December 19, 2025 – Ears to Hear/Hearts to Obey

Good morning,

I have been meditating on Genesis 5:22, “Enoch walked in [habitual fellowship] with God after the birth of Methuselah 300 years and had other sons and daughters.” I know this is an allegory. Enoch is compared to the end-time “raptured” church. Just think, we need to be a people that walk in habitual fellowship. Let’s look at these words, habitual and fellowship. First, we must understand that Enoch didn’t become a recluse in order to walk in habitual fellowship. He did not stop having relationship with others [for he had more sons and daughters, that takes relationship]. He ended up spending the majority of his time with the One whose company he enjoyed the most. Habitual means acquired by custom or frequent repetition of the same act; formed by repeated impressions; rendered permanent by continued action or use; made familiar by frequent practice.

Before I was a Christian, I use to smoke cigarettes, take drugs and curse like it was an official language. I practiced these things just by frequent use and continued acts. After the initial start of them, I just did them everyday. It wasn’t anything that I had to give too much thought to after a while. It became as natural as breathing. You know you don’t have to go around saying to yourself, don’t forget to breathe (unless, you have a illness). Well, by repeating the same action over and over again, day in and day out, it becomes a habitual practice. Cursing spilled out as if I had stayed up all night trying to put those vulgar words together, but I hadn’t. I perfected it by frequent use.

Keeping that in mind, think about our relationship with God the same way. In the beginning when you first became a Christian, you had to start reading your Bible and initiate prayer and worship to God. You were starting a fresh new habit. After a while of being in frequent practice and continued use, it should be natural for you to pray, read your Bible and worship God. Practicing the presence of God, walking and talking with Him all day long, living a life of prayer and worship should become a habit. God is soooo good and His company is sweet. It’s so simple that we often try to make it difficult with all of our man-made rules. In the end they frustrate the purpose of God and we end up with religion and not relationship. Do you time your conversation with a close friend? Do you talk only once a day to your child, your mate, your buddy? It becomes a duty instead of developing a Godly habit. No, I talk to my daughter about three or four times a day, I do the same with my husband and my closest friend. I have never timed our conversations. And if it wasn’t for my cell phone that does time my phone calls, I would never know how long I’ve been on the phone. Why? Usually, I enjoy our talks! When was the last time you just enjoyed talking to God? So, the first thing we have to do is stop putting God on a time-clock. Second thing, just lean back and let ‘er rip, enjoy God. He is the One who started relationships after all. I imagine He knows how to form a good habit with you also. He’s quite entertaining, gifted, knowledgeable, unique and incredible in His ability to make you feel comfortable around Him. I really like Him, as well as love Him.

I believe that is what Enoch discovered. That God was so awe-inspiring, so positive and just plain likable. Enoch couldn’t get enough of God. That brings us to the next word, fellowship. Fellowship means companionship, familiar company, a state of being together, intimate familiarity, frequency of intercourse – [connection; communication or exchange; a passing between]. This fellowship is developed by frequent use or continual acts of simply talking to God. God is so awesome, just think, He can converse in any language, so He is accessible to everyone. He made us, so He knows all about why we are the way we are and He knows how to straighten out the crooked places in us. Yet He wants us to get to know Him and hang around Him. He knows the issues of all of mankind, the roots of them, and how to get rid of the roots. Who else knows all that about you, and still wants to be intimate with you? If most people knew everything about you (even your thoughts), you would be by yourself.

Yes, we must become a generation of Enoch’s. The only way is to let the love of God teach you the way to “walk in habitual fellowship” with God. He is coming for those who are so in love with Him that they can’t get enough of Him. Right where you are, forgive yourself for trying to do it man’s way, now let Holy Spirit show you the way. You will delight to walk all day in the presence of God, that’s habitual fellowship. It will be said of all of us, “and they were not, for God took them home with Him.”

