I am able to do all things. However, there are some things that I will not do. I will not change your will for you. You must pray, "Let God's will be done." Until you have prayed that prayer, the exertion of power that flows from your own will shall cause you to travel in speculative directions and not travel after my spirit. Many are directed by speculative power and not by my power and my spirit. They are directed by what they see, recall, determine, and think. Be directed by my spirit and my power, then will the force in your life be of me and not of yourself. Your power is not adequate to accomplish the things that must be done, for without me you can do nothing. Do not determine that you are a wheel or an axle because you can produce motion. Though you may be able to move people with your words, that do not mean you are producing true spirituality. The false prophets move people by their words, and many lying signs and false wonders are seen among them, yet they make the people twice the children of hell that they would have been. What are you producing in the people that you minister unto?

If you minister according to the spirit of error, you will meet vipers that you cannot shake off in the fires of the hour. You can only walk on serpents and scorpions if you continue to minister according to the spirit of truth. I have given my people power to tread upon all these things. Do not accept any praise for yourself, for I will not share my glory with no other. I have given you power over diseases and sicknesses. Though you lay hands on the sick and they recover, take no glory or praise unto yourself. Many serve their own bellies and by good works and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple. These do not serve me. I will give you power to discern that which is good. You must be wise unto that which is good and simple concerning evil. I have sent forth the force of my power into your life, and Satan is bruised under your feet. Walk in the obedience of faith and preach the only wise God, your Savior, Jesus Christ.

 

#429

Do not rejoice because the spirits are subject unto you, but rejoice that I have written your name in heaven. Many become aware of the power that they have with me and use it for their own influence. They fall away because they minister out of a wrong motive. I have given you power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease. Forget not that I am the one doing the work in you. You cannot command me to do anything. I do all things according to my own will. Allow my power to be a blessing in you, not a force that will cause you to betray me. Humble yourself continually under my mighty hand. Submit yourself unto me in everything, then will your eyes see, your ears hear, and your heart remain pliable in my hand. I must purify your heart by faith that is in me so that you may continue to behold me in this hour of great coldness and gross darkness. Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see me.

 

#430

Behold my power. I desire you to become more aware of the influence of my power in your life. I am the administrator of power. Yield yourself to me, and behold the working of my mighty power in your life. The activity of my power is awesome. If you could visualize the working of my power in your life, you would surely be confident of the greatness of it. However, you do not walk by sight, but you walk by faith. Only believe that I am greater than all other forces and powers. I am the power that moves all things. I am the power that sustains all things. I have all power. I have power to produce the changes that are needed in this life and in you. Behold my power. Have you ever observed the power of heat?

Have you ever observed the power of sound?

Behold the power of the wind as it propels a ship. Demons can get in the wind and cause the power of the wind to become destructive, yet I have power over demons and their activities. I am the head of all principality and power. Satan is the prince of the power of the air, yet I am his head; therefore, fear not the prince of the power of the air. At my name, his knee bows. His influence is limited although he has power to move the minds of the disobedient, for he works in the children of disobedience. He persuades them because he has the power to influence them. Walk in the spirit, and you will not be influenced by wickedness, neither by the wicked one.

If you abide in me and my words abide in you, you will ask what you will and it shall be done unto you. Submit yourself unto me, the sovereign God. I am the governor of an everlasting kingdom. My kingdom has no end, and all power is mine. I rule over everything. I have dominion over everything. Satan has been given power over darkness, yet I am his head. I have the key to darkness. Fear not the darkness, for it is under my feet. In the time of darkness, I will enlighten your darkness; therefore, do not be afraid for the terror by night or for the arrow that flieth by day or for the pestilence that walketh in darkness or for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. A thousand shall fall at your side and ten thousand at your right hand, but it shall not come nigh you. I am your refuge. Now make me your habitation, and no evil shall befall you, neither shall any plague come nigh your dwelling.

 

#431

Behold the many souls that dwell in darkness. I have sent my army with the word that will deliver them out of darkness and the shadow of death. I will break their bands in sunder. I will break their gates of brass and cut their bars of iron in sunder. Behold the many souls who sit at the gates of death. They are crying unto me. Come and follow me, for I will save them out of their distresses. I have sent my word to heal them and deliver them from their destructions. I am gracious. I am full of compassion. I am righteous, and I have given you righteousness. Because you are counted righteous, there is light for you in the darkness.

