Good morning,

As you keep running in the race, you may become weary, I encourage you to keep moving. Your promise land is so close, it is a breath away. You are stronger than when you first believed. Your spiritual muscles and stamina is much more than you think. The enemy will try to discourage you with all of the things you can see or feel. I know that the physical world is strong but it is not stronger than your spiritual world.  Here in the realm of the spirit you are always an overcomer, victory is yours no matter the temporary circumstances. I Am sending you help from on high, yes ministering angels are standing ready to bring to pass all things that have been promised through My Word. I Am the watcher over My Word to manifest it in your life. Put your hope, trust, and confidence in Me. I will not fail to do what I have spoken. I Am the Lord who sees and provide. Remember that you also sit with Me in heavenly places above all of the things of earth. I have given you eagle eyes, you see it before it manifests. You have been given all authority over all the power of the enemy, you are the ambassadors on earth. I have given to you everything that pertains to life and godliness, which means you are always the victor, Come on My children, you can do this you are made in My image and filled with all My glory. You have angel help, Holy Spirit assistance, My Word, which is the Father and I. You got this. Get back up and run this race, placing one strong stride in front of the other. 

“Why are you cast down, O my inner self? And why should you moan over me and be disquieted within me? Hope in God and wait expectantly for Him, for I shall yet praise Him, my Help and my God” (Psalms 42:5)

“Wait and hope for and expect the Lord; be brave and of good courage and let your heart be stout and enduring. Yes, wait for and hope for and expect the Lord.” (Psalm 27:14)

“For His divine power has bestowed on us [absolutely] everything necessary for [a dynamic spiritual] life and godliness, through true and personal knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence.” (2 Peter 1:3)

I know that you have been standing in the gap for your brothers and sisters. That is why, as you pray for others to be healed, healing comes to you as well, not just in your physical body, but in your mind. The place where the enemy desires to fight and war against you, I will cause the supernatural peace to blanket your mind, so that you can begin to think on Me in the darkest stand. For as you think on Me, great peace will overwhelm you.  It does not matter what you are going through, because My great peace will be upon you. I said, even if you walk through the valley of the shadow of death, fear no evil, for I Am with you. You are never alone. There is nothing too hard, too difficult, nothing too deep or too devastating that I can not fix, repair, or heal.  For I Am your Father, one who loves you deeply and intensely. There is no one who loves you like I do. I have seen and knew you before you were born, before your mother knew you I was giving you your uniqueness, fashioning you to be the only one exactly like you.  I knew you in an intimate way as only I could. I have walked with you as you have come into this world with a divine destiny.  I Am not through with what I have purposed you to do. I  Am still working and performing that good work in you to will and to do of My good pleasure. So allow Me to keep molding, shaping,  I Am removing the imperfections from  intermingling with this world.  I know how to perfect everything concerning you, so rest in Me. No matter what comes, rest in Me, I Am leading you to a place of rest where nothing can shake you.

“My frame was not hidden from You when I was being formed in secret [and] intricately and curiously wrought [as if embroidered with various colors] in the depths of the earth [a region of darkness and mystery].” (Psalm 139:15)

“Yes, though I walk through the [deep, sunless] valley of the shadow of death, I will fear or dread no evil, for You are with me; Your rod [to protect] and Your staff [to guide], they comfort me.” (Psalm 23:4)

“[Not in your own strength] for it is God Who is all the while effectually at work in you [energizing and creating in you the power and desire], both to will and to work for His good pleasure and satisfaction and delight.” (Philippians 2:13)

Good morning,

Words are powerful. Words are containers of power. The songs that you sing are also containers of power, opening up the heavenly realms that you might see what goes on in the heavenly sphere, where you will one day live and dwell, opening your eyes to the reality of what is going on around you. Elders, creatures bow, constantly praising and giving Me glory, understanding that is what you are to do here right now on Earth. Continue giving Me honor, glory, power, might, dominion and majesty. And as you do I cause you to stand up with power and authority to be the one who carry the container of words that I have invested on the inside of you, so that by My words that are rooted in you, you can change the atmosphere. You can be the one that comes in the midst of a chaotic situation and peace comes because you are the container of peace. You could be the one in the midst of sickness and disease and walk in the middle of a hospital and the healing that I have invested in you by My word flows from you without a word being spoken, because you are container of the word on wholeness. And as you go forth through life, understand the power of the words that you speak, how they are affecting everything in your atmosphere. You on purpose pick and choose your words, for they are giving life or death in the atmosphere.  Understand what I have placed in you is all of Me. I have held nothing back from you. I have put within you My word. The more time you spend in My word, the more word comes from the inside of you, and you become an overflowing container and at the moment that I command you to release, you release the container that is filled with My  healing, delivering Word. So continue being filled to overflowing. This is what I keep saying to My prophets, teachers, evangelists, apostles , and pastors those who are called by Me, every one of My children.  And I have a few that have not given their soul to the enemy that have not sold their soul for money, profit or fame. They are faithful to Me and faithful to My Word. And as you stand in My Word and confess My word, understand that I will do exactly what you are saying. So hold fast to your confession. Hold fast to the words that come forth from your mouth that they you are filled with. I will keep My Word and promise to you. There is not one thing that will fall to the earth, that will not produce. If you continue to be a container, filling yourself with My Word.

