May you remain true in your devotion to the Lord your God and pure in your affection toward the King, your First Love, not forgetting His gracious care or pushing Him behind your back, completely disregarding the One Who bore your sin at such a cost, but honoring your Betrothed and waiting for Him, obeying the Spirit Who is sent to ready you for the day He comes to receive you as His own, having prepared yourself to be presented without spot, wrinkle, or blemish. Ezekiel 23, Ephesian 5

May you draw near to God with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having your heart sprinkled to cleanse you from a guilty conscience and having been washed with pure water, hold unswervingly to the hope you profess, for He Who promised is faithful since He opened, by the blood of Jesus, a new and living way for you into the Most Holy Place. Hebrews 10

May you live according to the knowledge of the truth you have received, departing from deliberate sin and pleasurable fellowship with the willful and intentional enemies of God, for whom there is no sacrifice remaining, only a fearful expectation of judgment and raging fire, for if rejecting the law of Moses brought death without mercy, how much more severely will one be punished who consciously tramples the Son of God under foot, knowingly treating as unholy the sanctifying blood of the covenant and purposely insulting the Spirit of grace? Hebrews 10

May you know that your confidence will be richly rewarded if you persevere so that when you have done the will of God in the Spirit of Christ, you will receive what He has promised, for in just a very little while, He will return and gather His righteous ones who have been living by the faith of Christ, because those who shrink back in pride or fear, though they profess much, are not able to please Him. Hebrews 10

I take pleasure in the springtime of your soul, when My Spirit is moving over the hard, frozen ground of your heart, bringing the warming, thawing rains that melt and break up the resisting ground, allowing the seeds of My Truth to push through to the light as I wake them from the sleep that has held them.
The visible changes from barren cold earth to tender green, and then to lush verdant growth, draws notice from others who have known you and causes them to seek My answers in order to learn how they can receive the same rich blessings in their lives.
The time of flowering is an occasion of beauty that gladdens the hearts of all who see the delicacy of color; the diversity of shapes and sizes draws praise from the beholders, which I receive. The fragrance is heady and exhilarating, and all the senses are engaged during this time of living vigor.
My true joy and deep rejoicing, though, comes in the autumn when the harvest is gathered in, for that is the result of the persistence and endurance of those who truly believed, obeying My will, doing My work, trusting My words, through the heat of the summer, through storms and droughts, never quitting, always standing back up again if blown down by the storm or pummeled by the hail.
Though the beauty of the blossom brings pleasure to the beholder, not every flower in spring will bear fruit in autumn – only those who overcome and endure.

May your heritage of obedience to God continue to many generations, even as you have received the heritage of righteousness from your spiritual parents in the Lord, and may God always recall the faith you have walked in, that it will be spoken of as a testimony to nations. Psalm 109

May you wear blessing as a garment, like a cloak wrapped around you, tied like a belt forever about you, so that it overflows from within you like springs of living water wherever you go, and soaks into your bones like the oil of anointing, bringing refreshing and renewal through your touch and your words to all you encounter, for your every thought is to do kindness, and to bring joy to the heart of the poor, the needy, and the broken-hearted; so may the blessing you share come upon you, and may the pleasure of giving be always near you, for this is the Lord's recompense to those who delight in doing God's will. Psalm 109

May the Sovereign Lord deal well with you for His name's sake, and deliver you because of the goodness of His love, when you are poor and needy your heart is wounded within you, that you will not fade away like an evening shadow, or be shaken off like a locust, but be strengthened in your fasting and given authority against your accusers.
