Good Morning,

The Spirit of the Lord says;

    This is a season of dual purposes.  Always,
My purpose is being performed in the yielded vessel.  I Am uprooting,
tearing down, destroying and overthrowing those temporal values, and at
the same time I Am building up and planting those eternal
values in your lives.  It may look like things are shattering and
falling apart, but hold on to My promises.  I Am establishing a firm
foundation in the areas that have been built upon sandy shores.  Trust
Me, I will not abandon you.  I know that a dark cloud is trying to cause
a spirit of oppression.  The light, the light that can cause a
quickening is found only in My Word.  My light, My Word will guide you
daily and it will reflect far into the future for those steps also.  As
pressure and stress bear down on you, find joy in My commands.  I will
make you walk along the path of My instructions, for that is where your
happiness can be found.  I will help you to keep your eyes from
worthless
things and give you life through My Word.

    Our strength is in our God. "If you fail under pressure, your strength is to small." (Prov. 24:10) 
"Endure suffering along with me, as a good soldier of Christ Jesus. 
Soldiers don't get tied up in the affairs of civilian life, for then
they cannot please the officer who enlisted them. (II Timothy 2:3-4
)  We
must not allow this smoke-screen of living to blur our vision.  Our
real purpose is to stay on target by taking care of the family
business.  That is what pleases God.  Paul said it this way
; "I Am willing to endure anything if it will bring salvation and eternal glory
in Christ Jesus to those God has chosen." (II Timothy 2:10)  "Work
hard so you can present yourself to God and receive His approval." (II Timothy 2:15
)
    Let's work at keeping ourselves pure, at a time when the lines become blurred.  Focus, get the smoke out of your eyes.
(I John 2:15-17); "Do not love this world nor the things it offers
you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the
Father in you.  For the world offers only a craving for physical pleasure [lust of the flesh], a craving for everything we see [lust of the eyes], and the pride in our achievements and possessions [pride of life]. These are not from the Father, but are from this world.  And this world is fading away, along with everything that people crave.  But anyone who does what please God will live forever."
  
Let's keep an eternal perspective, looking beyond today's temporary
desires, longings, afflictions, and testings.  Those things that we feel
are vital to our lives, could come under the categories of the,
"the lust of the flesh [craving for physical pleasures]; the lust of the eyes [craving for everything we see]; and the pride of life [pride in our achievements and possessions] and they are temporal and of this world.

We are eternal and not of this world!
 
Love,

Pastor D.

Good Morning,

This is the Word that the Spirit spoke to us Sunday morning:

    Allow Me to move!  As My Spirit moves, you will have supernatural insight and council.  The set time has come for you!  For you have stayed awestruck and fascinated with Me and you have always been the apple of My eye.  You will not allow what you see to silence you from praising and worshiping Me.  Your continuous attention to Me has made your angels stay before Me with your petitions and prayers.  You have determined to have more and more of Me, and more you shall have.  You have not ceased to cry out for more of My glory and because of your earnest yearnings, new doors are opening for you.

    I know that you have held fast to My promises, held tighter during this season of difficulty.  It has been the toughest fight of faith up til this hour, and you will receive the crown of glory for your stand.  For you have withstood the enemies tactics.  I say, "look up your redemption draws near."  Your time has come and I will favor you, because you have favored Me and stayed the course.  You will receive all that is needed for you to be the head.  Your God is about to do exploits in your life.  Those who know you and watched you and have seen the changes going on in your life, they will be amazed at how easy you transition.  I will be all over you in the transitioning steps as your new doors are flung open wide.  I have closed doors that were opened and brought you nothing but turmoil and destruction.  Now I am broadening your highway and making it easier to navigate.  As you have learned to wait on Me, you will be restored and catapulted into the arena that I designed for you.  Your never ending love for Me and for the family has set you on the right path.  Being set on loving even when it has been hard, has elevated you.  Your steadfastness with Me and love for Me has made you see clearly, even when others have not been able to catch My vision.  I Am your exceeding great reward.  Get ready to see how great I Am!

