Good morning,

   
     This
is what the Spirit is saying, those that have hurt you, those who have
touched you, those who have done harm to you on purpose, He says, these
you will not see any longer.  And I hear the Spirit of the Lord saying, against Israel, nations are rising to destroy them in secret.  They
are plotting and planning in secret and I will take them down in one
moment, and so it will be also with the enemies who touch My own, in one
moment I will wipe them out.  For
I have tolerated this long enough and it is time for them to know that
there is a God and I Am a righteous judge and I Am a holy God and I Am a
God to be revered.  And so, says the Lord, because the end has come for tolerating
so much sin because of gross darkness, know that demonic forces have
come out in an enormous amounts and strong attack and array against My
children.  They have sent
out hoards and levels of demons that you have never seen before.  But
when darkness comes My children, great light comes and do you not
understand that in the midst of darkness that is when demons work and
operate to try and create confusion and every evil work.  But
in the midst of great light, that is when I shine and do My greatest
work, so you are about to shine like never before and put them to
flight.  The darkness that has encompassed you and covered your heart and covered your eyes and caused you not to see Me, it shall go away and in a moment, a new day and a new rising and a new sun shall appear.  And you will walk in it again, in power and in might like has never been seen before.  For through eons of history, all have been waiting for the sons and daughters of God to be
revealed and they are not small, they are
not minuscule, they are not weak, but they are powerful and they are great in number says the Lord.  And I Am unleashing the power that is within My people to do warfare against the darkness in this land.
    ~So I saw how it is all connected.  The darkness, and what I saw in the darkness is when you turn the lights off, that’s when everybody, children and anyone that has any fear, they become more fearful, they become very paranoid.  That’s because they have been taught that the devil, ghosts, the bogeyman, and
all those demonic forces operate in the dark.~
     But I Am turning up the light, says the Lord, so that you can shoo away every demonic force.  Every
thing that lies against the truth and everything born from fear, and I
Am turning the light up even brighter, so that it can be seen from afar
says the Lord.  The light is my people on fire for Me, and I
Am turning the light up because My people have turned up their cry for
more of Me. So that you can be seen from afar says the Lord.  And many who are in darkness are groping and looking for the light and you My children will
respond with
illumination from My insight.  And you will draw those who are in darkness, who have been waiting to see the light.
   ~And then I see the nations that are against Israel even now.  They are at a round table, deciding and discussing how they will attack Israel, but God is there and He hears all their plans.  And He will destroy them, all those that would touch Israel.~
       And
so I Am saying at the same time, My people are one and whoever touches
My people, the church, whoever touches My people Israel, they will be
self-slaughtered.
     "For this is what the Lord Almighty says: “After the Glorious One has sent me against the nations that have plundered
you—for whoever touches you touches the apple of his eye—" (Zechariah 2:8)
 
     "Who is among you who [reverently] fears the Lord, who obeys the voice of His Servant, yet who walks in darkness and deep trouble and has no shining splendor [in his heart]?  Let him rely on, trust in, and be confident in the name of the Lord, and let him lean upon and
be supported by his God.  Behold, all you [enemies of your own selves]
who attempt to kindle your own fires [and work out your own plans of
salvation], who surround and gird yourselves with momentary sparks, darts, and firebrands that
you set aflame!—walk by the light of your self-made fire and of the sparks
that you have kindled [for yourself, if you will]!  But this shall you have from My hand: you shall lie down in grief and in torment." (Is. 50:10-11)
     "Who is the King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle." (Ps. 24:8)

