 I have a few in my house that have not bowed their knee to Baal. I have a few in my house, that are standing strong their roots are deep The enemy a long time ago, came into my house and sowed tares in the midst of My wheat seeds. And I have allowed them to grow together and even my people have a hard time distinguishing the difference between the wheat and the tare, but I know says the LORD.

 
Good morning,
 
    I have a few in my house that have not bowed their knee to Baal. I have a few in my house, that are standing strong, their roots are deep. The enemy a long time ago, came into my house and sowed tares in the midst of My wheat seeds and I have allowed them to grow together and even my people have a hard time distinguishing the difference between the wheat and the tare, but I know says the LORD.  At the time of harvest, I will come and separate.  For I Am pruning those that are truly Mine and they are becoming sharper, wiser, and more sensitive in the things of the Spirit. The tares are beginning to get stronger too, they are trying through the enemy to thwart My purpose because the season is short.  Those who will stand strong for Me and in Me and with Me, they will grow stronger still and their end will be better than beginning. A noticeable difference, for you will begin to discern those who are for Me. You will know, truly your brother and your sister, those who labor with you and have one heart for Me and the kingdom. For the time is at hand and I will come and I will separate and I will burn those that are tares. I will cause the wheat to grow stronger and still be coming to My house and they shall begin to feed many in the time ahead. I Am even now placing a transfer in your life to be able to supply to many. I have prepared ahead so allow all things for your maturing. Mature wheat! The heart of man I see and I recognize what I placed within you for the days ahead, you My child will shine. So keep your eyes looking right on, not to the left, nor to the right. Run diligently with Me for Our season is at hand. I love you. I Am keeping you, and I Am watching, stay strong in Me.
 
    "But while he was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed also darnel (weeds resembling wheat) among the wheat, and went on his way. So when the plants sprouted and formed grain, the darnel (weeds) appeared also. And the servants of the owner came to him and said, Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? Then how does it have darnel shoots in it? He replied to them, An enemy has done this. The servants said to him, Then do you want us to go and weed them out? But he said, No, lest in gathering the wild wheat (weeds resembling wheat), you root up the [true] wheat along with it. Let them grow together until the harvest; and at harvest time I will say to the reapers, Gather the darnel first and bind it in bundles to be burned, but gather the wheat into my granary." (Matt. 13:25-30)
 
    "Now also we beseech you, brethren, get to know those who labor among you [recognize them for what they are, acknowledge and appreciate and respect them all]—your leaders who are over you in the Lord and those who warn and kindly reprove and exhort you. (1 Thess. 5:12)
 
    "Let your eyes look right on [with fixed purpose], and let your gaze be straight before you. Consider well the path of your feet, and let all your ways be established and ordered aright. Turn not aside to the right hand or to the left; remove your foot from evil." (Pro. 4:25-27)

The refining process has intensified in, and, for My House.  I Am stirring the pot to cause to come to the surface all of the impure metals that have stayed in your heart, hidden from the cleansing power of My Word.

