The Lord says:
"In a time like this, stay rooted in Me and keep drinking from Me. Like a tree planted by the waters, which spreads out its roots by the river, you will not fear even when 'heat' comes, and you will not be anxious even when 'drought' comes. In a time like this, your leaf shall be green, and you will not cease yielding fruit!"People of God, even though many in the world may look at the future with doom and gloom, there is certainly hope for you who are the believers! As long as you stay rooted in Him and keep drinking from Him, you need not fear or be anxious, whatever happens in the world around you!
In John 7:37-39, Jesus said, "If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water." The 'rivers' here speaks of the Holy Spirit, and as you receive from the Holy Spirit, you can tap into His wisdom and His revelation that leads to life, healing and prosperity in all that you do!
Jeremiah 17:7-8 (NKJV) says, 'Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, and whose hope is the Lord. For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters, which spreads out its roots by the river, and will not fear when heat comes; but its leaf will be green, and will not be anxious in the year of drought, nor will cease from yielding fruit'.
You know what that means? Even in a time of 'economic heat' or 'economic drought' (i.e. recession, job cuts, shutdowns, etc) happening around you, you will not fear or be anxious, because your trust and hope is in the Lord!
You may be asking, "How to drink from the Holy Spirit?"
It is as simple as coming to Him with an open heart and receiving from Him! Pray in the spirit and sing in the spirit. Flow with Him and do not resist Him. Hear Him and lean not on your own understanding. As you receive, take heed of His instructions and act on what He says! The Holy Spirit may even bring to your remembrance certain Scripture verses that you've read before, and as you follow His prompting and leading, you'll begin to see the solution to that particular situation in your life!
Therefore, do not fear or be anxious, whatever the 'sticky' or 'tricky' situation you may be facing at the moment. Your answer is on the way! Your part is to keep spreading out your 'roots' to His living water, and keep hanging on to His promises (in the Word) for you! Because there'll never be a situation where He has no answer!
In this time of change, the Lord is releasing these words to you who are reading this:
"This is a time of greater opportunity coming your way! This is a time of grand opportunity coming your way! Bigger things are going to happen to you! Unprecedented things are going to happen to you - in a good way, not in a bad way! Your best is yet to come!"
Receive by faith!
In Jesus' name. Amen!
