Come and Join Mercy, Truth, Righteousness, and Peace In a Celebration of Love's Act of Restoration of All Things

I am the Life. Without me, you would be dead. I have given you precious life and that life is abundant. The plentifulness that I have supplied you with is because of my love and my promises. It is restoration time. I am restoring all the things that were eaten up by the locust, the palmerworm, and the devourer. An enemy opened his mouth to eat your prosperity. I have shut his mouth and sent him away hungry for your success and wealth. I have rebuked the devourer for your sake. Rejoice in my word. It went out of my mouth and has returned to me with purpose fulfilled and satisfied.

Night is on the horizon. The horses of the tribulation are on the way to this time period. Prepare to be in my bride, for I shall take her away suddenly. She shall be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye. Her corruptibility and mortality shall be replaced with incorruptibility and immortality.

Love has sought you. It found you broken on me, the rock. Many will be ground to powder because they did not find the grace to fall on me and be broken. Brokenness comes by grace. I granted you a right spirit and a right heart. Mercy found you again, and my love satisfied justice as justice and judgment sought for everyone that was unrepentant, unloving, and unforgiving. You prayed for your enemies because grace supplied you with the desire to see them saved. You cried out for mercy to have its way in their lives. Mercy and truth met at Calvary. Righteousness and peace kissed before my throne. Now has the hand of justice lifted its gavel and declared judgment stayed on your behalf. You have found grace in my sight. Mercy is now rejoicing in a victory dance with truth. Righteousness and peace are celebrating a restorative act of my love for you. Go and declare this same act of love, mercy, and grace in the lives of those who truly believe.

BONDAGE, ENEMIES, FAILURE, JUDGMENT, POVERTY, AND IMPATIENCE

Jesus is the Life. Without him, I would be dead. He has given me precious life and that life is abundant. The plentifulness that he has supplied me with is because of his love and his promises. It is restoration time. The Lord is restoring all the things that were eaten up by the locust, the palmerworm, and the devourer. An enemy opened his mouth to eat my prosperity, but the Lord has shut his mouth and sent him away hungry for my success and wealth. He has rebuked the devourer for my sake. I rejoice in his word. The word went out of his mouth and has returned to him with purpose fulfilled and satisfied.

Night is on the horizon. The horses of the tribulation are on the way to this time period. I will prepare to be in his bride, for he shall take her away suddenly. I shall be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye. My corruptibility and mortality shall be replaced with incorruptibility and immortality.

Love has sought me. It found me broken on Christ, the rock. Many will be ground to powder because they did not find the grace to fall on Christ and be broken. Brokenness comes by grace. God granted me a right spirit and a right heart. Mercy found me again, and his love satisfied justice as justice and judgment sought for everyone that was unrepentant, unloving, and unforgiving. I prayed for my enemies because grace supplied me with the desire to see them saved. I cried out for mercy to have its way in their lives. Mercy and truth met at Calvary. Righteousness and peace kissed before his throne. Now has the hand of justice lifted its gavel and declared judgment stayed on my behalf. I have found grace in the sight of God. Mercy is now rejoicing in a victory dance with truth. Righteousness and peace are celebrating a restorative act of God’s love for me; therefore, I will go and declare this same act of love, mercy, and grace in the lives of those who truly believe.

RHEMA - Come and Join Mercy, Truth, Righteousness, and Peace In a Celebration of Love's Act of the Restoration of All Things

Abundance and plenty are the watch words of our relationship with the Lord. We are not looking for a meager measure of grace but for the manifaceted abundance that gives all sufficiency in every work. God has promised to bring all things together in Christ in this dispensation of fullness of time. Reconciling of all things in heaven and earth is better translated as restoration. He will remove every adversarial force before the power of his coming kingdom. The terrible one shall be destroyed and his prey shall be delivered. He will be the carcass trodden under feet as we rejoice in the victory and abundant blessings that flow like rivers into our lives. Recently God spoke to me and said, "Tell the people it is their heritage to live in my abundance. Any thief that tries to steal your inheritance will be caught and he will repay seven times. My abundance is for now and not just eternity. It is time for my people to sit down to the feast of mercy and peace. The celebration has already begun. Why are you looking for a pity session? Come on into the time of making merry."

Do not be a worshipper whose expressions are dependent upon feelings for a gratifying relationship with me. This is not true worship. You do not walk by feelings. You walk by faith. Now rise up continually in the mornings, and walk by the faith of Jesus Christ that is within you. Grace has provided you with renewed strength and new legs for your faith. Now seize the renewal of my righteousness in your life.

(RHEMA: The Voice of Grace Has Granted Us Forbearance and Issued the Blessedness of God)

I must not be a worshipper whose expressions are dependent upon feelings for a gratifying relationship with God. This is not true worship. I do not walk by feelings. I walk by faith, and I purpose to rise up continually in the mornings and walk by the faith of Jesus Christ that is within me. Grace has provided me with renewed strength and new legs for my faith. Now I seize the renewal of his righteousness in my life.

RE: RHEMA - The Precious Promises of God Are Sure Expressions of Well-Aimed Weapons On Our Behalf

Promises of God that are the genes of the procreative power of the Almighty are sent into our lives that we should be created in righteousness and true holiness. He, by the Rhema Word, washes the fabric of deity on a constant basis. Filters of power remove the toxins of fear from the systems of our heart and mind. Our enemy would like to infect us with his lies, but we have been inoculated with the expressions of the unwavering support of the Faithful One. Lies and doubt may say, “no” to all the promises that are “yes and amen” in Jesus Christ. He will never unlove us or throw us away. Grace has opened the treasure of the eternities to the weary traveler on the road to heaven.

Battle array has been set before us. Lines of the batteries of hell may launch salvo after salvo in a barrage of screaming that it will never be. God simply says, “Let there be,” and it comes to pass over the insurgencies of the attack of the enemy. Every day we may pass the fields of battle littered with the remains of those who have tried to fight the battle unarmed with the sword of the Spirit. We know that the battle is the Lord's, and any effort or statement of our own will only cause our defeat. He has already given us the city and the victory. His blood has assured us of the fulfillment of his promises. He has opened up his armory and loosed the weapons of his indignation on our behalf. If the cross and the gospel is the good news and testimony on our behalf, then the arc of the testimony has not fell silent. His grace proclaims our victory daily.

(Continued)

My requirements from you have been raised in standard because I have given you much. To whom much is given, much is required.

27. Why do you offer so little love to your enemies when I have given you great love when you were an enemy?

The expression of love is limited when you categorize forgiveness. I have said, “Forgive, or your heavenly Father will not forgive you.” You are not good; therefore, do not gamble on finding forgiveness from me if you have withheld it from someone else. The hand of forgiveness always reaches for the hand of reconciliation.

28. What glory do I receive if the end product of your mercy is not reconciliation?
