Deeper

Received by Jeff Bizik in Autumn 2021 and documented on November 5, 2021

Revelation… (What was received – see, hear, sense, feel, know)

I am in the water; I feel the sense of dropping. The light grows dimmer as I continue to feel the descent. I know this water; I breathe it in; I know this place; it’s a place of love. I continue to feel the draw of deeper. It's not just the decrease of light; the pressure is increasing as well. That silky water seems to be pressing in on all sides and all around. I continue to feel the pull of deeper. I’ve learned that my efforts will only exhaust, so I surrender and continue descending. The water is becoming thicker, denser, increasingly substantive. The compression growing – outside in and inside out. I become increasingly uncomfortable; at the same time, I intentionally surrender. I continue descending, I’m not sure how much more I can take. The pressure has become a crushing sensation. Somehow, I continue to breathe although the water has become dense and substantive to the point it’s difficult to move.

I ask the Lord, what is this place? The Lord responds “I have drawn you deeper into my heart.”

I then say It's dark and I am unable to see, it’s heavy and I am unable to move. The Lord responds, “I’ve not asked you to do, I’ve permitted you to come and be."

I cry out that there is nothing I can do! The Lord says “Humility is not acceptance of your weakness, it is surrender and reverence to my strength.”

I don’t like feeling this pressure, This is not how I expected your love to feel. “Surrender is not comfortable, but it will lead you to and produce within you greater comfort.”

This crushing, how much longer can I bear it?

“Fruit, born on the branch of belief, attached to the trunk of Truth, anchored in the roots of Faith, alive in My Love."

Strength.
