Good morning,
 

  To those who will stay in My presence until I change them, will experience a "knowing moment", a revelation of who I Am in the "here and now".  I Am going to keep coming to them in waves of revealing until they are overwhelmed with the power to be alive in Me.  They will be consumed by My presence but they will be awaken to be more and more like Me.  In the waves of My fires, of the flood, of the winds, and of My oil being poured from heaven they will see what I showing them, hear what I Am speaking, and go where I Am sending them, moving with the flow of Holy Spirit.  It will be unique, because they will be a fresh voice when many have become imitators, recordings of men.  They are the ones that I will exalt.  They will simply build on the foundation that I have laid and maintain humble hearts as they do so.  They will stand amazed at the work that I have done in them during the construction period of their life.  They will clearly see that I never cease nor stop but that I kept on working even in the night season while they were sleeping.  I Am doing an astronomical change in you beyond your thoughts and ability to believe.  There is no computation of the work that I have been doing in you.  It is beyond measure, it is beyond comprehension, because you keep asking, you keep requiring more of Me and because you require more of Me, I say yes to you, yes to you!  So I would say to those who come under My shadow, while you are under My wings, I am keeping you and making you.  Stay open to Me, so I can do the work that is needed in you to affect a change.  Everything I start, I complete, and I know what I purposed and planned for you.  So stand humbly in My presence and allow Me, yield your heart, yield your will.  
     For a long time, I have been asking and requesting for you to take your devotion to Me up to a new level, but before you can take it up a level, a death must occur.  You must abandon yourself to Me, I Am trustworthy with your life.  Know that there are too many people on the throne, too many in My space says the Lord.  I alone must sit on the throne in your heart and in your life.  So there must be a death of you.  You must die of all the things that you put your hands to that I have not called you to.  You must die of all the plans in your mind that you dreamed up and schemed up that I have not anointed nor put in your path for you to do.  As you give Me your life you will see how easy it is for Me to be lifted up as I lift you up.  You will begin to have clarification, understanding, and wisdom will come to you in this next level, this next place that I Am calling you to.  It will be a little easier for you to walk with Me.  It will be a little easier for you to hear Me.  I have been calling you to this place all along and you have never understood that you must die.  You hold on as if you are holding on to something very precious and I have something more precious than you could ever dream or conceive just waiting for you.  Stay in My presence.
 
     "Humble yourselves [feeling very insignificant] in the presence of the Lord, and He will exalt you [He will lift you up and make your lives significant]." (James 4:10)
     "[I assure you] by the pride which I have in you in [your [a]fellowship and union with] Christ Jesus our Lord, that I die daily [I face death every day and die to self]." (1 Corin. 15:31)
     "And I am convinced and sure of this very thing, that He Who began a good work in you will continue until the day of Jesus Christ [right up to the time of His return], developing [that good work] and perfecting and bringing it to full completion in you." (Phil. 1:6)

Power
 
Good morning,
  

     You have only lived in a partial of the power that I have placed on the inside of you, and as you yield yourself, all of yourself, your members, your thought life, your whole being to Me, then I will increase Myself on the inside of you so that you can accomplish and do everything that I have appointed and called you to do in this season.  For each one of My children, I have placed on the inside a supernatural ability.  Most only get to the surface of that supernatural ability, and when they do some wonder in their life, they are amazed at that and they usually stop there, but there is so much more that I have placed on the inside of you.  So much more, says the Lord, and the enemy constantly tries to keep you preoccupied in your life so that you never attain to the place that I want you to.  The choice is yours as always.  So what I Am doing is clearing away the fog for this moment, to give you the ability to see what I know.  Step in and gaze at what I have called you to be, and what I have anointed you to be in this season.  This divine time far surpasses even what you thought, says the Lord, and I have gifted you and I have equipped you.  Never do I call anyone to do anything without first gifting them and equipping them so that they will not fail.  So I say to you all that I have placed in you makes you able.  I can hear you saying, "I can not do anymore" but My Spirit living on the inside of you makes you able.  My grace is sufficient and I have heard this used over and over again, and it grieves My heart in this season says the Lord because My grace is the power to live.  It is the power to be what I have called you to be, I have anointed you with My grace.  There is nothing, no thing that you can not do with My grace says the Lord.  It is not weak, it is not powerless but it is the power of your Father abiding on the inside of you making you able to do all those things that the enemy tells you, "you're not able" but you are able says the Lord.  You are well able because of My grace, My anointing, My Spirit who lives on the inside of you.  So begin to see who you really are, gaze into the wonders of your God.  Just a moment to see what I have called you to do and be, and all of the giftings, abilities, and talents that lie dormant in your life.  Some that you have tapped into a little bit, but you have not released the portion that I have placed on the inside of you.  I know that what I have given you is way to much for you to handle alone, so I have given you, Me.  So lean on the Spirit, that is why I said "those who walk in the spirit they will not fulfill the lust of the flesh", but they will fulfill the longings of their Father's heart.  So I say look at who you really are.  The enemy is afraid for you to un-tap the resources and the power of who you really are and when that happens he will know that the sons and daughters of the most high God have arisen.  You can do those things.  The enemy is a liar.  You can do those "very things".  I have fully equipped you to do just that.  
     Right now you can sense the anointing, abide in that anointing, live your life by My anointed Words, and you will close the door on the enemy, and stop living life in that cycle.  In a vicious cycle of lies and you have been hindered from being who you really are.  You are the giant and the enemy is afraid of you for I have given you My ability.  Never again say what you can not do.  Never again say what you are not, for I have given everything to you My children.  I have not held back anything.  I have not withheld back any of My grace, any of My mercy.  My mercy is new for this day.  If you ask, I will cleanse you and forgive you and set you up on a high place.  I Am all the time exalting you so that you know who you really are.  You are well above every circumstance of this life.  Walk in it, be in the moment of what I have called you to be.
 
