“There is none like the God of Jeshurun, Who rides the heavens to your help, And through the skies in His majesty. “The eternal God is a dwelling place, And underneath are the everlasting arms; And He drove out the enemy from before you, And said, ‘Destroy!’ “So Israel dwells in security, The fountain of Jacob secluded, In a land of grain and new wine; His heavens also drop down dew. Deuteronomy 33:26-28.
Today your LORD (יהוה) God (אלהים) says:
The sanctified life is a life lived in My everlasting arms. My left hand under your head and My right hand embracing you. You are encircled, encompassed about, provided for, protected, healed, and blessed.
A life lived with Me and in Me and through Me is Heaven on earth.
Gather together in My love and rest in My everlasting arms. Let Me uphold you, bless you, refresh you and protect you. I am the God of all comfort. I have given you everything and I will never leave you or forsake you. You are with Me always and all I have is yours.
Why do so many doubt My goodness and faithfulness? The answer is simple, they don’t know Me because they don’t know My Word and they do not do My Word but try to enter another way. But there is no other way.
Blessed be the LORD, who has given rest to His people Israel, according to all that He promised; not one word has failed of all His good promise, which He promised through Moses His servant. 1 Kings 8:56.
I tell you to enter into My rest. The Israelites that I came down to redeem by My outstretched arm from slavery in Egypt never entered My rest. Though they had seen My works, they did not know My ways. Though I took them in My arms and stooped to feed them, they did not know that I was their Healer. Hosea 11:3-4.
They did not know how to rest in My everlasting arms. Do you?
My Son told you to come to Him and He would give you rest. David sang about that: “The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want, He makes me lie down in green pastures, He leads me beside restful waters of peace, He restores My soul.” Psalm 23:1-3. And your soul is your mind, your will and your emotions—and they may be distressed, depressed and broken but My Son restores them if you will come to Him to give you rest.
My Son is the good Shepherd who gave His life for you. John 10:14-15. And He is still your Shepherd today. Revelation 7:17. Have you not read: “Now the God of peace, who brought up from the dead the great Shepherd of the sheep through the blood of the eternal covenant, even Jesus our Lord, equip you in every good thing to do His will, working in us that which is pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.” Hebrews 13:20-21.
I raised Him as your High Priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek but I also raised Him as your great Shepherd. He is with you always and He keeps My promises to you that I made through My prophet Ezekiel that I Myself would shepherd My flock and I would feed them and make them lie down. And that I would seek what was lost, bring back that which was driven away, bind up the broken, and give health and strength to the sick. Ezekiel 34:15-16. And that I would bring them to My holy mountain and shower them with blessings. Ezekiel 34:26. And My holy mountain where I dwell is Zion, the mountain of grace. Joel 3:17. Not Sinai, the mountain of the Law.
Do not worry and fret so. When you start to feel sickness or pain or you have an accident, do not go into fear and swear or cry out in anger. You have a healer. Rejoice and watch the miracle come to pass, for by His stripes you were healed. Take advantage of it by faith. If you are in Christ Jesus you have a supernatural advantage. You have One in you and with you who is the LORD your Healer. It is through resting in Him that you will see the victory.
And the same is true in every area of your life, whether it be provision, prosperity, health, healing, protection, direction, or wisdom and understanding. It is all there for you in My everlasting arms. The arms of My Salvation. Yeshuah. Jesus. With joy you shall draw water at the springs of Yeshuah. Isaiah 12. Come to Me and rest in Jesus. You shall dwell in My house forever.
The Israelites never entered My rest because they did not combine My promises with faith. It all comes down to that they doubted My goodness. They saw My power, but they never understood that I am love. They saw My power but they never understood My ways. My ways are grace and truth. Chesed ve emet. And while I gave the Law to Moses, grace and truth come to you in Jesus Christ. Heaven has reigned down the LORD your Righteousness, your Bread of Life, just as the manna fell from Heaven on the dewfall, so gently has your savior come to you.
And He is My arm by which I embrace you and meet your needs. My own arm brought salvation. Isaiah 59:16. To whom has the arm of the LORD been revealed? Isaiah 53:1. I redeem you from slavery by My outstretched arm. Exodus 6:6. And I have bared My arm before all the nations, stripped and beaten on the Cross bearing all your sins, ills, and pains, that all the ends of the earth may see My Yeshuah. Isaiah 52:10. Salvation. The Name of My Son.
He is My everlasting arms where you can rest and where all My promises, however many they may be, are “yes” to you in Him. And He carries the lambs in His bosom. Isaiah 40:11. Just as My beloved John rested on the heart of My Son at the Last Supper, so can you. He gives you all you need for life and godliness. He brings you all My magnificent and precious promises for He has fulfilled for you all the conditions you need to fulfill to be blessed. He has brought you under an open Heaven with Him. For just as at His baptism in the Jordan I opened the Heavens to Him, so also are they open to you in Him. In Him, you can rest in My unclouded favor and provision.
So do not worry about what you are to drink, eat or use for clothing. Do not worry so much each time you have a pain or get a bad report from the doctor. Instead run and take shelter in My everlasting arms and find rest. You will be blessed. Showers of blessing. And you will see all My good promises to you come to pass. It all comes by faith and patience as you rest in My everlasting arms.
I put My left hand under your head and embrace you with My right hand. Song of Songs 2:6. And in My left hand there are riches and honor and in My right hand there are length of days (healing, health and eternal life). Proverbs 3:16. I think you will like My embrace. Come to Me. Run to Me. Draw close to Me and I draw close to you. My Name is a strong tower that the righteous run to and are safe. I am your refuge and an ever present help in time of trouble. In fact at all times. I will never leave you or forsake you. Take courageous and do not fear, for I am with you.
So when you have a problem or just the day to day stress or cares, just come into My everlasting arms and let Me provide for all your needs according to My riches in glory in Christ Jesus. There is no other way to live, and I mean really live. This is the abundant life you good Shepherd came to give you.
I sent My Son to seek out and save the lost, to bring good news to the poor, to heal the blind, to make the lame walk, to cleanse the lepers, to raise the dead, to feed the multitudes, to give you the eternal Bread of Life, to embrace you, to bless you, and to bear all your sins, diseases, poverty, and pain in His own body so that in Him you could have everything wonderful.
That is why His Name is called Wonderful. Isaiah 9:5(6).
Always be headed home into My everlasting arms. Don’t struggle just snuggle. You draw close to Me, I draw close to you. Come closer!
I love you. And that is why I gave you Jesus, to be your Good Shepherd forever. Come let Him carry you in His bosom.
Like a shepherd He will tend His flock, In His arm He will gather the lambs and carry them in His bosom;He will gently lead the nursing ewes. Isaiah 40:11.
