When God Swore

Is 50:4  …That I should know how to speak a word in season to him who is weary.

God knows exactly who needs a “word” in season.  God knows exactly who is weary, and He knows exactly “when” to speak a word to His people.  He never leaves us without a word that will feed us and sustain us.  God always has something to say to His people.  Glory!  We can always find a word to hold fast to in any season we may be in, whether we are “in season” or “out of season”.  It’s the “out of season” times that are the hardest for us.  God has promised us there will always be “seasons”, there will always be “seed time and harvest time, winter and summer, cold and heat shall not cease”.  No one can just live in the “in season”, we all go through the out of season times.  Without the “out of seasons” times there is no growth.   You can’t just have harvest all the time, because after you have reaped your harvest, there must be more planting, and/or preparation time so there can be another harvest.  So be encouraged that those out of season times many of you are experiencing are necessary for the next harvest in your life.

Many of you are in that spot of “out of season” and awaiting for that “in season” to come to play.  Your heart has been aching and crying out to God to see that “in season” come to pass, and all those words spoken over you to begin to manifest.  During your “out of season” you have been faithful.  You have been faithful to God’s word and commandments, you have been faithful in the little things as well as the big things, you have laboured in building the Kingdom of God, you have served, you have been obedient in all He has asked you to do.  All these things have been “planting” my friends.  All your labours have not been in vein, but on the contrary, God has seen every seed sown, and every labour you have made:

Hebrews 6:10  For God is not unjust to forget your work and labor of love which you have shown toward His name, in that you have ministered to the saints, and do minister.

I hear the Spirit of the Lord saying, that you have done well, and that He is pleased with you, keep your heart and mind set in Him confident of reaping His promises for your life… AND TO NOT GIVE UP BEFORE YOUR MIRACLE.  To not give up before you “in season” comes around again.  You can always be sure your in-season will come as sure as spring time and summer always come.  Stay the course that He has given you, stick to His word.  Literally…STICK to His word, don’t let go of it, don’t allow yourself to become discouraged before your miracle, before your harvest, before your releasing, as those are only tactics of the enemy to kill your harvest.  We are not to lose heart if we want to reap in due season, and due season my friends is coming. (Gal 6:9) Make His word the ultimate authority in your life and settle for nothing less!  Glory!

Galatians 6:9 (Phi trans)  “Let us not grow tired of doing good, for unless we throw in our hand (give up), the UTLIMATE HARVEST IS ASSURED.”

The harvest is assured my friends, as faith being the assurance of the outcome, and hope is what anchors our soul.  For Godly hope does not disappoint, but stays in faith and stays in patience, for it’s only by faith AND patience that we inherit the promises of God for our lives.  You never find faith without patience.

Hebrews 6:12 (Bas trans)  “that you do not become sluggish, but imitate those who through faith and long waiting (patience) inherit the promises.”

That long waiting my friends is our “out of season” time.  Oh, how hard it can seem to be!  But the good news is, God is not a liar over anything He has promised you, and He will not be mocked at His word.  Glory!  As a matter of fact God is so serious about His promises He has made to you, that He swore!  Yes, that’s right God swore about you.  He swore that His word is Truth, and that His word will manifest in your life, and will not return to Him void, for the purpose of souls, for global impact.

Hebrews 6:13 “For when God made a promise to Abraham, because He could SWEAR by no one greater, He SWORE, by Himself.”

What exactly did God swear about?  Well, He swore His word to Abraham, which is the same word for us.  In the amplified version we find God’s sworn promise in Gen 12:2:

“And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you with ABUNDANT INCREASE OF FAVORS, and I will make your name famous and distinguished, and you WILL be a blessing dispensing GOOD(S) TO OTHERS.  And I will bless those who bless you, and curse him who curses you, in you will ALL the families of the earth be blessed (global impact) and by you they will bless themselves….vs 7  …Then the Lord appeared to Abram and said, I WILL GIVE THIS LAND TO YOUR DESCENDANTS.”

This my friends is global impact.  This my friends is God’s promise of the harvest and of every word ever spoken over you, every promise God has given you.  For He has already given you the land.  And God is so serious about His plans for your life that He SWORE about it.  The word “swore” really hits home when you find out what it means:

Swore means:  the number seven, as the sacred FULL One, complete, seven times, declaring, declaration seven times, cause to happen, make to happen.

Glory, Glory, Glory!  When God says He is going to cause us to dispense multi-millions, multi billions of dollars worth of goods to the earth, to bless ALL the families of the earth, and when God says that He will make you, Church a great nation, that He will cause your name to be famous, and every little devil in hell will know your name, and when He makes promises of the ultimate harvests in your life, when He calls you rich, when He calls you healed, when He calls you into great and mighty anointings, mantles and callings, when He promises favor on your life in your work, with your boss, when He says He will do something in your life, when He has spoken giftings and light into you, when He says He will perform in your life, HE WILL DO IT, BECAUSE HE HAS SWORN IT SEVEN TIMES, HE IS GOING TO CAUSE IT TO HAPPEN, HE IS GOING TO MAKE IT HAPPEN, AND HE SWEARS IT SEVEN TIMES COMPLETE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  It’s a done deal baby!  Glory!  God cannot break His word!  Hallelujah!  For He has sworn it complete and He has already given you the land!