     "Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world." (1 John 4:4)
     "According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust." (2 Peter 1:3-4)

     "And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Comforter (Counselor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthener, and Standby), that He may remain with you forever" (John 14:16)

Good morning,
  
     You are the salt of the earth and if the salt has lost its saltiness it is good for nothing except to be thrown out.  Hear Me as I say to you My people today, find your saltiness once again.  That part in you that I placed to savor this whole world, to cause seasoning from My kingdom to go throughout this world.  If you hold back what I have given you then the world will be lost, but I have anointed you in this final hour.  Do not hold back from the wittiness, creativity, and My ability I have placed in you.  I have caused it and placed it in you to save some and if you hold back then their blood will be on your hands. I Am saying to you My children today restore your saltiness.  Do not lose who you are in Me, because I have called you and placed you in specific places for this season, to season this world and to cause some to come.  So be who I have anointed you to be and be bold about it. I have given you My grace, all that is needed to live a powerful, holy, and influential life.  There is only one unique, you, and I have planted you to be the most effective where you are.  Do not let your own thoughts, circumstances, trials, tests, or the unknown happenings keep you from setting your world ablaze.  Know that as you stay deeply rooted in Me that you will grow and become fixed and stable, many will be sustained by your faithfulness to Me.  This is our season, this is our hour, stand strong, stand brave, be bold and declare who I Am in this life says the Lord.  Do not lose your saltiness.
 
     "You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste (its strength, its quality), how can its saltness be restored? It is not good for anything any longer but to be thrown out and trodden underfoot by men." (Mtt. 5:13)
     "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)
     "And he will be like a tree firmly planted [and fed] by streams of water, Which yields its fruit in its season; Its leaf does not wither; And in whatever he does, he prospers [and comes to maturity]." (Ps. 1:3)

Praying hands
 
Good morning, 
 
     If My people who are called by My name would begin to humble themselves and truly pray, pray in the spirit, for you are praying My mysteries, the secret things of My heart.  As you pray in the spirit I can go places and do those things that otherwise I could not enter in.  I needed someone on the earth to intercede, and as you do, pray in the spirit, you open doors, avenues, and ways for Me to make Myself known and work the miraculous.  As you yield yourself to prayer, you are saving and delivering and setting some free, you are thwarting the plans of the enemy in someone's life.  You are doing supernatural work as you pray in the spirit.  For years many have despised My gift, My gift of the spirit that I have given to My body to make themselves more stronger, more effective in this world.  I have given you a supernatural power gift, and as you pray in the Holy Spirit signs, wonders, and miracles are being wrought in lives of people that you do not know and people that you do know.  I Am stopping things that the enemy started.  I Am starting things that otherwise could never start in their lives so I Am working.  I Am doing the mysteries and performing those secret things in the lives of people as you yield yourself and at the same time I Am doing more work on the inside of you.  I Am transforming, changing and causing your minds to think like Me, when those wicked thoughts come, as you pray in the Holy Spirit you will find your thoughts lining up with My thoughts.  The more you pray, the more you will think like Me, says the Lord, so pray and yield your members to praying in My spirit.  It will build you up, it will cause you to know Me and know the secrets of My spirit who comes along beside you to help and to enable you and to make you more powerful in this time and in this season.  For I have told you once and I Am saying once again, I Am soon to come.  Can you not tell by the signs of this world?  If you saw nothing else, if you heard nothing else, I Am coming, so I say to My people, hold on to My hands.  They are unchanging, I never change, though the seasons and the times and people may change, I Am an unchanging God.  I told you and made a promise to you, I would come and redeem and restore you back to Myself once again.  I Am soon to come so order your life, order your life as if I Am coming this moment says the Lord.
 
