You have heard correctly when I have spoken about your friends, and you have told them, "The Lord has not forgotten you." Indeed I have not. I have plans that are exciting beyond your ability to imagine, and I am putting things in place that are needed for a great move of My Spirit. Continue to encourage those I have put in your life, because the enemy would have you give up before you see the victory. The victory is already won, in the eternal sense, but the victory in each person's life depends on whether people listen to and heed My Voice, which they will not do if they have given up and surrendered to the enemy and his lies about hopelessness, weakness, failure, and the like. I make all things new, do I not? Then listen to My Voice, get more experienced at hearing Me and obeying Me, moving in the power of My Spirit, and you will see My eternal victory seep into your own life, and you will see the problems in your own personal experience yield to My power.