Good morning,

     We all know that once we are born, we are
on a natural course to grow up, it is the same once we are born-again.  We should consistently grow up in all things spiritually.  Our character
becoming more and more like our Father.  Also growing in the knowledge of
Him and His will and
purposes for us.  "Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation." (1 Peter 2:2)  "But grow in the grace and in knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ…" (2 Peter 3:18)
      A
plant left alone by itself, trying to do it’s own thing, trying to weed
itself, all by itself just trying, that plant can only grow so high
because the weeds keep cropping up a day later, 2 days later.  And they are so powerful that they overtake the garden you have
been trying to tend.  But I hear the spirit of
the Lord saying, but I Am the garden keeper and I am excellent at what I do and when I pull up the weeds it is from the root.  I
do not deal with what you see on the top, and that is why it is taking
Me time, time that others would not allow because they thought I was
taking too long.  But because you endured and was patient and because you
allowed and you let me, even when you could not comprehend what I was doing, you will shoot forth.  Your plant, your growth will exceed any natural limitations that this world or the church world has placed upon you.  Because
you have allowed Me by staying in the soil that I have planted you in,
no matter what it looks like and have been faithful to My Word.  Now
the sun is about to break through in a new level and to a degree that
up until now has never been known before, you will exceed limits and it
will be supernatural.  And then all the other plants that
were in the same field who refused to allow and let Me, they will begin
to dissipate and die because the weeds will choke the life from them,
but you will grow and by your growth weeds will have no place any longer
around you.  By your submission to Me, weeds will die at the very mention of My name.  Weeds will begin to disintegrate at the presence of the anointing that you will walk in, says the Lord.  They will not entangle your heart and your mind any longer, but you will excel and grow says the Lord.  This is our season.  This is our season, says God.  This is our season, says your Father.  This is our season, says the Son.  This is our season, says the Spirit.  This is our season.  Hallelujah!
  Understand this My children, most of the weeds that you will see will be selfishness, bitterness, envy, and hatred.  These are the
enemies of the kingdom, says the
Lord, and you will begin to see the love of God supersedes everything in your life.  And
when you do that says the Lord, you will have come to the place that I
have desired My children to come to all along, that’s maturity to me,
that’s growing up to me, that’s how I manage and check the growth of
My children.  For I said that if you love Me you will keep My word and
that’s how I determine how you love Me, not by your words alone, not by
any of the other things that you do, but by walking in My great love
that I have given unto you.  The same love that I show to
you every morning, every day and I am faithful and I have never stopped
giving you my love with mercy and grace.  Mercy because
there are times in your life that you have done things and you don’t
deserve the goodness that I give you so I give you mercy.  Grace, grace
when you don’t qualify for those things that
I give unto you.  I enable you and strengthen you, that is who I Am and that is who you must be, says the Lord, just like Me.
     "Those that be planted in the house of the Lord
shall flourish in the courts of our God.  They shall still bring forth
fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing;" (Ps. 92:14)
     "Wherefore
laying aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies,
and all evil speakings, As newborn babes, desire the
sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow
thereby:" (1 Peter 2:1-2)
      "But whoever keeps His word, truly the love of God is perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him." (1 John 2:5)

Good morning,
     This
word was given to us during a time of worship as we cried out to Father
God.  Our desire is rising up and we are asking for fresh winds of
revival and fires of an awakening for the body of Christ!  Join us and
let our voices rise as incense.
     This
is how it is in the realm of the spirit, every time you choose to do My
Word, you become a stronger and mightier warrior!  You are pulling down
the strongholds of the wicked one, everything that has kept you in
bondage and you are letting yourself go free into a new area, into a new
realm of the
glory and you are walking, says the Lord, closer and closer to Me,
becoming more and more like Me.  You are destroying the
idols in your mind, the idols in your life, every time you choose to do
My Word mighty warrior, you are destined to win.  Every
time you lift up My Word above your feelings, above your emotions says,
the spirit of grace, you are advancing more and more into the deeper
things of God and the deeper you get, the less these things will attack
you and have the same effect that it once had in your life.  You will
find yourself doing extraordinary things, things beyond the ordinary,
every day man.  You’ll find yourself going and sailing
beyond the ordinary Christian who chooses to yield to the ways of his
flesh, says the Lord.  For I have counted you holy and
righteous and yes there is a crown waiting for you, for those who would
endure with joy and go forth and
endure those things that the enemy lies constantly to you
about.  Especially those things that you have tried over and over again
and finally when you say I will submit to the word of the living God and
when you do, you have broken through another realm while silencing the
wicked one.  And as you do says the Lord, you’re defeating,
slaying, and laying down every force of darkness that has been
counterfeiting the ways and the things that you have been saying and doing.  But
now, says the Lord, you have walked into the land of the free to the
place of the brave, where few dare to go and that is where men and women
choose My Word above everything and when they do, says the Lord, they
bring glory to Me and they bring glory into the midst of any situation.  And my glory, when it comes, it comes to change and modify and make My children more like
Me, says the Lord.  So bring my glory into this thing,
bring my anointing into this thing, bring my faith into the midst of
your life and watch and see, says the Lord, you will be unstoppable.
     "But
we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord,
are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by
the Spirit of the Lord." (2 Corin. 3:18)
     "Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness,
which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not
to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing." (2 Tim.
4:8)
     "But
clothe yourself with the Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah), and make no
provision for [indulging] the flesh [put a stop to thinking about the
evil cravings of your physical nature] to [gratify its] desires
(lusts)." ( Rom.13:14)

