Child of Mine, I am drawing you in closer to Myself. I have been issuing invitation after invitation to you to press in. Draw close to Me. This is a time and a season where great supernatural forces at work in the lives of every believer. I am actively at work to draw you closer, but the enemy is also actively at work to push you away. Which one are you going to cooperate with?

I have ordained that this is a season of increased intimacy, where My own draw closer to Me. I want to breathe My life into you, I want to strengthen you and make you unshakable. I choose to do this from the place of intimacy, where My own come before Me, receive My love, wait on Me and worship Me. The more time you spend with Me, the more you will become like Me, the more you will be able to see what I am doing and do it with Me.

The enemy of your soul is doing what He can to prevent you from spending time with Me. He is using many things: business, fatigue, frustration, fear, discouragement. His desire is to isolate you from Me so that you won’t be refreshed, revived, strengthened and invigorated. He wants to wear you down and take you out. He knows that he cannot succeed in his strategy as long as you walk close to Me. That is why he is doing what he can to separate you.

This has been one of his strategies throughout the ages, but right now he is intensifying it; he is using it more and more. As a result, it has become easier and easier for My own to drift away from that place of abiding in Me. Right now, the devil is doing all he can to draw My own away from that close relationship and intimacy with Me. He is also whispering lies to you, trying to make Me seem unsafe. He condemns you for your seeming failures, and then tries to make you afraid to come to Me because of them.

I, on the other hand, am working more actively in the lives of each of My own. I want to draw you closer than you have walked before. I want to rework some of your preconceptions and misconceptions about what intimacy with Me looks like. I want to fine-tune your hearing, so that you can easily recognize even My faintest whisper. I want to rework the desires of your heart, so that you naturally begin to desire the same things I desire and despise the things that I hate. I want you to experience My love and My compassion and My acceptance over and over again — I want to saturate you in My presence. But I can’t do that if you don’t come to Me.

Dear one, don’t be afraid to draw near. Come close and press in. Seek Me, dear one, and you shall surely find Me. Right now I desire greatly to be ‘found’ of My own. I want to reveal more of Myself to you, I want to strengthen you and hold you and pour My love upon you. Dear one, this is the time and season of intimacy with your God. Do not run from it and do not be afraid to draw near. Do not allow anything to distract you from spending time with Me! Come close, dear one, and sit in My presence. Let Me breathe My life and My love upon you. Draw close to Me, dear one, and breathe in My life, for this is a season of intimacy.