     "In the same way the Spirit [comes to us and] helps us in our weakness.  We do not know what prayer to offer or how to offer it as we should, but the Spirit Himself [knows our need and at the right time] intercedes on our behalf with sighs and groanings too deep for words.  And He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because the Spirit intercedes [before God] on behalf of God’s people in accordance with God’s will."(Rom. 8:26-27)
     "So wait patiently, brothers and sisters, until the coming of the Lord. The farmer waits [expectantly] for the precious harvest from the land, being patient about it, until it receives the early and late rains. You too, be patient; strengthen your hearts [keep them energized and firmly committed to God], because the coming of the Lord is near."(James 5:7-8)
     "But you, beloved, build yourselves up [founded] on your most holy faith [[a]make progress, rise like an edifice higher and higher], praying in the Holy Spirit; Guard and keep yourselves in the love of God; expect and patiently wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah)—[which will bring you] unto life eternal." (Jude 20-21)

Good morning,
 
     Many times My people stop short and they do not receive the completion of what I Am doing.  So they become unfulfilled and they never fulfill what I have called them to do nor walk it out, or live it in their lives because they feel like it does not look like I Am through and it should not because I have not finished.  When I complete a thing it is for good, therefore doing good, it may go through a valley or through rough lands, but it will bring good.  So allow Me to finish what I started in you, I know exactly how to do and what to do in order to bring My good.  No one else has this plan except for Me says the Lord.  It is My master plan, and no one can duplicate it, to cause maturity in you.  Before you were formed I knew exactly what it would take to get you to that design and that desired place and if you will let Me because I have said it once and I will say it again to you, I can not make you.  I will not drag you kicking and screaming to that finish line but if you yield I will come and enable and help by My spirit, and we will do wondrous things on the inside of you.  No one has ever seen the completion of who you really are.  If you will only allow Me you will be amazed.  The plans, the purposes, and the dreams that I have for you far outweigh anything that you could imagine.  Let Me do it.  
     That is why My people stay in a cycle because they never allow Me to finish the perfecting.  They stay in a cycle by repeating the same things over and over again.  I have come to set you free, completely free so that when I Am finished you look like Me, you act like Me, you walk like Me.  Allow Me to do it so that I may be glorified in this world so that the world may know that you serve a living God, a God who is with you, for you, and who is all about you because that is what I Am all about.  You, doing exactly what I have called and anointed you to do.  It is a perfect plan.  It is a beautiful finish.  Allow Me to do it.
 
     "I am convinced and confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will [continue to] perfect and complete it until the day of Christ Jesus [the time of His return]." (Phil. 1:6)
     "As for me, I shall see Your face in righteousness; I will be [fully] satisfied when I awake [to find myself] seeing Your likeness." (Ps. 17:15)
     "for He delivered us and saved us and called us with a holy calling [a calling that leads to a consecrated life—a life set apart—a life of purpose], not because of our works [or because of any personal merit—we could do nothing to earn this], but because of His own purpose and grace [His amazing, undeserved favor] which was granted to us in Christ Jesus before the world began [eternal ages ago]," (2 Tim. 1:9)

Oil
(photo credit: http://www.earthamag.org)
 
Good morning,
   
     As we enter the year of 5779, we are in the time of seeing with clarity in order to decree and declare what we see with the eyes of the spirit. We have 9 fruits of the Spirit, we have 9 gifts of the Spirit,and we have 9 beautitudes. (Galatians 5:22-23; 1 Corinthians 12:8-10; Matthew 5:3-11) If you would see and look within yourself, use your "spirit eyes" to see how much fruit you have been bearing.  How many gifts have you been operating in and allowing to flow in your life, because you have been bearing great fruit.  The 9 beatitudes, the blessedness, how many of us have been walking in and being those beatitudes?  So God is saying,  "look within yourself and see what I Am doing within you".  That is why I have sent the fire, the rain, the water and then the wind.  Every time there was something going on in the spirit there was something going on in the natural.  So now get ready for the oil, I Am about to pour on those who are right and upright. This oil will bring such an anointing that has never been recorded like this in decades.  For those who love righteousness, it will mean sweatless victories and sweatless anointings, they are going to happen.  For they have been crushed through these past years in order to bring forth this most powerful oil.  It has been costly. They will declare those revealings that they have seen as they were being crushed to be profitable for many lives.
 
