The Original Parent

Do you see it? The dancing flames of a log fire, a welcome waiting for you to rest in and warm up. 

The Lord says:

I am the original parent. I make provision for My children ahead of time. Before the winter is upon you, I get you the best winter coat and boots. When the evening is drawing in, I call you into the warm and cozy hearth, and feed you a nourishing meal.

In these days, many will experience hopelessness. Atmospheres may be bleak and heavy. But I know when you need to escape and receive nurture, when you need My comfort. When you need to be built up in My stronghold of hope.

Draw close to Me. Know Me. Trust Me now more than ever that I know what you need and listen to what I have to say. Don’t be like reckless youths who stay out in the cold beyond their parent’s call to come where it’s safe. Hear My call and come.  

I know the bigger picture. I am not an earthly parent, I am your Heavenly Father. I not only know your needs, I know the needs of My whole Church. I am gathering you all together to My stronghold. I have much to share with you, guidance to give you deep refreshment. Return to Me.
Zechariah 9:12 (NKJV)
Return to the stronghold, you prisoners of hope. Even today I declare that I will restore to you double.
