My children continually hurting one another, fighting and bickering over small temporal things that have been destroying their abilities to represent the Kingdom.

 
 
Good morning,
   

  How many times have we heard something and interpreted it out of context that may have caused us plenty of difficulties?  You know the familiar conversation, it goes something like this……" You said ———–!!!!" and the person who was speaking says:…."No, that's not what I said!!!!!" Has that happened to you lately?
    Do you remember the "telephone game" we learned as children, where we would start a conversation by saying a simple sentence and it would be repeated to the next person and on to the next and it would go on until the last person would repeat what they heard?  It would begin by saying something like, "my dog is a black and brown shepherd," by the time it got to the last person it might be, "the shepherd is brown where the black dog bit him."  Well, I learned several things from that exercise: #1 – you can not listen to gossip, it is never complete in truth; #2 – people do not listen intently and last but not least, I came to the conclusion that when you speak there is a force that causes our conversation at times to be misdirected or confused. Ephesians 2:2 makes reference to the "prince of the power of the air (in which you once walked. You were following the ways of this world [influenced by this present age], in accordance with the prince of the power of the air (Satan), the spirit who is now at work in the disobedient [the unbelieving, who fight against the purposes of God).  Later on in Ephesians 6:12, we have a little more insight into this, "prince of the power of air".  Listen, it reads, "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places".  So we can see that the devil has a rank of delegated authority, and one of those evil spirits' jobs is the "airwaves".  His sole purpose is to scramble up our communication lines.  He keeps the atmosphere charged with misunderstandings, misinterpretations, dirty filters, poor comprehension, and selfish hearing so that we are constantly dealing with offenses, unforgiveness, bitterness, hatred, anger, deception, and all other kinds of little foxes that spoil our growth in our ability to hear clearly.  I am not saying this is the case every time, but we are told to know the ways of our enemy so that we can be victorious all the time.  We take authority over this low-ranking prince of the power of the air and we say that you will not hinder our ability to hear clearly and or communicate effectively.  We will keep the garden of our heart free of offenses, bitterness, malice, unforgiveness, etc.

Hear what the Spirit says:
    
    "For I am coming for My bride and she must no longer allow spots, wrinkles, or blemishes to continue to grow on her.  These hearing problems have caused so many blemishes in My church.  My children continually hurting one another, fighting and bickering over small temporal things that have been destroying their abilities to represent the Kingdom.  You must cease the wars among My beloved, and direct your attention to the enemy, who pits you against one another.  You must see and understand that a house divided cannot stand, and will end up in self-slaughter.  Stop!  My children, I have given to you all the power over all the power of the enemy, now use your power against the enemy and not against each other.  Love, love, and prefer one another.  Be merciful, tenderhearted, and kind.  Give allowances to one another.  Every time you are hurt by each other, quickly forgive.  Those seeds of forgiveness will return to you on swift wings of My favor to you.  You will grow twice as much because of the mercy you extend.  You will become more mature and more sensitive to Me and My ways you will be alert to follow Me.  This is the way of the Spirit.  Following the high road of love will always cause you to be on top, it is the steps to prosperity that will bring you to good.  Love will mature my bride and keep for her an atmosphere of miracles, wholeness, soundness, and true prosperity.  Love is the atmosphere where I, in My glory abounds.
 
    "Be kind and helpful to one another, tender-hearted [compassionate, understanding], forgiving one another [readily and freely], just as God in Christ also forgave." (Eph. 4:32)
 
    "For the whole Law [concerning human relationships] is fulfilled in one precept, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself [that is, you shall have an unselfish concern for others and do things for their benefit].”  But if you bite and devour one another [in bickering and strife], watch out that you [along with your entire fellowship] are not consumed by one another." (Gal. 5:14-15)
 
    "That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish." (Eph. 5:27)

 The spirit of discouragement and disillusionment has tried to deceive many of My children.  It is a strong, obscure, and blurred spirit.