“So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.” (Romans 10:17)

“That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.” (Ephesians 5:26-27)

“Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee: and the light shall shine upon thy ways.” (Job 22:28)

When the enemy of your soul comes against you in a fight, recognize this one thing, he shall flee before you seven ways. For I say that every promise that I have made to you is a yes and amen. I Am fulfilling all of My Word. I Am not like man, there is no lying within My lips, what I speak to you it is a yes and an amen, and you can count on Me to do it. So when the enemy comes, do not shake in your fear. In fact, turn around and tell him what your Father has already done, let him know what I Am capable and able of doing and what I will always do for My own. I take care of My own. You are My children, My very own, My beloved, and I will take care of you. There is nothing that can come against you that I cannot cause to scatter into so many directions, and cause to lose its power. I say to you that no matter what goes on in your life, as you continue to encourage yourself, I will strengthen you, I will build you up. I will cause you to see things in the spirit realm that you never saw before. You will see things working out for your good, to cause you to stand no matter what is coming against you. So now know that I Am strengthening you. You are not as weak as the enemies lies tell you that you are, stand still and you will see the salvation of your God. I Am faithful to watch over My word to perform it on your behalf, and I Am doing it even now.  

     There is not one jot not one tittle of My Word that will ever pass away, I will do what I said I would do. My promises are sure as the foundation of this earth, even though things may crumble and shatter around about you, I and My Word still stand. So My Word stands with you, and so I Am seeing to you right now, as a good Father does, I will not let you fail. I will not let you down. I will cause you to lift your head up in the midst of the enemy lies and see triumph and victory at every turn because I Am Jehovah Jireh I see ahead and provide. I go before you and behind you, and I surround you with all victory. So count it joy! Give Me glory and praise right in the midst of wherever you are standing in now, knowing that I Am causing your enemy to scatter and to flee before your eyes. That is what I do, that is who I Am, a good Father. I Am the faithful Father, and you can depend on Me.

     “Fear not [there is nothing to fear], for I am with you; do not look around you in terror and be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen and harden you to difficulties, yes, I will help you; yes, I will hold you up and retain you with My [victorious] right hand of rightness and justice.” (Isaiah 41:10)

     “For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.” (2 Corinthians 1:20)

     “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)

Good morning,

This is where the deep touches the deep and it reaches to a place unknown to your physical mind, unknown to your physical heart.  That is the place where the power of your Father meets with the power of your spirit and you begin to recognize that you are most powerful, that you are not this powerless being that has no power but you begin to recognize that I have given you everything that pertains to life and godliness. You become just like Me and the divine nature of your Father, and in that place says the Lord, I respond to you as a loving Father, a Father who loves His own, chastises His own.  For what kind of father would I be if I allowed My children to stay childish, if I allowed My children to stay babies, working in their flesh and in their mind, operating by their natural means, not growing up, not maturing into the divine person that I have called you to. I have raised you to walk not by your flesh, not by your feelings, not by your thought life, but by My Word.  You must be those who have their senses trained and are mature, strong enough to endure the meat of My Word because they take My word and apply to every circumstance and situation and make their flesh obey.  Yes, I said make; for in order to do My Word you have to make yourself do it, and so as you are laborers with Me, come to Me says the spirit of grace and mercy and I work alongside with you.  There is nothing, no nothing that is impossible to you if you believe.  There is no change that is insurmountable to you, believer.  We can do it together says the Lord, and I command you to do if you love Me.  I command you to walk with Me,  I command you to love Me so much that you obey Me, that is My Word.  I say to you My children, if you would desire to grow up, grow up to the place, to all the wonders that I have to reveal to you, secret things, divine mysteries that I want you to walk in.  You could be walking in them even now says the Lord, for it is high time that My children stop being babies and grow up to be strong, and endure the sound doctrine of your Father.  Know that I Am causing you to inherit the promises that I have given you.  Promises that are laid up for those who are mature, for I cannot give to babies the responsibilities of the mature revelation, but I can entrust those to strong and mature people who are ready, yes ready.  Every time you receive a word and you allow your flesh to continue to rule you, you are still yet babies and I require you to grow up says the Lord.  It is the longing of My heart to see my full manifestation working in and through My people causing them to be the end time army that I have designed and required for them to be.  This is your season, this is the time to shed that skin of babyhood, now is the time, this is the season to rise up and to mature says the Lord.  You can do it, for I have given you everything that pertains to life and being like God, it is in you, it is your divine nature.  I have put Me inside of you, you are just like Me, so start acting like it, start being like it. I require that of you My children, for I have given you the Word, I have given you the milk, I have given you the meat of the word so that you might grow up, so that you might endure in the days that are ahead.  For have I not said, it is My sons who endure chastening from their Father?  For I am a loving Father, a kind Father, a generous Father but I also chastise those I love.  What kind of Father would I be if I allowed you to stay in your mess and in your sin.  I require you to grow up and mature and shake off the skin of this world, shake off the worldliness that you have been hiding under.  I require it says the Lord, so grow up this day, make up in your heart and mind, and you will see that there are more that be for you than be against you.  All of the power I have invested in you, is so that you might succeed and walk boldly through this world, letting this world know that there is a God and He lives in you, and He works in you.  They can see Me as I come forth from your life says the Spirit of grace and mercy.  You have the power, you can do it says the Lord.