Good morning,

     We are crying out for more of God.  As we do, we are preparing our
hearts to receive the outpouring, however He chooses to come.  We are
tearing down religious traditions
as well as our own selfish concept and ideas.  We are hungry and
thirsty to see our Father be mighty in our midst.  Yet,
we know that we have to be prepared, ready, and willing to accept Him
as he sees fit.  However He chooses to come, come and blow upon your
people afresh and anew!
     We are sharing the prophetic words given to us.  Selah, pause and meditate. 
     There is a strategic place of inflection.  It
is time for you to make a stand, and if you stand for Me, says the
Lord, it would be like free falling, for all of your trust would be
placed in Me.  And you will do supernatural exploits in My name, that have never ever been known by this generation.  And you will see, as you abandon yourself to Me, I will see to you.  I will take care of everything that concerns you.  There will be nothing that faces you, that will not be possible,
for I will see to it, says the Spirit of grace and mercy.  I will turn
the impossible to the possible, only your trust and your dependency must
be in Me alone says the Lord.  If you will begin to place your trust and
begin to develop your spiritual ears to hear Me, you will do those
supernatural things.  And your trust will be so deep in Me that you will not be moved in the seasons that are ahead.  For many are falling away and this is the time that was spoken of, for the love of many has waxed cold, in My own household.  But
I am calling you to another level, another level of love, another level
of faith and trust in Me, another level where all your dependency is
placed upon Me and you hear Me and those who hear Me, My sheep, they
obey me.  They are prompt to do exactly what I have called them to do, unafraid and
unashamed.  For this is the time that you can no longer afford to be ashamed of me.  An awakening is occurring now, so you
must go forth boldly and declare who I Am in your life and many will
come because they have been waiting for you to declare and speak loud.  They
have been waiting for such as you, saviors of the kingdom of the
Savior.  I have appointed you for such a time as this and be not afraid,
says the Lord, for once you declare, it will be a mighty move of My
Spirit.  A revival will occur on the inside of you that
will touch many lives and a revival will be like fire, set off in the
forest of fires and many shall be caught up in it, says the Lord.  So don’t be afraid in this final hour, step off the ledge and free fall into Me.  For I will see to it, says the
Spirit of grace,
that you will never fail.
     "The Lord God hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how
to speak a word in season to him that is weary: he wakeneth morning by
morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned." (Is. 50:4)
     "And such as violate the covenant he shall pervert and seduce with flatteries, but the people who know their
God shall prove themselves
strong and shall stand firm and do exploits [for God]." (Daniel 11:32)
     "I will speak of thy testimonies also before kings, and will not be ashamed." (Psalms 119:46)

Good morning,

     We have been sharing prophetic words that the Lord has been speaking at
our church, Hesed Ministries.  He is saying some things over and over so
that we might get it in our hearts and walk boldly in His promises.  We
pray that these words are a blessing to you and that you allow them to
bring forth a harvest in your life.
 