Good morning,
 
    The spirit of discouragement and disillusionment has tried to deceive many of My children.  It is a strong, obscure, and blurred spirit.  He has lied to them and told My children that I have forgotten them.  The lie that he perpetrates is that I will not do what I have promised to do.  Promises that I have spoken from My Word or in times of intimate fellowship, he lies by trying to divert your attention to the temporal things.  Do not give any attention to him My children.  If you entertain his lies they will find a way into your heart and destroy and entangle all that We have built together.  Do not allow the "evil one" to plant snares and tares in our garden of love.  Now is the time to draw close and call forth My Word, so that you become inaccessible to the darts of the wicked one.
    Yes, it is a time of tribulation for this world system for I Am bringing forth its quality.  It is overdue, because of the unjust weights and balances, and the great deception that has continued for decades upon decades.  I have heard and I have hearkened to the cries of My servants, those who are watchmen on My walls.  They have cried for justice and I Am responding.  I Am shaking every system that is not built upon My foundations.  Some of these systems have found their way into My house.  That cannot be.  I Am uncovering and exposing all that does not originate in Me and with My plans.
    My children that give a cup of cold water in My name will receive all that I have promised.  I have not forgotten one seed sown in My name by faith.  Harvest times are by My timetable, for I Am Lord of the harvest.  I will repay.  I know all that you have suffered in My name and because of your stand in My name.  I have been touched by your heartaches and all that troubles you, and I will come and rescue you.  You can be sure of Me and My word, it will stand through all times.  I will lift you out of despair, by My Mighty outstretched Arm.  No one will be able to take you from that secure place.  Nothing is too difficult for Me, I will heal and refresh you again, setting you in an enlarged place.
 
    "Since we consider and look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen; for the things that are visible are temporal (brief and fleeting), but the things that are invisible are deathless and everlasting." (2 Corin. 4:18)
    
    "Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do.  He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him.  When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. (John 8:44)
 
    "He brought me forth also into a large place; He was delivering me because He was pleased with me and delighted in me. (Ps. 18:19)

Come away and draw close to me, I want to prepare you for the difficult days ahead. 

The-Importance-of-Walking-With-God-.
 
Good morning,
 
    Come away and draw close to me, I want to prepare you for the difficult days ahead.  Many of my dearest little ones will be caught off guard because they refuse to listen to My voice, they have been hearing the voices of many false prophets.  They are saying, "all is well, and you have nothing to be warned about."  Yet, I have placed watchmen on the walls, who have seen the perils from afar, and have been declaring to all that will have ears to hear, to hear what the Spirit is saying.  No, do not regulate your life by fear, you must always live by faith, trusting My Word.  You should be familiar with the chamber of My room, where I reveal and make known all secrets to My holy ones.  My Word is true, all of it is true.  It is your map and clearly shows where we are and where we are headed.  It is all good to those who have put their trust in Me.  Warnings are not to bring fear, but in order that you may be aware.  Your preparation should be to become sensitive to My voice, get used to hearing the sound of Me.  I will lead you to the still and peaceful waters, even in the midst of the storms of life.  I Am your hiding place, your safe haven.  So don't be dismayed when you see what will come upon the earth.  It has always been coming to this.  Those who have made me their Refuge will see the pressure rising and building over the wicked and the evil, but it will not be able to touch My faithful ones.  I have been a Shield to all who know Me as a Warrior and to all who have allowed Me to fight for them in past battles.  Wake up to the cry of My prophets that run with My Word, you will recognize My voice.  I Am all that is desired and needed by My loves, a strong fortress to them, while the rich have trusted in their wealth as their high wall.  Everything that has been erected and built by all other gods will come down, every high place that was built by this Babylon system will experience a crash.  Men that doubt Me and My Word have already built up a new system to lean and trust on.  Their wisdom will be exposed as complete folly, yet they will only see it has higher intelligence.
     In the midst of these perilous times, water, rain, and the wind will blow My loves from their places of obscurity.  They will become vibrant once again with new life to spring up with fresh wells of revelation, insight, worship, and understanding of the times and seasons.  Arising with abilities that will bypass their natural capacity to sustain and cause them to prosper even in the time of famines.  They will dream with a clearer definition and awaken with understanding.  The visions they see will give them deeper insight into the next steps that must be taken to bring them to a place where they are inaccessible to the climate around them.   Their worship will come from those deep wells that have been untapped, but now the thirst for more will require them to draw more.  Sharpen your blade, strength requires you to be sharp now!  The wisdom you receive from Me will help you to succeed.  I have sent My armies from heaven to be at your aid, for My holiness will be displayed by My righteous ones.  You, My loves will be My pride and My glory, even in the middle of difficult times!
 