Our part on all this is to endure with faith patiently.  As it says in Hebrews 6:15 “And after he (Abe) had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.”  And we find that God is more determined to bless Abrahams descendants and that these promises are absolutely UN-CHANGABLE in verse 17-19:

Thus God determining to show MORE ABUNDANTLY to the heirs of promise the immutability (un-changeable) to the heirs of promise the immutability of His counsel, confirmed it by and oath, that by two immutable (un-changeable) things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we might have strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold of the hope set before us.  This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, and which enters the Presence behind the veil.”

My friends do not give up before your miracle!  Let hope anchor your soul (mind, will and emotions) to the word of God, to His promises and know that He will perform His word.  He swears it!

Step Up And Step Out

Child of Mine, this is the time and season to step up and to step out.
It is not a time and season for timidity, but for faith and obedience.
When the god of this world rages and makes a spectacle of himself, this
is not the time to cower in timidity. It is the time to fix your eyes
on Me to see only what I am doing. For when I move into a given
territory
to take it for My kingdom, the enemy also gathers his forces in the
same spot to oppose Me. That is the nature of a battle -- both sides
gather their forces and try to take a given territory. I do not cower
from the areas the enemy is actively moving in. Rather, I possess the
land I have chosen and I advance My kingdom. And I have chosen to work
through My servants to do this.

The enemy brings sickness and I bring healing. The enemy brings fear
and
I bring the perfect love that casts out all fear. The enemy brings
despair
and I bring hope. The enemy brings bondage and I bring freedom. And I
do these things through My body, the church.

So do not hold back in fear or trepidation. Rather, press forward
boldly
with Me. Fix your eyes on Me to see precisely what I am doing, for I
will empower you to do this with Me. I am not calling to fight
apart from Me, but rather in obedience and submission to My plan and
battle strategy. But I am calling you to fight. Do not move hold back
when I say go. Do not fear the battle, for I will make you victorious
as you walk in obedience to Me.

Know that this is the time and season where I am mobilizing My church
to accomplish My purposes in this world and to advance My kingdom.
Respond to Me and do what I am doing. Then I will cause My kingdom to
advance through you and you will be an overcomer and your joy will be
full and you will see My glory surround you.
 

Perfected Unto Maturity

Psalm 47:2 ~ "For the Lord most high is terrible; he is a great King over
all the earth."

Malachi 1:6 ~ "A son honoreth his father, and a servant his master: if then
I be a father, where is mine honor? And if I be a master, where is my fear?
saith the Lord of hosts unto you, O priests, that despise my name. And ye
say, Wherein have we despised thy name?"

2 Corinthians 5:11 ~ "Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade
men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest
in your consciences."

Luke 9:52-56 ~ "{52}And sent messengers before his <Jesus'> face: and they
went, and entered into a village of the Sa-mar-i-tans, to make ready for
him. {53}And they did not receive him, because his face was as though he
would go to Jerusalem. {54}And when his disciples James and John saw this,
they said, Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven,
and consume them, even as Eli-jah did? {55}But he turned, and rebuked them,
and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of. {56}For the Son of
man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them. And they went to
another village."

John 13:34-35 ~ "{34}A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one
another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. {35}By this
shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to
another."

1 John 3:2 ~ "Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet
appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall
be like him; for we shall see him as he is."

**************

A number of months ago, I saw in a vision four large angels standing at the
corners of the earth. Each angel had their arms up at chest level, palms
pushing outwards against what appeared to be a clear, flat surface
resembling glass. It appeared as if they were holding something back from
entering into the earth.

I looked past the clear, flat surface and saw hordes of demonic beings
pressing frantically and furiously against the other side of this surface.

Something caught my attention and I turned away from the demonic beings to
look into the inside of this flat surface. I was looking at the earth. I saw
a burning pillar of fire with the shape of a man within it. I felt that this
was the Lord.

I suddenly found myself standing at the foot of the burning pillar of fire.
I was at the feet of the Lord. I looked all the way up the pillar of fire
and what I saw filled me with a sense of awesome wonder. I also felt a
certain measure of trepidation and fear, and found that I was trembling in
the presence of the holiness of the Lord.

The Lord within the burning pillar of fire had His feet planted firmly in
the center of the earth, yet was also high above the earth, reaching into
the heavens.

I then watched and saw as individual flames shot out from the pillar of
fire. The flames shot out into all directions and appeared to enter into
places where people were gathered together. Some of these people were
gathered into groups within buildings. There were also other people milling
close to these buildings, but who were not within these buildings.

"Who are these people?" I asked the Lord.

"These are My children," the Lord replied. "They are gathered together in My
Name."

"Why are some of the people inside the buildings and others outside of the
buildings?" I asked the Lord.

"Some of My children have joined themselves to local congregations," the
Lord explained to me. "And some of My children have left local
congregations, yet still desire fellowship one with another. Each gather in
My Name, and are part of My Body.

"My Body is not static," the Lord continued. "My Body is constantly
growing, constantly maturing. Many of My children in these days criticize My
Body, and compare it to how it was at its conception. Yet I say unto you, My
child, and unto them, that it was never My will for My Body to remain as it
was at its conception. Just as babies mature and grow into adulthood; just
so has it been My desire for My Body to grow into maturity."

