The Father says today that I am giving you beauty for ashes. I am pouring out the oil of joy for the spirit of heaviness. This is your appointment. I have not appointed you to wrath. I have not appointed you to loss. I have prepared for you a garment of praise to replace all the grave clothes of disappointment in your spiritual wardrobe. Cast off the widow's attire beloved and rejoice as a bride on her wedding day. You are a tree of righteousness. I have planted you and I am tending you each and every moment. My purpose in your life is to be glorified in signs and wonders and miracles and provision. This is your entitlement - purchased by the blood of Calvary.

You get to choose says the Father. It is your privilege to choose not to be conformed to the world around you. In the choosing is the proving. I will prove you and I will temper you as you embrace the good and acceptable and perfect will that I am bringing about in your life. This is your measure. This is the faith that I have accorded you so come forward and believe. Shake yourself from the stupor of unbelief and sorrow. The hour of rejoicing has arrived so get ready for launching into new purpose.
