Good morning,
     My dear loved ones I know that many have experienced a great fight against the forces of darkness.  The spirit of depression and oppression have found weak individuals in My house, that have not yielded their members to Me, and he has been operating through them.  Now hear me, some of you have opened doors to the wicked one, by the words that you have spoken over others that are in My house.  Yes, they have missed it and have made errors in their walk with Me.  Sometimes their errors and the hardness of their hearts, have offended you and often it was intentional.  I know the heart of man! 
     Hear the voice of My Spirit; those who are 'spiritual' must walk in a higher divine love.  When this happens, when others in My house hurt and offend on purpose, or out of ignorance, I Am aware, I search the heart of man.  It may continue for a period of time, but you who are spiritually mature should pray that I will bring revelation and healing to that embittered heart.  Offer mercy for a seed.  Do not begin to crucify them with your words, your prayers or your confessions against that soul.  Pray in the Spirit, for with the same measure that you mete to them, it is the same measure that will be met to you.  Be assured that there will be a time that you are misunderstood, and then you can draw from the pool of forgiveness that you have given to another brother in My house.  Everyone is in a process and the enemy desires to pull back the covers and allow you to see what I Am doing in secret in another person's life.  Understand when this is allowed, it is to see what is in your heart.  Will you cover your brother's nakedness as Shem and Japheth did for their father, Noah?  Or will you leave them exposed, to further shame them as Ham did?  Have you not read that I will forget about that person's sin and turn to you?  So, stay in My love, it covers a multitude of sins.  When I expose it is to give an opportunity for repentance and restoration, not to shame.  Have My heart and My mind, then you will always arise as light and will be in the place to receive My anointing and more of My glory.  For when you do unto others as you want them to do to you, you are setting yourself up to be blessed.  Your seed will come forth unto a harvest of righteousness.  Do not render to them according to their works, no, for then you have set yourself up as the Vindicator.  I will repay!  You are sowing seeds of love for your harvest, not theirs.
     You are always sowing for a harvest and you will always reap according to what you have done, not according to what they have done.  Higher living requires single vision and single mindedness!  Do not allow the enemy to pull you into his arena, for then your results can only come from the flesh.  Your sowing of 2011 has begin to determine your harvest of 2012.  Before any wicked seed take root, you have been given time to uproot them now, now is the opportunity for you to place the 'good' seed in the ground.  You can choose your harvest, do not give that power over to anyone else.  Let all who have offended you go!  Let all who continue to offend go, you must not let that root of bitterness destroy or put off what We are going to do this year!  I Am adding the finishing touches this year to My plan and I need My children's hearts to be pure so that your hearing is acute and your ability to do is not ensnared by offenses.  We have much to do and I need you to be free and stay free in order to do it and no longer prolong Our set time!
     Here is the verses that I have been meditating on this past week.  "But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.  Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds; And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him: (Col.3:8-10)  "Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.  And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.  And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful." (Col.3: 12-15) Father wants His children to work at getting along and work together to bring His plan forth.  Let's put His plan first, then He will bless what we do in His name!

Love,

Pastor D.

Good morning,

I would like to share what I have been hearing the Lord speaking to me this week.