You have been given power. Now go forth, and preach my word unto those that the enemy has persecuted. He has smitten their lives down to the ground and made them to dwell in darkness. They are dead in trespasses and sins. Their spirits are overwhelmed within them, and their hearts are desolate. They are stretching forth their hands unto me, and their souls are thirsting after me. I will not hide my face from them any longer. Go and preach the gospel in the face of the prince of the power of darkness, for there are souls that I must deliver, whose spirits are about to fail. Go and preach my lovingkindness, and they shall come unto me. For my name's sake, I will quicken them and bring their souls out of trouble. Go and you shall behold my ability, my strength, and my grace perform the work in you. I have all power and all authority. I have given you a commission to go preach my word. I will supply the power. When I am the power behind my word, then shall people be astonished at the doctrine. Open your mouth wide, and I will fill it with a word in due season. I am the authority and the power behind all that you say. Open your mouth, and speak the word that I have placed in your tongue.

 

#432

I have given you victory over yourself. You entered into my gates with thanksgiving and came into my courts with praise. I have taken up residence in your praises. In your praises, I have enthroned myself. Now sit down and sup with me, and I will sup with you. Count yourself blessed to be able to sup with the all-sufficient God of heaven and of earth. I am the God of the whole earth. Jesus is my name. I am the everlasting God, the eternal Spirit. I live inside of you. I have given you power over all manner of sickness and disease. Go and do as I did when I walked the earth in the man Christ Jesus. He was your example. As I demonstrated my power in him, I desire to work in you also. Rebuke fevers, and lay hands on those with divers diseases when they are brought unto you. Preach the kingdom of God and my righteousness wherever I send you. You have power to tread on serpents, scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. The privileges that have come to you because of the authority I have given you are to be cherished. You have been given influence in the kingdom of God and the kingdom of the world. Go and exercise the freedom and the mastery that you have been given. You have a right to speak for me. The entire world has become your jurisdiction. You have been given liberty and power. Do not hide your strength, which is in me. You have power. The power that is in you is the power to work miracles. Do not doubt the ability that is in your gift. I gave this gift to you to use, not to bury and hide. The gift in you goes before you and makes room for you. It is a present that precedes you into the earth and grants you grace and mercy before men. Just as I gave myself for you, the present must be given before favor with men becomes yours. I say, "Arise and follow your gift into the world." It is a present that desires to give itself away. When the present is given, I, the Almighty God, will give you mercy before men. Your gift is a precious stone turning as it wills. Everywhere it turns, it prospers. Your gift is acting after its own nature. A gift is a contribution that will bring friends to your door, for every man is a friend to him that gives gifts.

 

#433

Worry not about the angry man or the wrathful man. Your gift will secretly pacify their anger and their wrath. Sow the seeds of the gospel everywhere the gift leads you. The signs that shall follow you shall be a testimony of the power of the gift leading you. Fear not, but rise up and follow your gift. I will be with you everywhere you go to work with you and to confirm the word with signs following. All of the authority and power of the government of God is on your side. The power with you is greater than that of an army, a navy, or any military force. You are invested with more than enough power. My church is a great representative with full power to command everything that I have said unto it. Do not negotiate from a foundation of compromise. There is no need for compromise, for you have all power. I am the power of your life. I am the wisdom of your life. I am the righteousness of your life. Power, wisdom, and righteousness are on display in you as you spread the news that souls have been ransomed from death. Satan had the power of death, but I took away his key. He introduced sin, which is the cause of death. I have the key of death. Go and free people from the torture of death and desolation. I have given you the key. You are now a power of attorney with authority given by me to act on my behalf. Doubt not the ability that is in you by the grace of God. I am in you doing the work. I am able to do exceeding, abundantly, above all that you ask or think, according to the power that works in you. Go and allow the gift to be presented to people. Your faith is growing exceedingly, and charity is abounding in you. Go.

December 14, 2003

I desire that your words be with power. The Holy Ghost has come upon you, and now you have received power. I have anointed you, and by the anointing, every yoke is broken. Be not shackled by unbelief. Open your mouth wide, and I will fill it with living words. By the living words that I shall author, abusive spirits shall flee. All devils are subject unto you through my name. You have been given power to tread on serpents, scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. Nothing by any means shall hurt you. Do not become self-righteous and begin rejoicing that the spirits are subject unto you, but rejoice because your name is written in heaven. The things that you are beholding have been hidden from the wise and prudent, but I have revealed them unto you and those who become as babes. My eternal power and Godhead is revealed unto you. Blessed are your eyes, for they see. Many prophets and kings have desired to see the things that I have shown you and to hear the things that you have heard. Prophets and kings have not seen, nor heard what you have heard. Continually humble yourself before me, and you will see and hear greater things. The evil spirits that left people yesterday in the services were acts that I wrought by the words that I gave you. The evil spirits could have leaped on you and overcame you, but they could not, for I ordained their departure so that the name of the Lord could be magnified. Many will begin to believe and confess their sins as they see the power of God manifested in the services. The word of God is growing in your midst. It will prevail.

