Climb Higher

I

am your strong tower. Run to me in the hard times and run to me in the good times. Climb up higher and remain there. I am your stairway to heavenly places. Climb ever so high and higher until you reach my embracing love for you—it’s fullness for you. Keep reaching, keep climbing. There’s so much more to experience; to see. The heights are never-ending. New levels of experiences with me are available for seeking hearts. My presence takes you to deeper places and higher altitudes above all the worldly cares. You will not be distracted when you’re alone with me. I have so much to show you, so much to reveal to you, so much to share with you from your book, written in heaven, long ago. Come and see the treasures written in your book. They contain good plans—a future filled with hope.

The name of the Lord is a strong tower: the righteous shall run into it, and be raised up.—Proverbs‬ ‭18‬:‭10‬ ‭JUB‬‬

For I know the plans that I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans for prosperity and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. —Jeremiah‬ ‭29‬:‭11‬ ‭NASB

You saw who you created me to be before I became me! Before I’d ever seen the light of day, the number of days you planned for me were already recorded in your book.—Psalms‬ ‭139‬:‭16‬ ‭TPT‬‬

Y

o soy tu torre fuerte. Corre hacia mí en los tiempos difíciles y corre hacia mí en los buenos tiempos. Sube más alto y permanece allí. Soy tu escalera a los lugares celestiales. Sube cada vez más alto hasta que alcances mi amor envolvente por ti: es plenitud para ti. Sigue alcanzando, sigue subiendo. Hay mucho más que experimentar; para ver. Las alturas no tienen fin. Nuevos niveles de experiencias conmigo están disponibles para corazones que buscan. Mi presencia te lleva a lugares más profundos y a mayores altitudes, por encima de todas las preocupaciones mundanas. No te distraerás cuando estés a solas conmigo. Tengo mucho que mostrarte, mucho que revelarte, mucho que compartir contigo de tu libro, escrito en el cielo, hace mucho tiempo. Ven a ver los tesoros escritos en tu libro. Contienen buenos planes: un futuro lleno de esperanza.

El nombre del Señor es una torre poderosa a la que acuden los justos en busca de protección.—Proverbios‬ ‭18‬:‭10‬ ‭DHH

Yo sé los planes que tengo para ustedes, planes para su bienestar y no para su mal, a fin de darles un futuro lleno de esperanza. Yo, el Señor, lo afirmo. —Jeremías‬ ‭29‬:‭11‬ ‭DHH

Tus ojos vieron mi cuerpo en formación; todo eso estaba escrito en tu libro. Habías señalado los días de mi vida cuando aún no existía ninguno de ellos.—Salmos‬ ‭139‬:‭16‬ ‭DHH

Deep is the Mystery of Intimacy

There is an endless cacophony of noise and voices entering our minds and hearts on a daily basis influencing us. Much of that is out of our control. But what if we deliberately chose to sit and hear from God himself.

My spirit has been yearning to enter into an even deeper intimacy with Jesus. I want to hear more of what His Spirit wants to share. But I know I’ll need to do some specific things for our relationship to flourish. It’s going to take time, focus and surrender. And I know I will have to sacrifice some things but what I expect to get in return will be worth the sacrifice.

When our spirit is silent and expectant our hearts are shaken to life. Sometimes I stretch forth my physical hands and sometimes I don’t. Sometimes I get on my knees and sometimes I don’t. Sometimes I pace around the room and sometimes I just stand still. It’s more a posture of the heart that God notices. He’s looking for someone that’s humbled in His presence, ready to listen and receive rather than quick to speak.

This intimacy is still such a mystery to me. And I believe it’s hard for some because it requires us to let go and trust.

But I truly believe the Spirit of God wants to whisper secrets from the heart of Jesus. On New Year’s Eve I received a gentle whisper that had my heart fluttering and my imagination dancing. It gave me a sneak peek of what we can expect from a deeper relationship with Jesus.

A Midnight Whisper from the Spirit

Wedding bells are ringing, wooing the bride of Christ.

At the midnight hour her heart is being prepared.

She will meet Him at dawn to begin a divine romance.

He will sweep her off her feet into the heavenlies.

Her first dance of true love with the Father will have the angels in awe.

The Son will then take His bride and show her His mansions.

Each day they will discover a hidden treasure together.

They will open new doors together;

enter into deeper rooms of revelations.

His heart will unlock rooms holding mysteries so deep,

her breath will be taken away.

There will be a library of books filled with words of love for His bride.

They will eat fruit baskets of grace and truth.

And He will take her to the throne room of mercy – a room of never-ending love and intimacy.

These are a couple of books I recommend that aided my intimacy journey with Jesus:

Secrets of the Secret Place by Bob Sorge

Desperately Deep by Lana Vawser
