                        Time for My Power and Blessing 
   
You have labored hard over these long years of preparation and purification, 
and although you did fight and hesitate at times, you always surrendered to 
Me in the end and you did not withhold even your most precious things from 
My hand. You have let go of that which offended and hindered, and now you 
walk in purity and holiness because you cooperated with My daily training. 
You have let go of the past now, and you have forgiven those who wronged 
you. You have eagerly obeyed Me when you knew clearly that it was I that 
was speaking to you. Slowly but surely we made progress together day by day 
and the good changes that came were lasting ones.
   
Now it is finally time to begin to walk forward. It is time to believe for 
new things and it is time for My power and blessing to flow through your 
life. Though you were held back in the past and you seemed to have many 
false starts that just ended in more time of preparation, now you are ready 
to obey My voice and conquer the new land I am sending you to. Trust Me 
just as much now, as you have in the past, and obey Me just as much now in 
your promised land as you did in your wilderness time, even though it 
would seem that you have more freedom to make your own choices. I would 
call you to feed upon and listen to Me even more-so now as we enter this 
new time of increased power, blessing, and service.
   
I delight in restoring all that was sacrificed, and I delight in blessing 
you in front of those who judged you as a failure. You bore My reproach in 
order to be obedient to My calling, and in order that My heart might be 
formed in you so that you could serve in My power and love. Now I have a 
strong, reliable foundation of holiness, obedience, and love in you that I 
can build very high upon. Before, the cracks of pain and sin in your old 
foundation would have caused it to fail under pressure. Now I will build 
a great house of blessing upon that foundation for it is built upon Me, 
your Rock, and this new place will be a haven and storehouse for all I 
send to you. Be of good cheer, My child, for your time of power and blessing 
has finally come.
