Good morning,

I Am breaking open the vault. I Am allowing you to see things that you never thought you would see. I Am causing you to gaze into a place of loveliness and a place of power, into a place where I Am working so that you might understand I never stop doing what I promised you I would do. I never take My hands off a promise unless you ask Me to. I Am perfecting and performing every good thing towards your life. I Am doing it even when it seemed like difficult situations come and stop and alter My plan, it never does for I Am a God that starts and accomplishes for a perfect end. There is nothing that the enemy can throw in the midst of what I start to stop it. I just keep on moving through to My desired end, the enemy cannot stop My plan nor My purpose in your life. You are the only one who can hinder that. So as long as you stay with Me, stay with My promise, believe in Me, holding My hand, allowing Me to pick you up when you are weary and tired and carry you to the next level and carry you to the next step. We will do it. We will accomplish it. We will finish it.

I Am not done with My children, but I Am working now through those who will yield to Me and give Me their whole being. Everything that you understand and that you do not for I Am greater than your understanding. I Am the God of understanding so when you don’t know what is going on, trust Me, I do know. I Am working it out for you. I Am bringing these things to pass, even using the difficult moments and situations that you do not comprehend for I Am putting all pieces together. All things work together for your good to bring you to a stronger person, a stronger one that I have called you to be. I have never been unfaithful to you, do not be unfaithful to Me. Keep My Word, keep My promises, and you will see I will receive the glory. I will cause you to receive the glory and together we will share the glory that is gotten through and by My name.

You are in a war. Recognize the enemy does not quit, you cannot afford to stop either. You must learn to follow in motion and stay in step and stay in tune with My Spirit, doing exactly what I called you to do, whether it feels good or not. I Am bringing you to the divine purpose and end that I made to you the first time you gave your life to Me. I have not changed nor altered My mind about you. I said it was good and it is good!

“Open my eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of Your law.” (Psalm 119:18)

“Declaring the end and the result from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all My pleasure and purpose,” (Isaiah 46:10)

“But [only] with [God] are [perfect] wisdom and might; He [alone] has [true] counsel and understanding.” Job 12:13)

Good morning,

I Am clothing My children with more of My Glory. It is a glory that strengthens as well as covers. It is a glory that brings understanding as well as insight and wisdom. It is a glory that causes you to walk in the giftings that I’ve placed within you. It is a glory that is waking up that person on the inside that I placed My spirit into and I speak to daily, that I encourage to rise up and take over. Be the one that goes forth in this season. It is the glory that abides in the tent that covers. It is the glory of the one that I fashioned and formed before this world was ever known. It is the glory that is within you calling to the deep inside of you, wakening My Spirit, the one full of My Glory, full of My power, full of wisdom and insight. I am calling to the deep in you. Allow the deep to hear and answer and come forth. In the days that are ahead, I need My people to be strong. I need My people to be hearing people, people that understand, people that understand with clarity and insight and can move with Me when I say move and can be still when I say be still. I need My people to awaken to the move of the Father that’s within them. I need My people to be gentle, yet full of power and authority. I need My people to rise up, to walk in that place of authority, in the heights that I have called them to, far above the principalities and powers of this world and this ungodly system that have governed them. To hear Me and know that greater one lives on the inside of you, greater than anything that you have ever gone through or anything that you have ever known. I Am greater, and I Am there speaking to you, to rise up, speaking to you, to wake from the slumber that this world has kept you in. Awake to the all things that I have called you to. For there are greater things for you, even now, before I come and take My bride away, before I come and receive My bride unto My arms. There is a greater power residing on the inside that must come forth in great power. Awake and allow the power of your Father to come forth.

