By My Hand
-----

My hand is always open to you, My children. No matter where you are, My hand will always be there! Whatever you may go through, My hand will always be strong enough to life you up; higher and higher.

No matter which window of your life you look at, My children, look with the eyes of faith and you will always see My hand, My help, My strength, My peace, My guidance, My touch. I will always shelter you, My people, from the attack of the enemy as you put your trust in Me.

A mark of maturity is truly evident in the man whose eyes are ever fixed heavenward; forever fixed, in faith, on Me! This man will not stumble and fall for My hand shall surely guide him. This man will be raised above the earth, by My hand, to survey all that I have laid before him.

My children, are you this 'man'?

My precious ones, indeed I want you all to be this 'man', for he has learnt that in Me nothing is impossible. No matter how bleak it may seem, I can remove the darkness and shine My light to guide the way. I can bring you through every trial that faces you.

My children, a time of complete trust in Me has come!

Will you run with Me or will you remain at the starting gate because you are unprepared and unwilling to put your all in My hands? Have I not said that I will provide for your every need? Have I not declared that in these days to come that you will suffer trials . . . . indeed fiery trials? My children, only with Me will you endure the fire to receive the promise! Only with Me will you enter into the promises I have laid ahead for you. So precious are the promises and blessings I have for you, but how much more precious you are to Me.

I tell you this day, My Church, I am the Lord your God and you are My people - nothing will separate you from the My love.

How I picture you walking in the garden of plenty . . . the garden of promise I have planted !

My children, by My hand you will be led to this place!
By My hand you will surely receive all that I have promised!

Every blessing to you all,
Yours in Christ,
Andrew
