Thoughts Higher Than Mine_Living Word Chronicle

I have paid for you to stand before a throne of grace, not for you to stand before deceitful spirits of condemnation. These spirits have used the minds of the people as dumping grounds for mounds of condemnation. My people come to me for help, and many have their minds filled with thoughts of rejection. Empty these dumpsites today, and sow the powerful word of justification. I was dumb with silence and held my peace. Now fill their hearts and minds with the true word of the Lord. I was mocked and condemned for them. They called me an evildoer. I faced all the hatred of the enemy. Stand before the throne of grace. A merciful and faithful high priest is before you. They have no need to fear condemnation before me. I fell into the hands of a wicked high priest that they may stand before the righteous high priest. I was charged for you, so listen not to the charges against you. Who is he that will condemn you if I justified you? These accusing voices that you hear when you come for answers are not from your justifier. The accuser has closed the mouths of my people with his words of doubt and condemnation. Go and expose this subtle enemy. His accusing voice is as a big hand over the mouths of many. Smite his voice and his hand with this knowledge.

(RHEMA: Empty Your Mind of Doubt and Condemnation)

God has paid for me to stand before a throne of grace, not for me to stand before deceitful spirits of condemnation. These spirits have used the minds of the people as dumping grounds for mounds of condemnation. His people come to him for help, and many have their minds filled with thoughts of rejection. I determine to empty these dumpsites and sow the powerful word of justification. The Lord was dumb with silence and held his peace. Now I fill my heart and mind with the true word of the Lord. He was mocked and condemned for us. They called him an evildoer. He faced all the hatred of the enemy. I stand before the throne of grace. A merciful and faithful high priest is before me. We have no need to fear condemnation before him. He fell into the hands of a wicked high priest that we may stand before the righteous high priest. He was charged for me, so I do not listen to the charges against me. There is no one that will condemn me if God has justified me. These accusing voices that I hear when I come for answers are not from my justifier. The accuser has closed the mouths of the Lord's people with his words of doubt and condemnation. I determine to go and expose this subtle enemy. His accusing voice is as a big hand over the mouths of many. I smite his voice and his hand with this knowledge.

The Realness and the Power of the Ministry of Angels On Our Behalf

I am the Lord, and I change not. Though men change, I do not. My word is sure and steadfast. It is forever settled in heaven. You can count on my word, for it is inevitable. My word is gone out of my mouth and will not return to me empty or void. I have brought you the bread of the morning, your daily bread. Eat and be nourished. Eat and be satisfied. An enemy has attempted to beguile you. Be not beguiled. The bread that I have given is the manna of the last days. There is a famine of the hearing of the words of God, but I have prepared you a table full of manna. Eat and become strong. I have chosen you to feed the children the bread of the last days. Do not doubt the words that you hear in your ears, for they are the words of the Father. Man did not call you. Man did not choose you. I called and chose you for my own purpose and according to my own will. You did not author this relationship. I did. Now doubt not. Simply believe.

Be not frightened because of the terror of men. I am inside of you to answer them. It will not be you that speaks, but I will speak through you. I knew you before I formed you in your mother's womb. You were selected by the foreordination of God Almighty. Prepare yourself to speak all of the words that I give you. Be not afraid of the faces of men, for I am with you to deliver you out of every snare of man. I do touch your mouth with a fresh touch of the anointing and place fresh words in your mouth. Go and root out, pull down, destroy, throw down, build, and plant. I have given this power to the prophets of the last days. Jeremiah is not here any longer, but I am the Spirit that was speaking in him. I am the same yesterday, today, and forever. I do speak in men today to perform the things that I will. I do hasten my word to perform all that I have planned.

I am against the false teachers of the hour. I will hasten my judgment upon them, and they shall be destroyed, for they are causing my people to err. I have said that, "The gates of hell will not prevail against my church." Though the enemy has sent a flood of evil against my body, the enemy will not triumph over it. I have lifted up a standard against the enemy. Draw out your sword, and swing it valiantly. Be not dismayed at the faces of those who seem to be. Gather those whom the spirit of prophecy is in together, and speak against this flood. Dry it up with the words of your mouths. I have made the prophets of the last days a city protected by God. I have made them iron pillars and brazen walls. The enemies of prophecy shall gather themselves together to fight against you. They shall open their mouths against you to discredit you, but they shall not prevail against you, for I am with you to deliver you. Be not afraid. Go and dry up the flood with the words of your mouths.

