Good morning,


    I Am requiring My Bride to draw closer and pay strict attention for the year ahead. I know that you have been running the race and yet some have gotten weary and others have slowed their pace. As you come aside into the chambers of My love you will hear my instructions and directions for this upcoming year. Here you will receive strength and stamina for the pace you will need to keep. Those who will not draw near will not make the strides that I have planned for them, but those who will require me as their necessary food, they will be filled with revelation, wisdom, and understanding. They will begin to step up the pace as they follow Me in pursuit of their destiny and purpose this year. You will hear My voice clearly saying walk this way and you will no longer delay in your steps.
 

    Here in the secret place is where you will see the pathway that you heard me tell you of years gone by. But now you will quicken your pace because of the decision to draw nearer to Me. You will arise and shine this year with such clarity for the plans and strategies are now easier to follow. You have eyes to see that the course has already been laid out for you and all that was needed was a yielded and obedient heart. All of the plans of the enemy will be thwarted because you know how to avoid his snares and traps because of the insight you received while sitting in My chambers. I have assembled My bride, My army, My righteous ones, hear My call.
 

    Do not fear the separation that comes as you become desperate for Me and My presence. Many are not and will not hearken to My call to draw near. So as you listen to My Spirit you will experience a new dimension of holiness that will easily distinguish you from others. I Am assembling My remnant army. Many of you I have already cut away from the ones that are apathetic and complacent. You have heard the voice of your Lover and Lord. I have been calling to you to come closer for years, now you know it is time to hearken and obey. Your yes to Me and your desire to become more intimately acquainted with Me will cause you to accelerate into a higher place with Me. You will be set above your brethren by your response of drawing closer. I Am saying to work while the day is upon you for the night is coming and no man will be able to work. I Am equipping you with My wisdom and understanding to be a sign and My light on a hill so many may see and come. Come away My beloved and know and be prepared for all that will come in the year ahead. Dwelling in the secret place is essential in the days ahead. You hear what you need to know for this year ahead.

“And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.” (Galatians 6:9)

“Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.” (Romans 11:5)

“My beloved spake, and said unto me, Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away…O my dove, that art in the clefts of the rock, in the secret places of the stairs, let me see thy countenance, let me hear thy voice; for sweet is thy voice, and thy countenance is comely.” (Song of Songs 2:10 & 14)

 If My people will turn their backs on the ways of this world and leave the distractions of this present age behind them, they will open their eyes and have them flooded with the light of My ways. 

 
Good morning,
 
    If My people will turn their backs on the ways of this world and leave the distractions of this present age behind them, they will open their eyes and have them flooded with the light of My ways.  I will use the trials and tribulations of your seasons of life as dung.  Yes, I will mulch down every obstacle, trial, and tribulation in your life and use it to produce a massive harvest in your life.  The strategies and tactics that the enemy thought would bring you down, I delight in turning them around to show our enemy that His best is nothing but dung to us.  What he thought would destroy you I have cunningly used to incite you to riot against the kingdom of darkness.  You realized that you have been lied to and you are ready to be the winner you actually are.  Rising up in you is the "warrior bride."  You are staying in a state of readiness for your soon coming lover, and you will fight off any foxes of life that will try and prevent you from staying prepared.  You know now that all these trials and tribulations were sent to divert your power and your energy away from what you are truly longing for.  Yes, that is more of Me, deeper intimacy with Me.  With great fervor and zeal, you are now setting your gaze upon Me, My bride, My fair one.  You see that with great revelation, that I Am the One and only One that can put you over.  I Am over every trial, test, circumstance, tribulation, hardship, and adversity of life, I Am.  I Am rising in your life as a contented lover and supplying for you as a great provider so that you will not lack in any area of your life.  I Am here to fulfill the longings of your heart because you have remained faithful to Me, you did not go defiling our love life, by filling your heart with every imitated lover.  Those who promised you things, that only I could provide.  You trusted Me when things looked impossible, yet you kept on believing Me.  You refused the well-timed advances, of the false lovers.  Our enemy thought you were weak.  He did not know that your cries were for Me, and I heard them like a horn sounding for battle.  I Am here to fight on your behalf, stand beside Me, your great Warrior has arisen.  The whole earth will tremble at My arising.  You will see Me doing wonders in the earth and through My bride, My lovers.  She will step into My ways now.  The intensity of Who I Am will be seen through her.  She has arisen, for I have arisen in her.  Refreshed with strength, power, wisdom, signs, and wonders, the world will now look on and see that I Am is here.  Together we will sweep the earth and call my army, the warrior bride to attention.  Those who are mine will hearken and do.  My lovers will arise.  All who are faithful I will reward plentifully.
 