     It is for those who will, says the Lord, it is for those who want more of Me.  I will come along beside you and enable you like never before because I know that there is a yieldedness of your heart.  I hear your "yes", and respond to it says the Spirit of grace.  I will do exceedingly, abundantly above all that you have asked or even thought says the Lord, for I Am the God of miracles, signs and wonders and I will do it because you are mine and I will have My glory.  I will have My glory through you and in you as you yield to Me. As you open your eyes you will begin to see those things that the enemy tried to camouflage to keep you from seeing by the darkness of this world, but the light has come on brighter on the inside of you.  You have arisen from the slumber of sleep from years of uncertainty, and now your eyes see clearly what I devise and plan for you to walk in.  So live in it and declare it and have and enjoy all that is yours in this season.  This is "now" the time that hand in hand we will join and do greater things and there will never be a generation like this one, says the Lord.  So declare over yourself that you are a seer of the "doings and revealings' of your God.  You see what I see, you say what I say.  You are a doer of the things of God, you are no longer stumbling in the dark but with clarity of life you will walk it out, one sure step at a time.  This is your new year to do it says the Lord, and to cause an exclamation point to be added on to your living for Me.  You will exclaim, that I the Lord your God is good, and you will walk in the goodness that I have planned for you even before you were formed.  This is our season, so step into it with the oil of gladness that I Am anointing you with right now above all of your companions.  It is different says the Lord, it is different says the Lord, it is different says the Lord!  It will separate you from those around about you.  The oil of gladness brings power, it brings insight, it brings wisdom, because when you see, you understand some things and you walk above every one else about you because you have the wisdom of your God.  This will be the year says the Lord that insight and wisdom will flow in you and through you.  So get ready, get ready for that fresh anointing.  I Am doing it now, heaven is overflowing and overfilling with My anointing oil upon you now.  From the foundation of the earth I said the light shall never cease because the oil shall never cease.  So right now get ready for the light to increase because the oil has increased.
 
     "You have loved righteousness [integrity, virtue, uprightness in purpose] and have hated lawlessness[injustice, sin].Therefore God, Your God, Has anointed You With the oil of gladness above Your companions." (Heb.1:9)
     "But he who looks carefully into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and faithfully abides by it, not having become a [careless] listener who forgets but an active doer [who obeys], he will be blessed and favored by God in what he does [in his life of obedience]." (James 1:25)
     "Now to Him who is able to [carry out His purpose and] do superabundantly more than all that we dare ask or think [infinitely beyond our greatest prayers, hopes, or dreams], according to His power that is at work within us." (Ephes. 3:20)

Good morning,
 
     Be not weary in well doing, for I have said in My word that in due time and in due season you shall reap if you do not faint.  Know that the set time has come for you, and that set time is set according to My calendar.  In two weeks you will experience such a freshness, a newness that you have not known before, it is because you have pressed through the hard times and you have allowed Me to take you through.  As this new year begins greater experiences for you because you have allowed the fire, you have allowed the washing, you have allowed the wind and now the oil will come, and I will anoint you from afresh from on high because you have endured many things.  I have seen the times, and the seasons, and the things that you have gone through, yet know that I have carried you through them.  Even in this you did not faint because I carried you through.  Think it not strange of the trials that have beset you, they are common to man but I by My spirit have lifted you up high and I know your heart and I know all that you have done in My name.  Know this that nothing that you have done in My name has been lost.  In fact says the Lord, I have kept a record of them and the tally is high for you because you endured, and remained faithful to Me.  You went through the valley and have entered the other side of this where My promises are laid before you.  So I say hold on to My unchanging hand for I Am bringing you into that promised land.  I made these promises to you years ago and the years are for this set time.   Many are giving up and quitting but you have endured and you held on to My hand and the set time for you has come and many shall stand on the outside and say, "why God, why did they get those things?"  It is because you walked through, you went through the fire and you did not get burned and you came out stronger and more determined.  I desire to use you for My glory and for My name so that men might come to know Me as a personal God.  You are one that will not give up just because you are going through.  I Am faithful to My promises that I made you.  I called you before you were formed in your mother's womb and I knew you, and I know your destiny and your purpose and no enemy can take it from Me says the Lord, so do not allow him to take it from you.  You are headed for more of My goodness, you are headed toward your destiny, you are headed for My purpose and you will fulfill every moment of it and no enemy can stop it, for I your God stands with you and for you.
 
