Good morning,
This enemy of Ours is attempting to lull a great body of My people to sleep. “Sleep”, he says, “through the crisis in your life”. “Sleep”, he says, “to the cries of the lost world”. “Sleep, you don’t need to be aware of the times or season that you are in”, says the liar. Sleep so that your spiritual senses become dull. Sleep in order that you might receive more of his lies. Sleep so that you are deaf to My voice. He is using the cares of this world, the lust and longings for other things, (wants, entertainment, business) and the deceitfulness of riches, those cravings and desires for more and more, all those things that beckon for your attention. He is applying a smoke screen. Awake from your spiritual slumber, for it is the sleep of death sent to kill your real life in Me. Where are the watchmen on the walls? Those who are seers, that I have anointed to see ahead, to the times and the season. Listen as they cry out to you. For the spirit of deceitfulness has caused your walk to become lethargic, as one who feels in the darkness. Your great light that once burned brightly has become small. Wake up to righteousness! You don’t even know how far you have fallen. You have judged yourself by others that have been dulled by this life. Those who have become lovers of this world. Those who are taking pleasure in the wickedness around them. Turn your gaze back on Me, your Bright and MorningStar. You once ran with the messengers that carried My Word. Now you have put down your torch and run with the jackals of this temporary world. Return to Me!
You must stay planted by the river of My Word in order to have a ceaseless supply of fresh water. So that no matter what the outer conditions, you will continue to produce. Each time you dwell in darkness and with sin, you are weakened to your defense against it. Your delight and desires for Me will shift. You cannot love two lovers. You will either hate the one and love the other. Remember how you loved Me, I was your delight and your desire. Come back to Me with your whole heart and I will heal you of your backsliding heart. I have been speaking gently, while the world screams at you for your attention and affection. Now I will shout as one who is in travail. Awake, arise and stir yourself up to Me!! Do not grow weary in your waiting. Do not grow weary in your well doing. I will come for you. I Am coming for My Bride, so wake up to My Word. Stay alert to My Presence and know the times that we are in.
“Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you—unless, of course, you fail the test?” (2 Corinthians 13:5)
“But thanks be to God, who always leads us in victory through Christ. God uses us to spread his knowledge everywhere like a sweet-smelling perfume. Our offering to God is to be the perfume of Christ that goes out to those who are being saved and to those who are being lost. To those who are being lost, this perfume smells like death, and it brings them death. But to those who are being saved, it has the sweet smell of life, and it brings them life. So who is good enough to do this work?” (2 Corinthians 2:14-16)
“Do not be so deceived and misled! Evil companionships (communion, associations) corrupt and deprave good manners and morals and character. Awake from your drunken stupor and return] to sober sense and your right minds, and sin no more. For some of you have not the knowledge of God [you are utterly and willfully and disgracefully ignorant, and continue to be so, lacking the sense of God’s presence and all true knowledge of Him]. I say this to your shame.” (1 Corinthians 15:33-34)
Love,
