“Continue to follow Me as your Sheppard, for I will always lead you in the ways you should go. You won’t be going in directions of danger, in areas of conflict and destruction, but toward green pastures, where you are protected by Me. Danger may be around you, but if you stay within My hedge of protection, and under the shelter of My canopy, you will be protected from the onslaught of attacks, by the principalities and powers of the air, which you will see, but still be safe; for I AM your stronghold, and a shelter in the time of storms.
Many will come looking for shelter, and you will say; ‘I know where there is safety from predators and dangers, and a shelter from the storm. I will have you meet the Sheppard that takes care of those who are His, and keeps his flock safe. He is a loving master, embracing the weak and heavy laden, the suffering, those who are overcome by the storm, and to those seeking refuge and find safety from the storms.
Others outside the fold, in the storms of life will see the safety I provide, and the hope given to My flock. Even when suffering occurs, there is hope in the refining process which brings spiritual maturity, bringing greater glory, joy and peace, knowing that it is only for a season, which will reap great eternal rewards. Even in death they look toward the joy of being in the presence of My glory, when pain is no more, but only love, joy and peace.
For those on the outside have no hope, only visions of gloom and dome. They see destruction, and death, lacking the security of knowing the consequences of their eternal destiny. Those who hear My voice and follow Me, are My sheep, and in Me they are secure now, and throughout eternity.”
