Good morning,
     The Spirit of the Lord says;    
      Many of My children have been in a long season where it seems dry and barren.  It has brought thoughts that My Word is not working for them.  Don't be afraid neither doubt My Word, for I have been deep rooting you and pulling up weeds that have taken place in your heart.  I have been bringing you to rely totally on My Spirit for My Spirit brings life and the mind of reasoning brings death.  So I say to you today, to walk in the Spirit and you will not fulfill the lust of the flesh.  For the lust of the flesh is a religious, carnal, and worldly thing, and it stands before me as an enemy, but those who would yield to the Spirit they will soar to heights unknown and uncharted by others.  For this is the time that I am unveiling, uncovering, and revealing to my own the secret things in hidden places, those things that I have left for this end time saints, the end time warriors.  I will endow you with a special anointing to do the work that must be done, but it must come only from My hands, not from yours.  Too long you have intervened with your own understanding, your own ability, and your own strength, thinking that you know the way, thinking that you know what is best to accomplish My way and therefore yielding to the Way-Maker.  The One who is the Way.  So, the more you yield to me, the great I Am, the more you will see yourself walking in those divine steps that I ordered for you even before you were thought of.  In spite of everything that you have gone through my plan remains the same, it is fixed, it is eternal and those who would find their way on this narrow pathway, on the righteous pathway, they will find their way in the things of eternity, and they will live and conduct their affairs of life as those things in eternity warrants.  They will live heaven on earth and everyone around them will be a little confused, because they are not walking as all around them, that is until they choose to come into the light, until they come to My understanding. Only then will they know and understand  that deep things must be understood by the deep. All who will go deeper into the things of their God will abound in wisdom, insight and understanding beyond their years, beyond their education, beyond their might says the Lord. No longer depending on the flesh! 
     For this is the final hour of my children and I Am dressing you with the armor that is necessary and needed for this final season and you will come forth as a victorious army and you will waive before the enemy the victorious flag of victory. The enemy  will keep coming, even though he knows his time draws near, for this is his fate.  And you will begin to be stronger with power and might and you will overshadow and take in and scoop in the weak ones of My kingdom, those who have lived only by their flesh, and  some of them will begin to understand as you begin to instruct them by living, by living Godly and by teaching My way.  Instruct their lives by every step that you take, many will wake up and follow, says the Lord.   My shepherds that I have called to the deeper walk will teach My Way and My Word once again. No longer yielding to the religious and fleshly ways of the world, while using My name.  My shepherds will once again be holy and pure, teaching and instructing with My truth.  And this is the day, says the Lord, that all of heaven has been waiting for, for the glorious day, that the sons and daughters of the most high God, unveil, reveal, and uncover who they really are.  For now you know says the Lord,  little by little, clearer light and you’re coming to understanding of who you really are and you realize what great power, what great position I have placed you in.  For you are kings of the most high God and you recognize that and you are no longer acting like that you are alienated from Me but you are alien to this world. Taking your places to occupy until I come.  Knowing that everything that I say is yes and amen!  Now you’ll be turning to My Word for the answers and not to the world says the Lord.  For this is the day, says the Lord, that the world will vomit up the things that it has leaned on and depended on, seeing their trust has been misplaced.  Many will turn to and see My children as pure, holy, sanctified, living on a hill, above the circumstances of this world.  This is why I have consistently been planting you deeper and more solid and secure in Me.  Now everything in darkness will look to the light and they will see the light for you will no longer be covered up but a revelation to all who look, says the Lord.  For this is the day of the Kingdom of the most high God.  My children shall go forth triumphant through this world, causing everything that has held them in bondage to loose the hold over their mind, over their lives, and over the lives of the people who have come under their shade, says the Spirit of grace and mercy.  This is the final day of the army of the Lord. 
     "For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.  For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.  Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.  So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God." (Rom. 8:5-8)
     "The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together." (Rom. 8:16-17)

