As I write down the messages I feel God impressing on my heart for His people, I will share them with you here. -Nancy

February - Holy, Holy, Holy is the God Almighty. Great in majesty and honor. Worship him now and always. Don't turn to the left or to the right, but follow closely after him. Now is the time to fall on your knees before him. He waits for you. He wants to speak into your life.
So come now and worship me. Uphold my name; the name above all names. Dig deep into your heart. What do you see? Do you see me? Are you filled up with my love, my compassion, my mercy? Do you walk my walk and talk my talk? Have I not said come up higher with me? See who I am; the one who sends his blessings upon you, the one who sees all things and knows all things. Have I not created the universe; all you can see - whether you look up or you look down, whether you turn to the left or you turn to the right, my handiwork is there. Have I pleased you? Do you like the beauty in the nature that surrounds you? Do you like how I have clothed the flowers in their many colors? Do you contemplate the majesty of the mountains, the smooth reflection of the lakes and the mighty roar of the sea. What do you see? Do you see the greatness and awesomeness of their creator; of their maker?
Or do you complain and whine as my children did in the desert so many years ago, when I desired to bring them out of captivity and establish them in their promised land filled with my many blessings? Do small inconveniences stifle the joy of the life I have offered you? Are you lax and uncaring about the troubles of today? Or do you press forward through the challenges to a better tomorrow? Let me see your heart. Let me check its heartbeat. Is it for me or another? Where do I stand in the scheme of things in your private world? Am I not the God that created you in my image? Have I not given you dominion to take my kingdom into all the earth? Do you remember the words - on earth as it is in heaven? I have set before you life or death. Which do you choose?
Why am I asking so many questions of you? Are not the world's hearts constantly sending up their questions to me, thinking I must control everything that happens in their life or on this earth? But from the beginning I have given you dominion. I have made you in my image and given you a mind that can create. I have given you authority by my son's name, to go into all the world taking my word, healing the sick and casting out demons. Is this what I find those who say they love me doing?
Take time to sit with me that I may speak to your heart, for I am not distant. I love my people so. Do you know the love I have for you? Do you feel my love that floods my heart for you? Rest now. Take time for joy. Take time for pleasure. In joy and pleasure, find meaning in your work and find hope for the future. For this I say, "In me, your life is complete."

Come to me now. For now is the time. The time has come. All must know my name. For I come as your reigning king. Rejoice. Now is the time to rejoice. Listen to my words: words of sorrow, words of joy. Walk with me. Sing to me. Dance for me.
My time to come is soon. Be ready. Prepare now before it is too late. Worship me with your whole heart for I am your creator. See me as I am: full of love for you, full of joy for my son's return is soon, full of sorrow for all is not well. Many have turned their backs on me. They say he is not coming back. But here I am, about to return. What will I find them doing when I return? Will they be serving me or another? Let the world know I'm coming back because I love my people. The time is now. No more slacking. No more dragging of the feet. Look up, for I am coming soon.
Come now and rest in me. I am your rest. My world has gone topsy-turvy. It is filled with crime and hatred. Where is my love? Where is my mercy? Where is my compassion? Who will I find doing my will when I return. Hear me, Oh my people. My heart cries to your heart. Follow after me. See me as the God who loves you. Therefore, I say to you, love others. Is that not my way? Have I not loved you with an everlasting love? Drink in of my love. Let it surround you and fill you.

“Where are my people without spot or wrinkle? I am coming for a people without spot or wrinkle.” I said, “But Lord, aren’t we covered with the righteousness of Jesus?” He answered, “My people take lightly what my son has done for them. It is not all fun and games. It is serious business. My son suffered for them, do they even care? My son died for them, do they even care? It is true, my son is the catalyst for the forgiveness of sin, but my people take it so lightly.
Where is their heart” Where is their appreciation? Where is their thankfulness for what he has done for them? They run to sin. They play with sin. It is a mockery. It makes what my son did of no affect. They wallow in their sin with no regrets, with no repentance. They ask for no forgiveness and continue in their way. Have I not taught them my way? Have I not offered them a life of abundance filled with my love and acceptance? Where do I find my people, but hidden in the dark doing their own thing.
Come to me my people. Receive my gift of forgiveness for your sins. Then turn from those sins and follow after me with purity of heart, filled with my Holy Spirit to help you, comfort you and strengthen you. Let my love fill your life. Reign in victory. Conquer sin and put it behind you. Live in freedom. Yes, freedom from sin. It may seem pleasurable for a season, but it brings heartache and death in the long run. My way brings life; newness of life, eternal life. I long for you to experience this new life. I yearn for my people to know my love and walk it out in their own lives.
Oh, my people. See me as the God that loves you so. I’m coming back for a people without spot or winkle. When you accept my love, you walk in love towards others. My love flows through my son to you and from you to others. My love is never ending.”

Now is the time to see. Now is the time to hear. Now is the time to call upon me. I will answer for I see and I hear the heart of all my people. Some slip into ways of old, but I didn't ordain it to be so. Live with me. Live for me. It is a new life. A life of freedom from sin, from hate and all things evil. Lay down your will and pick up my staff and I will lead you. I will guide you. Love is the centerpiece. Let love grow and expand until it encompasses all the world. Seek me and you will find me.
