Good morning,
     I look and see the real thing, I know what others can only see darkly.  I see and I know the "why" and the "how" of the places of wilderness that you have been wandering through.  These things are not of My making or of My plans, but I knew the way that you would choose and take.  Now in order to get back what you once held dear, there must come a brokeness.  I will cause a new you to arise from the ashes.  Yes, these dry bones can live.  I wait for you to let go and let me build and restore you.
     First, I want you to recognize that there is more to you than you even understand.  When I tell you to do something, know that I have fully equipped you and given you everything necessary to carry out My command to the full measure.  So, if I tell you to stop doing something to make you whole, know that you have the power to carry that out to completion.  When I tell you to do something those orders can be fully accomplished as well.  Not only have I given you the tools and equipment within, but outside too.  There stands a heavenly host to aid and assist that I may receive all glory.  No more excuses!  You have so much help.  Understand that the enemy loves nothing more to hear anything other than My Word precede from your mouth.  Do not give him any place.  Close this door, put a watch on your mouth, so that your words are acceptable to Me.  I Am watching for My Word and We stand ready to perform My Word.  Know that the enemy also stands ready to perform any word other than Mines.  Be diligent!  Stand ready to be obedient to My commands!  Stop trying to figure Me out and reason Me away.  Stay vigilant, stay ready, stay watchful, stay alert and awake.  Do not be lulled to sleep by circumstances, for they can be devised to keep you off balanced, but if you let Me I will use them to help you walk in My insight, to become stronger and wise.  You are not alone, I have given you everything to come in line wit My image.
 
     “Arise [from spiritual depression to a new life], shine [be radiant with the glory and brilliance of the Lord]; for your light has come, And the glory and brilliance of the Lord has risen upon you." (Is. 60:1) 
     "Be sober [well balanced and self-disciplined], be alert and cautious at all times.  That enemy of yours, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion [fiercely hungry], seeking someone to devour." (1 Peter 5:8)
     "And we know [with great confidence] that God [who is deeply concerned about us] causes all things to work together [as a plan] for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to His plan and purpose." (Rom. 8:28)
 
Love,

Good morning,
 
     My family is secured in Me.  My plans are not always seen or known by My children, but that is where trust is developed.  As you learn to know My love, you will begin to understand that I have always had a plan to cause you to succeed.  The same words were spoken to My servant Joshua and they are still what precedes My children being above only.  I said, if, My book, My Word shall not depart out of your mouth, and if you meditate in My Word day and night, so that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it, then you will make your way prosperous and then you shall have good success.  As you devote yourself to Me, know that I Am devoted to you.  
     I Am a Father that desires to see His children enjoy all that has been given to them.  You are being trained to "not" allow yourself to put your trust in the seen, and temporal.  This grace is gained as you meditate, then you will observe to do My Word.  I Am the good Shepherd and I know the way so stay with the fold that I have placed you in, that is where your safety, deliverance, provision and your growth comes from.  As the days progress, the enemy recognizes that his time is running out here on earth, so he has turned up his assaults and attacks against My sheep.  He desires to separate them from their strength.  I have placed you in a "hiding place" right out in the open, it is where he knows your help comes from, he is using one of the oldest tactics known in battle, "to divide and conquer".  Do not allow him to isolate you in your own thinking or by your actions.  Stay in the hiding place, it is where I am giving you everything necessary to become like Me.  So the next time that he tries to attack he will run into another "Me". You will have awaken in My likeness, for in your adversity you are developing into the very image of your Father.  Right here in this place where all seems difficult is where you will gain the eye of the eagle and see from the perspective of your Father, and grow and gain the new found strength.  You will no longer be short sighted, but have developed the ability to see from afar.  Here your new wings for soaring are developing.  Knowing that I am working even this "thing" out for your good.  So stay, stand, and say what My Word says, that is what will happen as you meditate in My Word day and night.  This is what is required in order for you to have the good success that I have set up for you.
 
