Thoughts Higher Than Mine_Living Word Chronicle

The storm vented by imaginations and unbelief is over. I have entered with the work of grace on your behalf. Now shall the tide of iniquity and defeat be calmed. The disturbance caused by this storm against your mind shall be quelled (overcome). I have commanded a calm mind and restful soul. At the throne of mercy, there is another conversation and a different viewing of the scenes of the hour. I see the end of these things. Then trust in my divine wisdom, for I have not had thoughts of destroying you but thoughts of your successful end and future. You shall fare well against this enemy.

(RHEMA: The Storm Vented by Imaginations and Unbelief Is Calmed by the Grace of God)

The storm vented by imaginations and unbelief is over. God has entered with the work of grace on my behalf. Now shall the tide of iniquity and defeat be calmed. The disturbance caused by this storm against my mind is quelled (overcome). The Lord has commanded a calm mind and restful soul. At the throne of mercy, there is another conversation and a different viewing of the scenes of the hour. God sees the end of these things. I will trust in his divine wisdom, for he has not had thoughts of destroying me but thoughts of my successful end and future. I will fare well against this enemy.

A Promise of Prosperity In the Wind of Grace

You have never seen the righteous forsaken or the seed of the righteous begging for bread. I have created a tree of righteousness and not a tree of unrighteousness. Believe on me and my word and prosper. I have not left you without the prosperity of the kingdom. This kingdom is filled with riches, both naturally and spiritually. Do not lift your fingers to condemn the kingdom of God. This kingdom is a perfect kingdom fashioned by me. The kingdom of God is a designed kingdom that is filled with holiness and righteousness. Lift up your eyes unto me, and be saved. I have not brought you here to destroy your life, but I have brought you here to save you. Lift up your eyes to the approaching redemption, and rest in the confidence of the Lord, Jesus Christ.

RE: RHEMA - A Promise of Prosperity In the Wind of Grace

Grace does not go through life grasping at straws. Grace has mined the gold of the treasures of the great depths. Salvation in the Hebrew language includes the meaning of prosperity. We believe the riches of his grace has brought us salvation We should be just as carried away with the fact that grace will come just like a rushing mighty wind into the rooms of our lives. God's kingdom is an unshakable kingdom. Promises that have been laid in our hearts are not the cargo of destruction but of destiny.

LACK OF CONFIDENCE

I have never seen the righteous forsaken or the seed of the righteous begging for bread. Jesus has created a tree of righteousness and not a tree of unrighteousness. I believe on God and his word, and now will I prosper. He has not left me without the prosperity of the kingdom. This kingdom is filled with riches, both naturally and spiritually. I do not lift my fingers to condemn the kingdom of God. This kingdom is a perfect kingdom fashioned by God. The kingdom of God is a designed kingdom that is filled with holiness and righteousness. I lift up my eyes unto Jesus, and I believe I will be saved. He has not brought me here to destroy my life, but he has brought me here to save me. I lift up my eyes to the approaching redemption and rest in the confidence of the Lord, Jesus Christ.

INSPIRATION

RE: RHEMA - Grace and Mercy Unto Those Who Trust That God Has Made Them Righteous

Our trials are the architecture of grace establishing his righteousness in our lives. In the trial that is more precious than gold, we can behold in the true mirror of the spirit what is true and what is false. His righteousness is ours only through his blood. Our trial is not punitive but always instructive and doing a greater work in our lives. If we are held up to the scrutiny of others, then it also lifts us up to the observation of those who possibly would never behold the work of power and grace that is unfolding in our lives. Let us run on and immerse ourselves in the race and journey that is before us. He has already declared the end from the beginning.

As many despised the prophesies of the prophets in the Old Testament, they are doing the same today. When God finishes shaking everything that can be shaken, they will be the dust and unraveled threads of an unfinished garment that will be shaken out of Israel as Nehemiah shook his garment in a time of trying to rebuild a city destroyed by the very failure to hear and obey the words of the prophets. We will sing the new songs of the spirit, and they can have the antiquated doldrums of warmed over victories. As we face adversity, it should always call us to a fresh place of dedication to the Lord and fervently seeking his face. We should be driven to a place where we do not hear the songs and the dire predictions of the rejections of those who have as much spirit as a gnat and swallow a camel. Our song shall rise to thee of thy greatness, and we will not be silent. His mercy will give us seating in the gallery of grace that has been prepared for those who have manifested the true spirit of righteousness.

Our position in him has been established by his sacrifice. Our ability has not enhanced any feature of this portrait that is in his gallery of salvation. Many do not have the confidence to trust his love and provision. We have experienced his lavish and extravagant grace. We will embrace their shortcomings and lift them up to the arms of the God of all grace even if they will not receive the righteousness that has been given and spoken to us. He will cause them to be stunned and silent beholders of the victory parade of the righteous.

(Continued)

I am the author and the finisher. I am able to complete the thing that I have started. Though I have brought them deliverance, many do not understand the meaning of the oppressions, depressions, and the helplessness that they are feeling. Go and remind them that they are in warfare. They are wrestling against principalities, powers, and rulers of the darkness of this world.

383. How can those who are partners of the darkness defeat the darkness?

I have sent forth the call unto the bridal chambers and whispered in the ears of my bride.

384. If you have not heard the voice of redemption commanding repentance, then how will you hear the voice of rapture when it calls for you to come up higher?
