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.

The Relationship of Faith and Love In the Secret Chambers of Fear’s Castle
(Part 1)
February
9, 2006
Sound the alarm. Night is coming and now working must cease. The strength that you would have obtained if you had worked in the day is now unrecoverable. Your only strength is of me, the only Lord God. The fires of the hour shall be too hot for those who do not know the strength of the Lord God. Many shall live in fear during the fiery trials of this very hour. Their hearts shall faint because of fear of dreadful things coming upon the earth. Strengthen yourselves in the Holy Ghost, for in the day of terror you will faint if you are not rooted in my strength.
Love must marry faith if there is to be victory in these last days. Faith works only by love. Faith without love shall not stand, neither shall it prevail against fear. Fear will come for its claim of victory, unless love cast out this terror of the night. Fear is a monster. Will you contend with it with only faith as your weapon?
Will you hide from searching eyes of fear in the day time?
How will you escape without the weapons of love to fight for you?
The weapons of love cannot be matched; therefore, mount your faith with this warrior of love, and then will you know the relationship of strength that will not fail. Allow the relationship of strength to continue. The expectations of faith cannot be reached without this relationship. Do not think that you will overcome the world without love. Run after love so that you are not found trying to overcome with faith alone.
You will seek only power and reputation if you forsake love on the eve of victory. Hear me and know that it is a trick of the enemy to persuade you to attempt the task of overcoming without love. The beauty of reputation cannot compare to the unveiled beauty beyond the surface of love. Love often comes with no flare of reputation, yet reputation keeps a constant flare of self-glory radiating for all to see. Refuse the flare of reputation and you will find the beauty of love when it is unveiled. The courage of love cannot be compared to the courage of reputation, for there is no comparison. Love is wisdom; therefore, it does not make the errors that are so common to faith and reputation. Behold the strategies of fear. They are beyond the reach of faith only. Love must accompany faith, or fear’s castle is out of reach. The journey to the stronghold of fear is far. Faith can only reach it by way of the bridge of love. Only love can venture to the heart of fear and cast it out. Listen to the voices of fear for a moment and you will learn that only love can bear to hear its terror without compromise. Who will dare venture to the pits of fear, but love?
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?
SCRIPTURAL
VERIFICATION
The
word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is,
the word of faith, which we preach; That if thou shalt confess
with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart
that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For
with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the
mouth confession is made unto salvation.
(Romans
10:8-10)

I will sound the alarm. Night is coming and now working must cease. The strength that I would have obtained if I would have worked in the day is now unrecoverable. My only strength is of Jesus, the only Lord God. The fires of the hour shall be too hot for those who do not know the strength of Jesus. Many shall live in fear during the fiery trials of this very hour. Their hearts shall faint because of fear of dreadful things coming upon the earth. I will strengthen myself in the Holy Ghost, for in the day of terror I will faint if I am not rooted in God’s strength. Love must marry faith if there is to be victory in these last days. Faith works only by love. Faith without love shall not stand, neither shall it prevail against fear. Fear will come for its claim of victory unless love cast out this terror of the night. Fear is a monster. I will not contend with fear with only faith as my weapon, but I will allow love and faith to be my weapons. I will not hide from the searching eyes of fear in the day time. I will let love be the weapon that I fight with. The weapons of love cannot be matched; therefore, I will mount my faith with this warrior of love. Now will I know the relationship of strength that will not fail. I will allow the relationship of strength to continue. The expectations of faith cannot be reached without this relationship. I will not think that I will overcome the world without love. I will run after love so that I am not found trying to overcome with faith alone. I will seek only power and reputation if I forsake love on the eve of victory. I will hear Jesus and know that it is the trick of the enemy to persuade me to attempt the task of overcoming without love. The beauty of reputation cannot compare to the unveiled beauty beyond the surface of love. Love often comes with no flare of reputation, yet reputation keeps a constant flare of self–glory radiating for all to see. I will refuse the flare of reputation and I will find the beauty of love when it is unveiled. The courage of love cannot be compared to the courage of reputation, for there is no comparison. Love is wisdom; therefore, it does not make the errors that are so common to faith and reputation. I will behold the strategies of fear. They are beyond the reach of faith only. Love must accompany faith, or fear’s castle is out of reach. The journey to the stronghold of fear is far. Faith can only reach it by way of the bridge of love.

Only love will venture to the pits fear.
Hebrews
10:22 - 23
Let
us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having
our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed
with pure water. Let
us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering;
(for he is faithful that promised;)
Ephesians
2:8-9
For
by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves:
it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.