    You have faithfully applied kindling to keep the fire burning.  In a little while I will set a blazing fire within, it will be the hottest that it has ever been for you.  I Am going to add new fuel to the flame.  Because you're on fire you will set your new courses on fire too.  It will be all about the Kingdom, your love for Me and all that I Am will fuel this fire.  Your sincere tears for more of Me and your pursuit of Me have brought you to the fullness of time.  Here it comes like fresh new fire!  This fire shall cause the light in you and around you to be greatly enhanced.  You are truly My light, the city on a hill.  Burning brightly, saying, "this is the way, walk in it."

Love,

Pastor D.

Good Morning,

The Spirit Of The Lord Says;
 
  

    My little eagles were flying high, soaring
to places within their spiritual skies.  Then the enemy of their soul
sent gale storm winds to blow them down and ground them.  As they
appeared to be grounded, their wings, their strength and their courage
begin to be renewed.  Their feathers began to grow back and soon they
began to mount up again.  Stronger and more determined now to withstand
all kinds of winds, no matter its source or its destination.  Fly, my
little ones and experience your new freedom and your new height.  Come
sailing into My breath and being.  Come let Me blow you onto the trails
that I have set for you.  You will make a declaration that you will
never allow the old ruins of your life to pull you down again.  You
realize how the enemy used the past to try and prolong you reaching
your destiny with Me.

    Now you are able to swoop down and rescue
the younger eaglets from the clutches of the enemy.  To help them begin
to rise higher and not spend so much time being grounded by the lies of
the wicked one.

    Another realm awaits those who are not
afraid to leave behind the current things of living.  You have dreamed of
going beyond your present situations, so that you may see and testify
of My extreme goodness.  You must have the vision of the eagle and eyes
that see beyond this near-sighted living.  There is so much more, beyond
this moment, a far reaching vision that you can fix your gaze upon the
realms of the glorious miraculous.  I Am much more than what you are
seeing and feeling with the natural limited senses.  I have given you
the Holy Spirit
that you may soar beyond you natural confines. Come, you are made in My
image and likeness, you are spirit!  Look into the realms of glory and
feel the touch of the miraculous.  Then go from that place, exchanging
beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise
for heaviness.  Oh the joys and delights that I have to share with you
now, all that is Me!

    I Am taking you higher so that
your vision can be far-reaching.  You'll be able to see that some of the
things that are being allowed in your life is so that I can remove
those things that are crooked and bent and replace it with My
wholeness.  You'll see and understand that even those times of
affliction will be turned around for your good.  You see I Am making all
things beautiful concerning you.  It is time!  For you have given Me the
right of Lordship, not just Savior.  You have yielded to My word and
have obeyed My Royal command to love.  This love has caused you to be
lifted up above your brethren that are around you.  You will be of great
value to them and to My kingdom.  Do not fear, love will protect you in
the days ahead and cause you to be able to accomplish greater tasks.  Do
not let the oppressive spirit of fear and hatred that hangs in the
atmosphere like fog, sidetrack you.

    I Am truly real to you and not a
surface Savior.  Therefore I will deliver you and cause you to be at
peace, peace within.  There will be no ill winds of change that will
blow you off course.  You have found your steady, stable, resting place
in Me.  Because you have yielded and obeyed My will, you will continue
to mount up with eagle's wings.  I will set you apart and set you on
high.

 Love,

Pastor D.

