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,

As you choose to draw nearer to Me by consecrating your hearts afresh and renewing the fires in your heart this year you will be set ablaze. My glory will begin to consume and destroy things out of your lives and hearts that should have been expelled years ago. This glory will separate the godly from the profane, for My people have been found trying to blend both the godly and the profound. The judgment that started during the time of COVID will intensify and many will be mercifully removed, some removed because of tainting My Word and mixing it with demonic teaching. Some simply following others’ teachings, and still others were fully aware but because of trying to build their own kingdom, not Mine, which made them gullible to the lies of the enemy. For I have been long-suffering and tolerant, not desiring that any should perish but that they should come to everlasting life through repentance. I have put up with the lies, the misuse, and the abuse of My people and now I Am calling for holiness. Cleansing will begin in My house. I Am holy and all who say that they are Mine must be holy too. Those who recognize My call to righteousness will hear, obey, repent, and make straight paths for their feet. Many will not hear and they will be removed. Time is running out for continually missing the mark. My house will return to their first love in purity and righteousness. I will remove all the lying prophets as well. Those who have said, “Thus saith the Lord” and I have not spoken to them. Many following the prophets who spoke those lies, repeated the same lies. To My sheep that have continued to pursue Me, I will say to you, do not be hearers only but become doers of My word. I Am coming for a church without spot or wrinkle, one who hears and does My word. Those ways of yours that are not My ways, take them to the altar and burn them up. No more excuses for playing with sin and weaknesses of the flesh. I have fully supplied you with everything necessary to see to it that you become like Me. Wash yourself thoroughly with My Word, and come out from among them and be separate, a vessel prepared and used for My glory.

“Her priests have done violence to My law and have profaned My holy things. They have made no distinction between the sacred and the secular, neither have they taught people the difference between the unclean and the clean and have hid their eyes from My Sabbaths, and I am profaned among them. Her princes in the midst of her are like wolves rending and devouring the prey, shedding blood and destroying lives to get dishonest gain. And her prophets have daubed them over with whitewash, seeing false visions and divining lies to them, saying, Thus says the Lord God—when the Lord has not spoken.” (Ezekiel 22:26-28)

“So, come out from among [unbelievers], and separate (sever) yourselves from them, says the Lord, and touch not [any] unclean thing; then I will receive you kindly and treat you with favor,” (2 Corinthians 6:17)

And if the righteous are barely saved, what will become of the godless and wicked?” (1 Peter 4:17)

Good morning,

I cover you with a weighted blanket of love and it is because you worship Me and love Me, that you have found the secret place which is My chambers. It is the place where nothing and no one can enter unless I invite them in and you found it through intimate worship of Me. Serenades of love to Me and I receive them and I in turn cover you with the weightiness of My glory. In this place of safety is where you can be secure. In this place of safety you can lift up those cares, all of those things that I said to cast on Me because I care for you. Those things that you have tried to fix on the outside of the glory realm and My presence as well as those outside of My chambers. Know that you were never meant to carry them. There is nothing that is too difficult or too hard for Me. Those things that you find too much for you are meant for Me to speak to. So I say cast every care over on Me and you will experience this weightlessness of being so close to Me. So come in to Me. Come and sit and sup with Me. Find this place daily for it is My desire for you to grow from glory to glory to glory, where the cares of this world no longer affect you like they have in the past. Then you know My heart and My secret is for you to be in Me where nothing affects you. Staying here will keep you sensitive to Me so that when I come I will find faith in you. This year you are required to walk in My love. It has power to open doors that have been closed in your life. Living in My love lifts you above all who have not had My love poured abroad in their hearts. I will teach you higher wisdom and you will walk in this shield of My love. It is a covering love because you will not hold oughts that have bound you for years. The oil of forgiveness will flow from your heart. Your heart will be filled with My love which will empower you to keep and walk in My Word, no longer being deceived by the unrenewed heart. The empowerment of My love will cause you to walk in My gifts of power. Those who draw close will have signs and wonders following them able to fulfill their destiny and purpose of living.

