FEAR NOT!

Romans 8:31 “What then shall we say to [all] this? If God is for us, who [can be] against us? [Who can be our foe, if God is on our side?]”

Beloved you have entered into a gateway that will lead you to a place where the possibilities are endless. If you will trust Me at the beginning, in the middle and even to the end of your journey you need not fear because the outcome will be great and will lead you into the full manifestation of My favor in your life.  I Am He who is your Way-maker and your Bridge. I will make your way clear and I will connect the dots of your life to complete the picture of magnificence and greatness that I have ordained before the foundation of the world. When you cannot see your way clear you must be persuaded that I am not just at the beginning and the end of your miracle but I with you to sustain and for you to protect you in the middle of your miracle. When you have received My Word to go forward your responsibility is to hear Me and harken unto My voice and not look back. My path is ever before you; it is not behind back. My child I Am the Author and the Finisher of all of your days. I Am He who began the work in you and I will finish it. Rest securely in My peace and lean not to your own understanding. You have nothing to fear. In this hour you must trust Me and do not doubt So put off your fear and allow Me to arise in you. Even though the storms will come, I say to you fear not for I Am your Peace and I will never allow you to be overtaken.

John 14:27 (AMP) "Peace I leave with you; My [own] peace I now give and bequeath to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. [Stop allowing yourselves to be agitated and disturbed; and do not permit yourselves to be fearful and intimidated and cowardly and unsettled.]"

Enter in the Kingdom

Acts 14:22 (AMP) “Establishing and strengthening the souls and the hearts of the disciples, urging and warning and encouraging them to stand firm in the faith, and [telling them] that it is through many hardships and tribulations we must enter the kingdom of God.”

Beloved as your Sovereign God, Lord and King today I am urging you to stick with what you have begun; to believe and not to quit. By My Word and example I have made it clear to you that it wouldn't be easy because anyone signing up for the kingdom of God has to go through plenty of hard times. Now is the time that you must see through Kingdom eyes. You must see every trial, every difficulty and every tribulation as a doorway that is giving you access to My eternal Kingdom. In-fact if you will allow Me to, I will reveal to you how the greatness of your victory is measured by the greatest of your trials. Your wilderness season is creating in you a victory mentality so that when you enter into the promised land you will have put-off the slave mentality of your Egypt. What Am I saying to you today? I Am saying to you that you must consider it all joy when you encounter various trials for this is a place of true maturity of faith. As you fully embrace every trial as an opportunity to grow in faith you will begin to walk in great victory. I Am calling you to a higher level of trust in My Word. Have I not told you that in the world you have tribulation? And have I not told you to be of good courage and good cheer because I have overcome the world? If you will receive My Word, you can have perfect peace, unspeakable joy and unending hope even in the midst of the shaking all around you. Beloved abide in Me and I will abide in you. Be of great courage and be confident because all things always work together for the good of those who love Me and are called according to My purpose. In other words, it is I who will lead you into victory and always cause you to triumph. I Am your Victory, therefore, you never lose. Rest assured that every challenge to your faith will only make your faith grow if you do not become faint and lose heart but instead be tenacious and full of faith. In your humanity I know that you will have times where you will feel doubt, hopelessness and fear but you must be persuaded that these feelings cannot control you or render you stagnate or wavering in your faith. Instead dear one, commit to being well-ordered and disciplined only by the Love of God and the power of Holy Spirit. You have come a mighty long way and there is much I have entrusted to you and ordained for you just ahead because you are among My chosen. There are many things that happen in your life and in the world that you may not understand but as I have told you; Trust in the Lord with all of your hearts, lean not to your own understanding but acknowledge Me in all of your ways and I will direct your paths. Therefore, let everything that you do be done with the skill and discipline of faith in My Word of Promise which far surpasses your human understanding. There is a new way of faith that has been released to whosoever will take a hold of it. And, as you do you will see your thinking realigned to grasp the new thing that I AM doing, says the Lord.

On time….every time

Psalm 105:19 “Until the time came to fulfill his dreams, the LORD tested Joseph’s character.”

My Beloved, hear My word to you today; I am never late and never in a hurry. In fact my eternal time clock is set on fulfillment at the set time, appointed time and in due season. In this is My blessed assurance; I Am on time, every time. You need not faint nor be wearisome or impatient. There is a purpose in the waiting just as there is an appointed time of fulfillment. If you will trust Me in the waiting your faith shall soar and propel you into the fulfillment.

Ephesians 1:10 “And this is the plan: At the right time he will bring everything together under the authority of Christ—everything in heaven and on earth.”

I will cause your faith to soar to new heights

Beloved, what you need now is faith. You need to begin to trust and hope again like never before. I have watched over you and have kept you even before I formed you in your mother’s womb. The days will grow darker, but you My love will shine like the sun. Where the darkness once sought to defeat you, the light now shines. And where the enemy sought to bring destruction, new life now prevails. As you continue to move forward I will cause your faith to soar like never before. This will be a work of the Spirit and not of your own will. I will mount you up on eagles wings and nothing will be impossible for you. Every mountain will be brought low and you will walk triumphantly into victory. I am commanding you to put away your fear. When the enemy comes in like a flood the banner of faith must be lifted high. Your faith must rest in Me. Your faith cannot be based on your own talent, strength or ability because it will fail you. Beloved, this is My father heart towards you; I will cause your faith to soar and it will empower you to walk in the overcoming power, strength and resolve that is your inheritance, say the Lord.

1 John 5:4 (NKJV) “For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.”

Not my will but Thy will be done

Romans 12:2 (AMP) “Do not be conformed to this world (this age), [fashioned after and adapted to its external, superficial customs], but be transformed (changed) by the [entire] renewal of your mind [by its new ideals and its new attitude], so that you may prove [for yourselves] what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God, even the thing which is good and acceptable and perfect [in His sight for you]."

Beloved, not only do I have a perfect and acceptable will for your life but My desire is to reveal it to you as you renew your mind according to My Word of truth. It is My Word that upholds and sustains you, and as you write it on your heart and mind you will be transformed to completely and fully know Who I Am and who you are in Me. With a renewed mind you can think like Me; you will be able to see things, people and your life situations like I do and this will fuel your confession of, Father not my will but Your will be done in my life, in my family, in the world and in all of creation. Dear child, do not continue to allow yourself to be led away and held captive by your old thought patterns that are rooted in your thoughts, your hurts, and your past. It is time to put all familiar spirits that continue to bring defeat and doubt behind you. You have allowed yourselves to be driven on a course of life directed by wrong thought patterns for far too long. Now I say, you have gone around that mountain long enough and it is now high time to leave the wilderness place of your mind. In your pursuit to knowing the Planner and the plan I remind you that learning, knowing and walking in My perfect will can only come by way of surrendering your thoughts for Mine and by surrendering your ways for Mine for as I have said, My ways are not your ways, neither are My thoughts your thoughts; Mine are higher. Beloved, once again I say to you, come up higher there is so much I want to reveal to you, says the Lord.

1 Corinthians 2:16 (AMP) “For who has known or understood the mind (the counsels and purposes) of the Lord so as to guide and instruct Him and give Him knowledge? But we have the mind of Christ (the Messiah) and do hold the thoughts (feelings and purposes) of His heart.”

Get to know the Planner

Ephesians 1:17-21 (AMP) "[For I always pray to] the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, that He may grant you a spirit of wisdom and revelation [of insight into mysteries and secrets] in the [deep and intimate] knowledge of Him, 18By having the eyes of your heart flooded with light, so that you can know and understand the hope to which He has called you, and how rich is His glorious inheritance in the saints (His set-apart ones), 19And [so that you can know and understand] what is the immeasurable and unlimited and surpassing greatness of His power in and for us who believe, as demonstrated in the working of His mighty strength.."