    “Awake, O north wind, And come, south wind [blow softly upon my garden]; Make my garden breathe out fragrance, [for the one in whom my soul delights], Let its spices flow forth. Let my beloved come into his garden And eat its choicest fruits.”(S.O.S. 4:16)
 
    "I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress, My God, in whom I trust [with great confidence, and on whom I rely]!” (Ps. 91:2)
 
    "For the wisdom of this world is foolishness (absurdity, stupidity) before God; for it is written [in Scripture], “[He is] The one who catches the wise and clever in their craftiness;” (1 Corin. 3:19)

Good morning,
 
    Listen My children, you are Our great hope.  We have invested in you everything that We are.  We have given all so that you might be our image-bearers in this world.  You say purify me.  Every time I go to burn you, to purify you, it does not appear, the way that you want.  Every prophet, every man and woman that I burned on the fire to purify them for My purpose, it did not look like they thought it should.  So I Am saying to you now, purification, refining, I choose the process.  I choose how much to burn to bring you to the place of perfection so that you might fulfill your calling and your purpose.  I choose says the Lord, whether you are like Paul or Stephen, whether you are like John the Baptist, or John the Revelator.  I choose as your Lord, whether you are an Elijah, or an Ezekiel, or like Jeremiah.  I choose whether you are Joseph, I make the choice, and then I begin to do a work in you, but you must allow me, you must yield with My plan.  Every time I start a process, you cry about the fire burning too much and I must take you out because I recognize you would be totally devasted, not consumed for service.  So, I want to save and restore and bring you to the place that you perform and function according to the design and purpose that I created and made you for. 
    So allow me and work with Me, so that you might come forth as pure gold, allow the purification and the refining process to take place on the inside of you.  There are things that you must do and others that you must not do in order to walk the path that I have called you to.  There are things you should not touch and places you cannot go because I call you to a higher degree of anointing, there are things you must do separate from every other person that walks on this earth because I have anointed you for a season and a time to do the things that others cannot do.  I know you and have charted a course for you.  Allow Me to do those things and work with Me, and you will come forth as a vessel of honor in My house.  Do not draw back from the fire, I recognize that these changes hurt.  Those things that I Am doing and working on the inside of you are not a comfortable situation but it will bring you forth as a threshing instrument.  Let Me do the work in you, let Me purify you, let Me cause you to stand in My strength.  I have made a choice to choose you as vessels of honor, not to dishonor.  Come and co-labor with Us, and I will exalt you in due time.
   
    "For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building." (1 Corin. 3:9)
 
    "But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour. If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work." (2 Tim. 2:20-21)
 
    "Yet, O Lord, You are our Father; We are the clay, and You our Potter, And we all are the work of Your hand." (Is. 64:8)

 I can be depended upon to resolve every unresolved situation, I am working them out for your good.

