Good Morning,

    This is the Word of the Lord that was received at our church this Sunday:

    You have heard about the narrow way and
how it is upon you now, but some of your hearts cannot see beyond your
current moment.  Hear me and listen, I have nothing but good in My eyes for
you.  For with My eye I will guide you until the end.  As always that end
is for good.  That is My creation, design and invention for you.  The
narrow way will bring you into a broad place.  Just as I led My people
Israel through the wilderness, and My end for them was the Promised land
The wilderness was allowed so that all that was fleshly died.  Every
desire that kept them naturally connected to Egypt had to die also.  I wanted their new beginning to bring them to trust only in Me.

    Think higher thoughts!  Do not be afraid of
a narrow way, it is an opening to a larger way. Constrictions are
placed in a narrow way to make you apply pressure.  Pressure to My Word,
which will not fail.  Pressure to the righteousness and holiness that is
living in My people who have been living whole-heartedly for Me.  Pressure applied will produce from your holy lips a rhema Word that I will quicken to perform.  Align your thoughts with Mine.
    Babies are brought through a narrow birth
canal, yet it opens for them a broad new world.  A new beginning for
them.  So it will be for you, you will be brought forth into a broad new
arena, with new beginnings.  As you come through the narrow place, the
old after-birth will be discarded along with the dependency on things
that were conducive in that old season.  Think, I have brought you to
the Kingdom through a narrow way, yet it is the opening to the highway
of heaven and the broad way of real living.  I Am raising you to new
levels of challenge and destiny.  It is new to you, but not to Me.  That
is why you need to completely depend on Me, your Father Provider, to
reveal to you My way to the broad open spaces that I Am bringing you
to.  Now you must keep My promises in your mouth.  Keep your hands held
high in praise.  Keep living holy.  I Am making your Words to Me, a new
song, a new prophetic threshing instrument.  More powerful than ever
before.  Your eyes are beginning to see what I Am doing and yes, it is
too wonderful for you to comprehend or to put in words.  As you break
through the narrow way into the broad spaces, a shout will come forth. 
A shout that will bring a new sound that will shake the foundation of
the earth.  Many will come to your arising, to look and see the
miraculous awakening of My people.  My real church is transitioning into
greater power, greater anointing, greater love and greater works.  My
church has been in preparation, shaking loose the old things and all
that has hindered.  She is coming forth as My glorified Church!
 
Love,

Pastor D.

Good Morning,

 This morning I hear the Spirit saying;

    I Am doing something in your days such
that you wouldn't believe it even if someone told you about it.  Be
astonished, and astounded my children.  In your midst I have been trying
to get your attention.  Many still will not hear My voice, even though I
Am using every thing available to get them to clear their ears for My
voice.  For those who hear, I say that this is Our time to shine!  When
darkness covers the face of the earth, that is when I call forth the
light.  I Am calling forth the light that resides in you.  In you I have
placed hidden resources and great treasures that are now waiting to be
revealed.  The world is in need of those things that I have placed
inside of you.  Deep is calling to the deep inside of you.  Open up My
treasure trove.  Let me show you what you are really made of.  My great
DNA is flowing through your veins.  As you continue to come up higher
and you hear My voice beckoning you to do so, you will begin to
recognize that at the end of you is an opening up to a new beginning in
Me.  Secret riches in heavenly places.  The mind of Christ is in you
and all that I Am resides in you.  Where there is a shortage in the
natural, it is only an opening for the limitless supply of your God and
Our kingdom
When there is a famine in the natural, it is only a door for the
heavens to open its windows and pour out blessings that can't be
contained.  There is no stopping us.  We have just begun to shine.  I Am
glad that it has come to this time, for now My children will begin to
truly know Me as their great Father and Provider.  I will not be known by
what I use to be, but by who I Am.  My children will see that when
there is trouble and darkness all around, that even their darkness is
light, because I Am Light.  I Am the same God, I change not.  I do not
change, no matter what is going on, I Am the same.  You will be known as
those who minister to those who have been cast down.  When others have
dried out you will be known as the ones who water.  I will make My name
known to your adversaries.  All the seed that you have sown into the
kingdom is once again about to be multiplied back to the faithful, in 
an extraordinary way. 
You
will cause a shaking in the atmosphere around you.  Those whose desires
are toward Me, will rise up with a double recompense.
    Those who have been calling unto Me, I Am showing you great and mighty things in the realms of the Spirit.  Hidden things ,that it is now the time and the season to be brought to the surface.  It is time, mark it down.  Greater revelation,
yet simple for all to understand, who require it of Me.  Instead of
breaking down under these times of transition you have used it to
increase your spiritual hunger to know Me.  Now I will be the dew unto
you and you will continue to grow as the lilies, My loves.
 
