September 12, 2025 – Ears to Hear/Hearts to Obey

Good morning.

We are living in the most exciting time in God’s timetable!  As we read the Word of God it is almost like having a panoramic view of our daily “news at eleven.”  The Word of God is daily unfolding before our very eyes.  As we see what is happening in Israel and also what is going on in our very own neck of the world, it should be fueling your fire for more of God.  Romans 8:19-25 says, “For all creation is waiting eagerly for that future day when God will reveal who His children really are.  Against its will, all creation was subjected to God’s curse (because of the fall of mankind).  But with eager hope, the creation looks forward to the day when it will join God’s children in glorious freedom from death and decay.  For we know that all creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time.  And we believers also groan, even though we have the Holy Spirit within us as a foretaste of future glory, for we long for our bodies to be released from sin and suffering.  We, too, wait with eager hope for the day when God will give us our full rights as His adopted children, including the new bodies He has promised us.  We were given this hope when we were saved [if we already have something, we don’t need to hope for it.]  But if we look forward to something we don’t yet have, we “must wait patiently and confidently.“

    We are in the season of God’s timetable, where all that can be shaken is being shaken.  All false foundations and securities are being shaken and removed.  Anything we thought that was our security is being revealed as sinking sand.  Our trust must be developed in the One true security.  Remember we saw in Hebrews 12:26 & 27, “His voice shook the earth at (Mt. Sinai) then, but now He has given a promise, saying, Once again I will shake not only the earth but the heavens also.  This means that all creation will be shaken and removed, so that only unshakable things remain.” God and His Kingdom are the only things that are secure.  While the economy, jobs, people, nations, and earthly kingdoms are shaking, we must look up to our Kingdom, whose Builder and Maker is God.  As ambassadors from God’s Kingdom, when the land that we occupy as ambassadors proves to be intolerable, the ambassadors are brought back to their homeland.  Our King is about to call all of his ambassadors home!  So, keep your mind on your ‘eternal home’, we are only here temporarily, representing our ‘heavenly country’.  I’ve heard it said, “that sometimes we are so heavenly minded that we are no earthly good.”  I have come to see the opposite is true, ‘that we can become to earthly minded to be any heavenly good’.  After all our ‘home’ is in heaven and we receive our insight to live and to occupy this land from the headquarters in heaven. “…Aim at and seek the rich eternal treasures that are above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God.  And set your minds and keep them set on what is above (the higher things), not on the things that are on the earth.” (Col.3: 1-2)  So, let the earth shake and groan into ‘global warming’, it is going through death and decay because of sin.  Creation, your wait is almost over, the sons of God are being manifested now.  We are growing up into mature sons of God. “Besides this you know what a critical hour it is, how it is high time now for us to wake up out of our sleep.  For salvation [final deliverance] is nearer to us now than when we first believed.” (Romans 13:11)

Good morning,

  I Am still passing by, putting My hands over your eyes to open them so that you might behold My glory. Many will not enter in, for it takes a little practice of putting Me first place, so that you might come up higher and hear Me and see Me move. Pray in the Spirit. Pray more in the spirit until you understand exactly what I Am saying because I Am speaking through My spirit. I Am speaking by My Spirit to your spirit secret things, things that are yet to be revealed and still unknown by you. I  Am asking you to step into the outer limits.  Places for you to see clearly, because I will not abandon you, nor allow you to go any place that I have not already gone ahead of you. I made the way clear and understand Me you will not get lost from you, but you will be changed by being lost from you and this is what is needed for you to become more like Me. So begin to abandon yourself more and more.
I Am perfecting you for the things that are ahead. You must be empty of yourself. You must allow Me to speak into you and cause you to see the unknown things and the hidden things. You have to empty yourself and this is where I have been taking you all along. So that every moment you come before Me you die little by little so that more of My Glory is seen in you. So that then you become the one who carries My glory and My glory resides on the inside of you, and My glory changes everything on the inside of you that is not like Me.  Make you more like Me, so that, yes, when you awake, you awake in My glory and My image, looking like Me. So abandon yourself again. Keep on until you arise in Me, gazing into the mirror of My Word, and recognizing you have been written in the pages and you are My heirs, I knew you and formed you and placed eternity in you, it is for good.

“The Lord will accomplish that which concerns me; Your [unwavering] lovingkindness, O Lord, endures forever—Do not abandon the works of Your own hands.” (Psalm 138:8)

“As for me, I shall see Your face in righteousness; I will be [fully] satisfied when I awake [to find myself] seeing Your likeness.” (Psalm 17:15)

“In the same way the Spirit [comes to us and] helps us in our weakness. We do not know what prayer to offer or how to offer it as we should, but the Spirit Himself [knows our need and at the right time] intercedes on our behalf with sighs and groanings too deep for words” (Romans 8:26). 

Love,

Pastor D.