I watched as the flames of the Lord's presence illuminated each building.
Each of the people gathered both within and without the buildings was also
illuminated. The flames began to fully reveal what was contained within each
building and also within each of the people. In almost every building and
person, I saw what appeared to be a mixture of both light and darkness.

"What is this light and darkness I am seeing within the buildings and the
people?" I asked the Lord.

"The light is purity and truth," the Lord explained. "The darkness is
wickedness and false doctrine."

As the flames entered into the buildings and touched each of the people, I
saw some of the people fall prostrate on their faces.

"Why have some of the people fallen to their faces?" I asked the Lord.

"They are aware they are in the presence of My holiness," the Lord replied.
"The awareness of My holy presence is terrifying."

"Why haven't the rest of the people fallen to their faces?" I asked the
Lord.

"They have no fear of Me," the Lord answered.

I watched the people who had fallen prostrate to their faces. The flames of
the Lord's presence burned brighter upon them. At first, the people to whom
this was happening appeared to be in agony. As I continued to watch, though,
I saw as these people began to change in their appearance. The fire of the
Lord entered into their hearts, and began to burn outwards from within each
of them.

Gently, the Lord touched these people and they rose to their feet. As they
stood upright, I was struck by how calmly determined each of them seemed to
be. I also felt a great love and gentleness emanating from each of them. I
also sensed a great maturity within each of these people.

"What has just happened here, Lord?" I asked the Lord.

"These people have been brought through much testing and many trials," the
Lord replied. "They were in the process of being perfected. I now send them
forth to My children in the spirit of a father and in the spirit of a
mother. They will tear down what is not of Me, and will build back up
according to My commandments and instructions. They will be fully motivated
and consumed with love; both love for Me and love for My children. They will
have no hidden motives or agendas. Their sole desire is to do My will.

"There are those who will seek to tear down when I have not sent them to
tear down. They have not been perfected unto love," the Lord continued.
"Some of them will have heard My voice, and will know My will, but they will
not perform My will perfectly; for they know not My heart. It is not My
desire to destroy My children or My Body. It is My desire to destroy sin and
wickedness, and to save and perfect My people and My Body. Any who comes
declaring a different message than this, has not been sent by Me."

Then the Lord touched the mature appearing people yet again and spoke
quietly to every one of them. I watched as these people, both men and women,
began to approach the people gathered outside of the buildings and appeared
to begin to minister to them. Others entered into the buildings and
approached each person gathered within the buildings and began to minister
to each of these people.

As the mature appearing men and women ministered to the people, I saw a
changing and a transformation beginning to occur. Many of the people who had
not at first fallen prostrate on their faces, now began to do so. When they
finally rose back to their feet, it was as if their appearance and spirit
had changed in the same manner as had that of the mature appearing people. I
now saw that the light emanating outwards from within them was a clear
light, with no darkness contained within it. The people who had not fallen
prostrate on their faces continued to contain both light and darkness within
them.

I then watched as the Lord changed from a burning pillar of fire into a
mighty tree. The tree reached high into the heavens, and its branches
overspread the entire world. I watched as the people who had no darkness
within them approached the tree, and then somehow became part of the tree.
Great clusters of fruit began to appear upon the branches of the tree. The
branches of the tree were so filled with ripe fruit that the branches of the
tree were bowed from the weight of the fruit.

I noticed that the people and the buildings who still contained darkness
within them had no fruit or very little fruit.
I then saw great multitudes of people approaching the mighty tree. As they
came up to the tree, they began to pick and to eat the fruit from the
branches of the tree. They also picked the leaves of the tree and rubbed the
leaves on their body.

"Who are these people, Lord?" I asked the Lord.

"These are the lost," the Lord replied. "When My children and My Body have
been brought to maturity, they will draw to Me those who are hungry for
truth and righteousness.

"This is a critical time for My Body and My children," the Lord continued.
"I have given a short season of peace, but perilous times are ahead.
Behold!" The Lord cried out. He pointed towards the howling, frenzied
demonic beings on the other side of the clear glass surface.

"Know this, child," the Lord stated as I stared at the demonic beings.
"These demonic beings will be released upon the earth. They each have a
specific region of the earth to torment, and they have specific plans of
attack to carry out.

"I am striving to prepare My children and My Body for the unleashing of this
coming evil. It will be through the maturity of My people, who will walk in
unity and in love and in the power of My Holy Spirit, that this coming evil
must be resisted. This forthcoming attack will be severe. I warn My
children, My people, to prepare themselves.

"One of the greatest weapons I am giving to and preparing My children to use
to resist and withstand this forthcoming attack," the Lord said to me, "is
love. When My children return to a holy fear of Me, they will obey Me and My
commandments. They will know My heart, and they will understand how to live
and to walk in love for Me and towards one another. The enemy will not be
able to overcome those who walk in love. I adjure My children to use wisdom
and maturity in this forthcoming demonic attack. And I command My children
to walk in love."

The Storms Of Life

Behold I stand at the door and knock; I am standing with outstretched
hands. When the storm was raging, when the waters and sea were raging,
where was I? When Peter asked Me, "Master, if it be You, bid me to come
to
You," I told Peter, "Come." Did I not tell Peter, "Have faith; only
believe?"

