The sluggard says, “There is a lion
in the road! There is a lion in the streets!” As a door
turns on its hinges, so does a sluggard on his bed. Proverbs
26:13-14 (ESV)
Dear friends of Come Rest,
Just a brief, but clear, word for you
all to begin 2015. Believe with Kim and I that this will be the year of your
complete victory over your fear and the enemy’s intimidation. No matter how
messed up life seems, you will draw ever closer and come up even higher into
His presence and plan for your life. Whatever has threatened you in the past
will have no power over you. Jesus will help you stay face to face with Him
like never before. You will be His bold witness speaking His truth with His
love like never before.
Here is what I hear Him saying in my
heart, “The Lion in you is greater than the lion out in the street. I am the
Lion of the Tribe of Judah. No longer let anything intimidate you into
sluggishness. Let My Spirit lead you into My victorious rest. The antidote for
intimidation is intimacy with Me! All that I have is yours; you have nothing to
prove; let Me help you do things My way!”
I commend these words to all of you
as we begin 2015. Come rest in His love and bear His real fruit! Come up into
His heart and do not settle for anything less than Him and His way of life; let
Him teach you in 2015 to stay face to face with Him in the secret place in every
present moment of each precious day He gives you.
Thank you so much for your continued
participation, prayer, and financial support for Come Rest Ministries. We
anticipate an abundantly fruitful year in Jesus’ name.
Kim and I love and bless you all.
Happy New Year 2015!
