There are eagles that are about to soar in great flight.  They have streamlined their lives and allowed Me, their Lord to shave away the weights that have kept them grounded in the past.  Weaning them from all that they thought was their source and their necessity.  They have truly discovered I Am their one and only source.  Watch the eagles, climb higher into My presence. They will not settle for the commonplace.  Every step of faith has brought them closer to the clouds of My glory.  The eagles will experience the great torrential rains that I have promised in My Word.  The rains are coming to refresh and blow away all that is stagnant, clearing away all that obscured their vision.  My eagles will create a refreshing wind, for they will carry My anointing and drip it on all who have been waiting for more of Me.  This will increase the desire for all the eaglets in My Kingdom to produce a fresh wind of glory in their environment.  All of My children will desire to grow up and take their place in the army of their God.  Holiness and maturity will be their aim and their goal.  All of those who love Me will seek me again as they did at first.  This fresh wind will start fires, fires will begin to glow. The wind and the fires will cause a dynamic outburst of the Spirit.

New levels of My Spirit producing new levels of My glory.  My people will now walk in sustained levels of power and authority.  This will be the greatest time ever known to My people.  Healings that will encompass spirit, soul and body will be seen as evidence of My favor.  My eagles will be at the forefront of this great time of My manifested glory and healings, yet humility will fan the flame for greater manifestations.  Those who have developed their wings have done so through great seasons of endurance.  I know the many times that they have laid down their own desires to see that Mine would be done.  Such an awakening of my eagles will cause My watchmen to become more alert. Their times of intercession will be fanned by the fires of purpose and their eyes will see with great distinction.  My shepherds will be quickened by the rushing of the wind of my eagles.  The meals that they feed my people will be served with truth and in power.  They will be revived by the same wind, feeding My people with fresh manna.  My people will go throughout their territory bringing restoration to their land.  Rebuilding all that has laid in ruins because of the devastation of the past generations and of the present troubling to their lands.  They will not be distracted any longer by the lies of the enemy.  They will work diligently on one hand while warring for the Kingdom with the other.  This wind of the Spirit will cause supernatural waves of energy, they will never grow weary as they march right on to the new level.  All that they have gone through has been preparation for this time.  The set time for My eagles has come!   My favor will be your great reward.

So I say to you, stir yourself up once again to loving Me.  Revive the fires of your prayer life, ignite your quiet times in My Word, where you learned to hear My voice. Speak life to your times of worship, and you will be transported into My Presence.  Refuse to stop running, and you will see that you be like
a watered garden and an ever-flowing spring.  You will be raised up on high to soar once again as a renewed eagle!

“Who satisfies your years with good things, So that your youth is renewed like the [soaring] eagle” (Psalm 103:5)

“And the Lord will continually guide you, And satisfy your soul in scorched and dry places, And give strength to your bones; And you will be like a watered garden , And your people will rebuild the ancient ruins; You will raise up and restore the age-old foundations [of buildings that have been laid waste]; You will be called Repairer of the Breach, Restorer of Streets with Dwellings.” (Isaiah 58:11-12)

Good morning, 

I Am opening up glory realms so that you might walk closer to Me than ever. You will hear My voice very clearly. You will see what I Am saying very simply, and you will walk in boldness. For this is the time that My sons and daughters shall rise, and they will walk in holiness, and they will walk in the fear of their Father, and begin to demonstrate to the world how great their Father is. Men and women will know that I Am a mighty delivering Savior. My people went out with My glory, signs and wonders followed them with demonstrations of My power, walking in holiness, with demonstrations of all that I Am. Men will know that you that you have talked With Me, and that you have been in My presence. For My presence will begin to flow over your body like a shield. It will be like a cloud of glory that you are walking under. My power will emanate from you and signs and wonders will follow you. This is the season of My children living under My umbrella of glory. This is the season of the anointed ones. The harvest will be plentiful as many will be saved as they are snatched from the fire in this season. At the same time, many that have been complacent in my house will grow colder.

I have anointed you for this time. I have appointed you for this time. This is your destiny. This is your purpose. This is the reason you were born in this time and this season. So rise up knowing that I have anointed you and appointed you. My hand lays heavy upon you, and so does My cloud of glory. So go forth now in the mighty power of your Father, knowing that no weapon formed against you shall prosper. This is the days of the glory of your Father. This is the days of the Anointed One. Go forth in great humbleness and power, and I will show you who I Am. Every day you will know Me more intimately. This is the opening of the revelation portals and realms of glory for you, portals and realms and glory for you! Our finest hour is here.

“No weapon that is formed against you will succeed, and every tongue that rises against you in judgment you will condemn…” (Isaiah 54:17)

“And these attesting signs will accompany those who believe: in My name, they will drive out demons; they will speak in new languages; they will pick up serpents: and even if they drink anything deadly, it will not hurt them; they will lay their hands on the sick and they shall get well.” (Mark 16:17-18)

“Arise [from the depression and prostration in which circumstances have kept you—rise to a new life]! Shine (be radiant with the glory of the Lord), for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you!  For behold, darkness shall cover the earth, and dense darkness [all] peoples, but the Lord shall arise upon you [O Jerusalem], and His glory shall be seen on you. And nations shall come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising.” (Isaiah 60:1-3)

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)

In My House, there is coming a necessary change, for a while, there has been indifference towards My Word. 