As Peter began to walk toward Me, the enemy began telling Peter to look
at what he was doing. "Look at all this water; don't you know you are
going
to drown?" What happened? Peter began to sink. Why did Peter begin to
sink? It was because he took his eyes of Me. If Peter had not taken his
eyes off Me, he would not have begun to sink.

That is with some of My children; they have taken their eyes off the
protector. Have I not told you I would never leave you nor forsake
you?
Have I not told you to look up? Have I not told you that I will not
let
you fall, sink or fail? Have I not brought you a long way? Have I not
held
you in My arms?

When the storms of life are raging round about you, have I not told you
that I would stand by you? I will uphold you, I will be with you. The
storms of sickness, the storms of death, the storms of loneliness, the
storms of family crisis may surround you. But have I not told you to
be steadfast; to stand still for I am there?

My children, how many times have I come to you through My servants,
through My word? Call upon Me and I will answer, seek Me, ask of Me.
I
have set before you the word; I have set before you and given you
peace,
joy, life, healing, strength -- all of these things I have given to
you,
and much more.

When the storms of life get rough, which they will, know that the great
I
AM is there; El Shaddai, the God who is more than enough is there; the
All
Sufficient One is there -- that is Me wrapped up in one. I am there
for
you. Put your eyes on Me, not on man. Put your trust in Me, not man.

I have given you the keys to the kingdom. I shed My blood for you and
I gave you authority. Why don't you use it?

When you pass through the storm, why are you not using what I have
given
you? I spoke the words when the storm was raging, when the disciples
woke
Me, and I said, "Peace be still." That is all you have to do, My
children.
Just say, "Peace be still," and I will calm the storms in your life. I
will
calm the raging bull that you are facing. I will stand in your stead
because
I am the peace-speaker. I am the heart fixer. I am the restorer and the
renewer.

I have a place for you when the storm is raging. I have a place for you
when you don't know where to hide. I have that secret place in My
garden
when the storms are raging in your life. I have comfort in that secret
place in My garden for you, I have that place of refuge.

When the storms of life are raging, behold, I am there. When you don't
understand, behold I am there to calm and comfort you. When it seems
like
all is lost because of the storms and they seem to overtake you, fear
not;
I AM the storm-calmer. I will be there for you no matter what you are
going through, no matter where you are or where you are going. When
you
go through the storms, when they rage in your life, I am there with
you.

Don't you know how much I love you? Don't you know I care what happens
in
your life? I will say to your storms, "Peace be still," and they must
obey
My voice. I love you, My children, I love you.

The Wounds You Bear

I have rescued you for a destiny far greater than you can imagine. Your
wounds are the very stones from which My house and purposes are built.
The clear images you remember of hurt, disappointment, embarrassment
and
failure are the soil in which My strength grows. Have you not heard, My
grace is sufficient for thee; for my strength is made perfect in
weakness.

There is power, great power in placing your wounds under My care, for I
am the Great Physician. I specialize in healing your wounds. I come
that
you might have life in all its fullness and this includes you in all
your
strengths and particularly in your weaknesses. Do not consider that
your
deep wounds are ugly in My sight. They are beautiful for they bring you
near to Me. Your wounds are like Mine. We can talk together of our war
wounds and the comradeship in battle. Let Me be your friend in battle,
let
me be your healer, let Me be your refuge. Allow Me to empower you in
your
weakness, for when you are weak, then you are made strong. I have
chosen
the weak things of this world to confound the things which are mighty.
My strength is made perfect in your weakness.

And so, my friend, My dearly loved one, you, My dear child. Take time
to
draw close to me and the wounds you bear will take on a whole new
meaning.
They will begin to shine in My presence. Consider yourself worthy to
have
suffered, for I have never abandoned you. In fact, I delight in you
always.
So, my dearly loved one, lift up those tired arms and quicken the pace
of
your feet for the time is coming and is now at hand when I will raise
up a
mighty army from amongst My wounded ones.

Battle Weary

When you are battle weary and feeling tired and discouraged, remember
that
I love you, not for what you do for Me, but because of your heart to
serve
and honor Me. I do not expect you to always fight and advance My
kingdom.
There are times when I do not expect you to perform. There are times
that
I have ordained as rest for you.

Some of My own feel worthless, unloved or inadequate when they are not
performing up to what they believe their normal standards should be.
And they fear that I am displeased with them because of that. But I do
not think as man thinks, and I do not assign a person's value or degree
of love based solely on their performance. And I do not want My
children
to feel unlovable or unworthy when they are tired and weary. I want
them
to rest and be refreshed.

In fact, there are times when I command My dear ones to simply rest and
recover. I created you and I understand your frailties. I know that
at times you will be weary. I understand that at times you will not be
able to do all that you usually do. I understand that at times you will
not be able to advance and move forward -- there will be times when all
I expect of you is merely to stand.

