*Great is Thy faithfulness ... Thy mercies fail not ... Thy compassions are new every morning....You daily load us with benefits...Great, yes great; is Your faithfulness!*

What is faith?
Faith is believing, yes.
Faith is seeing, yes.
Faith is believing and seeing.
Seeing what? Believing what?
Faith is believing and seeing the unseen, the yet-to-come, the future, the result of prayers spoken in faithfulness.
Yes, faith is a work of unseen hands.
Faith is belief in change, in hope, in expectation, in anticipation, in trust ... trusting the One who is the completer of your faith.
Faith is action, as well as belief.
Faith is taking some action, as conducive to what was prayed and believed for.
Immediate action is best. especially concerning healing.
If one has been prayed for, in respect to a healing or a miracle, oftentimes the *action* is immediate, visible and dramatic.
These are the *easy-to-believe* spectacles ... demonstrations of faith.
These are the *crowd-pleasers* ... !
These are the *signs*... the *wonders*... the *spectacles*... the *shows of power*... the *glory*... the *anointing*.
These events -- these happenings -- are the things that draw in the crowds.
Many multitudes followed Me ... Messiah ... as I healed and I drew quite a following! It is to be expected.
(Spirit sigh)
*****
Many times My works, My powers, My ministry acts .... are cause of controversy. of debate, of jealousies unleashed, of power, and control trips by zealous leaders and performers.

Genuine faith does not need, does not require; a grand show.
I am not a carnival.
I am not a traveling medicine show, nor am I a circus.
I am not a concert, nor am I a magic act.
I am not an illusionist, nor am I an actor on a stage.
My will be done.
My will is My Father's will.
My will be done, as it IS in Heaven; as it is in My eternal Kingdom.
Show.
I will show you My ways, My methodry, My Ministry, My modes of wisdom, My secrets, My hidden wisdom , My dark knowledge, My glory, My glorious way(s)
....Yes.
-pause-
To whom much is given, much is to be expected!
Do not covet a gift, a ministry work ... if you are not generous in giving it ALL back!
As you give (of yourself, your wealth, your gifts, your servant-hood. ... it will be given back to you, albeit not in the form or shape as you may have expected!)
I desire a people who will follow Me at all costs ... at ANY cost .... ....this is where the adventures begin! ... My Holy adventures...!
For you see, I am not a dull 'god' ... {Spirit laugh} ... and I am not a 'dull boy' ... .
I am not a 'dull man' ... nor am I a 'dull God'.
No, I am quite the opposite.
I see danger, I see the edge, I see the future unfolding, I see the skies turning, I see mountains falling, I see clouds billowing into form, I see rain clouds LONG before they are near, I see genuine, child-like faith
... I see YOU.
Yes, I see you.
I see your struggles, your doubts, your weaknesses, your overt sins, your hateful rebellions(s), your rage against Me, your futile attempts, your failures, your successes, your lying down and your arising(s).
Yes, I am ever present.
-pause-
2:43am
Few understand Me.
They claim to "know" all about Me, but they are deceived!
They cannot know Me, for I am *past finding out*!
I am higher than the earth, for I am from above.
I am not as one of you.
I am from Above, you are from beneath.
I am of Heavenly nature, you (humans) are of mortal flesh.
You are but mud, dirt, sand. I give you life.
I. GIVE. YOU. LIFE.
Consider this: without Me, you would wither away and die.
I give you the very breath you inhale.
I provide the water to keep your bodies alive--
... I ultimately control the beating of your heart(s).
I am the Life-Giver.
I am Life.
*****
Give unto Me the honor due My name.
Call unto Me, and I will show your great and mighty things, which you know not.
I will make a way, where there seems to be *no way*.
I will make rivers in the desert ... for you.
I will provide, as needed.
I will show you My delights, My pleasures, My joys, My freedoms.
I am your Life.
I am your Breath.
I am your God.
I am the object of your faith, I hope.
I hope (that) I am also the object of your love.
I created you (all) to love Me ... you were made to love Me.
I want to walk among you as your Loving Savior ... walk and ~whoosh past~ you, as the Wind ... as a Loving Wind .... as a LOVING SPIRITUAL WIND.
*****
All it takes ... is a little faith. "