Good morning.
     God is way ahead of us when it comes to preparing His children for
their future.  We could just remember some of the prophetic words from a
couple of years back, we would be speechless, but when we read the Word
that was written centuries ago, and it hits the target with great
details, it should cause our faith to soar.  Here is another Word that
should also be kept in the treasury of our heart.
     The Spirit of the Lord says;
     After the fires of a forest die down, left in the path are the embers
even as they are being cleared away by the wind, there is an eagerness
to start over.  The ground is ready for the planting of new seed and new
growth.  The land has an insatiable appetite to draw forth in order to
be alive again.  My children have also endured a season of purging by
fire, those who would yield, and now the season of the wind has come
upon the yielded ones.  The wind will aid in the preparation for
clearing away the ashes and creating a fresh environment for hunger and
thirst for the new growth.  My yielded children will come forth with an
insatiable desire to do the work of the Kingdom.  They know that they
have been brought to the Kingdom for such a time as this.  They willingly
stand as watchmen for their generation, their cry for this generation
has come up before Me.  The purging has brought them to a higher level
of being yielded to My Word and hearkening to My voice.  They are now
aware and responsive to heaven, and My will of bringing heaven to earth.  With that awareness comes power which increases as you continue to walk
by
faith.  This power will not be diminished because of outer situations.
     I have spoken to My children, and warned them that outer circumstances
and the world's condition would get worse, but that there would be a
settled inner peace in all who have put their trust in Me.  This is the
peace that becomes more defined in the midst of storms, trials, and
tribulations.  That is why it passes all understanding.  Some have entered
the place of rest, others will follow.  Do not allow yourself to
be pulled into the enemy's arena, stay in the cleft, stay
under My wings.  Do not be conformed to the world and its way of
thinking.  This is where you must come to the place of fearing nothing,
for nothing can harm you under My refuge.  Here I will give to you
insight on how to walk and live in victory.  You are not of this world,
neither am I.  We do not wage war
according to the weapons of this world.  I have given you the
supernatural to walk above the ways of this world, so that the world
will come to you for the wisdom that is beyond their comprehension.  Lean
not unto your own understanding, here, especially is where you must
acknowledge Me.  I will give you My wisdom, which can not be understood
with the mind of the natural man, only a spiritual minded man.  I have
been bringing you to this place of maturity, so that you reflect Me to
the world.  For all her lovers are abandoning her, and now many will look
My way.  I will even now receive them into My love.  Rise up My loves and
go forth with the fresh wind of glory, spreading it like the breathe of
fresh perfume to all who will desire Me now.  Go forth in the power of
the ones who have come through the fire!
     "And the peace of God, which passeth all
understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus" (Phil. 4:7) 
     "If any of you is deficient in wisdom, let him ask of the giving God [Who gives] to everyone liberally and ungrudgingly, without reproaching or faultfinding, and it will be given him." (James 1:5)
     "For though we walk (live) in the flesh, we are not carrying on our warfare according to the flesh and
using mere human weapons.  For the weapons of our warfare are not
physical [weapons of flesh and blood], but they are mighty before God
for the
overthrow and destruction of strongholds." (2 Corin. 10:3-4)
     "Lean on, trust in, and be confident in the Lord with all your heart and mind and do not rely on your own insight or understanding.  In all your ways know, recognize, and acknowledge Him, and He will direct and make straight and plain your paths." (Pro. 3:5-6)

