Daily Bread - June 10, 2004

But Jesus said unto her, Let the children first be filled: for it is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it unto the dogs. And she answered and said unto him, Yes, Lord: yet the dogs under the table eat of the children's crumbs.

I have seen all the things that have transpired, and I know of your disappointments. I will not allow the things that are working together to end in a bad way. All the things that have happened to you will end in a good way and in good results. Rejoice in all your pains and disappointments. All the things that appear to be bad for you may give the appearance of a ghetto and a run down community, but remember, I am the restorer. I will take these bad things and restore to you the good things of the spirit. To the eyes of humanity, you may perceive impossibility, but by the eyes of the Spirit, you will behold possibility and miracles. I will take this run down situation and glorify my name and my cross. Your labor for my name has not been in vain. Your labor of love for my name is not forgotten. Now will I show you of the faithfulness of my Spirit on behalf of the labor of love and confidence in my word. I will take every failure and create a valuable learning experience unto a profitable end. That which seemed to be a ghetto of lost purpose shall become a mansion of renewed purpose and fulfillment. The designs that were trashed by the unlearned and the uncaring shall be restored and instituted with a successful effort. Failure shall not surround your mind and prevent success from covering the area that I send you into. This is not an effort by you as an individual, but I send you to join a team of believers who have labored long and hard in this territory.

Look to me, the only Lord God, and I will show you of my divine way. You have encouragement for them, and they have encouragement and wisdom for you. Be not high-minded but rather be humbled that I have chosen you to join in the harvest for souls. My love is upon you and in you. I am no respecter of persons. I have made no difference between the Jew and the Greek, but I have filled both with the Spirit. I will show you the way to have revival in this area. Come and follow me. I am the one that makes you fishers of men, not yourself. You do not make yourself a fisher of men.

I am your maker. Now rest in the security of my promises. You have sat at the feet of learned men. Now sit at my feet, and be made a fisher of men. I am breathing the breath of enthusiasm in you. There is creativity in you that will bring you to a spiritual innovation of fishing effectively. I have created you in righteousness and true holiness. My ways are higher than your ways; therefore, yield to the higher ways of my Spirit. To you, this is a difficult operation, but remember, I have already accomplished the task before you arrived. I am already in the future with you. I am already in eternity to come with you. I am already in heaven with you right now. Allow the principles of my omnipresence and omniscience to work in you then will true faith spring up and speak through you. The task before you is already finished. Now go forth with this as a foundation for your feet. Though defeat knocks you down, know of a truth, that you will rise and overcome. Though death brings you to the grave, know of a truth, that you will sit down in the kingdom of God with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. You will survive this operation of faith. You will not die in your efforts to succeed, but I will use the actions demonstrated to encourage others and bring a more complete knowledge of me to many. I cannot fail; therefore, rejoice in my success through you which is already accomplished in the fourth dimension.

Come from your smallness of human mentality, and live in the greatness of the mind of Christ. You have the mind of Christ. Now live after the inspiration of this divine mind. View success according to the mind of Christ and not according to your human mind. Make full use of your talents. They shall help you overcome. Do not rely on the flesh, but rely on me. You can do nothing of yourself, but through me, you can do all things. Have no confidence in the flesh. If you place your confidence in the flesh, you will damage the lives of those that I have sent you to win. All that I have planned for you is coming together now. Submit to humility and then will grace work for you unto success in all things.

Amos 3: 7 - 8

Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets. The lion hath roared, who will not fear? The Lord GOD hath spoken, who can but prophesy?
