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 heaven.  Acts 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 Word.  Promise 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.

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 behold 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.

Ears to Hear (Part 44)

Good Morning,

    The Hebrew month of Adar is here, also known to us as March.  Both are significant for us to pay attention to.  The Hebrews associate this month in the sense of the 'power to walk', meaning to move and accelerate in our service of God.  They also receive the Jewish Law, whose name is derived from the word which means walking, 'halicha'.  It also denotes the month of vision.  In Adar everybody saw the revelation on Mount Sinai, the giving of the Torah to Moses.  Vision is something seen otherwise than by the ordinary sight; an imagery supernatural or prophetic sight; something beheld in revelatory dream, trance.  The act or power of seeing and or perceiving.  This season overlaps with the times of the month of February which denotes healing, purging and refining.  The Spirit of God is still doing the work of refining, purging and healing, while causing our vision to be purged and refined.  At the same time healing the steps (those that have been crooked or perverted) that we are taking towards the vision in the service of God.  The month of March, for the English calendar represents the times of winds, also on the Hebrew calendar it is when they celebrate the Feast of Weeks (Pentecost).  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, and it filled all the house where they were sitting….verse 4 says, "and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost.."  The winds represent the breath of God.  Winds here mean breath, or a sensible or even violent exhalation of life.  It can be seen clearly by the demonstration in Ezekiel, where wind and breath are synonyms.  Ezekiel 37:4-10; Again He said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the Lord.  Thus says the Lord God to these bones; Behold I will cause breath to enter into you, and you shall live.  Verse 7; So I prophesied as I was commanded; and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones came together, bone to his bone….Verse 9; Then said he to me, Prophesy to the wind (breath), prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind (breath), Thus says the Lord God; Come from the four winds, O breath and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.  So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them and they lived…

    This month ahead, the breath or wind of God is breathing in and upon us as in days gone by to refresh us for the journey of walking out the vision of God.  He will enable us for the journey, to take the steps necessary to fulfill His purpose.  Whatever God has been speaking consistently to you over and over again, now is the time to allow the winds to take you there.  Those dreams, visions, plans and goals that have been birthed through prayer, the wind or breath of God will push you along to the end of this course.  
    The Spirit says: "Do not be afraid to take the steps.  Walking means to have the ability to move to the directed course.  Move now, towards the vision.  Do not halt between two opinions.  I will accelerate, I will breathe a fresh breath of life into the plans that I have made for you.  Everything that establishes the Kingdom, will take priority.  As you are busy doing Kingdom business I will in turn take care of all of your affairs, everything that concerns you.  We will affect every area and walk of living, so that no one is missed or untouched by those who are walking in the vision that I have planned for them.  All of Me will blow through this world, for I Am in all of you.  For wherever I send you, there I Am also.  More of Me will be seen, for My people are dying to themselves, so that I may live through them.  My life being expressed through My people, My plans, My dreams, My vision being fulfilled through My people.  Take those steps towards the destiny that I breathed into you.  Don't be afraid, for it is My breath, the wind of the Spirit that you will feel blowing you onto course.  Simultaneously the same wind will be blowing the refuse off of the course, so that you will not stumble over it anymore.  Listen to Me, for the Spirit and the Word gives light.  Light brings understanding.  Yield to My Spirit and My Word.  Both, together are life-giving.  When you sense the push along the course that I have chosen, it will be by My breathe and My wind.  Together we will bring a new day."
    This month, you must remember to prophesy-to speak by inspiration.  Inspire yourself to speak that you will walk out the God given vision, blown by the wind of the Spirit. "He who walks uprightly, walks securely..Whoever walks uprightly shall be saved…whoever walks wisely shall be delivered. (Proverbs 10:9;28:18 & 26) "So we walk on, securely, saved and delivered!