“He will cover you and completely protect you with His pinions, And under His wings you will find refuge; His faithfulness is a shield and a wall.” (Psalm 91:4)

“Ah Lord God! Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and by Your outstretched arm! There is nothing too difficult or too wonderful for You” (Jeremiah 32:17)

“Behold, I stand at the door [of the church] and continually knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him (restore him), and he with Me. He who overcomes [the world through believing that Jesus is the Son of God], I will grant to him [the privilege] to sit beside Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down beside My Father on His throne.” (Revelation 3:20-21)

Good morning,

Goodness and mercy shall follow you all the days of your life, that is My word. You have not begun to see the goodness, but My mercy is new every morning. It usually is not seen or acknowledged by My children. The plots and plans of the enemy are to kill, steal, and destroy, I come to give you life and that more abundantly. It is My mercy giving life daily, thwarting all of the enemy’s plan of destruction. I will open your eyes to see how merciful I Am towards you every day. I Am a great lover. There is nothing that I have not done that did not come from the place of love for you. I have always sought you out, always done what was good for you. I draw you closer every day with My goodness, which is joy, beauty, good things, and prosperity in every area of your life. I Am always, always beckoning you to come close. Amid everything that you go through in your life, I Am the only one who will never forsake you, never leave you. I will not abandon you or leave you helpless and hopeless. For I Am the God of all hope and encouragement, and I Am always trying to bring you up higher, all I need from you is a yielded heart, and I will do the work that I designed and purposed before you were even born. Which is a greater call, a greater anointing, a greater advancement than you could ever know. I Am willing, waiting, and desiring to pour out blessings in your life that you will not have room enough to receive. There are blessings in you that will cause you to be blessed on the outside and that is why I Am overloading it, overpouring on the inside of you more of My blessings, understanding, insight, and wisdom. Abilities that you did not possess I Am giving to you now so that in the days ahead, you might know who you really are and be able to stand against the wiles of the enemy and know your Father and know your God. I Am faithful to My promise, faithful to do exactly what I said I would do amid anything that comes in your life. I Am still faithful.

“Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.” (Psalm 23:6)

“The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” (John 10:10)

“A faithful man shall abound with blessings: but he that maketh haste to be rich shall not be innocent.” ( Proverbs 28:20)

Good morning,

As you allow Me and let Me do the work on the inside of you, for I know the purpose and the design that I have for you. Before you were formed in your mother’s womb I knew you and I designed and made a purpose for you. And if you will allow Me every day to do the work in you, in the end, you will be exactly what I called you to be and when I come, I will find you holy. I will find you whole, I will find you sound says the Lord, exactly how I created you to be and you will fulfill the design and the purpose that I have for you. You will not miss a beat if you will allow Me to do the work for I Am busy all the time working on the inside of you. I never cease if you let Me for I have a plan and I Am working My plan out for your good. There is nothing that has come into your life brought by the enemy that was meant to destroy you that I did not turn around for good for the plan and the purpose. I Am doing it now says the Lord. I Am fixing the crooked places, if you will comply. If you will allow I will see to it that in the end, all glory and honor will come to Me thereby you will receive the glory as well says the Lord. So allow Me to finish what I start I am not like man that I should lie. Every word in Me is yes and amen which means I will do it. I will complete it. I will finish the work I started in you. You are not hopeless, one without hope. Every day My mercies are shed upon you to allow that hope on the inside of you to raise fresh and new so that you can begin to see what I see, that I Am working on your behalf. Everything will turn around for your good no matter where it is coming from, where the root of it is, what the design of it has been assigned by the enemy and you see his plan, but Mine is greater. I will do it. So I say rejoice. Rejoice in the fact that you know Me, rejoice in the fact that I keep My promises and I do not lie. Rejoice in the fact that I Am doing it even now.

“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).

“And I will bring the blind by a way that they knew not; I will lead them in paths that they have not known: I will make darkness light before them, and crooked things straight. These things will I do unto them, and not forsake them.” (Isaiah 42:16)

“It is because of the Lord’s lovingkindnesses that we are not consumed, Because His [tender] compassions never fail. They are new every morning; The Lord is my portion and my inheritance,” says my soul; Therefore I have hope in Him and wait expectantly for Him.” (Lamentations 3:22-24)

