Good morning,
During the Christmas season, this one line was heard over and over again,"this doesn't feel like Christmas". God was speaking to me continually on this, and here is what was given:
Do not allow your feelings to lead or guide you. Now you must live by faith, which is not feeling based. Here is where you must lean your entire personality over on Me and keep your hand and your eyes on Me. Decisions made now centered on your feelings will surely end in ruin and disaster. Hear My voice clearly and watch My steps also. Know Me and My Word, for those who once followed Me and did not truly love Me will find it difficult to hold on. So it may seem as if you are walking alone, but remember I always have many that have not bowed their knee to the god of this world. I am restoring joy and strength to many that stood through the difficult tests and trials, those who have endured hardness as My soldiers will shine forth as a great city of light. Instead of failing, they have learned how to overcome by the blood and the Word of their testimony. When tested, tempted, and tried they withstood the enemy's beguiling voice of deceit. As in any war, it is the front-liner's who are assaulted the most. Yet, when they outlast all attacks, they receive the greatest reward and spoils. Rewards of honor and valor, things that distinguish them from all others who march alongside them.
Do not let the tactics of the wicked one cause you to become offended, for many of your loved ones may lend their members to offend in this season. Many who oppose Me may be found in your own household, these are signs of the times and of My soon return. You must keep on walking to higher places in Me. Run with those who are running to win, not those who have let the love of this world's system overtake their love for Me. Remember I have foretold you that people would be lovers of themselves, haters of those who do good. So you must subdue your feelings, for the enemy desires for you to make strategic moves based only on what you feel. You must realize that these choices would cause chaos in your life. Now is when you must pursue the enemy with the Word, war with the promises that I have given unto you. My Word will stand through it all, every violent attack against you was sent as a missile to bring you down. I expect My warriors to rise with the weapons of warfare that I have placed at your disposal. They are mighty to bring you through to victory! Stay safe underneath the shadow of My wings!
Love,
Pastor D.
