By the blood of the covenant, you have access to the throne of grace. Do not overlook the grace and mercy here at the throne. You have grace and mercy working on your behalf. Offer yourself as an instrument for them. Grace has come to you. Now give grace to others. Mercy has come to you. Now be merciful to others. Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy. Freely you have received grace, now freely give it. You have found grace in my sight. Now do not lose it, neither frustrate it. Grace has brought you salvation and lifted you out of the horrible pit of sin. There are other things that accompany salvation. Now allow grace to teach you. Some turn the grace of God unto lasciviousness and deny me. My grace brought you salvation and has appeared to all men.

Beware of false grace. There is another Jesus that teaches another grace. My grace teaches you to deny ungodliness and worldly lusts. My grace teaches that you should live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present world. My grace teaches to look for me, your blessed hope. My grace teaches to look for the glorious appearing of your great God. I gave myself for you. I redeemed you from all iniquity. I purified you unto myself and made you a peculiar people that are zealous of good works. Though you have zealousness, you must balance your zeal of God according to knowledge. If you do not balance the two, you will go about to establish your own righteousness. You must be continually submitted to my righteousness.

I will beware of false grace. There is another Jesus that teaches another grace. God's grace teaches me to deny ungodliness and worldly lusts. His grace teaches me that I should live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present world. It teaches to look for Jesus, our blessed hope. The Lord's grace teaches to look for the glorious appearing of our great God. He gave himself for us. He redeemed us from all iniquity and purified us unto himself and made us a peculiar people that are zealous of good works. Though I have zealousness, I must balance my zeal of God according to knowledge. If I do not balance the two, I will go about to establish my own righteousness.

Faith without works is dead. However, you can be contaminated with dead works and frustrate the works of grace. By the blood of Christ, purge your conscience from dead works, and serve me, the Living God, according to knowledge. My kindness and love toward you appeared not by works of righteousness, which you have done, but according to my mercy, I saved you by the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Ghost. It has been shed on you abundantly. You are justified by grace, and now you are an heir according to the glorious hope of eternal life. Rise up with great joy, and cease frustrating my grace.

Grace is doing an awesome thing in your life as the master teacher. Do not hinder it. It will achieve things in your life that cannot be obtained another way. Many have nullified the achievements of grace and have been retained in the valley of defeat. Do not be retained in this valley that you are passing through. Frustration has come to short-circuit the flow of the answers of grace. Allow me to override this short-circuit by the increase of faith. Faith shall confound frustration. Faith shall not fail. Cease looking at the possibility of failure. Failure is only possible through your own efforts. It is the failure of your own efforts that has left you frustrated in the past; therefore, look to the directions of grace that have sent faith through a bypass of frustration's short-circuit.

The flow of grace travels through faith. Frustration inserted a disruption and offered you unbelief as a low resistance, alternate path for the current of grace. I have made unbelief ineffective and superimposed the might of faith for the flow of the abundance of grace. By grace, through faith, you are saved. This disruption has not short-circuited the moving plans of grace. I have detained frustration. Now go on with your plans to serve me, the Living God.

I have magnified my grace and shown everlasting kindness to my people. I am honorable and faithful. My word is forever settled in heaven. It will not pass away. Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my word will remain. Lay hold on the word of life, and be confident in its value. The value of my word never changes. Let the word dwell richly in you, and you will have the unfailing currency that is unshakeable. Open your mouth, and speak of my power. Open your mouth, and talk of my glory. Open your mouth, and give thanks for the goodness of God in your life. I have drawn you before my presence and greeted you with grace. My scepter of righteousness was stretched unto you as you walked unto the throne of grace and acceptance.

The voice of redemption has spoken peace in your ears. The voice of redemption has assured you of light in this evening time. Rejoice in the presence of redemption's voice in your ears. Testify of the favor that you have found in the times of weakness and total helplessness. Redemption did not leave you to be devoured by the hungry mouth of sickness and disease. Redemption did not abandon you in the chambers of unconcern. Redemption's plan has been carefully laid out for your total victory and peace. In the time of all trouble, be assured that there is no strategy of the enemy that will prevail. I have designed a perfect salvation and provided, in advance, for all of your needs.