Child, your value to Me is not in the service that you perform for Me.
It is the other way around -- it is because I love and value you that I
allow you to participate with Me in the kingdom work that I am doing
here
on this earth. I give you real kingdom work to do with Me, and I give
you
the anointing and empowerment to be effective in it because I love you.
I know that you desire to be close to Me, I know that you desire to
move
with Me and that you desire to see My love and My power and My
anointing
flow through you. And it is because of these desires that I have given
you
a destiny in advancing My kingdom. However, your value does not come
from
your destiny -- rather I give you this destiny because I love and I
value
you.

And child, there are times that I have appointed you to rest. You will
not be productive in your rest; you are not expected to be. Do not be
discouraged in these times. I do not want you to become too weary to
walk
alongside of Me and to see what I am doing. I do not want you to be
too
tired to hear My voice when I speak to you. I know that as soldiers in
My army, there will be times when you will need "leave" or breaks to
rest
and be restored. Do not feel guilty when I give these to you.

Rest, child of Mine. Rest in Me. Do not seek to please Me by trying
to
do something that I have not tasked you to do. It pleases me more when
you watch what I am doing and do only that. Don't try to do more than
I
have assigned to you and don't try to make your tasks harder than they
are. Believe Me, I know your capabilities and I will use you to your
full potential. At times I will make demands of you and at times I
will
call you to rest. Do not make more demands of yourself than those that
I have put on you -- for I say that My yoke is not intended to be
unbearable
or heavy. It is intended to be light, that your joy might be full.

I know what you need, child of Mine, because I created you and I love
you dearly. And there are times when you need to rest. At those times,
all I require of you is to rest and be restored and refreshed. So do
not feel guilty when I take you off of the front lines, as I don't want
you to become battle weary in the times that I have ordained for you to
fight.

Instead, use those times to be refreshed, that you might hear My voice
clearly, that you may gain strength for the next battle that I will
call you into. Do not allow the enemy of your souls to make you feel
guilty in your times of rest. Your value and worth is not determined
by
your performance -- it was determined when I sent My son to die on the
cross to redeem you, long before you ever did a single deed for Me. And
I ask you to demonstrate your love for Me by obeying what I command
you to do. So when I command you to rest, then rest and relax and be
refreshed. Obedience in this will cause Me great pleasure, for I am
a loving Father who wants good things for you.

Watch and Pray

My children, watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation.
The
enemy prowls around like a lion looking for an opportunity to deceive
and
lure you away from Me. Be on your guard and do not neglect your time
spent
with Me. Do not neglect your time spent in prayer and intercession.

I am looking for those who would stand in the gap for those who can't.
I am
asking you to hold up the arms of your weary brethren in intercession
for
them like Moses' arms were held up by Aaron and Hur, so that he would
not
tire and so that the battle could continue.

Now I am raising up the tabernacle of David, My anointed one. I am
raising
up My house of prayer. Come and join with those who are already
standing
in the gap. Come and unite in unity and faith so that I am able to work
My
miracles, signs and wonders through My body. There is no room for
disputes.
There is no room for the one who remains isolated. All must work
together
as one for I am One. I am One God. We are not divided, and neither
should
you be divided. So, watch what you speak and watch what you confess,
even
in prayer. You must guard what comes out of your mouth, for I am
anointing
you to speak My oracles. Be sure that what you confess lines up with
My
word. Be sure that what you confess will not open a door to the enemy.

My words will come out of your mouth like fire, for I am a consuming
fire.

Time to Go

Go. Take My word and share it. Take it to the four corners of the
earth
and share My truth with all who you meet. Do not keep it hidden. What
good is a light if it is hidden away and not shared with those who are
in
the darkness? What is the good of the truth if it hibernates within
one
heart while others wait to hear? Go on swift feet and do not delay, do
not
have fear. Go. Take what you have learned in your times of trials and
tribulations, take what you have seen in My word, take what you know
and
share with all those who you meet. Share Me, for I am the Father of
all.

I will provide all that you need; all you must take is My word. Take
My
truth and go. There are many who wait. They wait in desolate places,
in
war ravaged lands, in hungry and cold places where My truth will shine
and
give them warmth. I will give you the words, I will give you the
strength,
for am I not the provider who takes care of all your needs? Have I not
promised to see you through all that may come your way? Remember. I
am
not one who will lie. I will not send you unprepared. Do not wait.
You
have waited, you have waited long in your solitary place, and now is
the
time to go.

Go and set free those who are chained to untruths. Go and take My
light
into the corners of the earth. Go to the strange places and the hidden
places and do not look back, for this walk is a forward walk. And I
walk
alongside you. Clap your hands! This is a time of joy! This is a
time
of Kingdom praises! This is a time to sing and lift your voices in
praise,
for a great and mighty wind is blowing, and it will set you on your
way,
the Spirit of My truth.
 

15 Ways To Remove The Enemy's Covering

Chuck Pierce

You need to break anything that the enemy creates to hinder your ability to discern. He hides his way from us. The enemy plots and plans on our path to develop a strategy to divert us from accomplishing God's will and entering into His blessings. Many of us have a hard time seeing the enemy's snare that has been strategically planted on our path of life. Therefore, we step in this tangled web and spend much of our time struggling to free ourselves from his distractions and plan of conforming. To conform means to develop a blueprint that will mould us into the way of the world, instead of us staying free to think God's way and walking in the present truth of this age.

