THOUGHTS OF THE SPIRIT DURING THE RIVER

DESIRE...

The DESIRE that lives inside of the heart is the fuel that leads ME to the people and it leads them right into my arms as hunger increases and satisfaction can only be found as they eat MY WORDS OF LIFE...

DESIRE...

FEEL IT BURNING inside. DESIRE eats at MY SOUL as I long to touch the face of my beloved children.

Do you feel it???

DESIRE... aaaahhhh it ACHES because it is the groaning of GOD. IT BREATHES constantly and stops only when HE comes to exhale LIFE into your lungs...I bled

"I bled DESIRE in the GARDEN as I prayed... It was the night before I died... before I was crucified... It dripped from my head. Blood and water... the agony of my DESIRE."

Father, I bled... Jesus... I am bleeding right now. I bleed with DESIRE for your TOUCH. where are YOU?

DESIRE... It leads me into your healing, Jesus. DESIRE.

JOHN 17:24 "Father, I desire that those whom you have given ME would be with ME WHERE I AM... FATHER... I DESIRE..."

I DESIRE THAT WE WOULD BE WITH YOU WHERE YOU ARE TONIGHT, Jesus.

A hope deferred makes the heart sick... But a DESIRE fulfilled is a tree of life. Proverbs 13:12

Let the DESIRE of my eye be JESUS and let me be intertwined with the TREE of LIFE as it grows and bears fruit.

He chose to give us birth through the word of TRUTH, that we might be a kind of firstfruits of all He created. James 1:18

Desire... I could sing the word all night but instead I will write it.

His desire is for me... It pulls from heaven the things that I need and pours them over my head. DESIRE is the magnetic force that causes me to look for a GOD... the ONLY TRUE GOD can fulfill the DESIRE... can feed my hunger. DESIRE causes me to look down and to bow low like a needy beggar because I am aware that I am starving. HUNGER-

"Come to me all who are THIRSTY... all who are HUNGRY... all who are WEARY and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from me."

Wounds bleed because they are hungry for healing... They bleed because they DESIRE. Desire always bleeds. Are you bleeding? Then you have what you need to meet Jesus- You have a need.

I hear Him speaking...

"I have broken My own heart over the heads of my crying children. Grace pours out like a lava to burn the pieces of flesh that interfere with My presence in this place. Melt, melt away under My love. Melt, melt away under My hand. Die, die- every sorrow until my breath is felt over your raw skin. I have broken MY HEART so that YOURS could live. I have become scarred and wounded so that you could carry absolute beauty. Melt... melt away under MY GRACE."

I feel a frozen heart and it is melting tonight. Tears that have been frozen for years are emerging under the lava of His grace. MELT, MELT AWAY! Melt until all that remains is the story of His love. DESIRE His heart to break over your head. Desire pulls Him near.

Love aches. It always aches because it is a living, active source of dying to self so that IT may live. LOVE NEVER FAILS. Though it HURTS, it never fails.

When you feel HIS HEART BREAKING over your head, you will understand the meaning of BEAUTY as you feel your concerns for earthly pain vanish as HIS DESIRE IS FULFILLED-- HIS DESIRE is for YOU.

When LOVE CONQUERS it cascades through the aching and sends joy like winds through all of the cracks that emerged through the wrestling-- Love NEVER FAILS.

I hear Him SPEAKING....



"I love you."

He is still speaking-

"I long for them to BELIEVE Me."

To BELIEVE- to cling, to hold fast and to rely upon.



Luke 7:48-50 Then JESUS said to her, "Your sins are forgiven."

The other guests began to say among themselves, "Who is this who even forgives sins?"

Jesus said to the woman, "Your FAITH has saved you; go in peace."

WHO IS THIS WHO EVEN FORGIVES SINS?