Love,

Pastor D.

Good Morning,

    John 18: 36— "Jesus answered, My
kingdom is not of this world, if My kingdom were of this world, then
would My servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews.  But as it is, My kingdom is not from here (this world) it has no such
origin or source."  Col. 1:12-13; "Giving thanks
to the Father, Who has qualified and made us fit to share the portion
which is the inheritance of the saints (God's holy people) in the
Light.  The Father has delivered and drawn us to Himself out of the control and the dominion of the darkness and has transferred us into the kingdom of the Son of His love."  "The kingdom of God
does not come with signs to be observed or with visible display.  Nor
will people say, Look! Here [it is]! or, See, it is there!  For behold,
the kingdom of God is within you [in your hearts].." (Lk. 17:20-21)
"And from the days of John the Baptist until the present time, the kingdom of heaven
has endured violent assault and violent men seize it by force (a
precious prize – a share in the heavenly kingdom is sought with most
ardent zeal and intense exertions)." ( Mtt. 11:12)
    Now we have been made to qualify through Jesus to operate as ambassadors to the kingdom of God.  Our kingdom
is not of this world, but it is within us, just as an any ambassador
would have their kingdom in their hearts.  They would represent how
their kingdom operates in a foreign country.  We are living and working
for our kingdom also.  We are to function according to the kingdom of
God here on earth.  The kingdom of God operates and is effective based
upon the foundation of love.  The language of our kingdom is faith. 
Those who want to be effective, must seek the ways of the kingdom with
the most ardent zeal and intense exertion.  You must be stirred up about
what the kingdom is stirred up about.
    Listen to what will always remain in this kingdom of ours.  "And now abides faith, hope and love [faith—conviction and belief
respecting mans relation to God and divine things; hope–joyful and
confident expectation of external salvation;  love–true affection for
God and man, growing out of God's love for us and in us] these three;
but the greatest of these is love.  Eagerly pursue and seek to acquire
this love [make it your aim, your great quest].."  (I Corin.
13:13–14:1)
  Love is the greatest
building block in our kingdom.  Now let me ask you a question.  Has love
really been your great quest or aim?  This is what makes the kingdom of
God effective in every area that the kingdom can and will influence
those around.  Is this what you are building in your heart?  When was
the last time you actually pursued and sought to acquire this love? 
This is what causes us to become truly like God and to really know God
more intimately.  Listen:
"May you be rooted deep in love and founded securely on love. (sounds like foundation material and building stones) That you may be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length and depth and height.  And to know the love of Christ,
which passes knowledge that you may be filled unto all the fullness of
God. [may have the richest measure of the divine Presence and become a
body wholly filled and flooded with God Himself]
(Ephes. 3:17-19)
    Love is the
greatest force of the kingdom and it will abide forever.  Love will
cause you to be filled with the fullness of God to the richest measure. 
This love increases the knowledge of God in you and makes your faith
more energized.  We are kingdom people, ambassadors for the kingdom of
heaven, and this kingdom operates by love.  So, let's get violent and
seize the kingdom, by love, our great quest and aim.  It's done by intense exertion and ardent zeal of love.  It is not of this world, it is the way of the kingdom and our great King. 
"Therefore be imitators of God [copy Him and follow His example], as well beloved children. And walk in love,.." (Ephes.5:1-2)
 
Love,

Pastor D.

Good Morning,

    I have been meditating on the words of a song and also these same words are found in the Song of Solomon.  Listen with your heart to these verses.

