Marla's Moments with the Master

I am well pleased with my daughter who battled the enemy from a position of victory last night again even feeling what felt to you, Child, as the worst you have ever experienced to that point. BUT My perspective is that it was only a gnat on the wall that needed to be tapped to defeat it! My ways are not your ways and my thoughts are not your thoughts. BUT just give me your swirled up, fearful, anxiety-filled thoughts and RECEIVE my faith-filled, peace-filled, joy-filled, hope-filled thoughts. It changes everything in that moment so you can face whatever the enemy throws at you as a warrior and not a worrier! You are strong and powerful in Me even when you feel like you are the gnat on the wall and the enemy is the fierce warrior! My TRUTH defeats the enemy and you can tap him and he's gone! He doesn't want My children to know this because when they do, his web of lies he weaves is completely destroyed.

Jesus, why did you wait to calm the waves when Peter got out of the boat to walk on the water? I wanted Peter to know how to keep coming to Me, keep doing what he is called to do even when the storms around him were huge. I wanted him to see that as long as he keeps his focus on Me and not on his circumstances, he won't sink into the storm and be swallowed up. And if you know the rest of his life after I ascended into heaven, you can see he wasn't afraid of the storm any longer. I wanted you to know, My Child, that the waves and winds of fear will never overtake you when your eyes are fixed on Me. Rise above the wind and waves and step out of the boat. You will never regret it. The boat is your human structure that is tossed and turned by every wind. My structure is to keep your eyes on me and no matter what is going on in the natural, it can't harm you. Don't let the mission be thwarted by fear and doubt. When I say, "Come," come even if fear seems bigger...

My child, I love you! I get excited when we are together. I love when you spend time with me. I created you to connect with me and to move with me. I love your passion for me. I have great plans for you. Come with me and we will go to wonderful places together. Do not be afraid of stepping out and moving with me. I will never leave you. I will never take you somewhere that is dangerous or not good for you. But remember that we do not always see things the same. My ways are not your ways. I see the big picture. That makes trust in me so important. You can trust me that even though something is hard for you to understand or deeply painful, it is not going to break you as long as you keep trusting and hanging on to me. I work all things out for good in your life and the lives of those around you. I am always good! I make all things new. Even though you walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I am there. Even if it feels like you are all alone, I am there. Trust me to take you to...

My child, I love you! I want you to know that there is nothing you can do to stop the love I have for you. Even before I created the world, I had you in mind. I delighted in creating every aspect of your personality and every part of your being. I created you to love. I created you to serve. I created you to enjoy life. I created you to be creative and design things. I gave you a purpose to fulfill. Even if your beginning seemed like an accident or a mishap, I designed you. It doesn't matter if your parents didn't love you or didn't meet your needs. I have always been there cheering you on, loving you, giving you confidence, helping you when you felt like no one was there. There is nothing that can change the way I see you. I see you as my beloved child. I see you as a prince or princess, royalty in My kingdom. Come to me and let my love for you penetrate your heart. I am waiting to embrace you and hold you. I love to spend time with you. I love to see you laugh. I love to ...

My child, I love you! Today is the day for new life! This is the season to celebrate life. I died so that you could have life and live it to the full. I arose from the dead to prove that I have the power to overcome death. There is new life all around you at this time of year. It is a reminder of what I did for you. I love you so much that I willingly suffered and died so that you could have new life. The same power that raised Me from the dead is alive in you when you accept Me as your Savior and Lord. That power is mighty power. It is able to tear down the strongholds that are standing in your way. It is able to bring you into all I have purposed for you. Dare to break through to become all that I designed for you. Don't let fear stand in the way! My perfect love casts out all fear. Fear is nothing compared to what I have in mind for you. My child, I love you! I did all of this for you because I cannot bear the idea of you not being with Me for all eternity! It also pains me grea...

My child, I love you! My desire is for you to have hope. I have good things in store for you. When you feel overwhelmed and discouraged, come to Me! I am very good at taking your cares on My shoulders and working all things out for your good. Come to Me! Do not despair. Do not be discouraged. Do not give up. I am with you always. I will never leave you. Whatever you are going through, I will work it out for your good and My glory as long as you give it to Me. You were not meant to carry those heavy burdens. You were made to give them to Me and walk with Me through them. Nothing is too hard for Me! As you submit everything to Me, stand back and watch how I move those mountains and cast them into the sea. I am faithful to do what I say I will do. All you have to do is let Me do it. Hope will not disappoint you when your hope is in Me! I made you unique and gave you a purpose and the gifts to fulfill that purpose. Nothing will keep you from the abundant life I died for as long as you let ...

