My children, it is removal time. It is time to do some deep cleaning and getting rid of the junk and the debris that has been cluttering up your spirit, your soul, and your body. It is time to let go of all this old stuff that was of the past and see the future for what it really is.

Why are you so afraid of letting it go? I say to you right now, do not be afraid or upset about what I am taking and removing from you. Instead look at it as a relief and a release for you to be able to take on the new that I have prepared for you to do. I am asking you to allow yourself to be prepared and let go of your preconceived notions, ideas, and thinking. I want you to really see the truth on what I have been saying to you for a long time but because you have been so clouded with the stuff you are holding onto you have not been able to see the fullness of what I have been saying.

Just as the leaves are changing color on the trees as they are about to die and fall off, so are the things in you that I am removing. When the death of the leaves comes they fall off the tree and make room for the new life that is about to take place. It is no different on what I am doing with you. And in the process in between the falling of the old and the beginning of the new there is a testing period to see how much you can stand, just as the winter months do so that you are able to properly be prepared to accept the new life. This is what I am doing for you, My children in this time and season.

I am stripping the “tree”, My children, bare. I am exposing you as naked before Me so that you can be prepared for the new life and new ways that I am preparing to give you. The greater and deeper things of Me and the new way to walk in Me that will bring you to a place far better than where you were. And as you withstand the test and the preparation then new life will sprout and you will be able to walk in the fullness of your destination that is set before you and you will shine with My glory and beauty.

Let go of the old. Let it be removed. Let the preparation begin and don’t want what you used to have but strive for what I am giving you. When you do this, the enemy can no longer taunt you to go to your old ways, habits, and walks, but you will be encouraged to move forward and receive all that I have promised.

“But their minds were made dull, for to this day the same veil remains when the old covenant is read. It has not been removed, because only in Christ is it taken away.” (2 Corinthians 3:14)

“The LORD brings death and makes alive; he brings down to the grave and raises up.” (1 Samuel 2:6)

“a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to tear down and a time to build,” (Ecclesiastes 3:3)

“See now that I myself am He! There is no god besides me. I put to death and I bring to life, I have wounded and I will heal, and no one can deliver out of my hand.” (Deuteronomy 32:39)
