Suddenly this morning, I heard The LORD speak to me, “My Daughter, never look back — for it is time to go past your comfort zone of familiarity, and step into the New Day!

The Access Gates are open to your new Divine Connections — and I AM breathing into you a new fresh breath.

Never underestimate the power of Persistence! I AM producing in you a desire to distribute what I have produced in you.

Every exit is an entrance to someplace else, as you carry out My Purpose and Plan for your life.

Remember this one thing, going forward, you must pass on the Wisdom that I have given you — and others have passed on to you — as well regarding gratitude,” says The Father whose Mercy endures forever.

“Gratitude holds My People together — even when they are falling apart.

Gratitude seems impossible to many who are struggling in the midst of personal turmoil and distress — but that is the time when Gratitude’s Power is revealed.

I say, do not cry yourself to sleep in your personal trauma and failures.

Do not look back when you stumbled in the darkness, raged in deep anger or abandoned all Hope.

Never look back, and allow yourselves to drown in a sea of regret,” says The One who is HOPE.

“Never hurl your Faith across the room, because you cannot see the answer.

Gratitude is a force that is waiting patiently in line, to console your hurting heart.

Beloved, there is a landscape awaiting you that is larger than you can see.

Faith is the substance of things hoped for. Write it on the tablet of your heart today, you are My Representative in a lost and dying world.

You are My ‘Sent One’! You have been given authority to represent Me — as My Ambassador!” (John 20:21)

“So Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you; as the Father has sent Me, I also send you.” John 20:21 NASB

“Beloved, I AM clothing you in this serious time of change in the world, with Radical Prophetic Potential, to confront the challenges before you.

But the one thing that will halt your progress and destroy that potential — is continual looking back!

You cannot change yesterday — but each day holds an opportunity to embrace faith for tomorrow.

Looking in the rear view mirror often gives the enemy an opportunity to point out failure and mistakes that I have already forgotten and erased by My Blood,” says The Savior.

“I have called many as forerunners to look ahead and view My Promises with New Hope through the eyes of Faith — and with My Perspective for what lies ahead.

But when you are looking back at places where you were stuck, you will truly put a stop to pursuing what lies ahead.

You must move forward and stay in motion, without spinning your wheels, stuck in the past.

So, hear My Heart this day, as I have prepared a Table before you in the presence of your enemies, and I have enlarged thing in your life more than you ever dreamed possible in this hour of challenges.

I have been stretching you to be more effective, and strengthened your beyond your comfort zone, in order to release a new Wave of Revelation that will allow you to let go of beliefs that are no longer relevant for these end-times!”

“Brethren, I count not myself yet to have laid hold: but one thing I do, forgetting the things which are behind, and stretching forward to the things which are before. I press on toward the goal unto the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 3:13-14 ASV

“Therefore there is now no condemnation [no guilty verdict, no punishment] for those who are in Christ Jesus [who believe in Him as personal Lord and Savior].” Romans 8:1 AMP

“He will also go before Him in the spirit and power of Elijah, ‘to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children,’ and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just, to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.” Luke 1:17 NKJV

“Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.” Philippians 4:8 KJV

Truly, we can trust the next chapter, because we know The Author! Amen?

Always, remember, Faith looks forward, Faith is the substance of things hoped for, and Faith points back to the evidence of His Faithfulness of where He is taking us!

So, The LORD gave a Warning….

He said, “Don’t let what’s behind you make you miss what is before you!

What could have been rock bottom, beloved, has now become your stepping stone.

Do not trip over the many lessons you learned in the last season.

Let go of the ‘familiar spirit’ that is vying to keep you in the wilderness of yesterday, and take hold of My unchanging Hand that has led you out of the dry wilderness — to cross over the bridge — to a land of opportunity, with a heart of Gratitude and Generosity to finish well!” says The One who is Goodness and Mercy.

“Never let trauma and tension put the brakes on your transition into new territory.

Speak “Peace! Be still!” to your racing heart, when you do not yet have the understanding you desire.

Know that I AM filling you with Peace that passes all understanding — as only I can do,” says The One Who is Peace.

“God’s righteous people will pour themselves out for the poor, but the ungodly make no attempt to understand or help the needy. Arrogant critics love to pick fights.” Proverbs 29:7-8 TPT.

“But know that the pressure shall continue, but it shall also be a glorious time to reveal My Love and reveal My Heart to those who have been deceived and are hungry to know The Truth!” says The One who is The Way, The Truth, and The Life.

Let God arise — and every enemy be scattered!
