Beverly's Beatitudes


The Father says today, cast your care upon Me. Those things that you cannot change and cannot get free from, make them My concern and not yours. In My earth walk, I was tempted. I was tempted in every point such as you have been tempted, yet without sin. Your efforts to deal with difficulty and problems often result in making matters worse and polluting your testimony by ungodly responses. Face the reality of your own inability to have a godly response to the ghastly treatment you have received from others. Let Me step in. Run into the high tower of My name. Take your refuge in Me and stop trying to defend the indefensible. I endured rejection. I was hated and despised. I endured all these things so you wouldn't have to. It doesn't mean others won't come against you. It simply means that the sting of hate and sin against you will be assuaged and alleviated by My grace if you will, just give it to Me.

Be wise as a serpent but harmless as a dove. Learn to go quiet when you are in the presence of your enemies. When others narrow the eye and whisper behind closed doors against you - just go low and worship. Go low, take the posture of humility, for I give grace to the humble but resist the proud. Humility is your secret weapon. They may mock and say, "who do you think you are?" but just stay in stillness and trust. They may goad and despise you because those are the things that provoke pride. Refuse to be baited into coming out of the secret place. Let the heathen rage. Let the godless spew their vitriol against you but stay in the place of quiet trust and deep abiding in Me till the storm is passed. This is the path of freedom. It isn't what you have been told by those who think they are the authority on such things, but you be a Father-pleaser and seek the kingdom against all opposition and see the reward that comes to you as a result.