 

#435

Continue to share the living words that I give to you with the people. These are my words. They go forth out of my mouth unto you. They shall not return unto me void. They shall accomplish that which I please and shall prosper in the thing wherever I send them. The miraculous things that I spoke to you about and showed unto you in dreams have begun. You shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace. No demon or principality or power shall get an advantage over you, for I have ordained your victory. Continue to walk with me, and allow me to do the work through you. I will replace the bad things in your midst with good things. Give yourself to prayer and the ministry of the word in a more fervent manner, and behold the difference in the outcome. You will begin to speak more by my Spirit, and your adversaries shall not be able to resist the wisdom and the spirit by which you speak. They have hindered you in times past, but now I have drawn a line between you and them by my blood. Give all glory unto me in this new move of God in your midst, and I will not allow the admittance of any evil spirits except for their own defeat. Remain focused on prayer and ministry of the word. Behold the word of God. It shall grow and multiply.

 

#436

Is there an alternative way into my kingdom?

I have not left any other options. I only gave one name as the saving name for all, neither is there salvation in any other, for there is none other name under heaven given among men whereby you must be saved. There is no other name that can be substituted for the highest name in heaven and in earth. My name is above all names. At my name, every knee shall bow. Turn from those who reject my name in baptism. Any other name fostered in baptism comes from the spirit of error. I will not deny my own name, for I have said that I will not share my glory with any other. All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. The word of the Lord has free course, and I am glorified when the name of Jesus is used in whatsoever you do.

I am faithful. I am the one who has established you and will keep you from all evil. I have directed your heart into the love of God. Be patient, and wait on me. The bread of life is being fed to you daily. This is the spiritual manna from heaven. I have blessed it aforetime and broken it for you to give to the people. Allow not this relationship to fill you with pride, but be humbled that you are called to partake of this communion and fellowship. You are accepted into this relationship because of the offering of the innocent blood of Jesus Christ. Do not sell out for a position among men and brethren. The value of this relationship cannot be calculated; therefore, accept not the offers made by men who are appointed by men to entice you to sell your birthright as an heir to hear the voice of the Most High God. This relationship is not purchased by political advantages, neither is it given because of spiritual appointments authored by men.

I am the rewarder of those who diligently seek me. What I have given you, cannot be taken away. It is a gift. I am the giver of the gift. Now be content to dwell where you are, and desire not the high places where men sit puffed up by pride and exaltation that have come by men. They shall be brought down in due time. Everything that exalteth itself or is promoted by man shall be brought low. Lift up your voice to proclaim my word, and worry not about these promotions given by men.

 

#437

Be not ambitious and seek to be promoted to the platforms of men. These are all worldly platforms that are built upon the foundation of pride. My throne is upheld by mercy, and the platforms that I have built have the love of God as a foundation. Seek love and not favor with men. They will deliver you to be killed, and your name shall become an abomination to them if you seek to be a man-pleaser. Seek to hear me say, "This is my beloved son in whom I am well pleased." Walk with me in the Spirit. Be content where you are. I will give you a testimony that you pleased me, and you will be taken when I come for my bride. No man has the power or the authority to transfer you into a relationship with me as a member of the bride of Christ. Many who think that they are in the bride of Christ shall find themselves as sons and daughters who come out of great tribulation. Seek to please me and not men. Follow peace with all men and holiness, and you will surely be caught away in the bride of Christ.

You have been delivered up for envy. Do not attempt to stand before envy, for no one can stand before it. Stand before my throne of grace where you have been drawn by my love. I have stretched forth my scepter of righteousness and counted you righteous. Pray effectual prayers, for they avail much. Shun every appearance of self-righteousness, and open your mouth wide to proclaim the grace of Christ. The judgment seat of man is not the final seat of judgment; therefore, do not worry about man's judgment of you. I am the supreme judge of the entire earth. I will place you where I have appointed you to dwell, so worry not, neither fear. I have begun a good work in you, and I will perform an excellent work in you unto the end. I did not cease to work a good work after beginning a good work. The detours planned by man cannot circumvent my plans for your life. You are yet on course, in spite of man's rejections of you. Thus saith the Lord of hosts.

