While reviewing the journal entries of a fellow believer, the following resulted from
meditating upon his dialogue with God:
We are body, soul, and spirit (1 Thessalonians 5:23) . So many scriptural, spiritual, truths apply to our spirit.
When we are born again, it is our spirit that goes into a state of perfection. All the
fullness of God and His promises and His power are placed within us at that time.
Where the problems come in is that which resides in the spirit has to go through our soul,
Jesus, I need a word for Your people.
Ben, I have one. I have many.
My people, My dear, dear, children. How I long to take each and every one
of you under My protective wings. Do you not know how much I really love you?
Do you not know how important each one of you is to Me? Come,
spend time with Me! Arrange time to be with Me, for I have much to share with you.
Doing your own thing is not spending time with Me. Yes, tough times are coming
and I want My people to rely upon Me for everything!
Todd Engwall, a fellow spiritual traveler, submits his journals with
our Lord to me for verification. Recently, he asked our Lord to tell
him more about faith, after watching the movie, The Bible, where he saw
the faith of Abraham in action. Todd agreed to share this journal with
others, so here is what he received:
Lord, do you want to tell me more about faith?
Yes Todd. Faith is not hope. It is the substance of things hoped for.
I desire that My people spend time with Me so that I can shower My love gifts upon
each and every one. Doing their own thing is not spending time with Me! Do you not
know that tremendous events are to take place and I want My people walking close
to Me so that I can lead them through what is ahead. This is a wake-up call, not a
casual invitation! It is critical that My people draw close to Me. Leaning upon religious

Lord, do you want to tell me more about faith?
Blessed Holy Lord God, what is Your word for Your people today?
My word is My great love for each and everyone! My word is My
constant abiding and presence with each one, no matter the circumstances
of life! Remember, I never leave you nor forsake you, for I am always with you,
no matter what you do or say. Spend time with Me so that I can shower My
love gifts upon you. Be open to Me in everything, and I do mean everything!
Blessed Lord God, help me to see in all of the seemingly "bad" things happening around me as an opportunity to watch You do Your wondrous works of mercy, grace, and healing.
Ben, if all of My people would look at the events of life this way, I could accomplish more! Do My people not realize how big a roll they play in heavenly things taking place on planet earth? I want My people to anticipate My bringing healing and restoration into each and every one! Remember, anticipation is hope, which does produce results!
My people, though you may wander far from Me, know that I am always there to put My arms around you, to love on you, and to bless you. So easily do you get caught up in the affairs of life and forget that I am there with you to deal with each and every situation, need, desire. Know that I do allow things to happen to draw My people back to Me. No, this is not punishment. Rather, it is one of the ways that I use to bring My wayward children back to Me. Read the Scriptures. You see this pattern repeated over and over again.
Holy Lord God, our culture views adoption in different ways. One will say: "I have three children, one of them is adopted." Another, given the same condition will say: "I have three children", acknowledging all equally. Lord, we know we are adopted into Your family (Romans 8:15, Ephesians 1:5). How do You view adoption?