Good morning,
 
    The refining process has intensified in, and, for My House.  I Am stirring the pot to cause to come to the surface all of the impure metals that have stayed in your heart, hidden from the cleansing power of My Word.  This process will begin to reveal to you those hidden and coveted issues of your own heart.  The reason is always to make you a vessel of purity, never to make you feel condemned, as some think and even say of Me and those who will boldly declare My truth.  The enemy is an expert at misinterpretation and cunning when it comes to using words to ensnare and lead astray.  As you well know, words can kill or they can give life.  Listen to My Words now, know that I Am shaking My House in order to separate the pure from the impure, the wheat from the chaff, the sheep from the goats.  The great divide has begun, so now is the time for your life to resemble the holy standard that I alone established.  Yes, I know those who are Mine, but you must know those who are Mine also.  Family should know their own family.  For by their fruit you will know them, do not be deceived by their great boasting words or their flamboyant displays of power.  My people will adhere to My Word, they will not try to twist My Words to accommodate their twisted lifestyle.  My people will live a holy life, not just make vague references to it.  Only follow those who follow My Word, for I have told you before that many false prophets and teachers are in the midst, leading and deceiving others to go astray off of the narrow way.  Teaching, and taking great pleasure in those who follow their examples, they are wolves in the flock.  This is the time for cleaving to the Lover of your soul and a time for great discerning, which can only come from intimate times spent with Me in the secret place.  You will see a great falling away of some who have known Me but do not be dismayed, these things must come to pass.  I Am coming for a Church without spot or blemish.  Now, begins the purification of silver and gold, precious metals that endure great heat in order to become the purest.  Once the purification is done there is a small amount of pure metal that is found.  I will have My holy remnant.  I will have a chaste Bride.  I will have a clean House.  You be holy even as I, your God Am holy and perfect!  Keep looking to Me and you will see that My grace will make you all that I have promised that you will be.  It is not by might, not by power, but by My Spirit says your God and Lord.
 
    "… Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit [of whom the oil is a symbol],’ says the Lord of hosts." (Zech. 4:6)
 
    "Beware of the false prophets, [teachers] who come to you dressed as sheep [appearing gentle and innocent], but inwardly are ravenous wolves. By their fruit you will recognize them [that is, by their contrived doctrine and self-focus]. Do people pick grapes from thorn bushes or figs from thistles?  Even so, every healthy tree bears good fruit, but the unhealthy tree bears bad fruit." (Matt. 7:15-17)
 
    "And you shall be holy to Me; for I the Lord am holy, and have separated you from the peoples, that you should be Mine." (Lev. 20:26)
 
    "..so that He might sanctify the church, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word [of God], so that [in turn] He might present the church to Himself in glorious splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that she would be holy [set apart for God] and blameless." (Eph. 5:26-27)

There is nothing known or unknown that has power over My Word.  Every temptation, testing, trial, every snare, every trap that the enemy has laid before you, none hold more power than My Word.  

 
Good morning,
 
    There is nothing known or unknown that has power over My Word.  Every temptation, testing, trial, every snare, every trap that the enemy has laid before you, none hold more power than My Word.   Some of these things you are aware of, others you are walking straight into, know that I Am your Way.  I Am a good Father and I send help from on high.  Hearken to the voice of the ones that I send to speak to you and open greater doors.  
    Look not to the circumstances, look not at whether they are good or indifferent, look not to the circumstances, look only to My word.  For the enemy is a deceiver and he has gone out amongst My people to try to bring the deception into their hearts and into their minds.  He is twisting the very things, even those things that are bad to look good and those things that are even good to look bad.  I Am bringing discernment, a great discernment upon My people so that they can hear, know and walk through these times of testings or temptation, snares, and wicked devices that the enemy has placed  
against My children so that you can soar over them and not be caught up in them.  
    For the great separation has come and I have taken My sickle from heaven, and I have begun to set apart the wheat from the tare.  I know those that are mine and I discern those who are of the deceiver.  I have begun to separate the sheep nations from those that are goats so that My people might know.  I said to know those who labor among you because of the fruit.  Look at the fruit, look at what they are producing.  Do not look at the things that are going on around you look at the fruit that is being produced in you as well. I Am doing a great work in you.  No matter what is laid before you I say test it by the fruit and by My word.  Understand I Am speaking to My children, do not be deceived, a spirit of deception has crept in.  Stand up and discern.  I have placed and given you a spirit of discernment, it is strong on the inside of you even now.  Use it, exercise, yield yourself to the Spirit of the Living God and you will know and when I come I will find you winning, I will find you waiting, I will find you prepared and full of faith says the Lord.  Use what I have given you, every weapon that I have given you against the weapons of the enemy, they are the most powerful things given to mankind so that you can soar and be strong and victorious.  Do not lay down the power that I have given you to usurp the authority of the enemy.  You are more powerful than you will ever know as you yield yourself to the gifts and the great blessings and the weapons that I have placed on the inside of you.  Use them and yield yourself to them.
 