 

#438

Behold the way of the world and note its devastation to come. All that is in the world is the lust of eyes, the lust of the flesh, and the pride of life. Man has gambled all that he has and thrust it into a ship of self-confidence that is propelled by his own lust and pride. His calamity looms on the horizon lurking in the cold dark waters of death. His own deceitful heart blinds him. The darkness of his own heart does not provide him with a vision of clarity; therefore, death remains hidden in the waters of his own sins. With full confidence in self and the achievements propelled by his pride of life, man journeys further into the waters of death without me.

Go and preach the gospel of Christ, for it is the only light that can enable man to see. Man is detached from me. He must be connected to me. Man must be reconciled unto me, the true light. I must reach them. I have chosen the gospel as the means by which they are reached. Only the light will enable them to see the icebergs of cold love in the waters of sin all about them. They are headed on a collision course with these icebergs. Remember the Titanic.

Time is short. The laborers are few. I am sending more laborers into the harvest to carry the light of the glorious gospel unto perishing souls. Arise and go preach. The hour is late and time is spent farther than you perceive. Arise and go preach the gospel everywhere to every creature. Do not allow the great falling away of brothers and sisters to affect you or your zeal to win the lost. Do not be distracted from my purpose, which is to seek and to save those who are lost. If you could have been on the Titanic and beheld the perishing souls who did not have lifeboats as a refuge then you would understand the urgency of the hour. Familiarize yourself with the history of the Titanic, and you will have a different view of your purpose. Come away with me in the spirit, and behold the people of that ship screaming as the terror of death grips them with its cold teeth of surety. Behold the fear on their faces. I have sent you with the lifeboat of the gospel. Will you carry it to them or will you stand detached from the purpose as they perish without a lifeboat?

Go and preach the gospel. Souls are perishing while you are waiting to make the decision to obey. You must redeem the time, for the hour is much later than you perceive.

 

#439

Be not corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ Jesus. A spirit is at war against you to entice you to complicate your faith. Do not complicate the faith of Jesus that is within you. I have given to every man the measure of faith. A very subtle and crafty spirit is attempting to beguile you as Eve was beguiled. This spirit has enticed many to preach another Jesus and another gospel. Be not beguiled by this spirit of error. You are of God, and you hear my words. Those who are not of God will hear the voice of this crafty spirit, for it is the voice of their father, the devil. Be not enticed by the voice of this murderer. He dwells not in the truth because there is no truth in him. He is a liar and the father of it. Continue in faith, charity, and holiness, and you will not be snared by his subtlety. He will deceive the whole world. He is the accuser of the brethren. He accuses them before me day and night. Rise up with a good confession of faith, and overcome him by the blood of Jesus and the word of your testimony. This spirit takes advantage of those who lose the focus of their faith. Do not lose the focus of faith. Who are you focusing on?

What are you focusing on?

You will be consumed by whatever you are focusing on. Allow me to be the zeal of your house and then will you be consumed by me. When you have allowed me to become the zeal of your house, you will know what manner of spirit you are of. I did not come to destroy men's lives but to save them. Do you desire the same things for those who disobey as I desire for them?

Turn your focus back to me. Many are focusing on themselves and their ministries; therefore, they are not seeing clearly. When people lose their focus, they begin to exalt themselves and lose their sense of justification. Return unto a childlike attitude of faith, for of such is the kingdom of God. Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, shall in no wise enter therein.

I am refocusing your faith. When your faith is refocused, you will begin to preach Jesus again. Unless I am preached, the generation of men is declared instead of my generation. Go and declare my generation and not your own. I am in you to declare it. My zeal will perform it. Rise up, and go forth in the power of the spirit. I have clad you with zeal as a cloak. Now go forth, and preach Jesus. I came and dyed my garments in my own blood. I traveled in the greatness of strength speaking in righteousness and mighty to save. Preach how my garments became red as I trod the winepress alone. There was none with me when I tread them in mine anger and trampled them in my fury. Their blood sprinkled upon my garments and stained my raiment. Preach how my own arm brought salvation unto me, and the blood of my arm saved them. The church must become focused again on me. When they are refocused on me again then will they see what I have done for them, and experience a revival of justification by faith. Behold a revival of justification by faith.

