Thoughts Higher Than Mine_Living Word Chronicle

I have set my love upon you. I made an oath and swore unto the Jewish fathers concerning themselves and their seed. You must cease wrestling in your mind concerning my nature and my faithfulness. I am a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to myself. I was manifested in the flesh and made like unto brethren that I might make reconciliation for the sins of the people. I came in flesh and experienced all that needed to be experienced. I have suffered being tempted while walking in flesh. Now I am more than able to succor those that are tempted. I know how you feel. I am here to help you. The aid that I supply comes from a great understanding of your need and your feelings. I know what it is like to walk in human flesh. I took on flesh like the children. My flesh was the Lamb. I was the Lion in the Lamb who shook earth and hell with my roar of victory. Now I am roaring for you. Fear not. I have overcome the world, the devil, and the flesh. Be relieved today. I understand what is going on inside of you.

(RHEMA: Traveling Unto Victory While Being Assaulted by a Belligerent Warrior)

God has set his love upon me. He made an oath and swore unto the Jewish fathers concerning themselves and their seed. I must cease wrestling in my mind concerning his nature and his faithfulness. He is a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to himself. He was made manifest in the flesh and made like unto brethren that he might make reconciliation for the sins of the people. He came in flesh and experienced all that needed to be experienced. He has suffered being tempted while walking in flesh. Now he is more than able to succor those that are tempted. God knows how I feel. He is here to help me. The aid that he supplies comes from a great understanding of my need and my feelings. He knows what it is like to walk in human flesh. He took on flesh like the children. His flesh was the Lamb. He was the Lion in the Lamb who shook earth and hell with his roar of victory. Now he is roaring for me. I will not fear. He has overcome the world, the devil, and the flesh. I am relieved today. The Lord understands what is going on inside of me.

The Voice of the Living Word Speaking In the Presence of Evil While Preserved In the Safety of the Name of Jesus

Behold my words unto you, for I will teach you how great faith is. I will show you what faith can do. I have given unto you a measure of faith. It is growing exceedingly great. I have placed the faith of Jesus Christ in the hearts of those who believe. Now behold faith on trial in the presence of impossibility. Faith is not intimidated by the voice of impossibility. Faith has an expression that comes from the faithful witness inside of you. You have a spirit that is different from the spirit of the world. The spirit of prophecy is in you, and my testimony comes from it.

You will never be satisfied with the things of the world. You have been born into another kingdom. You are created in newness of life. True righteousness and true holiness abide in you. Now allow me to live my life out in you. Through you, I will express the true faith. True faith knows no boundary. There is no circumstance that can frame true faith, but true faith frames all things and all circumstances. Come from within your circumstances, and allow me to show you the territories that are yours in this life. An enemy has shown you borders and boundaries. I have given you righteousness and holiness as boundaries and borders. In the light of righteousness and holiness, you have many treasures. Rise up from this valley of borders and boundaries where idol worshippers abide, and come into the new dimension of unlimited power.

You are not worshipping in ignorance, but you are worshipping in spirit and in truth. I have sought you and found you. I am seeking those with faith to become true worshippers. I have not promised you something and not given you the power to believe. I have given unto you the measure of faith. Show me the faith that I gave you. I did not leave you an empty relationship without a voice. You have my written word, but you also have my voice within you. The voice within you is not another voice. It is the voice of the living Word of life. Many have the letter of the word, but many do not know the spirit of the word. I have pronounced this blessing upon you and given you ears to hear and eyes to see. Continue in the faith given unto Abraham, and seek until you find the glory of the promises.

Grace will not lead you into deserts where that same grace cannot provide what you need. Faith is on a journey continually. It will not stand still with the things that are dead. Faith preserves life; therefore, faith will give life and light. You have an altar. Worship with all your heart, mind, soul, and strength and then will you know the difference between the precious and the vile. Before your face is that which is precious and that which is vile. Choose the precious blood of Jesus as your pathway, and the key of its access will be yours forever.

Journey not in the paths where my blood has not been welcomed. Only this new and living way is the highway for your journey. Be not fearful to travel the path of my blood. My blood is leading you across a desert right now. However, be not weary in your desert of testing, for here you shall learn that faith will show you the well-watered plains in a desert. Here in this desert, faith will show you strength beyond yourself. Here in this desert, faith will show you its shield from the windstorms in the desert. Here in this desert, faith will show you courage in the face of rulers of the darkness of this world.

Trust in me with all your heart. Your own understanding cannot perceive what faith sees; therefore, lean not to your own understanding, which uses human resources and abilities to perceive. In your times of trouble, lean on the arms of this mighty faith. Faith's power is not diminished in the presence of wicked powers of darkness. Faith's power rules over all the kingdoms of this world. Though the princes of these kingdoms have made slaves of others, you will not be a slave to these kingdoms or their princes. Though others have become lifetime slaves to these kingdoms and their princes, you will not reside there again. I have translated you into a new kingdom of light. The light of this new kingdom shines for you. Behold the shining light of the kingdom of God, and walk in its light before your feet.