Love,

Good morning,

I have given to each and every one of you a part to complete the Body. That is why there are many facets of Me in every part of My Body, in every part that represents Me. I have been waiting for you to step into what I have called you to, into things that are just beginning, and it seems like it is almost the ending. That is the natural man point of view. My giftings and callings are supernatural, I Am super abundantly above those things. I will complete what I start. I finish everything that I start, and I will complete in you those things that I have begun to do in you. I Am clearing those things out that are not like Me, and sometimes for most of My children, it takes years of marinating and staying in My Word to remove those things because they have been hemmed in, chained in and locked into you. It takes years of sitting in My Word, staying in My Word, to remove those curses, those chains, and those bars that keep you from being pliable in My hand. But as you stay in My word, you become more pliable every time. You are yielding more. Others cannot see it because sometimes it looks like nothing has shifted in you, but I Am working constantly. As you yield, I work with yielded vessels, and as long as you yield to Me, I will work with you. I Am doing super abundantly above all that you have asked or even dreamed or thought that I could do. I Am doing it in you. I Am making you just like Me. You are beginning to think like Me, act like Me, say what I say, and the more that you do, the more you will become accustomed to who I Am in you. Allow Me to do those things. Do not work against Me as I do those things, allow Me, let Me, and you will be amazed at who you really are, because I stand in awe of everything that I have made, and I Am not through accomplishing My will in you. Allow Me to finish what I start.

“So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.” (Isaiah 55:11)

“Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us” (Ephesians 3:20)

“And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ,” (Ephesians 4:11-12)

“For as we have many members in one body, but all the members do not have the same function, so we, being many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another.” (Romans 12:4-5)

Good morning,

This is a Word that we received from the Lord ten years ago, I heard it again in my heart. Let’s yield ourselves to the Father more. Something supernatural, yet even unusual for those of us who are His is upon the horizon. Let’s be ready to take our position, we will not let this season pass, we will be fruitful!

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 hasmade 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 own 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. 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 own 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 boom makes quick changes, so it will be for you My faithful ” fruit” trees. You have come forth for your prepared time!

“Blessed [with spiritual security] is the man who believes and trusts in and relies on the Lord And whose hope and confident expectation is the Lord. For he will be [nourished] like a tree planted by the waters, That spreads out its roots by the river; And will not fear the heat when it comes; But its leaves will be green and moist. And it will not be anxious and concerned in a year of drought. Nor stop bearing fruit. (Jeremiah 17:7,8)

“To grant to those who mourn in Zion the following: To give them a turban instead of dust [on their heads, a sign of mourning], The oil of joy instead of mourning, The garment [expressive] of praise instead of a disheartened spirit. So they will be called the trees of righteousness [strong and magnificent, distinguished for integrity, justice, and right standing with God], The planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified.” (Isaiah 61:3)

“You will arise and have mercy and loving-kindness for Zion (the believers as well), for it is time to favor her, yes, the set time (the designated moment by God) has come.” Rapid changes for you!” (Psalm 102:13)

We are in that season. Where sin abounds, grace abounds more and more! (Romans 5:20). Grace, God’s ability covering our inability. We are now super abounding, by faith.

Love,

Good morning,

You are just like Joseph. You may have been thrown into a pit or feel like you are in a prison, but I Am using those hard, difficult situations, those trials, tests, and tribulations to turn around for your good. Remember, Joseph said to his brother, you meant this for evil, but the Lord meant it for my good. So it is not only for you that I Am working things out, but it is for your seed and your seeds seed, that they might know that there is a God. I never stop and I never quit until every promise that I have given. I Am watching over My word even now, concerning you to bring to pass every promise that I Am giving you. Do not lose sight of what is going on, for the enemy will cause you to look around to see the things that he is doing. For he is causing chaos, he is causing trouble, he is behind all these things but these things must come in order for you to learn to keep your eyes on Me. I never change. It does not matter what is going on in your life. I never change. I Am consistent. I Am working things out for you. It is not based on the circumstances of your life. It is based on My promise and My faithfulness to you I watch over My Word to perform. My Word and I have spoken to you individually that I will never leave you, I will never forsake you, I will never quit. Everything I have spoken to you is yes and amen, that means I Am bringing it to pass. I Am using the hard things to bring it to pass so that you might be strong, immovable and always abounding. Hold on to My Word, it is what is keeping you. I will cause your eyes to look to the eternal, to the everlasting, not to the temporary. I use the temporary to bring about the everlasting, to bring about the eternal. Keep your eyes on Me.