My desire is that you would come to experience Me so that you can fully know My heart and mind towards you as you continue to press forward into the Promise. As you come into the intimate knowledge of who I Am you will walk in the revelation of My thoughts and plans concerning you. You will also get a glimpse of My intentions and motives towards you and the glorious future that I have already planned and ordained. You begin to walk in the true understanding and the revelation that I have a plan for your life that is rooted in complete and total victory. If you want to know the plans then you must get to know the Planner. The time has come for you to cease walking around in the maze of confusion concerning your past, present and future. I Am the One who knows the plans, therefore, get to know the Planner and I will reveal the plans. There is so much that I want to tell you; so much that I desire to reveal to you so that we can walk in one accord. Beloved child, draw near unto Me and I will draw nearer unto you. It is with hope and confidence that I want you to grow in the knowledge of your identity in Me because when you know who you are and Whose you are nothing will be able to hinder you from moving forward, says the Lord.

I’VE GOT YOU COVERED

Beloved child, uncertainty can be paralyzing. When you become unsure of who you are and where you are on your journey you begin to lose momentum and instead of moving forward you find yourself stagnate or even moving backward. I know that hope deferred can zap you of the strength and fortitude that is necessary and vital to you pressing into your purpose and destiny. Beloved I have taken all of these things into consideration but My command still remains that you must press forward. You can press forward knowing that I have got you covered. I am your God and I am with you. I am always working behind the scenes and all things are working together for your good. I am always watching over My word in you to bring it to fulfillment; My Word will not fail, it cannot fail. So even as you see the shaking, even as you feel the shaking know that I am the solid Rock and Foundation, I am your Shield and your Refuge, I am your Comfort and your Strength, I am your Beginning and your End, I am your Provision and your Protection. I have got you covered, go forward, be strong and very courageous I will never let My righteous one fall, says the Lord.

Psalm 139:7-12 “I can never escape from your Spirit! I can never get away from your presence! 8 If I go up to heaven, you are there; if I go down to the grave, you are there. 9 If I ride the wings of the morning, if I dwell by the farthest oceans, 10 even there your hand will guide me, and your strength will support me. 11 I could ask the darkness to hide me and the light around me to become night— 12 but even in darkness I cannot hide from you. To you the night shines as bright as day. Darkness and light are the same to you.”

The Gift

James 1:17 “Every good gift and every perfect ( free, large, full) gift is from above; it comes down from the Father of all [that gives] light, in [the shining of] Whom there can be no variation [rising or setting] or shadow cast by His turning [as in an eclipse].”

My beloved child I have freely given to you out of the treasures of heaven. There is nothing that I have withheld from you; you have all that you need for life and godliness. It is My good pleasure that you should live in a measure of prosperity that freely and continuously flows out of My abundance. Out of My great love for you My child I bestow to you a heritage and an inheritance that can never spoil, rot or fade. As you continue to walk in My Presence you will know the fullness of My presents. As you shout out loud a praise of thanksgiving you will open up the doors of blessings that will pour out a measure that is too much for you to contain and you thereby become an instrument of My overflow in the earth. You shall enjoy My abundance, and My people will feast on My good gifts.

My Son Jesus is My ultimate gift you. The Gift of God cannot be purchase with money for it has already been paid in full by the Blood. The gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus your Lord. In your Savior Jesus new life is poured out generously. In Him your relationship with Me has been fully and you have been given us back your lives. So everything you have and everything you are gifts from God. You already have all you need. You already have more access to God than you can handle. Beloved you must know you have been given these gifts because you now belong to Christ Jesus. You have need of nothing.

So I say to you that even in trial and difficulty walk in the power of the gifting that I have given to you. You have been given the gift on unending help and confidence, you have been enlivened and you have been invigorated to run the race by the manifest power of the gift. For it has been written that My gifts and callings are under full warranty—never canceled, never rescinded. So today as each of you has received a gift by way of a particular spiritual talent, or a gracious divine endowment use it for one another as to show yourself to be faithful stewards of the gifts granted to you by means of My unmerited favor. In other words, stir up the gift of God which is in you because the gift of Myself is the very best of God poured out for you. Now is the time to be bold, courageous and empowered with My gifts, says the Lord.

Romans 11:29 "For God's gifts and His call are irrevocable. [He never withdraws them when once they are given, and He does not change His mind about those to whom He gives His grace or to whom He sends His call.]"

Galatians 5:22 (MSG) "But what happens when we live God's way? He brings gifts into our lives, much the same way that fruit appears in an orchard—things like affection for others, exuberance about life, serenity. We develop a willingness to stick with things, a sense of compassion in the heart, and a conviction that a basic holiness permeates things and people. We find ourselves involved in loyal commitments, not needing to force our way in life, able to marshal and direct our energies wisely."

I have got My eye on you

Psalm 32:8 “The Lord says, “I will guide you along the best pathway for your life. I will advise you and watch over you.”

My Beloved Child these are the days in which you must rest assuredly that I have My eyes fixed on you. Although you have had to endure much and have been in a period of waiting know that I have not left you or forsaken you. It is My solemn and eternal vow that I will not forget you nor will I forget all of the promises that I have made to you. Look and see that I have inscribed you on the palms of My hands. For is it not also written that I will give My angels charge over you to guard and to watch over you closely and carefully and on their hands they will bear you up lest you strike your foot against a stone? You are My precious and prized possession, My chosen and My beloved. I have you surrounded and protected on every side. You shall go out and return in safety all the days of your life. I have a perfect and good plan for your life and I will keep watch over you until these things have come to pass. I will lead and guide you as the Good Shepherd. I will counsel you and direct your every step as a cloud by day and as a fire by night. I see the weapon of fear aimed at you; the enemy of your soul is coming in like a flood to keep you locked into your past but I say again and I command you to be fully persuaded of this: your Abba watches over you, I am the shade at your right hand. The sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night. I will keep you from all harm, I will watch over your life. I will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore, says the Lord.

Psalm 121:8 “The Lord keeps watch over you as you come and go, both now and forever.”

I will end your season of captivity

Jeremiah 29:10-14 (NLT) “This is what the LORD says: “You will be in Babylon for seventy years. But then I will come and do for you all the good things I have promised, and I will bring you home again. 11 For I know the plans I have for you,” says the LORD. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. 12 In those days when you pray, I will listen. 13 If you look for me wholeheartedly, you will find me. 14 I will be found by you,” says the LORD. “I will end your captivity and restore your fortunes. I will gather you out of the nations where I sent you and will bring you home again to your own land.”

Beloved child to everything there is a season; this means there is a certain beginning to every level of your life but there is also a certain end. Seasons are marked by certain characteristics that ultimately lead to My bigger plan in and for the earth. Certainly as the spring follows the winter so I have ordained and appointed a time of freedom, fruitfulness and prosperity to follow a season of captivity, barrenness and lack. In your season of captivity you were subject to those things that inhibited and confined you but were for the purpose of pruning, sharpening and preparing you for your destiny and purpose. Now I will bring you out of that narrow place and I will enlarge your borders and your territory in your season of freedom. In this season of freedom you will breakout and breakthrough in My promise and you shall experience all the goodness that I so freely bestow on you because of My great favor, love, mercy and grace toward you. I am saying to you today that an appointed time is in your midst. I will end your season of captivity and restore your hope for the days of freedom that are just ahead. I am He who has set the captives free; now stand in My freedom and move without restraint or restriction into your destiny, says the Lord.

