Good morning,

A generation that believes, a generation that believes My Word. I have waited, looked, and longed for people who would believe what I speak and walk with Me. In each generation, I have had a few who took Me at My Word but waited for a whole generation to believe that everything I said is a yes and amen. I have longed for those people to come forth. You have been birthed for this generation and now you stand ready to walk and do exploits in My name. The fullness of the matter has not yet been seen for I have anointed you with a fresh anointing for the time that you are living in. It will go beyond your understanding and comprehension if you just step over into the unknown with Me. If you would release those things of the past and press forward so that you are not encumbered. The weight of this world, the weight of sin, the weight of everything around about you that tries to hinder you from being exactly who I have called you to be will not hold any power. To open up and let the world see that I have created great men and women in their midst who shall go and do the work of their calling. I have called you to boldness and not be afraid of the enemy. Yes, his voice is loud, but Mine is greater says the Spirit of grace and mercy. You will do mighty works unashamedly, unafraid, and boldly declaring who I Am. I know that you think that you do not have the mouth to speak, but I have anointed you and I will rest upon your lungs and your voice and I will rest upon you and know that you are never too old to carry the charge. I will anoint you from on high to do exactly what I appointed you to do. Before you were in your mother’s womb I knew you and I appointed you for this day, this moment. Great shall be your peace, great shall be everything that I have anointed you to do. You shall walk and men shall say, “Where has she been? Where has he been?” He has been in the wilderness with his great and mighty God forming and making him able to stand through difficult times. Yes, that is you I say. Yes, that is you.

“Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them.” (Psalms 119:165)

“And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.”(Daniel 11:32)

“The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous are bold as a lion.” (Proverbs 28:1)

Good morning,

Yes, you have braved many battles, fought many wars, and come forth victorious by My mercy and grace. For I have given you beauty for ashes and the oil of joy for mourning and the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness. Why, so that you might be called trees of righteousness planted deep in My word, fully rooted, immovable by the circumstances and the sway of the world, and the winds of change and the slight cunningness of the enemy that comes to try to dislodge you to cause you to be removed from the place that I planted you in. But you have remained faithful to My Word, always going back to My promises. This is what I have for you, the Few, the Proud, the ones that stay steady on the course, the ones that remain faithful, the ones that keep My Word uppermost in their hearts, and minds. Every time that the enemy tries to come and steal a promise or steal My Word from you, you go back to My Word, and renew again, the hope and promises that I have given you so that you might remain faithful and steady, regardless of the things that are going on around about you. For this is My people, a people that have been purged through the fires of life that comes forth as pure gold. They will go through but they come out victorious every time. This is My people, says the Spirit.  They are not afraid of the challenges that the enemy will try to bring against them. They stay faithful and steady in My Word. This is My people, a faithful people that will not be altered by circumstances or situations. Instead, they face them right on knowing that I, their Father will see to it that in everything that they do, they will remain and be victorious in every circumstance and every situation. This is My people, a people that have become hard to the ways of the world but pliable in My hand. This is My people, says the Lord, the ones that will not be removed and will remain when I come I will find faith in this world and it will be these people who have remained steady, faithful, and trustworthy. Always looking to My word as their final answer. This is My people.

“Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me.” (Psalm 101:6) 

“The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance [to the full, till it overflows].” (John 10:10)

  “For our momentary, light distress [this passing trouble] is producing for us an eternal weight of glory [a fullness] beyond all measure [surpassing all comparisons, a transcendent splendor and an endless blessedness]!  So we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are unseen; for the things which are visible are temporal [just brief and fleeting], but the things which are invisible are everlasting and imperishable.” (2 Corinthians 4:17-18)