Good Morning,

I Hear the Spirit saying;
 
    "Because of your faithful love to Me, I will begin to sweep you away.  In quiet moments of our intimate relationship,
as you climb into My arms, I will bring you even closer.  There you will
begin to hear Me as I sing songs of Our victorious love.  You will arise
from that place of rest and become a recognizable force for the enemy,
you will war with My Word, like you have never done before.  A strong
anointing shall rest upon you as you begin to rise to the level of the
anointing that I have placed upon you.  Because you have remained loyal
to Me when it was easier for you to turn your back on Me, because you
did not understand the season that you were in.  You remembered your
first love and kept the flame burning for Me.  I Am enamored by your
good love for Me.  My sweet dove, My little ones who have looked always
on My countenance.  You are about to experience from heaven open doors,
take this season and bring to Me those things that will expand My
kingdom.  I Am now increasing the spirit of boldness, so that you may
accomplish now, what was an impossibility in times past.  Increase
revelation flowing to you in the night season that will shine brighter
than your noonday sun.  Light that clears away all that darkness left
behind, no more not knowing, but seeing
clearly what I Am doing in this season.  You are ones that will begin
now, to display My glory and My righteousness.  There will be no
stopping you now.  You have shaken off the slumber, the weights, the
cares, take flight My mighty eagles.  I will show you the vastness and
the deepness of My heart, for you have been crying out; "more, more, I
know that there is more of You and your awesomeness."  I Am responding
to that deep longing and yearning of your heart, My bride, My fair one. 
I Am arising now to your aide and your rescue.  Your meditation of Me
has brought to you revelation upon revelation.  For those who have not
hearkened to My voice, the Spirit of the Lord says come, draw closer to
Me, I am gathering My loves together.  Pursuing Me has My rewards with
it.  In this place of safe refuge I will begin to shower you with
healing waters, right now feel the soothing rivers flow.  Flowing
through all the broken places, the parched and stilled places of your
heart and mind.  I have never forsaken you, My dear ones.  I was there
when you were being assaulted, it was Me, that kept you alive and kept
your mind sound.  I never abandoned you, you are always Mine as long as
you allow Me and keep your eyes on Me.  I Am now hemming you in for your
own protection and for your own keeping.  Remain in Me, as I will remain
steady and faithful to you."
 
    I just want to say, "thank you Our Lord, Our Father, Our Savior, Precious Holy Spirit,
for loving us and being so faithful and being so full of compassion. 
For your mercies toward us, that are new every morning!  If not for you
where would we be in the land of the living.  Thank you for keeping us
and preserving us and sustaining us.  You have really given to us so
much more than we could ever thank and praise you for!  We love you,
Daddy.  We are desiring to be with you forever.  We kiss you, our beloved
One."
    My family, my sisters and brothers, I pray that you will spend
this day in appreciation of Our loving Father.  All He has done to bring
you to Himself and to bring you home, to be forever with Him.
 
 
Love,

Pastor D.

Ears to Hear

Good Morning,

Here is a Word from the Lord;

    I Am calling to the forefront My true
prophets, those who will speak My heart and My word truly.  They are not
moved by the seasons, whether things are good or bad, whether the
opportunity seems favorable or unfavorable.  They are preachers of My
Word, rebuking, correcting, warning, urging and encouraging the lost. 
They are not moved by whether they are received with joy or cast aside. 
They are on a mission for the Kingdom.  They do not preach a message for
those who have itching ears, they are not trying to gain approval of
man, their desire is to only please Me.  This group of holy prophets
have come from My presence, from being totally immersed in Me and
dedicated to My purpose alone.  They will not say what is popular, but
what is profitable for the Kingdom.  Many voices are saying only what
they hear others saying and have not sought My counsel.  I Am
persistently sending you My prophets, so hear the ones that I Am
placing in your midst.  In order to hear and obey the true prophets with
My Word, you must be able to discern between the true and the false,
between the wheat and the tare.  The only way for you to hear and know
is for you to decide to know Me, in and through My Word.  I have
revealed Myself to you in My Word.  For you to make a proper shift and
change and be in My time, you can not be slothful or ignorant, because
of deception.  Now is the time for you to understand that My purpose and
plans for you are unchangeable, but I need you to line yourself up with
Me.  It is through faith and patience that you inherit the promises.  I
and My Word, We are One.  Listen to the ones that come with My Word.

