January 19, 2024 – Ears to Hear/Hearts to Obey

Good morning,

     Do not stand aloof from Me in this season of your life.  It is the time of drawing very close to Me in order to hear My instructions and directions for your life. It is not time for choosing your own plans and ways.  Now more than ever it is My plans for you that must prevail in your life.  All this time I have been bringing you to the place of surrender.  Surrendering your plans for Mine.  Sometimes when you thought you were surrendered, you were still holding on to your plans.

     The system of this world is rapidly decaying, it is drawing itself up like an old ancient scroll.  The lease is almost up and now the whole world awaits the rising of the sons of God to take their place.  All creation is waiting on you.  Rise to righteousness, My way of doing right. You have gone down a winding road and have almost forgotten to be driven by your eternal purpose.  I Am soon to come for a spotless church.  So, wash yourselves through and by My Word.  It is not grievous or hard to do.  I can no longer tolerate your indecisive ways or your desire to keep wandering around in immaturity.  This is a season of purging and pruning.  Cutting and severing yourselves from the love of this world system.  It is time to grow up.  I have narrowed your way with constrictions and I have hedged you round about.  Look to Me, your Redeemer and your Deliverer.  The affair with this world system will be severed.  Your dependency on My Word and obeying My voice must be your necessary food.  You can not have two lovers, one will become less loved.  I Am a jealous God, I alone must be your God. 

     I Am now taking the position as the Lord of your life, which means obedience to My ways.  I know the way through the valleys as well as through the mountains, so stay near.  I discipline and teach My people from My Word.  I give you peace and in the midst of troubles.  I also judge and discipline nations at the same time.  That time has come upon the earth.  The cries of My people have come up to Me.  My judgment is pure and right.  Blessed are the ones that I discipline and those who yield and learn from My discipline.  I discipline those I love.  I stand against those who stand against My Word.  For those who have made Me their trust, I will never abandon.  After the divine time set aside for refining and purging you will come forth as pure gold.  Rare and unique.

Love,

Pastor D.