1 Chronicles 4:10 “Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, “Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory! Let your hand be with me, and keep me from harm so that I will be free from pain.” And God granted his request.”

You have been established

Ephesians 3:16-19 (NIV) “I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, 17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, 18 may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, 19 and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.”

This week as I was warring through an emotional situation I heard the Lord say to me; You have been fully established. The word established is defined as thriving: started or set up long enough ago and sufficiently successful to suggest likely continuation or permanence; accepted as true: generally recognized as being true or valid; successful: having gained public recognition in a sphere of activity; growing successfully: growing strongly; legally recognized: legally recognized and sometimes financially supported as an official national institution; recognized time-honored and proven

And the Lord says, beloved I have poured out the fullness of My love through My Son and My love for you is completely infallible. My love is incapable of making a mistake. It is incapable of failing and incapable of being mistaken in all matters of principle and truth as it pertains to your life. My love for you is dependable, unfailing, foolproof, reliable, sound, fail-safe, surefire, trustworthy, steady, solid, certain and sure. This is the love in which you have been fully established. My desire for you in this season is to grasp the fullness of My love. As you come to fully know and be persuaded of this love you will be filled beyond even your comprehension. You will be filled with My peace and My joy and you will come to stand firmly on and be completely rooted in the promises that I have made to you even before the foundation of the world. Now I command you to take a firm hold, to embrace, and to seize this love that has now been revealed through My Son and to show eager and prompt willingness and acceptance that nothing in all of creation will ever be able to separate you from the love of your Father. Even as you patiently endure the trials and temptations that have come you must know that I have allowed them for the benefit of maturing you and stretching you, but, I have also used them as an opportunity to lead your heart into a full understanding and expression of My love. You have been established in Love now be empowered and go forward in this same Love.

Colossians 1:22-24 (NIV) “But now he has reconciled you by Christ’s physical body through death to present you holy in his sight, without blemish and free from accusation— 23 if you continue in your faith, established and firm, and do not move from the hope held out in the gospel. This is the gospel that you heard and that has been proclaimed to every creature under heaven, and of which I, Paul, have become a servant.”

Fuel your Greatness

Beloved, I am establishing you in this season. You must know that I have a purpose for your life that is bigger than the pain and the trial and the problems and the chaos and the doubt that tries to hold you down and keep you from moving forward. I am going to show you why I breathed into you the breath of life. I am going to reveal to you the plans that I have ordained from before the foundation of the world. And I am now going to manifest new things that I have set in place for you and for My manifested purpose and glory. So I say to you fuel your greatness; stir-up and stimulate the destiny and purpose that I have place inside of you. When you do this you will know without a doubt that it is I who has called you and it is I who will bring all these things to pass. Don’t despise little things because little things can be great things when called, ordained and anointed of Me. You will accomplish all that I have created you to do. Get your focus back and pursue your purpose with tenacity in whatever state you find yourself today. Whether you are in plenty or in lack; in doubt or in faith I will hear your every cry and every groan and I will meet you at the point of your need and complete that which I have started in you. You must shift your focus for have I not commanded you to keep your eye on that which is eternal? My beloved, this is about destiny and purpose and I have called you to overcome; I have called you to complete victory. In this day, your pain will produce your purpose and you will get to where I have called you; your destiny is eternity. Make this a part of your new mindset, your eternal mindset; in Me every setback is an opportunity for a comeback because I will use what the enemy meant for your destruction and I will turn it around so that it produces eternal good. It is now high time for you to fuel your greatness, stir up the gift of God that is on the inside of you and press forward. Your hope does not rest in your ability to overcome but in the overcoming power that I have poured out in abundance for you, says the Lord.

2 Timothy 1:6-7 “That is why I would remind you to stir up (rekindle the embers of, fan the flame of, and keep burning) the [gracious] gift of God, [the inner fire] that is in you by means of the laying on of my hands [with those of the elders at your ordination]. 7For God did not give us a spirit of timidity (of cowardice, of craven and cringing and fawning fear), but [He has given us a spirit] of power and of love and of calm and well-balanced mind and discipline and self-control.”

Keep Advancing

Galatians 6:9 (NLT) “So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up.”

Beloved, I say this to you tenderly do not give up now. This is where I am reminding you to look again, believe again, and trust again. This is where you must push to receive. There are many things going on both physically and spiritually that you know not of. These things are happening behind the scenes but they have been working together for your good. Even in your distress I say to you cry out to Me for help and I will hear your voice and come to help you. Holy Spirit, your Comforter is working to bring comfort to your weary heart, mind and soul. Know that you have not been forsaken or abandoned because I have even dispatched ministering angels who will assist you along the path that I have ordained. You lack nothing and have all that you need for life and godliness so do not fear. Stay focused on the assignment that I have given you for this season and you will amazed at all that you will accomplish as you patiently and obediently endure. I Am directing your path beloved, and I know the way that you should take. Trust Me, and just keep advancing. You are coming forth as pure gold when all has been said and done in accordance to My perfect will and in My perfect timing, says the Lord.

Psalms 57:2 (NKJV) "I will cry out to God Most High, To God who performs all things for me."

I am your Ever-Present God

Isaiah 41:10 (AMP) “Fear not [there is nothing to fear], for I am with you; do not look around you in terror and be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen and harden you to difficulties, yes, I will help you; yes, I will hold you up and retain you with My [victorious] right hand of rightness and justice.”

My beloved child, when you are feeling alone and you believe you still have such a long way to go before you reach your destined place know that I am with you and will keep watch over you with care. I take careful notice of you wherever you may go, for I have vowed this one thing and I will never take it back; I will never leave you or forsake you. I will not leave you until I have done all of which I have told you I would do with you, and for you. You will not be overcome with fear and every doubt shall cease as your faith soars in My presence for I am with you to rescue and save you. I will draw you out of despair with My love, so be strong and do the work that I have assigned you in this hour. Be alert and be courageous because My presence will be as a fortifying wall to you in this hour. Although I am not with you in body you are blessed for it is not by might, nor by power but by My Spirit and there is no distance in Spirit because He lives on the inside. Stand in firmness, be solid and steadfast in your faith; leaning on and walking in absolute trust and confidence in My power, in My wisdom, in My goodness and in My presence. So run straight into My arms I am your Ever-present God; you are never alone, says the Lord.

My Best is yet to come

Psalm 27:13 "I would have despaired unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living."

The enemy of your soul has been relentless in getting you to focus on your natural circumstances. But as you use wisdom you will see this is only evidence of the fact that he knows the promise if coming to pass and his time of killing, stealing and destroying is coming to an end. As many things are shaking around you the enemy desires to reduce you to reliance on your natural abilities of taste, touch see, smell and hear. But, I say to you there is a supernatural posture that is required of you in this hour. The very best that I have planned for you cannot be realized in the natural. For you to walk in your very best you must look beyond your natural senses. This supernatural place is your place of inheritance. So yes, there are giants in the land but, I have taught your hands to war, I have taught you to rely on Me in your wilderness and to trust that I am always with you. I am still the cloud by day and the pillar of fire by night that goes before you to lead you and guide you in all of your ways. Beloved child, in Me is the fullness of joy and I know that in this hour that My joy will be your fortifying banner of strength and rejuvenation. You need not be afraid of what you see and what you hear. I am still your God who knows the plans I have for you. I am still You Father who will supply for you out of My riches in glory. I have created all things and I own it all and I have poured all things out to you as My delight and good pleasure because I love you and you are Mine. You will experience the fullness of My Promise here in the earth. All things that I have promised will come to pass. Whose report will you believe? Hold on to Me and do not let go of your faith in your Faithful God because My very best is still yet to come, says the Lord.