     I have brought you to this place, a place where there does not seem a way to cross
over.  I brought you to this place so that you could look back at the wilderness and see where I brought you from.  Look
over into the promise places that I Am taking you too and realize that
your ability, your might, your strength; your ingenuity cannot take you
over.  It
is by you yielding to Me, it is complete surrendering  your all to
Me.  By recognizing that there is nothing in you that can take you over,
only your complete surrender and trust to me.  That empowers you to follow the course of My Spirit.  For I am well able to bring you over into that promised place.  It
is that place where you lift up your hands out of complete surrender
realizing that everything that you have done, all that you have mustered
up in your own strength has not
brought you to this place.  Only those moments where you yielded to Me.  It is that place where I will cause you to cross over on My wings.  Only on My wings and on My strength and My ability will you cross over.  And
I say unto you this is a good place, it is a place that I have brought
you to, so that you would really know what it is to walk by faith,
really know what it is to trust Me, really know what it is to lean over
on the arms of a mighty God.  For then says the Lord, I will bring you out with a strong hand, I will bring you out with a mighty hand.  I will show you what it is like to walk in the promised land.  I will cause you by the Spirit of
the living God to slay every Hittite, every Jebusite, every "ite" in your life and
you will walk completely free in this land, says the Lord.  But
it is completely dependent upon your surrender, your surrender to me,
throwing your hands up in the air and saying, God without you I can do
nothing and realizing that even now every step that you have made, every
place that I have brought you to, has not been because of anything
that you have done in your might.  It has been all the
while because of My mercy and My grace.  Here you will know that My grace
is sufficient enough to take you in, says the Lord.  My grace is sufficient enough to bring you out. 
     Then you
will no longer continue to look at the things you have left behind, for now you
have come to that place says the Lord.  For the rains have
brought you in to the place where a sweet fragrance is coming forth and
it is coming forth because you are going to step over into a new land.  Just
about the time that you are ready to give up and quit, the Spirit of
the living God will awaken you, will revive you and will make all things
bright for you.  This is the day says the Lord, so hold
your head up high and realize we are going into a new land, a new
territory, to do new things and it will no longer be by your strength or
your might.  You will recognize that and you will understand who you really are and that I cover you, and you will walk into that land.  You
will walk into this land recognizing now once and for all that you are Christ like, that you are God like, and you will begin to do war
against the forces of darkness that have
hindered
you and kept you standing still.  So get ready says the Lord.  Be
not afraid, be not afraid of what you are about to step into because I
Am with you and for you and I Am your rear guard and I will lead you
into that place, says the Lord.  So total surrender is needed in this day and in this hour to step into the summer of your life. 
     "Then your light will break forth like the dawn, and your healing will quickly appear; then your righteousness will go before you, and the glory of the Lord will be your rear guard." (Is. 58:8)
     "The trees will yield their fruit and the ground will yield its crops; the people will be secure in their land.  They will know that I am the Lord, when I break the bars of their yoke and rescue them from the hands of those who enslaved them." (Ezek. 34:27)
     "The Lord recompense thy work, and a full reward be given thee of the Lord God of Israel, under whose wings thou art come to trust." (Ruth 2:12)

