                      Fix Your Eyes On Me

Child of Mine, I want you to take your eyes off of the fears and cares 
of this world and put them on Me. It is true that the world is entering
difficult season, but the many things troubling it should not be a cause
of fear to you. You are a citizen of Heaven and your well being is not 
determined or governed by the present day world situations, for I am 
still on My throne and I am able to supply all of your needs. Yes, dear 
one, I am your loving Father and I take good care of My own. I have the 
ability to provide for you in the midst of famine and drought and 
economic crisis. And I am faithful to do so.

So do not put your focus on the cares of this world; for if you do, it 
will trouble your spirit and cause you to live in fear. Look instead to
Me, dear one, for I am the solution to the problems.

I am asking you to press in to Me, for you will find safety in the 
shadow of My wings. Have I not said in My word that a thousand may fall 
at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come 
near you?* Don't you think I meant what I said? The truth is that I
am the solution to your problems, so look expectantly to Me and press
into Me--for in Me you will find peace, protection and provision.

Little one, the enemy of your soul would try to get you tied up in
worry and alarm about the cares of this world. He does so in hopes that
this will keep you from pressing into Me. But I say to you: Press in!
Draw near! 

This is not the time to cower in a corner and it is not the time to 
give into fear. It is the time where I am making a separation between 
those who are Mine and those who are of this world. It is a time when 
the world systems may fail you and your own government may let you 
down you, but I will not. So don't look to these things to take care 
of you--look to Me.  

Remember how I took care of My own when they were in the wilderness. 
Did I not give them food to eat and water to drink--even though there 
was no way in the natural for them to obtain these things? Or look back 
to how I took care of Israel and his family in the time of great famine 
and drought. I went before them and set one of their own in place to 
provide for all of their needs. Or look at how I multiplied the widow's 
oil (the one thing she had) when she was in a time of personal and 
economic hardship and crisis, so that she could sell it to supply her 
material needs. Or look at how I multiplied the tiny portion of oil and 
flour to provide for Elijah and the widow and her son in the midst of a 
great famine and drought. 

Do you still question My ability to provide for you? Then look at My 
Son and at the many miracles He did. Did He not multiple bread many 
times, feeding thousands from what was only enough to feed a single 
person? Did not not give wine at the wedding feast when the natural 
supply had run out?

Dear one, My resources are not limited and I am willing to provide for
all of your needs--all that I ask from you love Me with all of your
heart, and all of your soul and all of your mind; that you obey My
commands and worship and honor Me in all you do. This is no more than 
I ask of you in times of abundance and plenty. 

Dear one, I am well able to take care of you, and I want you to take
your eyes off of the many problems of this world and fix them on Me.
Remind yourself of My faithfulness and of My goodness and of My love.
Trust in Me and you will not be disappointed. Look to Me, dear one,
and fret not, for I am the solution to all that you seek, and I am 
here for you. Watch and see how I will show Myself mighty on your 
behalf.

* Psalm 91:7
