and this is what I heard Him say:

Read Genesis 32

God spoke to me today from Genesis 32:30 where Jacob said, "I saw God face to face" and this is what I heard Him say:

“I long to have a face to face with you.  How long has it been since our last face to face? Too much gets in the way for a face to face.  You see I dwell in a high and holy place, and also with those who are of a broken and contrite spirit (Isaiah 57:15).  Jacob humbled himself before his brother, He humbled himself before Me too.  He knew he was unworthy of all my kindness and unworthy of Esau’s too.  It was then that I came to him.  The same is true for you.  When you humble yourself and realize just how unworthy you are of My grace and mercy, when you humble yourself with a broken and contrite heart and spirit, then, and only then, can we have a meaningful face to face. So today don’t be in such a hurry, Jacob wrestled with Me all night for the blessing.  Surely, you can linger a little longer with Me than you do.  The results will be amazing.  You will never be the same.  I will touch you powerfully.  It all starts with humbling yourself.  I really do long for a face to face with you.”