Good morning, 
     We
have entered a place where the love that He shed abroad in our hearts
has brought us to, a place where hungering for more of Him has brought
us. 
     And I hear the spirit of the Lord saying, it is like
horses running and galloping that have been fenced in and all of a
sudden they are breaking the boundaries and the borders that they have
been confined in, in their mindset.  He is saying to us be free in Me, you have patiently waited.  All
of a sudden you are breaking the mindset that has kept you from doing
the great work that I have called you to do!  I hear the Lord saying, it
is breaking forth the boundaries, it is breaking forth the borders and
it is like a
river that cannot be confined any longer, the love in us is rising up
like that river, the love is rising up and it is going forth from this
place, says the Lord, My love can no longer be confined by your physical
being, nor your mind, it can no longer be contained so you will begin
to do exploits from that place of love.  And this love is supernatural, says the Lord.   
     And
I can see by the Spirit of grace and mercy, the love of God is
beginning to rise up on the inside of each and everyone of us.  Those
things on the inside of you that up until now has been insurmountable,
something that you could never change, something that you could never do
and you have tried over and over again, the boundaries are broken now.  The boundaries are being loosed and set free, every border that kept you in, right now you are stepping over and you
are stepping into that promise that He has made for you and you are doing it so freely now. 
     For the season has come for My people to be so free, so that they can go set others free.  And
so now says the Lord, step over that border, step over the boundary and
do it by faith, because nothing can be done unless it is done from that
place of faith.  No longer looking at what you see, feel, or think, you will just do it by faith.  And
today if you will just let that love bathe and saturate your being and
then let it flow out of you, this will not be impossible to do,
everything that the enemy has lied to you that was impossible is
possible to do because I have placed in you the ability and the power
and the might.  Just step over into that place right now, every man and woman step up right now, step up, step up.
     And see in your mind’s eye.  See the enemy has lied to you, he’s put restrictions on you.  God
is more concerned about the inside of the cup than He is about the
outside of the cup because He said, first wash and clean the inside of
the cup, make it clean, so that men could come and drink from you.
     So I say this morning, clean, clean the inside.  And I am with you to do that supernatural work.  No,
you can not do it by yourself, but I have fully equipped you to be able
to do what I tell you to do and the moment you do it, says the Lord,
you’ll see it’s not your hand alone, it’s not your feet alone, it’s not
your ability alone, it’s My
hand upon your hand.  It’s My feet moving your feet and it’s My ability on your inability, says the Lord.  And I will cause you to be supernatural and you will do things supernaturally that up until now you have
not been able to do.  I Am not only talking about the outward sign of
laying on of hands and speaking in tongues and doing those things that I
have commanded you to do.  I Am talking about the greater
works on the inside, so that men will know that there is a holy place
and a holy people in their midst, says the Lord, because I have called
you temples of My glory.  And wherever you go men will recognize there is a church in the midst of them a temple of My glory says the Lord.  You have been called such and I want you to exemplify and radiate My glory to a lost and dying world.  So go and glow, go and
bring forth, go and draw says the Lord.  Oh break forth
out from the boundaries that the enemy has held you captive in, and go
says the Lord, and glow for Me!  Bring back the souls who are bound in
darkness, bound in sin, they have no way out.  But you know the way for I have placed the way on the inside of you.  So I say go and bring them in.  This is our finest hour.  The
hour that many shall come, even at the same time many are going, many
will come because they have a desperation on the inside of them.  They
are fed up with their lives, fed up with what they see, fed up with
what they are doing and you alone have the answer for I have placed it
on the inside of you.  Go!
     "And it shall be that
every living thing that moves, wherever the rivers go, will live.  There
will be a very great multitude of fish, because these waters go there;
for they will be healed, and everything will live wherever the river
goes." (Ezek.47:9)
 
     "And
the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges,
and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled." (Luke 14:23

Good morning,
     Praise God.  There is definitely a shift taking place and it has been a
slow pace.  If we are not watchful, most of us will try to move ahead
without the anointing and find ourselves outside of God's desired timing
and His place.  "It is good that one should hope in and wait quietly for the salvation (the safety and ease) of the Lord." (Lam. 3:26)
     It has been dark and gloomy, and most of My children have been spending too much time looking on the outside of them.  You did
not understand the things that have been allowed into your life, were working for your good.  You
did not understand the greater plan and you got bogged down by the
temporary darkness and the cloudiness and you did not understand that I
was performing and perfecting for you a greater day, a day where the
light would out shine the darkness, a day where with understanding and
clarity you would walk out as in the noon day sun and do the things that
I have commanded you to do and was perfecting you to do even in the
dark days.  I was in fact with you says the Lord, for I
never left you, never have I forsaken you and I was in the midst of that
darkness and I was working and performing miracles and signs and
wonders in your heart, in your inner most being.  I was getting rid of the dung and the refuse and those things that you held onto.  I
was working diligently in your heart and in your
mind through My Word and you thought that it was dark and you thought
that it was cloudy and you could not see the sun but I have been working
says the Lord, bringing about that supernatural change on the inside of
you.  Who cares about the sun on the outside, when there needs to be sun, brightness and clarity on the inside?  Now I’m turning up the light on the inside of you says the Lord.  I
am chasing away the bitterness of days gone by, the way that you could
not understand or see because I was working under cover, bringing to
pass the design and the plan that I have for you, which is always good,
it’s always a good design.  It is my perfect plan for you, says the Lord.  I Am still working.  I Am bringing it to pass.  And even now, says the Lord, when you try, and you have tried so hard to press forth, and I say, I honor you
for pressing forth.  But now says the Lord, something
supernatural will quicken on the inside of you and it will be like a
motor turned on that up until now seemed dead.  I will
quicken and revive and revitalize everything that you have done,
everything that you put your hands to in the past, I will bring alive
again, says the Lord.  For this is the time and the season
of my great beautiful bride and I Am making a way says the Lord for her
glory to exceed the things of the past.  I Am adding to her
another level of glory, a double anointing upon My bride that have
yielded herself in that obscure secret place to allow Me to do the work,
that the glory may be Mine and hers says the Lord and I’m bringing it
to pass this season, says God.  It will be as if you have stepped out of
the darkness right into My marvelous light.  For I have been doing a
supernatural work
on the inside of you.  That is My place of preparation!
     "For the Lord God is a Sun and Shield; the Lord bestows [present] grace and favor and [future] glory (honor, splendor, and heavenly bliss)! No good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly." (Ps. 84:11)
     "Though
I walk in the midst of trouble, You will revive me; You will stretch
forth Your hand against the wrath of my enemies, and Your right hand
will save me." (Ps. 138:7)
     "Everyone
who has been wise will shine as bright as the sky above, and everyone
who has led others to please God will shine like the stars." (Daniel 12:3)

