October 24, 2025 – Ears to Hear/Hearts to Obey

Good morning,

I am constantly being reminded of Matthew 24:10-13; “And many will turn away from Me and betray and hate each other.  And many false prophets will appear and deceive (cause to err; cause to roam from safety truth or virtue; to seduce one to wander; to be out of the right way) many people.  Sin will be rampant everywhere and the love of many will grow cold.  But the one who endures to the end shall be saved.” I have talked once before, how vitally important it is for us as Christians to keep our godly love lives stirred up.  Also, the ‘love’ word in that verse can only be referring to those who have been born-again.  For the word is is actually, agape which is the god type of love, which is His love that was shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit.  (Rom. 5:5) Romans 12:10; says for us to be, “devoted to one another in brotherly love; (which is phileo-love) give preference to one another in love.”  Ephesians 4;2 says, “Living as becomes you with complete lowliness of mind (humility) and meekness (unselfishness, gentleness, mildness) with patience bearing with one
another and making allowance because you love one another.”  Why, is she still talking about this ‘love thing’, I can hear you asking? Great, that you asked, now I’d like to explain it the way it was given to me.

The Lord said that we are all believing for something in our lives.  The great distractions and cares of this world and all the recent troubles have caused most to become self- concerned.  Our energy is being used just getting through the day, because of so many transitions, trials, tests, and tribulations that have taken place in our lives in such a short period.  Adjusting takes a lot of our efforts.  The enemy uses this time to try to get us to chip away at our foundation of our faith, which is the love of God.  (I Corin. 13:13; Mtt. 22:35-40)  Not walking in the love of God, especially toward the household of faith will affect our believing or our faith.  “For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth anything, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh (our faith is activated; energized and expressed) by love.” (Gal.5:6)  We must keep sowing seeds of love in order to keep our faith operative.  We cannot be selfish, we must prefer one another. “For he who sows to his flesh (lower nature) will from the flesh will reap (harvest) decay and ruin and destruction, but he who sows to the Spirit (love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and meekness) will from the Spirit reap eternal life.  And let us not lose heart and grow weary and faint in acting nobly and doing right; for in due time and at the appointed season we shall reap, if we do not loosen and relax our courage and faint.” (Gal.6:8-9)We do have help from on high.  Jesus, who is our high priest ever liveth to make intercession for us.  (Heb.7:25)  Listen to this account that the Lord said to Peter.  Luke 22: 31-32; “Simon, Simon, behold, Satan has asked excessively that [all of] you be given up to him [out of the power and keeping of God], that he might sift [all of] you like grain.  But I have prayed especially for you, that your own faith may not fail; and when you yourself have turned again, strengthen and establish your brethren.” In order to have effective faith, we must keep our foundation of love secured.  Don’t let the ‘little foxes’ of bitterness, unforgiveness, anger, hatred, etc., that are trying to destroy or damage our garden of love run rampant.  Deal with them quickly.  Forgive others, let them go, let it drop.  Don’t step in the trap that is set to stop you from advancing in the Kingdom.  Catch those ‘little foxes’ and throw them out of your garden!  Remember the great intercessor is praying for us that our faith will not fail.  If our faith doesn’t fail then our love will not grow cold. 

Love,

Pastor D.

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,

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)

Good morning,

Yes, you can sense by My Spirit that lives and abides on the inside of you that I Am doing something miraculous. I have opened up in this time and this season, portals, and realms of glory and I Am now causing you to have far greater insight than you have ever possessed because the season is here. It has come upon you, some unawares, others, they have been watching, waiting, and hoping for this very moment, and to you, it is something supernatural that you have longed for. To others, it is almost a spectacle that they are afraid to walk into but for you who are called by My Spirit, you are walking in and partaking of all that I have given to you for this final hour, this final time, and this final season. Everything up to now has been in preparation for this final hour and season. My people will shine because they will begin to walk in what I have given them, and demonstrations of power, of My precious spirit shall begin to flow from them like they have not seen it demonstrated before.  Men and women will come to know Me. And it shall come at the same time, just as men and women are coming to know Me, those who have been cold, and lukewarm, will begin to slide away from My presence. But those who are hungry and thirsty, will rise to the top and rise to the surface. They will become God’s known giants in the land and the enemy will be afraid of the wonders and signs that they will do in My name. So great are My end-time warriors, great is the anointing that I placed on you to walk in. You will know and sense that the spirit is on the increase, We are on the increase in all that I Am doing in the days that are ahead.