A Crucial Hour

Priscilla Van Sutphin

People mock My name day in and day out. Spiritual blindness and deafness has affected the lives of ordinary men and women, and children are taught humanistic and pagan principles in schools. Compromise has filled many churches called by My name, for a long time now. Don’t you think I have been patient? Don’t you think that wake up calls have been given enough to shake people? Yet people go on in their complacency and apathy. You must pray and worship and war with the weapons I’ve given you, and you must continue to REST in My arms of love in communion with ME, that you will be prepared. PREPARE YE THE WAY OF THE LORD, I have said. How did they prepare for Pentecost? That is how you need to prepare now! Worship, pray, read, LISTEN for Me to talk back to you, and then DO what I ask you to do. The wind blows where it will, and so must you also be led of the Spirit [Ruach Elohim]. Let ME be Your Adonai!

A Thrusting

Bill Yount

In the Spirit, I saw Heaven full of harvest sickles that were destined to be used by the angels, to be thrust into the earth for a sudden reaping of final harvest. What appeared to be the largest harvest sickle in heaven captivated the angels' attention as the Father decreed:

"With one thrust of this sickle whole households will be brought into My Kingdom! Pick it up! There will be a 'thrusting' for those who have been 'trusting' Me for their entire households!"

The Power Is In The Shed Blood Of Jesus

When My body was broken, it broke the power of the declaration of death
over you. Sickness has no right of declaration any longer. You must
wave that declaration before the enemy and declare it no longer valid.
You give it validity by agreeing with what goes on in your body and
taking ownership. Yes, your body will be buffeted by the enemy, but
My declaration of "you are healed" has replaced the old declaration.
You must believe My declaration is now valid and the enemy's invalid.

As each piece of My Body was broken, the life in it was released to
overcome death. Where there is My life, there can be no death. The
life was in My blood. As My blood flowed, My life was released. That
life has the power to overcome sickness and death. The enemy has
taught
you that there is more power in His death than in My life. That is a
lie birthed in the heart of the father of lies. Everything he says is
the opposite of My truth.

Strengthen your faith My people. Believe the truth, "By My stripes you
are healed." Allow the life of My blood to flow freely over your
wounds
and sicknesses. Allow your mind to comprehend My life. Yes, I died on
the cross; yes, I bore your diseases, and yes, you have suffered
because
of the lord of this world. But I tell you I am the Lord of life and I
am the Lord over death. You must appropriate the power of the life of
My blood.

I have given you the authority and right to do that by My conquering of
death. Walk in My life, My authority, My power. Use My Name. Use the
power of My blood.

No foe should be able to stand long against you when you use the keys I
went to hell to retrieve on your behalf. Your flesh listens to the
lies
of the adversary. Your spirit should be overruling that and listening
to
My truth. There is power in My blood. The life is in My blood. That
is
why the enemy has tricked you. He knows the power, is afraid of the
power,
and therefore has lied to you about the power. Use the power of My
shed
blood as a mighty weapon against your foe. Use My declaration of life
to replace the enemy's declaration of death.
 

I wish to have My people hear My Word and not to
doubt it.

Thus saith the Lord. I wish to have My people hear My Word and not to
doubt it. So many of My people doubt healing, doubt miracles, doubt
the power of God in their lives. So many turn and believe the world
around them more than they believe in Me.

Turn now and believe everything that is in My Word. Turn and believe
that I am the God of the universe and I can move mountains for you.
If you believe, you can receive many miracles daily. If you cannot,
you can leave behind the God you serve and will not receive much from
Him.

"Father's Day" From God's Perspective

Child of Mine, you have no idea what it cost Me so that I could call
you
"My child." I had only one Son, and My heart delighted in Him. He was
a Son after My own heart, and no one could ask for a better Son than He
was to Me. I loved Him dearly. It was not easy for Me to send Him to
the earth to become human and walk among men. Even though He soon
became
a man of prayer and a man after My own heart, there was a type of
separation
between us for those years that He lived among you as one of you. This
was a separation We had never experienced before. Yes, I was with Him
in
the sense that I am with you. But before that time, we had never been
separated in any fashion, being together in perfect unity and for all
of
eternity. So it was a sacrifice for Me to allow Him to give up His
omni-presence and to become confined into a human body for a season,
that
He would not be with me in all the vast expanse of Heaven. When He
became
a man, He was no longer present with Me in the Heavenlies. You do not
know
Our relationship and Our closeness, so you cannot conceive of the sense
of
loss that I felt during this time that He was "away."

My Son laid aside His power and His majesty and took on the form of a
man.
Even though He was all-knowing, for a season He set aside this
knowledge.
Even though He was all-present, for a season He confined Himself to a
single body. Even though He was all powerful, He laid aside His own
power
and allowed Himself to be empowered only through My indwelling Holy
Spirit.
In doing this, He humbled Himself more than you can imagine.

Even in His humbled state, He remained the perfect Son. He laid aside
His
own will to embrace My will. He never argued and He never complained,
He simply obeyed Me. He watched Me to see what I was doing in this
earth
and then He did it with Me. I would have been pleased with Him even if
He
had not pre-existed with Me for all eternity, for His behavior as a
human
Son was well pleasing in My sight.

