An Invitation to Eavesdrop: paupers portion

Realizing I have been much like the Saints of Old lately...
Shocked as I realized... I've been begging for a pauper's portion.

The Hopeful's have been crying out for Ridgegate to sell for over a half a year now...
Sensing last night freedom came in an unusual package...

It has been on its way for quite sometime... I just didn't recognize it in full.

Pastor and I entered into agreement that it was time to stop being like the Israelites... like paupers... it was time to live like the royals we are...

It's time to stop asking and begging for what He already knows we need and want...
Instead we ask for hearts and eyes that desire HIS BEST... and praise HIM for being so good and worthy of our trust.

He desires to give more than the half opened...

He uses small invitations to draw out the hidden...

Mouth and heart ready to pour affection...Tender hands guiding me out of confined spaces...

GREAT REST has flooded my heart.

A new rest... one that I am unfamiliar with...
It's like I have traded in asking for a man-appointed King. A King that won't bring fulfillment. My desire is for HIM and for HIM alone.

It won't be easy... It won't always look pretty...

I will be tempted to return to what my soul has so faithfully cried out...
Thankful a lesser cry has been replaced by a greater one...
A cry of worship instead of worry.

If He is who He say's He is, then He is good and can be trusted. He knows our needs and desires better than we can articulate.
Just like it would be crazy for Elliott to ask over and over again for daily provisions... it is crazy for me to repeatedly ask for the move and the sale.

REJOICING in the Victory of seeing and believing...

REST... it is upon me.
Change of focus just having shifted, I already see MORE...
My spirit sees with new clarity.
I am standing on truth...

I may lose my balance... but...I am NOT backing down... my hands are holding fast to my wild, royal garments.

Even now I am made aware that I have seen more supernatural activity in Hope's House since it's been on the market than any other time in my life...

If He had immediately given what I had asked for, I would have missed the Prince's portion...
I would have missed the better. May it never be so...

So VERY thankful His ways are not my ways...

Today the light is different on Ridgegate.
The sun is shining with new expectation...
Recalling what I read as I drifted off to dream...
"God's timing is ALWAYS on time."

Yes and AMEN!

Not settling for Saul-Kings.
I have room for only one...
He is after my affection...
He won't relent until He has it all.

I have been asking the Father to bring release over the title of this house... now I pray the better.... release over the title of my heart!

You can have my ALL!

Still HOPING for the sale of our home...
More than ready to pack up the Hopeful's and embark on our journey towards Faith...