 
Good morning,
 
    In My House, there is coming a necessary change, for a while, there has been indifference towards My Word.  I have heard the cries of My children for holiness and purity to flood My House.  Conversion will happen in My House, it will come from longing hearts.  Many have fallen into spiritual apathy in My House and I do see and recognize, that it is because they have put their eyes and their faith in their spiritual leaders.  Yet, I have said in My Word to follow those who follow Christ.  This is the time that My holy remnant will arise and shake this world for a great awakening to Me and My Word.  A fresh new zeal will blow in My House for those who have withstood the pleas of this false church to have an adulterous relationship with it.  Zeal to speak My truth, zeal to seek and save the lost, zeal to stand against the false gods of this world's system.  I Am awakening the last day anointing upon the remnants of My prophets, teachers, apostles, pastors, and evangelists.  For I have some who have not bowed to the god of this world's system and the evil that has darkened the gaze of the eyes of many that once ran true for Me.  It is not how you start the race, but how you finish the course.  The spirit that antagonizes My end-time warriors has been crippled by them.  Fear will no longer keep them from rising up and declaring truth, my righteous ones are bolder. 
 
    All that will come in the Kingdom at this time will no longer play the harlot.  All the other lovers will begin to abandon them, and loyalty to Me will be paramount in their hearts.  As the world of darkness goes into a spiral of wickedness, that has spun its tail into My House, My warriors will come forth unashamedly to defend My truth.  I will anoint them at this time to do amazing things that will cause many who see to leave their gods and turn to Me, the One and only true God.  Households that have been in crooked disrepair will be touched by one who will walk in the fullness of My Word.  Churches that were on the brink of disaster, only because men would rather believe a lie rather than truth, will see that I have not forgotten their faithfulness to Me.  I will visit them afresh and anew and revivals will begin to burst forth like fire in a dry and desert land.  They have kept the flames burning even in the midst of great persecution.  I will start in the small places, to make My name known among men once again, and they will know that it was not by their power, or their might, or their wisdom, that all glory and honor will belong to Me.  
 
    I, the Lord, once again Am walking through the House where I Am truly honored and revered.  Look and see, I Am still working My Word in the midst of all who believe and obey Me!  I will be honored in My House!  Many other houses that still bear My name will begin to self-destruct because of the deception that flows from the lips of men, whom they have revered more than Me.  Many have made an addendum to My Word and placed clauses and changed My Word to accommodate their sins.  These places will become more obvious that they stand for nothing, places where many have slid back from their once-great love for Me.  Now, because they have beguiled and led astray many by enticing words of men's wisdom, many souls have left their first love and sold their birthright for a porridge of flesh.  I stand and shout to them, come back now, while the way is still available!  For you My faithful remnant, stay ready for the help I Am sending to you now! 
 
    "My people have been lost sheep; their shepherds have led them astray [to favorite places of idolatry] on mountains [that seduce].  They have gone from [one sin to another] mountain to hill; they have forgotten their [own] resting-place." (Jer. 50:6)
    
    "Woe to the shepherds (the civil leaders) who destroy and scatter the sheep of My pasturing! says the Lord." (Jer. 23:1)
    
    "And [pray] also for me, that [freedom of] utterance may be given me, that I may open my mouth to proclaim boldly the mystery of the good news (the Gospel), For which I am an ambassador in a coupling chain [in prison. Pray] that I may declare it boldly and courageously, as I ought to do." (Ephes. 6:19-20)
 
    "For truly I tell you, until the sky and earth pass away and perish, not one smallest letter nor one little hook [identifying certain Hebrew letters] will pass from the Law until all things [it foreshadows] are accomplished.  Whoever then breaks or does away with or relaxes one of the least [important] of these commandments and teaches men so shall be called least [important] in the kingdom of heaven, but he who practices them and teaches others to do so shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven." (Matt. 5:18-19)

 It is most important to pursue holiness this year and fight to stay in the love of God with believers.


