Simple Preservation Trumps Self Preservation
Simple Preservation Trumps Self Preservation

I have been hearing The LORD speak to me for days now, “Dear one, Peace I leave with you; My Peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you.
Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful.” (John 14:27)
“I have spoken to you in My Word.” says The LORD, “to let My Mind be in you. So I caution you today, do not allow the chattering voices of worry about the future or stressing over the past things you cannot change to drown out My Voice as I speak gently and softly to fill you with My Peace.
These worldly voices and mindsets are robbing My People of Peace and Simplicity that only comes when you live simply in My Desire for you to embrace every moment and treasure every opportunity to walk in My Love and Forgiveness, living one day at a time in My Grace and Mercy,” exhorts the comforter of all.
“Mind clutter brings confusion and makes clear decisions difficult, so know that I have given you a sound mind to make sound choices free of double mindedness and despair.
I AM not the author of hopelessness, but I AM the HOPE in you. I have called you to be a Faith Walker who is always taking My Hand as I lead you to the place already prepared for you.
Let My Guidance be a guiding light that beckons you with. “This is the way, walk ye in it” (Isaiah 30:21) and as you do you shall be filled with the Peace that passes all understanding.
“So as you are engulfed in a world full of chaos and confusion, keep it simple, live in the moment with a single eye that is full of light and free of distractions,” says The Light of the World who stepped down into the darkness.
“Even if the clock shows “past midnight” regarding your Purpose, your Relationships or your Marriage. Don’t give up on your dream of experiencing a happy ending.”
I hear The LORD saying to those who are focusing on how LATE it is, instead of how GREAT HE is, “Fix your FOCUS on My Plan and set your heart on My Heart alone, for I AM the heart changer who alone has set you apart and called you to be positioned as an agent of change.
Know that I alone am your game changer and I AM setting your feet on the right path — but you must cooperate with a willing heart to step up and take rapid steps of Faith.
I AM just in all My Ways and your Faith and My Justice are joining hands to bring peace on earth and replace evil with My Goodness,” says the Creator of all.
“I AM calling forth My Change Agents in this time of Kingdom building. I AM saying, Let this change begin in you. Set the pace for this race in time. Set the example for those who come behind you.
Your actions will resound through history as those who stopped the enemy in his tracks and stopped the continuous blasts from the past that was paralyzing you in fear to move forward,” says The God of all.
“All will see that you have awakened and accepted My Time Clock and heard the alarm. Soon your alarm shall ring with the sound of Acceleration and Acquisition, for I AM the Author and Finisher of your Faith,” says The Father.
“Never forget, I AM the Promise Keeper and I AM the one who gives happy endings. I AM the ultimate matchmaker and I AM sending My Kingdom Builders out two by two.
This is the midnight hour and multitudes will stand in awe of Me as they watch My Hand turn every so called ‘failure’ into good.
I speak directly to your heart today, that you must guard your heart and allow me to cleanse your heart of all hopelessness.
It is urgent that you speak in agreement with My Word and stop allowing the enemy’s playback recordings to remind you of every missed opportunity.
Yesterday is gone and The Redeemer has come to Redeem, Restrain, Renew, and Restore all that has been lost, that you may arise and shine and all may see The Glory of your LORD and Savior through you,” says The LORD of Glory.
“You see yourself coming from behind, but this moment has not taken me by surprise, for I have been there all the time, pulling you forward, cheering for you as you learn what it means to let go and trust with your whole heart,” says The Heart Changer.
“You must pause and wrap your heart around this one truth. “Beloved, your times are in My Hands. I can make time stand still because I AM The Time Keeper.”
Beloved, It is time to fix your eyes on your Anchor. The Anchor holds. FAITH is your assurance of things hoped for. I AM Christ is you, the hope of Glory. I AM the HOPE that dwells in you,” says The LORD.
“Furthermore, I would like to remind you that Transformation is a process and you are a work in process, about to be changed and transformed to be more like Me,” says The LORD who is the One and Only Creator and Change Maker.
“For some, it has taken much Grace for you to lose your grip on yourself and allow this longing that I have, to see you reach your full potential and be a total Covenant Keeper and reflection of My Glory,” says The LORD.
“There shall be waves of Glory as you move forward into this redemptive time to recover all. Many are labeling this time a crossover, but I say to you: We have crossed over many trouble waters together and it is the now time for you to carry The Message of The Cross to the multitudes, that they too, make receive My Love to be the bridge of their crossover, from death to life,” says The LORD.
