November 7, 2025 – Ears to Hear/Hearts to Obey

Good morning,

Timing is nigh at hand, and it is so critical for My people to rise up and declare what I have spoken to them. The words that I have put in their heart, the things that I have prepared for them to do before they were ever known. This is their time to walk with Me, to declare what I have spoken to them, to devotedly live for Me.  Allowing the world to see how it is that they have overcome and are submitted to the Kingdom of the living God. Many will become convicted, convicted of their own sin, convicted of their own hardness of heart, convicted of the things that hold them back from surrendering their lives to Me. They will come to the Kingdom because of your holy committed  lifestyle and because of the words you speak and declare of the Kingdom. So do not be afraid of the enemy. This is the time to shine forth and declare, for lives are held in the balance, waiting for the sons of God to appear on the scene and declare what My living Word declares.  Will you be that people? Will you declare exactly what I placed in you and called you forth for? Every moment I have been preparing you for this present darkness. Who lives with you and dwells in you, leads and guides you into the very truth that you must declare? I do. The Lord your Father, the Mighty God, the Mighty warrior, soon coming Deliverer. So no longer be afraid of men’s faces, but declare what I have given you, be bold, be righteous, be holy, for the time is drawing close. Arise and shine for the glory of the Lord is risen upon you.

“Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: as soon as its branch becomes tender and it puts out its leaves, you recognize that summer is near.  Even so, you too, when you see these things happening, know [for certain] that He is near, right at the door.” (Mark 13:28-29)

“Arise [from spiritual depression to a new life], shine [be radiant with the glory and brilliance of the Lord]; for your light has come, And the glory and brilliance of the Lord has risen upon you.” (Isaiah 60:1)

“And they will call them “The Holy People, The Redeemed of the Lord”; And you will be called “Sought Out, A City Not Deserted.” (Isaiah 62:12)

Good morning,

I Am restoring the joy of your salvation all you need to do is believe it. I say to rejoice in Me always, for I am doing wonderful things, even behind the scenes. I Am bringing to pass every word I have spoken. I Am not man that I shall lie. Every word I speak is a yes and amen over you so rejoice, always rejoice, knowing that what I say, I do, I will do. I always finish. I always complete and so I say to you this year begins to mark a new year for you. A new year of victory, a new year of walking it out, a new year of not backing down to the enemy. This is your year of glory. This is your year that your head will be held high only because you make a choice and you choose to hold it high. 

Great and mighty men and women shall be forged from fire. Everyone wants the easy way, but I Am preparing great and mighty people that have been brought through the fire. They shall be different and unique, and an anointing shall rest upon them that others have never seen. Signs and wonders shall follow them. They shall not have to run after anything in the kingdom, but because they stand for My word and speak My word, I will back them up with signs, wonders and miracles. It is for anyone who chooses to do My word, for anyone who is determined to walk wholeheartedly. It is for anyone who will run the race and not quit. It is for anyone who is determined to put their hand to the plow of My Word and not let go. It is for anyone who will not look back at the circumstances or situations that surround them daily, for I have overcome everything and I have made you overcomers. I have made you victorious. I have made you the head and not the tail. I made you above and not beneath. You are the ones that  hold the truth in your heart and in your mouth and in your whole being. If you will allow Me to now begin to dig out those dry places, those hard places, and allow the water of My Word to soak you and marinate you in My Word so that every time the enemy pokes you, all that comes forth from you is more of My word. Not your circumstances or your situation, but you will rehearse My Words.  You will become the people who say what I say by rehearsing My word despite the circumstances and situations that you face. For you know that your end is always good, for I made a promise to you that I will bring you to the end, and that end is good. I have spoken it. I have determined it. There is nothing but good for you in store. So keep your head held up. Don’t look to the left or to the right. Circumstances and situations are all around you. Yes, you are enveloped in difficult times but I say to you, look up for your God is about to come. Look up for your redemption draws nigh, look up for I Am soon to come for My bride that is ready. Everything you see is temporary. Everything you hold dear on this earth is temporary except souls only souls. That is what I Am after. I have given you a fresh, new banner to run and many shall follow the banner that you hold up for Me. They will see that I Am victorious therefore you will be victorious too.

“Not that I am implying that I was in any personal want, for I have learned how to be  content (satisfied to the point where I am not disturbed or disquieted) in whatever state I am for I have learned how to be abased and live humbly in straitened circumstances, and I know also how to enjoy plenty and live in abundance. I have learned in any and all circumstances the secret of facing every situation, whether well-fed or going hungry, having a sufficiency and enough to spare or going without and being in want. I have strength for all things in Christ Who empowers me [I am ready for anything and equal to anything through Him Who infuses inner strength into me; I am self-sufficient in Christ’s sufficiency].” (Philippians 4:11-13)

“Restore to me the joy of Your salvation and uphold me with a willing spirit.” (Psalm 51:12)

“And then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with great (transcendent and overwhelming) power and [all His kingly] glory (majesty and splendor). Now when these things begin to occur, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption (deliverance) is drawing near.” (Luke 21:27-28)

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)

Even though you may be walking through the darkest, sunless valley of the shadow of death, do not fear.  I, even I, am there to lead and guide you.  I will not leave you.

 
Good morning,
 
    Even though you may be walking through the darkest, sunless valley of the shadow of death, do not fear.  I, even I, am there to lead and guide you.  I will not leave you.  Lean on Me and I will hold you in My hands.  You will come out into the sunshine that I have prepared you for.  I will bring you to your safe haven.  You will overcome this too, and grow stronger and be more determined than ever to trust Me.  You will come to understand and know that I really know what the best way is for you.  I know that at times, you do not believe I have your best interest in My heart.  You think I have closed My ears to your cries, because it is not the way you would choose.  You are the apple of my eye, trust Me!  I can see farther than you, I know everything concerning you.  Your future is far greater than you can imagine.  If you let Me I can make your life so sweet, you will pinch yourself to make sure that it is you living it.  Will you really trust Me?  Everyday I Am bringing you closer to the end of this place that you are in.  I hear you, I care for you.  You are not by yourself.  I am turning things around and straightening out the crooked places in you, as well as in your living.  I can be trusted with every detail of your life.  I am your Father, and I am dependable.  Most of all, My beloved, I love you more, so much more than you love yourself.  Stop running around to everyone and everything else, come up and rest in My arms.  Take a deep breath and rest in Me.  Fix your gaze on Me.  I truly am trustworthy.  Come on, run to Me, I will be your resting place.
 
    "The steps of a good man are ordered {directed and established} by the Lord: He delights in every detail of their lives.  Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down, for the Lord grasps his hand in support and upholds him." Psalm 37:23-24
    
    "For he who has entered God's rest (intermission; recreation; repose; to be refreshed and to take ease) has also ceased {be still} from the weariness and pain of human labors." (Heb. 4:10)
    
    "Then they cry unto the Lord in their trouble, and he bringeth them out of their distresses. He maketh the storm a calm, so that the waves thereof are still.  Then are they glad because they be quiet; so he bringeth them unto their desired haven.  Oh that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men! (Ps. 107:28-31)
 
Love,

     "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)