Good morning,
   
    I can be depended upon to resolve every unresolved situation, I am working them out for your good.  I know that while you are walking through the wilderness it does not look like the answer will ever come, but I know all things.  I Am omnipotent, omniscient, and all-knowing, I Am bringing you to the desired promised land that I spoke to you years and years ago, as you hold on to My word.  For this is the time and the season that I Am lifting and exalting all those who have trusted in Me, and you will stand in the land of your promise, right now in the land of the living.  You will see how good I really Am to those who trust Me for I can be depended upon to do exactly what I said I would do.  Remember and recount the things that my servants of old went through to come to the place of faithfully knowing Me as their Father.  Many fail because their trust begins to dwindle away due to enduring tests and trials, but trust Me.  I can be depended upon, I Am faithful to My word.  I will bring you from the place of Exodus to the place of your Promised Land, and you will walk in it and see that it is larger than you thought it could be.  It is greater than what you hoped for, I go above and beyond all that you dreamed or even think.  Many naysayers are around saying that it cannot be or it will not happen, but I say even as darkness covers the earth, great darkness and dense darkness, glory shall surround my people.  They shall arise and awaken to the light, they shall know because I will guide them by My great light.  There is nothing too difficult or hard for Me to do.  I Am fashioning and forming you into the desired one that I called you to be and greater works shall you do in these days that are ahead.  It will be like the book of Acts has repeated itself for My children shall walk in the glory, love, and power that I have called them to.  Right in the midst of darkness, for in darkness, great light shall shine and many shall come running for they will recognize that I Am God and I still live and that I came to set My children free and live in their inheritance.
 
    "He brought me forth also into a large place; he delivered me, because he delighted in me." (Ps. 18:19) 
 
    “Then your light will break out like the dawn, And your healing (restoration, new life) will quickly spring forth; Your righteousness will go before you [leading you to peace and prosperity], The glory of the Lord will be your rear guard." (Is. 58:8)
 
    "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father." (John 14:12)

A humble man or woman I will not despise.  I will lift them up to heights unknown, but the proud I resist.

 
Good morning,
 
    A humble man or woman I will not despise.  I will lift them up to heights unknown, but the proud I resist.  Those who stand in their own might, in their own wisdom, in their own strength, I Am not pleased with.  The humble recognize they need Me, and depend upon My help.  I will come along beside them and hold them up, they will stand when the arrogant and proud fall.  This is the season that you will see My great hand upon the humble. 
    Know that there is a season of a great falling away.  Many of those who called upon My name, they will not run with Me any longer, for they will not recognize that I have shifted.  They will not understand that I have shifted into a new gear that is taking My children to another place, another dimension, where they see Me, hear Me, and understand Me.  They have become hard of seeing and hearing, they are still bound in those ways of their own making, bound in their flesh, bound in their minds and I Am now calling My children up higher.  Calling them to a place where they rest in My power, My ability, My might, and My grace, knowing Me for who I Am.  Not falling into ways carved by pride, lack of wisdom, and lack of hunger and desperation for My ways.  I push against pride, I stand against pride for pride caused My angels to fall.  Pride is foolish and deceitful, it carries you down to the pit of hell, but the humble are those who recognize their only strength is in Me.  They will rise up, I will exalt them and stretch their borders and lengthen their stakes.
    This is the day that separation is coming to My house.  Understand that it has already begun.  Some have stood and looked and understood what is happening, but the separation has begun, sheep from goat, wheat from tare.  I have allowed the growing of these things together but now, says the Lord, I Am coming for My Bride.  My bride is being washed without spot or wrinkle, My bride who is separate, holy unto Me, she looks different, talks different, she responds differently.  I Am coming, says the Lord, I am coming for My church, and My church, My true church, My remnant church they are being prepared, being made ready.  They are hungry and thirsty, they recognize everything going on around about them but they march on.  The darkness that has come on the earth doesn't make them stubble, for they knew this day would come.  They are shining brighter, their light is not growing dim in the midst of darkness, they burn on, they march on because they recognize nothing can hinder them, nothing can stop them.  For this is what they have been called to and the desperation in their hearts is because they want to come home and be with Me and I Am making way and making plans for that to happen soon.  So prepare your hearts and your minds, stand firm, stand ready, stand watchful and be ever ready.  For no man knows the hour nor the moment that I shall crack that sky so I call My children to be ever ready.  Be ever ready, says the Lord, for I love you and I have prepared a place for you, and I Am ready.  For I delight in My children, those who are My own, they will never forsake Me nor turn their eyes to another lover, they are faithful to Me, and I Am faithful too.
 