Good morning,

I have sounded my alarm, I have raised My trumpet and My voice. I have sent warnings upon warnings to My children and that is why you must listen to what I have spoken about five foolish and five wise virgins, they are all My bride, and I Am the bridegroom and I have been calling to My bride. Five have filled themselves up with more of Me. Those are the ones who are seeing My glory and see Me moving. They can hear what I Am doing, they are tuned in to Me because they have required of necessity to know Me. Five that are foolish are here in My house but they are not hearing, they are not seeing, and they are not tuning into Me. Yet, I still cry out to them, but they are all my Bride. I have shown in My word, that there is a separation coming between the wheat and the tare and so I Am crying out to My bride to prepare herself. I Am soon to come, open your eyes awake from your slumber, fill yourself up with more and more of Me, and stay present with Me. Hunger and thirst for more of Me and I will fill you until you overflow. Stir up the fires that once burned bright. If there are no embers burning, start a fire and stir it up. For I Am soon to come and just as I have said in My Word, there will be two working together, one will be taken and one will be left. I Am crying out to My bride to prepare herself! I Am making things clearer for the time is now that you must be like the sons of Issachar, that you must know, understand, and discern the signs and the times that you are in. You cannot afford to be asleep, you must be alert. So wake up, wake up, and shake off the slumber of this world and the slumber that the cares of this life try to put on you. You know that while you are asleep the enemy sows tares of the weights of this world. You must walk free from them and then you will see Me and you will walk away from those things that are weighing you down. Then your lamp will be full of oil that you might see in the dark and through the great darkness that comes to lull others to sleep. I Am giving you time to stir yourself up and renew your flame. Get in My Word time is running out for this lazy spirit that My church has fallen into. Five foolish, five wise, who will you be?

“Then the kingdom of heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went to meet the bridegroom. Five of them were foolish (thoughtless, without forethought) and five were wise (sensible, intelligent, and prudent). For when the foolish took their lamps, they did not take any [extra] oil with them; But the wise took flasks of oil along with them [also] with their lamps.” ( Matthew 25:1-4; read verses 5-13)

“And of Issachar, men who had understanding of the times to know what Israel ought to do, 200 chiefs; and all their kinsmen were under their command;” (1 Chronicles 12:32)

“Blessed and fortunate and happy and spiritually prosperous (in that state in which the born-again child of God enjoys His favor and salvation) are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness (uprightness and right standing with God), for they shall be completely satisfied!” (Matthew 5:6)

Good morning,

Listen and take heed! It will be as in one moment the sun is shining and in the very next dark clouds looming. Darkness is violently trying to overtake the light, but the light will prevail in greater force. For this nation has pushed the Almighty to the side. Yet, I have some who refuse to bow their knees to Baal. They are the reason for my long-suffering, My bride, My church, and those who love Me so deeply. I have been calling for my bride, the church, to purge, purify, and prepare for her soon-coming King. Some have not heeded My voice at all and it has been as if I am crying in the desert. They refuse to draw close enough to hear Me. Still, some are sensing an urgency, even some who have left My house are coming back for they sense a drawing to Me. For those who have been close, I hear your cry and you are why I am stirring Myself up. Some of my children have become distant and hard-hearted, and I continue to pour oil and fire to aid and assist them in staying interested in Me. They have fallen and deceived themselves into thinking they stand. I am crying, “Awaken and stir yourself up to Me.” I have been the one upholding preserving, and sustaining you from the evil around you. Our enemy is running with vengeance to try and deceive this nation. I need My people to be alert!

I have held My peace and soon I will let go, because of the cries of My little ones. In my house, there will be only holiness. This is a time for a repentant heart, My people should be crying out on behalf of this nation. Otherwise, this great nation will be brought to shock and horror, for their acts of discarding Me, their only hope. They have built their own gods and they have become their own source. Shortly, there will come a great shaking that will begin in the northeast which will be duplicated in the west. It will cause fear and dread in men’s hearts, but not for long. They will turn and curse Me, for their trust is in themselves. I will allow them to have what they have spoken against Me. They will reap sorrow because they continually reject my mercy.

My children who have prepared themselves by praying in the Spirit and building themselves up in their faith, the Spirit has brought them to My feet to learn My voice and the voice of My word. They have hearkened to My call and renewed their first love. They shall be strong and victorious, they will overcome darkness and shine forth, they will be radiant, for their hope is in Me. They will be brought forth as pure luminous gold. I will not disappoint her, for she is Mine, and nations will look and see My glory through her.

Those who have ears to hear, hear clearly. Prepare with a time of fasting, prayer, and worship. Desperately seek Me, for your living does depend upon it. I will hearken to your voice, for you have hearkened to Mine. You have made Me your refuge and I will come and cover you. I will reveal Myself to you as El-Shaddai, the Almighty God who takes care of His own and supplies needs and gives hearts desires. For you, there will be an everlasting sun even through the days of darkness.