Good morning,
     I
have allowed a time for developing and fine tuning your spiritual
hearing.  The steps that I have ordered for you will be effortless for
you to walk in now.  I have sent you winds to blow you on course and
dislodge everything that has settled in you.  Other strong winds that
twisted your course and caused you to be bewildered.  These winds are
coming against the winds of adversity and are assisting you onto the
road to your destiny.  This is My plan for your good, for even when you
have struggled, you did not quit, I have used those things to strengthen
you even more.  I Am aware of all that you have endured while you
continue to stand on My Word.  You must keep your heart pure and pliable
to Me.  I Am your God for good, I Am not against you.  Remember this
always, I Am not bankrupt nor have I depleted My resources for and to
you.  Do not tolerate the voice of the enemy as he whispers lies to you
about My plans for you.  He has no idea nor will he ever understand the
love I have for you.  I will bring you out! 
You
must not depend upon the thoughts of the flesh, for it always yields
more flesh.  Fleshly ideas lead to sin and death, so listen and follow
Holy Spirit.  He will lead you into My truth every time.  Practice being still to learn to follow.
     Understand that what you are seeing in this world serves only to bring
about the desired end.  I have not finished with the "shaking".  All these "shakings" are of everything
that men have depended on, and this must happen to bring as many as I
can to the end of themselves, so that they might begin to hear Me
calling.  It is my great mercy being extended now.  For this present
darkness will deepen, but at the same time My light will begin to shine
bright from all of My children.  The winds will continue to blow in My
House like never before.  There is no fear to all who stay hidden in Me.  There will be springtime in My House after a season of stillness, there
will arise a craving desire to do My Word at all cost.  Passionate and
unbridled love for Me and the Kingdom will come back to My House.  It
will be a fresh spring wind blowing and it will awaken the new.  Many
brave and bold believers have been born from the times of adversity and
they will walk in the heavenlies.  They will shake the trees of the
righteous and cause the fruit to be given and shared, not for fleshly
and selfish reasons or kingdoms, but for My glory.  These are clothed in
the garment of love.  They will wake up the weary ones
and resuscitate all who have longed to be revived and rejuvenated,
breathing more of Me into them by My Word purely given.  They will boldly
require and receive all that is at their disposal from heaven and cause
great forceful ripples of waves to be felt throughout My Church.  Waves
that will awaken My bride, and awaken My beloved, for springtime has
come and We will cover the mountains that have kept you at a great
distance.  I have brought us to the time of releasing My wind, fire, oil,
and water, into My Church all at once.  Get ready for what I have
prepared for you to walk in, it is beyond all understanding.  You will
see and understand that I have fortified through all that you have
endured.  You will see how strong I really am in you.
     "My
beloved spake, and said unto me, Rise up, my love, my
fair one, and come away; For, lo, the winter is past, the rain is over
and gone; The flowers appear on the earth; the time of the singing of
birds is come, and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land; The fig
tree putteth forth her green figs, and the vines with the tender grape
give a good smell.  Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away." (S.O.S.
2:10-14)
     "Be assured and understand that the trial and proving of your faith bring out endurance and steadfastness and patience.  But let endurance and steadfastness and patience have full play and
do a thorough work, so that you may be [people] perfectly and fully
developed [with no defects], lacking in nothing." (James 1:3-4)

Good morning,

     Here is another prophetic Word that was given this Sunday!