RE: RHEMA - The Realness and the Power of the Ministry of Angels

On Our Behalf Ministering spirits sent to the heirs of the covenant and kingdom are all about us and more than we recognize. We look for wings when the scripture describes them more like us in human form. They can take the form of anything; however, we must be certain to be aware of their constant presence. They do not leave and come back because they are CONSTANTLY beholding the face of God for us. God's word has been carried in the form of Rhema to more than Mary. His word has been set before us at the table where angels are the servers. In the midst of a time when many will not hear the word of the Lord, there is abundance for the children. Tables are set in the kingdom filled with every variety and need. Answers and directions are the common variety among the assorted multitude of fare that is set before us.

All the forces of the enemy that would war against us will be flooded by the powerful angelic forces that have been assembled in our behalf. Cries of disclaimers fill the smog of unbelief, but the winds of prophecy that cleared the air and gave life to an ancient bone yard will clear the atmosphere of the fear and unbelief that would rain down on us in this hour. Words of those who would discredit the word that God has so abundantly given will be consumed by the very leanness that pervades their soul.

THE TERROR OF MEN

Jesus is the Lord, and he does not change. Though men change, he does not. His word is sure and steadfast. It is forever settled in heaven. I can count on his word, for it is inevitable. His word has gone out of his mouth and will not return to him empty or void. He has brought me the bread of the morning, my daily bread. When I eat, I am nourished. When I eat, I am satisfied. An enemy has attempted to beguile me. I determine not to be beguiled. The bread that he has given is the manna of the last days. There is a famine of the hearing of the words of God, but he has prepared me a table full of manna. I will eat and become strong. He has chosen me to feed the children the bread of the last days. I do not doubt the words that I hear in my ears, for they are the words of the Father. Man did not call me. Man did not choose me. He called and chose me for his own purpose and according to his own will. I did not author this relationship. He did. I do not doubt. I simply believe.

RHEMA

By Don Grigsby

The Lord gave me this word on failure and dealing with it.

Receive a fresh revelation of my power and grace. In the difficulty, I will bring forth victory. Out of the deepest pit, will walk Dynamic Deity. Out of the awful situation, will be revealed my awesomeness. Out of your lowest points, I will cause you to ascend to my highest points of blessing.

Be as Job who saw creation's graphic beauty sweep the night sky of his pain with the canvass of spoken power. Be as Ezekiel who saw the vaulted ceilings of captivity retracted to see the open door of heaven where the universe poured out glittering and shimmering jewels of a billion points of power.

Behold John as he lifted his face from the sandy granite hardness of isolation to see the One who took him and the church with one hand and with the other hand, opened the door of time and carried them into and eternity where no harsh hands would ever inflict suffering on his body again.

Look as Moses when he lifted his eyes above the limp tents of the groaning, complaining masses to see me mobilize days of creation like troops on parade to march down into the formless void of the beginning of time.

See David as he grabbed angels and stars as he danced in his dreams across fields of battle that others had never fought on before. Isaiah saw the heavens filled with the measureless greatness of my ability to mete out the heavens with the span of my hand and stretch out everything out of the closet of nothing.

Daniel wept for home but soon beheld the Builder of the houses of eternity push down kingdoms and build temples and kingdoms that only kings could dream of. In the lion's den, he saw his Creator cradle lions like kittens and feed them with the milk of silence. When David looked so painfully into the mirror of his own disappointments, he saw the face of Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow fill a glory cloud with the presence that picked him up like a shepherd would a lamb and anointed his pain with oil and his empty cup ran over with the blessing that had seemed to run and hide from him.

SALVATION

Beware that you are not found looking back to unbelief and man's assumptions.

455. Remember Lot's wife?

Whosoever shall seek to save his life, shall lose it, and whosoever shall lose his life, shall preserve it. Diligently seek me, and you will be rewarded.

456. How much effort have you used to preserve yourself?

457. How much effort have you used to seek me?

458. Am I entirely gratified when you do not seek to please me?

459. Have you ever considered that I desire to be pleased?

460. Have you read, "This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased"?

461. What do I desire to say concerning you?