     "And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not." (Gal. 6:9)
     "So that you will not be [spiritually] sluggish, but [will instead be] imitators of those who through faith [lean on God with absolute trust and confidence in Him and in His power] and by patient endurance [even when suffering] are [now] inheriting the promises" (Heb. 6:12)
     "For He delivered us and saved us and called us with a holy calling [a calling that leads to a consecrated life—a life set apart—a life of purpose], not because of our works [or because of any personal merit—we could do nothing to earn this], but because of His own purpose and grace [His amazing, undeserved favor] which was granted to us in Christ Jesus before the world began [eternal ages ago]" (2 Tim. 1:9)

Dirty-air-filter
 
Good morning,
 

     I have brought wind to wake you up, to wake you from your slumber and your sleep, so that you could arise and shine!  I know that the wind is causing the dust and the dirt, the things that are residue after the flood has come, after the fire has there is residue too, now this debris must be removed. 
 
     The Spirit of the Lord says, for many of you, your filters have been dirty.  You have still been trying to vacuum the residue in your life with defective tools, yet the objects, dirt, and dust and things in your heart that hinder you from being most effective are still strong.  So I Am not just washing or burning it, I Am sending My wind, and just like a dust storm, I Am causing those things to circulate so that when I finish the only thing that is left is those things that are holy.  I Am not replacing that filter with something that is washed only with remnants of dirt on the filter.  I Am placing a new filter, and it can only be placed by the love that you have for Me and My word this will cause a new clean filter to sift away those things that have come and entered into your heart that you have accepted as part of Who I Am.  But there must be a separation between those things that are holy and those things that are not holy, those things that are sacred and those things that are defiled.  There will be a separation in your thoughts, so keep your eyes focused on Me for the winds have begun to blow and they are not the usual winds of life.  They are blowing away those things that have made you stumble, cause you to run slow and lethargic and cause you to be halt between opinions concerning Me and My Word.  You will now move ahead.  For when you finish going through, then I shall anoint you with fresh oil from heaven.  For I can not anoint dry bones that will not submit to My fire, water, or the wind of My Spirit.  I can not anoint anyone, unless there is a yielded heart.  I can not anoint that which is filthy or dirty, those things that are unholy, but I can anoint that which I have called holy.  As you stand through the storms of these winds you will be made holy, sanctified, and set apart and then I shall anoint you afresh.  
     Clear understanding, fresh insight as you walk with Me, you will know effectively how to pray, you will not be shooting darts in the dark any longer but clarity will come to you and you will understand.  Greater revelations in areas that you have never understood, for you will walk in a higher light.  I Am turning up the volume in your heart and in your life.  Your light in the dark around you will shine stronger and many will come because of the anointing.  Do not miss this, do not miss this.  Be present in your heart and mind.  For in this season you shall become a double portion in this land.  So yield to My workings, I know exactly what I Am doing to bring about My purpose, My design and your destiny.  I Am continually working for your good.
 
     "You are the light of [Christ to] the world.  A city set on a hill cannot be hidden;  nor does anyone light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house.  Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good deeds and moral excellence, and [recognize and honor and] glorify your Father who is in heaven." (Matt. 5:14-16)
     "As for you, the anointing [the special gift, the preparation] which you received from Him remains [permanently] in you, and you have no need for anyone to teach you.  But just as His anointing teaches you [giving you insight through the presence of the Holy Spirit] about all things, and is true and is not a lie, and just as His anointing has taught you, you must remain in Him [being rooted in Him, knit to Him]." (1 John 2:27)
     "And you will be called priests of the Lord, you will be named ministers of our God.  You will feed on the wealth of nations, and in their riches you will boast.  Instead of your shame, you will receive a double portion, and instead of disgrace you will rejoice in your inheritance.  And so you will inherit a double portion in your land, and everlasting joy will be yours." (Is. 61:5-7)