    "Take [with me] your share of the hardships and suffering [which you are called to endure] as a good (first-class) soldier of Christ Jesus. No soldier when in service gets entangled in the enterprises of [civilian] life; his aim is to satisfy and please the one who enlisted him." (2 Tim. 2:3-4)
 
    "For no temptation (no trial regarded as enticing to sin), [no matter how it comes or where it leads] has overtaken you and laid hold on you that is not common to man [that is, no temptation or trial has come to you that is beyond human resistance and that is not adjusted and adapted and belonging to human experience, and such as man can bear].  But God is faithful [to His Word and to His compassionate nature], and He [can be trusted] not to let you be tempted and tried and assayed beyond your ability and strength of resistance and power to endure, but with the temptation He will [always] also provide the way out (the means of escape to a landing place), that you may be capable and strong and powerful to bear up under it patiently." (1 Corin. 10:13)
 
    "Do not love or cherish the world or the things that are in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in him." (1 John 2:15)
 
    "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)

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)

 I have warned my people in advance through my Word about the End-Times and the assault that would come to try and bring discouragement. 

Cold-love
 
Good morning,
 
    I have warned my people in advance through my Word about the End-Times and the assault that would come to try and bring discouragement.  Each assignment is to try and seduce my children into a slumber or catatonic condition where they are slow to act upon My word.  The aim is to beguile My people away from Me.  This will cause many of the great ambassadors, generals, and strong ones in My House to grow cold.  This coldness of their heart will come in varying degrees, you have beheld some of it with your own eyes.  My priests committing adultery, fornication, brothers rising up against brothers, daughters against mothers, sons against fathers, here begins the love of many growing cold.  The spirit of Jezebel has been released, it is creeping into every house where doors have been opened.  This Jezebel spirit is manipulative, and a seducer.  You have watched and seen that the spirit has caused a wicked, deceitful, air of immorality.  What is good is often evil spoken of, and what is evil is applauded.  It works with and accompanies the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes, desires that
control the person while making the person "out of control".  Immorality is considered to be normal, for My measuring stick no longer applies.  This is a "pleasure-dominated" generation and it has crept unchecked into My Household because many of My children were being led astray as well.  The spirit of Jezebel is stimulated by the pride of life, it breeds self-righteousness.  Pride will not tolerate being corrected or being taught.  Self-righteousness causes one to become hard of heart and to always think that they are right.  Pharaoh walked in this stronghold.  It does not matter how many miracles were done, he still did what he wanted to do even to his death.  This spirit will delude one into a believable lie and trap them there.  They will think small of everyone else and as this root goes deeper it will become a critical and cynical yeast that will infect many in My House.  Cut it off, by washing on overload with my Word of love.
    That is why I have been calling you to come up higher, so that you may be safe and hidden from the enemy's strategies.  I do not want you to become blind to the ways of the system of the world that is under the sway of the wicked one.  Open your eyes and look and see.  Too many of My people have become entangled with this system and live for things that are brief and fleeting.  The temporal life weighs more on their hearts and minds.  They spend more time on those things that have no eternal value.  Building with wood, hay, and stubble, all of those things that hold very little value and will burn in My Presence.  Quit living only to build bigger and better barns in My Name.  My buildings are souls!  Have I not said that you are My temple, My sanctuary.  I gave all to build living temples.  Stop, and buy of Me gold and silver, that which is costly and valuable to the Kingdom.  Those things have everlasting values.  Come back to Me, and renew your vows by doing My will.  Then your eyes will be opened and you will see all of those "things" are roadblocks and obstacles to My purposes and plans.  Come and build temples with Me!
 
