Today’s Reading:
Psalm 37
Psalm 18
Psalm 127
Psalm 90
Keep trusting in the Lord and do what is right in his eyes. Fix your heart on the promises of God, and you will dwell in the land, feasting on his faithfulness. Find your delight and true pleasure in Yahweh, and he will give you what you desire the most. Give God the right to direct your life, and as you trust him along the way, you’ll find he pulled it off perfectly!
Psalms 37:3-5 TPT
I heard the Spirit of the Living God say,
The gates of arrival have opened. I have brought you to a new place. Triumph is here. Provision is here. Prosperity is here. And the overcoming has already taken place. I have caused you to overcome by a way that looked dangerous and rickety, but this was the path I had for you that was overcoming and missing the many treacherous obstacles below. The heights looked scary to some. But to you it just seemed normal. Now that you have made it to the other side, now that you have landed to this new place, having overcome many obstacles, I have opened the gates of arrival to receive you here.
His love broke open the way, and he brought me into a beautiful, broad place. He rescued me—because his delight is in me! He rewarded me for doing what’s right and staying pure.
Psalms 18:19-20 TPT
This is an enviable location. This is a prime spot. The place you have landed, the place to which I have opened the gates of arrival for you is a protected place. But it is vast, wide, open and the possibilities for what you can build are endless here. To some it may not look like much. But I have given you eyes with great vision for what it can become. This place that I have put in your heart to build is a hub, is a central nervous system that will speak to many parts of the body. It will have reach into all parts of the body of Christ. Just you wait and see.
If God’s grace doesn’t help the builders, they will labor in vain to build a house. If God’s mercy doesn’t protect the city, all the sentries will circle it in vain.
Psalms 127:1 TPT
Grace is here to build. So build freely. Build ambitiously. I will back you up. This is a time to build uniquely you. It’s time to build your own way — by My Spirit’s guidance, but with your own fingerprints, your own way. I want this to look like Me, but I also want it to look like you. So don’t look to others. By My Spirit, build your own way.
How to Respond
- Rejoice, because the Lord has brought you from the place of overcoming to the place of building.
- Pray, Holy Spirit help me to adjust to this new reality. Help me to catch a fresh vision from Heaven on what I am called to build here. Help me readily dismiss the voices of those who would discourage me. I want to encourage myself in You and glean divine insight, wisdom and inspiration on how to build directly from You.
- Declare, We’ve been overwhelmed with grief; come now and overwhelm us with gladness. Replace our years of trouble with decades of delight. Let us see your miracles again, and let the rising generation see the glorious wonders you’re famous for. O Lord our God, let your sweet beauty rest upon us. Come work with us, and then our works will endure; you will give us success in all we do.
— Psalms 90:15-17 TPT - Decree, The Lord has moved me past a time and mode of overcoming. He has opened the arrival gates for me to a vast, wide-open spacious place for building. He has given me prime real estate and divine vision for what to build is already imprinted in my heart. I will not fall into the comparison trap. I will rejoice. I will sing. I will dance with all my might before the Lord. I will build with Him, by His Spirit all that He gives me vision to build.