 
    Read with me the message in Jeremiah
23:9 &11; "Concerning the prophets: My heart is broken within me,
all my bones shaken; I am like a drunken man, a man whom wine has
overcome, because of the Lord and because of His holy Words…..For
both [false] prophets and priest are ungodly and profane; even in My
house have I found their wickedness, says the Lord.  "Verses 16-18;
"Thus says the Lord of Hosts; Do not listen to the words of the [false]
prophets who prophesy to you.  They teach you vanity (emptiness, falsity
and futility) and fill you with vain hopes; they speak a vision of
their own minds and not from the mouth of the Lord.  They are
continually saying to those who despise Me and the Word of the Lord,
the Lord has said: You shall have peace; and they say to everyone who
walks after the stubbornness of his own mind and heart, No evil shall
come upon you.  For who among them has stood in the council of the Lord,
that he should perceive and hear His Word?  Who has marked His Word [noticing and observing and giving attention to it] and has actually
heard it?"  Verses 21-22: "I did not send these [false] prophets , yet
they ran; I did not speak to them, yet they prophesied.  But if they had
stood in My council, then they would have caused My people to hear My
Words, then they would have turned them [My people] from their evil
way and from the evil of their doings."
    God makes a distinction between the true and the false prophets,
and we must discern also.  True prophets are always directing God's
people toward holy character and conduct.  Making 'soul prosperity' the
main goal.
"Beloved, I wish above all things that you may prosper and be in health, even [like unto; to the same degree] as your soul prosper."  (III John verse 2)         
    Read the rest of Jeremiah chapter 23.  "Is not My Word like fire [that consumes all that endure the test]? says
the Lord, and like a hammer that breaks in pieces the rock [of most
stubborn resistance]? Therefore behold, I Am against the [false]
prophets, says the Lord, [I Am even now descending upon them with
punishment, these prophets] who steal My Words from one another [imitating the phrases of the true prophets].  Behold I Am against the
prophets, says the Lord, who use their [own deceitful] tongues and say,
Thus says the Lord."
    All of us are prophets in the small sense of the word and we need to speak the unadulterated Word of God.  We must meditate in the promises and stay true to God's Word.  The Bible says that in the last days that many false prophets shall arise.  We must be wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.  Know the true and living God and develop ears to hear! 
 
Love,

Pastor D.

Good Morning,
 
Hear what the Spirit of the Lord says;

    I Am debriefing My body, My bride in the
chambers of the process of purification.  I will have a bride without
spot, wrinkle or blemish.  This process is now being applied by pressure
to press out of her life those wrinkles in her that is not pleasing for
My bride to be adorned in.  She must willingly submit to the process, I
will not make her, but the process will be a profitable experience for
those who will yield.  I AM debriefing her thought process, so that she
will think like I do.  She has been accommodating herself to the thought
process of where she has been temporarily assigned to.  You, My dear do
not belong to this world, but you are here only to represent Our
Kingdom.  You have allowed yourself to assimilate to the nature of this world
system, which will be destroyed.  I Am bringing My order and My Kingdom
rule to operate here, soon.  I remind you that you are Mine, and I Am
coming to receive you to Myself again, for all eternity.  Do not
entangle yourself with the affairs of this world, everything, except
souls, is temporary.  I have the greatest design and plan for you that
is out of this world.  You cannot afford to act or think like this world
system, for a little leaven will cause the whole lump to be infected
and affected.  Meditate in My Word like never before, find yourself
bathing in the beauty of Me.  There is coming to this world a sudden
calamity that will shake all whose lives are not hidden in me.  I Am
calling My own to draw closer than ever before to Me.  I desire My
fragrance to fill your whole environment, your sphere, the place that I
have strategically placed you in.  That you might be raptured by My
faithful love.  You are My witnesses to this world and I Am in need of
you to help save those who would be saved.  This is Our time to
accomplish the task that I have placed My faithful ambassadors, My
body, my bride to do.  This is the day, the time in which you must be
busy building for Us, not the time for selfish ambitions and selfish
goals.  We are One.  Can what you are preoccupied with stand the test of
fire?  Is it wood, hay or stubble?  Does it have eternal value stamped
upon it?  For a whole year I Am allowing My bride to go through a
cleansing and purification process, to wash away all that has tried to
stick and cause her to smell of this world system.  To purify out of her
the blemishes and the spots from here.  The pressure is applied out of
love, My desire and longing is to see you be all that I have purposed
you to be.  To straighten out the crooked places and to iron out the
wrinkles.  I will have My glorified bride, My church.  She will know and
recognize that she is loved by Me.  All that I Am allowing is to bring
her to perfection.  Do not be afraid, I will carry you on My wings of love and mercy.  All those who call on My name, yield
to My Word and find themselves dwelling in the secret
place will be strong and do exceedingly great things for the Kingdom. 
They will not faint nor grow weary, but will increase in strength.  A
great awakening is on the horizon.  Many will see and know that I am a
great God and loving Father, because My bride will so herald the News. 
She will not be silent, but will increase in the crying for all to come
and appear with them, before Me.  Holy, consecrated, dedicated, loving
and faithful is My bride.  We will ride victoriously in the time we have
and gather many souls for that great Day.  Ride on, My victorious bride!  Keep Me as the apple of your eye and you
will not falter, or fail, but will accomplish all that I have ordained
for you.  I will not fail you, I Am your champion.
 
