When something needs to change in your life, I will not motivate you by fear or guilt. This is because the moment you received My gift of salvation, your guilt was taken away.
When I convict you, it is always specific. I will never tell you that you are a bad person. Instead, I will lead you to go somewhere or do something. I come alongside you, put My arm around your shoulders and point ahead, saying, “We’re headed over this way. Let’s take the first step together.” You will know where to go. And I will always go with you.
Something within you resonates and wants to go – is ready to go – even if it’s outside your comfort zone.
However, when you feel that guilty, obligatory, I‑really‑should kind of pressure that sits on you like a weight on your shoulders, that is not Me. For the law is no longer written on tablets of heavy stone but on your living heart (2 Corinthians 3:3).
When a desire or direction comes from Me, it grows like a pressure within your heart or gut, trying to be expressed. You have peace and assurance. That is Me wanting to express Myself through you. You don’t need to be afraid to follow. You can learn to live side by side with Me.
With love beyond measure,Jesus
