Good morning,

 

   Take heed My people, My church, and change your ways.  It is time to repent of your lethargic ways and embrace Mine.  You have neglected to love one another and the enemy has sown bitterness and resentment towards each other.  If you will begin to allow My Word to be seated on the throne of your heart then you will have courage and faith to deal with these faults with a decisive mind.  Do not let pride hide the weaknesses that I Am bringing to the surface of your heart, so that you may be healed and delivered.  This is the wicked way of the enemy, to sow tares of deceit and pride.  Now is the time to come under the power of My word for the enemy is sending a strong delusion in order to get My people to believe a lying deceitful spirit.  Do not stop in your pursuit of My love.  I have spoken before and now is the time when the love of many will wax cold, in My house.  This sin is rampant in My house and I Am saying, "enough."  "Clean, clean the temple must be clean."  I want your character and personality to be lovely, and worthy of My Bride.  I will not keep silent until your righteousness shines like a bright torch.  I will not be still until this world is blinded by the beauty and power of "Our" glory.  Some of the beauty that you had in the beginning when your love for Me was fresh and new, has been marred.  For a long time, I have been calling My people to the place of holiness, purging by the washing of My Word.  This is the beauty that I desire and long to see in you.  A dedicated devotion is needed to cause you to keep your eyes only on Me.  I rebuke and chasten those who I love and those who are My own.

    The season of suffering and difficulties I have used to bring out the best in you and to rid you of the refuse.  You must take hold of my grace, it is the ability that you need in order to excel.  Do not become weary in doing My word and keeping My Word, for I will impart to you a double portion of anointing and strength.  Take no stock in your reputation or in what you may have done up until now, for a fresh and new way has come to you.  True humility!  It requires a new level of trusting in Me.  Preparations are being made for you, for I am ahead of you naming your steps before you arrive there.  The time of great war for your souls has come.  Prepare yourselves to endure hardships as soldiers, and do not be easily moved by the outer conditions.  Become stable inside and your outer man will follow.  In the past few years, I have begun to toughen you up, for many of My people were very soft.  Many have only had the milk of My word, feeding on all that delights the eyes and the ears.  Now it is high time for all to grow up spiritually.  I yearn for My people, My church to rise up and become the mature sons of God.  Many will not be able to stand in the days to come if their spiritual diet does not improve.  For man does not live by bread alone, but by every Word that proceeds from My mouth.

 

    "The nations will see your righteousness and vindication [by God] And all kings [will see] your glory; And you will be called by a new name which the mouth of the Lord will designate, you will also be [considered] a crown of glory and splendor in the hand of the Lord, And a royal diadem [exceedingly beautiful] in the hand of your God.  It will no longer be said of you [Judah], “Azubah (Abandoned),”Nor will it any longer be said of your land, “Shemamah (Desolate)”; But you will be called, “Hephzibah (My Delight is in Her),”And your land, “Married”; For the Lord delights in you, And to Him your land will be married [owned and protected by the Lord]." (Is. 62:2-4)

 

    "Because lawlessness is increased, the love of most people will grow cold.  But the one who endures and bears up [under suffering] to the end will be saved." (Matt. 24:12-13)

 

    "Take with me your share of hardship [passing through the difficulties which you are called to endure], like a good soldier of Christ Jesus.  No soldier in active service gets entangled in the [ordinary business] affairs of civilian life; [he avoids them] so that he may please the one who enlisted him to serve.  And if anyone competes as an athlete [in competitive games], he is not crowned [with the wreath of victory] unless he competes according to the rules." (2 Tim. 2:3-5)

 

Love,

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)

 

Love,

Good morning,

 

    Stand up and lift up your hands in total surrender to the great grace that is issuing forth from Heaven's portal.  I know that My people need extraordinary grace to walk in the demonstrations of the former and the latter rain.  I have scooped from the ashes all who desire to walk in this higher realm.   All this purifying and purging was needed in order for you to walk under My anointing and not in the power of your own being.  The fire was lit to burn away all dross and the remnants of idol gods and deadly thinking patterns and everything that had taken your attention from Me.  There will be grace, and you will know for sure that all that is being done, the signs, wonders, and miracles are under My covering of grace.

    You will be drawn deeper into the realms of My love.  I have set the stage for you to know My love that passes all understanding, while the enemy has set traps to cause some to be ensnared by fear, bitterness, hatred, anger, and many other spiritual forces that bring slow and certain death.  I Am saying you must fight the fight of faith and love.  Do the most impossible thing, run toward the giants of fear, bitterness, and all other opposing spiritual forces, and be fully loaded and armed with My Word.  You are after all giant slayers, crucifying all works of the flesh and every force that is behind them.  For all who are after My Spirit do imitate Me in all of my ways.  Now will come the crucial dividing line, those who are completely after My will, are distinguished because they will consistently do My Word, not looking at what is seen.  The whole world is awaiting the rising up of the true sons of God.  The enemy's lies seem more dominant, that is even a part of the deception.  If you will only do My Word more often, you will see that the Kingdom is the true powerhouse!  I have come once again to My garden and I Am inspecting your fruit, to see the growth that has taken place.  Yes, growth takes place for those whose roots go deep in My Word, no matter what goes on around them, no matter what season they are in.  In fact, that is when you step into the secret, safe sanctuary of your Father.  I have said, blessed are those who trust in Me and have made Me their hope and confidence.  They are like trees planted along a riverbank, with roots that reach deep into the water.  Such trees are not bothered by the heat or worried by long months of drought.  Their leaves stay green, and they never stop producing fruit!  You are those strong and steady oaks that the enemy has tried to take an axe to and uproot, but you have refused to be moved.  Yes, I have seen those whose conversation is always on Me.  Even when it was hard I heard you encourage your own self in Me, by bringing to memory My good record of faithfulness.  So now because you refuse to quit or give up, prepare to stand under the great waterfall of My grace, where your weaknesses will become your strength.  My ability will cover your inability.  The waters are about to overtake you and you will float in this great grace, because you, My co-laborers have no need to be ashamed!

 

    "Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is.  For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit." (Jer. 17:7-8)

 

    "There is no fear in love [dread does not exist], but full-grown (complete, perfect) love turns fear out of doors and expels every trace of terror!  For fear brings with it the thought of punishment, and [so] he who is afraid has not reached the full maturity of love [is not yet grown into love’s complete perfection."  (1 John 4:18)

 

    "And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work." (2 Corin. 9:8)

 

Love,

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)

 

Love,