Good morning,

I have spoken once, yet twice have I said this to you; “Stand still and see the salvation of your Lord!”  Somehow you think that I am not working because you don’t see in the now the activity that is going on to bring My word to pass for you.  Your angels are constantly at work, to bring to pass My promises on the behalf of the one who believes and stands. Do not be deceived by the scurrying around of the little foxes of our enemy.  He uses the natural forces to get your attention on him.  He does that to try and get your eyes to roam to the left and right, keeping you trapped by the present activities.  All of the chaos of transition can leave you feeling unsettled if you are not keeping your gaze upon Me and My promises. I have not changed My mind concerning the prophetic Words that I have spoken over you.  They are settled with Me.  Are they settled with you? They must be, in order for you to receive them.  They must always be in your heart.  I long to do those good things that I have said to you. Yet, it is with eyes of faith that you will see the promises fulfilled. The winds of trials and tribulations have blown you off course.  They have arisen because of the promises, their purpose was to get you to shift your sail.  You have allowed yourself to be pushed around by these lying winds.  They blow in your ears, your eyes, and through your emotions, telling you that it will not come to pass.  Resist those lying winds!  I am stirring up a fresh new wind.  A sweet wind that will cause you to set your sails of faith towards Me once again.  Catch it, and flow with Me to the places of purpose.  I will set you on the straight path once again, do not be detoured.  It is a narrow and constricted path that I place you on, it is for your good.  Trust Me, I do know the way.  Learn to follow Me. No longer allow personal pain and disappointment to cause you to stand still in fear, but stand, fully persuaded that I am God and I cannot lie.  My purposes and plans will prevail if you stay in the force of My wind.  Only yield to My wind, not to the winds of doubt, lies, and unbelief of our enemy.  If you only look to Me, I will raise your sights, to see farther than you have been able to. I will lift your expectations again, with tokens of My goodness.

“Surely there is a future [and a reward],  Listen, my son, and be wise, And direct your heart in the way [of the Lord] Listen my son and be wise. and direct your heart  in the way of the Lord.” (Proverbs 23:18-19)

“Therefore say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God, “None of My words will be delayed any longer. Whatever word I speak will be fulfilled completely,”’” says the Lord God. (Ezekiel 12:28)

Good morning,

There is no greater melody that has ever been heard than the sounds of the righteous ones praising and worshiping Me.  For with every praise and every sound of worship, I have attached a blessing. Every time you praise Me, I lift you up higher and higher. If you only knew the things that I laid in your pathway for you, and they are being  revealed as you worship Me in these last hours and end of days. All heaven is at attention for they recognize the praises of the righteous ones causes My Word to answer, and all are looking over the portals of glory. When you praise Me, I Am responding to your requests, and I bring every blessing that I promise. Praise Me with everything that I put within. Praise Me with all your heart and you will see there will be nothing that I will withhold from your hand for your desires will be met. For this is my plan that as those who worship Me begin to worship Me in spirit and in truth, I will pour out upon them all that I prophesied, everything that I proclaimed, every promise that I have given. I will pour out upon the ones who abandoned themselves as a living sacrifice. I will see to it that your eyes are open and you will clearly see into the realms of glory where other men dared to walk, where men of old wanted to be. I will open your eyes and you will gaze upon the wonders of your Father and you will know things that they waited for generations and desire to know, you will walk in things that other men desired to do. Here at the end of days you will work My wonders, and great and mighty shall be your God in the midst of you. I will walk with you and I will sup with you and I will take of Mine and give it to you. 

“For the Lord God is a sun and shield: the Lord will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.” (Psalm 84:11)

“Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law.” (Psalm 119:18)

“But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.” (John 4:23)

Good morning,

 There is a “sonic boom”, that is about to be heard and felt.  A supernatural sound that will shake the world, but the greatest effect will be heard and felt in My house.  I am going to shake My “fruit” trees to get all that is ripe and ready to be enjoyed by Me and others.  Those who have been pruned by Me time and time again.  I have covered them and blanketed My “fruit” trees so that the heat and drought could not keep them from producing.  These “fruit” trees have been yielding to the work of My hands, hands that are gentle and firm.  I am firm in that I have kept them from withering from the heat of living and My gentleness has made them great.  In the days ahead they will provide the same kind of shade and covering for others that I gave to them.  The lost, and even those who have trusted in their strength, who dwell in My house, will begin crying for covering from the heat of their lives.  You, My yielded “fruit” trees that have been growing almost unnoticed by those around you will help them find My shade.  You have gathered strength, stability, wisdom, and insight from staying close to Me.  Now, when it is least expected you will stretch out your branches to all those who are being burnt by their ways.  To them, it will look like you grew suddenly, yet all along you have yielded to Me and My ways, growing stronger, little by little.  I have been preparing you for this season.  It is your time to shine!  So arise and let all see what I have done in you.  Let them come and taste of you and see that the Lord is good.  This “sonic boom” will blast through the darkness, causing great light to shine bringing fresh understanding for you.  It will blast away the gloom and break your atmosphere into the songs of the angels that surround you.  The difficulties that you have experienced will be made into stairways of light and glory.  You will get the revealing words and information that I have been speaking to you all this time, but it was hard for you to hear.  I have enlarged you, so stretch out!  Rapidly, as the sonic causes shock waves so it will be for you My faithful ” fruit” trees,”  you will send shockwaves through this world..  You have come forth for your prepared time!  

“Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is. For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.” Jeremiah 17:7-8

“To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he might be glorified.” Isaiah 61:3

“And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.” Psalm 1:3

Good morning,

You have been seeing blessings and battles, a combination of them together. You have gone from trials and tribulations to victories from victories to trials and tribulations. You are always asking Me to make it smooth for you and I say to you that this is the way of a warrior. That is the way you fight from blessings to battles and from battles to blessings, from trial and tribulation to victory. I always provide a way of escape during battle, trial, or tribulation. Hold your head up high, do not allow the enemy to cause you to look down but keep your eyes looking up for all the time I Am working things out for you. During every battle, you are always blessed. Every trial and tribulation turns to a victory as long as you remember all of your blessings. I Am working on your behalf to bring you to your promise land. Remember Job and everything that he went through, you understand that the enemy came for his words. He is coming after your words too and in the end, everything turned out for Job’s good because he learned how to fight in the midst of the battle and not give up. You know how to stand on My Word and not be moved too. So the blessings are on the way. Be strong and victorious for every promise I have given you is yes and amen!

“There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.” (1 Corinthians 10:13)

“Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ’s sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy” (1 Peter 4:12-13)

“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. (Romans 8:28)

Good morning,

This is the generation that I’ve been waiting for. 

This is the generation that I’ve been waiting for.

Those who are seated with Me in heavenly places. 

Those who can see things before they happen because they trust in Me. 

They have ears to hear and eyes to see things before they come to pass says the Lord.

I Am opening up mysteries to a generation who are catching up to Me and who are hungry for Me. They will open their ears and eyes and know that I Am downloading secrets to succeed in the days ahead.

I have invited you into the secret council of the most high God. I Am revealing to you things that other generations, your ancestors wish they would have known.  You are going to carry out My plan in a fresh new way, in a powerful way. I Am placing on you a fresh new robe, an anointed robe.  A robe where you can walk through the fires of this world through trials and tribulations and not allow the flames to touch your anointing because you are hidden in Me. You have been pursuing Me for a while and you have found the secret place.  

Those who are hungry and thirsty I said that I would fill to overflowing. I invite all who are outside of My protection to come under My mighty arms and be inaccessible to the forces of darkness. Those who know their God will be strong and do mighty exploits in the times that are ahead. These are My children, My own My very own that are taken underneath My wings that cover them and shield them from the things that are coming upon the earth before I come and bring My children away to the place that I have prepared for them. I have been longing to take My own to Myself. And those who are prepared and ready I will receive.  My children stay steady. Stay in My love and My presence. Stir yourself up in the Word. Everything that you have walked through with My Word will cause you to become stronger and wiser. That enemy of ours desired to use those things to cause you to stumble and fall but I turn those very trials to your good and benefit. I will bring you closer to Me if your eyes are on Me not on the things of this world for they will surely pass away but I Am consistent and faithful to the end. I will never pass away, My words will not falter nor fail you.  Again know that the earth may tremble and fail but you stay faithful, for I Am faithful to you. Pursue Me, stay humble, and together We will do great things. 

“And we know [with great confidence] that God [who is deeply concerned about us] causes all things to work together [as a plan] for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to His plan and purpose.” (Romans 8:28)

“I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of thy wings. Selah.” (Psalm 61:4)

“And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:” (Ephesians 2:6)