“But You, O Lord, are a shield for me, My glory [and my honor], and the One who lifts my head.” (Psalms 3:3)

“God [in His eternal plan] chose to make known to them how great for the Gentiles are the riches of the glory of this mystery, which is Christ in and among you, the hope and guarantee of [realizing the] glory,” (Colossians 1:27)

“He reveals deep and mysterious things and knows what lies hidden in darkness, though he is surrounded by light.” (Daniel 2:22)

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)

Good morning,

Those who have honored Me, who have loved Me, who have worshiped Me, are about to enter into a season of knowing. They will walk in a different level of revelation and inside information, and understanding of My Word. They will do exploits, miracles, signs, and wonders will follow them because the miracles, signs, and wonders, will recognize the obedient love to the Father. They will begin to run them down, not just with the temporary blessings of this temporary world, but eternal blesses shall begin to abound. Signs, wonders, and gifts will begin to flow from them as easily as My words fall from their hearts. The rivers will begin to overflow and break the boundaries that have been kept on the inside of them and many shall be swept in in the days ahead, swept in because of My glory, and the fear of the Lord. The comfort of the Holy Spirit and the fear of the Lord will cause many to come into My kingdom in the days that are ahead. Those who have diligently sought My face pass by the priest who sing their praise and passes by every obstacle, trial, and tribulation, to get to the place to hear My voice. They will receive the great and mighty gifts, blessings, and treasures untold and they are more than you can account for more than you understand, more than you will ever know. Because this world system cannot compute what I Am about to do inside of you. As you begin to press in and keep pressing in more to know Me. Great miracles, wonders, and signs shall follow, you says the Lord.

"And they went out and preached everywhere, while the Lord kept working with them and confirming the message by the attesting signs and miracles that closely accompanied [it]. Amen (so be it)." (Mark 16:20)

"But without faith it is impossible to please and be satisfactory to Him. For whoever would come near to God must [necessarily] believe that God exists and that He is the rewarder of those who earnestly and diligently seek Him [out]." (Hebrews 11:6)

"And there shall be stability in your times, an abundance of salvation, wisdom, and knowledge; the reverent fear and worship of the Lord is your treasure and His." (Isaiah 33:6)

I Am getting ready to reveal a new level of My Glory. The Glory that you have not seen or experienced before but all this time I have been preparing you so that you will not be destroyed by My Glory.

Good morning,

I Am getting ready to reveal a new level of My Glory. The Glory that you have not seen or experienced before but all this time I have been preparing you so that you will not be destroyed by My Glory. I order for you to stand and receive all that is in My Glory. For when I show you My Glory, you will experience every gift of My Spirit that I have given mankind to walk in. You will grow by leaps and bounds in understanding, wisdom, and insight. They will be distributed among My people so that in the last days you could do the mighty and greater, much greater than the former. That is what My Glory will bring so you must be prepared. I have been washing, purging, purifying, and sanctifying My children so that I might reveal more of My Glory for My Glory is so awesome. I Am so weighty, so powerful, so far beyond anything you could ever perceive or understand and I have been bringing you by this way so that you might be able to move and be engaged under My Glory. And so I Am harkening unto the prayers of my children and I have heard the cries from this generation. I hear you saying, "Show me, show me Your Glory". I have heard the cries of those who want to walk in the power of Elijah and Elisha. I Am responding as you are being sanctified, holy, and prepared for My Glory. My Glory can cause fear and reverence or unholiness which will cause that one to be consumed by My presence. I Am Holy and so must My people be holy. I will come and you will see and walk in Glory now in this present time. Greater power, wisdom, giftings, and understanding will enable you to fulfill your purpose while enjoying new levels of intimacy with Me. You will know.

"For it is written, You shall be holy, for I am holy." (1 Peter 1:16)

"For the Lord gives skillful and godly Wisdom; from His mouth come knowledge and understanding." (Pro. 2:6)

"The eyes of the Lord are toward the [uncompromisingly] righteous and His ears are open to their cry." (Ps. 34:15)

I Am filling you with more. I Am causing that deep chasm of your heart to be filled to overflowing.

Good morning,

I Am filling you with more. I Am causing that deep chasm of your heart to be filled to overflowing. Those who have sought me in the deep places and that is not only to those who are mature in Me but for those who are immature, who have felt pushed down who have been oppressed by the enemy. I Am causing splashes of wonder to come into your eye gaze, in your ear gates, for you to begin to see who I Am. I Am a Father that loves, I Am a teacher who teaches and never stops. I Am One who walks along beside you to see to it. I Am the one who causes your heart to be filled with great awe and wonder even when the enemy has tried to deplete you of who I Am. I Am here constantly filling you. I will never never, leave you. Even those who have been cast down, I Am lifting up. I Am the lifter of all your soul. For those who are high, I continue to lift higher and for those who are lower, I lift them up higher. There is nothing that you have done, nothing that you have not done that will cause Me to turn away from you. So I say, come back. Come back from that place of discontentment and I will fill your hearts with wonder. You will know me in a deeper way, in a way that you did not know me in times past. You will understand me better, where I will even cause you to have a great mind of understanding, a heart of understanding.

