EZEKIEL 36:24-28

24 For I will gather you from all the nations and bring you back to your own land. 25 Then I shall pour pure water over you and you shall be made clean—cleansed from the defilement of all your idols. 26 I shall give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you. I shall remove your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. 27 I shall put my spirit within you and move you to follow my decrees and keep my laws. 28 You will live in the land I gave your ancestors; you shall be my people and I will be your God.

---- mine,

These are My promises to you because of My covenantal love with you. I will always bring you home, no matter how far you wander away from Me. I will pursue you to the ends of the earth and find you, no matter where you have hidden yourself out of shame and sorrow and guilt over your sins, I will find you. I will set you free, I will wash you clean, I will touch and heal every one of your wounds. I will make you whole. I will forgive all your sins. I will remove your guilt. I will bathe you in My Blood. I will fill you with My Spirit. Fear nothing, ---- my own, these promises are not only for you but for all those you love, your children and your children's children, and through the coming generations. I assure you that once I have restored you, no power can take you away from Me again. Come to Me, rest in Me, be rooted in Me. Be filled with My Holy Spirit. Know the love of God the Father for you, who has loved you so much that He gave Me up to evil so you could be ransomed from the powers of darkness. You are Mine, and not just you, but all those you love and pray for so ardently each day. Be still and know that I AM God; nothing is too difficult for Me. Rejoice and be glad for it delights My Father to give you a share in My Kingdom.

MATTHEW 21:18-22 (2025)

MATTHEW 21:18-22

18 While returning to the city early in the morning, Jesus felt hungry. 19 He noticed a fig tree by the road, went up to it and found nothing on it but leaves. So he said to the tree, “Never again bear fruit!” And immediately, the fig tree withered. 20 When the disciples saw this, they were astonished and said, “How did the fig tree suddenly dry up?” 21 Jesus said, “Truly, I say to you: if you had faith and did not doubt, not only could you do what I did to the fig tree, but you could even say to that mountain, ‘Go, and throw yourself into the sea!’ and it would be done. 22 Whatever you ask for in prayer, full of faith, you will receive.”

---- mine,

I hunger for your love, I hunger for you to talk to Me and tell Me everything that is going on in your life. I hunger for your nearness, to be one with you, to abide in you, and have you abide in Me. Don't let your life become a sham, hollow, full of empty promises like the fig tree covered in leaves. Do not let your life be a lie, indicating that you have to give what you clearly do not. I abhor hypocrites and liars. But the humble, to be obedient, the contrite of heart are the ones I love and will eagerly help and fill with every good and perfect gift if you would only ask. I long to fill your life with all that is good, all that is beautiful, all that is perfect, but you ignore me, preferring to trust your own wisdom and judgement. You are determined to live your life apart from Me, and if you do, you will eventually shrivel up, wither, and die. Come to Me in all your necessities in life, confide in Me, ask, and you will receive all you need and My Kingdom as well. Begin now to ask in faith for all you need with expectant faith, and you will see miracles take place in your life and in the lives of those you love.
