My children, today I want you to humbly come into obedience with Me. You serve Me My children but where is your heart? It is not My desire that you should feel as a slave or a servant that is obeying only orders. It is My desire that you serve Me with your whole heart to see that you are My children and that I am teaching, leading, guiding you, instructing you as a Father would their children.

Many of you My children do not have the fear of Me as you should. You do not have the respect for Me as you ought. You do not look to Me as your Father, the creator, the king of kings and Lord of lords. You serve Me as a slave would serve their master, in hopes to gain freedom. But I ask you this: would a master give up his only Son to be persecuted and hung to a cross and bare all your sins, iniquities, infirmities, and darkness for you to be free? Would a master provide, give grace and favor, and give you all the things you need to keep your freedom? I want you to think about these things.

Yes I am the master of this universe. I am God. But I am your Father, adopted into son ship you are. I love you with an everlasting love. I give you a book to guide you through this life so that you can return to Me, My open arms, and receive all that is yours. I give you a comforter that is with you at all times all you have to do is ask. I give you angelic hosts to help fight the battles that you cannot see and to be able to have the strength, wisdom, and knowledge to fight the ones you can. I gave you My Son who paid the price for you freedom. I have gave you many promises and have always been right here with you at all times just waiting for you to reach out.

My children, I ask again where is your heart? Why do you not love Me with a love that you should have as a child to their Father? Why do you not look to Me to provide all and grumble and complain that things are not as they should be? I give you a place to come together and worship but many of you My children disrespect and disregard My house. I give you a shepard to lead you, but yet you do not come under their authority and be obedient to what I have asked them to do with you.

You have become children of complaining, pride, full of disrespect and disunity. You have become children who do not want the meat of My word but to have it pacified to you. You have become children of wants but not children of production.

My children, it is time to come before Me and humble your heart to Me. It is time to become children of gratitude, respect, joyful, loving, caring, and hungry for more of Me and to show others who I am and how to be My children. You should want to share Me and in all My truth. You should not be ashamed of Me and who you are in Me.

Today I want you to let Me change your heart and mindsets of slaves and take on the adoption of sonship and walk in the walk that I have given to you. I want you to walk in My spirit as I have called you to walk and completely be separate from this world where they will know that you walk one with Me. I want to stir up your desire to serve Me with all your heart and no longer allow it to be an obligation, a task to complete. I want to stir up the joy you once had to serve Me.

All you have to do is give Me your heart with humility. All you have to do is lay down all these things that are false accusations and feelings you have towards Me and allow the truth of My love and word to consume you. I want to show you how much I really do love you as My children. I want to show you that obedience is rewarded because of My love not because of obligations and tasks. With every obedience is a lesson to be learned to help you through this life, a reason behind each and every instruction. It is not a task that is simple for you to follow so that you have work to do.

Let Me take away this mindset, this poison in your heart of being a hard task master and let Me soften it with My love as it should be. As this takes place the joy of serving Me as My children will return and in abundance and overflowing. Give Me these things that are destroying your heart and mind and our relationship. Let Me have them and correct them and line them up according to My word, My spirit, and see the truth as the truth is.

I love you My children. There is so much more I have for you. Allow this barrier to be broken down this day. Gain the respect once again for My house, My chosen leaders that I have placed above you, My word, My spirit, My Holy Spirit, My Son. Let respect grow inside of you once again. Allow the fear of Me take root once again as your Father. Be obedient and learn all you can so that the pathway is not so complicated and much joy can be obtained. I am right here loving you My children. Give Me you heart with humility and know this day that I will change and rearrange as you allow Me to do so.
Deuteronomy 10:12-13 (NIV)

12 And now, Israel, what does the Lord your God ask of you but to fear the Lord your God, to walk in obedience to him, to love him, to serve the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul, 13 and to observe the Lord’s commands and decrees that I am giving you today for your own good?

Philippians 2:1-18 (NIV)

2 Therefore if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any common sharing in the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, 2 then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind. 3 Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, 4 not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.

5 In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:

6 Who, being in very nature God,
did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage;
7 rather, he made himself nothing
by taking the very nature of a servant,
being made in human likeness.
8 And being found in appearance as a man,
he humbled himself
by becoming obedient to death—
even death on a cross!

9 Therefore God exalted him to the highest place
and gave him the name that is above every name,
10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
11 and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.

12 Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed—not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence—continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, 13 for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose.

14 Do everything without grumbling or arguing, 15 so that you may become blameless and pure, “children of God without fault in a warped and crooked generation.” Then you will shine among them like stars in the sky 16 as you hold firmly to the word of life. And then I will be able to boast on the day of Christ that I did not run or labor in vain. 17 But even if I am being poured out like a drink offering on the sacrifice and service coming from your faith, I am glad and rejoice with all of you. 18 So you too should be glad and rejoice with me.
Malachi 3:17-18 (NIV)

17 “On the day when I act,” says the Lord Almighty, “they will be my treasured possession. I will spare them, just as a father has compassion and spares his son who serves him. 18 And you will again see the distinction between the righteous and the wicked, between those who serve God and those who do not.
Acts 20:18-21 (NIV)

18 When they arrived, he said to them: “You know how I lived the whole time I was with you, from the first day I came into the province of Asia. 19 I served the Lord with great humility and with tears and in the midst of severe testing by the plots of my Jewish opponents. 20 You know that I have not hesitated to preach anything that would be helpful to you but have taught you publicly and from house to house. 21 I have declared to both Jews and Greeks that they must turn to God in repentance and have faith in our Lord Jesus.
Colossians 3:23-24 (NIV)

23 Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, 24 since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.
1 Peter 1:12 (NIV)

12 It was revealed to them that they were not serving themselves but you, when they spoke of the things that have now been told you by those who have preached the gospel to you by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven. Even angels long to look into these things.
