It is time, once again, for me to acknowledge all of the new readers that have recently requested to receive these Encouragements! Welcome! May The Lord richly bless you and yours! Thank you for your interest in the Encouragements . . . may they bless you on a daily basis, and help you to come up to higher levels of "Maturity and Intimacy" with our Lord Jesus Christ! I hope that you will go to the website, click on the Archive page, and at least read the "current" Encouragements that The Holy Spirit has given me for this month of May. I am just following "instructions" that I am hearing in my spirit. Obviously, The Lord wants to bless you in a very special way! Remember, I give God all the glory, honor, praise and credit for each and everyone of these Encouragements! I also thank Him for each and every one of you precious ones that take time to read them! Please feel free to share them with your friends and loved ones . . . you might want to print them out for those that don't have a computer. Anyway, that is our "great commission" . . . we are to "share" the GOOD NEWS of The Gospel with others. When The Lord "blesses" us with revelation knowledge of His Covenant promises, He does it so that we can "bless" others with it! PRAISE THE LORD! We must never become "reservoirs" of blessing . . . we are supposed to be "channels" of blessing! I am reminded, now, of the Dead Sea . . . the reason that it is called that, is because it does not have any "channels" going out from it! It "takes in" and gets full, but it doesn't "give out". Therefore, it just sits there and it's waters become "stale and stagnant"! However, when we keep our "out-reach channels" open . . . then we can have a "fresh" supply of living waters flowing in to our lives, and that is when we will see the fulfillment of the Covenant promise from Jesus that tells us . . . if we will believe in Jesus, and if we will trust Him and rely upon Him . . . THEN, out of our innermost beings will flow rivers of living water "continuously" (John 7:38, paraphrased from the Amplified Bible).