You are hidden in a secret place. In the secret of my pavilion, you are hidden. You are in my body, the body of Christ. I have built it upon the rock of revelation. Hide yourself in the rock of revelation, and do not come out of this truth. Principalities and powers of the air cannot retract the freedom that is in the truth. Your freedom is not measured by outside forces, neither is it negotiated by governors and rulers of the kingdom of darkness. I am the Lord, and I rule over all. You are bought with a price, the precious blood of Christ. Now worship in the sanctuary of the truth.

Mercy has made its statement this week. Its voice and actions have declared the worthlessness of dead works. What good work will you point to as a reason for deliverance from the cold hands of death's grip? Your body turned cold as ice. Poison flowed through you and painted its graffiti along your system's walls. Strength departed from you, and weakness magnified its bed. Unbelief sent you its invitations from other saviors. Your mind drifted on courses from earth to heaven. Thoughts of perishing leaked through your ceiling of dead works, but my word covered you with a giant umbrella of love and shut up the storm of sickness. I silenced the voices of distraction and diversion. All these things have been bound. They have been sent back to their pits with their bellies hungry for your life.

Another testimony has been written in an earthen vessel. Helpless dust arises to praise and magnify my mercy again. The threat of the enemy has been foiled again. Self-righteousness and dead works have been laid to rest in their grave of lust and pride. Do not resurrect these things again. They have no power to deliver you from anything. Awaken unto the power of faith in my faithfulness and the completed work of the cross, which is the hub of all things.

The cross, the cross, the cross; Take up the true cross. Is your cross the true cross that I desire you to take up?

Take up the true cross, and prepare to lose your life for my sake then will you find true life. You have followed from afar while being drawn nigh by precious blood. I came in a human body and was accursed for you. In the flesh, I was made a curse for you so that the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ. You have received the promise of the Spirit through faith. Now through faith, take up the true cross of a redeemed disciple zealous of good works. The joy of the Lord must be set before you. It must be greater in your life than the shame of your cross that you despise. You say that you do not despise your cross. Why are you weary?

Why are you nearly fainting in your mind?

You are called unto sufferings. Everyone that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecutions. I have committed the word of reconciliation unto you. You will not minister the gospel of reconciliation without the true cross. Disciples bearing the cross of men have approached many people in the world. Their crosses are instruments to conceal their true intents. The cross of redemption shall not be their hiding post. They shall be exposed as enemies of the cross of Christ. I came and suffered in the flesh to make peace through the blood of my cross and to reconcile all things unto myself. I came to present you holy, unblameable, and unreproveable in my sight. Take up your cross, and follow me. Continue in the true faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel.

By my cross, I have abolished in my flesh the enmity and made in myself of twain one new man and made peace. I have created one body by the cross as the enmity was slain. Men have come with their false cross and fashioned many bodies to distract from the true body. Take up the true cross and the true gospel. Go and preach the offensive power of my death. I am in you to preach the gospel by the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven. Unless you preach by the Holy Ghost, you will make the cross of Christ of none effect. If you preach with the wisdom of words, a false Christ will be the result of your ministry. You must preach Christ crucified. You must preach Christ, the power and the wisdom of God.

The cross, the cross, the cross; I take up the true cross. My cross is not the true cross that God desires me to take up.

Enticing spirits roam the earth inspiring people to preach another Jesus. Submit yourself unto me, deny yourself, pick up your cross, and follow me daily then shall the offense of the cross escalate in your life. Reckon yourself crucified with Christ, yet living because Christ lives in you. Reckon yourself crucified with Christ, yet living in the flesh by the faith of the Christ who loved you and gave himself for you. How will you decrease if you live by human faith and not the faith of the Son of God?

I say, "Many have increased instead of decreasing." Decrease so that I might increase in your life. Count all things loss for the excellency of the knowledge of the Lord. Count all things dung and you will win Christ. Many have won the praises of men instead of me. Cease counting the praises of men, and count all things dung, then will you stand before me clothed in the righteousness of God instead of your own righteousness. I have invited you to receive a renewed knowledge of me. Come and know me again in the power of my cross and the power of my resurrection. Come.

You are baptized into Jesus Christ; therefore, you are baptized into his death. You are buried with Christ by baptism into death. You have been planted together in the likeness of his death so that you may live in the likeness of his resurrection. Your old man is crucified with Christ, and the body of sin is destroyed. By the power of this great gospel, you are dead with Christ and freed from sin. Now cease serving the sin of self-righteousness so that you might preach the effectual gospel of my kingdom with the unlimited power of the resurrected Christ in you. Go preach in the newness of the Spirit and not in the oldness of the letter. You are dead unto sin but alive unto me through Jesus Christ, the Lord. Go and yield unto the flow of a renewed ministry within you.