    "Since we consider and look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen; for the things that are visible are temporal (brief and fleeting), but the things that are invisible are deathless and everlasting." (2 Corin. 4:18)
 
    "Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn." (Matt. 13:30)
 
    "Behold! I have given you authority and power to trample upon serpents and scorpions, and [physical and mental strength and ability] over all the power that the enemy [possesses]; and nothing shall in any way harm you." (Luke 10:19)

A humble man or woman I will not despise.  I will lift them up to heights unknown, but the proud I resist.

 
Good morning,
 
    A humble man or woman I will not despise.  I will lift them up to heights unknown, but the proud I resist.  Those who stand in their own might, in their own wisdom, in their own strength, I Am not pleased with.  The humble recognize they need Me, and depend upon My help.  I will come along beside them and hold them up, they will stand when the arrogant and proud fall.  This is the season that you will see My great hand upon the humble. 
    Know that there is a season of a great falling away.  Many of those who called upon My name, they will not run with Me any longer, for they will not recognize that I have shifted.  They will not understand that I have shifted into a new gear that is taking My children to another place, another dimension, where they see Me, hear Me, and understand Me.  They have become hard of seeing and hearing, they are still bound in those ways of their own making, bound in their flesh, bound in their minds and I Am now calling My children up higher.  Calling them to a place where they rest in My power, My ability, My might, and My grace, knowing Me for who I Am.  Not falling into ways carved by pride, lack of wisdom, and lack of hunger and desperation for My ways.  I push against pride, I stand against pride for pride caused My angels to fall.  Pride is foolish and deceitful, it carries you down to the pit of hell, but the humble are those who recognize their only strength is in Me.  They will rise up, I will exalt them and stretch their borders and lengthen their stakes.
    This is the day that separation is coming to My house.  Understand that it has already begun.  Some have stood and looked and understood what is happening, but the separation has begun, sheep from goat, wheat from tare.  I have allowed the growing of these things together but now, says the Lord, I Am coming for My Bride.  My bride is being washed without spot or wrinkle, My bride who is separate, holy unto Me, she looks different, talks different, she responds differently.  I Am coming, says the Lord, I am coming for My church, and My church, My true church, My remnant church they are being prepared, being made ready.  They are hungry and thirsty, they recognize everything going on around about them but they march on.  The darkness that has come on the earth doesn't make them stubble, for they knew this day would come.  They are shining brighter, their light is not growing dim in the midst of darkness, they burn on, they march on because they recognize nothing can hinder them, nothing can stop them.  For this is what they have been called to and the desperation in their hearts is because they want to come home and be with Me and I Am making way and making plans for that to happen soon.  So prepare your hearts and your minds, stand firm, stand ready, stand watchful and be ever ready.  For no man knows the hour nor the moment that I shall crack that sky so I call My children to be ever ready.  Be ever ready, says the Lord, for I love you and I have prepared a place for you, and I Am ready.  For I delight in My children, those who are My own, they will never forsake Me nor turn their eyes to another lover, they are faithful to Me, and I Am faithful too.
 
    "All the nations will be gathered before Him [for judgment]; and He will separate them from one another, as a shepherd separates his sheep from the goats;  and He will put the sheep on His right [the place of honor], and the goats on His left [the place of rejection].  “Then the King will say to those on His right, ‘Come, you blessed of My Father [you favored of God, appointed to eternal salvation], inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world." (Matt. 25:32-34)
 
    "For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the Lord shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee." (Is. 60:2)
 
    "But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble." (James 4:6)
 
    "So that [in turn] He might present the church to Himself in glorious splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that she would be holy [set apart for God] and blameless." (Eph. 5:27)

 My people are asking what “am I” doing in the midst of this pandemic?  Many are asking where “am I” in the midst of this?

