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.”
