Comfort Ye My People

Isa 40:1-5 KJV 1 Comfort ye , comfort ye my people, saith your God.
2 Speak ye comfortably to Jerusalem, and cry unto her, that her warfare is accomplished, that her iniquity is pardoned: for she hath received of the LORD's hand double for all her sins. 3 The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the LORD, make straight in the desert a highway for our God. 4 Every valley shall be exalted, and every mountain and hill shall be made low: and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough places plain: 5 And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.
Isa 40:10-11 KJV Behold, the Lord GOD will come with strong hand, and his arm shall rule for him: behold, his reward is with him, and his work before him. 11 He shall feed his flock like a shepherd: he shall gather the lambs with his arm, and carry them in his bosom, and shall gently lead those that are with young.
The Lord spoke:
“Know that I am not blind to the sufferings, temptations and torments of My beloveds. I know every hurt, every pain, every loss, every persecution and frustration. I know everything in your hearts. And I am NOT aloof to your condition. I AM ARISING with healing in My wings. I AM ARISING with justice for My own. That which I have said, I will perform. I am not a man that I should lie, nor a son of man that I should change My mind.
SPEAK OUT THE TRUTH beloveds of what I have told you I will do. DECLARE IT TO THE HEAVENS. BE BOLD, BE STRONG in the power of MY MIGHT ! Know that I am with you and will empower you to STAND in this hour against all that is arrayed against you. I told you I have my own surprises, My own suddenlies. I have ways of thwarting all the evil plans of men against you. Know that I can RESTORE anything you have lost.
I am not weak and apathetic as men are these days. I AM FAITHFUL and TRUE. I do what I say I will do, though not in your timing, I will perform My word to you.
The ride is going to get a lot bumpier beloveds. But I have not forgotten My promises to you. I have a book of remembrance. And My promises to you will be kept.
Mal 3:16 NKJV A Book of Remembrance
Then those who feared the LORD spoke to one another, and the LORD listened and heard them; So a book of remembrance was written before Him For those who fear the LORD and who meditate on His name.
My love never fails beloveds. I know yours fails at times and you feel frustrated with yourself at times, wanting to be more like Me. And that is also what I want for you. So I am telling you that I will empower you to comfort those who have suffered like you with the comfort I have given you. There is much turmoil and discomfort ahead for this nation, but I AM YOUR COMFORTER. I AM not aloof to the condition of the church or the nation. I have all in My hands. Nothing surprises me.
AWAKEN THOSE WHO ARE ASLEEP. TRUMPET FORTH the words I speak in your ear. SHOUT them from the rooftops, and let others know My plans. BREAK THROUGH THE APATHY over this nation by reaching out your hand to comfort others who are discomforted. Comfort the lost and homeless. Comfort the runaway youth. Comfort the aged in nursing homes, the single moms barely making it. Use what you do have and don’t look at what you don’t have. They will appreciate any comfort. But be led by MY SPIRIT, and not a sense of obligation or guilt. Do not do it under constraint, but with a willing spirit AS I LEAD YOU.
Prepare your hearts now, by shutting yourself in with ME. Don’t’ run from the quiet and secret place. Don’t jump out of my arms to do anything else. JUST STAY a while and allow me to touch you and heal the last vestiges of pain in your hearts. LET me deliver you from all that has assailed you. I will REMOVE the pitfalls, and all the ramparts of the enemy against you. Do not give in to DEFEATISM.
I have plans for you that are meant for good, and not for evil.
I have a plan that works. So just come away for a bit. Shut yourself in.
Come and let us reason together, and have sweet fellowship.
Worship ME in the beauty of holiness. I will not disappoint you.”