    "All the nations will be gathered before Him [for judgment]; and He will separate them from one another, as a shepherd separates his sheep from the goats;  and He will put the sheep on His right [the place of honor], and the goats on His left [the place of rejection].  “Then the King will say to those on His right, ‘Come, you blessed of My Father [you favored of God, appointed to eternal salvation], inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world." (Matt. 25:32-34)
 
    "For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the Lord shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee." (Is. 60:2)
 
    "But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble." (James 4:6)
 
    "So that [in turn] He might present the church to Himself in glorious splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that she would be holy [set apart for God] and blameless." (Eph. 5:27)

 I have warned my people in advance through my Word about the End-Times and the assault that would come to try and bring discouragement. 

Cold-love
 
Good morning,
 
    I have warned my people in advance through my Word about the End-Times and the assault that would come to try and bring discouragement.  Each assignment is to try and seduce my children into a slumber or catatonic condition where they are slow to act upon My word.  The aim is to beguile My people away from Me.  This will cause many of the great ambassadors, generals, and strong ones in My House to grow cold.  This coldness of their heart will come in varying degrees, you have beheld some of it with your own eyes.  My priests committing adultery, fornication, brothers rising up against brothers, daughters against mothers, sons against fathers, here begins the love of many growing cold.  The spirit of Jezebel has been released, it is creeping into every house where doors have been opened.  This Jezebel spirit is manipulative, and a seducer.  You have watched and seen that the spirit has caused a wicked, deceitful, air of immorality.  What is good is often evil spoken of, and what is evil is applauded.  It works with and accompanies the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes, desires that
control the person while making the person "out of control".  Immorality is considered to be normal, for My measuring stick no longer applies.  This is a "pleasure-dominated" generation and it has crept unchecked into My Household because many of My children were being led astray as well.  The spirit of Jezebel is stimulated by the pride of life, it breeds self-righteousness.  Pride will not tolerate being corrected or being taught.  Self-righteousness causes one to become hard of heart and to always think that they are right.  Pharaoh walked in this stronghold.  It does not matter how many miracles were done, he still did what he wanted to do even to his death.  This spirit will delude one into a believable lie and trap them there.  They will think small of everyone else and as this root goes deeper it will become a critical and cynical yeast that will infect many in My House.  Cut it off, by washing on overload with my Word of love.
    That is why I have been calling you to come up higher, so that you may be safe and hidden from the enemy's strategies.  I do not want you to become blind to the ways of the system of the world that is under the sway of the wicked one.  Open your eyes and look and see.  Too many of My people have become entangled with this system and live for things that are brief and fleeting.  The temporal life weighs more on their hearts and minds.  They spend more time on those things that have no eternal value.  Building with wood, hay, and stubble, all of those things that hold very little value and will burn in My Presence.  Quit living only to build bigger and better barns in My Name.  My buildings are souls!  Have I not said that you are My temple, My sanctuary.  I gave all to build living temples.  Stop, and buy of Me gold and silver, that which is costly and valuable to the Kingdom.  Those things have everlasting values.  Come back to Me, and renew your vows by doing My will.  Then your eyes will be opened and you will see all of those "things" are roadblocks and obstacles to My purposes and plans.  Come and build temples with Me!
 
    "For all that is in the world—the lust and sensual craving of the flesh and the lust and longing of the eyes and the boastful pride of life [pretentious confidence in one’s resources or in the stability of earthly things]—these do not come from the Father, but are from the world." (1 John 2:16)
 
    "Now in a large house there are not only vessels and objects of gold and silver, but also vessels and objects of wood and of earthenware, and some are for honorable (noble, good) use and some for dishonorable (ignoble, common).  Therefore, if anyone cleanses himself from these things [which are dishonorable—disobedient, sinful], he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified [set apart for a special purpose and], useful to the Master, prepared for every good work." (2 Tim. 2:20-21)
 
    "According to the [remarkable] grace of God which was given to me [to prepare me for my task], like a skillful master builder I laid a foundation, and now another is building on it. But each one must be careful how he builds on it, for no one can lay a foundation other than the one which is [already] laid, which is Jesus Christ.  But if anyone builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw, each one’s work will be clearly shown [for what it is]; for the day [of judgment] will disclose it, because it is to be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality and character and worth of each person’s work. If any person’s work which he has built [on this foundation, that is, any outcome of his effort] remains [and survives this test], he will receive a reward." (1 Corin. 3:10-14)

As you lift up your hands to Me, I Am lifting up your hands to keep you strengthened.  