     For the next few months I Am arising with healing in My wings.  Healing for all who have trusted Me, yes, soundness, wholeness in every area of life.  For My mercy is falling like rain, for all who will believe and step out into it.  My great healing mercy will flow into families, churches, communities, everywhere My people have set the environment for Me.  It is only a foretaste of what I have in store for My precious ones.  All of you who have represented me in their daily lives, touching all who I have sent you to, you will receive a double portion of My anointing.  That is why I disperse you abroad in divers places, in the market places, in the government, in the schools, neighborhoods, and especially in the religious arena.  The arena, where people call on My name, but do not do what I command them to do.   My Spirit will be felt in the most difficult and hardened places because My children have been praying and interceding for an awakening, and I Am hearkening to their consistent cry.  I have equipped fully all that stand as faithful to My call to walk in signs, wonders, and the miraculous, snatching souls from hell's fire.
     Even so more of My children have been faithful watchmen over My house.  I have been purging and cleaning My house for a long time, so now more of My glory will be released in greater intensity and in longer measures.  Prepare for more visitation of angels.  I Am opening portals of My glory to flush out any remaining remnants of residual flesh and it's sinful ways.  I Am preparing My bride to walk in her white.  Finally, you will walk in My wisdom and move in ways unknown to this world.  I Am revealing My secrets to those who have humbled themselves before Me.  Because of your yielded heart to serve and to please Me, I Am opening revelation, making it easier for you to have My mind on the course of life.  My children will experience a rush of heavenly encounters and aid, as they have practiced being still and knowing and recognizing Me.  Messengers, angels, that are always working on your behalf, who love worship and true worshipers, will cross the realm of the unseen to the seen realm more frequently.  Take notice that you do not go seeking these encounters, but just expect those times of heaven touching earth.  As you avail yourself to Me, in times of waiting, drawing closer to Me, you will become more sensitive to the things of heaven.
     "Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought: But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory: Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.  But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.  But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.  For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him?  Even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.  Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.  Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.  But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.  But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.  For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him?  But we have the mind of Christ." (1 Corin. 2:6-16) These are the verses that I have been meditating on.

Good morning,
     This is the word that the Lord spoke to me this morning. I hope that you meditate on it and receive it for yourself. We are coming into a contrasting time to what we have walked through in the past.  More and more grace will abound to all who believe in Him.  Who hold steadfast to His promises.  We are walking out of the shadows into His marvelous Light!
     Many of My children have allowed a spirit of discontentment and murmuring to steal their testimony.  Having run the race with the right heart, they have let too many entanglements from the world rob them of the greatest joys that I have in store for them.  I have set watchmen all along the road to keep My standard raised high.  Yet, they have listened to lies rather than My truth.  They have traded My truth for the temporary feelings that are fed by monumental lies of the wicked one.  All the while I have been correcting errors in the way they perceive and receive Me and the Kingdom. 
     Quite often My little ones, when I Am constructing My plan for your life, there are many crooked places that have taken years to be built.  My original plan has many intricate details that I Am constantly unwinding.  You must wait, yes, wait patiently as I work the plan.  I have not revealed fully what I Am doing in You.  This next twelve months will bring an unusual time of refreshing in you My plan.  I Am doing a new thing in you and yet I have spent the last four years bringing you to a place of surrender.  The fire was to prove what kind of trust you had for Me, while I removed great imperfections and weights.  Many were transformed into My image to a greater level, while some refused My love.  I love all those that I chastise, for they are My children.  It is because of My love for you that I sent correction through My ministers.  Some of My obedient ones recognized that I used My ministers to help keep them on the straight and narrow way, while others cut off the cords of their lifeline.  They resisted Me, and still I sent others to try and get them to put their foot on the right path to their destiny.  I have stayed silent along time, but now know that I Am about to shout and all will know.  For I will arise for the sake of My righteous ones who continue in My Word and continue in My love, they have cried out for justice.  I Am on alert for My righteous, obedient, believing ones, and I hear and I will hearken to them.  The enemy has tried with all his might to torment My righteous ones, but they stayed with My Word.  I will reward them openly, I already know that they will remain humble.  I Am lifting up those that were brought low, and I Am bringing low all that lifted themselves up.  Watch and see the humble will be exalted, those who have humbled themselves under My Word.  No one will be able to stop what I Am going to do in their lives within the next twelve months.  They will laugh and truly rejoice in what I will do in the day to day portion that I will pour mightily on them.  They have allowed Me to govern their lives and now I will cause many to give to them in significant ways!  I promised it and I will do it.
   
Love,

Pastor D.