 

#440

Be not deceived by the exploits done in my name, for many of them are lying signs and lying wonders. Do not follow signs. A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign. The sign to heed is the sign of the prophet Jonah. As Jonah was in the belly of the whale three days and three nights, so was the son of man in the heart of the earth three days and three nights. Behold that sign, and seek to see that sign fulfilled in your life and in the lives of others. No other sign will be given unto this wicked and adulterous generation; therefore, seek to see the gospel obeyed. Many have gone astray because the enemy has seduced them and lured them away from the love of the truth. I have sent them a strong delusion that they should believe a lie, that they all might be damned who believed not the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

Take heed unto yourself and the doctrine. Continue in them, for in doing this, you shall save yourself and them that hear you. If you refuse to do this, you shall be distracted as Samson was distracted and become sport for his enemies. The enemy has planned a performance for his entertainment and recreation with my people as the object of their amusement. Refuse to become amusement for your enemy. The act before your face is a diversion. It is a departure from the purpose; therefore, beware of all deviations from seeking to save those who are lost. Sound doctrine is a necessity to remain on course and to not depart from the faith. Seducing spirits are using powerful temptations to lure you from the truth. Do not depart from the truth for another gospel or another doctrine. You are in the truth, and there is no other truth concerning me. Do not seek to please men, for if you please men, you cannot be my servant. If you seek to please men, you will preach a gospel after men.

 

#441

You are preaching the gospel that was received by Paul. He neither received it of men, neither was he taught it but by the revelation of Jesus Christ. Follow in his steps and then will you follow my steps. Many have been removed from me. I called you into the grace of Christ and not unto another gospel, which is not another. Be not troubled by those who are perverting the gospel of Christ. Their deviation from the truth has become a performance in the dark, and now they have become sport for their enemies. Unless they return unto the truth, they shall be accursed. Though any man or an angel from heaven preach any other gospel unto you than that which the apostles preached, let him be accursed. It has been said before, so say I now unto you, "If any man preaches any other gospel unto you than that you have received, let him be accursed."

Many have been smitten with blindness because they went into the pathway of distraction's plan. They became absorbed by the heat of the devil's recreation, and turned their attention unto another spirit and another purpose. Beware of this spirit. It uses spiritual sensation and spiritual performances to lure you upon the lap of the false church. When the enemy has beguiled people, they are made to drink the wine of the whore's fornication. Why would anyone in their right mind want to be a part of the woman drunken with the blood of the saints and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus?

They are intoxicated on the wine of spiritual fornication. Great tribulation is reserved for them. They have been shown abundance of grace as I have given them space to repent of their fornication. I have cast this whore into a bed and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation except they repent of their deeds. Be not an instrument of the enemy's sport in these last days. Be not a Samson, for if you make his mistake, you will lose your relationship with me, your strength, your liberty in Christ, your spiritual eyesight, and you will grind the corn of your enemy and feed the children of the harlot. Those who do not repent shall lose their lives. They shall die in the house of their enemies. Go and say, "Repent of your flirtations with the whore." Go and say, "Repent of spiritual fornication and spiritual adultery." Those who do not repent of their evil deeds shall become sport and a laughing stock in the house of the enemy. They shall become the song and the byword of their enemies.

 

#442

The voice of confidence and power speaks unto you today. I am the voice of the Lord. In the beginning, was the Word, and the Word was God. I am the same yesterday, today, and forever. I am the Lord, and I do not change. I am the miracle worker for the children of Israel. I have not changed. I am preparing tables in the wilderness of the last days. I am supplying water out of rocks. I AM THAT I AM. I am your confidence. Rely on me and not on what you think about me. You do not know me well enough to base your faith in your knowledge of me. Cast your confidence totally on me. He who comes to me must first believe that I am and that I am the rewarder of those who diligently seek me. I have said, "I will withhold no good thing from those who walk uprightly." Walk in the righteousness of faith and not in the unrighteousness of faith in your own faith. Behold the uprightness of the walk of the Lamb of God. Behold his completed work as the sacrificial lamb. Did he complete his work in the earth?

Then struggle no longer with your emotions that run to and fro before my throne in an attempt to impress me. I am not impressed by anything that you do except to believe. Have faith in me. You have asked for a miracle. Now do you trust me to give you a miracle?

You have searched your life for qualifications. You have searched for reasons to be blessed in such a magnitude. Ten dollars and ten million dollars are the same to me. I have come looking for faith in you. I gave you the measure of faith. Now where is it?