“As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good, to bring it about that many people should be kept alive, as they are today.” (Genesis 50:20)

“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 4:18)

“Let your eyes look directly ahead [toward the path of moral courage] And let your gaze be fixed straight in front of you [toward the path of integrity].
Consider well and watch carefully the path of your feet, And all your ways will be steadfast and sure.” (Proverbs 4:25-26)

Good morning,

I am constantly being reminded of Matthew 24:10-13; “And many will turn away from Me and betray and hate each other. And many false prophets will appear and deceive (cause to err; cause to roam from safety truth or virtue; to seduce one to wander; to be out of the right way) many people. Sin will be rampant everywhere and the love of many will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end shall be saved.” I have talked once before, how vitally important it is for us as Christians to keep our godly love lives stirred up. Also, the ‘love’ word in that verse can only be referring to those who have been born-again. For the word is is actually, agape which is the god type of love, which is His love that was shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit. (Rom. 5:5) Romans 12:10; says for us to be, “devoted to one another in brotherly love; (which is phileo-love) give preference to one another in love.” Ephesians 4;2 says, “Living as becomes you with complete lowliness of mind (humility) and meekness (unselfishness, gentleness, mildness) with patience bearing with one
another and making allowance because you love one another.” Why, is she still talking about this ‘love thing’, I can hear you asking? Great, that you asked, now I’d like to explain it the way it was given to me.

The Lord said that we are all believing for something in our lives. The great distractions and cares of this world and all the recent troubles have caused most to become self- concerned. Our energy is being used just getting through the day, because of so many transitions, trials, tests, and tribulations that have taken place in our lives in such a short period. Adjusting takes a lot of our efforts. The enemy uses this time to try to get us to chip away at our foundation of our faith, which is the love of God. (I Corin. 13:13; Mtt. 22:35-40) Not walking in the love of God, especially toward the household of faith will affect our believing or our faith. “For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth anything, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh (our faith is activated; energized and expressed) by love.” (Gal.5:6) We must keep sowing seeds of love in order to keep our faith operative. We cannot be selfish, we must prefer one another. “For he who sows to his flesh (lower nature) will from the flesh will reap (harvest) decay and ruin and destruction, but he who sows to the Spirit (love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and meekness) will from the Spirit reap eternal life. And let us not lose heart and grow weary and faint in acting nobly and doing right; for in due time and at the appointed season we shall reap, if we do not loosen and relax our courage and faint.” (Gal.6:8-9)We do have help from on high. Jesus, who is our high priest ever liveth to make intercession for us. (Heb.7:25) Listen to this account that the Lord said to Peter. Luke 22: 31-32; “Simon, Simon, behold, Satan has asked excessively that [all of] you be given up to him [out of the power and keeping of God], that he might sift [all of] you like grain. But I have prayed especially for you, that your own faith may not fail; and when you yourself have turned again, strengthen and establish your brethren.” In order to have effective faith, we must keep our foundation of love secured. Don’t let the ‘little foxes’ of bitterness, unforgiveness, anger, hatred, etc., that are trying to destroy or damage our garden of love run rampant. Deal with them quickly. Forgive others, let them go, let it drop. Don’t step in the trap that is set to stop you from advancing in the Kingdom. Catch those ‘little foxes’ and throw them out of your garden! Remember the great intercessor is praying for us that our faith will not fail. If our faith doesn’t fail then our love will not grow cold.