    S.O S.1:15; "Behold you are fair, my love; behold you are fair; you have dove's eyes."  "Behold you are fair, my love; behold you are fair; you have dove's eyes within your locks:…" (S.O.S.4:1)  Then it appears again in S.O.S.2:14; "{So I went with him, and when we were climbing the rocky steps up the hillside, my beloved shepherd said to me} O my dove, {while you are here} in the seclusion of the clefts of the solid rock,
in the sheltered and secret place of the cliff, let me see your face,
let me hear your voice; for your voice is sweet and your face is
lovely."
    My meditation was on the words 'dove's eyes and dove'.  It
is interesting to note that dove's mate for life.  They are faithful to
one another.  Their mating is symbolized as one of warmth.  Doves are
gentle and meek.  That is why we typify them as a symbol of peace.  Interestingly enough the Word of God portrays the Holy Spirit as a dove.
(Mtt. 3:16; Mk. 11:15; Lk. 3:22; Jn.1:32); (because Holy Spirit is meek, gentle, faithful and single-eyed)   The
dove's eyes represent having undistracted vision.  Single-eyedness,
nothing else enters the eye gate, but what it is looking upon.
    As we keep a
single-eyedness toward our Lover of our soul, it is easier to ascend up
the steep and narrow places of life.  Only those that have undistracted
vision, keeping their gaze fixed on the Lover of their soul will be
able to come up into the high places of God.  Having a single-eyedness
also causes your ears to become sensitive to His voice alone.  You know,
"My sheep hear My voice, and I know them and they follow Me." (Jn.10: 27)  Also, having an undistracted vision and single-eyedness makes for peace.  Notice the verse that follows S.O.S. 2:14, verse 15, it says, "Catch all the foxes, the little foxes that ruin the vineyard."  In
order to keep those foxes out of our vineyard, we would do well to
train our eyes to become single.  All of the little foxes are everything
in our lives that distract and keep our eyes upon them.  No matter
what it is, big or small.  They are burrowers that try to dig deep and
get our eye off of the Lord of our soul.  From inner issues to outer
issues.  Our promise is,
"You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You." (Is. 26:3)  Our Lord is working to keep our eyes of love faithfully looking unto him.  Remember and think on these Words this week; "Now
I say this to your own welfare and profit, not to put a [halter of}
restraint upon you, but to promote what is seemly and in good order and
to secure your undistracted and undivided devotion to the Lord."
"Looking away [from all that will distract us] to Jesus, Who is the Leader and the source of our faith…"  (I Corin. 7:35; Hebrews 12:2)
    Now listen to this: "The light of the body is the eye; therefore when your eye is single, your whole body also is full of light.."  ( Lk.11:34)
You and I owe it to our new life in Christ to become single-eyed and to
become undistracted in our faithful love to the Lover of our soul. 
Listen to how it delights our Lord.
S.O.S. 4:9; "You have ravished My heart, my sister, my spouse; you have ravished My heart with one of your eyes..
    Ravished means to transport with love, joy and delight.  To carry away as into another state.  Every
time we stay single-eyed we transport our Lord with our love into great
delights and joys.  Let's focus our dove's eyes on Him at all times.
 
 Love,

Pastor D.

Good Morning,

    Isaiah 43:2-3; "When you go through deep
waters, I will be with you.  When you go through rivers of difficulty,
you will not drown.  When you walk through the fire of oppression, you
will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you" ..verses 4 says
"Others were given in exchange for you.  I traded their lives for yours,
because you are
precious to Me."
    We
are unstoppable, as long as we stay connected to our Lord.  There is no
circumstance, no test, trials or tribulations that would ever bring us
down, if we would only learn to hide under the shadows of God's mighty
wings
.  God is our deliverer, our restorer and our protection.  Our great UPS – our upholder, our preserver, our sustainer.  Our rescuer!
    "Bring all who claim Me as their God, for I have made them for My glory." (Isaiah 43:7) Just
think about everything that you have endured, this year alone.  God
loves to take our worst days and use them for a turn around for the
best days that are ahead.  Your life brings God glory.  That is a selah, pause, reflect and calmly think on that.  You, yes, you bring the God of the universe and beyond, glory. 
Glory meaning, rare splendor and honor, and copiousness which is abundance; full supply and ample.  Just think on that for a moment!  You, the one who never feels quite
adequate, you bring God an abundance, a full supply.  You give Him a
rare splendor and honor, by your life being lived for Him.  When you go
through you are being purified and raised to a new level in your faith. 
Look at how God sees it.
  Isaiah 43:11-13;
"I, yes I Am the Lord, and there is no other Savior.  First I predicted
your rescue, then I saved you and proclaimed it to the world.  No
foreign god has ever done this.  You are My witnesses that I Am the only
God.  No one can snatch anyone out of My hand.  No one can undo what I
have done."
  It is plain and simple, we can't lose if we stay in His hand.  Now you are the only one that can remove yourself from the hand of God
No one else have that power, only you.  So choose to stay in His firm
and loving grip and you will pass through to the other side, stronger
and a more formidable adversary to our enemy.  The storms is passing
over and when they do, more and better fruit will spring up.  For those
who are planted by the rivers bear fruit in all seasons and their
leaves never wither and they prosper in all they do.
 
Love,

Pastor D.