Good Morning,
 
     My people are asking what "am I" doing in the midst of this pandemic?  Many are asking where "am I" in the midst of this?  I Am where I always Am, I Am right in the midst, I Am the same deliverer and preserver.  In this time and in this season that you are in, I have allowed the wheat and the tare to grow together.  I have allowed the sheep and the goat to feed together and now in the midst of this I am separating.  I Am separating the wheat from the tare, I Am separating the sheep from the goat by My spirit.  I Am making a difference between those who are Mine and those who are not.  Those who are Mine, they are beginning to burn even brighter.  Like the city on a hill, their light is becoming extreme.  Their light is causing many to turn and see that there is a difference between those who are  completely mine and those who have been in My house who have not been faithful to Me.  So hold on to My hands, and do not change, for I am unchanging.  Do not alter your stand for Me, for as you stand strongly with Me and for Me, I will see to it that you are overcomers.  I will bring to your hands all that I have laid up for you.  Those hidden riches in secret places that I have kept for you will be given.  Because of your faithfulness you will abound in many areas, not only in the prosperity of this world, but in the spiritual richness that I placed on the inside of you.  It will come from you, flowing freely because you have sat and basked in the beauty of your Father.  You have stayed in My presence in the midst of diverse trials and tribulations, you remained faithful.  I will crown you with beauty and glory that this world has never seen.  You will be different, unique, do not try to be like everybody else for I have caused that separation to come.  Be bold, be strong, be courageous and shine brightly for the world needs the light that is being pulled forth from you during the dark hours of life.  Do not put out the light on the inside of you, let it shine forth brightly.  Follow Me, I will show you the way during this season.  Stay close, every step that I take, take the same steps, do not try to get ahead of Me, neither lag behind Me.  I never forsake My own, never, in the midst of every famine and every plague, I have always protected, preserved and prospered My own, so that they would know Me as all that they need.  I Am Jehovah-Jireh, the Lord who sees and provides.
 
     "Lord, you are my secret hiding place, protecting me from these troubles, surrounding me with songs of gladness!  Your joyous shouts of rescue release my breakthrough." (Ps. 32:7)
 
     "You shall also be [so beautiful and prosperous as to be thought of as] a crown of glory and honor in the hand of the Lord, and a royal diadem [exceedingly beautiful] in the hand of your God." (Is. 62:3)
 
     "You are the light of the world.  A city set on a hill cannot be hidden.  Nor do men light a lamp and put it under a peck measure, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all in the house.  Let your light so shine before men that they may see your moral excellence and your praiseworthy, noble, and good deeds and recognize and honor and praise and deeds and glorify your Father Who is in heaven. (Matt. 5:14-16)

 There is a storm that is coming, and the winds that will accompany this storm will have diverse affects.  For those who have stood on My Word