Your best is the least you can do

Beloved I have said in My Word that it is not by might, nor by power but by My eternal Spirit that you shall know, understand and receive all things. I have watched you toil in your ability and to only find yourself coming up short time and time again. I want to tell you today that your very best is the least you can do. I do not warrant My work and power in you by your own ability to do and to be. I know what I have placed inside of you. I know the tasks of which I have ordained for you to perform with success and for My glory. I know the Word that I have spoken concerning you and in you and I am He who watches over every word to bring it to its fullness. All that I desire to reveal to you in this hour will require you to answer My call to go beyond your natural ability and tap into My supernatural ability. This supernatural knowledge that I have reserved for My faithful and obedient is being pour out now. There are things that you need to know that are vital to your future and these things are only known by My Spirit and can only be revealed and taught by My Spirit. Your best efforts will never be enough; you must learn to fervently seek Me and rely on and trust in Me and My wisdom in this hour. I desire to make known to you secret things, things kept hidden and set for revealing in such a time as this. All things that I have planned for your lives can be made known to you as you inquire of Me and humble yourself and set your heart to know and understand the plans and strategy of heaven. So I say to you come up higher, tap into the supernatural flow of heaven and I will show you things never before seen or understood.  My desire is to bring you into the supernatural; this is the place where you realize that you have come to end of yourself and you are now moving in a strength and resolve beyond your own human ability. Surrender your own strategy and lay aside your own agenda because in this hour your very best is the least you can do, says the Lord.

Isaiah 55:6-9 (AMP) “Seek, inquire for, and require the Lord while He may be found [claiming Him by necessity and by right]; call upon Him while He is near. 7Let the wicked forsake his way and the unrighteous man his thoughts; and let him return to the Lord, and He will have love, pity, and mercy for him, and to our God, for He will multiply to him His abundant pardon. 8For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways, says the Lord. 9For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts.”

I Am your God

My beloved child, even as you continue to face many challenges you need only know that I Am with you. I am Your Father, Your Comforter and your Friend. When you cannot seem to see your way clear you must know that I know the plans that I have for you. As you continue to press forward know that I have made a way for you, My righteous one. Do you fully understand what I mean when I say that I will never leave you nor forsake you? Have you received the fullness of the revelation that there is no place that you can go to escape My love and My presence? You will need to be confidently assured of this in the days ahead. When many will walk in disbelief and unrest you will be safe and secure in My arms. Do not be afraid for I am Your God, do not be dismayed for I am now and forever your Savior. Come in without fear or hesitation and make your dwelling in the secret place of My presence and you shall indeed be kept stable and fixed under My shadow because no foe, no test, trial or difficulty can withstand My power. I Am the Lord, your Refuge, your Fortress and your God; therefore, lean on Me, rely on Me and confidently trust in Me. Even as darkness surrounds you seeking to drown out the Light that is in you, know that I will deliver you; I will cover you and shield you in the day of trouble. Therefore call to Me and I will answer, speak to Me and I will hear, ask of Me and I will answer, seek Me and you will find Me, knock on the Door and it shall be opened to you, cry out to Me and I will hear and deliver, only believe, only believe, says the Lord.

Psalm 91:14-16 “Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore will I deliver him; I will set him on high, because he knows and understands My name [has a personal knowledge of My mercy, love, and kindness--trusts and relies on Me, knowing I will never forsake him, no, never]. 15He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him. 16With long life will I satisfy him and show him My salvation.

Unconventional Provision

Exodus 15:22-27 “Then Moses led the people of Israel away from the Red Sea, and they moved out into the desert of Shur. They traveled in this desert for three days without finding any water. 23 When they came to the oasis of Marah, the water was too bitter to drink. So they called the place Marah (which means “bitter”). 4 Then the people complained and turned against Moses. “What are we going to drink?” they demanded. 25 So Moses cried out to the LORD for help, and the LORD showed him a piece of wood. Moses threw it into the water, and this made the water good to drink. It was there at Marah that the LORD set before them the following decree as a standard to test their faithfulness to him. 26 He said, “If you will listen carefully to the voice of the LORD your God and do what is right in his sight, obeying his commands and keeping all his decrees, then I will not make you suffer any of the diseases I sent on the Egyptians; for I am the LORD who heals you.” 27 After leaving Marah, the Israelites traveled on to the oasis of Elim, where they found twelve springs and seventy palm trees. They camped there beside the water.”

My child I have made a way for you, and your provision has already been supplied. You need only move in obedience to My commands and submit to My way of doing, being and thinking. As you yield in obedience you will discover that there are steps of obedience that I have called you to that will lead to the prophetic fulfillment of My promise for your life. And although these steps may seem out of the ordinary it is indeed still My way of getting you to the place of your supply. My requests of obedience may be way off of the norm but I am God and I am not bound by or function or operate in accordance with the conventional. I have made every provision for you. I have set everything thing in place and taken every step to meet every possible or expected need that you have today and in the future. To see the full manifestation of these things of which I am speaking you must yield to Me in complete obedience thereby showing your faithfulness to the destiny that I have designed and ordained for you. There is a place of testing that I have ordained for you to walk through into the place of obedience and over-abundant provision. I am setting you up for the establishment of your destiny so yield completely; even to My unconventional method of provision, says the Lord.

Stay in assigned place

Exodus 33:14-16 (NIV) “The LORD replied, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.” 15 Then Moses said to him, “If your Presence does not go with us, do not send us up from here. 16 How will anyone know that you are pleased with me and with your people unless you go with us? What else will distinguish me and your people from all the other people on the face of the earth?”

And the Lord says, Many of My children have gotten out from the place where I have planted them and are neglecting to rest in My perfect timing. You have allowed circumstances to keep you from standing shore-footedly in your place of assignment. I say to you in-spite of all; stand and stay in your position. Many have been caught out of position. Many have allowed the enemy to lure them into a place that I have not ordained. Many have listened to the voice of another and have allowed their circumstances, situations and emotions to deafen their ears to the voice of their Shepherd. I say to you get back in line; get back into your position now. This position has been assigned to you, therefore, every provision has been made for you to be blessed, and for you to increase and multiply. This is also your ordained place of instruction and provision and as you stand in this place your adversary will indeed try to draw you out into unfamiliar territory. You must be persuaded that it is only your continued obedience in this assigned place that will protect you and propel you into your destiny. I have a hope and a future planned for you; do not get impatient and step out before Me. I have provision in this place so that you will always be fully satisfied. This place is the place of fulfillment and manifestation so do not weary in well doing and do not weary in waiting for just at the right time, if you faint not, you shall see the promise fulfilled. Do not lose hope for the promise now. Stay in position, stay in your assigned place and I will supply new courage and new boldness that is needed to press through the battle and into the promise.

Do not focus on the longevity of the staying in your position but instead stay focused on the fulfillment in My appointed time. Beloved, there is no true blessing to be had outside of Me and My perfect timing. I have told you not to think more highly of yourself than you ought. The devil has come in to pervert this and My children now suffer from a lack of identity and do not know who they are in Me. Beloved this is extreme error and it will lead to your eventual defeat. You must close your ears to the lies of the enemy and stand fast in your position. When you keep your position you will not fall prey to the devil’s lure because I am your God who covers you and keeps you. And you must know who you are in Me. You must know that I have declared that you are My beloved, overcomers, victorious, anointed, and My righteous ones who are seated in heavenly places with Christ Jesus. As you come to know your identity in Me you will be able to stay in your assigned place.