Good morning,  

     I
have designed great and supernatural things for you to see and walk in
and yet evil and wicked spirits hold you captive but I have
given you all authority over all things, over every spirit, over every
wicked thing, over every bondage that would try to keep you captive.  So, I say to you, wake up to who you are, to who you really are in Me.  See
I have given you the authority and the keys of the kingdom to
set yourself free, to be delivered, to walk above the things of this
world, and every bondage that the enemy, that that wicked, lying enemy
would try to hold you captive in, through and by My Word.  But
the choice is always yours, whether to do or not to do My Word.  I have
given you the ability to say yes to My will and walk free, walk
completely free, by yielding to My Spirit.  Thereby not allowing anything to hold you in bondage again.  For
I have pardoned you, given you the right to walk free, to live free, to
live clear in your heart and in your mind, by My blood and My Word.  But if you allow the enemy, he will keep you in bondage, by your lack of doing My Word.  So
I ask, do you want to see the greater things and walk in the
supernatural that I have made available to you, those supernatural
things, where the earth kisses heaven and you begin to walk in and
demonstrate the power of your living God?  And if you begin to say, "yes God, that’s exactly what I want."  All you need to do is line yourself up with Me says the Lord.  Line
yourself up with my Word and whatever I decreed over you.  If you begin
to say, "yes, that’s for me", and walk free from the lies of the enemy,
then ther
e is no power that he has that can hold you in captivity.  For I Am greater says, the Lord, and I have given you the ability and the power on the inside of you that comes from Me.  The same power
that was used to raise My
life from death abides in you.  So now you make a choice and you
can walk free says the Lord, and then you can begin to set others free
because people are looking for someone who is truly free.  I say unto you
this day, if you choose to be that one says the Lord, I will hook up to
you and you will hook up to Me and overflow, for there is nothing that
can keep you earth bound.  You will come into the places of the heavenlies, and visit and see and hear things that up until now has never been known nor discovered by mankind.  For
I have set aside these secret things for such a time as this.  There is
more that is needed for you to carry out the plan that I have for you in
these days, says the Lord.  But I have fully equipped you
through My Word and through My Spirit, but you must desire more than
anything, more than your necessary food, more
than the
things around you, you must have a desire for more of My things.  Then
I will empty Myself into you says the Lord and you will be full of the
glory of your living God and every place you go it will be a shadow of
the anointing falling upon every member that you come in contact with.  Say yes to Me says the Spirit of grace and mercy, you will experience a
new height of glory, yet unknown unto man.  For this is the season of glory to glory to glory, says the Lord.  So
step in and be not afraid and hold not to the things that kept you in
bondage, they are nothing but refuse and dung, says the Lord.  Let go of it and come soar high with me, Hallelujah!