As a giant spider of the night, the prince of darkness awaits your entrance into its lair. Though you hear the voice of the prince and feel the wind from his words, I have led you through his lair and preserved you in the safety of my name. Fear not as you travel through the lair of cruelty and darkness. The light of my tower has already subdued all these things. I have placed all the things that you have feared under my feet. All the kingdoms of this world are in subjection to me; therefore, know that the blessings imparted unto you shall shine as lights while the curse upon those who know me not shall be as slime in a pit. You have heard the voices of those who are cursed speak in your ears and voice doubtful disputations. Listen not to their slimy voices, but continue to listen to the voice of the Living Word. From inside the temple of the Holy Ghost, I have spoken. I cursed the pharaoh who sought to touch Sarah. I will curse those who curse you, and I will bless those who bless you. Embrace the blessing of Abraham. I have placed it within you. Your riches are within you.

RE: RHEMA - The Voice of the Living Word Speaking In the Presence of Evil While Preserved In the Safety of the Name of Jesus

The name of the Lord is a strong tower. We have preached and boldly declared this to be true, but many times its realization is hid from us. God will not only prepare a table in the presence of our enemies, but he will silence the negative forces that scream in our ears. With God, no Rhema word shall be without power. Impossibility is not in God's vocabulary. Borders and boundaries to faith are imagination in reverse. Unlimited vistas are the perspective of the eyes of faith. Wilderness excursions only serve to strengthen the surety of the "forever settled Word of God" in our hearts. Jeremiah was told if he would reject the vile and speak only the words that were precious that his wound would be healed. Deserts are not a place of abandonment but the entrance into a garden that is only a mirage to those who only take God as a casual friend. Fountains of expression are not wasted in the sand but become the winds that blow through our minds and remove the clouds of uncertainty. Promises that were made to us in the tents of our journey will build pavilions of power in the stormy times of life. Tides of flooding rains of the adversary will try to rise like a flash flood and wash us away, but we will stand and declare the expressions we have heard from the Lord. Many voices will vie for our attention, but we are only listening to the One who brought us out of the darkness into his marvelous light. Every word that shall rise against the redeemed shall fall to the ground as nothing. God will establish the words of the righteous as eternal covenants.

IGNORANCE, IMPOSSIBILITY, AND INTIMIDATION

I behold God's words unto me, for he will teach me how great faith is. He will show me what faith can do. He has given unto me a measure of faith. It is growing exceedingly great. He has placed the faith of Jesus Christ in the hearts of those who believe. Now I behold faith on trial in the presence of impossibility. Faith is not intimidated by the voice of impossibility.

There is no circumstance that can frame true faith, but true faith frames all things and all circumstances.

I am not worshipping in ignorance, but I am worshipping in spirit and in truth. He has sought me and found me. He is seeking those with faith to become true worshippers. The Lord has not promised me something and not given me the power to believe. He has given unto me the measure of faith. I choose to show him the faith that he gave me. He did not leave me an empty relationship without a voice. I have his written word, but I also have his voice within me. The voice within me is not another voice. It is the voice of the living Word of life. Many have the letter of the word, but many do not know the spirit of the word.

The light of this new kingdom shines for me. I behold the shining light of the kingdom of God and walk in its light before my feet.

As a giant spider of the night, the prince of darkness awaits my entrance into its lair. Though I hear the voice of the prince and feel the wind from his words, God has led me through his lair and preserved me in the safety of his name.

RHEMA

RE: RHEMA - Authoritative Grace Labors Effectually and Prevents Sin from Ruling Over Us While Aborting the Menace of Failure

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 at Moses when as 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.

If you squander the opportunity to be continually baptized with the Holy Ghost and with fire, then you will spend your time clothed with cold love instead of the fire of God. I am a consuming fire.

86. Then what should you be?

The heavens declare my glory and the firmament shows you my handiwork, but you do not have to take a voyage to the heavens to find me. I will come to the repentant hearts. I will come to those who seek me with all their heart. You shall be found of me in the day that you seek me with a whole heart. Do not seek a spiritual experience, but seek me, the Living God. Believe that my name is Jesus, and call upon that name. I will deliver all that call upon my name. I desire to grant deliverance in the sanctuary today. Be sensitive to me. I desire to impart vision to the people.

87. How will they see things that are invisible, if they only have human vision?

Moses saw me who is invisible. The invisible things of the spirit are not too far away that you must use a spiritual telescope. The invisible things of the spirit are not too small that you must use a spiritual microscope. There is no instrument to use for seeing invisible things. I desire to change the spiritual eyesight of my people that they all might have a vision. It is possible to have eyes to see and not have insight. What I will do today is worth more than money can buy, for I will touch the eyes of understanding, and my people shall know the hope of my calling. They shall know the riches of the glory of the inheritance that is within them. As lightning from heaven, so shall my power touch those who desire to see. All of this is part of the revival that I am giving.

88. How will you see the sinners that I am talking to and leading if you have not spiritual insight?

Some seek the kingdom but not my righteousness. The kingdom of God is liken unto a merchant man seeking goodly pearls, who when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had.

89. What kind of pearls did you come to the kingdom for?

Unless you came for me and my righteousness, then the kingdom shall become your enemy and unrighteousness shall become your love. Many seekers have cast their treasures in the sand of time because they never set their affections on me and things above. The sands of time are filled with used things from my kingdom because believers cast them to the ground because of frustration and misunderstanding. This is a reflection of their intent. They came to the kingdom for me to fix their lives instead of coming to the kingdom to be born again. This is the source of many distractions.

90. What have you come to my kingdom for?