Position yourselves to receive My blessings by getting into the places that I have called you to and staying there in that assigned place until I say to move or shift. You must not go anywhere that I do not lead you to go and do not leave anywhere until I tell instruct you to leave. Being in the wrong place at the wrong time can be costly; mentally, spiritually, emotionally and financially. I will help you to get into proper position and grant you the grace to stay there if you will only submit and obey. It is in the place of obedience that My blessing flows. You have to follow My voice and allow Me to order your steps. Beloved I say this to you again lovingly, yet with all authority; stay in your assigned place until I say to move because at the appointed time I will instruct you in the way to go. Do not be caught out of your assigned place when My Spirit is ready to move.

Psalm 37:23 (AMP)”The steps of a [good] man are directed and established by the Lord when He delights in his way [and He busies Himself with his every step].”

Psalm 102:13(NIV) “You will arise and have compassion on Zion, for it is time to show favor to her; the appointed time has come.”

Psalm 23:1-3 (NKJV)“The LORD is my shepherd, I [a]shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside [b]quiet waters. 3 He restores my soul; He guides me in the [c]paths of righteousness For His name’s sake.

Sanctified for His use

John 17:16-18 (AMP) “They are not of the world (worldly, belonging to the world), [just] as I am not of the world. 17Sanctify them [purify, consecrate, separate them for Yourself, make them holy] by the Truth; Your Word is Truth. 18 Just as You sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world.”

Beloved I chose you before the foundation of the world and you were conceived in My mind even before I knit you together in your mother’s womb. It was My good pleasure to make you in fear and wonder. Having done all of this you must know and understand that I did so with the motive of love. I purified you, consecrated you and separated you unto Myself because I love you with an everlasting love. I created you for relationship with Myself. I sanctified you for My use; freed you from sin, making you holy. It is I Who has approved you therefore, you are fully approved. Do not look to man or to your human effort for approval or justification; I am He who justifies. The season has come where those whom I have set apart must rise up without fear. There is a new thing coming forth now and I have made you ready. Put off the fear and negativity and clothed yourself in faith and godly wisdom. If you will allow Me I will wholly sanctify every thought, word and deed and bring you into perfect alignment with My perfect will. You have been sanctified for My use therefore, go forth now with boldness, courage and integrity knowing that I watch over My Word so that it performs to the fullest and I will accomplish My desired result.

Spirit to spirit

And the Lord says, your battle is not against flesh and blood and for you to continue to war from this place of your limited human understanding it will continue to fuel your disillusionment and will ultimately lead to a place of defeat. You are a citizen of the Kingdom therefore you must war from a Kingdom perspective. Although I have gifted you with your intelligence, your emotions and your senses unless they are fully submitted they will prove ineffective in the wars ahead. This war although it plays out in the natural is birthed in the spiritual. Therefore, you war from a place of the supernatural using the supernatural weapons that I have provided for you. The only reason your situation looks overwhelming is because you have not yet fully grasped the victory that has already been set in place for you. The victory is yours when you use My mighty weapons to exist outside of the familiarity of your humanity. I am calling you higher to a place where you live, move and have your being in the Spirit. It is in this place of the spirit where the walls come down, obstacles are made obsolete, your thoughts become fully submitted and you come into the fullness of the knowledge of Me. There is no difficult situation or difficult person that cannot be overcome through your submission to My way of thinking, being, loving and warring. The time has come for you to fully receive the revelation that the things of the kingdom are of the spirit and they require spiritual weapons if they are to fulfill their spiritual purpose.

"Are you so foolish? After beginning with the Spirit, are you now trying to attain your goal by human effort?" Galatians 3:3

He requires a response

Exodus 19:7-9 (NLT) “So Moses returned from the mountain and called together the elders of the people and told them everything the LORD had commanded him. 8 And all the people responded together, “We will do everything the LORD has commanded.” So Moses brought the people’s answer back to the LORD. 9 Then the LORD said to Moses, “I will come to you in a thick cloud, Moses, so the people themselves can hear me when I speak with you. Then they will always trust you.” Moses told the LORD what the people had said.”

Beloved in view of all that I have spoken to you in days past a response is now required. How will you respond? Even as you are feeling wearied and even overwhelmed My command to you is to continue advancing; you must continue to move forward. Beloved, I am still calling you to pursue, overtake and recover all. Know that your response is reflected in your focus. Are you keeping your eyes on Me or are you still consumed with your situation and not the One who is able to transform your situation instantaneously? You must respond by obedience. You must respond in trust. You must respond with belief. Abraham believed Me and responded with faith. Even when time and his body seem not to support the promise he looked not on what he could not do but what I said I would do. Joshua believed Me and responded in action and trust. When Joshua was told to go forward although he did not trust in his own ability He believed Me that I had gone before him and he went anyway as He trusted in My ability. The three Hebrew boys believed Me and responded in steadfast boldness and unwavering hope. When the three Hebrew boys were told to bow down to idols they refused knowing that I was able to deliver them both in life and death. I say to you, respond in faith, respond in trust. Do not allow your fears and doubts to overwhelm you and cause you to stagnate or turn back. Respond and stand firm in your faith; respond with praise and worship, respond in good works, respond with love. I do require a response that affirms that you belief Me and that you will obey Me regardless of the past failures, your present trials or your future doubts. I will honor your response of faith, hope, love belief and trust. Today, let your response be, Father I will do everything that You have commanded me to do. Let Me hear you say, Father I will not give way to doubt, fear or hopelessness. Come boldly because nothing can stop or delay what I have promised and at the appointed time that which I have decreed shall come to pass. Again I say do not respond from a place of doubt. Response from the place of the promise, respond from the place of already having received all that I have promised. Come on into My presence because you have been given access, come on in and respond and I will meet you there in the place of promise because My response is still Yes and Amen!

Keep your eye on Me!

Matthew 14:28-32 (CEB) "Peter replied, “Lord, if it’s you, order me to come to you on the water.” 29 And Jesus said, “Come.” Then Peter got out of the boat and was walking on the water toward Jesus. 30 But when Peter saw the strong wind, he became frightened. As he began to sink, he shouted, “Lord, rescue me!” 31 Jesus immediately reached out and grabbed him, saying, “You man of weak faith! Why did you begin to have doubts?” 32 When they got into the boat, the wind settled down."

And the Spirit of the Lord says, I have given you the faith to go beyond. I say to you in this season that the faith to walk on water is available if you would not doubt and only believe. The tactic of the enemy is to get you distracted by the storm. The enemy wants you to look at your circumstances so that you would take your eyes off Me and give way to your fears and doubts. I say to you today that you have been given power to walk on water even in the midst of the storm. You have been given the power to look into the storm and find strength to walk into the seemingly impossible. You have been given overcoming power as you stay focused on the Savior. You do this by keeping your eye on Me. You do this by obeying My command to come forward. You do this by faith. You have been willing to come to Me even in the midst of your difficulties and I have beckoned you to come knowing that I would honor your faith to step out and go beyond the natural into the supernatural of My Presence. If you will take your eyes and your attention off of the storm that is raging about you and keep your eyes on Me nothing will be impossible for you. With Me all things are possible and a part from Me you can do nothing. The enemy has come in to distract you and his goal is to get you to take your eyes off Me, his goal is to get you to become so overwhelmed that you forget the promises that I have made to you. He wants to keep you from hearing My voice and to keep you from seeing Me as I AM. I AM always with you, ready to help and to rescue you from every storm. I say to you cry out, cry out because your cry will come to My ear and I will respond without delay. Keep your eye on Me and I will strengthen your faith to soar and not sink.