Good Morning,
This is a Word that i received this morning in prayer;
Keep your eyes on Me. I realize that for most of My children this is a task. For many have not yielded to the training that is necessary in having a single vision. Too long My children have had roving eyes, always gazing around at every thing and everyone around. I know the path to take to bring you to higher ground. If you would keep your eyes fixed upon what I Am doing. You would see that the curtains are drawn back in order to provide you more insight to the next move for the Kingdom. Heaven and earth are about to kiss, and when this happens there will be poured out upon humanity the best and the worst all at once. For those who have made Me their safe haven, it will be the fullest and the greatest times. Yet, those who have stubbornly resisted Me and my life, it will be an opening of a dark abyss. For My children will begin to walk in the times of My glory being poured out in it's fullest for the earth. It will be like the sudden anointing that Saul walked in and was thought to be as one of the prophets. It was not his call to walk in the office of a prophet, but it was a view of My free flowing anointing, where you will become another man. Yet he knew it was of Me and not him. Even so shall all who keep their eyes on Me and mature in their love walk, will experience a new level of My anointing. It will come upon you suddenly to fulfill My purpose in this season. My sons and daughters will prophesy, and will be new as you stay under the spout of this great anointing. Those who are called in the ministry of apostles, prophet, evangelists, pastors, and teachers, will have greater revelation, and have deeper insight to mysteries. No one knows all that there is to know of Me, but I Am causing many to hear more clearer and to see with sharper vision, those secret things. This is not even the best to come, for those who have grown in My love will begin to prefer one another. They will submit one to another, and fulfill my joy. All heaven has awaited this day; When My people are mature and the time of love has come. When My people become one as We are One. This sets the atmosphere and I will come and receive her unto Myself. I have seen your future and it is good!
Love,
Pastor D.

Good morning,
Today the Lord was speaking to me about "standing strong in peace".  I wrote it down to share with you.
     "Be faithful in all the small things that I have told you to do.  In so doing every step that you take from obedience will bring you to the next level.  Remember that every step is preparation for your destiny.  Be patient as you continue to fulfill the plan that I have for you.  Your stand in the plan of promise will cause you to walk straight into the victory that I ordained for you.  Even when the enemy tries to block, stop, or detain you, let him know that you mean business, and stand strong.  Stand strong in My peace!  I Am your peace, and your obedience to every step causes you to live in a place of peace.  It does not matter what the circumstances say, I Am has spoken and will bring you to the place of fulfillment.  You remained in My provided refuge when storms raged against you, because you love My Word.
     Now to you My faithful child, it is time for you to prepare to enjoy a fresh new season.  You can come out into the shining of a new day.  Consider this as your times of refreshing, that has come as reward for your faithfulness to Me and My Word.  In this refreshing will come freedom to walk in sign, wonders, and miracles.  It will be as natural to you as breathing.  You will know that this season is to usher in as many souls into the Kingdom as possible.  Many will come to the 'rising' of My children, to see if you know your God.  Because you have spent time in the secret place getting to know Me, they will know that you have been with Me.  I have given a reprieve to the world at large so that My children will arise and carry out to the fullest My plan.  Once you are strengthened and prepared to carry out to the full My plan, then the world will speed toward it's purpose.  You will shine with My glory and those lying in darkness will go towards the light, and I will make their darkness light.  Many will continue on in darkness, for they prefer it over the light, they love evil.  My peace gives you the ability to stay tuned to Me and the next step that I have for you.  All of the transitioning and repositioning is for your good, take Me at My Word.  So stand in My peace and be not moved!"
 
Love,

Pastor D.