 

#443

Be not intimidated by the size of the miracle that you need. You are using comparative reasoning to determine if I will perform the miracle for you. Use not this erroneous concept of faith in my presence, for I am not a respecter of persons, neither am I a liar. You are a liar, but I am true. Do not allow the size of your need to reduce you to a beggar before my throne, but rise up in the stature of faith, and express your need as a son who has been made a joint heir to all that I have. I own everything. I am the head of all principality and power. Now speak my name while you humble yourself unto the authority of my word and my promises. I am true. Ask and you shall receive. You have never seen the righteous forsaken or his seed begging bread or money. I have invited you to come boldly unto my throne of grace that you may obtain mercy and find grace to help you in the time of need. I desire to give you the miracle more than you desire it. I foreknew you, called you, and justified you. If I am for you, then who can be against you?

I did not spare my own Son. I delivered him up for all of you. Who will persuade me to not give you all things with the Son that I offered?

An enemy has accused you. You are among the elect of God. Who shall lay anything to your charge?

I am the one who justifies. Who is he that will condemn you?

Look to the one who is making intercession for you. He died for you and is raised again. Now only believe that love is on your side and that nothing can separate you from the love of Christ. The Holy Ghost that is freely given to you sheds it abroad in your heart. What value do you place on the Holy Ghost that resides in your body?

Then is there anything that I will not give unto you?

Only believe.

 

#444

Do not allow the enemy of your soul to turn you from faith in me. Be not cast down in your soul because of the delay you have received. I am on time with my answers. Continue to serve me with joyfulness and gladness of heart for the abundance of all things. You have prayed unto me. Do not stop here to serve the god of doubt. Doubt has approached you. It has drawn near your bosom and offered you a pillow to fill with tears. Do not stagger at my promises through doubt and unbelief, but be strong in faith while you give glory unto me. The things that you are feeling and experiencing are a natural byproduct of the war for the new territory that I am giving you. You have not fallen, neither have my promises fallen to the ground unfulfilled because of delay. The delay is only a pause for you to rest in me, for the steps of a good man are ordered by your Lord. I delight in your way. Though you fall, you shall not be cast down. I am upholding you with my right hand. I am merciful and gracious. I am slow to anger and plenteous in mercy and truth. During this pause or delay, allow your soul to pant after me. As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so allow your soul to pant after me. Continue to thirst for me.

Pour out your soul unto me with the voice of joy and the voice of praise. Allow the voice of praise to ascend unto me. Send your praises high above the temptation to allow your soul to be cast down. Keep your hope in me, and your soul will not be disquieted, for I shall command my lovingkindness in the daytime. In the night, my songs shall be with you. When you pray unto me, I will answer, for I am the God of your life. I have not forgotten you; therefore, do not be turned unto mourning because of the oppression of doubt and unbelief.

These are real spirits. They are warriors in high places. They have been sent to distract you from my promises. I have not opened my mouth and lied unto you. I cannot lie. Let every man be a liar, but I am true. I am true unto you and my word. Be not distracted from the fruit of my promises. The noises of the things that come from the deep are attempting to affect the health of your countenance. Offer praise and thanksgiving in the face of this noise from the mouth of doubt. Continue to hope in God, the health of your countenance. I am the strength of your life, and I have sent forth the light and the truth. I will lift you when you are tempted to mourn. I will bring you unto my holy hill and to the tabernacles of praise. Here in the tabernacles of praise, you will find the altar of God and exceeding, great joy. You cannot fly away on the wings of mourning. Mourning will carry you to the deep pits of this life. Ascend up to my holy hill on the wings of praise and thanksgiving, and there will you find rest.

 

#445

I have not hid myself from your supplication. I have been attentive to your voice; therefore, be not pained within yourself. The enemy is at war against you. If you open yourself up to these assumptions that I am not listening to you, then he will bring the terrors of death upon you. I have come to dispel this notion quickly. Many become overwhelmed by the storms and tempest in their lives because of this kind of thinking. Remember, the weapons of your warfare are not carnal. They are mighty through me to the pulling down of strongholds, casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God and bringing into captivity every thought to my obedience. Instead of being ready to believe the lies of the devil spoken in your ears, have in a readiness to revenge all disobedience when your obedience is fulfilled. You are allowing the words that have been given to you to slip from your heart. You have received an abundance of prophecies. Do not allow these things that you have heard to slip. Give a more earnest heed to all these things that are spoken in your ears, for this is the Rhema of God. How are you going to escape if you are neglecting these things?

Man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceeds out of my mouth. These things come by the same gift that the logos of God came by. I have confirmed the Rhema of God to you with signs, wonders, divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost according to my own will. Look and behold Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honor, that he by the grace of God, should taste death for everyone of you. Do not take your eyes off what he has accomplished for you, for it is by him that you and many sons are brought unto glory. You are one with him. He is your head, and you are a part of his body. He is not ashamed to call you brother. He destroyed the one that had the power of death, that is, the devil. He delivered all who, through the fear of death, were all their lifetime subject to bondage. He was made like unto you that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things that pertain unto the Spirit, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people. He is able to succor you during this time of temptation to doubt and to fear. Behold Jesus, the author and the finisher of your faith today, yesterday, and forever.