Good Morning,

The Spirit says:

    This is the season where my warriors
will be able to do more harm to the kingdom of darkness, than ever
before.  As they have gone through the valleys, they have come out
trusting Me, their great Warrior.  Many for the first time in their walk
with Me, have experienced Me as their personal bravery.  They have awaken
from the slumber that this world system lulled them into.  Now they
truly begin to see My Word work in their affairs.  I have been a Father,
a Provider, a Counselor, a Healer, a Friend and a Lover to them. 
They have stretched themselves during the difficulties that they were
challenged by, and found out that the Greater One keeps every promise. 
I have overshadowed them, so that the darts of the wicked one did not
destroy them.  They arose and soared higher than they thought was
possible, acquiring new levels of faith and more sensitivity to My
presence.  They chose to stay disciplined as they went through the fire
and the flood.  My warriors have come out, delivered, set free, loosed
and changed.  Stronger and braver still, against all of the forces of
the enemy.  They do not fear, or run from adversities, but uses the
storms of life to cause them to mount up higher.  For I, the Lord have
strengthen them and hardened them to difficulties, and with each one,
it has become easier for my warriors to face the next battles.  This
bravery and strength was born out of those hard places as they trusted
in El-Gibbor.  Oh, I have taken such delight in these warriors!  They
have learned to do My Word at all times, yes, even when it isn't easy. 
Joy, is found in My house at all times, and my warriors have found
deeper joy in Me.  Trusting Me have brought a calm assurance and great
joy.  Now they know Me, truly know Me as the Faithful One.  The enemy is
shaken by this revelation.  My people humbled themselves and depended on
Me, not in their own ability or in their strength.  This season is a
great spiritual battle and they are not neglecting their full armor. 
They have stood face to face against the forces of darkness and
withstood them by My grace.  They must not turn in retreat, for cowards
will perish.

    Every warrior that is truly Mine, can not
love this world, nor his own personal comforts more than their
obligations to this great armed forces that they have enlisted in. 
Truly, the arm of flesh will disappoint and let down every time.  This
is a serious season for serious warriors.  I have given them a brave
and courageous spirit and a persistent heart.  They are determined to
keep faithful to the end.  With this kind of heart, an increase of
revelations will flow into their lives.  For this committed remnant of
believers shall come forth, a greater degree of the miraculous in their
personal lives.  The enemy thought he would have you on the run, yet, after all of the smoke clears, there you stand.  Standing in the power
of your God and His personal bravery.  My brave courageous warriors who
walk in the fear of their God and in the revelation that there is no
weapon formed against them that will prosper.  They boldly declare and
decree it and the wicked one flees, yes, he runs from them.  For great is the army that carries out My Word.

    Through God we shall do valiantly [a force; an army; wealth, virtue, valor, strength; a great host, might, power, strong war]; for it is He that shall tread down our enemies. (Psalms 60:12)  Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of His might.  (Ephesians 6:10)  Saints, we win!!  Shout about it!!
 
Love,

Good Morning,
 
The Spirit of the Lord says;

    Let the winds of adversity blow and the
storms of change rage against My trees that I have planted.  They may
bow at the fierce gust of the winds, but they will not break.  They, who
are Mine have allowed Me to plant them near the river.  Their roots go
down deep, so deep that nothing can penetrate to their depth.  They sway
with the force of the storm, but they are easily up-righted.  For they
are rooted in My Word and they have stood the test of time.  They are
the great oaks and evergreens in My garden.  When the heat of trials,
tests and adversities come, they have found their shade of protection
in My Word.  These oaks and evergreens have been fruitful to all in My
garden.  Others take delight in their shade and in the sweet smell that
comes from their leaves of life.  The foxes and all the enemies of My
garden are shocked by the incredible stamina of these great and
powerful trees.  They have learned how to use all the difficulties and
adversities as fodder for their continued growth.  My trees remain
connected to Me, their source, I have received much glory from their
obedient and yielded life. 
In the days that are coming upon the face of this earth, it will be My
trees that will stand for Me and for righteousness and not be moved by
what moves the world.  Their trust is in Me and My faithfulness to them
and in keeping My promises.  Because they are deeply rooted in Me, they
will rise with wisdom and insight for the days ahead, many of them will
be like Joseph and Daniel. 
In times of difficulties, times of oppression, times of uncertainty and
in challenging times, Joseph and Daniel received heavenly wisdom,
knowledge, insight and revelation for their families as well as for
their nations.  I am giving to My trees of righteousness that same
ability.  One will receive a piece of the puzzle, another will receive
their piece and still another their piece.  My true people will come
together and they will excel at this time as they learn how to be One,
as I Am One with the Son and Precious Spirit.  We are whole together.  So
shall My people come, each with his piece to make a whole.  Stamping out
their childish ways, envy, jealousy, selfishness, and a list of fleshly
devices of separation.  One as I long for you to be.
    Listen My trees for I Am revealing to you
the way to go through the midst of these times of tribulation and
testing without anything hurting or harming you.  If you want in, come
and let Me plant you and prune you by My river that you too may be an
oak or an evergreen in My eternal garden.
   