I leave you with these Scriptures as reminders to keep it simple and keep listening with a humble, guarded heart as you carry His Heart with The Fear of The LORD.
May we cry out, daily — Keep me simple and preserve me for I desire Wisdom and help me to walk in The Fear of The LORD all the days of my life.
“The LORD preserves the simple; when I was brought low, he saved me.” Psalm 116:6.
“For God is not a God of confusion, but of peace.” 1 Corinthians 14:33.
“Jesus answered him, “If anyone loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.”” John 14:23.
“The law of The LORD is perfect, reviving the soul; the testimony of The LORD is sure, making wise the simple.” Psalm 19:7.
“But godliness with contentment is great gain, for we brought nothing into the world, and we cannot take anything out of the world.” 1 Timothy 6:6-7.
“And he said to him, “You shall love The LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.”“ Matthew 22:37.
“He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does The LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?” Micah 6:8.
“O Lord, my heart is not lifted up; my eyes are not raised too high; I do not occupy myself with things too great and too marvelous for me. But I have calmed and quieted my soul, like a weaned child with its mother; like a weaned child is my soul within me.” Psalm 131:1-2.
“But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.” Matthew 6:30-33.

Hi Sandi:
I love this line: “Live simply in My Desire for you to embrace every moment and treasure every opportunity to walk in My Love and Forgiveness, living one day at a time in My Grace and Mercy.”
I choose to live simply, embrace every moment, treasure every opportunity, walk in Love and Forgiveness, and live one day at a time in His Grace and Mercy.
Such wonderful words the Lord chooses you to convey to us.
YES, dear Robert, The Lord has been speaking to me so much in the last few weeks to “Always be where you are”. We tend to always be looking at tomorrow and not drinking deeply from the present moment. I heard Mike Murdock long ago say, ‘Stop hurrying through the garden of life’. The Lord is always seeing something in others and where you are in the moment that you have not discerned or expected. There is always a reason for the season and a purpose for every encounter for you and for them. Thank you for your kind words, my friend, I so want to hold the pen and share what HE shares with me. And to tell you the truth, we tend to think what HE is saying is for right now and it sometimes is but much of this word was given to me some time ago and the topic is simply an on going part of our life, especially the self preservation In His Everlasting Love, Sandi
When the LORD said “Let this change begin in you” it is so true it has to start in us before we can go into the world for His Kingdom purposes. The LORD asked me the other day He said if today was your last day on this earth what would you do? I said I would spend every second with you and then I paused and said “I get it!” He has to be at the fore-front of everything in our lives. Hugs Pamie
Good evening, my friend, Pamie. Yes, Change is always right at hand when HE is changing our hearts to be like Him, right? He is always drawing us to smell the roses of His presence one day at a time. Nobody is going to stay the same as they are today when God is doing something that we cannot see in us or in others. Blessings and prayers, my sister. In His Everlasting Love, Sandi
Yes and Amen, Sister. The Gospel message is simple but profound. Men complicate it, bastardize it, and imitate it as the evil one attempts to manipulate the Truth. With Jesus as our example, we must use the Word to combat these lies. We must immerse ourselves in it, memorize it, and make it a part of our everyday lives. Thank you for your guidance and encouragement. Blessings.
Glory to God, my brother Cliff. I am grateful always for your powerful agreement. I love your description of how men complicate and the enemy attempts to manipulate the TRUTH. SO SO TRUE! Well said. Immerse and drown ourselves in it until we are filled completely with the whole truth!!! It becomes who we are and what others see. I am so blessed that your were encouraged and received His guidance to move forward as His disciple. Many blessings to you, son of the most high, In His Everlasting Love, Sandi
Father, “Keep me simple and preserve me for I desire Wisdom and help me to walk in The Fear of The LORD all the days of my life.”
Amen!
Father, I love You. Without you, all things are void of love and life. Out of you, we don’t find mercy and wisdom.
If we didn’t see you, we are in completeness darkness. My desire, and our desire (my will is your will), is that all may see (knows) your light, and be full of your true love, fulfilled with your pure light. That all know you in truth, that simple truth: you are might (Almighty), faithful, righteous, good, and merciful; full of mercy for all that are humble and live on your word.
Your Word is good, full of love and wisdom (full of you), and you gave freely for us on the cross (so that everyone could see).
Thank you for give us — to forgive us — Your Light; Christ in you, Christ in us.
Amen, and amen.