Love,

Pastor D.

Good Morning,

The Spirit of the Lord says:

    Expect the suddenlies, they come by
waiting. I love to do good, I Am always looking for a way to bring good
into your life.  As the pressure squeezes you, all of those things that
are dead in you will be pushed out.  Just like a wine press
that leaves the waste behind and processes the wine for drinking.  Life,
new wine of life will burst forth from you.  This wine of new life will
anesthetize you to any forms of attack, you will press right through
it.  The enemy does not know the resurrected you, he can not perceive
the power in this new wine.  You are a new wineskin now, full and
overflowing with the best wine.  Yes, I have saved the best for last. 
You are always drinking from the springs of life that provide fresh and
new strength everyday.  In this wine, it gives you wisdom, revelation,
insight, along with being fully inebriated, laughing at the ploys and
strategies of the enemy.  Using every trial, test, tribulations, as a
stepping stool, to lift you up higher into my heavenly realms to hear
and know the great and masterful plans that I have for you.  I have
ordered steps for you.  Though it seems like time has passed you by,
take a look and see, it has brought you to your suddenly.  You have come
through the floods and the fires, and you are still ready to fight.  You
have grown up, through the very things that you thought would destroy
you.  Hold your head up high, you are an ambassador from My kingdom, a
winning warrior.
 
    Suddenly
means to occur with brief notice; not foreseen; characterized by swift
action, fast moving.  Sooner than was expected; not seen in the manner
or time in which it came.
  There is a suddenly in the Word of God, that we will look at: Acts 2:1-2; "And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.  And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind…"  As we examine this scripture we see that this, 'suddenly', came by a season of waiting.  Jesus speaking to His disciples was telling them of the Kingdom of heavenActs 1:4-5: "And being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem,
but
wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith He, you have heard Me speak of.  For John truly baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days from now."   They had no idea how long they would have to wait, but they prepared by
waiting.  We can learn how to wait, by looking at their example. 
Acts 1:13-14; "And when they were come in, they went up into an upper room,
where abode both Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, Philip, and
Thomas, Bartholomew, and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon
Zelotes, and Judas the brother of James.  These all continued with one
accord in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother
of Jesus, and with his brethren."
    Here we see their 'suddenly', came as they waited with anticipation and expectation by being in one accord, prayer and worship.  We must do likewise!  Wait
means to stay in the state of readiness as a watchman who expects to
serve or execute orders.  Hopefully and actively; remaining and
continuing to abide.
    Is. 40:31; "But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength: they shall
mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run and not be weary, and
they shall walk and not faint."
  Here are the benefits of waiting for your 'suddenly'.  Renewed strength– to spring up with change; to grow up in vigor, force, capacity, means ability, might, power, wealth, substance, fruit and produce.  Mount up with wings as eagles
to ascend, to arise, bring up, carry up, climb up, stir up, to set up:
to soar with long wing span; gliding easier; not as tedious.  Run and not be weary
hit the runner's high; to stretch, to rush speedily and hastily like a
footman; never tire or become exhausted, or gasping for breath. Walk and not faint– to carry away; to depart, to march, prosper and pursue; not be
fatigued; not weakened.
    Our suddenlies are based upon our promise from God's WordPromise is a divine assurance of good; self committed by God.  God keeps His promises to us so wait your suddenly is on it's way. 
"The Lord does not delay and is not tardy or slow about what He
promises, according to some people's conception of slowness, but He is
long-suffering (extraordinarily patient) toward you…"
 