     "So we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are unseen; for the things which are visible are temporal [just brief and fleeting], but the things which are invisible are everlasting and imperishable." (2 Corin. 4:18)
     "This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall read [and meditate on] it day and night, so that you may be careful to do [everything] in accordance with all that is written in it; for then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will be successful." (Jos.1:8)
     "You are my hiding place; You, Lord, protect me from trouble; You surround me with songs and shouts of deliverance.  Selah (pause and calmly think on that)" (Ps. 32:7)
 
Love,

Follow-god

 

Good morning, 

     This is a song, that was sung in the Spirit  as we were out in the deep of worship: 
 
     This is what it feels like, follow Me, follow Me all the way.  Even though your mind might be saying other things follow Me, follow Me all the way.  Even though your flesh may want to go another way follow Me, follow Me all the way.  This is what it feels like going into places unknown to you.  Follow Me, follow Me into the unknown.  Follow Me, follow Me there I have laid a table for you.  There I have placed before you everything you need.  Follow Me, follow Me all the way.  
     Just by these simple yet profound verses that our Father wants to take us to levels and depths in Him that we have not yet explored.  He woos us to follow Him without thinking out where we are headed.  Follow means to pursue ardently, to come close behind, and to run after.  We have to trust and love Him more than our own self preservation in order to do so.  I have been challenged over and over again to do so, by letting go and falling into His strong, capable, and loving arms.  If you are at a place in your walk where the signs are obscured and a little hazy, and you are unsure where you are being taken, trust Abba.  He has shown that He can be trusted.  Trust simply means to put your hope and confidence in Him, to make Him your refuge, your place of protection.  Just remember how far He has brought you and how much stronger you are because of the "way" He brought you.  He protected you all the way.  You are still here and mostly "sound of mind".  Know that His love is unsearchable, it can’t be described or categorized.  He really loves, and He can love the "mess" out of us if we allow Him too.  Stop trying to lead, follow Him, you’ll end up in a good place. 
 
     “As for God, His way is perfect, the Word of the Lord is tried: He is a buckler (a protector, like the scaly hide of the crocodile) to all them that trust in Him” (2 Sam. 22:31)
     “From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the Rock that is higher than I.” (Ps. 61:2)
     “So let us know and become personally acquainted with Him; let us press on (follow) to know and understand fully the greatness of the Lord (to honor, heed, and deeply cherish Him). His appearing is prepared and is certain as the dawn, and He will come to us (in salvation) like the heavy rain, like the spring rain watering the earth.” (Hos. 6:3)
 
Love,
 
Pastor D.

Good morning,
 
     If you will let Me, if you will allow Me, something beyond your comprehension happens every time that you encounter Me.  A little of you dies every time, so that more of Me might be seen in you, and you are able to walk away from the grave.  The grave, that place where those things have died, those things that kept you in a prison, and walk into the new things that I Am calling you to.  A new way of thinking, a new way of feeling, a new way of being.  If you would let Me, if you will allow Me you will step into loving, loving to live.  Yes, even though you die, life will come from the ashes, a more powerful you, reflecting who I Am.  As you allow that death to take place and a new you arises, you will be more than able, that is the person who is able to walk out My call and My purpose.  You will walk right into the destiny that I designed for you.  As you die to yourself, and live once again, the love that I have put on the inside of you will be shed abroad.  This love will not just work for changing you but for everyone that I call you to says the Lord.  For many people you may be the only savior they see or know, and as you allow the love to flow, there will come forth a new anointing to break every yoke off of you and them.  Allow the power and you allow the power of love and that death to take place, more of Me will be seen in every moment, and you experience the best life yet.  This is what happens as you draw closer to Me, you die so that I might be seen and glorified.  So allow that death and glory over those graves, and leave them behind as you walk into victory says the Spirit of grace and mercy.
     Yes, for too long you have walked around in grave clothes, too long you have walked around in mourning apparel, says the Spirit of grace, and I have called you to more.  I have designed you for more, to live like "today" is the first day of your life.  Every moment you should live openly before the world declaring that I Am a good God, because you are no longer wearing those grave clothes, bound by the old man.  You have abandoned those old familiar ways, actions, and reactions, and now you live fresh and anew says the Lord.  So let the world see that I Am a good Father, that I Am faithful.  A God that gives new life says the Lord.  Not bound by anything no matter where it comes from, those superficial things that tormented you in the past, only living for Me says the Lord.  Give Me glory in every part of your life and I will be glorified says the Lord. die and you will really live.
     "For if you are living according to the [impulses of the] flesh, you are going to die.  But if [you are living] by the [power of the Holy] Spirit you are habitually putting to death the sinful deeds of the body, you will [really] live forever. (Rom. 8:13)
     "For His divine power has bestowed on us [absolutely] everything necessary for [a dynamic spiritual] life and godliness, through [a] true and personal knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence.  For by these He has bestowed on us His precious and magnificent promises [of inexpressible value], so that by them you may escape from the immoral freedom that is in the world because of disreputable desire, and become sharers of the divine nature." (2 Peter 1:3-4)
     "We have therefore been buried with Him through baptism into death, so that just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory and power of the Father, we too might walk habitually in newness of life [abandoning our old ways]." (Rom. 6:4)