Hebrews 12:2 “Looking away [from all that will distract] to Jesus, Who is the Leader and the Source of our faith [giving the first incentive for our belief] and is also its Finisher [bringing it to maturity and perfection]. He, for the joy [of obtaining the prize] that was set before Him, endured the cross, despising and ignoring the shame, and is now seated at the right hand of the throne of God.”

My ways are perfect

Isaiah 55:9 "For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts.

My husband and I were discussing the “difficult times” and the travail that is going forth from the earth. He remarked that although we are going through difflicult financial times and even ministries are seeing a decrease in giving that he is sure that God would supply His people to finish building what He has begun in them even through difficult times and He would rebuild all that the enemy destroyed and stolen in the last season. I sensed a firm belief in his heart that God would indeed provide for his people. Even as my husband spoke in faith God gave me a look into his heart and I was led to say to him before I got out of the car, “Honey don’t worry God already has people assigned to help us rebuild our walls also.”

And the Spirit of the Lord says, You must know that I will rebuild all of the broken walls of your life. You need not fear and you need not worry. I know that you have waited and I know that you have trusted; believing far beyond even your own natural ability to believe. I see the strategy of the enemy and I say to you he is not doing anything new. My Word declares that he comes only to kill, steal and destroy, but beloved child, I have come so that you can assuredly have a rich and satisfying life. So do not give up; now is the time to persevere. Your faith must now align with My reality. Do not grow weary in well-doing now; you have come too far to look back or to turn back now. You must relinquish the way you thought it should go, you must give up your methods and submit to My way. Surely I know all things for I am He who has ordained your yesterdays, todays and your tomorrows. Even though My ways are not your ways, I desire to make them known to you. My ways are higher than yours and you must rest confidently that they shall surely prevail. Now is the time to take your faith to the next level. This new level requires an unyielding trust in My plan. You already know that My plans are for your good. I have already prayed that your faith not fail you, so encourage yourself today because I shall not fail to do exactly as I have said. And you must also know that I delight in you. You are My joy and My portion. I am interested in every detail of your life. I love all of My children equally and I have no favorites. My promises for you are to bring you joy, peace and satisfaction. I will do it for YOU! I have an individual and specific plan of blessing for each of you. I have not forgotten you and I have not skipped over you; there is an appointed time and as you patiently rest in expectancy and anticipation you will see Me take you into My ordained promise for your life. Beloved My ways are not your ways and My thoughts are not your thoughts. My ways are miraculous and supernatural; they are not dependent on your possessions or your ability. Each of you are fearfully and wonderfully made, predestined, chosen and called before the foundation of the world. I am Your God My ways are perfect.

Psalm 18:30-32(AMP) "As for God, His way is perfect! The word of the Lord is tested and tried; He is a shield to all those who take refuge and put their trust in Him.31For who is God except the Lord? Or who is the Rock save our God,32The God who girds me with strength and makes my way perfect?"

Rapid Response

Daniel 10:12-14 (NLT) “Then he said, “Don’t be afraid, Daniel. Since the first day you began to pray for understanding and to humble yourself before your God, your request has been heard in heaven. I have come in answer to your prayer. 13 But for twenty-one days the spirit prince of the kingdom of Persia blocked my way. Then Michael, one of the archangels, came to help me, and I left him there with the spirit prince of the kingdom of Persia. 14 Now I am here to explain what will happen to your people in the future, for this vision concerns a time yet to come.”

Beloved child, I am speaking to the fear that is seeking to paralyze you today. I say that I have not given you a spirit of fear, but one of power, love and a sound mind. This spirit of fear is of the devil; he is a liar and a thief and it has been that way from the very beginning. Today I speak to this place of fear and I say do not be afraid. Do not be afraid because I am your Protector. Do not be afraid because I have set My watchman to watch over you at all times. Do not be afraid because I have given My angels charge over you lest you should dash your foot against a stone. Do not be afraid because I hear your tears and your prayers have come into My hearing. Do not be afraid because I am He who guards you in all of your ways. Do not be afraid because I have I am ready always to bring a rapid response to your request. I have heard and I have seen; My beloved I have not forgotten you. Nor have I forgotten the Word that I have spoken concerning you or the promises that have been commanded to come to pass at their appointed time. I have promised you that when you cry out that I will come to you speedily. My Word moves swiftly so as I have heard your prayers and even before a word was even uttered I looked upon your heart and set out to answer you according to My perfect will. I say to you today, do not allow the distractions of the enemy to frustrate you. Do not allow the delay tactics to cause you to faint and to become weak of faith and weary in well-doing. Trust and believe Me because My response is rapid and I never fail to meet your every need. Wait for the manifestation at the appointed time and in its due season. Continue to seek Me for wisdom and understanding and trust that there is a rapid response; hold on the answer is on the way.

Jeremiah 33:2-4 (NLT) “This is what the LORD says—the LORD who made the earth, who formed and established it, whose name is the LORD: 3 Ask me and I will tell you remarkable secrets you do not know about things to come. 4 For this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: You have torn down the houses of this city and even the king’s palace to get materials to strengthen the walls against the siege ramps and swords of the enemy.”

It is time to Push

Beloved, you must be steadfast in your possession of the promise. I have told you before and I will say it again until you have become fully persuaded; I am with you, I will never fail you and I will meets all of your needs. All of My precious promises are available to you today. You lack nothing and you have all that you need for life and godliness. I will never withhold anything good from you; in this I require that you be fully confident. So in this time of transition you must know that if you have not yet seen a manifestation or fulfillment of what you have asked and petitioned for that it is only a matter of time. If you have asked according to My will I will not fail to give it to you. At the appointed time all things shall come to pass as I have ordained them. Some things may seem to be delayed but there is no delay in My Kingdom; there is only the appointed time and the due season. So you must rest assuredly that I am the I Am. I am all that you need and I will never fail to make sure that in Me you are fully satisfied. Beloved child it is time to push. It is time to put away your fear and your doubt of the unknown because I go with you and I have gone before you. Here are My instructions to you; Push! Be strong and courageous and firm because I will be with you as you speak, and I will instruct you in what to say.” I will not fail you or abandon you. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze. And don’t be afraid of the people, for I will be with you and will protect you. I, the Lord, have spoken!” Now go!

1 John 5:13-15 (AMP) “I write this to you who believe in (adhere to, trust in, and rely on) the name of the Son of God [in [a]the peculiar services and blessings conferred by Him on men], so that you may know [with settled and absolute knowledge] that you [already] have life, [b]yes, eternal life. 14And this is the confidence (the assurance, the privilege of boldness) which we have in Him: [we are sure] that if we ask anything (make any request) according to His will (in agreement with His own plan), He listens to and hears us. 15And if (since) we [positively] know that He listens to us in whatever we ask, we also know [with settled and absolute knowledge] that we have [granted us as our present possessions] the requests made of Him.”

Kingdom Hauler

And the Lord says, I have called you out of obscurity for such a time as this. You may not be aware of all that I have invested in you but I have ordained you for a purpose much greater than you have yet to discover. You have been called to lead my people. You have been called to the place of leadership because you have carefully sought My wisdom and understanding in matters concerning the work I gave you and assigned to you in the last season. You have shown yourself to be faithful in the little and now I say; you will have much more responsibility in the days ahead. The weight of your responsibility may have seemed too weighty at times but you never backed down from the call. Instead you sought My counsel and direction and now you are learning what it means to truly be a leader. You have been continuous and even at times relentless in the tasks I have given you to do; even those that continue to prove to be laborious and sometimes overwhelming and beyond your ability. You are a kingdom hauler. You are a vessel that commands movement. As others look to your leadership they are provoked to raise their standard of leadership. Others are compelled to excellence in leadership and commitment because of what you demonstrate in your obedience and commitment to the kingdom. You are a billboard of faithfulness as have been a faithful demonstration even in seasons of difficulty and trial. Today I want you to be know, that truly you are a leader’s leader. Well done My good and faithful servant enter into your Father’s joy.