     In
more than one way, I do fight for My own, for I Am a mighty warrior.  I
have strategic plans that I always put into action on your behalf.  For I am seeing to your ways, making sure that you fulfill every destiny, every purpose, every plan that I have for you.  And you will not fail as long as you stay in my hand.  It
is when you remove yourself because of trouble, trials and tribulations
and
start listening to the wrong counsel that you place yourself without
the help, the aid and the assistance of the Holy Spirit.  All that I have
given you is to see to it that you make it, and you fulfill your very
purpose.  See to it, says the Lord, that you stay underneath the shadow of the most high God.  For
in so doing you will find strategic actions, plans, and steps to
take in order to complete every divine destiny and every assignment. You
will succeed says the Spirit of grace and mercy and nothing that the
enemy has can defeat you as long as you stay underneath my wings.  So
I say to you again my children, find yourself hidden, inaccessible to
the plans of the wicked one and in so doing you will find yourself
protected and safe, no matter what comes, no matter how it comes, no
matter who brings it says the Lord.  I will see to your ways, for I am your God, I am
your divine protection.  I am Jehovah Jireh, I see to it, I provide a way in advance, if you would only learn to trust me in all your ways.
     And there is no weapon.  And the minute you recognize that there is no weapon, you will do great damage in the kingdom of darkness.  The sons and daughters of the most high God they are arising now!  They’re
waking up from the slumber that the enemy has tried to keep them in, to
make them think that they have no power, they have no might, they have
no insight, they have no ability, but I have come to give you all those
things and much greater things!  And now you’re waking up and realizing, I
can do these things, the greater one abides in me, yes I can even walk in
love.  I can even love the most difficult person because of the greater one on the inside.
     "No
weapon that is formed against you shall prosper; and every tongue that
shall rise against you in judgement, you shall condemn; This is the
heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of Me
saith the Lord." (Is. 54:17)
     Little
children you are of God [you belong to Him] and you have already
defeated and overcome them [the agents of the antichrist], because He
who lives in you is greater,mightier than he who is
in the world. (1 John 4:4)
     Your arm is endued with power; your hand is strong, your right hand is
exalted.  Justice and judgment are the habitation of your throne; mercy and
truth shall go before your face. (Ps. 89:13-14)
     This final part is the word that was spoken to call the believer's to touch and agree to see the impossible!!
     "The word of God says wherever two touch and agree asking anything in His name, we have the
petition we desire.  That means that’s a yes and an amen, that means it’s sealed, that means it’s done, that’s Selah.  That means no matter what comes in your life and no matter how it comes, it’s already settled.  It’s already a done deal.  This morning, this day, February 10, 2013, it’s a done deal.  It’s a done deal.  It’s a done deal.  It’s settled, I have all the help I need.  I have all the help I’ll ever need.  It’s a done deal.  It’s
just like this man, he’s going over mountains and trails barefoot and
running, over briars and sticks and mud and rivers and all kinds of
things to get there.  And that’s how it is with our walk with God.  It seems like sometimes we have the most difficult circumstances but we keep going.  We may fall, but
the word of God says, “the righteous man may fall but he arises”.  He arises, he arises.  And if you stay long enough enemy, you’ll see us arise.  You stand around long enough, you’ll see us arise, for we recognize that your weapons can not defeat us. Let's touch and agree.  There’s a way out of this mess, see the devil will wish he would
n't have toched you.  Just like with Jesus, if he only knew, if he only knew, he would have never slain or crucified the Lord of glory.  And so it will be in your life, if he only knew, he would have never messed with you, he never would have come that way."

Good morning,
     This is a prophetic word that was given to me several months ago.  I pray that you are quickened to move deeper in your walk with God.
     The Spirit of the Lord says;
          Birth pangs have begun, these come as the beginning of sorrows.  They are increasing in their intensity and they will bring forth My wrath.  My wrath is not for My children, it is to those that I have wooed and consistently drawn to Me, and have not accepted My invitation and have rejected My salvation of love.  To My own children, you must be aware that My love will grow cold in the time of these birth pangs.  So your love walk must be on high alert and you must be very sensitive and discerning as to what genuine love looks like.  For the enemy will try to twist what you know as love.  He will try to get you to do things under the guise of My love, by manipulating what love does and looks like.  This is why it is important in this season that you know how I love, and when I let those I love, charter their own course.  There is a timing to My love and you must follow My example.  Living in My love will cause you to be more acquainted with My ways.
     Yet, even in the midst of these birth pangs there will be many of My children that will increase in their understanding of love for Me and their love will be more enhanced as well.  From the place of love they will be quick to obey.  Their ability to hear and understand will cause a new level of doing My Word.  I will give them a more detailed understanding in every area of their lives.  They will hearken and obey to new levels, which will open new doors to walking in greater works of the Spirit.  Right in the middle of the birth pangs, My wheat will shoot up over the tares that have been growing in My house.  The aroma of love will send them soaring to heights that few have experienced or known.  When you arise, many things that I have called you too, will arise also.  Many will come to you and lay at your feet their treasures and their insight into doing things, even in the market place.  You will recognize and understand that all is being done for the Kingdom, it  is not about building your own kingdom here on this earth.  It is about opening the way to the Kingdom wide, for all that will be ushered in.  All that you have gone through, all of your testing grounds have been for the advancement of the Kingdom, and to bless you in your obedience.  Now, you will learn to rejoice in all things, knowing that I Am working all things together for your good the love of My heart.
     Matthew 24:5-13 (read)
     Romans 8:28; "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose."
     Joshua 1:7-8; "Only be thou strong and very courageous, that thou mayestobserve to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded thee: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayest prosper withersoever thou goest.This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success."