Good morning,
 
     There is a war all around you and I am contending for you.  There is a war cry and the enemy is afraid for he recognizes you are dressed in My armor, and you are ready for battle, equipped and ready for war.  There is a war cry going out, and all the world knows that there is something going on, and those who are not My own are confused and afraid.  Now says the Spirit of grace and mercy all that rests upon you is a holy fire, and a holy fervor for your Father and the kingdom.  You will not quit, you will not give up, you will not back down.  There is a war cry going on in the heavenly sphere, and as I contend, you contend also for the faith.  You will never back down again for now you recognize, now you know who you really are, you are of the "God-class".  The revealing of being made in My image has dawned upon you and you understand what it means to walk in the foot steps that I have already laid.  The real you is stepping forward, the real you is coming out.  It is a coming out day for you, and you recognize who you really are, dressed in My armor, ready for battle, and you will not quit, you will not give up, but you keep pressing on.  The battle is raging, but you are also raging, for you see that all that I have given to make you the victor.  Recognize this day saith the Lord, there is resting upon you a fresh new fire, a fresh new anointing, a fresh new desire to go forth and gain momentum as you ascend.  Understand that I have been there with you all of the way, and just about the time you were about to give up, I anointed you fresh from on high, so now you say I will arise, I will arise.  I will arise and I will do exactly what you have called me to do.   I will arise, I will arise I will pursue and I will overtake, and recover all, that is the sound I hear from My people now.  I say yes now, yes to that.   Yes, arise, from the circumstances and situations and all that they have brought you to.  Go and shine forth in My light that is becoming brighter because you are walking in My anointing, you are walking in My footsteps, you have awaken in My mind.  
 
     "As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness." (Ps.17:15)
     "Beloved, while I was making every effort to write you about our common salvation, I was compelled to write to you [urgently] appealing that you fight strenuously for [the defense of] the faith which was once for all handed down to the saints [the faith that is the sum of Christian belief that was given verbally to believers]." (Jude verse 3)
     "For His divine power has bestowed on us [absolutely] everything necessary for [a dynamic spiritual] life and godliness, through true and personal knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence." (2 Peter 1:3)