Do you have any idea how difficult it was for Me to command Him to die
in
your stead? Do you have any idea how it ripped My heart out to hear
Him
pray, in great distress, "Oh Father, if possible, let this cup pass
from
Me?" How could a loving Father say "No" to that request? Yet, for
your
sake, I had to say "No" to Him. Do you have any idea how it wrenched My
innermost being to hear Him pray, ".. Nevertheless, not My will but
Yours
be done." And even though He had never disobeyed and never rebelled
and
never done any wrong, the filth of your transgression was laid upon Him
--
and I had to allow Him to suffer greatly for your sake.

This was a very difficult thing for Me to ask Him to do.

Child of Mine, on Good Friday you think of the price My Son paid for
you
and of the sacrifice He made on your behalf. You try to imagine the
physical horrors of what He suffered on your behalf. You shutter just
to think of it, even though you cannot possibly comprehend all that He
experienced to purchase your salvation.

I would like you to also realize what a sacrifice it was on My end.
What
father among you asks any of his sons to lay down their life for
another?
Wouldn't that father rather lay down his own life for his son rather
than
let him die? Don't you think I felt that way as well? Do you have any
idea the tears I shed at what I asked My Son to do for you? Do you
have
any idea how much pain that caused Me? Do you have any idea of the
grief
I suffered when My only begotten Son was be separated from Me for the
season that He walked on the earth? How do you think I felt when your
sins and your filthiness separated Him from Me as He hung on that
cross?

So why would I go through all of this? And why would I require that My
dear Son should suffer in this manner and even die for the sake of
others?
I did it because I desire to call you "My Child." I love you that
much.
Good Friday is not just the day that My Son laid down His life for you,
it is also the day that it became possible for Me to become your
Father.
Good Friday is Father's day to Me.

Calling you "My Child" is not just a title that I have given to you, it
is a relationship we embark on together. If My Son had not come, we
could
not have this relationship, because your sin would separate you from
Me.
He died and He rose from the dead so that you can enter into this
intimate
relationship with Me. He died so that I could become your Father and
adopt
you into My family.

Child, such a great price was paid to accomplish this. Yet at times
you
push Me away and you run from My intimacy and you rebel against Me. It
should not be this way. Turn to Me and let My Son serve as your
example.
Follow Him as He followed Me. Look to see what I am doing and do only
that. Honor Me in all you do and commit your heart to obey Me fully, no
matter what I request of you. Love Me with all of your heart and all of
your soul and all of your spirit. This is what I want from you for
Father's
day. And this is what I want from you for every day of your life.

So come to Me and truly be My child. Enter into the fullness of all
that
this means. Love Me, honor Me and obey Me in all things. Experience
My
nearness and learn of Me. For then you are truly My child and I am
truly your Father.

Keep Your Ears Open


My child, even when all of Heaven seems quiet, it is not because I have
left you. Keep your ears open and your mind uncluttered for I will
speak
soon -- listen for My voice. Know that I am always busy on your
behalf.

Every situation has action behind it for things must be set straight
and
in order before I will act in your situation. There is a lot going on
behind the scenes. Even now angels are being sent on assignments into
your life. Just trust Me and keep your ears open. You must be able to
discern when it is not My voice telling you things. But you will know.
If you truly seek My counsel, you may hear 1000 words from the enemy --
but the one Word that I speak -- you will know the difference. For I
speak only love, joy, and comfort to My children. I do not speak
confusion. Hear Me now, child. Keep your ears wide open. For now I
speak. Even in your current problems I am sending solutions. Keep
your
eyes on Me for I am the glory and the lifter of your head.

I Hear Your Prayers


Child of Mine, I hear your prayers and I answer them. Some of you
have felt like the heavens are brass to you, that I am not listening
to you, that I am not hearing you and that I do not care about your
needs or about your situation. Some of you have felt very far from
Me, as though I were angry at you when you are not aware of any reason
for this. You have searched your heart for unconfessed sin or for
bitterness or unforgiveness or rebellion, and you have not found any.
And you have wondered why I am so far away from you.

Child of Mine, the truth is that I am not far away from you. I have
promised that I will never leave you and I will never forsake you,
and I won't. I am right here beside you, even when you can't feel
My presence. I am watching every step you take, and I have set My
protection before and behind you. I hear every prayer you pray and
I have a great concern and a great love for you.

I know it doesn't feel that way to you right now. But what are you
going to trust? Are you going to trust your feelings and your
perceptions, which are heavily influenced by the lies of the enemy?
Or are you going to trust what I have already said to you in My word?
Will you allow My truth to work its good work in you, to make you
strong and complete in Me? Will you allow me to strengthen and
increase your faith?

Child, remember that things are not always what they seem. I am a
God of all truth, but at times you may not understand what I am doing.
The deceiver of your souls is a liar and he desires greatly to deceive
you, to cause you to believe that I do not care for you, that I do not
hear your prayers. His desire is to dishearten you, to destroy your
faith and to destroy your hope, so that you stop looking to Me and
praying to Me and stop asking Me. But I say to you, child of Mine, I
do hear your prayers. Ask of Me, and you shall receive from My hand.
Seek Me and keep on seeking Me and surely you will find Me. For
I am faithful and I will be found of you.

