There are things in your life that I Am about to cause to fall into place.  Some were slightly out of order, others were totally crooked. 

Break-down-your-barriers
 
Good morning,
 
    There are things in your life that I Am about to cause to fall into place.  Some were slightly out of order, others were totally crooked.  I Am releasing into your life new strategies to help you overcome.  What may look like "failure and the end" is only a door opening to new plans to shift you into your large place.  This will be a time of acceleration in those areas where it seemed that the "spiritual vultures" were circling.  The old strategies and tactics that you tried to follow, because they worked for someone else, yet they never worked for you, have finally been released from your heart and hands.  You have cried out to Me, and better still, you waited on Me to reveal to you My steps for you.  Now
stay in the position of having your neck stretched out in anticipation of the surprises and tokens that I have for My obedient ones.  Breakthrough, advancement, and improvements will arise in every area of your life that you have yielded to Me.  Many of My people will be loosed from conditions where they have been held captive in their lives.  Conditions where you may have sensed that you have lost your purpose and your call, here I will renew your joy of serving and loving Me.  I will amplify your sensitivity to My gifts.  You will begin to operate from a high place of the Spirit in your day-to-day lives, for you are My temple.  As you yield daily to the gifts, you will hear Me lead you in the way that you should go.  Opportunities will be easily attainable and the limits have been lifted that kept you bound, for you have been found faithful.  Barriers that kept you from stepping over into the territory that I have already given you, will be blown over.  Listen, for I will speak in the night seasons as well as when you walk by the way through dreams, visions, and by the light of My Word.
    
    All of these precious promises I will do for you because you have obeyed My voice and did not choose your own way over Mine.  I Am promoting in-House as well as in the market places, all that have sought after Me in a dry and weary place.  Those who have pressed after the Kingdom, when others ran to the world, because of tests, trials, and tribulations.  I Am always rewarding the faithful and those who endure in Me.  Shame shall be the promotion of fools, those who do not choose obedience.  Most of all, you will be revived in your relationship with Me.  Arise My love, and take part in the fragrance of your Lover.  I Am dropping to you sweet dew from heaven to refresh you for the days ahead.  As all things begin to fall in place, remember I have given you beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness.  Through you, I Am building up the ruined places and raising up the places of devastation, so that I may be glorified and that you may be known as My minister of righteousness.
 
    "Nevertheless, God was not well-pleased with most of them, for they were scattered along the ground in the wilderness [because their lack of self-control led to disobedience which led to death]. Now these things [the warnings and admonitions] took place as examples for us, so that we would not crave evil things as they did." (1 Corin. 10:5-6)
 
    "As an example, brothers and sisters, of suffering and patience, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord [as His messengers and representatives]. You know we call those blessed [happy, spiritually prosperous, favored by God] who were steadfast and endured [difficult circumstances]. You have heard of the patient endurance of Job and you have seen the Lord’s outcome [how He richly blessed Job]. The Lord is full of compassion and is merciful." (James 5:10-11)
 
    "To grant [consolation and joy] to those who mourn in Zion—to give them an ornament (a garland or diadem) of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, the garment [expressive] of praise instead of a heavy, burdened, and failing spirit—that they may be called oaks of righteousness [lofty, strong, and magnificent, distinguished for uprightness, justice, and right standing with God], the planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified. And they shall rebuild the ancient ruins; they shall raise up the former desolations and renew the ruined cities, the devastations of many generations." (Isaiah 61:3-4)

Good morning,

     "To grant [consolation and joy] to those who mourn in Zion—to give them an ornament (a garland or diadem) of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, the garment [expressive] of praise instead of a heavy, burdened, and failing spirit—that they may be called oaks of righteousness [lofty, strong, and magnificent, distinguished for uprightness, justice, and right standing with God], the planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified" (Is. 61:3)
 
     "My brothers and sisters, take the prophets as your mentors. They have prophesied in the name of the Lord and it brought them great sufferings, yet they patiently endured.  We honor them as our heroes because they remained faithful even while enduring great sufferings.  And you have heard of all that Job went through and we can now see that the Lord ultimately treated him with wonderful kindness, revealing how tenderhearted he really is." (James 5:10-11)

 
     "They all ate the same heavenly manna and drank water from the same spiritual rock that traveled with them—and that Rock was Christ himself.  Yet God was not pleased with most of them, and their dead bodies were scattered around the wilderness.  Now, all these things serve as types and pictures for us—lessons that teach us not to fail in the same way by callously craving worthless things." (1 Corin. 10:3-6)

 I Am not a waster or a destroyer, I fulfill and complete everything that I start.  I will fulfill in the lives of My children all that I have promised, and all that you have stood and believed for. 

 
 
Good morning,
 
     I Am not a waster or a destroyer, I fulfill and complete everything that I start.  I will fulfill in the lives of My children all that I have promised, and all that you have stood and believed for.  This past year will be used as a launching pad for the most powerful encounters, and the greatest advancements for your present and future.  Those things that you thought were failures and missed opportunities will be used to turn the crooked places straight.  The bronze and iron will be made pliable to you.  In order for you to hear Me this season, you must make a practice of being still.  The busyness of living will try to preoccupy your mind and your thoughts, making it hard for you to hear directions and instructions.  You must choose to be still and know.  For many of you I will speak divine secrets and council in the night season, so listen intently, for I will speak as you are walking by the wayside.  I desire your attention, so that you may be above only and not behind.  My purpose is to cause this world to seek out those who have inside information, so that some may come to know Me as Lord.  I will announce to My obedient ones deep wisdom that is known only in the Kingdom.  Searchers and seekers of My ways will find this "well of wisdom" that has always been available to the diligent.  This will lead you out and bring you into the promised place.  My children will not only be preserved but you will advance in a time when the world is failing.  It will depend on your devotion to hearing Me, stop all activities that demand your undivided attention and give it to Me.  Many people will run here and there, seeking for wisdom, and only the wise in Me will truly understand and discern the times and the season. They have learned Me, by sitting daily in My chambers, becoming familiar to My voice, a stranger's voice no longer hold their attention.  These are the ones who will fulfill their purpose and My design for their lives.
 
     "Look carefully then how you walk!  Live purposefully and worthily and accurately, not as the unwise and witless, but as wise (sensible, intelligent people), Making the very most of the time [buying up each opportunity], because the days are evil.  Therefore do not be vague and thoughtless and foolish, but understanding and firmly grasping what the will of the Lord is." (Ephes. 5:15-17)
     "Through skillful and godly Wisdom is a house (a life, a home, a family) built, and by understanding it is established [on a sound and good foundation], And by knowledge shall its chambers [of every area] be filled with all precious and pleasant riches.  A wise man is strong and is better than a strong man, and a man of and strengthens his power; a wise man is strong and is better than a strong man, and a man of knowledge increases and strengthens his power." (Pro. 24:3-5)
     "I will go before you and level the mountains [to make the crooked places straight]; I will break in pieces the doors of bronze and cut asunder the bars of iron." (Is. 45:2)