Good morning,
 
    It is most important to pursue holiness this year and fight to stay in the love of God with believers. This will require you staying in My Word, know that the enemy desires to weave a root of bitterness.  You must exercise the wisdom that comes only from My Word.  So, if you do not make time to nurture the love that I placed in your heart by Holy Spirit, you will exhaust your natural fill of love.  My love will lift you up above the natural limitations.  Patiently loving will be tested, you must not allow My love to grow cold.  
    Ask and inquire of Me about major decisions for this year.  Acknowledge Me in all of your ways and then I will direct your steps.  This is a choice that each one must make on their own, I never push your will.  I encourage you to yield your will.  Know this, that for all who will yield their members to obey, they will be in a season when the plowman shall overtake the reaper, and the planter overtaken by the one reaping.  There will be a quick harvest of seeds sown, both good and bad.  You will not need to wonder about the harvest, it will be a year of rapid return.  A time of multiple harvests, good or bad, take notice of the seeds that you are planting. 
    I Am healing hearts that have been wounded by deep hurts this year.  Your past hurts will be minor compared to the deep healing to occur.  I Am applying My balm to years of tender wounds and bruises that you have carried.  Some that have been the reason that you have not responded to My love as you should have.  I was there when you were abused, misused, discarded, rejected, and felt alone.  I Am the One who will deliver you into a safe haven.  Here is where no weapon or tongue shall rise against you to destroy or bring you despair.  Knowing Me, truly knowing Me will bring security, healing and wholeness, this is what I made you to enjoy.  Living life in the heavenlies, where you are called to come and take your seat.  Here, you can see what I see, that I have made your enemy your footstool.  That you are the one that hold all the authority.  Know that I have placed the power to live a power filled and purpose filled life.  This year, we will shine.  I have allowed the past year of shadow living, in order to turn up the light in all who would live holy for Me.
    I have been a provider, protector and a healer of My children.  All I have ever required is that My children live and walk in humility with Me as they pursue righteousness.  Keep a fire burning for Me with hunger and thirst.  As you Father, I want you to come closer and know My heart towards you.  You are the center of all I do and keep doing.  I have given you My love to love Me completely.
 
    "Therefore, since we have these [great and wonderful] promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit, completing holiness [living a consecrated life—a life set apart for God’s purpose] in the fear of God." (2 Corin. 7:1)    
 
    "He has told you, O man, what is good; And what does the Lord require of you Except to be just, and to love [and to diligently practice] kindness (compassion), And to walk humbly with your God [setting aside any overblown sense of importance or self-righteousness]?" (Micah 6:8)
 
    "Trust in and rely confidently on the Lord with all your heart, And do not rely on your own insight or understanding.  In all your ways know and acknowledge and recognize Him, And He will make your paths straight and smooth [removing obstacles that block your way]." (Pro. 3:5-6)
Love,
 
Pastor D.

 Good Morning,

     "God has called us to live holy lives, not impure lives.  Therefore, anyone who refuses to live by these rules is not disobeying human teaching, but has rejected God, who gives His Holy Spirit to you." (I Thess. 4:7-8) Holy Spirit leads and guide us into holiness.  I like the end of this verse in the Amplified Bible, it says, "Therefore whoever disregards (sets aside and rejects this) disregards not man but God, Whose [very] Spirit [Whom] He gives to you is holy (chaste, pure).  Holy Spirit is holy, pure and chaste, He will guide us into all things that are holy also. (John 14:26) We are changing how we think by renewing our mind, in order to live holy.  "Because we have these promises, dear friends, let us cleanse ourselves from everything that can defile our body and spirit.  And let us work toward complete holiness because we fear God." (II Corin. 7:1) We know that our thoughts are one of the strongest contaminate to our body and spirit.  Mtt. 15:18-19; "But whatever comes out of the mouth comes from the heart, and this is what makes a man unclean and defiles (him).  For out of the heart come evil thoughts (reasonings and disputings and designs) such as murder, adultery, sexual vice, theft, false witnessing, slander, and irreverent speech."  "[Inasmuch as we] refute arguments and theories and reasonings and every proud and lofty thing that sets itself up against the [true] knowledge of God; and we lead every thought and purpose away captive into the obedience of Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One)." (II Corin. 10:5)  Evil thoughts defile us and make us unholy and affect our conducts and behavior.  So we must have a clean and undefiled heart which is the seat of our thoughts, emotions and intellect.  "Everything is pure to those whose hearts are pure."  Change your thoughts and you change your behavior, conduct and course of life. "But nothing is pure (undefiled) to those who are corrupt and unbelieving because their minds and consciences (their thought life) are corrupted.  Such people claim they know God, but they deny Him by the way they live. (their conduct, behavior, manners and lifestyle) They are detestable, worthless for anything good. (Titus 1:15-16)

     We are to be working towards changing our old behavior and conduct into God's holy character.  Work means activity where one exerts strength or faculties, to do or perform.  A sustained physical or mental effort valued as it overcomes obstacles and achieves an objection or result.  We must overcome the obstacles of the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes and the pride of life to achieve the result of holiness.  Holiness is achieved by grace with our effort of self control as we renew our mind we strengthen ourselves to do the Word as our lifestyle.  It is not perfection but commitment to the pursuit of holiness.  We have grace (the divine influence upon the heart and its reflection in life; God's ability over our inability).  Holy Spirit comes alongside as our helper and assisting us to accomplish the task.  Holiness should be reflecting in our every day lives.  We have SUPER – natural help.  There is nothing impossible for us who believe, let's stay committed to pursuing holiness.

"Everything is pure to those whose hearts are pure."
