I was blessed to start the new year in consecration to God. The first seven days of this year I shut into a church for a time of prayer, fasting and worship with the Lord. What an incredible experience it was. This was not the first time I have done this, in fact I started 2008 and 2005 the same way and I have done many shut-ins in the course of my walk with Christ, always seeking intimate time with Him.

This year was very different. While every time we seek to set aside intimate time with God He always shows up and blesses us with His presence, this time His manifested Glory actually came in and dwelt. In times past there was always a lot of spiritual warfare going forth. This time it was mostly praise and worship.

Saints, I believe we have entered into a place of rest in Him. We have been on the battlefield for so long and now He is saying rest in Me for I have given you the victory. No doubt there will be other battles, but I feel deep within my spirit that as long as we yield to God's directives in the midst of the battle, we will not experience the battle fatigue of the past. It is our time for sweat less victory.

I encourage you to rest in Him; change your mindset from what you must do to accomplish your objectives, and focus on His way and His timing for things to manifest. Remember it is not about you and your accomplishments, it is about God's manifested Glory in the midst of all you do.

Be Blessed and dwell in His presence!
