Remember your brethren in My presence, My fearless one, seeking My provision and guidance for them, claiming My promises on their behalf, letting My Spirit pray through you, so that My Body may be knit together with cords of My love expressed by each member, supplying that which will grow and mature My Bride to be fully equipped with all spiritual gifts and enriched by the abundance of heaven.
