You have observed the boisterous wind in the storm instead of focusing on me. I am teaching you to walk on the waters of your circumstances. Know of a truth, that I will not allow you to fall; therefore, do not doubt because of the manner in which the wind blows. I am the master of the wind, and I will cause it to cease. With men, it is impossible to control the unruly wind in this trial, but with me, all things are possible.

I have observed the boisterous wind in the storm instead of focusing on God. The Lord is teaching me to walk on the waters of my circumstances. I know of a truth, that he will not allow me to fall; therefore, I do not doubt because of the manner in which the wind blows. God is the master of the wind, and he will cause it to cease. With men, it is impossible to control the unruly wind in this trial, but with the Lord, all things are possible.

The Power of the Identity Factor In Our Relationship With Christ

I have brought you into a new fellowship with me. You will experience newness and freshness in the Spirit. You will grow to truly understand the power of the gospel and what it has done for you and others. I desire you to truly understand your identity in Christ. There is more to the identity of the believer than you understand. There is much more to the identity factor than you realize. You have looked to your humanity and the world. Look again to God and his Christ. The image of God has moved throughout the earth. I have not left you without an image of the proper identity. Many are shackled today because of the crisis in relationship to identity. The icons of the hour proceed from the spirit of error, the spirit of antichrist. The spirit of error does not rule. The spirit of truth rules. I have sent the Word of life as the supreme Icon for your example and identity. Be not conformed to the icons of the world. Be transformed into a true son of God by the renewing of your mind.

Many are frustrated because they do not know who they are. Spirits and mental attitudes of the world have fostered the images of frustration. Be not spoiled by the mental giants of the world. I have not chosen the minds of men as a source for your thoughts. I have chosen the mind of God as your source. You have the mind of Christ. Many are serving another Jesus. Many serve a Jesus without a cross. Many serve a Jesus who allows man to rule as lord of their lives. This is not of the kingdom of God but of another kingdom. My kingdom has come. It has brought my will to you, and it now abides in you. Let my will be done in you and then it will be done in the earth.

RE: The Power of the Identity Factor In Our Relationship With Christ

Last week the Lord spoke to me and said,

You do not need any more icons in your life. Many people have substituted coming to church, praise and worship, and bible reading for seeking me. I have commanded that all who would come to me should seek me. Men have substituted "its" for me. Israel said, "The ark it will save us." You cannot live for me on impersonal things that are associated with me. You must have that burning, breathing, listening relationship of being face to face and mouth to mouth with me. This is the relationship that I have desired from the beginning, not man's stale arrangement for a prayer meeting or the stilted and dead ceremony that so many have for a service that tries to experience me. I have yearned for those who would not limit me and allow my people to stretch themselves beyond themselves to the beginning of a powerful walk that would project them into a dimension where they would be in control of their lives and life would not control their emotions or faith.

Everywhere we look, there are images of God that are passed off on us as the real thing. We must refuse to bow down to or worship the false images of powerless creature ideas that reach for our worship. His spiritual image beckons to us on the limits of our fleshly horizons like a 21st century burning bush or pillar of fire that stands beside the door of a promised land that flows with the milk and honey that has already been prepared for us. We must determine to keep him as our focus as he goes before us in a shekinah or power that will only give us the proper image for us to be constantly changed into from glory to glory by his spirit.

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. (Genesis 1:1-3)

RHEMA

As I was praying few days ago, the Lord spoke this to me.

Satan has tried to attack, terrorize, and hijack everything I have promised. He has and will never be successful. If I said it would come to pass, watch it unfold. Everyone who has dared to stand up and believe my words has been subjected to all kinds of false accusations, but I will always vindicate them. Fear is a wind that is a passing vapor in the desert. In a short time, it is gone. Satan's tactics turn to vapor quickly. Satan will be crushed between the feet of the believers and the earth itself that recognizes their God. Know that my words will never fail to create their own success and fulfillment. Your enemy will be cut to pieces by the sharp edges of the avalanche of the pages of written and spoken words that are being fulfilled. I could open for you all the treasure vaults of wisdom. The chapters that you read in my word are just the covering on the doors to entire rooms filled with treasure.

How much would you know?

How much would you leave alone?

How much could you stand to know?

How much could your ego stand to know?

I show you a mystery. There are ways that I cover and protect what you do not understand and would call hard or cold and without feeling. I encase water droplets in cold crystal in the chaos of the heights of the heavens so that they may fall softly to the hard earth below and not be torn apart before they arrive.

Then the scripture came to me, Psalms 147:16, "He giveth snow like wool"----wool for protection! Sometimes the things that I had viewed as cold and unfeeling, now fit into this revealed wisdom. I thought you might especially like the last part.

Do not be bound by your traditions, for behold I do a new thing. Many of the new things that I do will be nameless to you at first, so be not afraid to trust me when you do not recognize the things that you see happening. You have been bound by your traditions. You have made the word of God of no effect by them. Come unto the pathway of new things, and there you will behold me in a different dimension. I desire to reveal to you the depth of the riches of my wisdom and knowledge. My judgments are unsearchable, and my ways are past finding out.

184. Who has known my mind?

185. Who has been my counselor?

186. Do you think that the things that you do in worship and praise are the extent of worshipping me?

Then come out into these new dimensions, and allow me to show you the things that are possible in true worship and true praise. Much of what you have done in the past is according to your traditions. I desire to teach you how to worship me in spirit and in truth. Behold the true worshippers coming in the distance.

187. Have you ever seen this kind of worship?
