YOU ARE MORE THAN AN OVERCOMER WHEN YOU WALK HIDDEN IN ME

Do you see the distance, how far you have come?
And some of you are not where you know that you need to be?
Some of you are standing looking high above you at this great vast mountain 
and realize that it took you years to get where you are now and you fear it 
is not where you are supposed to be.
You ask how am I going to get to where you are Lord?
How will I ever get there in time?
And I tell you yes ... time is short but do not fear... 
There is no fear if you keep your eyes and your hearts RESTING on ME. 
I AM your PEACE
I AM YOUR REST
I AM your FULL ASSURANCE
I AM EVERYTHING you need!!!
Be settled in your hearts if you are looking to me alone for thy SALVATION.
Did I not tell you that if you were going in the wrong direction that you 
would here a voice saying this is THE WAY walk ye in it?
I AM THE WAY and I say WALK IN ME!!!
I AM THE GARMENT you are to wear.
I AM YOUR RIGHTEOUSNESS
I AM YOUR STRENGTH
Oh MY Children why do you strive so? 
Why is it so hard for you to receive?
The ONLY WAY you can be HOLY AS I AM HOLY 
is if you CLOTHE yourselves IN ME!

This mountain that is before you...
that separates you and I is but a journey.
All you have gone through ... all that you will go through before we are 
finally together has been used for your good has it not?
Are you not more like ME?
Are you not more refined?
ONLY I can get you to where you need to be on time.
Do you TRUST ME? 
If you do the road will be a much easier journey for you.
Why worry about tomorrow?
Does not this day have enough for you to handle?
I will see you through...
I will COMFORT you...
I AM your PEACE
I AM YOUR REST
I AM your FULL ASSURANCE
I AM EVERYTHING you need!!!
See thou this mountain in front of you?
It is only there temporally. 
Did I not say that if your FAITH were as small as a mustard seed that you 
could more mountains?
The SEED ....
LIFE IS IN THE SEED!!!
What is the SEED?
THE WORD OF GOD!
WHAT AND WHO IS THE WORD OF GOD?
I AM
I AM IN EVERY MOMENT, EVERYTHING YOU WILL EVER NEED!
The SEED must fall to the ground before there can be LIFE
There must be a death before there can be a RESURRECTION.
Lay your lives down TRUST IN ME ALONE
so that I may more on your behalf.
My STRENGTH is made PERFECT in your weakness.
When you lay your life down as a LIVING SACRIFICE
It is a SWEET SACRIFICE unto ME
Your Worship brings ME JOY
MY JOY brings you NEW STRENGTH.
As you WAIT ON ME by SERVING those around you
by laying down your life for them,
I AM growing in and you are being TRANSFORMED.
WE TWO TOGETHER are becoming
ONE NEW MAN 
METAMORPHOSED TRANSFORMED
FAITH TO FAITH
GLORY TO GLORY
Changed into MY IMAGE
A MANIFESTED SON.

Do you see the distance, how far you have come?
And some of you are not where you know that you need to be?
Some of you are standing looking high above you at this great vast mountain 
and realize that it took you years to get where you are now and you fear it 
is not where you are supposed to be.
You ask how am I going to get to where you are Lord?
How will I ever get there in time?
And I tell you yes ... time is short but do not fear ... there is no fear if 
you keep your eyes and your hearts RESTING on ME. 

I AM your PEACE
I AM YOUR REST
I AM your FULL ASSURANCE
I AM EVERYTHING you need!!!
I AM PERFECT LOVE and PERFECT LOVE cast out ALL fear.
So be settled in your hearts if you are looking to me alone for thy SALVATION.
I AM THE AUTHOR AND THE FINISHER OF YOUR FAITH
And I WILL move mountains for all those 
who put their FAITH and TRUST IN ME
EVEN UNTO DEATH
What can man do to you?
If you WALK IN THE SPIRIT
THEN YOU WALK IN MY LIGHT
I AM THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE
he that BELIEVES in ME though he were dead yet shall he live.
I tell you now that NOTHING can separate you from ME if you believe.
This mountain that is before you...
that separates you and I is but a journey.
So do not worry about tomorrow I will get you to where you need to be
right on time.
Just keep your eyes on ME 
and as you learn to walk remember
that you are not alone and
YOU ARE MORE THAN AN OVERCOMER WHEN YOU WALK HIDDEN IN ME

Resting in His Great Love,