Confusion
 
Good Morning,
 
     Keep your eyes stayed on me and My Word.  There are numerous distractions of the age that the enemy is using to cause confusion and discontent to My children.  Those who have been straying off course will end up in a ditch, but it will be disguised as a broad way, a free way.  This is not the time to entertain thoughts that lead to murmuring against My provision.  Your thoughts become words that join with doubt and unbelief from the wicked one and his cohorts.  As you give voice to those thoughts, you give power to the enemy, and open doors in your life for him to come and fulfill his plan of destruction.  It begins slowly, and then gives birth to fulfilling his plan of separation from Me.  I have given to you every thing to withstand him.  I have said to withstand the devil, first you do this by drawing closer to Me, secondly, resist him, by saying what I have given you to say.  My words are the most powerful weapon against him.  Do not be found saying what he says over your life, words are seeds.  Your words are seeds that will sprout into a plant that will choke My Word from your heart and leave behind a root of bitterness.  There is an assignment from the enemy and his allies to cause you to self destruct and place blame on Me and the Kingdom.  Be wise to the ways of the enemy, you are not ignorant of his devices.
     Open your eyes and see Me, your good Father, who loves you, and no matter what you go through I am helping you to become more like Me.  I Am good and you really have not comprehended how good My mercy has been over your life.  The covering that I have placed over you is like an invisible, invincible shield.  The only one that can cause this shield to be inoperative and ineffective is you, by giving heed to words of doubt and unbelief.  As long as you continue to yield to My Word, you are under My wings, you are never fully aware of all that is being provided by yielding to Me.  Here you stay safe, the arrows that are aimed at you they never get to the full potential that the enemy desires to destroy you with.  I tell you that there is a divine assignment from heaven for your protection and provision here in the secret place.  Do not think that you are beyond My care because you experience some troubles in this life, but know that it is never to the degree that your enemy wants.  Every time he wants to steal, kill, and destroy you.  My thoughts are good towards you, always.  I want you to open your eyes and see and understand my goodness towards you.  I have kept you, preserved you, loved you, been faithful to you, been longsuffering to you.  I Am good even now.  If I told you everything that I do daily, you still would not appreciate the value of My goodness and love for you.  I Am a good Father to all who will allow Me to be.  I Am your love.
 
     "I am the Door; anyone who enters through Me will be saved [and will live forever], and will go in and out [freely], and find pasture (spiritual security). The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance [to the full, till it overflows]" (John 10:9-10)
     "But this I call to mind, Therefore I have hope.  It is because of the Lord’s lovingkindnesses that we are not consumed, Because His [tender] compassions never fail.  They are new every morning; Great and beyond measure is Your faithfulness." (Lam. 3:21-23)
     "Put on the full armor of God [for His precepts are like the splendid armor of a heavily-armed soldier], so that you may be able to [successfully] stand up against all the schemes and the strategies and the deceits of the devil.  For our struggle is not against flesh and blood [contending only with physical opponents], but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this [present] darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly (supernatural) places.  Therefore, put on the complete armor of God, so that you will be able to [successfully] resist and stand your ground in the evil day [of danger], and having done everything [that the crisis demands], to stand firm [in your place, fully prepared, immovable, victorious]." (Eph. 6:11-13)

Good morning,
 
     I see colors, colors of fabrics.  The Spirit of the Lord is saying, every end that is frayed, that is torn I see and hear.  I will hem and make whole, I can sew those different tapestries of colors together to make one strong mighty remnant for My glory.  I do it so that none of the torn, frayed parts can take glory in anything that they have done, but all glory belongs to Me because I have hemmed, mended and made whole, and I have brought together tattered and torn ends as you allow Me too.  For I will take the uniqueness from that one piece of garment and hem it to the uniqueness of the other part of the garment so that it might become one, so that all glory and all honor by something so different being knitted together will go unto Me.  I caused those pieces to work together as if they have always been that way so that the praise will always be mine, and cause you to be humbled by what I do.  Allow Me to bring those pieces together and cut away those frayed edges in your life and those torn parts, those things that have been ripped apart where you tried for years to mend and make whole.  Allow Me, and  I hear you say "how do I allow?"  You let go and stand in faith and believe that I am well able to heal and make whole.  I see every part that is broken and frayed long before anyone pointed it out to you and I Am making you whole right now.  As you allow Me and as you let Me, it depends upon the degree of submitting to My Word how quick it is done.  As you let Me, you will be amazed at how quick the process really is.  So allow Me.  I see every brokenness, I see every addiction, I see every hurt, every wound, I see every emotion that is not like Me.  I see those things and those are the frayed edges that I am cutting off to bring together the whole pieces, know that when you do, when you allow, when you let Me, you will see the amazement of the wonder of your God.  You will stand and see My glory and you will worship Me in humility recognizing that except for My hand in your life and in the lives of the others that I am knitting together that all would remain separate.  Yes, there is nothing that you can do, nothing.  So glorify Me right now where you are in your brokenness, in your frayed edges, in your tornness give Me glory for I am working as you let Me.  I am doing a matchless work.  That is why I say continue, continue, yes stay in Me and you will see that the end is greater than the beginning.
 
