My children, today, I want you to walk in holiness. Walking in holiness is very important. Realize that holiness does not mean perfection. Perfection comes as a result of walking in total holiness. You work toward that goal which will be realized the day you come up to be with Me for eternity.

When you walk in holiness you reflect Me. It is doing as I do and loving others as I love them. Holiness is being one with Me. It is walking and talking with Me and listening and obeying My voice. Holiness is dying to self and being purified in My Spirit. It is not an impossible task if you understand what I am asking of you. That is to turn from sin and evil ways by looking to Me and living in My presence. As you seek Me and put Me first in your life you can and will achieve this.

When you allow Me to clear your mind and help you turn from your old ways and put on the new man that is born again when you come into My kingdom, you have stepped closer to holiness. Your actions, behavior, speech, and life will reflect Me and you will be able to respond as I would. This will happen because as we are one you will get to know and understand Me.

I want you to shine for Me and allow people to see Jesus in you. I want you to show people that I am a God of love, understanding, encouragement, grace, mercy, hope, faith, and peace. For them to know this you are going to have to examine your thoughts, words and actions. Are you speaking words of life or death, discipline or destruction, love or hate? Are you being understanding and patient or selfish and irrational? Are you behaving the way I would or is it your flesh? Would My son do what you are doing? Would My son speak how you are speaking?

I sent My son to the earth to show you how much I love you. I did this so that you would not perish but have eternal, everlasting life with Me. I sent Him as an example of what I am asking of you and to show you that it can be achieved in all circumstances. I continued this with My servants after I brought Him back home. I have given you My word as a guideline. I have given you My Holy Spirit to teach you what I am saying and asking of you. I did all of this because I love you. I am asking you to do the same for all those you meet.

Your life should always be a reflection of Me. You should shine like the morning star to direct others to My son. Do this so they can call upon Him and believe and enter into My kingdom. Your life should reflect joy, peace, laughter, patience, understanding, discipline, grace, mercy, hope, and most of all My love. As you press in closer to Me you can and will do these things.

So today, I am asking you to get before Me and allow Me to cleanse, purge, and purify your mind, body, and soul. Let Me cleanse your spirit and refresh it. Let Me do what needs to be done and bring you to the place of holiness. Let Me bring you to the place where you are carrying My presence with you wherever you go so your light will shine and no darkness can be found.

Get to know Me and you will know how to walk in My holiness. Let go of the flesh and allow it to die. Walk in My newness, purity, and presence. Come and receive Me in a greater way than ever before. As you seek Me and desire to walk in holiness, you will see your life become new. But you must first desire and want to change. You must want to do what is necessary at all cost to be one with Me and be about My business.

Holiness… See what it is and that it can be achieved. Come and allow this miraculous connection to take place and watch your light become bright. Share Me with those around you and see the miracles happen. Give them Me this season. Give them Me as you give Me you.