Good morning,
 
     I  always make room just for you.  Do you hear Me my child?  It is as if you are My only one that I cry for today.  The enemy has desired to sift you as wheat, but I have a plan for your life.  I knew you before you were formed in your mother's womb and I breathe My life into you so that you may live and declare My works.  There is nothing too hard or difficult for Me.  I Am Abba, your daddy, your Father and your God.  I Am well able against any force of darkness that would try to defy My plan and My work in you.  I will do it so that I may receive all glory and honor.  Watch and see Me do it.  Understand that I need you to come along with Me.  I need you to assist Me in every way that I Am going.  Do not quit, do not lose hope, do not get weak for I will strengthen you so that you can carry on through the rest of this journey to fulfill the very destiny I have planned for you.  I know the plans and the way.  I know the plans that I have for you and I have declared them good, it does not matter what the enemy says.  I have declared them good, and I Am bringing that good into your life if you will let Me.  
     If you will let Me truly love you, I will love you out of that sin, I will love you out of those weak areas, I will love you out of that hatred, I will love you out of that unforgiveness.  I will if you let Me, just let Me.  Long enough the enemy has held you up and stalled My great purpose and plan.   Let us run on to the fullness and perfection.  Nothing that I do is small.  No matter how small it may be in men's eyes.  Nothing that I do or decree over you is insignificant.  I have greater things in store but I need you to cooperate with Me, for I can not make you, My child.  As much as I want you to fulfill My purpose, I will not make you.  I need willingness of heart, so that I can do the things that are necessary to cause you to be more effective in your walk with Me.  Lives are dependent upon Me and lives are dependent upon you, for together we can accomplish everything. I need your cooperation as well as you need Me, so yield your members to Me.  I will make you more effective because I want you to be in My house, a vessel of honor, so that I might be always glorified through your life.  As My name is being called upon on this earth, I want all to know and understand that there is a difference in the God you serve, because they can easily see and know there is a difference in your live as you serve Me.
 
     "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)
     "The smallest one will become a thousand (a clan), And the least one a mighty nation.  I, the Lord, will quicken it in its [appointed] time."  (Is. 60:22)
     "If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the best of the land; But if you refuse and rebel, You shall be devoured by the sword.” For the mouth of the Lord has spoken." (Is. 1:19-20)

Good morning,
 
     I Am sending forth a fresh new breeze, that will quickly turn into a wind.  I Am sending wind from the four corners of this world.  Powerful winds never seen or felt before and you will see even in the natural says the Lord.  It will be unheard of, unprecedented in the power and the force of this wind.  The wind and the Spirit is sent to create in you a fresh new hunger, zeal, and a desire for more of Me.  This wind is sent to breathe fresh new life in where you have been dead and dried out, barren and not bringing forth fruit.  The time for that is over, it is over, for finally a generation of believers have gone through the wilderness.  Believers, who have been tested and tried by My word, they have gone through the wilderness and on the other side they will encounter a fresh wind, fresh winds blowing in them to cause new life to come forth.  New life says the Lord, new life and ability to do the things that I called them to do that they have laid aside, because of the cares of this world and the things of this world that have entered in and choked the fruit that I have desired for them to bring forth.  I Am causing those things that hindered, to loose its hold from you, if you will let.  If you will let.  I Am looking for a generation of people who will totally surrender and let Me do this in them, and if it is you says the Lord, you will begin to see a new height, a new area in your life open up.  You will begin to experience things you never experienced before, and the authority that you have lost will come back again and with boldness you will decree to the enemy, the forces of darkness round about you that they have no power and no authority in your atmosphere.  Not just concerning you, but in your sphere you will take up the authority once again and you will march throughout this land as a mighty host.  A mighty army that the enemy recognizes that he can not reckon with any longer and he will give up the power and the ability that he once had in your mind and in your life, because he will recognize that truly a fresh new army has arrived, that know who they are, and they are not backing down anymore and they are not giving their tongue over to him anymore and not giving their mind over to him anymore.  They are rising up as if from the graves of darkness says the Lord.  For I have awakened My giants in the land, the mighty army of God has arisen once again.  This is My people full of power and authority, now they know who they are.  They are brushing off that dust, the ashes that they have been lying in, for they realize that death has passed them by and new life has come and they are arising to the boldness of who they really are once and for all.
     "And I will compensate you for the years that the swarming locust has eaten,the creeping locust, the stripping locust, and the gnawing locust—My great army which I sent among you." (Joel 2:25) 
     "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." (Joshua 1:8)
     "Then He said to me, “Prophesy to the breath, son of man, and say to the breath, 'Thus says the Lord God, "Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe on these slain, that they may live." (Ezek. 37:9)
