Do not be afraid to follow the voice of the Spirit, for my sheep know it. Do not follow another voice. I have secured you in the grace of God. I saved you by grace. I am keeping you by the same grace. Do not fear. I am the good shepherd. I have not given you a stone. I have not given you a scorpion. You asked to know me. I have not given you a serpent. You came to me as a little child. I answered you as a loving parent. Now do not be intimidated by those who doubt the voice of the Lord in this measure. You prophesy according to the proportion of faith; therefore, accept the measure that has been poured to you, and go on to the high calling of God. Everyone is not called to fulfill the same thing. You must minister as the ability that I give. Do not lose your relationship while fighting with others over whether I am in you or not. Your fruit justifies who you are. Do not fight them. If they fight to destroy you, then who are they?
(RHEMA: The Tormenting Spirits of the Night Are Held In Check by Your Ministering Spirits)
I am not afraid to follow the voice of the Spirit, for his sheep know it. I will not follow another voice. He has secured me in the grace of God. The Lord saved me by grace. He is keeping me by the same grace. I do not fear. Jesus is the good shepherd. He has not given me a stone. He has not given me a scorpion. I asked to know him. He has not given me a serpent. I came to him as a little child. He answered me as a loving parent. I will not be intimidated by those who doubt the voice of the Lord in this measure. I prophesy according to the proportion of faith; therefore, I accept the measure that has been poured to me and go on to the high calling of God. Everyone is not called to fulfill the same thing. I must minister as the ability that God gives. I can lose my relationship while fighting with others over whether God is in me or not. My fruit justifies who I am. I determine to not fight them. If they fight to destroy me, then they are my enemies.

Faith’s Expression of Its Vision of Peace In the Midst of a Storm
(Part 1)
I have brought unto you plenteous redemption by the holy blood of Jesus Christ. The enemy cannot tread upon this sanctified blood. The blood of the Lamb of God is not an avenue for lions and vultures, but the sanctified blood is a new and living way for the redeemed. As long as condemnation is in the earth, then shall you feel the wind from its breath. As long as sin is in the world, you shall feel the effect of its wrath. Do not be troubled by the wind of condemnation and the effects from the wrath of sin, for my grace is sufficient for you. Grace has supplied you with a sure anchor in this time of trouble. I have given you the anchor, but you must anchor yourself in me. Many lives have been destroyed on the waters of life because many have placed their trust in the vehicles of man and flesh. If you lean on the arm of flesh instead of the arm of the Lord, you will be sabotaged by your own unbelief. Trust in the name of the Lord. Do you remember the name of the Lord that saved you while you were burning on the stormy sea of your past life?
Then that same name shall save you in this very hour. Do not rely on the speedboats of the hour. Do not rely on the small boats of man’s ideals. They are not sufficient for your journey. They shall be turned to and fro by the winds of adversity, but the ship of Zion shall not be tossed by any wind. It shall remain steadfast and immovable through every storm. I have given you the faith of Jesus Christ. Now stop comparing yourself to all these things. I did not spare my only begotten son, but I delivered him up for you and have given you all things that pertain unto life and godliness. Come from your religious concepts of spirituality, and abide in me, the ship of Zion. I am not religion speeding through this earth on a voyage of entertainment and self-indulgences. I am seeking and saving those who are lost.

Faith's Expression of Its Vision of Peace In the Midst of a Storm (Part 1)
Jesus was asked by the disciples if he cared if they perished on a boat in the midst of the storm. The very reason he came to earth was that none should perish. His desire for our safety has never changed and never will. He is a very present help in the time of trouble. His strong advice was, "Let not your hearts be troubled." Peace that he gives soaks up storms like good paper towels do spills. God allowed the disciples to be in storms more than once to show them that he was in control of all the winds and waves. Our opportunity to walk on the raging seas of life come in the midst of storms. Storms that come to our lives are faith's way of telling us we can and will make it through anything without fail. Jesus blood is a covering and shield against the terrorists attacks of the enemy. Satan can no more cross the blood of the Lord's protection than the waves of the sea can cross their limits on the shore of the land. We are standing on the firm land of truth that will never be overrun with the enemy's lies of fear.

RE: RHEMA - Though the Storms Keep Raging and the Winds Keep Blowing, Your Soul Is Anchored In the Lord - Part 4
As laughter does good as a medicine, so does bold response the storms of life. Proactive faith says that the storm is only hiding the miracle of a life time. As we see the waves whipping across the horizon, we can say, “This is the dance floor that faith is about to dance upon.” We see the lightening and hear thunder and say, “The heavens are playing a symphony of power for us to join in the victory chorus.” While the enemy was trying to lure us into an emotional trap, God was bringing forth the flood lights of grace to establish a safe zone in the midst of the adversaries forays into our path. As we battle with the heavy cannon of the prophetic word against the attacks of the night, the Lord has planned that we would have a peace and joy summit on the decks of faith. Treasure of the depths and the darkness will be hurled to the surface by the violence that we thought would take us under. His kingdom is taken by the violence of those who are not afraid to stand at the helm of the ship in the teeth of the gale, and sing a new song of power to the Lord.
We must learn that the greater the wind of resistance against us, the more abundant the power and grace that is with us. We can look back and know that the master Helmsman knows the winds and the currents where we are. He will guide us safely to the harbor of our destiny. As we sail and advance on the enemy in a sea of power that he wants us to stay away from, we can know that all the host of heaven will defend us vigorously against the marauders of the night. Great reward awaits those who will let the ballast of their ship be filled with the power of the Lord and the fuel of the anointing of the Rhema. Our ship will drive right through the heat to the enemy's lines and break forth free of his entanglements. Dreams and visions are the navigational charts of the Christian mariner. Peace and calm are the paradise island that he will bring us to.
(Continued)
Give yourself totally to me and you shall be quickened by the spirit that raised Christ from the dead. Submit to me, then will the reproach of the cross be tasted by the grace of God and not with the taste buds of carnality. There are no spiritual taste buds in carnality. There is no beauty of holiness in the world’s love. There is no peace in the many dungeons of fear’s belly. Only by my cross and your cross will you find the path that I have walked. Come and follow me in the path of righteousness for my name’s sake. There are no vipers along this path. Come and walk with me. You will have peace in the face of the terror of the age. Come and follow me. My disciples deny themselves daily. They pick up their cross daily. They follow me daily.
425. Are you my disciple?
I am the Lord. I do not change. I am the same from everlasting to everlasting, for I am the Everlasting God. I touch you with a fresh anointing of my spirit. I will do a thing in your life that you will not believe. I am and because I am, I will reward you according to my lovingkindness. I will touch you. Only believe. I touch your soul. I touch your mind. I touch your spirit.
426. Who can touch you the way I can touch you?
