                          No Shadow

I am a God of justice; truth is inherent within Me.  I empower My people
to be who I have created them to be.  There is much misunderstanding of 
My heart and My intention among My own.  I hear many of My people ask Me 
"Why" in response to the circumstances they see and experience.
 
I have called you to serve Me as a kingdom of priests.  Yes, you are priests 
who have My vision and authority.  I have not called you to be servants to 
circumstances.  

So know Me.  Learn the love I have for you firsthand.  It is My wish to 
see My people walking in increasing maturity.  You are called to be 
battle-tempered warriors, lovers of My truth. You are called to walk as My 
sons and daughters.
 
Some of the tests you face have come from a lack of true vision, where you 
are led of the flesh and strongholds.  When someone wrongs you, call out 
to Me, for I am the God of justice.  It is I who will avenge, and it is I 
who will deliver divine blessing.  I am a God of restoration.  Turn from 
sin, turn from ways that are not Mine.  I am not vindictive; I am love.
 
Trust only in Me and believe in My ways, for I will bring deliverance from 
that which pollutes My people.  Allow My purity to cover you.  Stand 
restrained under My limits and you shall see liberty and restoration.  Call 
upon My name and change your ways so I can bring deliverance.  Allow Me to 
send forth justice.
 
In Me there is no shadow.