I am the Light of the world. I have made my people the light of this world. Be not hidden any longer, for the world must know of the saving grace of the Lord. Rise up, and proclaim the freedom of the redeemed. You are not subjected to the bondage of the frustrating things of the hour. I have lifted you up into heavenly places in Christ Jesus. As Christ has been set far above all things, all principalities, all powers, and every name that is named, so have I lifted you above these frustrating things. They have no power over you; therefore, do not give them a place in your presence. Cease responding to their voices and their presence. They are under your feet and subjected to you.

Lift up the feet of praise, and rejoice in the victory of the cross. Sound the might of praise in my presence, and behold the weapons of your warfare released to fight for you. Show forth the fruit of what hearing has brought you. Faith has come by hearing and hearing by the word of God. The word of the Lord has thundered in your presence and struck a destroying blow to the head of frustration. Behold the casting down of the imaginations that have temporarily reigned as significant images and voices of hindrance. The right hand of the Lord has cast these things out of your sight. Now lift up your eyes unto the brightness of my glory and pulling down of these strongholds.

Behold the falling of rulers whose kingdoms attempted to plant soldiers of unbelief in your presence. Your mind has been targeted as a battlefield. Return to an armed mind of love and obedience and then will your thoughts be in obedience to me. Refuse not the captivity of your thoughts by Christ Jesus. Every bondservant of Christ is given the mind of Christ; therefore, rejoice in the dominion of the stable mind of the Lord in your life. This new mind fosters a new desire, a new intent, and new vision for today and the future. Behold the frustrating things bow at my name. Behold the ruling authority of the Savior in your life.

I have come for the first fruit of your life. The fellowship that I offer you is part of the covenant. In the flesh of the man, Christ Jesus, I offered a holy sacrifice that you could be reconciled unto me. You heard the voice of the ministry say, "Be reconciled unto God." Now that you are reconciled, allow your reasonable services to be rendered unto me early, and I will show you a new dimension of fellowship and communion.

Boast not against those who do not rise early. Simply come as a partaker of the strength of grace. Grace brought you here this morning. Now speak of my glory, and talk of my power in your body, the temple of the Holy Ghost. The Father of lights and the Father of spirits summoned you today. I removed sleep from your eyes and drew you to the throne of grace. A scepter of righteousness is granted you by imputation, and a hand of mercy is granted to you because of my love. The innocent blood of Jesus has covered you, and the renewing of the Holy Ghost has graced you with a sanctified presence. Lift up your voice in praise unto the King Eternal, and shout for joy that your eyes see and your ears hear the voice of God. I have not allowed my grace to retreat from your life. Grace continues to shine bright as it shows you the kingdom of God. Continue to live in the Spirit, and be not desirous of vain glory. What do you have to glory about?

Righteousness belongs to me. Many are in confusion of faces today because they have sinned by pride and self-righteousness. Mercy belongs to me. Forgiveness belongs to me. Grant me glory and honor for what I have done, and cast aside the filthy rags of vain works.

I helped you in your time of need. I granted mercy instead of judgment. You were cast under the feet of your enemies. Their shoes of wrath compelled you to mourn. The spirit of sorcery prepared to rejoice as it anticipated your defeat. Witchcraft gathered its counsel and prepared a celebration of your doom. Hatred lifted its cup of wrath and prepared to serve bitterness in the presence of joy. I heard your cry in the morning of your helplessness.

Wounded by evil, you struggled for the horns of the altar. You were without strength, and hope was fading into the night, but grace came leaping above the waves of damning, fleshly undercurrents of frustration. Grace shouted with a frequency not heard by your ears and commanded an end to your trial before spiritual death. Love stretched its strong arms of mercy and goodness. Love's arms embraced you and drew you nigh the lips of grace again. While your heart was near fainting's reach, love's embrace brought peace to a mind lost in the whirlwind of a spiritual attack. Now with a mind of peace that was granted by grace, your mourning was turned into dancing. The rags of a spiritual pauper are no longer your attire, for you are now girded with gladness. Sing praises to me. Do not be silent in this life, but forever give thanks unto the Eternal Spirit that saved you.

