Time to Get Off the Merry-Go-Round and Run!
I have been seeing a merry-go-round all morning and God’s Sons and Daughters on it.
It starts out slow and goes faster and faster. It gets so fast that the people can’t hold on any longer and they are thrown off and as soon as their feet hit the ground they take off running.
I hear The Spirit of God saying, “It is time for you to get off of the merry-go-round!
It is time you hit the ground running!
You have been trying to figure things out and some have tried to rationalize things and yes, even over think things.
You have tried to do it your way. I want you to just let go and trust Me and run your race with Me.
Don’t plan your way, follow My way. Many have even been in turmoil trying to figure things out, I say to you, ‘Be still and know I AM God’ — My ways are easy and My burden is light!
Trust Me, I won’t let you miss it or miss the path and journey I have for you.
It isn’t about striving, it isn’t about you figuring it out, it is about trust.
It is as simple as, ‘This is My way, walk in it.’
I will light your path. When it is time for something, you will know it.
I will lead you and guide you. You won’t miss it. Don’t go ahead of Me and My timing.
Rest, be still and trust. I have never failed you and I won’t ever fail you.
I know what is best for you and I have already been in your future and I will take you there.
Wherever you are right now, TRUST ME.
When you try to do it and make things happen, you get in My way.
It isn’t about striving, working, making things happen on your own, or forcing things, it is about Trust and relying and leaning on Me.
I’ve got this. I can be trusted.
I AM your Father, your Daddy, your provider, your strength, your way and your ALL IN ALL.
I can be trusted. Lean on Me, I’ve got this. I AM your now and your future!”
In this vision I am having, we are accelerated so fast on this merry-go-round we cannot hang on and we are thrown off, land on our feet and take off running into our future.
I mean so fast there is no time for us to react. We just are going. That is what God wants, that is trust.
We are responding to what God is doing and running with Him and it. He has us. He is our Waymaker.
He can be trusted. He does know what is best. We will get where He wants us to go; we just have to lean into Him and trust Him.
Rest, be still and know He is God. He’s got this. He has our future.
It is time to get off the merry-go-round, quit going around and around the same mountain, quit trying to do things our way and on our own and quit trying to make things happen and just trust Him and know He has our future planned and laid out for us and He will speak, “This is My way — walk in it!”

Amen. Praise the Lord. That is right, Jennifer. Now is the time for everyone to step out of that cycle and run toward their respective destinies. This is a truly vivid and amusing vision, but it is also quite profound. This vision reminds me of when my husband and I arrived in Oklahoma city around the end of April 2004. I rented a car at OK Airport and tried to find Extended Stay America in the northwest. We left the airport at 5 p.m. and arrived at 11 p.m due to Oklahoma’s unfamiliar road system. Additionally, I was an inexperienced driver. Of course, the accommodation wasn’t located in a spot visible from the road. In the end, we kept circling around Oklahoma City in all directions. The good thing is that thanks to that, I developed a sense of direction. My younger sister has a similar experience; she once took nearly eight hours to travel from Seoul to Pyeongtaek, a distance that usually takes an hour and a half. She said the navigation system made her go around in circles. But now I am grateful to know that such things are never coincidental and that we can overcome through prayer with the blood of Jesus and the fire of the Holy Spirit. We are experiencing obstacles disappearing as we enter the Holy of Holies through speaking in tongues and impromptu praise in tongues, and ride the flows of the rivers of living water. I bless you all to fight the good fight of faith well and be victorious. We pray united in spirit with you. Really thanks.
Haewon, amen . Thank you for sharing this . Incredible. Blessings to you. You are a blessing and your journeys and testimonies are a blessings . Thank you . Continued prayers for you .

Haewon, thank you
It must be one of the hardest thing to do, “Rest, be still and trust.”
I’m trying Lord.
Thank you Jennifer, blessings.
Jennifer, it can be . Keep your eyes and focus on Jesus not what is going on in and around you. Everything seems smaller then because He is so much bigger ! Blessings to you ! I know you can do it because He is with you always .