 
Good morning,
 
    As you lift up your hands to Me, I Am lifting up your hands to keep you strengthened.  Know that everything that is on your heart right now, I know every concern.  Every concern of every child of Mine, I recognize, and I have all answers.  Hands around about you that are hanging low or need help, out of My great love I exalt all who call out to Me from a sincere heart of longing.  As you lay hands on those that are broken around you, I will lay hands on you.  As you pray, I will send forth My ministering angels to stand in the gap on your behalf.  Whatever seed you sow from your heart of love, I Am multiplying your harvest.  Doors will open, trials and assignments that the enemy has launched against you will be abolished, they will be annihilated, as you lift your hands up.  For I have said in My word, whatever seed you sow, that is the only one I can cause to multiply in your life.  So as you sow seeds of faith towards someone else's life, I will cause the gift of faith to begin to operate in a most powerful way through your life. You will be able to stand against the extraordinary tough things that the enemy has brought against you, the enemy has doubled his tactics.  His assignment has been launched, and he has increased because he knows and recognizes that his season is almost up.  He may not know the exact moment or time but he senses it is soon.  Do not fear, there are more that are for you than against you!          
    So I say, hold your head up high, recognize that I Am doing a mighty work and I Am soon to come and receive My delighted bride, she will be brought back with Me whole, sanctified, full of grace and power.  See My mighty hand stretched out towards you, understand I Am laying hands on you to bring wholeness, soundness, wellness, nothing missing in your life in any area where it has been missing or broken.  Where it has been altered or has been lowered because of the enemy, where he is trying to bring you to the land of Lodebar, a pastureless land, and all the while I have been saying to you, you live on a highway!  You live on a highway, not in the barren, desert places, no matter the circumstances in your life, you choose My highway, stay on the paths I choose, and I will bring you up even higher says the Lord.  I Am not moved by the things that you hear or see whatever conversation the enemy has brought across your ear gates or your eye gates, they are lies.  He is a liar, and he has never told the truth and he has not started telling the truth to you.  It is a lie, says the Lord, and I Am above every lie.  So as you, believe Me, watch and see the mighty works, miracles, signs and wonders, and demonstrations in the days ahead and you will know that the Lord your God is mighty in your midst.  For I will perform those things that I promised you in due time and due season.  For it is your time, and it is your season so lift your head up high.  Yes, your morning has come so rejoice in the day for the night has been long and it is over for you, your day has come.  So rejoice in the day, stand in the sunlight and rejoice for I have done it, even as I said I would do.
 
    "He made a highway going right through the Red Sea as the Hebrews passed through on dry ground, exploding with joyous excitement over the miracles of God." (Ps. 66:6)
 
    "A highway will be there, and a roadway; And it will be called the Holy Way. The unclean will not travel on it, But it will be for those who walk on the way [the redeemed] And fools will not wander on it." (Is. 35:8)
 
    "You are of your father the devil, and it is your will to practice the desires [which are characteristic] of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks what is natural to him, for he is a liar and the father of lies and half-truths." (John 8:44)
 
    "Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God [set aside self-righteous pride], so that He may exalt you [to a place of honor in His service] at the appropriate time," (1 Peter 5:6)

    Rise up and clothe yourself with strength for the night is far spent.  The day is near!  It is time to take inventory of what has been allowed in My temple.  You must have an undivided heart, one that is loyal to Me and the Kingdom.  Put away all that defiles and draws your attention away.  As you return to Me, I will restore.  You know that you can not serve two masters and you can not have two lovers.  I Am jealous over you, and I must have your undivided attention.  As you arouse yourself up to the greatness of My love, you will be supplied with My power and glory right in your midst.  As you come back to Me, I will cause a new sense of liberation and freedom.  You will no longer be earthbound.  You will begin to live and operate in a realm where the things of this earth will no longer be able to obstruct your movements in Me.  Watch your spirit soar, and you will not be defiled by this world any longer.  You will begin to value the things above more than the things of this earth.  You will overwhelm the rulers of darkness, principalities, powers and spiritual wickedness in high places.  They will shudder at your voice, for your voice will be the same as Mine.  Now be done with small living, small dreaming and small thinking, begin to enjoy the abundance of all of Me.  Drink deep of Me and become a living, flowing river of blessing to every dry land that you come to. 

