LESS IN YOUR HAND, MORE IN YOUR HEART

Prophecy given through Barbara Williams, December 11, 2004

Now the Lord does want me to speak something to you. And the Spirit of the Lord is watching and He's sensing and He's understanding and He reads our hearts and He is saying to those of you who have a heart to give and do not have the finances to give what you want to give. For He's saying, "many of you are allowing the enemy to steal your joy because your saying, ‘Here it is again, another Christmas, I don't have what I need financially. Why is it that I have to cut back? Why is it that I don't have the finances? Why is that I never have?'"

The Lord says, "I hear those grumblings and I hear those rumblings in your soul," says the Spirit. But He says, "You know what? If there is less in your hand, there could be more in your heart," says the Lord. If there is less in your hand, I can put more in your heart," says the Lord. "If there is less in your hand," says the Spirit. "I can put more in your heart," says the Lord. "For when you have less that you can give that's in the visible," says the Spirit of God, "I can cause you to search Me out, and seek Me out, and search for more ways to put more in your heart," says the Spirit. "For when there is less in your hand," says the Lord, "there will be more in your heart, if you will allow Me to put it in there," says the Lord. "You've got to allow Me to do this," says the Spirit.

"And I can put more in your heart, for people," says the Lord. "And I can put more in your mouth, for people," says the Lord. "And I will bring the things to your hands, that will truly bless people," says the Lord. "For you have been through years," says the Spirit, "where you give things that are not appreciated, they cost you money and you're upset. Now you're at a point where you don't have the finances, you're still upset," says the Lord. "And don't you know I'm trying to get your attention so I can show you what this season is really about," says the Lord. "And if you will let Me put more in your heart when there is less in your hand, you will find that Christmas has a whole new meaning for you," says the Lord.

"For I am trying to bring meaning the to the lives of people," says the Lord. "And if you can let Me put something in your heart that means something to you, then when you give that out with your words and with just your presence and with a phone call and with a card… when you give out of that full spirit of love, whatever you give will make so much more difference to people," says the Spirit of God. "For I am looking for those who want to give out of a full heart and not a full pocket book," says the Lord. "Give out of a full heart instead of a full pocket book," says the Spirit, "Give out of a full heart instead of a full pocket book," says the Spirit of God.

"Look around you and see what you possess that might be a blessing to someone," says the Spirit. "Look around you and see what you possess that may be a blessing to someone," says the Spirit of God. "But look in the mirror first and see a heart that I can cause to be large in Me, that I can cause to be great in Me. And if you will let Me put more in your heart even when there's less in your hand, you'll find that your Christmas is wonderful. You'll find that you can share the greatest gift. You'll find that you can share the best gift on earth and that is the gift of eternal life," says the Spirit. "You'll find that you can share Christ in a greater and a greater way because you'll be relying on what's in your heart, instead of what's in your hand," says the Spirit of the Living God.

"And if you let Me put it in your heart, (hah), it'll show up in your hand. If you let Me put it in your heart first, it will show up in your hand," says the Lord. "For when you are rich on the inside, you automatically get it in the outside. There's an automatic outward manifestation of that which I have placed, but you got to let Me put it in you. You got to let Me put it in you. You got to remove the complaining. You've got to remove the pity. You've got to remove everything that's blocking and let Me put it in you and you'll find that it will manifest on the outside," says the Spirit of the Living God.
