September 6, 2024 – Ears to Hear, Hearts to Obey

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).

Love,

Good morning,

There are moments in deep worship where I bring you to gaze upon My loveliness.  As you gaze upon Me you are continually being changed into My very own image.  As you keep gazing, you will see those things that once hindered you from being truly free, fall from you like a feather blowing in the wind.  What was hard for you was dust in the wind to Me.  You will become free to follow Me up to mountains of victory.  Every mountain of testing and trouble has prepared you so that you are able to navigate easily the new mountains of victory.  As you go up higher, where the altitude is thinner you will be able to maintain a soundness, whereas those who have never been up so high would fall away and faint.  You have allowed yourself to be trained by Me in those difficult places and steep areas that were meant to bring you down, instead, you developed ‘hind’s feet.’
At this high altitude, it is a place of great light for understanding and revelation. You will begin to understand those deep things now, for I have taken you into My light, which minimizes obscurity.  Yet, be aware at the same time that this great light of revelation comes, it will be accompanied by great persecution. When you receive deeper insight, you will have more responsibility for what I give to you.  You must handle with wisdom what I give.  For to whom much is given, much is required.  Treat this next level as a prized treasure, for I Am bringing to the surface all that will advance My Kingdom.  Remember it is My Kingdom that you are living for, it is not only for yourself or another.  Use it as I direct you into the arenas that I instruct.  This great light is come for you, so that you may rise and shine and bring those who have been crying to see the light.  You will be a reservoir for them, not a pool.  I will pour you out freely to all that I will send you to.  Obedience is what I require. Obedience is simple if you love Me.  As you step up into the light you are moving further away from darkness, and as you move up you will incur jealousy, persecution, and hatred.  It will be from those who say they are in the light, yet their hatred, jealousy, and persecution stem from the force of darkness.  They who do evil hate the light.  For they who persecute My children, who walk in the light, they are persecuting Me.  From these, withdraw!  Do not be afraid to keep walking closer to Me and My light, let your love for Me be your driving force.  The false have always persecuted the real.  Now My children who are children of the light will be reflecting the light of heaven.  Duplicating what they have seen in the heavenlies, from their times of deep worship.  Living in what to
some may be the ‘miraculous’ will become normal to My light-walkers.

“But the path of the just (righteous) is like the light of dawn, that shines brighter and brighter until [it reaches its full strength and glory in] the perfect day.” (Proverbs 4:18)

“[I always pray] that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may grant you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation [that gives you a deep and personal and intimate insight] into the true knowledge of Him [for we know the Father through the Son]” (Ephesians 1:17)

“The Lord God is my strength [my source of courage, my invincible army]; He has made my feet [steady and sure] like hinds’ feet And makes me walk [forward with spiritual confidence] on my high places [of challenge and responsibility].” (Habakkuk 3:19)

Good morning,
 
     I have opened a gate, a portal into more of My glory to those who have a heart of adventure to see My face, to go beyond the ordinary to the extraordinary.  You shall step into the places that very few men have ever seen, known or heard, but it takes boldness to go here, it takes letting go of the familiar.  It takes stepping in, past your feelings, past your thoughts, and past the things that are surrounding you; all of the happenings of this present age.  It takes faith to step here, and I say to you who have that faith, who have that desire, who have that longing, because not every man has the longing to go beyond the normal.  Not every man has the longing to go beyond what they see, feel, and think.  Even in My house people are bound by their feelings, what they see,  what they think, and what they can touch but I say step into those extraordinary places where I can show you the colors of heaven.  Those colors bring things into clarity out of obscurity!  It is where I can reveal to you the wisdom that is at your disposal, where I can cause you to be surrounded by the heavenly host, where there is no weapon that is formed on this earth that can penetrate the power and protection of that heavenly host.  So step into that place through your worship!
     The enemy has tried to steal the worship of My people through the COVID-19, through causing My people not to congregate.  A plan of the enemy to cause the power that I cause My people to have when they assemble together, not to be at its most effective.  That is why I said, not to forsake the assembling of yourselves together as you see the day approaching, there is great power that this available that can not comprehended.  By this time you should be further along in the places that I desire you to be, but I will multiply your seed of time sown during this season that the enemy tried to steal.  The secret places, the pools of glory, the anointing's that await you is through the gate.  So I say step in past your feelings, past your emotions, past the familiar places that you have been to, past those ordinary places, usual pools, and come into the extraordinary pools of glory that I have laid aside just for you.  So step in, step in through your worship, step in through your prayer language that I given you, the heavenly tongues to connect to heaven beyond your natural mind, beyond your natural conception of things and how they ought to be.  Step into the supernatural, step out of the ordinary into the extraordinary of your God.  I have laid these things up just for you, so step in.  Apply pressure, by applying My Word, and step in says the Lord, there are unique and needed treasures awaiting the bold ones.
 
     "Blessed [happy, prosperous, to be admired] is the man who listens to me, Watching daily at my gates, Waiting at my doorposts.  For whoever finds me (Wisdom) finds life And obtains favor and grace from the Lord." (Prov. 8:34-35)
     "..and let us consider [thoughtfully] how we may encourage one another to love and to do good deeds, not forsaking our meeting together [as believers for worship and instruction], as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another; and all the more [faithfully] as you see the day [of Christ’s return] approaching" (Heb. 10:24-25).
     "My passion is to enlighten every person to this divine mystery.  It was hidden for ages past until now, and kept a secret in the heart of God, the Creator of all.  The purpose of this was to unveil before every throne and rank of angelic orders in the heavenly realm God’s full and diverse wisdom revealed through the church.  This perfectly wise plan was destined from eternal ages and fulfilled completely in our Lord Jesus Christ, so that now we have boldness through him, and free access as kings, before the Father because of our complete confidence in Christ’s faithfulness." (Eph. 3:9-12)
     "Lord, how wonderful you are!  You have stored up so many good things for us, like a treasure chest heaped up and spilling over with blessings—all for those who honor and worship you!  Everybody knows  what you can do for those who turn and hide themselves in you." (Ps. 31:19)
 
Love,
 
Pastor D.