Matthew 25:21 “His master said to him, Well done, you upright (honorable, admirable) and faithful servant! You have been faithful and trustworthy over a little; I will put you in charge of much. Enter into and share the joy (the delight, the blessedness) which your master enjoys.”

Shift with Me

Isaiah 30:20-22 (AMP) “And though the Lord gives you the bread of adversity and the water of affliction, yet your Teacher will not hide Himself any more, but your eyes will constantly behold your Teacher. 21And your ears will hear a word behind you, saying, This is the way; walk in it, when you turn to the right hand and when you turn to the left. 22Then you will defile your carved images overlaid with silver and your molten images plated with gold; you will cast them away as a filthy bloodstained cloth, and you will say to them, Be gone!

And the Lord says, you have roamed around this mountain long enough. I command you to stop now from going around and round in circles and learn how to shift with Me. You have not gone this way before so I say to you, stay close. I have gone before you and the way has been made clear. If you will keep your eyes on Me you will not fail in succeeding to arrive in the place of promise that I have ordained and assigned as your portion. You are now moving in a place of victory because I have given you ears to hear. You are of My sheepfold; you only hear My voice and the voice of a stranger or a deceiver you shall not hear. You must stay alert and be on your guard for the enemy of your soul will not relent in his attempt to kill, steal and destroy. I Am come to reveal Myself to you like never before. I will show you a portion of My glory not revealed in former seasons. You have asked Me to show you My glory and teach you of My ways so I say to you that I Am your Teacher. As a good student be careful to allow Me to instruct you, coach you and train you as you press forward into your destiny. My desire is to impart to you knowledge that this world can never understand because it is divine and eternal. I want you to come into the full knowledge of the Kingdom that you have been called to and ordained to rule and reign as kings and priests. I want you to become skilled in your authority here in the earth, to occupy, to have dominion over your assigned portion. Beloved I had to send you in a way in which you had never gone before so that I could teach you and instruct you to war, to rule and to reign. Now you have emerged as My victorious ones and over-comers mantled in My authority. I know that difficulty can cause you to close your eyes, deafen your ears and harden your heart but I say to you today just like your Elder Brother you have come forth as one submitted and obedient because of what you have endured and suffered. And now you possess knowledge and ability that could not have been produced no where other than in the fires of purification and the furnace of affliction. It was I the Lord who allowed it so that you would know the fullness of Who I AM and who you are in Me. Know that this day I will give you eyes to see Me in a brand new way. You will know that I have never left you; I have not forsaken you, in-fact I have been by your side all the while. You have been saying, Lord show me my way, show me what is necessary for me to press forward because I do not know what to do. I say to you My child only watch, listen and obey for I Am with you to instruct you into the cloud the glory, so shift with Me now; this is the Way; walk in it. I Am the voice that is with you no matter where you go.

Jeremiah 33:3 (AMP) “Call to Me and I will answer you and show you great and mighty things, fenced in and hidden, which you do not know (do not distinguish and recognize, have knowledge of and understand).”

Our Source

Isaiah 26:3-4 “You will guard him and keep him in perfect and constant peace whose mind [both its inclination and its character] is stayed on You, because he commits himself to You, leans on You, and hopes confidently in You. 4So trust in the Lord (commit yourself to Him, lean on Him, hope confidently in Him) forever; for the Lord God is an everlasting Rock [the Rock of Ages].”

My child, I see you seeking after My peace to bring you comfort in this season where the enemy of your soul is seeking to distract you to get you off course; in this My heart delights and I am well-pleased. I say to you today, as you keep your focus on Me My peace will continuously envelop you and rob the enemy of his victory in your situation. As you lean confidently on Me, keeping your focus on kingdom things the tactics of the enemy will fail in their attempts against you. The kind of peace that rightfully belongs to you does not come from this world. This peace originates and is sustained in heaven; it is divine peace. Beloved, set your mind upon Me and I will keep you completely whole, nothing missing, nothing broken. I will keep you steady on your feet as you keep straight your path to obtain My promises. You must depend on Me and hide yourself in Me and know that your victory is a sure thing as you rest confidently only in Me; your Source of all hope, peace and joy. Many of My children have with great failure and distress placed their confidence and trust in other things, places and people. They have even failed in their attempts to trust in themselves and their abilities. But this day you must know that it is only in Me you can trust. You can trust in My nature and My character; for it is one of faithfulness rooted in everlasting love. The days of shaking have begun, and only those who have been trained and submitted to the Word and have learned to rely on Me as the sole Source of support and maintenance shall be left standing.

Psalm 20:7 “Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.”

It is time to go higher, so what’s weighing you down and holding you back?

Beloved, I must tell you that I am so please with you. In seasons past you have had a great measure of understanding. You have learned to discern the moving of My Spirit and have learned to recognize My voice in the pasture to which I have sent you. Indeed you have set your whole heart, mind and spirit to seeking Me and in that I am well pleased and overwhelmed in the way in which you delight Me. Today I am sending forth a clarion call to all who will come up higher once again. To all who will hear My voice I am saying it is time to go higher so consider now what’s weighing you down. You must take an honest look at your condition and your position and then ask for the grace to let go of that which needs to be let go of and cut off all that holds you to your past and stifles the free flow of My Spirit in you. My desire is to reveal Myself to you more completely for the purpose of the destiny that I have planned for you. This place of destiny is like no other. This place requires a deeper level of submission, obedience and spiritual discipline. This place requires a greater understanding of My character and My nature, My power and My might. This place will require the supernatural; that is My super in your natural. Beloved, you shall go forth in deeper revelation of the purity of My wisdom and plans for your life, the advancement of the Body and the judgement of the earth. My desire is that you rise up in to a place of deeper and yet still deeper revelation so that you are capable of carrying the authority of Heaven to your generation. You are my conduit in the earth, My ambassador that brings heaven into the earth. Are you ready? Are you ready to go forth into the higher place where you take your rightful place of being seated in heavenly places with Me? There is a sound going forth which will speak to your flesh and your soul and cause complete submmission to the truth of who you are in Me. I Am He who created you, formed you and redeemed you. I have called you by name; you are Mine. I will be with you so that you are kept in perfect peace and nothing will overtake or overwhelm you. Do you hear Me? Do you trust Me? You are so precious in My sight and I have chosen you to know Me not only as the suffering Lamb but also your overcoming King. I say come up higher because I desire to commune with you and tell you of things that have been kept hidden in times past but will now be revealed. Come up higher so that I can give you prophetic insight of things to come so that you can decree and declare and by the word of your mouth and through the power of My Spirit it will come to pass. Come up higher now, for there is much I which to reveal to you.

Jeremiah 33:3 “Ask me and I will tell you remarkable secrets you do not know about things to come.”

I Am so proud of you!

Matthew 25:23 “His master said to him, Well done, you upright (honorable, admirable) and faithful servant! You have been faithful and trustworthy over a little; I will put you in charge of much. Enter into and share the joy (the delight, the blessedness) which your master enjoys.”

