Ezekiel 37, Jeremiah chapters 23, 24, 32, 33
Susan, I speak and the word I speak becomes its own fulfillment. My Word is one with My action. When I speak, it is for the purpose of that word’s completion. My will is established in the moment of My speaking. What I have spoken, I have done.
Only My Word can boast the power of such oneness. Thus, your life’s work is to simply be still and know that I am God. What I say, occurs. To hear me is to see My movement as My word takes physical form in and through you. Spirit becomes tangible, breath brings life and dry bones live. Hear what I say about you and you will see it come to pass. My words are not for you to perform. My words are for you to hear and to observe. I perform My own Word and prove the glory of My sovereign existence within you.
I need you to trust, rest, watch, and to be awed at the fullness of My will and My intention to do it all and to be the All in all. I never tire, never grow weary, never give up. My word declares, it commands, it creates. There is no request in my word. My word is an eternal covenant. I have said you would serve Me with your whole heart and it is so. Just as My covenant with the day and night sky remains fixed so are My promises to you. Every word I speak is a promise and guarantee. I have spoken, rest in the reality of My word spoken.
My reply to the Lord (from the book of Habakkuk)
Lord, I do not want to fall prey to false idols, like “guilty men whose strength is their god.” You, Sovereign Lord, are my strength. You make my feet like the deer and You enable me to run on high places. Your strength is far greater, why would I ever make inferior strength my false idol?
Lord, You stand still, and the earth shakes. You look, and it trembles. You speak not, and the earth still knows that you are God.
Be Who You are in my midst. Procure reverence from the irreverent and subdue the restless and rebellious. Every knee bows, every tongue confesses. You, Lord, conform the unwilling and unmotivated places within me. Freedom of heart and motion are mine only as I rest in You. Your sovereignty is my strength. I glorify You in my weakness and You glorify me in Your strength. So be it, Lord, I would have it no other way. Take me wholly into You.