     "and not holding fast to the head [of the body, Jesus Christ], from whom the entire body, supplied and knit together by its joints and ligaments, grows with the growth [that can come only] from God." (Col. 2:19)
     "From Him the whole body [the church, in all its various parts], joined and knitted firmly together by what every joint supplies, when each part is working properly, causes the body to grow and mature, building itself up in [unselfish] love" (Ephes. 4:16)

Footsteps-660-jpg1
 
Good morning,
 
     These places have not been traveled by man, that is why you have to lean heavily upon Me.  These marks, these steps, I know, for I have gone here before to chart a course for you.  In order that you might follow, and in that lose some of yourself every time, and find more of Me, and become uniquely different and touched by Me.  You will be ready to affect your atmosphere, your environment, and ready to change the places where you live, where you work, those things that you affect for My kingdom.  This can only be accomplished while you sit in My presence, because there you are changed into My image and you become more and more like Me.  Every thing you think, every thing you see, every thing you feel changes from that moment.  You begin to think different about the way things are supposed to be and as other people talk to you, you see things clearly.  You understand My voice, you see others from a different perspective, that is from being in My presence and that is why I Am constantly saying draw closer to Me.  There is more to Me than you could ever imagine, draw close to Me so that you might be touched by Me, so that I can affect every area of your being.  Do not stand on the outside, never stand on the outside where you will only get the leftovers of someone else's glory while touching Me.  But if you will come deeper and walk into those secret places, I will begin to uncover the things on the inside of you that the enemy has covered up for years, the gold, the silver, the valuable you that is on the inside and you will be so amazed at who you really are.  It is beyond your concept and imaginations, it is beyond your comprehension, what you were made to be.  As you visit Me and stay in that secret place you will be more sensitive, and the more you do and the longer you stay the more change is affected in you, and when you walk from that place you will be like Moses to your generation where the cloud of glory is so strong around you that many will fall out from your presence. This is what I have provided for My children in the days that are ahead says the Spirit of grace and mercy.  So I Am asking you, I Am imploring you to draw closer to Me like your life depends on it.  Press in, there is more of Me than you know.
 
     "As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness." (Ps.17:15)
     "You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; In Your right hand there are pleasures forevermore." (Ps. 16:11)
     "The secret [of the wise counsel] of the Lord is for those who fear Him, And He will let them know His covenant and reveal to them [through His word] its [deep, inner] meaning." (Ps. 25:14)

Good morning,
 
     Fire is falling from heaven!  This kind of fire burns away things that have been tough and stuck on you for years.  This fire causes deliverances to happen in your life.  This kind of fire removes sickness and disease that has attached itself to your body.  That is the fire falling from heaven right now, it is the Shekinah glory.  It is the fire that led the Israelite's, it is falling in and upon you for cleansing.  This fire will lead you into a deeper and more consecrated walk with your Father.  You will no longer be a surface Christian dweller, getting by with stale manna.  A desire for the new will spring forth from the fire, making a clear path in the wilderness and the desert.
     The brightness from the fire assist those who were once blind to be able to see from obscurity and from darkness, for now even your darkness will be light to you.  You will burn through chains that have bound you for years.  Fires turn decaying and dead things into ashes, thus making room for a new environment, causing greater nutrients to the soil.  You arise new from the ashes and made most beautiful.  This will provide better growing and growth for you.  This fire will eliminate the weeds that have been choking your life and tons of "ites" or insect-like spirits that keep your mind wandering.  You will find that you will thrive, live taller and stretch out towards the destiny that has awaited you.  I Am controlling this fire to bring about the very best in you.  Clearing and cleaning My garden for deeper and better fruit.  Bringing forth the scent of holiness.  Planting, growing, and harvesting a great good! 
     I will lead you by this fire into My promises that I have spoken to you over and over again.  This is the fresher environment made for clarity of mind, eyes, hearing, and health.  You will experience wholeness, spirit, soul, and body.
 
     "The [presence of the] Lord was going before them by day in a pillar (column) of cloud to lead them along the way, and in a pillar of fire by night to give them light, so that they could travel by day and by night. (Ex. 13:21)
     "Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness: he is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous." (Ps. 112:4)
     "He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end." (Eccles. 3:11)