    Jeremiah
17:5-8; "This is what the Lord says; Cursed are those who put their
trust in mere humans, who rely on human strength and turn their hearts
away from the Lord.  They are like stunted shrubs in the desert, with no
hope for the future.  They will live in the barren wilderness, in an uninhabited salted land.  But blessed are those who trust in the Lord and have made the lord their hope and confidence.  They are like trees planted along a riverbank, with roots that reach deep into the water.  Such trees are not bothered by heat or worried by long months of drought.  Their leaves stay green, and they never stop producing fruit."  John 15:1-4; "I am the true vine and my Father is the gardener.  He cuts off every branch of mines that doesn't produce fruit, and He prunes the branches that do bear
fruit so they will produce even more….remain in Me and I will remain in you.  For a branch cannot produce fruit if it is severed from the vine, and you cannot be fruitful unless you remain in Me.

Good Morning,
 The Word Of The Lord Came To Me Saying;
There is a river that is ever increasing in its intensity and its consistency.  It has been flowing into the open sanctuaries of the hearts of My people.  To those who will let, by yielding, this mighty river will root out, pull down, throw down and destroy all hard and stubborn places.  The river will cause heavy burdens to become dislodged as easily as a feather blowing in the wind.  In order for this to happen, I must have access into every area of your heart.  If you would learn to flow with the rhythms of  My river, you would see all that is washed away by its force.  You cannot go on your own power.  The river will push you from familiar places, out of the ruts that you have become stuck in.My river is a cleansing one that removes deep set in dirt, from the mind and heart.  Refreshing comes as it washes all weakening agents from your life.  As it increases with intensity it sanctifies, purges, heals and builds and plants.  Making you whole, healthy and sound in your mind and your heart.  Growth will be seen by all who have known you before the flowing river began this restoration in you.  You, that was barren, unhappy, unloving, unforgiving and unfruitful shall blossom and bring amazement and wonder.  Come, yield and flow with Me to your fulfillment.
 
Ezekiel 47:6-11; He asked me, "Have you been watching, son of man?"  Then he led me back along the riverbank.  When I returned, I was surprised by the sight of many trees growing on both sides of the river.  Then he said to me, "This river flows east through the desert [dry, hard places], into the valley of the Dead Sea."  The waters of this river will make the salty waters of the Dead Sea fresh and pure.  There will be swarms of living things wherever the waters of this river flows.   Fish will abound in the Dead Sea, for its waters will become fresh.  Life will flourish wherever this water flows.  Fishermen will stand along the shores of the Dead Sea…….  Verse 11 says, "But the miry places and the marshes will not be purified; they will still be salty."
Marshes—-meadow lands near water; swamps; bogs; morass [a trap; it snares, confuses or impedes and entangles] 
Miry land—boggy ground or matted; deep mud or slush; [something that causes one to wallow and sink deeper; to plunge into a deep pit]; to cause to stick
So there are places and people who will not yield to God's river or His power.  What, not yield to God's power?  Do you remember Pharaoh?  He saw God's signs and power, yet he hardened his heart against God.  Sounds like a miry land or a marsh place, because where there is no yielding, there will be no change.  We must make sure that our hearts stay pure, by not getting entangled or confused by all that is going on in your life as well as what is going on in the world.  Everything that is twisted, wicked, evil or even some things that look right may be designed to try to take your mind off of God's river, to bring entanglement and confusion.  That you end up stuck or wallowing in the muck and mire, sinking deeper.  Stay in the Word of God and hunger for His Presence daily.  Love is the foundation to keep the river on the increase.  No one and nothing is worth losing your soul-salvation.  Love, like your life depends on it, for it really does.  Let's ride the river with Abba!!

Love,

Good Morning,
 
    This Sunday at our church, there was a Word spoken from the Lord. 
   
    He
said, "From chaos, void and darkness, I brought forth light and life.  So
I Am still bringing forth in your lives today light and life from the
chaos and darkness that has tried to form in your lives.  I speak and
then I watch over My Word to see to it that it comes to pass.  Everyday
I created something marvelous and magnificent, that still exist from
the power of that Word.  On the sixth day I created the most awesome
marvel, the crowning of My creation.  Male and female in My very own
image.  Everyday, I will call for you, greater and magnificent things. 
More awesome than the day before.  On the sixth day you will see in your
life, My crowning glory.  You will delight in it, and shout and sing My
glory.  You will say, it is good,good,good!
   
