The will of (religious) men or the will of God? How can you tell which it is you
seek? How you hold and watch over your desires will reveal what is true. Do you hold your desires close to your heart? How do you know? Unless you crucify – your desires, they will remain to be your desires. They are earthly and sensual. All that you desire, love, and aspire – will not go further than beyond yourself and the earth if you do not release them to Me. Men of God and women of God have worked in their ministries all their lives not realizing that they did not have My desires at all in their hearts, but their own. You cannot have what is Mine unless you give it up first. Abraham demonstrated this. Unless you are willing to lose it you cannot be trusted with it – in My Kingdom. This is how so many who have been given – from Me, the passion and desire for a particular ministry when they do not hold on to the ministry with open hands, but clench it tightly – it remains their desire and never becomes My desire in them. You must understand that if you desire to live in Me you must be willing to give up, anything I ask for. This is how I know that I may entrust My desires in you. And My Spirit will flow and prove what is Mine and alive in you. How many carry around dead works because they become fearful and greedy in what they have? All that anyone has does it not come from Me? Look at the wicked servant who buried his talent into the ground! I do not take delight in this but am filled with fury for it. What do you have? Do you have only a little bit of oil in a jar? You must be willing to give it all away to Me so you may have My abundance. Like the widow, who was ready to die from starvation she gave her last to make Elijah a meal – and so she was given much more by the Hand of God. Do not cling or hoard to what you have been given. That means also your children,
grandchildren, spouse, house, car, job – all these do not keep them gripped in
your hand but release them to Me. Your ministry will never come to be in
My power and will unless you understand that to receive from Me you must first
give up, all to Me. Where you fear – even today, indicates you horde
something. Take a closer look to see what it is you must release to Me,
to give away. To the one who understands My economy, will be one who can prosper and contain the desire of God in their heart. When you contain My desire there is nothing that can interfere as you set out to achieve it. Remember: I give generously and without measure to all who are willing to surrender all to Me. Hold
nothing tightly in your hands. But everything you have with an open hand
unto the Lord.