Love,

Good Morning,

“The fastest runner doesn’t always win the race and the strongest warrior doesn’t always win the battle…” (Ecc. 9:11). “Don’t you realize that in a race everyone runs, but only one person gets the prize? So run to win…” (1 Corin. 9:24). Therefore since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life of faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us. We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who initiates and perfects our faith.” (Hebrews 12:1,2)

We all can sense the heaviness of despair and discouragement that has tried to seep into the hearts of believers. I am reminded of David who cried out, “Why am I so discouraged? Why is my heart so sad? I will put my hope in God! I will praise Him again – my Savior and my God.” (Psalm 42:5).

During difficult times, David chose to hope and praise God afresh and again. Listen to Jesus as He tells us the climate during the times of the end. “Sin will be rampant everywhere and the love of many will grow cold. But the one who endure to the end shall be saved.” (Matt. 24:12,13).

We must not let our hope be put off to some future day, we must place hope, fresh, new hope everyday in God and in His Word. He gives us fresh new mercies every morning, so we ought to offer God the same. Mercies for hope!! Jesus said those who endure—-{to undergo patiently, tarry, have fortitude, never give up, to stay and abide} to the end shall be saved. This world depicts the attitude of a person who is under a heavy load but refuses to surrender to defeat, because he knows he is in his place. “Endure suffering along with me, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. Soldiers don’t get tied up in the affairs of civilian life, for then they cannot please the officer who enlisted them.” (2 Timothy 2:3,4)

We must try and keep our focus on the eternal plan of our kingdom and not get so weighted down by these present sufferings of this temporal world or our temporary situations. The glory that is to come and the glory that is soon to be seen in the children of God will far outweigh any present sufferings, for it is temporary. Remember the enemy is trying to get your love for God to grow cold, through outward pressures of living. We are wiser than that!

The Spirit says: You are in your place, the place of transition and transformation. I have brought you here. Stand firm!! The place where I will come along and speak to you the sweet words of encouragement that you long to hear, stand still. Listen carefully, My words will change every fiber of faith that reside on the inside of you. Doubt, unbelief and discouragement will flee from you. Don’t you know that our enemy is afraid of you, who you are in Me. This is the reason he tries to stop you in the middle of your transition. He knows that I am doing a supernatural change in you. You will arise from the place of depression, for this is not your place, it is too tight for My child. You will be raised up with a renewed vision. A giant “believing believer” shall arise from this cocoon. You are in a state of metamorphosis, the real you is about to be revealed!!! You will come out looking just like Me. You will be brought to the place of, “open fields”, where I will enlarge and strengthen you. You are a strong victorious champion in Me. I see the end from the beginning and I know that your end is good. I see you standing and waving your victory banner. Lift up your hands to me and I will lift you up. As long as you keep your eyes on Me, I will bring you to the finish. Do not put your trust in that arm of flesh, lean totally on Me. As you lean on Me, you will receive with clarity of vision and hearing the steps that you must take. Your eyesight and your hearing have transcended to a higher level, because you have been purified of the blockages. You are advancing! You are advancing!

Love,

Pastor D.

Good morning,

Isaiah 43:2-3; “When you go through deep waters, I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty,you will not drown. When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you” ..verse 4 says, “Others were given in exchange for you. I traded their lives for yours, because you are precious to Me.” We are unstoppable, as long as we stay connected to our Lord. There is no circumstance, no test, trials or tribulations that would ever bring us down, if we would only learn to hide under the shadows of God’s mighty wings. God is our deliverer, our restorer and our protection. Our great UPS – our upholder, our preserver, our sustainer. Our rescuer! “Bring all who claim Me as their God, for I have made them for My glory.” (Isaiah 43:7) Just think about everything that you have endured, this year alone. God loves to take our worst days and use them for a turn around for the best days that are ahead. Your life brings God glory. That is a selah, pause, reflect and calmly think on that. You, yes, you bring the God of the universe and beyond, glory. Glory meaning, rare splendor and honor, and copiousness which is abundance; full supply and ample. Just think on that for a moment! You, the one who never feels quite adequate, you bring God an abundance, a full supply. You give Him a rare splendor and honor, by your life being lived for Him. When you go through you are being purified and raised to a new level in your faith.