I did not allow your foes to rejoice over you. I granted you healing for your mind and subdued your flesh by my Holy Spirit. You came nigh the gates of the grave, but I kept you alive and did not allow you to go down to the pit. I have opened your eyes to see the toll of sin in the earth. Now sing unto me, and give thanks at the remembrance of my holiness. I did not allow my anger to judge you. I allowed my favor to grant you life so that your tears in the night would be dried by the presence of morning's joy. By my favor, your mountain stood strong, and I heard your cry for help. There would have been no profit if you had gone down to the grave. You would have returned to dust. I elected to keep your feet from falling and allowed you to declare my truth. Now dance with grace that leaps higher than iniquity. Show forth the flare of gladness as a garment, and sing praise unto the King of kings, your redeemer and lover of your soul.

Rejoice at the table that is spread for you and those who love me and are called according to my purpose.

I am the shepherd of the sheepfold. Want no more, but yield unto these hands, and lie down in my pastures where still waters reside. Your soul was weary. You had troubled your own soul. I came to restore it and bring you back to the paths of my righteousness. Death schemed and sent its shadow as a fearful tormentor in a time of weakness. Fear no evil. I am with you with my rod and staff of comfort. Though you stumbled in the time of weakness, you were not barred from the table prepared in your sight. The presence of your enemies was made known at the table. They came to see you cast out, yet they saw me anoint your head with oil and fill your cup with abundance. This goodness and mercy shall follow you all the days of your life. You shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

I did not forsake you when you stumbled. I am the Everlasting Father. I am the Father of spirits and the Father of lights. I do not forsake those who stumble, but I grant them grace in my sight. I have called you by name and allowed my goodness to pass before you; therefore, go and proclaim the name of the Lord before you. Go and show forth praise, for I have been gracious unto you. I have shown you mercy. I am God, and I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious and will show mercy on whom I will show mercy.

God has not dealt with me according to my transgressions. He has not rewarded me according to my iniquities. As the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy. Surely goodness and mercy found me. They followed me and purposed not to lose me. Goodness and mercy never fail. I rejoice at the table that is spread for me and those who love God and are called according to his purpose.

Jesus is the shepherd of the sheepfold. I will want no more, but I yield unto these hands and lie down in his pastures where still waters reside. My soul was weary. I had troubled my own soul. He came to restore it and bring me back to the paths of his righteousness. Death schemed and sent its shadow as a fearful tormentor in a time of weakness. I will fear no evil. The Lord is with me with his rod and staff of comfort. Though I stumbled in the time of weakness, I was not barred from the table prepared in my sight. The presence of my enemies was made known at the table. They came to see me cast out, yet they saw God anoint my head with oil and fill my cup with abundance. This goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life. I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

God did not forsake me when I stumbled. He is the Everlasting Father, the Father of spirits and the Father of lights. He did not forsake those who stumbled, but he grants them grace in his sight. He has called me by name and allowed his goodness to pass before me; therefore, I will go and proclaim the name of the Lord before me. I will go and show forth praise, for he has been gracious unto me. He has shown me mercy. He is God, and he will be gracious to whom he will be gracious and will show mercy on whom he will show mercy.

Declare my grace to those who have stumbled instead of judgment. How will you escape the judgment of God if you are not merciful?

Despise not the riches of my goodness and forbearance and longsuffering. The goodness of God is what leads the people to repentance. Where is the sound of goodness among the people?

Where is the sound of goodness, which should be in the mouths of the priest?

Open your mouth and declare my goodness. If my goodness were cut off from the people, then how would they find repentance?

Shove contention far from you. Cleave unto obedience of the truth. Disobey unrighteousness, indignation, wrath, tribulation, and anguish. These things come upon every soul that does evil. Work good, then glory, honor, and peace shall come upon your soul.

Your flesh has waged war against you. It has leaped as a wild stallion to manifest its works. The spirit has waged war against the flesh and the fruit that is above the law has strengthened you to endure unto the crucifixion of the flesh with its affections and lusts. You are abiding at the table prepared before you. Eat the fruit of the Spirit. Gaze upon judgment and its justifiable fist. Eat love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, and temperance. Show mercy unto others and you shall behold mercy rejoice against judgment.

