"Out of the Wilderness"

If you are experiencing some sort of "wilderness" season in your life, perhaps this Word I received on 6/23/07 would be for you. If this Word bears witness in your Spirit, then receive it with gladness and know that God is working FOR you.
For His Glory,
Joe

"I AM from everlasting to everlasting!

"Did I not know you before your birth? Was I not there at the moment of your conception? Had I not planted your destiny in you way back then? Have I not been with you every second of your life? Have I not even redeemed what you have called your "wasted years"?

"For I AM THE Redeemer. I take what is intended for evil and turn it to good. I AM from everlasting to everlasting!

"I have heard you cry out, 'But I have never been in a wilderness like this before!' Have you not heard that I will make the desert bloom? Did you not remember that I trade ashes for beauty? -- sorrow for Joy? -- mourning for dancing?

"For I have led you by My Spirit into this place, and though it may be a hard place and it may be difficult -- I AM here! I AM from everlasting to everlasting!

"Declare My works! Walk humbly before Me! Be at peace with all men! Show mercy! Speak truth! Shine justice!

"When I AM ready to SPRING you forth from your 'wilderness', you will see My purpose and know I AM from everlasting to everlasting!

"Strengthen yourself, cover your family with My glory, and sing in the night. Soon the path will be clear for I AM from everlasting to everlasting!"