Good Morning,

I received this word as I was coming out of my prayer closet.

    This enemy of Ours is attempting
to lull a great body of My people to sleep.  "Sleep", he says, "through
the crisis in your life".  "Sleep", he says, "to the cries of the lost
world".  "Sleep, you don't need to be aware of the times or season that
you are in", says the liar.  Sleep so that your spiritual senses become
dull.  Sleep in order that you might receive more of his lies.  Sleep so that you are deaf to My voice. 
    He is using the cares of this
world, the lust and longings for other things, (wants, entertainment,
business) and the deceitfulness of riches, those cravings and desires
for more and more, all those things that beckon for your attention.  He
is applying a smoke screen. 
    Awake from your spiritual slumber,
for it is the sleep of death!  Sent to kill your real life in Me.  Where
are the watchmen on the walls?  Those who are seers, that I have
anointed to see ahead, to the times and the season.  Listen as they cry
out to you.  For the spirit of deceitfulness has caused your walk to
become lethargic, as one who feels in the darkness.  Your great light
that once burned brightly has become small.  Wake up to righteousness! 
You don't even know how far you have fallen.  You have judged yourself
by others that have been dulled by this life.  Those who have become
lovers of this world.  Those who are taking pleasure in the wickedness
around them.  Turn your gaze back on Me, your Bright and Morning
Star.  You once ran with the messengers that carried My Word.  Now you
have put down your torch and run with the jackals of this temporary
world.  Return to
Me
!
    You must stay planted by the river of My
Word in order to have a ceaseless supply of fresh water.  So that no
matter what the outer conditions, you will continue to produce.  Each
time you dwell in darkness and with sin, you are weakened to your
defense against it.  Your delight and desires for Me will shift.  You
cannot love two lovers.  You will either hate the one and love the
other.  Remember how you loved Me, I was your delight and your desire. 
Come back to Me with your whole heart and I will heal you of your
backsliding heart.  I have been speaking gently, while the world screams
at you for your attention and affection.  Now I will shout as one who is
in travail.  Awake, arise and stir yourself up to Me!!  Do not grow
weary in your waiting.  Do not grow weary in your well doing.  I will
come for you.  I Am coming for My Bride, so wake up to My Word.  Stay
alert to My Presence and know the times that we are in.
    Here are the scriptures that I heard in my heart . II
Corin. 2:14-16; " …Now He uses us to spread the knowledge of Christ
everywhere, like a sweet perfume.  Our lives are a Christ-like fragrance
rising up to God.  But this fragrance is perceived differently by those
who are being saved and by those who are perishing.  To those who are
perishing we are a dreadful smell of death and doom.  But to those who
are being saved, we are a life giving perfume…"  II Corin.13:5;
"Examine yourselves to see if your faith is genuine. Test
yourselves.  Surely you know if Jesus Christ is among you, if not, you
have failed the test of genuine faith.  "I Corin. 15: 33-34; "Be not
deceived and misled!  Evil companionships (communion, associations)
corrupt and deprave good manners and morals and character.  Awake from
your drunken stupor and return to sober sense and your right minds and
sin no more….."
    There are
some other verses that the Lord gave me and I pray that you will give
them serious meditation and study.  Do you remember how it was when you
first loved Him?  Do you remember how you couldn't wait to go to church
and be with other believers?  Do you remember the excitement you felt
when you fist realized that God was really speaking to you through His
Word?  Let's keep ourselves stirred up in Him, it is your choice to keep
the fire burning.
 
Love,

Pastor D.