Come to Me all who are weary and facing a heavy burden. I long for you to come and rest in Me. I long to hold you and comfort you when things don't go like you want them to go. I am waiting with open arms to embrace you when you have failed or made a mistake. I do not condemn you. I love you! Embrace all that I have created you to be. If you have made a mistake or a wrong choice, repent, turn around, and start again. Your past does not define you. Your mistakes do not define you. You are a child of a King. You are precious. You are fearfully and wonderfully made. You have a hope and a future! It is never too late to come to Me and allow me to wash away all the things that keep you from Me. I will brush it all off and give you a new beginning with a clean slate. Forget what is behind and embrace what is ahead. Embrace all that I did to give you a full life in Me with purpose and destiny. I love you! Come to Me and find rest for your soul!

My child, I love you! No one is like you. I created you unique and for a specific purpose. Don't worry if you feel you have messed things up. I don't waste anything in your life. I use failures and troubles to make you stronger. I turn your ashes into something beautiful as you submit them to Me. People tend to run away from Me when things go wrong or trials come. I want you to run to Me and let me walk with you through whatever you are facing. I will never leave you. I always have a way for you to go that will bring you to the place where you will love life again. I came to bring you life. The life I give you is the one you dream about. Sometimes you don't think My way is the way you want to go but when you surrender to Me, you will find that the life I have will bring you the most fulfillment. I use the gifts I put inside you to their fullest potential. The enemy brings death and destruction even if the beginning looks and feels exciting. The end is always darkness. Bring...

My child, I love you! A new year is coming. My nature is to bring new things all the time. A new year reminds you of new things and brings your thoughts a little closer to My thoughts. I make all things new! I do this every day. The new year helps you focus on the new. This new year (2014) is a year of new beginnings. Get ready for an upgrade. Get ready to be surprised with the good things I bring to you. I love surprising you. I love to see you open the new thing I brought and embrace it. Don't be anxious or afraid. Trust Me that what I bring will be the best for all involved. I take what is a disappointment or a trial to you and turn it into something good for you and for My kingdom. See, I am doing a new thing. Will you embrace it or will you turn away from it? If you embrace it, I will take you on a journey that will be more fulfilling than you could ever imagine. Are you ready? Let's go!

My child, I love you! Do not underestimate what you and I can do together. With my power in you--the power that raised me from the dead--you can do anything I call you to do. I want you to be YOU. Don't try to be someone else. I created you to do things as YOU, not the person you feel is more gifted or prettier or more charismatic than you. Those are lies from the enemy. I want you to use all of the gifts and talents I gave you to become all the I have planned for you. There is not one person I created who does not have any talents or gifts. Everyone is creative in their own special way. Dig deep inside who you are and find me there, working everything out for your good. Choose to believe that I love you and have a plan for you. Even if you are stuck now or facing hard things, I will use it all for my glory in your life and in the lives of those around you. Look up and see the hope that you have in me. I love you! I am waiting for you to step out and grab hold of all that I created...

My child, I love you. You may know this in your head but do you know it in your heart? Do you know how much I love you? Do you know it deep in the recesses of your heart? I paid a huge price so that you could experience the depths of my love every day of your life. I gave everything I had so that we could have a relationship. I want you to know that there is nothing you can do to lesson my love for you. I died for you when you were deep in sin before you even knew who I was; before you even existed. I did this because I have a plan and a purpose for you. I want you to become everything I designed you to be. I want you to know me in such a way that you will be confident of who I created you to be and will accomplish all that I have planned for you. I know that when you do what you were designed to do, you will find fulfillment and contentment and blessings like you could never accomplish when you try to do life without me. But even if you decide not to follow me or you fail miserably at...

The Master says, "My child, I love you! I am the Light of the world. I shine light into the darkness all around you. I shine brightest when the darkness is the darkest. Don't give up when things look dark. Don't believe the lie that I am not there. Look to me; focus on me and you will see light. You will see hope. You will know that I am with you always, especially in the times when you don't feel my presence. I never, ever leave you. Grab hold of that truth. I am working all things out for your good. Keep holding on. Keep trusting. Keep seeking. Keep knocking. The door will open and it will be better than you could ever even ask, think, or imagine. Stand firm. Open your eyes. I want to show you marvelous things. Some of these things you would never see unless you realize that without me you are nothing but with me you can do all things. I love you. I am working. Trust me to bring light into whatever you are going through. You will not believe how easily I bring everyt...

The Master says, "My child, I love you! I make all things new! Every morning is a new opportunity to enjoy my presence and enjoy who I created you to be. Step out boldly and embrace all I have for you this day. Don't hang back thinking you don't have what you need or are inadequate. I have given you everything you need for today. Every morning is a new day. Don't worry about what happened yesterday or what might happen tomorrow. TODAY is the day I have made! It is a clean slate if you let it. Let go of what happened in the past and let go of worry of what might happen in the future. Embrace today by asking me to forgive you for anything you might have done wrong yesterday. When you do that, I take your mistakes and turn them into something good. That's why my mercies are new every morning. I love to take your human failings and turn them into good. I work everything out for good in your life and in the lives of those around you as you submit it all to me and let me...
