What greater investment can you make than to free those in captivity

Day 56

These words sound much like the ones spoken by You to Gideon, so long ago. They carry with them a sense of now is the time for action, yet I am unsure of what to do. Having never been able to see differently, and not knowing how to use might and power to create something new, I am at a bit of a loss in knowing what to do. I am willing; can I have more direction for how to proceed?

Begin to see in your mind that which you would want to see. It can’t be Me telling you what to do – you must rise and claim that which you have seen. You must spend time to capture your thoughts and form them into the vision you wish to manifest. Can you see freedom over confinement – what does it look like to you? Can you see wealth over poverty, overcoming in battle? These cannot be achieved without the planning and execution of vision. It requires your time. But if you are willing to trust Me, trust My words, then you will have success.

As you move into this realm, where you have no history, no experience – I will be with you, and will show you how to proceed. You know about investment, leverage, win and loss – what greater investment can you make than to free those in captivity, just like Gideon?

Now the angel of the LORD came and sat under the terebinth at Ophrah, which belonged to Joash the Abiezrite, while his son Gideon was beating out wheat in the winepress to hide it from the Midianites. And the angel of the LORD appeared to him and said to him, “The LORD is with you, O mighty man of valor.” And Gideon said to him, “Please, my lord, if the LORD is with us, why then has all this happened to us? And where are all his wonderful deeds that our fathers recounted to us, saying, ‘Did not the LORD bring us up from Egypt?’ But now the LORD has forsaken us and given us into the hand of Midian.” And the LORD turned to him and said, “Go in this might of yours and save Israel from the hand of Midian; do not I send you?”