    I have never left you or abandoned you, for I am always faithful.  Even in those times when you doubted Me, My love and My promise, I remained faithful to Our covenant.  I can not change.  I will do what I said I would do on your behalf, you must be faithful to My Word and then stand and see great deliverance will run the course in your life.  Bringing wholeness to every part of you, until there is nothing missing or broken, for I Am the Lord that heals you.  Only keep your hearts pure by loving and forgiving, continually washing by My Word which removes impurities that would try to weaken you, physically, mentally, or spiritually.  You will then be, the overcoming, victorious church.  My Bride must be pure and holy, a heavenly Bride.  

    “For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.” (Eph. 6:12-13)

    “Be appalled at this, you heavens, and shudder with great horror, declares the Lord. My people have committed two sins: They have forsaken Me, the springs of living water, and have dug their own cisterns, broken cisterns that cannot hold water.” (Jer. 2:12-13)

    “I delight greatly in the Lord; my soul rejoices in my God. For he has clothed me with garments of salvation and arrayed me in a robe of his righteousness, as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.” (Is. 61:10)

 I know that you are going through a tough transition, yet I have not forsaken you.  This will open up for you a large place, a place where you will begin to trust and lean on Me like never before. 

 
Good morning,
 
    I know that you are going through a tough transition, yet I have not forsaken you.  This will open up for you a large place, a place where you will begin to trust and lean on Me like never before.  As you have shifted, you may think that you have lost loved ones, positions, careers, and even ministries.  It is not over, I Am working on something for you.  I have always had a good plan for you, and it is My plan that will prevail.  I have seen the tears and the heartaches, the times of feeling rejected, or cast away.  You were never rejected by Me, no, never.  I have waited for you to turn all of your affections and desires to Me.  I will be all that you need, but you must renew your love for Me.  I will fulfill the longings of your heart and heal your brokenness.  I will give you a heart that thinks like Me.  You will then see that you have not really lost anything, instead of that you have gained more ground in Me.  As you begin to shake yourself free from the cares of this world, you will awake to see the new light that has arisen over the obscure places that you have tread upon.  I will send men to help you and send you help from on high. 
     Distractions of this age have tried to occupy my children's thoughts.  They are led astray by their thoughts.  I have given you a sound mind, but you must keep your mind stayed on Me in order to keep it sound.  Many are falling away from Me because they no longer spend the quiet moments with Me in worship.  They are careful and busy about many things so that from dawn until the night their thoughts are not towards me.  It is My peace that I have given to you in the past that guards your thoughts and your emotions.  I say to you, to be concerned about your true Love.  I Am the One.  Too many lovers make you an unfaithful lover.  When was the last time that I was the only One on your mind?  I Am a jealous lover, I will not have any other love before Me.  Come back to Me with the simple believing love that you once had, and I will receive you to Myself and restore to you the joy that you had in serving Me.  If not you will miss My next move, you will not be able to see, for your other lovers will detain you and keep your eyes covered.  You must come to Me again like a virgin lover.  Depend on Me, I Am trustworthy.
 
    "But take heed to yourselves and be on your guard, lest your hearts be overburdened and depressed (weighed down) with the giddiness and headache and nausea of self-indulgence, drunkenness, and worldly worries and cares pertaining to [the business of] this life, and [lest] that day come upon you suddenly like a trap or a noose;" (Luke 21:34)
 
    "You will guard him and keep him in perfect and constant peace whose mind [both its inclination and its character] is stayed on You, because he commits himself to You, leans on You, and hopes confidently in You." (Is. 26:3)
    
    "He brought me forth also into a large place; He was delivering me because He was pleased with me and delighted in me." (Ps. 18:19)
 

Love,