  Grass-tips-wind-grey-sky-768x480
 
Good Morning,
 
     There is a storm that is coming, and the winds that will accompany this storm will have diverse affects.  For those who have stood on My Word and refuse to compromise my Word, this storm will be used to blow you back on course.  Many who have slipped or taken missteps will be rectified by the power of the winds that will issue forth.  For those who have been hardhearted and stiff necked and would not obey Me, they will find My Word harder to accept and understand, they will begin to slide back from Me and My truth.  Yet, I will still keep calling you back and wooing you, for My tender mercies and My long-suffering are in pursuit of the backslider.  I desire you to come back and be faithful to the True Lover.  You have spent endless hours and days trying to make yourself happy.  By now you should know that I Am the only real joy.  The great deceiver has spent energy and time to try and make you believe the lie that your happiness depends on others and outward circumstances.
     Many who seek My face on a daily basis know the season and can perceive in their inner selves that they must redeem the time.  They are walking with purpose and pursuing My will and having no part with the deeds of darkness.  Truth, My Truth has been distorted by heresies and teachings that are only half truths.  I Am raising up those who have My heart and I will give to them My voice.  They will move in a new arena of signs and wonders, that will shake up the "religious" world, yet these signs will come to approve My Word that was spoken.  There will come a divide, because the enemy has come in secretly and sown tares in My field.  I have allowed the tares to grow together with My wheat, so as not to destroy My wheat.  I Am the husbandman of My field and My garden, and I Am about to call for the reapers to separate the two. The winds of distinction are beginning to blow.
     Let your ears be attentive to My voice and your eyes open to the changes that I Am doing on the inside of you, My garden.  I have raised you up to be able to bring a fresh aroma to a world that is wafting in the midst of the smell of degradation and sin.  I have placed rare and unique fruits and plants in My garden, you are one of these.  You are not like everyone, don't try to be either.  Those who attend to My Word are consistently washed and kept pure from the storm of destruction.  I will blow and their strong aroma of faith and love will begin to change their course.  So stay rooted and grounded and you will be gently directed to the course that I place you on.  The winds will be strong enough to shift you onto the right path if you have halted between two opinions.  Those whose choice is to walk in the name of the Lord of Hosts, I will assemble the lame, and all those that have been afflicted by choosing righteousness.  I will make the lame a remnant, and the afflicted and those who were rejected, will become a strong nation.  Even now I Am turning your captivity, and I bring you acclaim, acknowledgment, and distinction in every territory where there was shame.  This is Our hour to shine!
     "You will also decide and decree a thing, and it will be established for you; And the light [of God’s favor] will shine upon your ways." (Job 22:28)
     "So remember the heights from which you have fallen, and repent [change your inner self—your old way of thinking, your sinful behavior—seek God’s will] and do the works you did at first [when you first knew Me]; otherwise, I will visit you and remove your lampstand (the church, its impact) from its place—unless you repent." (Rev. 2:5)
     "In that day,” says the LordI shall assemble the lame, And gather the outcasts [from foreign captivity], I shall make the lame a [godly] remnant. And the outcasts a strong nation; And the Lord shall reign over them in Mount Zion from this time on and forever." (Micah 4:6-7)
     "Let them grow together until the harvest; and at harvest time I will tell the reapers, “First gather the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; but gather the wheat into my barn.” (Matt. 13:30)

 I know you says the Lord.  I know you more intimately than anyone else has ever dared to know you, and I know the enemy has desired to sift you as wheat.

Good morning
 
     I know you says the Lord.  I know you more intimately than anyone else has ever dared to know you, and I know the enemy has desired to sift you as wheat.  But I have prayed for you, and because I stand as the intercessor of your soul, know that there is no weapon, there is nothing that is formed against you that shall ever prosper.  I have seen your tears, yes, and know that weeping may endure for a night but joy, joy comes in the morning, and you have read in My word that they who sow in tears they shall reap in joy.  Joy is coming to you.  There is about to be a turnover for you, for I have taken the tears that you have cried and I have taken them and put them in My precious bottle.  There is a reason why I put them there, it is so that they can turn over for you into a harvest of joy.  I will multiply back to you with every tear that you sowed as you prayed and sought My face in those times through difficult seasons.  I Am bringing you out says the Lord, for I know the way to bring My bride out, I will cause the enemy to be astounded.  I Am bringing you out and those things that have been crushed in you through the wilderness years, I Am using them as a sweet smelling savor.  It will become the perfume that will turn many back to Me says the Lord. Because the enemy desired to sift you I have taken the sifting and the things that he tried to place upon you for destruction and turned them for your good and now I have placed you high above your brethren.  This anointing shall rest upon you all the days of your life and you shall be extraordinarily different and unique in My kingdom says the Lord.  Many shall come because of the fragrance, because of the crushing that has come, many shall come.  Do you not understand that the crushing of the wheat brings more, makes more, and multiplies more in My hand?  So even though the enemy sought to destroy you, he pushed you into more says the Lord.  My hands touching those things that he desired to destroy, I multiplied into goodness, because everything that he meant for your evil I have turned around for your good.  
     This is the season and the harvest of good.  A joy is about to be released in you that you have never felt or experienced, it has been welling up on the inside of you.  Mixed with tears now joy shall burst forth like a river of clarity flowing into your life.  You will find the pleasure that I have for you and in you.  You will walk in it, and every place you go people will almost be infected by that joy that will exude from you, this is a turnover for you.  Do you understand everything has brought you to this place and to this moment and now your faithfulness to Me will abound in goodness?  You will see and understand that there is a sweet smell that I have been busy uncovering in you, that many have been longing for and needing. Yes, you had to go through, the sifting was a necessary journey to make you able to stand.  I have said in My word, even though you walk through the valley of the shadow of death, fear no evil for there, even there I Am with you.  I am opening my most costly anointing, you.  Even in the dark times I was there, when no one else could be found, I was there.  I Am your faithful Father, the lover of your soul, the keeper of all your tears, and I know what you have gone through and I have been with you every step of the way.  Just know you will walk in your deliverance, walk in your wholeness, your head will be held high and there will be none like you who can stand the beauty that I have placed upon you and the sweet smell that shall come forth from you will intoxicate others into joy.  That is My seal of approval being placed upon you.  I Am not through or done with those things that I Am bringing forth from you. You have not begun to see what great things are in you but get ready, get ready for I am opening up that seal, let it fill the earth.
 