    "For all that is in the world—the lust and sensual craving of the flesh and the lust and longing of the eyes and the boastful pride of life [pretentious confidence in one’s resources or in the stability of earthly things]—these do not come from the Father, but are from the world." (1 John 2:16)
 
    "Now in a large house there are not only vessels and objects of gold and silver, but also vessels and objects of wood and of earthenware, and some are for honorable (noble, good) use and some for dishonorable (ignoble, common).  Therefore, if anyone cleanses himself from these things [which are dishonorable—disobedient, sinful], he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified [set apart for a special purpose and], useful to the Master, prepared for every good work." (2 Tim. 2:20-21)
 
    "According to the [remarkable] grace of God which was given to me [to prepare me for my task], like a skillful master builder I laid a foundation, and now another is building on it. But each one must be careful how he builds on it, for no one can lay a foundation other than the one which is [already] laid, which is Jesus Christ.  But if anyone builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw, each one’s work will be clearly shown [for what it is]; for the day [of judgment] will disclose it, because it is to be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality and character and worth of each person’s work. If any person’s work which he has built [on this foundation, that is, any outcome of his effort] remains [and survives this test], he will receive a reward." (1 Corin. 3:10-14)

     "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)

An army is arising with heavenly wisdom and strategies, having more insight and knowing how to successfully wage war against the enemy. 

Spartan-3696073_1280
 
Good morning,
 
     An army is arising with heavenly wisdom and strategies, having more insight and knowing how to successfully wage war against the enemy.  My mighty people that stay consistently raised up and seated with Me in heavenly places are excelling.  That seat which is far above principalities, powers, rulers of darkness of this world and spiritual wickedness in heavenly places.  You must take all that I have given you to be able to stand against the wicked one in the evil day.  My people will stand immovable and abounding always in My work, doing My business.  This people will stand and will always receive the victory.  You will get up from the deep spiritual slumber of worries and cares that have pressed upon your mind.  My people will live purposefully and accurately as Kingdom priests and kings do.  Ambassadors that represent "Our" Kingdom, not living a vague and thoughtless life, but understanding and applying My Word.  My will is saving souls, and this army marches to a higher level of glory as it goes, snatching souls from hell's fire.  The covering of their lives shows that they are living in My Presence.  My glory is being transferred on them, an ever increasing enlightenment.  You will hear and see and know what to do in this tight constricted place of pressure.  This pressing will break forth into new wine, overflowing.  This pruning process is to make you more productive.  The new wine causes you to have higher wisdom and knowledge that I Am working things out for your good.  As this process of pressing continues you will be able to keep anxiety from choking your trust in Me.  Now watch and see what "We" will do!  This is a tuning for precision moments for all of My children that lean on Me.  You must not allow the process to break you down, but to make you a sharper instrument for My glory.  You are being made into a vessel of honor for my grace and glory to flow to those I am bringing you to.  Stay strong, for I Am opening creative ways for healing, deliverance and wholeness in your life as well as those I send you to.  I Am giving you new witty ideas for provisions to prosper you and to keep you ahead.  Now those who have heard Me will increase in their ability to discern and see what lies ahead.  Through darkness your light will shine even brighter.

 
     "Therefore see that you walk carefully [living life with honor, purpose, and courage; shunning those who tolerate and enable evil], not as the unwise, but as wise [sensible, intelligent, discerning people], making the very most of your time [on earth, recognizing and taking advantage of each opportunity and using it with wisdom and diligence], because the days are [filled with] evil.  Therefore do not be foolish and thoughtless, but understand and firmly grasp what the will of the Lord is." (Eph. 5:15-17)
 
     "And the threshing floors shall be full of grain, And the vats shall overflow with new wine and oil “And I will compensate you for the years.  That the swarming locust has eaten,The creeping locust, the stripping locust, and the gnawing locust - My great army which I sent among you." (Joel 2:24-25)
 
     “For wisdom is better than rubies; And all desirable things cannot compare with her.  I, [godly] wisdom, reside with prudence [good judgment, moral courage and astute common sense], And I find knowledge and discretion." (Prov. 8:11-12)
Love,