Good morning,
     We will be sharing one of the prophecy given during one of our church
service.  We must go deeper to
understand the Word of God.  The prophetic words must line up with the
written Word of God, that is why we usually give scriptures that the
prophecies given.  We must ponder, selah and calmly think on this things.
     For I am gathering My loved ones from every venue, from every field,
from every avenue, from every hidden place and I’m bringing them under
the shelter.  And even as you asked Me to, “show my your glory” I will.  My glory is a hiding place, My glory is a protective place.  Every where My glory goes, it is a representative of My love and My protection.  So My glory will call you in and My glory will protect you in the days ahead.  My
arms alone are worthy, my arms alone are able to hold you and to
protect you and to provide for you even in the most difficult
circumstances, for I am Jehovah Jireh.  I
have sought ahead of the days that you’re coming to and I have already made provision for you.  So
take pleasure and take provision in Me, take joy in the fact that I am
your provider and I will see to all your needs for there is nothing that
will be missing from you.  There is nothing that will be broken from you, for I am your God.  I am the all seeing God, a God who will protect and provide.  Nothing
that has come to your life has taken Me off guard, for I have well
provided for you in the past and I will provide for you in the future.  I
Am the God that stays the same whether yesterday, today or forever, I
never change and my glory has made a habitation over all those who call upon My name and nothing can penetrate My glory says the Lord.  So as long as you stay hidden in Me nothing can penetrate you.  This is your safety, this is your place of protection, this is where you dwell says the Lord.  Live in me and I’ll live in
you and you will experience in the days ahead a divine supernatural provision.  Allow Me to be your glory, your everything.
     For
there is judgment coming and it’s already begun and if you’re found
outside of My glory, the circumstances of this world will overwhelm you,
but hidden and inaccessible to the things that will come upon the earth
and it will be a mild thing that you will see says the Lord.  For
I have not poured out My wrath, because I Am causing My people to
recognize who I really Am.  So that you begin to trust in Me, not
only as the lover
of your soul but as your provider, as your healer, as your deliverer,
as your sanctifier.  I will be and can be everything that you allow Me to be in your life.  And these are the days that My children will really begin to see Me as their glory, their covering.  It
will be in the times of difficulty that they will experience the
greatest of ease for they will have learned to rest in Me and they will
begin to see things that they have never seen before in the realm of the
Spirit and they will bring them down to earth and they will walk in and
live in it and this time they will bring many others in, under the
covering of this glory.  For wherever the glory is, the enemy could not
penetrate Israel.  But when they walked out from under My
glory, that is when the enemy came and so I say to you today, stay
beneath the glory, stay under the glory, stay under the anointing of
your Father.  Then you will look and see all the things that come upon
this world but it will not come nigh your dwelling for I Am your Father
and I Am good and I Am always good.  I Am always protecting and providing and taking care of my own.  I
will not forsake you nor leave you to your own devices but I will take
care of you,  only follow Me with your whole heart, and you will live in
the glory, says the Lord. 
      But
truly as I live and as all the earth shall be filled with the glory of
the Lord, Because all those men who have seen My glory and My
[miraculous] signs which I performed in Egypt and in the wilderness, yet
have tested and
proved Me these ten times and have not heeded My voice, Surely they
shall not see the land which I swore to give to their fathers; nor shall
any who provoked (spurned, despised) Me see it.  But My servant Caleb,
because he has a different spirit and has followed Me fully, I will
bring into the land into which he went, and his descendants shall
possess it." (Num.14:21-24)
      "This is what the Lord Almighty says: "In a little while I will once more shake the heavens and the earth, the sea and the dry land.  I will shake all nations, and what is desired by all nations will come, and I will fill this house with glory," says the Lord Almighty. "The silver is mine and the gold is mine," declares the Lord Almighty.  "The glory of this present house will be greater than the glory of the former house," says the Lord Almighty.  "And in this place I will grant peace,’ declares the Lord Almighty.” (Hag.
2:6-9)