Love,

Good morning,

    I have been speaking to My people for years and it has come to a point where I Am telling you once again to draw near to Me. I said I have given you years, two years to be clearer and it is not about compiling or stockpiling up things. You can build your barns and fill them to the roof and in a moment it could all be destroyed. What I have required of you is that you build your relationship with Me. I have torn the veil in two so that you can easily come into My presence. There is not a great abundance of requirements. It is just simply stepping into Me. Angels are ascending and descending on your behalf that has never changed. I Am always working on your behalf. So as the doors are open, as the veil has been ripped, come in, and that is what I Am requiring you to learn in this time that I have given you, to come in. Everything you need is in Me. It is not in this world. This world does not have enough for you. This world is running headlong into great darkness. I Am the All Sufficient One. I meet all of your needs according to My riches in glory, you need not look to this world as your provider, healer, or counselor.  All of the dependency on this world’s support must be shifted to Me and I Am more than enough. The foundation of this world will be shaken from the core, and the rulers of this world will come to naught as will the system that has been deteriorating from the inside. Everything you need, I Am. I Am requiring you to learn how to bring yourself and others into that secret place, into your hiding place.  So learn how to come into Me and how to take this time to press into Me. For those who worship Me in spirit and truth, they are in that secret place, and in the secret place, you will find all that you need. So in all this time that I have given you, it is for you to learn the secret of knowing Me, it is to draw near to Me and draw close to Me. For in drawing nearer and closer to Me then you hear everything that I Am speaking to you in the moment and it is priceless. It is worth it all to have information and insight in every direction needed from Me your Father. A Father that takes care of His own. I Am not moved by the insufficiencies of the world’s system nor Am I moved by the prosperity of the world’s systems, for I Am El Shaddai.

    ”But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” (Phil. 4:19)

    ”His voice shook the earth [at Mount Sinai] then, but now He has given a promise, saying, “Yet once more I will shake not only the earth, but also the [starry] heaven.” Now this [expression], “Yet once more,” indicates the removal and final transformation of all those things which can be shaken—that is, of that which has been created—so that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.  Therefore, since we receive a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us show gratitude, and offer to God pleasing service and acceptable worship with reverence and awe; (Heb. 12:26-28)

    ”I press on toward the goal to win the [heavenly] prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.  All of us who are mature [pursuing spiritual perfection] should have this attitude. And if in any respect you have a different attitude, that too God will make clear to you.” (Phil. 3:14-15)

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.

     “My son, forget not my law or teaching, but let your heart keep my commandments; For length of days and years of a life [worth living] and tranquility [inward and outward and continuing through old age till death], these shall they add to you. Let not mercy and kindness [shutting out all hatred and selfishness] and truth [shutting out all deliberate hypocrisy or falsehood] forsake you; bind them about your neck, write them upon the tablet of your heart.” (Proverbs 3:1-3)

     “And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him: For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.” (Hebrews 12:5-6)

     “Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God. And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.” (Romans 8:26-28)

Good morning,

   Open wide your gates so that the King of Glory may come in. This is something you must do every day for My Word says, give us this day our daily bread. Often by the sin of omission, you will open up gates to other things in your life. So every day you must open the gate and allow Me to come in. I will come in with wisdom, insight, healing, and everything that you need. I will bring it to you, I will make it available to you. I will uncover those things in your life that have been covered for years. Every day that you allow those gates to be opened, I will come in and reveal myself to you in a fresh new way every day. Open those gates and by opening those gates I mean to come and sup with Me. Come and daily take the bread that I have for you which is a living sustenance that will bring strength, insight, and ability. For My people have been found with too many gods and they have allowed other gods to usurp the authority and the place in their lives, by the sin of omission, by not opening up the gates every day to Me, other gods have access to your heart, to your lives, to your gateways.  

    So I say to you today as you open these gates once again fresh and new every day, I will come and sup with you and reveal to you mysteries. I will speak to you things that you know not of. I will reveal to you the hidden recesses of My heart and My mind. I will allow you to know the deep things and you will walk in them in the days ahead and men will see the difference between you and those who are not like Me. Those who are separate those who are called apart, those who have consecrated themselves will see the difference, and some will want it but they will not run after it or put forth the effort, and for others, it will be cast aside as so much dung to them. But for you that continue to hearken to My voice I will allow you to walk in the high places, to know Me, and to understand Me. The decisions that you make and the choices that you make from this moment on will be only because you have been with Me and know My Word. Everything that you do from this moment on will be based on My Word not on your feelings, not on the circumstances but on My Word. you will become more like Me every day that you open the gates. So open the gates, do it daily and you will know Me more intimately.

    ”Lift up your heads, O you gates; yes, lift them up, you age-abiding doors, that the King of glory may come in.” (Psalm 24:9)

    ”Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears and listens to and heeds My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and will eat with him, and he [will eat] with Me.” (Revelation 3:20)

    ”But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a dedicated nation, [God’s] own purchased, special people, that you may set forth the wonderful deeds and display the virtues and perfections of Him Who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.” (1 Peter 2:9)

Love,

Pastor D.