So get in on what I Am doing, don’t stand on the sideline looking in. Come on in into the deep. Come on in into the deep. Come on into the greater  that I have set aside for you. I knew the season that you would walk in, and I prepared a great waking to Me, a great anointing, a great and large place for you to walk in. Come on in. Yes, and that is why the enemy has come in a greater way. He is trying to pull the wool over My people’s heart he is trying to pull blinders over your eyes. He is using everything he can do to cause your ears not to be attentive, your eyes not to see, to overwhelm your senses, but I say greater is the one on the inside of you He is giving you the ability to recognize and discern the things that are now coming. Be alert, be watching, always knowing that I have already overcome everything the enemy can come up with.

“But rather what we are setting forth is a wisdom of God once hidden [from the human understanding] and now revealed to us by God—[that wisdom] which God devised and decreed before the ages for our glorification [to lift us into the glory of His presence]” (1 Corinthians 2:7)

“For you shall forget your misery; you shall remember it as waters that pass away. And [your] life shall be clearer than the noonday and rise above it; though there be darkness, it shall be as the morning. And you shall be secure and feel confident because there is hope; yes, you shall search about you, and you shall take your rest in safety.” (Job 11:16-18)

“Little children, you are of God [you belong to Him] and have [already] defeated and overcome them [the agents of the antichrist], because He Who lives in you is greater (mightier) than he who is in the world.” (1 John 4:4)

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,

Good morning,

You must empty yourself of yourself for Me to fill you to overflow. Empty yourself of all of the things that you brought in, all of the things that you carry in this vessel. You must empty yourself of your preconceived ideas, your thoughts and of your will and your emotions that are not like Me. You know those things that I have visited you time and time again to empty yourself of them so that I might fill you with more of Me. I can only fill you to overflowing if you empty yourself. The more that you empty yourself of those ideas and concepts that are not Mine, I can fill you to overflowing. I can cause you to become the men and women of God that I ordained long before you were even born. I knew you and I formed you for a purpose and a design, but in order for you to fulfill that very purpose, you must be empty of this world. You must die so that the Spirit of the Living God might live big inside.  You will become more like Me, and men and women will say they are the Jesus people. They are the people of God, they act like Him, they talk like Him, they are not of this world, and they will recognize that you have a different spirit, You walk a different way, you talk a different way, you behave a different way, because your God has filled you to overflowing with His Spirit. Now allow Me to do that work on the inside of you. That is where it begins. You will be a beacon of light as the world becomes darker. You will permeate your sphere with the fragrance of your Father.  I  will continue to fill you with all of My goodness so that you can effect those that I send across your pathway. I will fill the whole earth with My glory by My glorycarriers.

“For we are the sweet fragrance of Christ [which ascends] to God, [discernible both] among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing;” (2 Corinthians 2:15)

“And those whom He thus foreordained, He also called; and those whom He called, He also justified (acquitted, made righteous, putting them into right standing with Himself). And those whom He justified, He also glorified [raising them to a heavenly dignity and condition or state of being].” (Romans 8:30)

“For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ . But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us” (2 Corinthians 4:6-7).

Great clarity comes as you wait in My Presence. Clarity is not just the ability to see things clearly with your eyes, but the ability to see things with your mind and your spirit.

