing?

Lord, I am willing, but I am weak.

  • The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trust in Him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart greatly rejoices, and with my song I will praise Him. Psalms 28:7
  • In the day I cried out, You answered me, and made me bold with strength in my soul. Psalms 138:8

Child of Mine, you already have the strength to say “No” to temptation for I have already given it to you.

  • You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. 1John 4:4

Yes, Child of Mine, you have all the power you need. As a matter of fact, you already have all the strength you need to overcome and destroy all the giants of defeat in your life. Because the victory to overcome is already yours. In fact I have granted you victory.

  • I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go. I will guide you with My eye. Psalms 32:8

Child of Mine, I will lead you to the victory I designed for you. After all, you just need a little faith.

Freedom From Entrapment

Child, I’m offering you freedom from entrapment. So come to Me all throughout your day. Then I can help you walk in freedom, joy, and peace. But you must come to Me first seeking My direction over all your choices, even your food choices. For then, I can set you free from your food addiction.

Lord, I don’t know what to do.

Fredom from entrapment
God will lead you to your freedom. (Photo by Deborah Crocker)

Come to Me all throughout this day. Talk to Me about everything, especially before making decisions. Because then I can lead you to what is best for your life. And I will give you victory. After all, you do want victory, don’t you?

Yes Sir, I do.

Then, Child, the only to guarantee you have for victory is to walk in My Presence. Because there you will find peace, strength, and wisdom. As you seek Me, I will lead you. In fact My Child, I have victory for this day already planned for you. So look for it.

Instead of your “to do” list, why don’t you make a “Victory list” for today. Throughout your day, list your victories. Try this every hour. Then you can see how blessed you are.

As you look for your victories, you’ll find them. They will not be hard for you to see. Just open your eyes. Because I have placed them all around you. Just look and see what I have done.

Also turn your eyes away from evil of all kinds, your so-called news, your so-called social media, and your so-called entertainment. Turn your eyes upon Jesus . . .

Lord, I turn to You. Help me today in all I do and say. Guide me in all my eating and not eating too. Indeed, I want freedom from this entrapment of food addiction. So I ask You, help me defeat this enemy within my life.

I give myself to You. Have Your way in my life. Thank you for hearing my prayers and My heart-cries too.

A Special Guest Who Brought Six Extra Friends

A special guest came to our family Christmas party and He brought six of His friends with Him too. How did I feel about this extra guest? I was so excited. And I was excited about His six friends too. Was I worried I would have enough food for them all? No, not at all.

Let me explain. Our family Christmas gathering was after Christmas. Due to everyone’s different schedule, it seemed best. Also, it gave me additional time to recover after foot surgery to wait until after Christmas.

You know how so many say their family gatherings are so miserable and conflicting due to different opinions. In the middle of the night before our family gathering, I woke up worried about it..

We, like everyone else, have family members with different opinions. We also have a somewhat conflicted past of many hurts we’ve caused one another. So I woke up worried about it.

God told me to come talk to Him about it. So I got up and went to my prayer spot. There it came to me to read Psalms 24.

Lift up your heads, O you gates! And be lifted up, you everlasting doors! And the King of glory shall come in. Psalms 24:7

Then He spoke to my heart, “Child, the family gathering today will be all good, for I am coming to your house. And I’ll work out all things for My glory. Therefore it’s for your good too. I’ll heal hearts today. And I’ll restore relationships too. Because I am bringing Healing and Restoration with Me when I come. I’m also bringing Peace, Joy, Love, and Forgiveness too.”

My special guest came too
You don’t see my special guest,but He was here the whole time. (Photo by Deborah Crocker)

Jesus, my special guest, is coming to my family gathering and bringing six guests too! I’m so excited! Can’t wait!

So, at our gathering, everyone had a great time. We laughed together and played games. We exchanged presents with one another. Many hugs and laughter. I’m so glad Jesus, came and brought His six friends with Him too.

My special guest came, but you don't see Him.

You couldn’t see them, but they showed up in everyone’s face. You could hear them in our laughter too. I’m so glad my special guests showed up. And all my family had a good time too.

I suggest you invite Jesus to your next family gathering. Maybe He’ll bring His other friends too.

Lord, are You for real?

Yes, I Am the most real you’ll ever know. I am more real than all you can see. I am indeed the realist Presence you’ll ever know.

Are you for real

Are You my imagination or maybe, are you’re just my inner voice? Are You for real?