Good morning,
The Spirit of the Lord says;
     I will always have a generation of warriors who are willing to walk in the realm of the Spirit with demonstrations of sign, wonders, and miracles.  Arising from the ashes is coming My army that has been in preparation for the times that lie ahead.  This new breed of conquerors will cause many of My front-line runners to begin to brush off their running shoes,in order to keep up.  They have been practicing by doing My Word on a consistent basis.  They have great evidence and confidence in Me and My abilities.  They have kept fear at bay by knocking it down with great tenacity and perseverance.  Their diligence shames the enemy and he cannot stop them, though he has tried many times.  This mighty army is totally persuaded that My Word is all powerful and that My protection is sufficient.  Many of My 'end time warriors' will give aid to places where My Word's fire has gone out, for they have My heart and passion and their desire for the Kingdom consumes them.  The fire in them will heat up all that want more of Me, and at the same time burn down places that reject Me.  Their minds have been made up and their hearts are fixed trusting in Me.  And there is nothing that I will withhold from them.  Heaven's portals are open wide over them, and they are willing to receive every gift that is available to them.  I do not have to convince them that I Am for them, they know this assuredly!  By their knowing they freely receive all.  In the past I have had to plead and implore with My children to believe that I only had the best in My heart for them.  I was limited in what I could do by their belief or unbelief, but this generation of warriors are open, ready, and willing. 
     These 'end time warriors' will usher in a desperation for all of Me.  They will not be denied and I will not deny them anything that they ask according to My Word.  They are increasing in strength and are very forceful against the kingdom of darkness, using all that have been given to them from heaven's open doors.  The wind that thrust them forward is the true foundation of My love that keeps them motivated to go forward.  They will not quit!  Any of you can be one of My great 'end time warriors'.  All you need to do is simply believe that I Am able to help you master any sin, iniquity, weakness, addiction, or anything that has lied to you and kept you from soaring.  So come up to where the elevation is lighter and easier.  To the place where you can see from afar and with greater clarity.  Where living for Me and with Me becomes simple, because you have yielded to believing!  The high place is choosing My Word and yielding to My Spirit.
     And we receive from Him whatever we ask, because we [watchfully] obey His orders [observe His suggestions and injunctions, follow His plan for us] and [habitually] practice what is pleasing to Him. (1 John 3:22)

Good morning,
The Spirit of the  Lord says;
     Restoration of health, your tranquility, your deliverance, will be as a refreshing wind that blows upon your way.  Salvation is My rescue of you, and I complete and perfect all that I touch.  I leave nothing incomplete, I will completely restore and cure all that concerns you.  Your sons and daughters shall come from afar and return to the God of their fathers and mothers.  Many lies have been told you concerning your seed and your seed's seed, but I Am a God that keeps covenant with all that love and obey Me.  I will not allow one of My good promises that I have given to you concerning salvation for your household to fall to the ground.  Even now I Am performing My Word concerning you.  Haven't you read that before that great and terrible day comes, that I will turn the hearts of the children back to the fathers and turn the fathers heart back to their children.  Though the enemy has been stout against them to try and destroy the vine and lay waste to the tree that I purposed them to be, remember I heal from the root in order to produce better fruit.   Because you do not cease to cry out and believe Me for their lives, I hear and answer.  The assignment against them has been canceled by your diligent pursuit of Me and hearkening to obey Me.
     I Am calling all who call on My name from a pure heart to return to your first love.  For intimacy with Me will cause you to be close enough to hear My whispered order.  Sanctify yourselves for the day by purifying your ways as well as your thoughts.  I Am your Helper!  I will send to all that will be zealous, new wine and your vats shall begin to overflow with fresh oil.  You will find that I Am fresh in giving to you new and creative ideas, concepts, and plans to deliver all that would be saved from the valley of indecision.  Always remember that My ways are higher than your ways.  You must not try to use the power of your hand to deliver, only the power of My hand can truly deliver.  In order that you may know that it is I the Lord that dwells in the Holy place who will drip down new wine from the mountains and cause the hills in your life to flow with new milk, I will send it now in the valleys, and they will be filled with My blessings.  You will begin to ascend to the high places, bringing all of the treasured souls with you.  The plowmen will overtake the reapers, so be ready by staying intimate with Me and My Word.  There in the secret place I will speak to you and you will hear and obey Me and the world will quake under the power of us being united.  My purpose will be fulfilled, and all who love and obey Me will walk under the umbrella of My grace.
 
Love,

Pastor D.