Good morning,
     This will be the last walk
down memory lane.  The last prophetic word that I will be sharing from
the last two years that have to do with love, forgiveness, and us
staying away from offenses.  Remember 1 Corinthians 13:1-3; "If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.  If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and
if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.
  If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing. Do you get it?  We are nothing, we gain nothing, and we are just noise makers without
love.  We are not making any headway without walking in the love of god.  This year we must do God-love
in our churches, in our families, then to the world at large.  Here is
the word from January 2011.
     The Spirit of the Lord says;
     My dearly beloved, I hear and see the tears that you have cried over
being broken.  I desire you to know that in these moments, I draw closer
to you as a Father does to his child that has been hurt, rejected, or
forsaken.  I declare to you that you are My precious one, the apple of My
eye.  I will never treat you as those who have hard hearts, have done.  
Yet know that their insensitivity is because of their own pain.  Give to
them the compassion that they neglected to show you.  Your harvest of
love will come back manifold.  Always, always, show My kindness in the
face of hurt and pain.  I Am God, and I Am righteous to judge fairly.  I
will repay to everyone the seeds that they have sown.  I know the hearts
of men, and without Me there is nothing good in them.  That is why I Am
constantly wooing the rejected, the downcast, the forsaken, and the one
who is least.  I seek to save them from their own self-destruction.  My judgment is righteous and fair.  So, turn your
tears of hurt to tears of prayers, uttered for those who have inflicted
wounds.  Be like Me in your forgiveness.  Now stand back and see how I
will turn what the enemy meant to harm you into your finest hour.  They
meant it for harm, but I meant it for good, to save you and to bring you
out into a large place.
     There is a fresh season ahead for you.  Most of all I will bring you
into the place that I have prepared for you to show forth My glory.  Be
sure and know that your gifts will make room for you.  You will not be
disappointed with My purpose, trust Me, I will not fail to delight your
heart.  I still have great surprises planned for all that put their hope
in Me.  You will experience for yourself days of new liberation from
pain, hurts, and any form of rejection.  It will be as if you are dancing
in the sun, without the threat of rain.  You will know what it is to be
covered by My shade of favor.  You will see and know that a divine
healing has taken place in your heart.  All that the enemy lied to you
about and said that I would not heal you of, I will do it for My
pleasure in providing for you.  Stay ready for the changing of the
present circumstances, they will be swift and many will stand with
wonder at the speed
of change.  So do not allow yourself to be overwhelmed or depressed by
what you see.  For soon you will not see these enemies in your land
again.  Your destiny is one of great hope.  Believe only and you will see!
 
Love,

Pastor D.