Look at how God sees it. Isaiah 43:11-13; I, yes I Am the Lord, and there is no other Savior. First I predicted your rescue, then I saved you and proclaimed it to the world. No foreign god has ever done this. You are My witnesses that I Am the only God. No one can snatch anyone out of My hand. No one can undo what I have done.” It is plain and simple, we can’t lose if we stay in His hand. Now you are the only one that can remove yourself from the hand of God. No one else has that power, only you. So choose to stay in His firm and loving grip and you will pass through to the other side, stronger and a more formidable adversary to our enemy. The storms are passing over and when they do, more and better fruit will spring up. For those who are planted by the rivers bear fruit in all seasons and their leaves never wither and they prosper in all they do. Psalms 1:3; “And he shall be like a tree firmly planted [and tended] by the streams of water, ready to bring forth its fruit in its season; its leaf also shall not fade or wither; and everything he does shall prosper [and come to maturity].”

Love,

Good morning,

Remember the first love we enjoyed together! The days when you innocently began to desire Me, when you yearned to truly know Me. How you longed to know me. It was beautiful and you began the journey towards Me. I made you enticingly beautiful for Me, and your heart was very sensitive to My every Word.

Then you began to want something more, more like the place that I delivered you from. You began to long for the old familiar lovers, those who hurt you, abused you, ripped you of your honor and stripped you of your dignity. Those who stole your innocence and broke you into many tiny pieces. They made you lie, cheat, steal and even sell yourself for their pretentious love. The lovers who did not see the costly value of you. By the time you finally gave up and let go of the abuse of their love, you were shattered and broken. Yes, and remember I was there waiting for you to realize that there was real love for you. I then began to fix every broken place that was in tiny pieces. I never caused you any more damage, but gently and lovingly I repaired and replaced every broken dream and every shattered vision. I found you in the place of despair and right there I healed you and loved you. I placed in you and upon you My precious jewels; tenderness, kindness, meekness, joy, peace, goodness, faithfulness, self-control and love. I placed upon you a garment of praise for that spirit of heaviness, beauty for ashes of your broken life. I continued giving to you, a shield of faith, a helmet of salvation, belt of truth, a breastplate of righteousness and I placed on your feet the gospel of peace. I pulled your face out of the muck that your old lovers left you in. I have caused you to stand. I pre-pared and pre-paid a place for you, a place beyond all your dreams and imaginations. I have given you a place of honor with kings.

Now would you turn back to the place I picked you up from? What desires are you really longing for? It is the mind set of one who has never experienced My true love. You behave as one that has not known My presence. I desire for you to know Me more intimately, yet you desire the dung of this world.

Hear My voice as I again tenderly call you back to Me. Come away with Me, My fair one, come away where the little foxes cannot spoil our vineyard of love. Come away and come closer that you can look and gaze deeply into My eyes and see the longing that I have for you. You will remain Mine, only Mine. Your adulterous heart will be replaced with a faithful heart. For I Am a jealous love and I must have your heart alone, you must have eyes only for Me. Make your love “One” true love and make it Me. I Am awaiting your reply. Let it be, yes, for this will make you truly alive, living in My love!

Do not allow traditions of men, religious exercises, old loves and lovers of sin to separate you from Me. Run to Me and run away from the “old familiar voices”. I have given you My life, so now live it with Me. A lifetime of committed love. You have spent your life trying to get love from all others, all that I am asking is that you receive all that I have to give to you. Say yes to true love.