Good Morning,

    James 1:12 – "Blessed is the man who is patient under trial and stands up under temptation, for when he has stood the test and been approved,
he will receive the victors crown of life which God has promised to
those who love Him."  I Peter 1:6-7 – "You should be exceedingly glad
on this account, though now for a little while you may  be distressed
by trials and suffer temptations.  So that the genuineness of your faith may be tested, [your faith] which is infinitely more precious than the perishable gold which is tested and purified by fire.  [This proving of your faith is intended] to redound to your praise and glory and honor when Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One)
is revealed.  Job 23:10 – "But He knows the way that I take (He has
concern for it, appreciates and pay attention to it).  When He has tried me, I shall come forth as refined gold (pure and
luminous).
Psalm 66:10 – "For You O God have proved us, You have tried us as silver is tried, refined and purified."
    By now we
are all seeing this process for purification and refining is costly to
God and us.  It cost our Lord His life to purchase us.  Now to uncover
the gold that is in us takes time for Him as well as for us.  For us, it
takes us going into the fire also.  Refining gold is a valuable and
costly affair. 
Refine is to free from
impurities or unwanted material; to free from moral imperfections; to
improve by pruning or polishing; to free from what is coarse, vulgar or
uncouth; to become pure or perfected by improvements by both subtleties
and distinctions.
  Let us think that out together.  To uncover the gold that is in us, the process is in what we see as tests, trials and tribulations,
whether they are emotional, financial, physical or through our
relationships.  God knows how to mine for gold, for he sought us and we
were dug out of the rough.  Yet, He is not through with us.  He wants the
ultimate from His purchases.  He is removing those things that are
coarse, vulgar and uncouth in us.  Freeing us from all imperfections
and impurities.  We all want the end results, to be refined.  So, now we
need to learn to count it all joy when we go through diverse testing,
it is part of the refining process.  To draw out of each of us the deep
seated value that only He sees and knows that lies beneath the
impurities that have become mixed into our character, from living in
the rough.  To
purify
means to clean; to wash or cleanse; to clarify; to make clear by
decontaminating and disinfecting; to purge and sanctify. 
Our
great loving God is purifying us from all that has contaminated our
minds, and our future destiny, by allowing the fires of tests,
trials etc. to burn away from us anything that will infect us. 
Infections weaken us and deprive us of our strength and potential by levels. 
He is clarifying our walk with Him, clearing away all hindrances and
the familiar obstacles that we have stumbled over in the past.  Sad to
say even some of the hindrances have been people in our lives that we
refuse to let go of, that may be helping us to stay contaminated or
infected.  It doesn't always have to be inanimate things.  We need to let
God be the refiner and purifier that He is.  He is increasing the
quality and value of our life lived for Him and for those with whom we
have any affect and influence upon
.

I hear the Spirit of the Lord saying;

    I Am bringing a new revelation of
holiness to you.  For you are the ones who will display My
righteousness, My holiness.  I am bringing things to the surface in you
and by My mighty strong wind I will come and blow on My gold.  With the
power and force of the wind I will blow all that has been sticking to
you.  I have placed My anointing all over you for you have stayed in the
fires and now coming forth is the new man that will not let the same
old things to stick your heart and mind like you allowed before.  You
have come into your time.  It is our time to demonstrate to this world
what real gold looks like and how you will shine, you will shine for
Me!  You are now clearer and more clarified than you have ever been
before.  There is no mixture in you.  Truly sanctified for the service of
your God.  There are moments that you can see all that I have in store
for you.  You will do great things not yet seen by men.  Your offerings
to Me are right and true now.  No more mixture.  Now all we see what 
valuable gems I have in You.  You will outshine every generation.
 
Love,

Pastor D.

Good Morning,

 The Spirit of the Lord says:

    For false messiahs and false prophets have risen and they perform signs and wonders so as to deceive, if possible, even God's chosen ones.  This spirit of religion has always tried to blur the true faith
with itself.  I Am not deceived, for I know how to keep the elect from
deception and I will avenge My elect soon.  I have never seen things
through the eyes of man.  My ways and thoughts are higher.  I look upon
the heart, not on the outer appearance, nor at the smooth lips or words
of men.  Man can be deceived, unless he sees with My eyes.  My selection
is from the heart of man.  While you are looking at the Saul's as the
elect, I Am selecting David's.  While you are looking at the gender, I
Am choosing Deborah's.
    In the approaching days, fresh revelation
knowledge is coming to the very elect, My Word will be truly uncovered. 
Those who have made Me their choice and their selection above all else,
will find that I have anointed them with a double anointing.  A great
desire and delight for My Word, mixed with deep insight will be theirs. 
Even now they are rising from every corner of the seven continents of the
earth.  Their candles are burning brighter for Me.  Their obedience to My
Word and their love for Me keeps a steady flow of revelation.  In
worship, they have learned true humility.  They have encountered the Ancient of Days,
in their worship.  These are My elect, usually unknown by men, yet
tenderly known of Me.  In those moments of being still they have been
taught the unique blending of 'Spirit' and 'Truth'. 
They will excel in revelation and insight, causing their walk to be
extreme.  Extremely devoted, extremely faithful, to the One who has
called them.  They are not compromisers!  Others will be blinded by their
glory that reflects from their extreme worship of Me.  They will not be
called a desolate or forsaken city, but they will be the city of My
delight.  I delight in them and they delight in Me.
    Hear Me, My elect, many lives are
depending upon you staying the course.  Be true to your calling.  Run the
race, do not look to the right or left, look right on.  The race is not given to the swift, but to those who finish the course!
 