Glasses
 
Good morning,
 
    Great clarity comes as you wait in My Presence. Clarity is not just the ability to see things clearly with your eyes, but the ability to see things with your mind and your spirit. To understand things that before you could not because of the cloudiness of your own understanding but great clarity is yours even as My servants. My prophets of old sat before me and with great clarity, they recognized their calling and each one of them accepted it. Their great clarity was the awareness of the power that would accompany them to fulfill their purpose, that they would see everything that I anointed them to do. 
    Great clarity, understanding, insight, and the ability to move into the next realm that I Am calling you into, which will distinguish you above other people. My clarity given will set you up, set you up for greatness, and set you up for those things that I have for you. All heaven will be at your disposal and greater things than you could ever imagine will your eyes behold. Set you up right now. As your arms open wide to receive everything that I have called you to. Remember My servants the prophets, it was not always good for them, but in the end, says the Lord greater things awaited them. So shall it be for you, some things will come to you immediately, while other things, much better things await you. For I Am a rewarder of those who diligently seek me. Great clarity has come to you because you walk in the fear of your God and seek My face. You shall awake in My likeness and see and hear with My clarity.
 
“Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”[ (1 Corin. 2.9)
    
    "But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. (Hebrews 11:6)
 
    "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father." (John 14:12)

 He who praises from his heart raises perfect praise unto God.  He abandons his reasoning processes which alter his praise.

Guy-Praising-God
 
Good morning,
 
    He who praises from his heart raises perfect praise unto God.  He abandons his reasoning processes which alters his praise.  But when he steps over into the realm of the Spirit and yields his members to the Spirit, the Spirit begins to work together with them.  Praising Me for who I Am, praising Me for what I have done and what I Am doing, praises Me for what I Am going to do because the spirit on the inside of man longs to be involved with what the Spirit of God is doing.  They are in tune with one another and if you allow the spirit on the inside of you to stay hooked up to the Spirit of the Living God, you will walk in a supernatural place.  A higher place beyond the places that men have been and you will excel in those encounters.  You will see what I Am seeing, and you will hear what I Am hearing and you will know ahead of time all that the enemy is doing.  You will see the angels doing the work that I called them to do.  You will see with the eyes of the Spirit and know the twenty-four elders and all the heavenly Sanhedrin are busy about My work.  You will be in the midst says the Lord, you will not stand outside.  You will be overwhelmed by the glory, the power, the honor, the might, and the majesty.  Then you will step into this earth realm with all of that glory, might, and power, exercising dominion and authority in every sphere that I have given to you. You will do what you must do on this earth and you will do it with ease.  For this is the generation that I have called, a people who will do mighty exploits with ease because they have learned to abide in the secret place.  They dwell in the midst, they sit in My presence, and they have experienced Me and they allow Me to work through them.  And this is the people that have abandoned themselves to Me so that I might do the works and they might see Me glorified in this world, in this land, and men will turn from their wicked ways, and they will recognize that there is a God.  Now, collectively and corporately My children will begin to shine as they fulfill their purpose.  They realize that they are in this world but not of this world, so they are separating themselves from the things of this world to be the extraordinary people that I have called them to be.  This is this generation that I have poured out My glory and My anointing upon, they will cause this world to know that they are Mine, for My seal of favor is upon them.
 
    "For You, Lord, will bless the [uncompromisingly] righteous [him who is upright and in right standing with You]; as with a shield You will surround him with goodwill (pleasure and favor)." (Ps. 5:12)
 
    "What is man that You are mindful of him, and the son of [earthborn] man that You care for him? Yet You have made him but a little lower than God [or heavenly beings], and You have crowned him with glory and honor. You made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet:" (Ps. 8:4-6)
 
    "And He raised us up together with Him and made us sit down together [giving us joint seating with Him] in the heavenly sphere [by virtue of our being] in Christ Jesus (the Messiah, the Anointed One).
He did this that He might clearly demonstrate through the ages to come the immeasurable (limitless, surpassing) riches of His free grace (His unmerited favor) in [His] kindness and goodness of heart toward us in Christ Jesus." (Eph. 2:6-7)
 
    "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!" (Is. 60:1)
 
Love,