For the seasons that we are in, they are the times of the end and I Am causing such a push and such a flow of My anointing to rest upon My children. I Am causing things that were once in the dark to come to the light because of the times. So I Am enlightening your heart and your mind. It is not because of who you are but it is because I Am faithful, trustworthy and I Am dependable. I know that you have asked Me, I know that you have sought Me. I know that you have depended upon Me to the limit and the capacity that you know how to and I Am meeting you right now where you are to bring you up higher to cause you to know Me greatly. I will not forsake you nor leave you without help. I Am coming now to cause you to see the splashes of wonder as you know Me. Insight and understanding, like a flicker you will know and then you will seek after Me. I will place hunger and thirst with desperation on the inside of those who are My own. So receive everything that I have given you, I have brought you to this place of desperation. The enemy tried to use it to destroy you but I have brought you to this place of desperation so that I could fill you to overflowing with Me. It is all in My time and My plan.

"For I know the thoughts and plans that I have for you, says the Lord, thoughts and plans for welfare and peace and not for evil, to give you hope in your final outcome." (Jer. 29:11)

"And [I pray] that the eyes of your heart [the very center and core of your being] may be enlightened [flooded with light by the Holy Spirit], so that you will know and cherish the hope [the divine guarantee, the confident expectation] to which He has called you, the riches of His glorious inheritance in the saints (God’s people)," (Eph. 1:18)

“I love those who love me; And those who seek me early and diligently will find me." (Pro. 8:17)

Good morning,

I have called every one of My people to learn how to wait on Me. For those who wait on Me, something supernatural happens in their lives, in their body, in their mind, and in their heart says the Lord. I cause strength for those who are weak, wisdom, insight, and understanding for those who seek and wait on Me. They shall rise as eagles with wings on high. I will renew their strength, they shall become stronger than ever before and I will cause them to know the way that I Am bringing them, there will be straight paths for their feet. This is the time and the season for those who wait on me because I am about to do a great thing on the inside of you that will surmount anything that the enemy has brought against you. You will be able to stand and walk upon the forces of darkness and still proclaim and claim My promises for you know that I am faithful. I have proven Myself faithful to you over and over again. Do not be worried, fearful, or stressed by the things that you are encountering. Yes, the enemy has launched an assault, an attack against My people. He has used weapons that maybe you have never seen before, but I know them all says the Lord. I Am a warrior and I have defeated each and every one of them. Trust Me, I can be depended on. I will never leave you, never forsake you, never give you up, I will never! I will bring you all the way to the end, to the finish line where you will receive the great reward, the glory that is waiting on those who do My work, who do My will. So do not give up, hold on to my promises. I Am trustworthy, and every promise I have given you is a yes and Amen. That means nothing, no one, no force against you can stop the promises that I have spoken to you. Everything that I have said to you, watch and see, I Am doing it right now. Open your eyes, look upon high, your Father will not fail you. I Am riding on the clouds of glory, to bring everything that I said I would do. I Am your everlasting Father, your eternal God, and I will do exactly what I said, I have created, I have destroyed, I have devastated, and I have brought to life, I Am that same God. I Am past finding out and mysterious in My way of bringing it to pass. Yet know that I can do all things, and there is nothing too hard or difficult for Me. Watch your Father and be amazed, not astounded at the enemy but be amazed at the works that I Am doing for I Am doing great things, in you and for you!

"Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord." (Ps. 27:14)

"Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding. He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint." (Is. 40:28-31)

"That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the Lord, and there is none else. I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things." (Is. 45:6-7)

Good morning,

I saw the Lord get up from the throne and it was if He was turning, His shadow was moving, and He was turning the corner and all eyes that were upon Him, as He turned they followed Him to greater light and greater appointment in their destiny. Those that did not keep their eyes on Him, they stumbled and they fell into an abyss, a place of darkness, but all who had their gaze firmly fixed on Him as he got up to make a turn, a change, they walked into greater depths. Greater understanding, greater revelation and insight for all who fixed their eyes, and then the light just got brighter and brighter all around them and through them. The light just begin to emit from their beings; their whole being became just aglow and as they followed him they began to glow into the dark places. And because they followed Him and their eyes were fixed on Him the darkness that they encountered became lighter.

Hear Me; For I Am the only one who is stable and fixed, I Am the firm foundation, if you would hold on to Me just as in moments of deep intimate worship in your life, there is a change. There will be an alteration, you will change, there is something that shifts in your atmosphere that changes your environment. As you keep your eyes stayed on Me, you will be able to remain steady and fixed. In fact, as you do so the level of worship in you became higher, the level of praise takes another step up to Me, you will encounter a place where you will be lost in Me. And that is where I Am calling My people to, that place where they lose themselves in Me and they depend only on My voice, only on My presence, only on the way that I move. They follow every step, every encounter, every word that I say, they hang on My every word. And as My people who are sitting in the shift will refuse to move, refuse to go astray, they will encounter greater levels of understanding, insight, and depth of Me. They will know what others have cried to know for generations, they will know Me, really know Me. So do not look to your left or to your right, this is the time to have a determined fixed gaze on Me. Then you will not be confused and you will not be moved. You will encounter Me and you will know Me. That is what I do in you in these moments of deep worship, if you keep your eyes on Me.

"My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh." (Pro. 4:20-22)

"For God Who said, Let light shine out of darkness, has shone in our hearts so as [to beam forth] the Light for the illumination of the knowledge of the majesty and glory of God [as it is manifest in the Person and is revealed] in the face of Jesus Christ (the Messiah). However, we possess this precious treasure [the divine Light of the Gospel] in [frail, human] vessels of earth, that the grandeur and exceeding greatness of the power may be shown to be from God and not from ourselves." (2 Corin. 4:6-7)

"Therefore My people shall know what My name is and what it means; therefore they shall know in that day that I am He who speaks; behold, I Am!" (Is. 52:6)

Good morning,

Trust me. Just trust me. Joseph learned to trust Me even as he went through the things that he endured in his life. He knew My heart, he knew My call but he did not know the way to the end. Yet, my plan was good. So I say trust Me, even when you do not know exactly what is going on, I Am working those things out for you, for your good. I know the end from the beginning, I Am the divine designer of every plan for you. I have not messed up, I have not misstepped, I Am steady and I Am faithful even now says the Lord when things seem so cloudy. Think about My servants, think about how they had to learn to lean upon Me and not trust their own understanding, nor their insight, nor their own wisdom but they leaned on Me. There are times that you do not know what to do, that is when you must lean on Me for I know, I know the way. I know how to get you there with the least amount of attacks from the enemy, I know says the Lord. But it is when you run from the shelter, the secret place that you come under assault and attack from the enemy, but as long as you stay in a hidden place, where I Am working things out. Trusting Me, looking to Me as a child does to their Father, knowing that I have nothing but your highest interest in My heart. There is nothing that you are going through that I have not allowed already for the perfecting of you, some are hard to bear I know, but just like Joseph, I will deliver you from the pit. It is all about you growing up, maturing, and being strong and being steady. I will not let you fail, I will not let you fall, I will uphold you by My right hand of justice, I will not let go. Stay steady and stay strong for this is the season of testing and blessing for My children but your eyes must be on Me, not on celebrities, not on man, not even on those that are well known in My camp. Keep your eyes on Me for I Am the way and I will lead you in the way everlasting, I will not let you fail.

"As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that you may grow thereby: If so be you have tasted that the Lord is gracious" (1 Peter 2:2-3)
"You will show me the path of life: in your presence is fulness of joy; at your right hand there are pleasures for evermore." (Ps. 16:11)
"Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet fine, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all My pleasure." (Is. 46:10)