Love,

Pastor D.

Good Morning,

    I would like to share with you the Word of the Lord that our church, Hesed Ministries received Sunday morning.
    By the end of this year I will have repositioned
My people for a stable transition.  For I know the businesses and
financial institutions that will stand the next few years.  The natural earthquakes, fires, floods and unusual signs in the heavens, have begun
to filter down into the grain of everyday living.  That is why there is
relational, financial and physical earthquakes, floods, fires and
unusual happenings to the people on the face of the earth.  My children
shall be kept as in the times of Moses, in the land of Goshen.  I Am
placing you in different places for the days ahead where I know that
you will be preserved and sustained.  There are certain places where I
will cause you to rise and fly, to keep you from hurt while the storm
that is brewing.  My children who will run to the cleft of the Rock will
be inaccessible to the darts of the enemy.  Yield to my leading, even
though you may not understand right now what I Am doing.  I Am
repositioning you for your preservation.  The world is growing weary of
the current conditions and they are looking for a safe place.  My
children will be safe as in the land of Goshen, kept from the effects
of Egypt.  Your family, your finances, your life preserved and upheld because you
are Mines, truly Mines.  There where those in Egypt who ran to those in
Goshen for the protection that they saw upon their lives.  Aliens to the
faith of Israel,
were willing and obedient to come and serve Israel's God, for their
soul preservation.  This will be repeated in your time now.  I have declared that 'you will shine' and
now is your time.  Those outside the faith will want to know how and why
you are being kept from the plaques of this time and season
You will humbly know and say, "it is because of my God, the One and
Only true God."  At the same time those who were within My house and
have not been rooted will become offended with Me and My Word.  Those
tares that have hindered the true wheat from growing and producing to
its fullest potential and value.  Some of these tares will be blown
away as if by a fierce wind.
    Now, My people will begin to do great last
days exploits.  It shall be noted that there is a people who believe in
a supernatural God and that they are co-laboring with Him.  I will give
you great favor in the sight of all the people of the earth.  You, will
begin to do all that I have declared over you in My Word.  Signs will
follow you because you believe, you will cast out demons, lay hands on
the sick, drink any deadly thing and speak with tongues all in My name. 
Plaques, disasters and unknown germs will die, for you are kept in My
Presence.  They can not stand in 'Our Presence.'
    I have said once, and now again, that the
sun will come out from behind the clouds of darkness for a season and
shine ever so brightly.  As dark clouds loom overhead, it's okay, for it
is full and will pour on My people a fresh anointing.  For I Am the Lord
and I change not.  The sun will shine afterward and illuminate you for
Me!
 
Love,

Pastor D.

Ears to Hear

Good Morning,

    I Am awakening as one from slumber and I
will shout like a mighty man full of My new wine.  I will call to My
own, as a woman who is in travail.  Come back to Me with your whole undivided love and affection
I Am crying in your ears, for I remember how you tenderly loved Me.  I
know how you were thoroughly enamored with My love and kindness.  There
was a time when nothing else would satisfy your longings, except Me. 
Now I have seen you looking with longings towards other lovers.  Those
who promise satisfaction, but is like a flickering lamp.  It cannot
supply you with warmth or fulfill the longings of your heart.  I Am the
only love, that will completely fulfill you.
    Yet, you have worshiped the works of your
own hands.  You revel in your own creations.  You have become to involved
with idle, fruitless deeds of life.  The time and the change of season
has come and you would have missed it.  Yet, I have kept My hands on you.
    I have brought My people through the fires
and I will refine them as silver and test them as gold is tried. 
Purifying you, so that you may run the race weightlessly.  This has been
the training ground
for the next level of testings, that will come upon the face of the
earth.  You will need to be quick and sharp.  That is why I Am burning
from you the weighted impurities.  With the coming disasters and chaos
you will see that you have doubled in power and in purity.  I have
placed you in a spiritual boot-camp, with difficult training and
exercise of your faith.  It has been necessary, so that you will make
progress on the dangerous heights of this next level of testing and
trouble.  You will turn your face to Me and rejoice!  You will know that
I have become your strength, and your invincible army.  I will set you
up securely, even on the high places.  You will be glad in Me.  You will
stir up and rekindle the flames for Me.  Your light will burn bright,
while you lead others from their darken state.  Those who would not
yield to Me will begin to seek refuge from their storms.  They will find
priests of the Lord, ministers of God, flaming fires of righteousness.
Love,

Pastor D.
