And here’s Carolyn’s prayer featured at the end of the episode!
Hear Him say to you now: “My Beloved one, you are most precious to me. The places in your life where you feel the most fearful, the most regretful, the most shameful are where I want to shine my love, compassion and mercy on, and I will carry that for you so it will become the place where my glory shines through. I will take what the enemy has done to wound you and bring myself into that pain for you. If you consider acknowledging the pain others have inflicted, and give it to me, knowing I have come to carry this pain off of you to place it on myself, so you can learn to walk in my goodness and kindness. This is my desire for you. It is accomplished already for you and all you need to do is open your heart and receive my life into those places so you can be free.”
“Only a life lived in an expectation of my goodness can live in the chaos around you. I am devoted to empowering you for whatever you face, and I am with you. You can live above your circumstance when you focus on me. I desire you to wait on me and remain in peace in your circumstance. I will give you my perspectives on your next step. I have chosen you and desire to have intimacy with you. When you are vulnerable with Me, I make you inaccessible to the enemy. I bless you with the joy and anticipation of celebrating who I am for you in every circumstance knowing I am with you to bless you.
So dear ones, I desire your awareness of my life that is in you and your confidence in Me will overwhelm anything that can try to come against you. For there is nothing that can defeat my purposes for you.” –Jesus