Love,

Pastor D.

Good Morning,

The Spirit of the Lord says:

    In this season of change, I am releasing
the anointings that have rested upon My servants in times past, yet
double.  The anointings that now come upon My servants today as the
gifts of the Spirit, that sometimes drip as a steady rain, shall
seem as powerful as the Niagara or the Victoria falls that no man can
quench it or still it.  The anointing of wisdom, revelation, miracles, healings, prophetic utterances, knowledge and insight, supernatural faith, discerning of spirits
and diverse kinds of tongues shall be like living-fire in My house.  All
of the living temples that abide in Me and allow Me to truly abide in
them will walk this out in every sphere and avenues of life.  This
strong release shall be upon the housewife, the market place, the
poor and the rich, the young and the old, female and male, every race
and nation of people that belong to Me.  Living examples of My living
power.  The diversities of My gifts and their use is as diverse as My
people are.  This end time army shall be a devastation and a violent
assault against the kingdom of darkness.  Powerful force for the enemy
to reckon with, for My people have arisen.  Alive in their true identity!!  Sons and daughters
of the Most High God, imitating and demonstrating the love and
character of their Father.  Bringing the greatest treasures of this
world into My Kingdom, and that treasure is souls.  Fill My treasury
with those gems that bring Me delight!  My people have become
home-sick, so now their focus has shifted, now they long to be with Me
forever.  Busy, busy, but not about many things as in days gone by,
now they are busy for the Kingdom.
  Now a
single-vision has taken hold of them and I Am now the apple of their
eye.  Their will has now turned into Mine.  So look and see, those who
are yearning for Me, will let Me flow the anointings through them to
bring many souls home to Me.  They have set their faces like a flint. 
Their concern is not about building their own microscopic kingdoms.
They are about their Father's business.  I Am about seeing that they
have everything necessary to fulfill Our destiny.
 
    We, the children of God are waking up and walking in our inherited rights.  Romans
8:19-23; "For even the whole creation (all nature) waits expectantly
and longs earnestly for God's sons to be made known [waits for the
revealing, the disclosing of their sonship].
We have God's DNA, His greatness is in us.  The power is waiting for us to stir it up within us.  Open our eyes to see clearly who we really are. "That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him. the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you know what is the hope of His calling, and what the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the exceeding greatness of His power to us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power, which He
wrought in Christ, when He raised Him from the dead, and set Him at His
own right hand in the heavenly places, far above principality, and
power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only
in this world, but also in that which is to come; and has put all
things under His feet, and gave Him to be the head over all things to
the church, which is His body, the fullness of Him that fills all in all."  (Ephesians 1:17-23)
  Everything underlined refers to us and our place, part, and position in Christ.  That last part of the verse in the Amplified Bible says it like
this;
"He has put all things under His feet ….and made Him supreme Head
of the church [a headship exercised throughout the church].  Which is
His body, the fullness of Him, Who fills all in all [for in that body
lives the full measure of Him Who makes everything complete, and Who
fills everything everywhere with Himself]."
  Did you get it?  In that body, [that is you and I], lives the full
measure of God and Christ.  Wow, what God has placed in a brick house! 
We are more than dirt, with eyes and a mouth.  We are an expression of
the image of our God.  Pause and calmly think on that today.  Rise up,
for we have a firm foundation.  He will keep you stable as you take
steps to do your part of filling the measure of Him.

