BECmIG HE AsWE

JEsUs’ FIAL PAE I do not pray or these alone, but also or those who will believe in

Me through their word; that they all may be one, as You Father, are

in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world

may believe that You sent Me. And the glory which You gave me I

have given them, that they may be one just as We are one: I in them,and You in Me; that they may be made perect in one, and that the

world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You

have loved Me. Father, I desire that they also whom You gave Me

may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My glory which

You have given Me; or You loved Me beore the oundation o the

world O righteous Father! Te world has not know You, but I have

known You; and these have known that You sent Me. And I have

declared to them Your name, and will declare it, that the love with

which You loved Me may be in them, and I in them (Jh 17:20-26).

HA “sHAKE” PLACE

“Now, Lord, look on their threats, and grant to Your servants that with all boldness they may speak Your word, by stretching out Your

hand to heal, and that signs and wonders may be done through the

name o Your holy Servant Jesus.” And when they had prayed, h

plac wh hy w assmbld ogh was shakn; and they

were all lled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke the word o God

with boldness. Now the multitude o those who believed were o one

heart and one soul; neither did anyone say that any o the thingshe possessed was his own, but they had all things in common. And

with great power the apostles gave witness to the resurrection o

the Lord Jesus. And great grace was upon them all. Nor was there

anyone among them who lacked… (Ac 4:29-35).

So he came to a certain place and stayed there all night,

because the sun had set. And he took one o the stones o

that place and put it at his head, and he lay down in that

place to sleep. Ten he dreamed, and behold, a ladder was

set up on the earth, and its top reached to heaven, and therethe angels o God were ascending and descending on it. And

behold, the Lord stood above it and said: “I am the Lord God

o Abraham your ather and the God o Isaac; the land on

which you lie I will give to you and your descendants. Also

your descendants shall be as the dust o the earth; you shall

spread abroad to the west and the east, to the north and the

south; and in you and in your seed all the amilies o theearth shall be blessed. Behold, I am with you and will keep

you wherever you go, and will bring you back to this land;

or I will not leave you until I have done what I have spoken

to you.” Ten Jacob awoke rom his sleep and said, “Surely

the Lord is in this place, and I did not know it.” And he was

araid and said, “How awesome is this place! Tis is none

other than the house o God, and this is the gate o heaven!”

(Gi 28:11-17)

Ten Jacob was lef alone; and a Man wrestled with him

until the breaking o day. Now when He saw that He did not

prevail against him, He touched the socket o his hip; and thesocket o Jacob’s hip was out o joint as He wrestled with him.

And He said, “Let Me go, or the day breaks.” But he said, “I

will not let You go unless You bless me!” So He said to him,

“What is your name?” He said, “Jacob.” And He said, “Your

name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel; or you have

struggled with God and with men, and have prevailed.”

Ten Jacob asked, saying, “ell me Your name, I pray.” And He said, “Why is it that you ask about My name?” And He

blessed him there (Gi 32:24-29).

I bless you. I bless you with the Father not because I nec-

essarily know you or your God-given unique potential, but

because God knows you and loves you or who you are.

Nothing you can do can change His love or you. You are

approved, and He is well pleased. He loves you, He values

you, and He believes in you. Te Father cherishes the very dierences in your heart, the dierences that will come out

by the nature o Christ and multiply to the world all around

you. You have been created to be ruitul and multiply, and

all that you need is already within you by the Spirit o the

Lord. You are blessed by the Father, and I join Him in bless-

ing you to be exactly who you are and all that He has created

you to be. Tere is no one like you; and I praise God or that! I thank the Father or the dierent treasure and dreams He

has stored up within you that will bring Him glory, love, and