Good morning,
     Today is another "selah" from
December 2011.  It is all about love and preferring one another and not
trying to offend or being easily offended.  Preferring means to put or set forward or before someone.  The someone being ourselves, we must learn this now.  "Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another;" (Rom. 12:10) "We
know that we have passed over out of death into Life by the fact that
we love the brethren (our fellow Christians).  He who does not love
abides (remains, is held and kept continually) in [spiritual] death". (1
John 3:14)
     The Spirit of the Lord says;    
      Do
not allow your feelings to lead or guide you.  Now you must live by
faith, which is not feeling based.  Here is where you must lean your
entire personality over on Me and keep your hand and your eyes on Me.  
Decisions made now centered on your feelings will surely end in ruin and
disaster.  Hear My voice clearly and watch My steps also.  Know Me and My
Word, for those who once followed Me and did not truly love Me will
find it difficult to hold on.  So it may seem as if you are walking
alone, but remember I always have many that have not bowed their knee to
the god of this world.  I am restoring joy and strength to many that
stood through the difficult tests and trials, those who have endured
hardness as My soldiers will shine forth as a great city of light.  
Instead of failing, they have learned how to overcome by the blood and
the Word of
their testimony.  When tested, tempted, and tried they withstood the
enemy's beguiling voice of deceit.  As in any war, it is the
front-liner's who are assaulted the most.  Yet, when they outlast all
attacks, they receive the greatest reward and spoils.  Rewards of honor
and valor, things that distinguish them from all others who march
alongside them.
     Do
not let the tactics of the wicked one cause you to become offended, for
many of your loved ones may lend their members to offend in this
season.  Many who oppose Me may be found in your own household, these are
signs of the times and of My soon return.  You must keep on walking to
higher places in Me.  Run with those who are running to win, not those
who have let the love of this world's system overtake their love for Me. 
Remember I have foretold you that people would be lovers of themselves,
haters of those who do good.  So you must subdue your feelings, for the
enemy desires for you to make strategic moves based only on what you
feel.  You must realize that these choices would cause chaos in your
life.  Now is when you must pursue the enemy with the Word, war with the
promises that I have given unto you.  My Word will stand through it all,
every violent attack against you was sent as a missile to
bring you down.  I expect My warriors to rise with the weapons of
warfare that I have placed at your disposal.  They are mighty to bring
you through to victory!  Stay safe underneath the shadow of My wings!
 
Love,

Ears to Hear/Hearts to Obey

Good morning,
     At the beginning of the year, our church, like many other churches start the year off with days of fasting.  Our fast is for 21 days, it is receiving communion and taking the Word of God concerning our stand for the year.  Whether we are believing for healing, deliverance, restoration, etc., we are pairing it with verses that we will confess while partaking the Body and the Blood.  Also, our messages both preached and prophetic have been on love, forgiving, and not being easily offended.
     For about a month now the Lord has been telling me to pull up the "words"that were given on the blog concerning love, forgiving, and staying free of offense.  So for the next few blogs we will have reminders.  You will notice, that as always the Spirit of God prepares us well in advance.  These words were years ago.  That is why we are to write the Word of God in our hearts so that it will become a part of us.  That is why it will come up in us as we are going on our way.  "Bind them continually upon your heart and tie them about your neck.  When you go, they shall lead you; when you sleep, they shall keep you; and when you waken, they shall talk with you." (Pro.6:21-22) Selah, pause and calmly think on these words.  This prophetic word is July 29, 2011.
 
Good morning,
 
The Spirit of the Lord says;
 
     Understand this and take to heart that the plan of the enemy is to keep your eyes and mind on all of the trouble and chaos that he keeps stirred up around you.  Do not quickly forget that I have said, "in the time of trouble I will hide you safe in My pavilion and under the shadow of My wings."  My desire is that you would learn to keep your eyes and your mind stayed on My goodness to you.  Goodness and mercy are on assignment from heaven to do you good.  You must stay readily accessible by pressing into the hiding place that I have for you.  There you have access to the Kingdom, all that you need for recovery, restoration, and a refreshing.  Yes, I have given to you all that is needful to live a victorious life.
     You are standing at the dawn of your breakthrough, do not be deceived now.  This is where the enemy will pull out all the wicked spirits of offenses, bitterness, and unforgiveness.  Your thoughts and your words you must put a watch on and cast them down.  You do possess authority over them.  Remember your fight is not against people, but against principalities, powers, against rulers of the darkness of this present world, and against spiritual wickedness in high places.  Here is where the spirit of deception will turn my children against one another, fighting in the House, instead of against the enemy.  This will cause you to be defeated when you fight against those who I am for.  In war, many times there is fire sent out that can hurt and maul their own allies.  This confusion is a smoke screen to keep you from receiving what you have labored and believed for.  Once you step through the opening, the light that you will have will be greater than what you had before the storm came.  What you have glanced at in the shadows shall be clearly known.  I make darkness light, and the crooked places straight!  More than before, you must stay glued by love to the members of My Body that I have connected you with, this is for your healing and your deliverance."  Take refuge and be confident in Me until the calamities pass, for I Am your hiding place.
     The dawn of our breakthrough is dependent upon our response.  We must keep our hearts pure, and stay in love, quick to forgive, and not be easily offended.  Next time we will dig in the archives and see how the Spirit of the Lord warned, taught, and prepared us before now.  He was giving to us time to get in cadence with the Kingdom.
 