“Son of man, I have made you a watchman to the house of Israel; therefore hear the word at My mouth and give them warning from Me.” (Ezekiel 3:17)

“Pray at all times (on every occasion, in every season) in the Spirit, with all [manner of] prayer and entreaty. To that end keep alert and watch with strong purpose and perseverance, interceding in behalf of all the saints (God’s consecrated people).” (Ephesians 6:18)

“That He might present the church to Himself in glorious splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such things [that she might be holy and faultless]” (Ephesians 5:27).

Good morning,

It is when you declare. It is when you decide, when you proclaim, when you shout at the enemy. It is when you run at the enemy like my servant David did unafraid, declaring with your mouth that the victory belongs to your God. Know that there is no weapon that is formed against you that you shall ever prosper. It is in your mouth by your word. The lineup with My Word is the yes and amen to My Word. When you fill yourself to overflow with My Word and then come out with power and authority, you shall shout at the enemy and cause him to stammer and stutter and fall at the sound of your voice. When your voice is backed with the power of heaven. All of heaven backs your word, when you speak My Word, every enemy that comes against, you will bow their knee for all of heaven is at your assistance, to do whatever you say. It is according to My Word coming from your mouth and it shall come to pass, and it shall happen. It does not matter what things you see along the way, you are only moved by My Word. I cause signs to turn around for your good and for your favor, as you fill yourself full of My Word and My Power. In the days ahead as everybody else is shaking, shaking because the whole core of their world has been shaken I will declare in the midst of that, shaking that My people will come out victorious in every area and every aspect of their life. They will shout the victory and the enemy will know that I Am in the midst of the camp of My children for they will not be moved no matter what is seen because they know that I Am on the scene, and I Am working all things out for their good. I Am their Defender, their King, their Conqueror. I Am the one who brings back the valor and the victory and share the glory with My children. The enemy will bow their knee and they will understand that the Greater one abides and lives on the inside of you. Therefore, there is nothing that will ever come against you that you will not overcome for I Am the overcomer and I cause you to overcome too.

“Men swooning away or expiring with fear and dread and apprehension and expectation of the things that are coming on the world; for the [very] powers of the heavens will be shaken and caused to totter.” (Luke 21:26)

“And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the Lord of hosts.” (Malachi 3:11)

“For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.” (1 John 5:4)

Good morning,

In the midst of all that is going on in the world, there is an excitement welling up on the inside of believers. We can sense that our God has brought us to this place for some of our greatest moments as the Body of Christ. We are about to truly represent the Kingdom of God like never before. He has made the promise that light shines the brightest when it is the darkest! Let us meditate on this prophetic word and begin to decree what our Father is saying.

Stubborn stains of sin, all those stubborn stains and they keep trying to pop back up. You have applied the blood and you have applied the Word, but it seems that it will scrub it away for a moment but then it comes back up again. Hear the voice of the Father: These stubborn stains will be removed. There are specific ones in each one of your heart and life and mind that I Am removing today.

Those who have been asking Me over, and over again, “Why God, why does this keep happening. Why do I keep feeling this way? Why do I have to keep dealing with this?” If you have said those things to Me and you keep saying God, “I’m trying, I’m trying”. Hear Me say to you:

There are set times, times that all that you have been doing have brought you to. There was a set time at the pool of Bethesda. There was a set time for your Lord, My Son to come. Set times, and in those set times supernatural occurrences happen and all “the time” has been bringing you to your set time. Do not despise those washings that you have gone through over, and over, and over again, for it has brought you to this set time.

This transition will open up a large and broad way. This is a set time and when I finish, everyone will know that you have been with Me in preparation for your set time. Mark it and tattoo it in your heart, do not just put it on a sheet of paper, make a banner about it, so that every time you run by it, you will reinforce your set time by declaring it with your mouth. Put it on something where you will see it all the time. You will say with your mouth, this day I received my set time, I was always being brought to this moment. Everything that I have been doing, everything that I have gone through, every struggle, every test, and every trial has brought me to my set time and I have come to the pool of Bethesda and I Am made whole!

“Thou shalt arise, and have mercy upon Zion: for the time to favour her, yea, the set time, is come.” (Ps. 102:13)

“He brought me forth also into a large place: he delivered me, because he delighted in me.” (2 Samuel 22:20)

“And the Lord answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.” (Hab. 2:2-3)

Love,

Pastor D.