Good Morning,

    Do you remember when you first got your new car, new house, new
toys, new outfit, new pair of shoes?  Do you remember the first time you
met your mate for life?  How about the first time you met the Lover of
your soul?  Oh, the excitement, the care and attention that you gave to
those first new loves!  Now can I ask you, do you even know where those
shoes are that you couldn't do without?  Do you wash and shine that car
like you did the first few weeks?  How about the upkeep, how old is the
oil, or is it empty?  How about your house, is there things that are broken
and in need of repair that you keep promising to get to?  Does your
front yard look like no one lives there?  That outfit,is it balled up
in the corner of your closet?  How much dust is on that 60 inch flat
screen T.V.?  That mate that you thought was the only one for you, when
was the last time you had a romantic evening of gazing into each others eyes? When was the last time
you did something to let them know that they are still the most important person in your life?
    I said all that to bring us to the number one, most important One in our lives.  Do you still give God the undivided attention
that you once gave Him?  Do you wake up in the morning and run to be in
His arms as you did in the beginning?  Do you wait with anticipation,
for those sweet Words of love
that He whispers to your heart alone?  Do you still look into His eyes
while everything else fades into the shadows?  Is He the only One who
can make you truly happy?  Are you longing to be with Him always
and forever?  There are so many distractions of life that cries out for
our attention.  Many of them are viable, like our family, our loved
ones, our jobs, our ministries, etc.  None of this should occupy the
first place in our lives, even though for most of us these very viable
things take precedent.  While our relationship with the Father gets
pushed back into our 'spare time slot'.  Our hearts and our minds will
make place for that which we long for and desire.  We can make our flesh
get in line for anything that we really want.  If you need to get up and
catch a flight to go on your vacation you can program your mind and
flesh to line up with your heart.  You will not miss that flight, even
if it is 2:30 in the morning, right?  You will get to that gate in time! 
Yet we should be waiting at the gates of our God, first place.  "Joyful are those who listen to Me, watching for Me daily at My gates, waiting for Me outside My home" (Proverbs 8:35)
    Longing means to seek greedily; to run to
and fro to have; have appetite for; to pine for or to languish with
desire; yearn intensely for; to be desperate for; have a strong craving
for; to give diligent search for; to hunger and thirst for with ones whole heart.
  Does this define your relationship with God right now?  Listen to these verses and see if you identify wholeheartedly with them.  Psalms 63:1; "O God, You are my God; At dawn, I earnestly search for You.  My soul [mind, will and emotions] thirsts for You; my whole body longs for You…"  "My soul yearns, yes, even pines and is homesick for the courts of the Lord; my heart and my flesh cry out for the living God." (Psalms 84:2)  God is waiting to have a bride who can no longer stand to be separated
from Him.  A bride who desires Him more than silver or gold.  One who is
languishing within, to behold Him.  Father is saying to let our dream
become reality! 
"In the night I dreamed that I sought the One whom I love. I sought Him, but I found Him not."(Song Of Solomon)
    Are you keeping your love red hot and on
fire for Him?  Are you longing, greedily seeking, running to and
fro, pining and yearning with desire, desperately craving and yearning,
hungry and thirsty for Him now?  Can you sense Him deep inside causing
your bowels to turn with such longing to go to Him?  Where nothing else
can quite satisfy you. I hear His voice saying,

