Remove Painful Weeds

I saw in the spirit a beautiful plant pot bursting with flowers and luscious greenery. It looked like a blessing. However the plants spread to the ground and became destructive weeds. What was a blessing in one season became a problem in another. 

“When you delay dealing with weeds,’ says the Spirit of the Lord, ‘they grow more persistent and more destructive. Now is the time to eradicate them! Sit with Me and consider where you have allowed things in your life to grow in ways that have later caused you pain? 

What was a blessing in your last season, that is not serving you in this one? What has been hurt or ignored, that needs to be cared for or rebuilt? I need you to be alert and wise. Partner with Me now to remove the weeds and tend to your boundaries. If allowed to grow up in the wrong place, any plant can be perceived as a weed. I am calling you into higher levels of discernment, to ensure the right plants are allowed to thrive. 

I am the gardener and you do not have to do this alone, but you do have to do it. If you deal with the weeds, other people will notice and ask you what is different. Point them to Me. This will embolden them to ask Me to help them to eradicate their own weeds.’ 

Romans 12:2 (NLT)  ‘Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.’