Good morning,
The Spirit of the Lord says;
     It is time that the Kingdom take first priority in the lives of true lovers of Mine.  Upon the horizon will arise a great shout, that will signify the beginning of a great refreshing wind.  This wind will blow things out as well as blow things in!  I am ushering in a season for a great harvest of souls.  Many are weary of this world system and they are searching for Truth.  I have placed each of you in strategic position and places to move with Me at just the right time to bring in the great haul of souls.  Get ready to be busy about the Father's business!  For night is on the horizon, when not much work can be done.  Be My children of the day, and do not stumble around as if you do not have a Guide.  Also know that many who were working in My fields have grown near-sighted, they have forgotten that I see from afar.  They have put their hope in man's ability, craftiness, and wisdom.  Remember, everything in this world apart from Me has it's limits and boundaries.  New wine will not fit into old wine skins, it will burst.  I make all things new.  Everything that you have gone through has been in preparation so that you will be able to labor unselfishly in the Kingdom.  Yes, for you too have been brought to the Kingdom for such a time as this.  At the same time that I will bring in new babies, there will be those who would not hold steady for this new season.  They gave up and left My House, but many will come back stronger and faithful to Me forever more.
     I speak to the watchmen of My Kingdom to arise and shake the ashes of bereavement from your eyes.  It will take all of My Spirit to walk in this time of great outpouring of all that is good.  Limited thinking of man's mind will not be able to keep up with what I will do in this next season.  All who will yield to Me and My plan will be able to run with Me.  Our time is limited in this season, but together we can accomplish great things.  Yet, you must be wiser still, by yielding to My higher way.  I will give My wisdom freely to all who wait and watch at My gate.  I Am causing your eyes to see every opportunity to advance the Kingdom.  You will seize it without fear or intimidation.  I have already provided all things necessary to get the ultimate results.  That is why I Am placing around you a shield of favor.  I have caused your enemy to bless your path.  You will be thought of in high regard, where in the past you were mistreated or rejected.  Out of the ashes of trials, tests, and tribulations, there will arise giants of faith.  What you thought you could not do before, now you know that there is nothing that is difficult with Me.  You thought you would be destroyed, but look I have caused a new, bold, strong you to come forth from the fire.  This is the beginning of My end-time Church.  The ones that have been washing and purging themselves from all that would stain and blemish, will be perfumed with the fragrance of the Kingdom.  The whole creation has waited for you to arise, My sleeping beauty.
      For it is written, I will baffle and render useless and destroy the learning of the learned and the philosophy of the philosophers and the cleverness of the clever and the discernment of the discerning; I will frustrate and nullify [them] and bring [them] to nothing.  Where is the wise man (the philosopher)?  Where is the scribe (the scholar)?  Where is the investigator (the logician, the debater) of this present time and age?  Has not God shown up the nonsense and the folly of this world's wisdom?  For when the world with all its earthly wisdom failed to perceive and recognize and know God by means of its own philosophy, God in His wisdom was pleased through the foolishness of preaching [salvation, procured by Christ and to be had through Him], to save those who believed (who clung to and trusted in and relied on Him). [1 Corin. 1:19-21]  This is how we will run with God by simply preaching the simplicity of the Good News!!