    "Rise
up, my love, my fair one and come away.  I desire you, and only you.  Come and linger in the sheltered secret place and be enamored always
with My love for you.  I will lavish you with all that I have kept for
you, overflowing goodness, My heart's treasure is to fill you with
wholeness and soundness.  Stay in the place of readiness and
preparation.  I am coming soon to take you away.  Be ready against that
day.  We are yearning for you to behold all that we have prepared for
you.  To take delight in your delight.  Do not let or allow the
activities of life to side track from your journey back home.  Home with
me is where you belong.  Your assignments on earth are almost completed
and over.  I need your affection and attention to be single-minded.  I
sense your desire is towards Me.  You are coming into your place of
being a mature bride.  Ready to do the greater works that will give Me
all glory.  The finishing touches are being applied.  This will be our
grandest hour.  The light will shine brighter in the darkest days
ahead.  What was once a small light shall now outshine all eras.  We are
taking in the greatest haul, my love.  Together in My name it will be
accomplished.  The greatest power is released from love.  Our love for
one another will accomplish these great works in the days ahead.  While
the world quakes in fear and in darkness, you will arise in love and light.  Go forth my love and let us finish what I started.  Stay sensitive to My voice,
for I am giving you instructions that will put you over the top, both spiritually and naturally.  So follow Me and stay true to My Word.  Forever, we will be together loving and enjoying each other!"

 
Love,

Pastor D.

Ears to Hear

Good Morning,
   
    The Spirit of the Lord says;

    "One sustained
sound, the sound that Israel maintained, at the blowing of the trumpets
and the shouts of My people that brought the walls of Jericho down.  It
is this same sound that I am requiring all that call on My name to do
even today.  That one sustained sound can bring you victory and cause
the walls of defeat to come crashing down in your life.  The shout of
victory that is filled with My Word will break down walls and cause
mountains to crumble and valleys to break open with the hidden springs
of life.  Oh, My children, the hidden mines of victories that lies
within your mouth and your spirit waiting to open floods of living waters
over you.  Deep treasures are about to be explored and brought to the
surface for those who trust in My Word and depend upon My promises for
them.  As you spend time in worship and in My Word, learning how to wait
with expectation, slowly, the treasure that I've already given you, will
come bubble up.  The waves of the Spirit will wash against the rocky
places the hard and difficult ones and reveal what you have in your
hands.  Every time that you soak in my presence, the Spirit will
consistently remove little by little, the hindrances that have tried to
prevent the discoveries that show who you really are.  You are changed
by the waiting.  As you beh
old me, these face to face encounters reflect Me, more and more.  Until you awake in My likeness.  There are hidden treasures in secret places that have been reserved just for you.

    Isaiah 59:21;
"As for Me, this is My covenant or league with them, says the Lord: My
Spirit, Who is upon you [and Who writes the law of God inwardly on the
heart], and My Words which I have put in your mouth shall not depart
out of your mouth, or out of the mouths of your [true spiritual]
children, or out of the mouths of your children's children, says the Lord, from henceforth and
forever."  Isaiah 45:3; "And I will give you the treasures of darkness
and hidden riches in secret places."  The Lord is exalted, for He dwells on high;
He will fill Zion with justice and righteousness.  And there shall be
stability in your times, an abundance of salvation, wisdom, and
knowledge; the reverent fear and worship of the Lord is your treasure
and His." (Is. 33:5-6)
    Our Father
delights to do us good.  As we stay consistent with Him, as our covenant
requires, He will do what He has promised.  All of us may be going
through rough times where the promises are being tested in our
lives.  Be assured the Word of God
can handle us applying pressure to it.  I have experienced difficult
testing that I thought I would not be able to smile and be truly happy
again.  Yet, God has remained faithful to His Word.  He can be depended
upon to use the worst situations to bring the deepest, most valuable
treasures from within each of us.  You are God's most
desirable treasure and yet within you He has placed treasure.  So, let's
do justice to our Father's Word and say what He says about us.  There is
untapped treasure in you waiting to be discovered.
 
Love,

Pastor D.
