Baskets Of Blessings

By Lanna Perry

My precious and beautiful church, I adore you. I love you and I am shaping you more and more into what I have called you to be. I am continually calling out to you to seek Me, and to repent of ways that are not of Me, or allowing the enemy to pollute.

I have given each of you many blessings and revelations. I am continually lavishing upon My church, My love, My blessings and My revelations. Many have taken these blessings and revelations and stored them within baskets. Kept them within for themselves.

My church, I have called you to love and serve eachother as I love you. I have called each of you to serve one another and place others before yourselves. Do not get caught in the traps of serving yourselves. For many have turned within instead of looking out. Many have taken what I have given as a blessing for all of My body and taken it only as a blessing for themselves.

My church, I have called many of you as equippers and leaders, giving to you what is needed to serve and strengthen My body. I am calling each of you to take what I have given you, and bless others. Look at the body and the ways that you can bless another. My church is not a place where you serve yourselves. For I sent Jesus to earth, it was to serve others, and I am calling you My church to do the same.

Do not turn inward and store baskets of blessings for yourselves, but continue to share what you have been given freely. You will never be lacking as you continue to give out all that I am giving to you with the encouragement to release and share.

My church is a house of prayer. I am calling all within My church to rise up in their prayers. I am calling My church to a greater level of intercession. For I long to commune with all My children. I long to speak to all My children daily, but who will hear? Who will sacrifice all to come and listen to Me and seek Me at My throne? Not for personal gain, but to hear what My heart is?

Oh My church, how I adore you. How I long to build you up more and more into a Kingdom of Glory. My Kingdom. Listen to Me, My church, it is time for all to lay aside things that are not of Me. To lay aside things that are causing My church to become complacent in their intercession.

My church is a place of unity. I see so much disunity within My body and it's time to remedy this My church. Not through your own strengths and efforts, but by the empowerment of My Spirit.

My church, as you give out of the baskets of blessings you have stored, and rise up in intercession for others and the world, My cloud of Glory will rest upon your meeting places and lives in greater ways than you have ever dreamed.

Your intercession, humility, love and service will usher in My presence in ways you've never dreamed. My church, will you heed My call? Will you listen to what the Spirit is saying?

For truly as you repent of any selfishness, pride and complacency I will move in your midst in ways you have only ever dreamed of. Many of you are crying out in the wilderness for My Glory to be ushered in, and to each of you, I say I am well pleased, and through your faithful intercession, I will move mightly.
