I know the language of communication you use, and in this season, I will use what is around you day by day to communicate with you. I want you to take note of the ways I speak to you in your daily life as a reminder of My complete omnipresence and encouragement of My closeness for the seasons ahead when you will need this reminder. It is time to raise an Ebenezer: a reminder of who I am and My involvement in your life, from days past to the very present. I will be the same God in the seasons ahead, and as you raise your ‘stone of help’ (eben = stone; ezer = help), I will be an ever-present help for you in times of trouble. Remember Me first as your Father, the one who looks after you and has adopted you as My child into My kingdom. You will always find your hope in Me. For I am your great fortress, the Almighty God, your very present Father who welcomes you in every time and season. Wherever I take you, remember that I am Yours, and you are Mine.

In Samuel 7:12, the people of Israel raised an Ebenezer (a stone of help) as a reminder of how God delivered Israel from their peril, serving as a symbol of gratitude for the Lord’s divine help. God wants to remind you how He is always in your life, protecting you and helping you in all your times of trouble. Ask the Lord today how you can raise an ‘Ebenezer’ in your life to thank and honour Him as your Deliverer and Help. This could simply be a song, a shout, praise, or anything that serves as a reminder of who He is, prompting you to stop and remember the Lord’s faithfulness as you give thanks to Him, your ever-present help in times of trouble. Ask, and He will show you!
I have told you these things so that My joy anddelight may be in you, and that your joy may be made full and complete and overflowing.
John 15:11 (AMP)
5 He predestined and lovingly planned for us to be adopted to Himself as [His own] children through Jesus Christ, in accordance with the kind intention and good pleasure of His will—
6 to the praise of His glorious grace and favor, which He so freely bestowed on us in the Beloved [His Son, Jesus Christ].
Ephesians 1:5-6 (AMP)
Then Samuel took a stone and set it between Mizpah and Shen, and he named it Ebenezer (stone of help), saying, “Thus far the LORD has helped us.”
1 Samuel 7:12 (AMP)