My Beloved child I want you to know My heart concerning you today; My hearts shouts through eternity; in you I Am well pleased and find much joyful delight. I Am He who guards your going out and your coming in and keeps you from all harm and watches over your life. I see your struggle and I see the heartache and the yearning of your soul because you so desire to be in continuous flow of My Spirit uninterrupted by your emotions, your doubts and your fears. Darling child, with My love I will calm all of your fears and silence the noise that seeks to drown out My still, small voice. So, let your heart’s cry go forth; let it resonate in heaven and I will hear you and come to you. Truly when My own cry out to Me, I will hear, for I Am compassionate and filled with everlasting love for you. I will send help to deliver you from all of your trouble and distress. Do not allow the cares of this world to distract you and cause you to be dismayed. I Am watching over you and I have seen your faithfulness. Rest in My love, rest beloved, just settle down, be still and rest. I am Your Father and in You I delight. I Am so proud of you. Now go forth knowing that I am calling you into the riches of My treasure which is My abundant joy and peace for all eternity.

Zephaniah 3:17 “The LORD thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing.”

Who would I be without Your grace?

Psalm 84:11 “For the Lord God is a Sun and Shield; the Lord bestows [present] grace and favor and [future] glory (honor, splendor, and heavenly bliss)! No good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly.”

The Lord has been speaking the word and work of grace into my heart over the last couple of weeks. He is teaching me to look at myself through the eyes of His grace and to continually draw from the treasure chest of grace that He has prepared for me even before the foundation of the world. As I continue to reflect on this awesome, miraculous and saving grace Holy Spirit brought to my spirit the song “Where would I be if not for Your grace?” but as I continue to draw nearer to Him to seek deeper revelation on grace Holy Spirit began to sow this question into my spirit; who would I be if not for your grace?

1 Corinthians 15:9-11 “For I am the least [worthy] of the apostles, who am not fit or deserving to be called an apostle, because I once wronged and pursued and molested the church of God [oppressing it with cruelty and violence]. 10But by the grace (the unmerited favor and blessing) of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me was not [found to be] for nothing (fruitless and without effect). In fact, I worked harder than all of them [the apostles], though it was not really I, but the grace (the unmerited favor and blessing) of God which was with me. 11So, whether then it was I or they, this is what we preach and this is what you believed [what you adhered to, trusted in, and relied on].”

And the Lord says to us today, My grace has always been and will always be sufficient for everything thing in your life. It is My grace, My unmerited, unearned favor and mercy that is at work in your life to produce good and eternal fruit. This grace came by way of My beloved Son so that it is by grace that you have believed and have yielded your life to Me. As you become recipients of My available grace you will speak My grace to every mountain and every obstacle that seeks to block your way and hinder your advancing. There is a shout of a double portion of grace going forward, grace, grace! You must consecrate your living in and by My grace. Today you must be fully persuaded to continue in this grace and you will grow and become strong in spirit, filled with wisdom and every favor and spiritual blessing shall be yours. It is by My grace that you shall finish your race with joy. Submit yourself to the commands and counsels and promises of My grace. For it is by My overflowing grace that you are being built up continually and by which you are receiving the fullness of your inheritance as you are supplied blessing after blessing and favor upon favor. Do not fail to receive My grace lest you will become blinded, hardened, and made insensible to My love and kindness. Your gifts talents and abilities come by way of My grace. Your victory comes by way of My grace and you will possess the promise only by My grace. You are promoted by My grace, you obtain favor from God and man by My grace. As a recipient of My Grace you are a recipient of My eternal compassion, generosity, endless patience, loyalty, and forgiveness. This is who you are by My grace; you are consecrated, purified and transformed, delivered from the reign and dominion of sin and in right standing with Me. You are a subject of My favor and mercy, selected and chosen by grace so that it is no longer by works or anything that you have done that you are made to be the righteousness of God. So delight in Me and look to Me joyfully and boldly. By grace when you pray I listen and I will help you and rescue you and manifest all that has been promised. Growing in grace you shall still bring forth fruit in old age; you shall be over-abundant in spiritual vitality and rich in trust, love, and contentment. My beloved it is by grace that your steps are ordered. So today cry out for help and you'll find My answer is always grace, grace and more grace.

2 Corinthians 9:8 “But He said to me, My grace (My favor and loving-kindness and mercy) is enough for you [sufficient against any danger and enables you to bear the trouble manfully]; for My strength and power are made perfect (fulfilled and completed) and show themselves most effective in [your] weakness. Therefore, I will all the more gladly glory in my weaknesses and infirmities, that the strength and power of Christ (the Messiah) may rest (yes, may pitch a tent over and dwell) upon me!”

A time to consecrate yourSELF

Romans 12:1 “I APPEAL to you therefore, brethren, and beg of you in view of [all] the mercies of God, to make a decisive dedication of your bodies [presenting all your members and faculties] as a living sacrifice, holy (devoted, consecrated) and well pleasing to God, which is your reasonable (rational, intelligent) service and spiritual worship.”

My beloved this is a season in which I am calling you to spiritual maturity. It is time for you to grow up in the area of sacrificing self. The time has now come for you to allow Me to try you and test you; you must allow Me to search out any wicked or adverse way in your soul, cleansing you thoroughly and giving you a new and clean heart so that you can be used by Me in this hour. I have used the last season to condition your heart in many ways that will lead you into your destiny. I have given you free will, therefore the only sacrifice that you can truly offer Me is that of your submission of self; your way of doing, being and thinking. It is My heart’s desire that you would humble yourself and come to Me in obedient submission. It gives Me delight that you would empty yourself of self so that I can fill you up with Myself. Today I am calling you to place your entire life before Me. Hand yourself over freely and without reluctance. Give yourself to Me knowing that your Creator can take dead men’s bones and cause them to live again. I can take what you consider dead and of no worth and make it priceless in the use of My glory. I can take what man considers obsolete and useless and turn it into something of eternal value. You must come to the divine revelation that your potential is maximized only as you yield to My great hand because the Spirit who lives in you is greater than the spirit who lives in the world. It is only by My Spirit that you are free to experience new and abundant life. Your flesh responds to the natural and is motivated only by circumstances and situation in which it is gratified. But your spirit listens to, adheres to, is obedient to and submits and responds to the Spirit in which I Am gloried. I am calling My people to new levels in the spirit and only those who belong to the Spirit, and have their entire being submitted to the Spirit will be able to fully comprehend and function in this new level. Beloved the result of your complete consecration will be astounding to you and all who shall see and know you. As you are led forth by My Light you will have drawing power and many shall come into the kingdom because of you. You shall radiate in My prosperity and be filled with abundant joy. In My favor, pleasure and goodwill I have had mercy, love and pity for you and now you shall beautify the place of My sanctuary. 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. And you shall dwell in peace and righteousness all the days of your life and you shall be eternally clothed in My praise and salvation. And you shall not adorn yourselves any longer in the flesh or in worldly garments but I, Myself shall be your Glory and your Beauty. As a seed I have planted you watering you so that you bud and grow, multiplying in the radiance of My Son so that I may be glorified. (Romans 12:1-2) So here's what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary life—your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life—and place it before God as an offering. Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him. Don't become so well-adjusted to your culture that you fit into it without even thinking. Instead, fix your attention on God. You'll be changed from the inside out. Readily recognize what he wants from you, and quickly respond to it. Unlike the culture around you, always dragging you down to its level of immaturity, God brings the best out of you, develops well-formed maturity in you. The hour has come and the sound is going forth; you have been called to be fully consecrated committed, sanctified, dedicated and set-apart for My use. Let he who has an ear hear what the Spirit of the Lord is saying to His people today.

Ephesians 2:10 "For we are God's [own] handiwork (His workmanship), recreated in Christ Jesus, [born anew] that we may do those good works which God predestined (planned beforehand) for us [taking paths which He prepared ahead of time], that we should walk in them [living the good life which He preparranged and made ready for us to live]."