An abundance of prophecies have been delivered into your hands. Do not simply allow them to dwell in your hands, but hide them in your heart. They have gone before you. Now take them, and by them, war a good warfare while you are holding faith and a good conscience. Many are shipwrecked today because they have despised prophesying. To speak against true prophecy, is to speak against my word and me, for I have said, "Despise not prophesying." You are not forsaking the Bible by believing in the Rhema word of God, for you know that the Rhema of God proceeds from that which is forever settled in heaven. Men may tamper with Bibles, but it is impossible to tamper with the word that is forever settled in heaven. I have spoken these words in your ears. Now take them, the sword of the Spirit, and swing it with the lips of grace and a heart filled with love. Do not falter in the presence of these voices speaking in your presence, but take unto yourself the Rhema word of God. Submit yourself totally unto me and swing it with the might of the Spirit then the devil shall flee from you.

This is the day that I have made. Rejoice and be glad in it. Rejoice before the tempter tempts you. Be glad before the tempter tempts you. From a thankful heart, express the fruit of joy and gladness, and you will see the difference in the outcome of your day that I made for you. Many will spend their day warring with adversaries that they did not have to war against because they went down paths of lamenting. Greet me not with tears of complaints, but greet me with gladness. I have said, "Serve me with gladness, and come before my presence with singing." First, present me with a bouquet of praises instead of a flood of tears that water the thorns that have created the pains in your life. Replace the weeping willows of the mourner with a high new song of life and victorious expectation. Resist the temptation to bring to me a deep death song of the blues and of mourning. Many are controlled by grief, sorrow, and regret; therefore, they come to me as weak lamenting worshippers of their problems and their emotions. Wear not the willows given you by unbelief, but rather adorn yourself with the garment of praise. Wear not sackcloth and ashes, but wear the breastplate of faith and love. Where is your helmet?

Your helmet is the hope of salvation. Did you come to my throne with the hope of salvation or with your head bowed to your troubles?

I have not appointed you unto wrath but to obtain salvation by Jesus Christ. Who can you comfort and edify while you are in deep mourning?

I have given you righteousness as a breastplate and a helmet of salvation upon your head. I have already worn the garments of vengeance for you; therefore, cast off the willows you adorned yourself with, and put on the armor of light that shines through praise. Remain dressed in the armor of righteousness that I have placed on the right hand and on the left. Remain dressed in the whole armor of God then will you be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. Do not remove your helmet of salvation. Many remove their helmet of salvation in the morning and adorn themselves with crowns of lamenting expressions. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, and come forth with great rejoicing in the Lord.

Let your soul be joyful in me, for I have clothed you with the garments of salvation. I have covered you with the robe of righteousness. I am causing righteousness and praise to spring forth before all nations; therefore, arise and take hold of my strength, and rejoice in the goodness of your God. Remember the mercies of David. I will not turn away your face from me, for you are anointed. Remember, you are clothed with salvation, so shout aloud for joy. You are budding like the horn of David, and a lamp for your feet is given for your path. Arise up, and cast off the willows for a garment. Be adorned with the garment of praise. You are accepted in the beloved, and all your problems are already worked out in my victory. I have clothed your enemies with shame and placed a crown of praise upon your head.

I have awakened you another day. Now put on your strength. Put on your beautiful garments of praise. Do not sell yourself for naught, for you are redeemed without money. There is no dust on you. There are no bands on your neck. You are not in bondage. Though many are taken into captivity in this hour, you dwell in liberty. I have sent revival into your midst. The people are loosed, and joy is in their expressions unto me. Continue to carry them good tidings and publish peace. I have declared your feet beautiful upon the mountains of the last days. Go and speak good tidings of good. Go and publish salvation among my people. Go and say, "Your God reigneth!" Go and remove lamenting and mourning from the midst of the people with the washing of water by the living word. Many are expressing themselves with tearful faces, and the voice of the plaintful souls contend for positions in the congregations. They seek to drain the true children of their joy and persuade them to follow their paths of moody worship. Go and lift up your voice as a watchmen, and tell them to break forth into joy and sing the new songs of the Spirit, which are given freely to those who are yielded unto the abundance of grace. Rejoice. Rejoice. Rejoice. My holy arm shall be seen by all nations and the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of the true God.

