                    Be Healed and Be Fruitful

Beloved, you have been broken for too long.  It is time for healing.  You 
have struggled and tried to endure.  You have tried to smile and go on.  
But it is time for healing.  It is time for restoration.  I am doing a deep 
work within you.  You are Mine.  My hand has been upon your life all through 
the years.

The enemy has tried to destroy you.  He has sought to beat you down, to rob 
you of your joy.  He has told lie upon lie because he is the father of lies.  
I say to you, My lovely one, listen to My truth. Listen to My voice and 
tune you ears to My Spirit.  Resist the lies of the enemy, the deceiver.

Do not allow the enemy to rob you now through anger or unforgiveness.  
Forgive.  Forgive fully those who have wounded you, those who have rejected 
you and those who have mistreated you.  Forgive, regardless of how hard it 
may be.  Ask Me to enable you as you determine in your heart and declare 
with your mouth your forgiveness of all involved.

I am you maker, your creator and you are Mine.  You are beautifully and 
wonderfully made.  You are the workmanship of My hands.  I have called you 
to walk with Me, to minister to Me, to worship Me, so that I can minister 
through you and be glorified.  You are Mine and I am your God.  It is time 
for your healing so that you can walk in your destiny.

Beloved, come and rest in Me.  Bring all your cares, bring your burden to 
Me, lay them in My lap, let Me take them.  You were not made to carry these 
burdens, let Me take them.  My plans for you are good and not evil, My 
planned path for you is easy to walk, not hard.  Draw away with Me.  Seek 
My face.  Seek your wholeness, and your healing in time spent with Me.

Look into My Word, pray to see My heart and listen to My voice.  I have 
healing for you, even for the deep wounds of the past--even for the deepest 
wounds of your childhood.  You are Mine and I want to be glorified in your 
life.  Ask for your healing to bring glory to Me.

Look not to the right, nor the left, but listen to My voice.  Do you not 
know that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost who dwells within you, 
Who prays for you, Who leads you in prayer and speaks My answer to you?  
Look to Me and Me alone for your strength, your joy, your peace and your 
healing.

Come to Me for restoration, let Me complete the work I have begun in You.  
Draw close to Me under the shadow of My wing.  Draw all your sustenance 
from Me, as the branch lives only because it is attached to the vine--you 
live and blossom and bear fruit because you are one with Me.

I see you not as others see you, and not as you see yourself.  When I look 
at you I see the divine gift resident within you.  Others may not see your 
value.  They may discount you; see only the barrenness of a dry twig.  Even 
loved ones and friends may not see your potential, or your fruitfulness.  In 
My love I have cultivated and developed you.  My will is that you bear much 
fruit, that your gifts be realized and expressed, that even your hidden 
talents be revealed and become reality.  When I look at you I see your 
completion, your fruit.

Be all that I, the Lord God, have called you to be.  Don't let anyone--not
people, or Satan--dictate to you who you are and what you are, or what 
you can do in My kingdom.  I chose you.  I called you.  I have anointed you.  
Only I can tell you what you are to accomplish for Me, for My glory.

Come to Me, learn more of Me.  Listen to My heart.  Be healed.  Let Me 
complete the work of restoration I have begun in you, so that you can walk 
in the fullness of life that I have ordained for you to walk in.