“That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ.” (Eph. 4:14-15)

“For though by this time you ought to be teachers [because of the time you have had to learn these truths], you actually need someone to teach you again the elementary principles of God’s word [from the beginning], and you have come to be continually in need of milk, not solid food.  For everyone who lives on milk is [doctrinally inexperienced and] unskilled in the word of righteousness, since he is a spiritual infant.  But solid food is for the [spiritually] mature, whose senses are trained by practice to distinguish between what is morally good and what is evil.” (Heb. 5:12-14)

  “My son, do not make light of the discipline of the Lord, And do not lose heart and give up when you are corrected by Him; For the Lord disciplines and corrects those whom He loves, And He punishes every son whom He receives and welcomes [to His heart].” You must submit to [correction for the purpose of] discipline; God is dealing with you as with sons; for ] what son is there whom his father does not discipline?  Now if you are exempt from correction and without discipline, in which all [of God’s children] share, then you are illegitimate children and not sons [at all]. (Heb. 12:5-8)

Good morning,

If you would begin to take every step that I have given you, these steps will cause you to reach a place in Me that you thought was impossible to do. But because you surrender your will, your designs, your plans, the things you thought were your deliverance, I will crucify them before your very eyes and raise Myself up mighty in your eyes.  This crucifying of other gods will cause you to be lifted up to a place that you trust and depend upon Me. This generation of My children will rise up and begin to declare My Word by their lives, by their very lives being lived out, a testimony for men to see. As your lives are lived out before them, they will see the glory of God living and abiding in you as you go forth being filled to overflow of My presence. You will cause men and women to be healed from the very shadow of your presence as you yield yourself more and more to Me. For this is the generation that I have raised up to declare and sound the trumpet to alarm My people.  My people, will hear Me and obey and be quick to obey. For Our time has come to receive My bride. It is sooner than you think and I want her prepared and ready. So now hear My voice, hear the sound of the trumpet as I Am sounds the alarm. So do not go back to the trough, do not go back to the vomit, do not go back to the old lovers, things that the enemy is trying to pull you back to. Rise up above those things, because I placed on the inside of you all that makes Me, Me. It is in you so now you can rise up. You can do the impossible, because of the possibility that lies in Me. You will radiate My glory and power. We are in harmony, Holy Spirit has been fine tuning you. Know that We will do the impossible in the hours ahead. We includes you My bride!

“And I will make you my bride forever. I will make you my bride with goodness and justice and with love and mercy.” (Hosea 2:19-20)

“Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is.” (Ephesians 5:15-17)

“that he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, that he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.” (Ephesians 5:26-27)

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)

Good morning,

I am reminded of a story about a young boy who found a cocoon, and seeing how hard the insect struggled on the inside, he cut the cocoon open, thinking he would help the bug escape.  Instead, the butterfly died.  A butterfly expert told him that it is the struggle within the cocoon that gives strength to the butterfly and enables its wings to grow and develop.  Only then can it emerge and go free.

If God cares so much for butterflies, to give them a covering while they transition, I know He covers us as we change or even as we are going through tough or trying times. Is. 41:10 says, “Fear not, (there is nothing to fear), for I Am with you; do not look around you in terror and be dismayed, for I Am your God, I will strenghten and harden you to difficulties, yes, I will help you; yes, I will hold you up and retain you with My victorious right hand of rightness and justice.”  This “hardening” us to difficulty, is also where we receive strength to come forth from our God-given cocoon.  Harden means to make tough, to strengthen or confirm in disposition, feeling or a course of action, to make bold.  You see we become tougher and stronger to outer circumstances and easily pliable to inner change.  He will harden us to difficulties emotionally, spiritually, and physically.  