There is a time to weep and a time to laugh. There is a time to mourn and a time to dance. This is not the time for weeping and mourning. I have brought you into the good land of plenty. I have not left you in a spiritual Babylon where people sit down and weep at the remembrance of the house of God and the good land of liberty. There is a spirit warring against my people that tempts them to hang their harps of praise upon the weeping willows planted in their midst. It is a spirit of bondage that has seduced many and brought them into captivity. This spirit will require of them the songs from the house of God that they may mock their relationship with their God. This spirit will carry away my people into a strange land of false joy and spiritual pretense. How will they sing the Lord's songs in a land of bondage where there is no real joy and the abundance of hypocrisy?

I desire to deliver the people out of the hand of this enemy. My anger is turned away, and now I am comforting the people of my body. I am their salvation. Tell them to trust and not be afraid, for I am their strength and their song. Show them the bucket to use to draw waters out of the wells of salvation, for many are attempting to draw living waters without the buckets of joy. I have said, "With joy, shall they draw water out of the wells of salvation." Without the bucket of joy, there is no means to draw out of these living waters. Go and preach that I have given them buckets without holes freely that they may be washed and refreshed from the deep fountains of living water.

The sinners shall come with eyes bathed in tears. Their eyes shall swim in their tears. I shall use their godly sorrow to turn them unto repentance. They shall come unto me with weeping. With supplications, will I lead them. I will free them from the spirits that are much stronger than they. I will show forth the power of redemption and lead them in a straight path and then I will water their souls as a garden is watered. It is my desire afterwards that they sorrow no more. Afterwards, I will cause them to rejoice in the dance, for I will turn their mourning into joy. I will comfort them and make them rejoice from their sorrow.

The ministers of the Lord will have their souls satiated with fatness, and my people shall be satisfied with goodness. Refrain the voice of weeping and your eyes from tears, for your work shall be rewarded. There is no need for sorrow, for there is hope in your end. My people have looked at their present circumstances and beheld the sorrow and the grief that wrapped them up. Direct them to look to the end of all these things, and behold the beauty of what I am doing. Though I have chastised them, I will turn and have mercy upon them. The way of a transgressor is hard, but the yoke of the Lord is easy. Many are sorrowful because they have transgressed my commandments. Their hour has come to be delivered, and now shall their sorrow be turned unto joy. A woman when she is in travail has sorrow because her hour is come, but as soon as she is delivered of the child, she does not remember the anguish anymore, for joy that a child is born into the world. If the children of God are delivered, then why are so many anguishing?

I say, "They have given their joy away, for they have laid their heads on the bosom of other loves, and the enemy has cut off their joy." I have said, "Their hearts shall rejoice, and their joy will no man take from them." Tell them to repent of loving others and other things more than me. Ask for deliverance in my name, and they shall receive it that their joy may be full. Tell them to be of a glad heart. I have overcome the world, the flesh, and the devil. Go and turn the people's heart toward rejoicing in all of their tribulation. Remind them that I am there to comfort them. I will give them beauty for their ashes, the oil of joy for their mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord. I will be glorified in them; therefore, make a joyful path for my glory.

I have not forgotten my promises unto you. I am God, and I cannot lie. It is impossible for me to lie. I have not held back my promises, but a spirit has influenced you to doubt. Refuse the inspiration of doubt, and allow the faith that I have given to express itself. Faith is willing to express its ability and confidence. Faith is speaking, but you will not allow it to speak continually. You have expressed a double-mind's view of things and have not received that which you could have. Today is the day of victory. Now go, and express the faith of Christ and not the doubts of your mind. All things are possible if you believe. Lift up your voice in the sanctuary, and declare the hope of the cross. I have made a bridge and placed it under your feet. The cross is a bridge across all troubled waters and through every scorching fire. It is time for "hard-headed" faith and not the time for doubt and unbelief. The enemy has counted on your double-mindedness, but I know that you will abound with thanksgiving because of faith. Go and proclaim the victory that is already won by the cross. Go and proclaim my faithfulness to Israel and the faithfulness to you and the church. I cannot fail. There is no failure in me. There is no darkness in me, neither is there a shadow of turning in me. In me, there is liberty and power. You are not bound. You are free. Now rise up, and proclaim what you know by the Living Word that is in you. I am Jesus, the Lord of lords and the King of kings. Believe on me as the scriptures have declared of me, and the rivers within you shall flow against the fires of discouragement and defeat.

 

 

 

1 Timothy 4:14

Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery.