Love,

Ears to Hear/Hearts to Obey

Good morning,

     This year we must expect to
see God's great grace over and upon our weaknesses and our inabilities.  I
am not going to say a "blanket" statement, like, "if you don't expect
this great extraordinary grace, then you won't see it", but God wants
us to look for it with anticipation.  You must grow up this year in that
grace, we can no longer afford to be prey for the enemy's tactics and
lies.  We must allow this grace to cover us, especially where we are
weak.  Emotional weaknesses, character weaknesses, physical and financial
weaknesses covered by His ability and power.  "But He said to me, My grace (God's power and ability) is enough for you [sufficient against any danger [emotional, physical, etc] and enables you to bear the trouble manfully]; for My strength and power are made perfect (fulfilled and completed) and show themselves most effective in [your]
weakness
.  Therefore, I will all the more gladly glory in my weaknesses
and infirmities, that the strength and power of Christ (the Messiah)
may rest (yes, may pitch a tent over and dwell) upon me." (2 Corin.
12:9)
From
this verse alone, I have received insight concerning this coming grace
and glory.  I am not boasting in myself, I am humbly repeating to you
what has been shown me.  All who receive this grace will move over into
the area of exploits for the Kingdom and for our God!  Always, the key is
to stay humble, for Abba says this;
"Let the brother in humble circumstances glory in his elevation [as a Christian, called to the true riches and to be an heir of God]," (James 1:9)  "But He gives us more and more grace (power of the Holy Spirit, to meet this evil tendency and all others fully).  That is why
He says, God sets Himself against the proud and haughty, but gives grace [continually] to the lowly (those who are humble enough to receive it)." (James 4:6) 
Those
who are humble enough to receive it, means they will not allow their
weaknesses to stop them or back up or give up, they simply go ahead and
allow the grace to meet that evil tendency with all of the forefront and
the back-up of God's power and ability to meet any evil tendency!  Next
week we will talk a little more about this extraordinary grace!  It is
your now, receive it and move with His grace.  As I close here is a short
and powerful word that was given on New Year's Eve, receive it for
yourself.  {We were going over a bridge, when He begin to speak] Expect
God to show up at all times.  Go and be blessed this year like never
before.
     The Spirit says;
     Crossing over, crossing over.  Look at this bridge, this is a new bridge.  You will cross over many new bridges.  Bridges are being made for you to cross over.  Crossing over things that were too hard for you in the past.  Areas that were torn down in your lives before, I Am erecting new bridges to cause you to cross over and do what I planned for you to do from the beginning.  Every Pharaoh that tried to prevent you, no matter what avenue this unrighteous enemy arose from, will be brought down.  Every
promise will be fulfilled, every purpose will be done.  This
extraordinary grace will make it seem sweat-less, or easy for you.
     You
are going to know on the inside, by your spirit man that this was your
God, that this is your Father.  That I did this and right then and there
you are going to stop and give Me all the glory and great praise will
come from you.  I Am revealing and manifesting Myself in a new way to
you, it is not new to Me, but to you.  It is not going to be the same
old things.  You are going to know Me, really know Me.  It will not be like
previous years or anything you have seen in a continual manner.  You
will be right on with Me, more right on than you have ever
been before.  That is why there will be a revolution of My signs,
wonders, and demonstration of Holy spirit.  My children will grow up and
take their place in the Kingdom and do what they were created to do.  They will shake this world with My Presence
and a Holy revolution!
 
Love,

Pastor D.
