My beloved Child, let us have a heart-to-heart talk. I long to have this chat with you. Let us sit down now, meditate on these words of my Servant King David. Let us have a heart encounter (Psalm 61:1-4, NLT):
Verses 1-2: O God, listen to my cry! Hear my prayer!
From the ends of the earth, I cry to you for help when my heart is overwhelmed. I Am the God who always hears. I Am the God who is always here. I will never leave nor forsake you. I will never abandon you. Even when you feel far away – at the ends of the earth – I Am there. Yes, my Beloved, I hear your prayers, I hear your cries for help. I see when your heart is overwhelmed. And I am always ready to answer and to come to your aid. Why are you so desperate? Why do you doubt? Sit with me and let me uncover the roots of this to heal and free you. Unburden your heart to me. Just let it out. I can deal with it. I am not shocked by anything. Just be very honest and we can look at it together and find a solution. You will see that my solution is always surprisingly simple and easy. You just need to TRUST ME.
Verses 2-3: Lead me to the towering rock of safety, for you are my safe refuge, a fortress where my enemies cannot reach me.
My Beloved, I feel so honored by this your honest cry and request. I Am more than ready to lead and guide you. This is my heart’s delight. This is my steadfast and eternal offer to you. Come into my presence and be safe. I Am your Strong Tower. I Am your Safe Haven. I Am your Place of Refuge. I Am your Fortress. I Am totally reliable and dependable. Come to Me. Rest in Me and be safe. No-one can reach you, no-one can hurt you, no-one can harm you. You are totally safe when you are with me, when you trust Me and abide in Me.
Verse 4: Let me live forever in your sanctuary, safe beneath the shelter of your wings!
My Beloved, this is exactly my offer: You can stay living in my place of Holiness – there is no end and no limit to it. You will be sheltered under my wings forever – my protection will never run out. You do not have to earn it. It is for free. Please, do not hurry away. There is no better place than my presence. Do not try to find other spaces or relations for comfort and protection. It is I. Stay with Me and be safe in Me. Enveloped in my love you will be able to brave the fiercest storm and withstand the meanest enemy.
Activation: Sit still before the Lord. Speak your heart and listen to Him. You may want to journal. Write down the longings and desires of your heart. Write down His answers to your heart’s cries. Let His Heart speak to you.
