I am your assurance. I am your assurance. Have I failed you? No, I have not. I am faithful and I am true and my word is good. It stands to all generations. It will never fail—I will never fail and I will never fail you! I am your assurance. I am your assurance! Keep your eyes on me. And I say: Rest in my peace. I give you my peace. The battle is not yours. The toil is not yours. The work is not yours. The building is not yours. None of these things belong to you. They are mine and you are mine. I am your assurance. It is I who do the work. It is I who do the work.

You are called to be faithful, so just be faithful. Be faithful to me and look to me and trust in me. That is all I ask you to do. Trust in me. Believe in me and believe in my words. Prove me and know that I am God and that there is no other. It’s I who lift up and I who cast down. All things are in my hands, it all belongs to me. You can trust in me. I have spoken and it has come to pass and it will always come to pass for I cannot lie. I am not a man. I am God. I am God. I am God.

I ask you just to seek me. Seek to know me. Seek to know me. Allow me to have my perfect work in you—in you. Seek to know me and I will show you my will and I will pour out my Spirit, for it’s through my Spirit that the work will be done. And I ask you to walk in my Spirit. Walk in my Spirit and my Spirit will do the work. Ask me and you will receive. But you must ask according to my will and for my glory. It is my will to save and I see those that you are praying for and I am even now moving in their hearts and I am speaking to them and they will come and they will come to me and I will save them and I will build up this work and I will build up my kingdom. And I will bless. I will bless because it’s my desire and it’s in my heart to bless. I love my children and I wish to bless them! And I will bless.

So take heart; and don’t be discouraged! Don’t be discouraged. What do you have to be discouraged about? You have me, and I am all that you need. I am all that you need. And I will take care of you, and I will carry you. I have always carried you and I will continue to carry you and I will not grow tired and I will not grow weary and I will give my strength to you that you will not faint and you will not grow weary and you will find your rest in me and all things will be done for my glory. Just wait on me, wait on me. Believe in me and trust in me and the things that you will see you will not even have been able to have imagined. But it’s not for your glory. It’s for my glory. It is for my glory.

Mine is a still, small voice. You are weighted down with the cares of your life. You cannot hear me. And I ask you, why are you weighted down? Do you not believe that I am who I say I am?

I want to lead you to a new place. I want to show you things about myself that you do not know. I long to. I long to. But you’re busy with the clamor. I want to teach you to still yourself in my presence and learn of me and truly sit at my feet and hear me speak to you, for there is much I want to say. There is much I need to say. There is much that you need to hear and there is much that you need to learn. And I am patient, and I am not forceful. And I call, and I call, and I call. And I’m always there. And I wait. I wait on you. But I ask you—isn’t it you who should be waiting on me? Shouldn’t you wait on me? I want to teach you to learn to wait on me, and to wait in my presence, and to find your joy in waiting in my presence.

There is a false religion out there that is full of activity and business—but they don’t know me and they don’t hear my voice. My sheep know my voice. And they’ve learned it from sitting in the green and quiet pastures—with the Shepherd. There is no substitute for my Spirit, and there is no substitute for time in my presence. The truly wise know this. But it’s a narrow way. And I speak truth to you tonight and I invite you and I ask you to learn of me. I say to you, come unto me and learn of me. I ask you to sit in my presence. There’s a work that my spirit desires to do in each one of you. But the only way I can work is when you sit in my presence and learn of me.

I tell you tonight, in the quiet stillness: This is me. This is my Spirit. These are my words to you. I am here. I manifest myself in many ways for I am God and I can do all things. But it’s best to know me in the quiet place where there are no distractions and you can hear my voice clearly. Truly it is simple. It is simple as this. If you will come to me daily and sit at my feet, I will give you your daily bread. And it will be all that you need, for I am that bread, and I am all that you need.