     "But thanks be to God, Who in Christ always leads us in triumph [as trophies of Christ’s victory] and through us spreads and makes evident the fragrance of the knowledge of God everywhere, For we are the sweet fragrance of Christ [which exhales] unto God, [discernible alike] among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing:" (2 Corin. 2:14-15)
     "For His anger is but for a moment, but His favor is for a lifetime or in His favor is life.  Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning." (Ps. 30:5)

I Am separating the wheat from the tare and those who stand with Me and remain faithful to My Word.  There will be such an anointing upon those who stand.  Fruit shall abound in their households,

 
Good morning,
 
     I Am separating the wheat from the tare and those who stand with Me and remain faithful to My Word.  There will be such an anointing upon those who stand.  Fruit shall abound in their households, more and better fruit in their hearts, in their minds, and evident in their lives.  Because they are trees planted by the rivers of living water, they receive the water of the Word easier.  They continue to stay hungry and thirsty, many shall come to see what is keeping them fed. They shall rest and come to know Me as the Lord who sees and provides, because they have chosen the good thing, sitting at My feet.  They stand tall knowing that I the Lord their God have made promises to them and I will not and I cannot lie, and My answer to you is yes and amen.  
     You have asked me once and again, "God what are you doing?"  I Am telling you, I Am making you more like Me.  You are getting to know Me as a good Father, who is trustworthy.  It is going beyond hearsay from others, it has become more intimate knowledge.  You see that it goes beyond the momentary and temporary things, you are seeing from the eyes of an eternal being.  You will always be supplied with plenty, you shall have enough to give without fear of want, you will step over easily into My overflow. You will see that it is far more than money, but prosperity for the whole of your living.  I Am faithful to bless those who are faithful with all that they are stewards over, spirit, soul, and body.  Faithful men abound with blessings, so get ready for harvest in every area.  Whatever is empty, whatever has been void I have set the stage to cause you to abound with blessings.  You thought it was the enemy trying to steal from you, but I was emptying those troughs, emptying those fields, I was emptying those places so that I could place My seed that always produces after its kind.  I had to rid My garden of the weeds that was keeping the fruit from reaching its full maturity.  I know what is good for you, I Am a great father, provider, counselor, friend, one who walks beside you.  I Am taking good care of you.  I will see to you, and everything that concerns you says the Lord.  Know that those things that have been burned away they were not like Me, but know that I will replenish your ground with the good, the righteous, and the holy, and you shall be stronger in Me. 
 
     "The Lord will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O Lord, endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands." (Ps. 138:8)
     "A faithful (right-minded) man will abound with blessings, But he who hurries to be rich will not go unpunished." (Prov. 28:20)
     "Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in every way and [that your body] may keep well, even as [I know] your soul keeps well and prospers." (3 John 1:2)