Ears to Hear/Hearts to Obey

Good morning,
     You are coming through
this slow and unfamiliar territory where things seem difficult and your
steps seem lethargic.  I would say to you that the bold kept moving with
the same orders that they received at the last moment of clarity.  They
stayed on target.  Stay on target!  The cloud is lifting, the storms and
fog of despair, and feeling out of sorts is passing.  You have held on
even when you didn't know what to expect.  This behavior will cause you
to skip over others that stood still in terror.  Hear the voice of your
King; Get ready to step into a new arena of power, clarity, and a sense
of urgency to do the great works that I have called you to do.  There
will be a separation that will come
that will affect the way you operate and move as you delve into the
deeper things that I have reserved for all that have kept in-line
with Me.  It will seem as if you have a fresh new beginning, the air
will seem lighter around you, the sun will be brighter around you, your
steps will be easier.  The rain that has been dropping, sometimes
even raging around you, was allowed to make all things grow strong and
clear.  Don't be afraid to move into this new and fresh field, for I
have handpicked those who will run with you to satisfy the longing of My
heart.  Some that were running with you have dropped their baton.  They
have become weary because of looking all around them, they have let the
cares of this world set in their hearts and mind.  They did not keep
moving, they let My plans and purpose fall.  They have not been found
running, nor watching.  I said to take heed to all those who thought
they were standing, lest they fall.  I say again loud and clear; take
heed to yourselves.  This is time to evaluate your own walk, examine
your faith and quicken your steps.
     I Am calling to those who have waited on Me to say, now is the set
time!  You have carried My heart and My Word as a healing salve to all
that I have placed you with.  I have heard you saying, "God, I have
tried and I am tired", for you, I Am blowing a new breath into you.  It
will seem as if you are fifteen years younger.  I Am fully equipping you,
sending you help from on high and upon this earth.  Sentinels are
arising that are well armed and ready to win at all cost.  Armed and
dangerous with My Word, worship warriors.  Worship warriors that will
send the alarm with their cry, alerting all that have a willing and
obedient heart to come alive.  Yes, come alive with the grandeur of My
glory,
spreading My glory on every ground that they are in.  Awaken to the
fresh new fields that I have opened to you.  I have told you before stay
focused and stay on target.  Quit drifting and stop heeding to the voice
of the enemy!  Listen to My voice calling you up higher!
     "You will arise and have mercy and loving-kindness for Zion, for it is time to have pity and compassion for her; yes, the set time has come [the moment designated]." (Ps. 102:13)
     "Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall." (1 Corin. 10:13)
     "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)
  
Love,

Good morning, 

     For I draw you by My loving hand and My tender mercies.  I draw you through My Word that you might want more of Me.  For
even in your small, little doing of My Word, even in your weakness and
your weak faith, I accept you and I make you stronger.  Every time that
you come and every time you keep coming, you are longing for more, I
hearken and I give you more.  That is My desire, I want you to be like Me, I want you to operate and move like Me, I want you to represent Me.  It
is My desire, My longing, My heart is that you resemble Me.  I
want this world to look at you, not by your words alone, but by every
action and deed that you do, and understand that you represent Me by
those things.  And the world will know, for the world is in dire straits, they need a Savior, they need to know Me, and I have sent you out to cause them to come.  They will come from the byways and the highways, come from the places that the world has rejected them from.  Come, and that’s why I have sent you, the lovers of your God.  And
if you would learn to abandon yourself to Me in times and moments of
worship, in times of difficult situations, in times when you don’t know
what to do and allow Me to be God in your life, God in your midst, I
will take care of you, says the Lord.  I will be to you a husband, a friend, a counselor; I
will be to you a healer, a redeemer, a restorer.  Whatever it is that you’re needing in your life, I want to fulfill every place in your heart.  Only
come, just keep coming and recognize that the more that you come and
the more that you do what I have told you to do, the stronger you will
be, the more like Me you will be says the Lord.  It is in stages and degrees and levels, just keep coming says the Lord.
     "And
all of us, as with unveiled face, [because we] continued to behold [in
the Word of God] as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are constantly
being transfigured into His very own image in ever increasing splendor and from one
degree of glory to another; [for this comes] from the Lord [Who is] the Spirit." (2 Corin. 3:18)
     "But he who looks carefully into the faultless law, the [law] of liberty, and is faithful to it and
perseveres in looking into it, being not a heedless listener who
forgets but an active doer [who obeys], he shall be blessed in his doing
(his life of obedience)." (James
1:25)
     "Therefore be imitators of God [copy Him and follow His example], as well-beloved children [imitate their father]." (Ephes. 5:1)