“My beloved speaks and says to me, Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away.” (Song of Solomon 2:10)

“For you shall worship no other god; for the Lord, Whose name is Jealous, is a jealous (impassioned) God,” (Exodus 34:14)

“The Lord your God is in the midst of you, a Mighty One, a Savior [Who saves]! He will rejoice over you with joy; He will rest [in silent satisfaction] and in His love He will be silent and make no mention [of past sins, or even recall them]; He will exult over you with singing.” (Zephaniah 3:17)

Good morning,

Because of your faithful love to Me, I will begin to sweep you away. In quiet moments of our intimate relationship, as you climb into My arms, I will bring you even closer. There you will begin to hear Me as I sing songs of Our victorious love. You will arise from that place of rest and become a recognizable force for the enemy, you will war with My Word, like you have never done before. A strong anointing shall rest upon you as you begin to rise to the level of the anointing that I have placed upon you. Because you have remained loyal to Me when it was easier for you to turn your back on Me, because you did not understand the season that you were in. You remembered your first love and kept the flame burning for Me. I Am enamored by your good love for Me. My sweet dove, My little ones who have looked always on My countenance. You are about to experience from heaven open doors, take this season and bring to Me those things that will expand My kingdom.

I Am now increasing the spirit of boldness, so that you may accomplish now, what was an impossibility in times past. Increased revelation flowing to you in the night season that will shine brighter than your noonday sun. Light that clears away all that darkness left behind, no more not knowing, but seeing clearly what I Am doing in this season. You are ones that will begin now, to display My glory and My righteousness. There will be no stopping you now. You have shaken off the slumber, the weights, the cares, take flight My mighty eagles. I will show you the vastness and the deepness of My heart, for you have been crying out; “more, more, I know that there is more of You and your awesomeness.” I Am responding to that deep longing and yearning of your heart, My bride, My fair one. I Am arising now to your aide and your rescue. Your meditation of Me has brought to you revelation upon revelation. For those who have not hearkened to My voice, the Spirit of the Lord says come, draw closer to Me, I am gathering My loves together. Pursuing Me has My rewards with it. In this place of safe refuge I will begin to shower you with healing waters, right now feel the soothing rivers flow. Flowing through all the broken places, the parched and stilled places of your heart and mind. I have never forsaken you, My dear ones. I was there when you were being assaulted, it was Me, that kept you alive and kept your mind sound. I never abandoned you, you are always Mine as long as you allow Me and keep your eyes on Me. I Am now hemming you in for your own protection and for your own keeping. Remain in Me, as I will remain steady and faithful to you.

“The wicked flee when no man pursues them, but the [uncompromisingly] righteous are bold as a lion.” (Proverbs 28:1)

“But those who wait for the Lord [who expect, look for, and hope in Him] shall change and renew their strength and power; they shall lift their wings and mount up [close to God] as eagles [mount up to the sun]; they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint or become tired.” (Isaiah 40:31)

“Then the cares and anxieties of the world and distractions of the age, and the pleasure and delight and false glamour and deceitfulness of riches, and the craving and passionate desire for other things creep in and choke and suffocate the Word, and it becomes fruitless.” (Mark 4:19)

Love,

Good morning,

I Am assembling a mighty army, one that does not listen to the lies of the enemy. One who has come through many trials, tests, and tribulations, purified by the fire. The fire that I allowed them to go through so that this day they might stand. A people unafraid to say what I say when I say it, speaking truth boldly in the midst of everything that is contrary to what I Am doing and what I Am saying. I Am saying to My people right now to prepare. To get themselves ready not to be set aside and set away, but to be prepared to be persecuted for the Truth of My Word. For many of My children have never yet understood persecution. You have gone along through this world saying whatever you want to, whenever you felt like it, but many times the enemy would send a small example of what persecution looked like. The persecution will be different, and those who come through will be those who have spent their time with Me. All who are godly will suffer persecution, Developing character, making sure that My Word is trustworthy and that it is in their heart so that at any moment they can speak it forth and see it come to pass. Letting it flow forth from their very being until it is who they are. Because they have become more like Me as they spend time in the secret place, ready and willing for the times and the days that are ahead.

So prepare yourself by going often into the secret place than you have ever gone. Begin to sit there. Listen, take heed. Pay attention to what I Am speaking to you for the days ahead they will not be light and easy, but you will come through victorious every time. For My Word will go before you as a banner of victory. You will stand. You will stand victorious through every situation and every circumstance. You will be bold, strong, and courageous. That is the Army that I have prepared. And nothing that I put My hand to fails, and you will not fail!