You were a miserable wretch. You were wicked and unclean. You were guilty before me. I forgave you, although you were not of the household of faith. I withheld punishment and kept you from bondage and hell. I have also granted you more mercy to help you with the circumstances beyond your control. I am compassionate and merciful. Go and be as I am unto you.

Confession of Faith - #288

I purpose to declare God's grace to those who have stumbled instead of declaring judgment. I cannot escape the judgment of God if I am not merciful. I do not despise the riches of his goodness, forbearance, and longsuffering. The goodness of God is what leads the people to repentance. The sound of goodness is not often heard among the people. The sound of goodness, which should be in the mouths of the priest, is not heard as often as it should be heard. I will open my mouth and declare his goodness. If God's goodness were cut off from the people, they would not find repentance.

I will shove contention far from me and cleave unto obedience of the truth. I will disobey unrighteousness, indignation, wrath, tribulation, and anguish. These things come upon every soul that does evil. I will work good then glory, honor, and peace shall come upon my soul.

Shall the peace of man rest in the arms of human flesh, or in the divinity of God Almighty?

I will not allow no man to glory in my presence. The hour that was spoken of in time past has approached you. The bloodletting of the innocent has already come. Now shall the judgment for unrighteousness come as a cloudy day. In the presence of the judgment cloud there comes a fresh wind of grace to usher in the last time of refreshing from my presence for those who are appointed unto my bride. Assimilate yourself into the bride of Christ that Jacob's trouble be not your hiding place. If you hide yourself in the time period of Jacob's trouble then will you find few avenues of escape.

The footmen of this age shall no longer run with legs bearing good news on every corner, but the sounds of horses shall bring the terror of the consequence of rejecting the truth. Be not a fool and leave the place of rest and peace, for this is the only peace upon the earth. I came to bring peace to those who would accept the message of reconciliation. The handshakes of men cannot reconcile man unto God. Many have attended religious ceremonies and shook a preacher's hand, yet were not reconciled to me by the firmness of a handshake. Shake off your traditions and come to me for the direction of my Spirit in this hour. I do move across the earth with the wind of the feast of Pentecost. Listen to the sound of the wind and tell the direction of its journey. Is it traveling in the pathway of traditions or does it travel into the harvest fields that are ripe and ready for harvest?

The night has peered through the clouds of the evening and now awaits its turn to come forth with its terror of wrath. The great day of my wrath must come, for time is running out. The sands of time are no longer up to the middle of the hour glass, but the sands of time are few in its eternal container. The time container of this age holds very little sand. Now prepare for the last of the grains of sand to drop into the bottom half of the age. My hand reaches to turn over the hour glass to begin the age of wrath. You say, "Is this grace?"

I say, "Grace has taught with love while showing forth mercy and longsuffering and patience with man." Now is the last moment of the school of grace and its teachings, then shall disgrace come in to do its teachings on the consequences of rejection of the voice, which has spoken from the mountain of grace.

I am the Lord, thy God, the lifter of the heads which have hung down. Lift up your voice to me, and I shall fill you with the fresh bread of heaven. I am giving you the daily bread for the children of the last days. Lift up your head from the frustrating effects of helplessness and know that the timing of the Lord is at hand. I am not hindered that I cannot bring these things to the place they are destined to go. Rest and relax in me, for I shall do the work in the appointed time.

Lift up your voice on high and know that the work of the Lord is more than at hand, but it is being expressed in the temples of the Lord. They are hiding places of treasures in earthen vessels. Allow the treasure to be seen now, for I must go on to the purpose for which cause I came unto you. Lift up your head and see that I do smite the hands of false peace and push back the glory seekers of the age. Come and follow me and I will show you great and mighty things.

Be not desirous of vain glory, neither be tempted by the things that surround your mind to pull you away from my grace. There lies a subtle trap before your feet to draw you away from my will. I do forewarn you and bring to your knowledge the subtle trap. Be not deceived by that which seems to be good, for there are those things that seem to be good which are not good. Just as there are people who seem to be, yet who are not, so are there things.

I come to you this morning by the spirit of wisdom and of revelation and forewarn you of the subtle trap of Satan. I have loved you with an everlasting love. My love has marched between you and the trap door again. I have stretched forth my hand to restrain and constrain you so that you do not miss that which I have foreordained for you. My will is in you. Cast it not out for that which is reserved for the dogs and those who believe not in my grace. I have given you pastors after my own heart, yet there are spirits that try to lure you away after the hirelings and the butchers of the hour.