Child of Mine, I am with you and I will never leave you. I will not
abandon you as orphans in a storm. I will not leave you comfortless.
I will not turn My back on you. Rest assured that My Spirit lives
inside of you and that I do hear your prayers. Know that I am a
loving Father Who desires to give good gifts to My children. But
you do not always understand what gift I am giving you at the moment.
At times I am giving you the gift of increased faith or of increased
endurance and stamina. So it may appear to you that I am not answering
your prayers, that I am not coming through for you. But that is only
a mirage, it is not reality. My reality is that I am a loving Father,
one who takes care of His children, and I will meet your needs. Trust
Me to take care of you, and I will.

At times it may feel that I am very distant from you. It may seem that
no matter how much you cry out to Me and no matter how desperately
you seek Me, you simply cannot find Me. Child, that is also an
illusion.
Do not trust the illusion, keep your heart and mind fixed on My
reality. Your feelings do not always accurately express truth, for
they are flawed by the fallen human nature, and they will not be
perfected until you are fully transformed into the likeness of My Son.
Do not trust your feelings, for your feelings will lie to you. Trust
the truth that I have already spoken in My written word. Know that I
will never leave you nor forsake you. Know that I am not far from you.
Know that I will never reject you.

As you look to My truth and choose to believe it, the power of the lies
of your emotions will diminish. And you will begin to once again sense
My nearness and feel My love surrounding you. My truth will break the
power of the deception and you will see just how close and near I am to
you. And you will feel just how much I love you and care for you. And
you will experience My faithfulness and know that I am a God who hears
and answers your prayers.

Come Closer

My People, My people, I am calling you.

I am calling you out and I am calling you higher. Come unto Me and I
will
give you rest. Come close to Me, Don't stay far away from Me.

Come unto Me, for I have much to tell you, to teach you. I will show
you
how to live. I will give you the information necessary for the journey.
I will love you, caress you, and nourish you. I am El Shaddai.

I will remove those things that separate you from Me as you cry unto
Me.
I will expose the deceptions that have hindered and distracted you. As
you
seek Me, it will become clear as day. You will perceive that which is
of
Me and you will also understand what is not of Me. For I am your
healer,
your provider, your lover. I am your heavenly Father.

Come close to Me. Don't turn away and give up because of your
frustration.
I am calling you to another level, so seek Me with your whole heart.
Abandon all that holds you back and come close to Me. Reach up and
touch
Me, and I will reach down and touch you. For I am your God and you are
My
people. Turn back and come close to me, so close to Me, for I am
calling
you.

New Depths Of Relationship With Me

Child of Mine, I desire to bring you into new depths of relationship
with Me. Whatever level you are currently at in your walk with Me,
there is much more that I have for you, and I desire to bring you
there.

I desire to manifest Myself to you, to teach you of Myself, to show
you My ways. I desire to give you real kingdom work to do with Me,
so that I might work My power and My glory and My anointing through you
as you participate with Me in it. I desire to flood your senses with My
nearness, and I desire to captivate your heart with a greater
revelation
of My goodness and of My love for you.

But if you want more of Me, child, you must give Me more of yourself.
I do require that exchange from you. You must give Me more of your
obedience, more of your time, more of your worship. I cannot draw you
closer to Me if you are constantly running from Me to this thing or
that activity. I cannot manifest My presence to you when your attention
is focused on things other than Myself. I cannot increase My anointing
upon you when you are not obeying Me with what I have already given
you.

You must look to Me, you must run to Me with a heart to obey Me. You
must
give Me priority on your leisure time and you must allow Me to set your
agenda, that I might begin to place My kingdom purposes into it. Give
Me
your time, for you spend time on what you value -- so show Me that you
value intimacy with Me by spending time with Me. Worship Me. Read My
word.
Talk to Me and listen to My voice as I speak to you. Learn to trust Me,
for I am faithful and I am good.

Child of Mine, I don't want you to ever be satisfied in your walk with
Me. Press in for more. Continue to grow and mature in Me. Seek Me and
you will surely find Me, for I desire greatly to be found of you. I
desire to draw you close. But in order to do this, you must desire it
too. Do you, child of Mine? Do you desire to be close to Me? Do you
desire
to know Me better? Will you allow Me to teach you My ways? Will you
allow
Me to increase the clarity with which you hear My voice? Will you allow
Me to flood your senses with My presence? I desire greatly to do these
things, child. I desire to draw you closer to Me. Will you participate
with Me in this? Will you do your part? Will you allow Me to draw
you into new depths of relationship with Me?

Child, if your answer is yes, then I will surely do it. But it is a
process. Building relationship together takes time. It takes trust and
it takes faithfulness and commitment. I have all of these qualities but
I also demand them from you. Come to Me in this manner, and I will draw
you closer to Me than you have ever been before. This is My invitation
to you. I am inviting you into new depths of relationship with Me.

My people need to spend time in My Word.

Thus saith the Lord. My people need to spend time in My Word. They
are weak spiritually because they do not spend time before Me in
reading of My Word, meditation of what they read, and fasting and
prayer before Me.

There is coming a time when only the strong in the Spirit will be
able to stand. Even now those that stand and believe everything that
is in My Word are not necessarily strong. Only those that have spent
time in prayer have built up spiritual strength. These are those that
I use in spreading My Salvation throughout the earth.