Child, I AM the realist of all. I am the beginning of all and the end of all. And I am the before and the after too. I am all around you and in you too. Overall I am everything and all encompassing. In fact I am the answer to all your questions.

Lord, there is so much I don’t understand.  

Trust me child. Walk with Me. Talk with Me, for I will lead you as you lean on Me. And I will teach you as you listen. I only ask that you love Me for I love you more than you can ever know.

But Lord, what about all those promises You gave me? They haven’t come through. As a matter of fact, as I look back, some of them are far-fetched.

Child, life is a series of ups and downs. Mostly much ado about nothing. People tend to make little things big and unsurmountable. But I can do all things, even what you consider impossible. For I am a God of the impossible. I take the impossible and create wonders of amazement.

Are you for real Lord?
God created this. (Photo by Deborah Crocker)

Look at My creations. It has not even entered into man’s heart all the wonders of My creation. So open your eyes to behold what I have done.

As your body ages, it is in the process of dying. But those, as you say, who have died are now more alive than you.

What about those still struggling with their life issues and wrong choices? I’ve prayed so much for them to find you. But so far nothing. Therefore, they’re still struggling and lost.

Oh My child, again you are wrong. I know exactly where each one is. And I know their hearts. Yes it’s true their wrong choices brought much heartache, both to them and the others in their lives. Just as your wrong choices bring you heartache and struggle.

But I know exactly where each one is. They are not totally lost. They need to find Me, for they do not know where I am. Therefore they feel lost.

But the “Great I Am” is calling their name. I’m calling them to come to Me. And as they come, they will be found. As they open their hearts to Me, I will draw them into My love.

Child, I love each one, even those you consider unlovable. And when they find Me, they will find My love for them. As they come I will fill their hearts with love, peace, joy, and yes, even My wisdom so they can make better choices next time.

Child, do you believe Romans 8:28?

Surrender Is The Key

Child, surrender is the key to victory and prosperity. As you surrender yourself, your heart, your dreams, and your desires I will bless you.

But Lord, I don’t know what to write.

Child, I’ll give you the words to speak, but first you must surrender all. You must feed yourself of My Holy Spirit. Before you can help others, you must first feed yourself My Word and My Presence.

Yes Sir.

Just as on a plane, the parent should put on their oxygen mask first. Then put the mask on the child next. So feed yourself and take in the breathe of My Holy Spirit. Because of Me, your victory is assured.

So take in the breathe of My Holy Spirit, My Presence first, and before all else. Then you can help others. Feed on My Word and My Presence. Then you will receive power to defeat your enemies, especially your greatest enemy, Satan.

After all, his desire is to keep you defeated and discouraged. So feed on My Word and My Presence, My Holy Spirit, for therein you will find power.

Now My Child, it’s time to clean up your own backyard, your eating habits, your heart, and your attitudes. So quit worrying about the future. Take one day at a time, one day. Make it your goal to seek My will and then follow My will. For what good is it if you ask for advice and then never follow it?

So your focus should be surrender first. Then look to Me for your instructions. Next, follow how I lead you. Surrender is the key to your victory and a successful life of victory.

Surrender. Look to Me and listen for instructions. Follow, trust, and obey how I lead you. After all your job is not a quota. Your job is surrender. That’s your focus, surrender, the first key to unlock your victory.

Yes Sir.

Child, keep your eyes on Me and your heart surrendered to me. Let go of all that is in your hand. Then open your hand to receive what I have for you. It’s beyond your expectation. Keep your eyes on Me.

As you surrender to My will (especially your food), I will make you stronger. As you let go, I will increase your strength. Now let go.

Yes Sir.

Let go of it all and come before Me, completely surrendered and empty of all that clutters your heart, and your mind. Allow Me to fill you with Myself.
Quit wishing for more time and accomplish what I tell you to do, in the time I give you.

Because I’ll give you all the time you need to accomplish all, each and every task I assign you. So seek My will each day. Then watch and see what I will do with your time. I can multiply it.

Your key to success is surrender. So therefore, surrender yourself and all you are, all your dreams, desires, and wishes. Surrender your all to Me. Then watch and see what I do.

And quit trying to figure everything out. Just focus on surrender. As you take each step in complete surrender, I’ll lead you to your own personal victory.

So My Child, quit trying on your own. Give it all to Me.

Yes sir. Lord, take it. Take me. I give myself to thee. Do with me as your wish.

Child, do not fear for I am with you. Surrender is the Key.