This is the Word of the Lord; “I know the thoughts and plans that I have for you, says the Lord,  thoughts and plans for welfare and peace and not for evil, to give you hope in your final outcome.” Do not be shaken or moved by the outward circumstances that have come to test and try you, I have allowed them so that you might see what We are doing on the inside. I Am shifting how you think, and what you are preoccupied with thinking. All of the cares of this life are temporal and I need you to keep eternal vision. The futility of the race of this world will overwhelm your thought life if you let it which pushes out “keeping your mind stayed on Me.” I need you to meditate and ponder on My Word and My promises to you consistently. You know that Our enemy’s purpose is to take your mind off of Me and My Word down a tunnel of hopelessness and despair. I Am greater than all of the scenarios of your wearied thoughts. Know this, I have overcome the world and I have given you the keys to open up the door and walk as an overcome in every area of life. Be prepared always to wage war against the enemy. But what I have given, I have given! Stand and take your position, as you do you will see the salvation of your Father.

“But take heed to yourselves and be on your guard, lest your hearts be overburdened and depressed (weighed down) with the giddiness and headache and nausea of self-indulgence, drunkenness, and worldly worries and cares pertaining to [the business of] this life, and [lest] that day come upon you suddenly like a trap or a noose;” (Luke 21:34)

“You will guard him and keep him in perfect and constant peace whose mind [both its inclination and its character] is stayed on You, because he commits himself to You, leans on You, and hopes confidently in You.” (Isaiah 26:3)

“You are a hiding place for me; You, Lord, preserve me from trouble, You surround me with songs and shouts of deliverance. Selah [pause, and calmly think of that]!” (Psalm 32:7)

Good morning,

  I share in the victory and triumph with My people.  All of those who sow in tears shall reap in joy. It is not how you start, it is how you end up and because you keep your eyes stayed on Me, whatever I have you will have. I Am seated at the right hand of My Father, and so shall you be, because you are fighting the good fight of faith. Look up, because your redemption draws nigh. The more that you press in, the more you cry out, the more you hunger and thirst for Me the more you become full of Me. I beckon to your call, and I Am coming closer and closer every time you call with the fragrance of your voice. No man knows the hour, but the time and the season are at hand, because My children are crying out for Me.  They are asking for Me to come for they desire to be with Me. My bride is longing for My arrival and I cannot contain nor keep back from My love. 

The time is coming when I will not keep back or hold off. There will be no one who will be able to say that they did not hear that they did not know, because I Am firing up My people to run like never before, clean, purify and purge as many souls as they can before I come and receive My people home and they will ever be with Me. So rejoice, your time is upon you now says the Lord.

“Those who sow in tears shall reap in joy. He who continually goes forth weeping, bearing seed for sowing, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing bringing his sheaves with him,” (Psalms 126:5-6)

“Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled.” (Matthew 5:6)

“And the Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let him who hears say, “Come!” And let him who thirsts come. Whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely.” (Revelation 22:17)

Good morning,

Your praise is a weapon, and it surrounds you. You are surrounding yourself with My glory, so that everywhere you go My glory goes before and behind you.   There is no weapon that is formed by man or the enemy that can penetrate the glory of your King. All deep things happen in My glory. You open your eyes and you see and you understand what was once shrouded. You open your ears you hear and you understand. It all happens in My glory.  So let your voice be a weapon as you praise Me, let your voice be a sound to the enemy that you are not afraid as I surround you with My glory. There is nothing that he could do that could ever penetrate you to the point of killing you or taking you out, for I surround you by My glory. The power shall begin to arise and it will rise like a river. A river that will not quit flowing, a river that will flow on and will bring to you healing, soundness, wellness, wisdom, insight and, revelation into all things. As you live in My river that is created by the glory that you create with your sound with the voice that you send out as a praise, as a mighty weapon, you will deepen your revelation of Abba. For I use the foolish things to confound the wisdom of this world, to confound the wisdom of the enemy. So praise Me let me hear your voice, let Me hear your sound.

“For Sheol (the place of the dead) cannot confess and reach out the hand to You, death cannot praise and rejoice in You; they who go down to the pit cannot hope for Your faithfulness [to Your promises; their probation is at an end, their destiny is sealed]. The living, the living—they shall thank and praise You, as I do this day; the father shall make known to the children Your faithfulness and Your truth.” (Isaiah: 38-18-19) 

“But truly as I live and as all the earth shall be filled with the glory of the Lord,” (Numbers 14:21)

“There is a river whose streams shall make glad the city of God, The holy place of the tabernacle of the Most High” (Psalm 46:4)