    Light means illumination, luminary in every sense, happiness, bright, clear day, morning, sun.  Now,
just began to see in every area of your life, light.  God is going to
remove obscurity, brighten and clear up your mind, your family matters,
your finances, all your affairs of life.  Light filling up all the empty
and void places.  Light clearing away the confusion
and the unorganized state.  Just think, everyday getting brighter, less
confused and better organized.  Touching every part of living.  Psalm 112:4 says, "Unto the upright there arises light in the darkness…"  Psalm 36:9; "For with You is the fountain of life; in Your light do we see light."
    On the sixth day, life comes
forth in your image.  Something that God impregnated you with in the
"spirit'.  What great idea, creation, dream, longing of the heart has God placed in you?  Life means fresh and alive; vital and living with force.  Isaiah
66:9 says, "Shall I bring to the moment of birth and not cause to bring
forth? says the Lord.  Shall I Who causes to bring forth shut the womb?
says your God."   There you have it, it's your time to bring forth in the light.  It is time to replenish the earth with the 'living thing'
inside you.  Now just as with labor, you have your part to do in this
great illumination and birthing process.  You have to push!  Even when
you are tired, you still have to press and push.  You must believe you
receive and you must say so.  You must speak and declare the great days
of illumination that lie ahead for you!  We are expecting the Word of God to bring forth, life and light!
 
Love,

Pastor D.

This is a prophetic word brought  forth in our church:

    I am waking up my lovely bride, says the Spirit of Grace and Mercy.  Every fairytale you have ever heard before has an inkling of truth in
it, they have taken parts of my character and traits.  I am the Prince
that awakens his bride with the kiss of love, that
has been cast into a deep sleep.  I will come to rescue her riding on a
white horse.  I have prepared for her mansions and we will live happily
ever after.  Yes, my bride, my beauty shall awaken from her sleep and
when she arises says the Spirit of grace and mercy great and wonderful
things shall she do.  She is up to something, says the Spirit of mercy
and grace, she's up to me.  As she comes closer and closer to me she
will begin to act like I act, do what I do, say what I say.  My
bride will spontaneously erupt into a great anointing and the eyes of
her understanding shall be enlightened, she will know things that she
did not know before.  The revelations, the spirit of revelation has come upon my sleeping beauty. 
She shall arise and do great and mighty things and together we shall
arise to new heights of victory and glory.  And I say that the spirit of
increase is upon her she shall increase in whatever she put her hands
to.  It is a new beginning for her and she shall shake off the grave
clothes of the past experiences of discouragement and
disappointment.  She shall arise and dance over the graves of her life
and she shall strengthen herself by celebrating the one she will see
reflected in the mirror.  As she looks deeply she will see Me in her, My
beauty reflecting through her.  Everything that I have brought her
through is to bring her to this great awakening says the spirit of
mercy and she shall arise as one that has been in slumber as one that
has been asleep for a long season.  She shall brush away the sleep of
dreams and she shall realize that this is living, truly living.  She
shall begin to do great and awesome deeds and the nations shall tremble
under the force of my bride.  The nations shall quake under the force
and authority that she shall arise in.  Men and women shall stand and
shutter and the desires of their hearts shall turn towards Me, for they
shall see in this last day that My army is also My bride.  She is a
beauty that is no longer asleep, she has risen with My purpose in her
heart.  As she tramps throughout the land she shall take back those
things that the enemy has stolen from Me and the enemy has stolen
from her and together we shall arise as we conquer the land that
belongs to Me.  Then says the Lord, I shall rise up as a man of war and I
shall do violently against the enemy of her soul and she will stand
still and see the salvation of her God.  When she gets tired I shall
arise upon her with fresh new strength to carry the race forward, says
the Lord.  I will not quit and she will not quit.  We will not give up
until that day begins to dawn brighter and clearer.  My bride will know
who she is in that day says the Lord.  In the reflection you will see Me
greater and stronger and mightier then ever before.  I shall arise as a
mighty Lion of Judah,
I shall arise with a great roar shaking the land and cause men and
women to tremble at my voice.  I will come with justice and
righteousness, I will deliver My own.  I am coming for My glorious
bride!  Hallelujah!