Good morning,
The Spirit of the Lord says;
     The moratorium has been lifted, the waiting is over!  I placed you for awhile in My hiding place until you were completely broken, and pulled up, so that I could set you up.  My chosen ones have rent their hearts, not only the outer works.  For only from this place of being broken can I truly build and plant.  The difficulty has always been when you are trying to build on what others have begun in your past.  You will keep repeating the same weakness from your previous generations.  When you fight against Me as I clear the ground to plant, and you keep throwing old seeds into my garden, it will tend to bring only confusion to you.  I want to lay a foundation that no other can compare too, but you must let Me tear down and destroy the old foundations in order to begin anew.  I will not fight against your will, you must be willing.  To those who have resisted, I ask, are you not tired of the results of trying to be your own God?
     In this present season, many will receive a harvest that they did not expect, for they only planted what they thought was best.  Yet they deceived themselves to believe a lie.  It will not be good for them.  Many would not heed My voice as I spoke clearly and often to them to pluck up the seeds that they planted.  At the same time and quite often in the same house, there will be those who obeyed that will reap a harvest that will delight and overwhelm them.  These are My hero-warriors, those who did  not quit or run from the transition.   They allowed Me to do the necessary clearing of the land in their hearts.  It was hard at times but they endured, now they will come forth as gold, pure gold!  For all who have rent their hearts and changed their minds to meet up to My conditions, I will leave a greater blessing than they can believe.  There is nothing that you have lost in the past season that I will not restore to you double during this harvest season.  I must remind you of this, your heart is the most important ground.  That is why you must guard and keep your heart, and have your eyes and mind fixed on the goal of the Kingdom.
     Meditate on this: "But He knows the way that I take [He has concern for it, appreciates, and pays attention to it].  When He has tried me, I shall come forth as refined gold [pure and luminous].  My foot has held fast to His steps; His ways have I kept and not turned aside.  I have not gone back from the commandment of His lips; I have esteemed and treasured the words of His mouth more than my necessary food." (Job 23:10-12) This is what the "Enoch" generation will look like and talk like.  Our Father knows what it has taken to get us to the place of total surrender to His will and He will be merciful as He burns all of the dross away to bring forth the highest treasure in us.  Hey, He said the moratorium is over!  I can't wait to see what is about to be unveiled!

Good morning,
     For the past two nights I have had a recurring dream.  I awake in a field, it appears to be harvest time, for all around I see rows of growth.  Every field seems green and opulent.  I walk through to investigate each row, touching and admiring each as I go, happy that I have such a great return off of the seeds that I have sown and tended.  The first row bears a sign in front that represents my "financial harvest return", my giving to ministries as well as to individuals.  Another row bore a sign of "my time", it is time that I had sown into people's lives, it seemed as productive as the first [being that I am a pastor, it looked alright].  On and on it went until I came to a depressed, pitiful row.  There was not much growth there.  It had been overlooked, it was full of weeds, with a few young upstarts.  It had obviously been unattended.  I started to just ignore this row.  One poor row out of so many excellent ones, what did it matter?  The sign said, "do unto others"!  I turn to leave and that's when this little old man that was working in this row came over and spoke with such strength, that I immediately knew that it was the Lord speaking.  He said…
     "So many missed opportunities to plant this seed, one that would add life to all that you have planted.  It is a seed that I prefer, to esteem those who have lightly esteemed you.  To treat them the exact way that you wanted them to treat you.  Yet, you withheld the seeds that would have caused this field to come back to you in an abundant harvest.  Many of My children let this part of their gardens become abandoned or fall into neglect.  They tend only to pay attention to their feelings here, now that is when selfish ambition mounts up, the desire to defend and protect oneself, to dictate their momentary course of action.  Here, when they do not choose to walk My higher road, they yield, with concern only for their welfare, forgetting that I Am their vindicator.  I will repay all men everything done in the flesh, and for the motives and the secret intents of the heart.  Remember always that your whole life is a garden, seeds sown that will bring an eventual harvest.  Seeds that are sown to the flesh bring only corruption.  No matter what, you must recognize that all harvests bear and produce after the nature of the seed.  That is why you must never let anyone else determine your harvest.  You put them in charge of your harvest, when you allow other people's indifference, hatred, bitterness, rejection, or any bad feelings towards you, causing you to sow seeds from the flesh, the same feelings back to them.  Change your harvest by doing only to others as you would have them do to you.  It is your harvest after all!  Do not look at what you are getting from that person, but look with the eyes of the harvest, look beyond with My eyes, knowing that I Am multiplying your seeds sown.  Good "Spirit" seeds bring good "Spirit" harvest.  It is an eternal investment not a momentary pleasure of "justifiable feelings".  You have everything necessary to change your harvest, it is in your seed sown.  You choose.
     When he finished speaking to me.  I took a breathe and blew upon the dilapidated row and it begin to grow as if in a fast motion.  Blooms came up, colors spread all around.  The smells were aromatic and intoxicating, this row exceled all the rest.  At the same time every other row benefited from the growth of this one!
Love,

Pastor D.