Come with me into the arena of grace, and I will show you the exceeding riches of Christ. The unsearchable riches that I have placed in the grace of Christ await you to discover them. Be not detoured by the things of this life, neither by the promises of people. People cannot satisfy you. Only I can. I am the Lord your God. I have given you the truth and the things that you seek after shall pursue you after you have done the will of God. Do not cast away your confidence, for your confidence is the container that I will pay a great recompense of reward for. I will come looking for your confidence shortly. It is in that confidence that I will place my reward for your trust and your faithfulness.

Look again to the horizon that I have pointed you to and be not moved away from the thought of your arriving redemption. Remember that ahead of you there are the arenas of sorrow that are reserved for the children of the bondwoman. Go not back to the bondwoman's house, lest you eat the bread of the hypocrites. I have brought unto you the bread of victory and the bread of life. Eat of this bread and know of the victory, which contains all that you need.

I am the Lord your God. Be not filled with contempt, but be filled with faith. I am the Lord who made all things. Open your arms of faith this morning and receive of that which you need. I am stretching forth my hands of provision that you might reach into my arms and get that which you need. Step out on the land of faith today and get what you want, for it is reserved for you. There are no hindering things to keep you back, for I have paved a highway without any beasts or vultures to prevent you. Walk out and see that I am with you to assist and to help you in every way. Prove me now and know how real I am. The hour is late, but first I do bring to your fingertips that which I have promised. You believe in miracles?

Prepare for the wave of my miracle working hand and know that I place a miracle in your hands. You have been chosen and now I will show you of the grace that has come to your life. You stand in this grace now. There are no spirits that can wade through this grace and find you to defeat you. The grace that you stand in is the place of hiding and now there are no lions, nor beasts that can make the journey through my wilderness of grace. To the beasts, it is a wilderness, but to you, it is a paradise.

My kingdom shall not be destroyed. It is an everlasting kingdom. Of the increase of my government and peace, there shall be no end. Look within you, and behold how rich I have made you. The kingdom of God is within you. It did not come by observation. It came by grace. It is not meat and drink. It is righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.

I am granting peace where the glory of the latter house is manifested. Behold the glory of this latter house. Behold its glory. I have spoken peace unto you. Rejoice greatly, O people of God. Shout, O people of my name. I have brought peace unto you in the time of war. There are earthquakes all over the world. Allow not the sorrows in the earth to alarm you, neither allow these things to seize your faith. I have brought you out of the pit of fear by the blood of the covenant. The pits of fear have no water. Spiritual prisoners reside in pits of fear. Proclaim the truth unto the prisoners of hope, and they will turn to the strong hold of peace.

Emmanuel has come. The Governor and ruler of Israel has come. I have sent you forth as sheep among wolves. I will cause the blind to receive their sight among the wolves. Among the wolves, I will cause the lame to walk, the deaf to hear, and the dead to be raised. Among the wolves, the poor have the gospel preached unto them. Do not be offended in me, and you will be blessed.

Do not be shaken as a reed in the wind. The enemy has observed you and looked for reasons to discount your testimony. Clothe yourself with the garment of righteousness and the garment of praise. I have revealed truth unto you and hidden my secrets from the wise and prudent. I have delivered deep things unto you and revealed myself unto you. Come and receive of the rest that I am giving. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me, for I am meek and lowly in heart. I have laid up rest for your souls. My yoke is easy and my burden is light. Why sit at the gate of peace and stare at the frustrating performances of the hour?

I am not the author of these confusing things. An enemy has sent these distractions. Offer praise and cast your cares upon me. Shout for joy and bring all your thoughts into my obedience. Allow not your thoughts to become scapegoats in the wilderness of mental idleness. Allow not your imaginations to dance to the tunes of the enemy's voices. Cast down the imaginations of unbelief. They are strongholds from the past. An enemy has attempted to rebuild bunkers from past defeats. The weapons of your warfare are mighty. I have sent my weapons and destroyed the strongholds in your memory. I am washing you in my blood and refreshing you in the Holy Ghost. Be renewed and spring forth with a focused mind that thinks on the things of God.

Righteousness no longer seeks your judgment but has granted peace a kiss. The truth was buried after dying for a moment.
