I want to speak to you tonight, beloved about recompense. I want you to know that your God paid a debt that He did not owe on your behalf. Rejoice in this work. Rejoice in the benefits that this mighty work brings to you, My beloved.

In the beginning, I created the heavens and the earth. I formed man to fellowship with Me ‘ to walk in My divine love. Man faltered and fell. Man could not meet the requirements of a just God, so I paid the debt ‘ I made the plans to do all of this long before you were born. You were rightly Mine before you said ‘yes’ to Me, beloved, for I had purchased you with a dear price long before you knew Me. When you said ‘yes’ to Me, dear one, you then received the greatest of gifts. You received the wonders of your God in one solid package.

So think on these words today, beloved. Ponder and rejoice over these words. They are truth everlasting. They are for you. They will enable you to grow, as you ponder their truth, accepting all that the Beloved has done for you.

I ask nothing but that you accept this work ‘ this wonderful work, and follow Me ‘ follow Me being an expression of My goodness to others. I desire that you draw closer to Me day by day, learning My ways, accepting My truth. For in the days ahead, beloved, things are going to be a bit rocky for those who have not accepted the payment the Lord God Almighty made on their behalf ‘ things are going to get VERY rocky.

So hold fast to this truth, knowing that I provided a wonderful means for you to step into the wonder of My heart. I gave Myself in payment for man’s fall. I gave Myself entirely to the cause of mankind, and that is not something to take lightly, beloved. That is something to hold close to your heart.

You are My beloved. I hold you dear, you prized possession. I did an eternal work when I died for you. I did a work that will benefit you forever. So stand strong in this truth, realizing that the One Who is holy paid the price for you, and nothing can ever change that wonderful fact ‘ that wonderful truth.

I do take delight in you, My chosen. I would do it again, if need be. But once was enough. Once was enough to open the portals of heaven and bless you mightily, offering you hope and everlasting peace of heart. Yes, once was enough.

So take this token of My wonderful love for you, knowing that I delight in you and want to move you further in My truth, further into My display of love for you, further into your rightful inheritance. For you see, dear one, the price that I paid for your freedom in Me covers much ‘ much more than you could ever imagine ‘ much more than you could ever ask or think. That is the true recompense of My love, beloved. That is the true recompense of your Savior’s love ‘ more than you could ever ask or think.
