The Mountainous Walls of Impossibility Are Borders of Safety and Walls for Portraits of Faith, Not Intimidating Structures of Limitations and Fear

By Moses Hightower

The journey through your present trial is through a valley, not over mountains. I have carried you through valleys before; however, this is a different type of valley. I desire you to experience the beauty of the valleys and to learn things about valleys that will aid you in helping others. The mountain walls of this journey encroach upon your pride. Allow these huge overlapping things to fashion great trust within you. I have placed these huge things along the way as borders of safety and walls for portraits, not for intimidating structures of limitations and fear. Your view of things is not dependent upon you but on me. I have placed my view within you. Because you cannot see through the walls of your valley is no reason to view these mountains as displays of trouble and impossibility. I have arranged the walls of your valley for my own purpose in your life and the lives of others. The huge walls of your valley have separated you from many that I have excluded from your life. They will not come over these huge problems to fellowship with you; therefore, their unwanted hindrances and distractions are alienated on the other side. The huge problems that face you are ordered to stand only. Come near them and touch them. They do not bite, neither can they devour you. I have commanded their silence and forbade them to move. Now accept the opening of your ears to hear my voice as you walk along the mountainous walls of God selected valleys. I have silenced the vocal echoes of these walls and commanded beautiful portraits of faith instead of intimidating roars of fear and loneliness. This valley is your home for awhile. Rest and view the portraits placed on the walls of your abode by the words of my faithfulness. Behold their beauty, for they are from the mind of the one who created the walls. Behold what I see instead of what you see. Behold the beauty of the walls of the valley. I have made them out of the finest that impossibility has to offer. These walls of impossibility now serve you. They stand in silence and obedience to me as they offer you protection and walls for portraits of faith. Behold the portrait of prosperity that I am placing on the wall of financial impossibility. Behold the portrait of healing that I am placing on the wall of contrary sickness and disease. Behold the portrait of eternal life that I have placed on the wall of intimidating condemnation and damnation.

Condemnation, Fear, Huge Problems, Impossibility, Limitations, and Mountain Walls

By Debbie McBee

"In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth 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."

The journey through my present trial is through a valley, not over mountains. The Lord has carried me through valleys before; however, this is a different type of valley. He desires me to experience the beauty of the valleys and to learn things about valleys that will aid me in helping others. The mountain walls of this journey encroach upon my pride. I will allow these huge overlapping things to fashion great trust within me. He has placed these huge things along the way as borders of safety and walls for portraits, not for intimidating structures of limitations and fear. My view of things is not dependent upon me, but on him. He has placed his view within me. Because I cannot see through the walls of my valley is no reason to view these mountains as displays of trouble and impossibility. He has arranged the walls of my valley for his own purpose in my life and the lives of others. The huge walls of my valley have separated me from many that he has excluded from my life.

RE: RHEMA - The Mountainous Walls of Impossibility Are Borders of Safety and Walls for Portraits of Faith, Not Intimidating Structures of Limitations and Fear

Impossibility is not in the thesaurus of heaven. Our El Shaddai has the power to erase every obstacle and protest that stands in the way of miracles. God in the beginning of time spoke into the nothingness of emptiness and out of that came all of natural creation. We should never be appalled at anything that happens in the natural world or invisible world because he made them both. Our God made their laws and limitations and he can change them or erase them as he pleases. We should not be intimidated by any limitation that seems to encompass us about. Israel had an impossible and daunting task to get 3 million people across the Red Sea and deal with an army of the enemy behind them. All God has to do is speak to the wind, the light, or to fire, and they will fight the darkness and deliver the people of God from their impossible situations. We are dealing with people in impossible situations in society and culture. We see domestic situations and criminal activities that seem to be endless. Yet, God in his infinite wisdom and longsuffering allows them to exist. Why? He wills that they all might meet his mercy and love through a vessel of grace. God has given us the very force and power of creation hidden in the scrolls of letters that his Spirit has given us. Miracles and wonders are scripted in these declarations. We will see a world of awesome and unbelievable events take place before the coming of the Lord. Never doubt that as Zachariah said that God would move the mountains that form valleys and turn it all into a plain of grace and upon it a temple of majestic power.

By Moses Hightower

Look up little one, your redemption draws nearer than ever before. Look up. The arms of the redeemer reach for arms caught up by Resurrection's power. The voice of redemption prepares to sound. The light of glory shines in your heart to prepare you for the great catching away of saints in my own body. Leap for joy because of the love of God that has revived in you. Now your reason for serving me is motivated by that love and not because of the servant attitude of one outside the house. I desire you to live with me as a lover and not as a slave. A slave does not know what the Master does, but you know because you are espoused to me through my name and my blood.

I look up, for my redemption draws nearer than ever before. I look up. The arms of the redeemer reach for arms caught up by Resurrection's power. The voice of redemption prepares to sound. The light of glory shines in my heart to prepare me for the great catching away of saints in his own body. I leap for joy because of the love of God that has revived in me. Now my reason for serving the Lord is motivated by that love and not because of the servant attitude of one outside the house. The Lord desires me to live with him as a lover and not as a slave. A slave does not know what the Master does, but I know because I am espoused to him through his name and his blood.

RE: RHEMA - The Gospel, the Wealthiest Cargo Known to Man

The riches of his grace are displayed in the gospel many ways. His value that he places on the church is indicated by a parable. A man found a treasure in a field and sold all he had and bought the field and hid the treasure in the field. Potential is the message that grace screams to us. What we could become by the power of the new nature that comes by believing the gospel is unlimited. Treasures of life rather than the poison of death are our portion. People are daily drinking the rat poison of sin and lies. They are being filled with the garbage and sewage of hell that only exacerbates their sin sickness. We have obtained health and wealth by the good news of the gospel. God wills that we be in health and prosper as our soul prospers. The gospel’s glad tidings have brought us to the treasure rooms of the King. As the Creator, he has opened Pandora's Box of torment and crushed the box with the blow of the cross. He has opened for us a new and living way into an Eden of everlasting prosperity that will eclipse the plains of famine. As we share the gospel with others, they will bring all their friends into the fellowship of the wealth of heaven. If Moses counted the reproach of the people of God greater riches than all the treasures of Egypt, then how great are the riches of the gospel. As we share the blessing of God in the fields, there will be such an overflow of harvest that it will no longer be like the machines in the fields but as the nets of the immense seas of life. We have been promised by the prophets that the abundance of the seas would be converted unto us. Sin brings poverty where it finishes its work. Salvation by grace always multiplies God's treasures into more than we can carry away.

I ate the Passover with the disciples before I suffered. I knew I would suffer, yet I ate the Passover with them.

359. Have you drawn back from fellowship with me because of your sufferings?

Many dreams lay dead in this valley that you are traveling through. I spoke to many as they traveled this same path, but they did not believe. Do not listen to the voices of the serpents in the trees of the valley. These serpents are the children of Eve's enemy. Do not listen to their words, lest they spoil your faith. Listen to the voice of the Spirit of God. You have ears. Now hear what I am saying unto you. My blood has made a way for you. My blood has paid the debts you owed.

360. Now who will lay any charge to you, for you are my elect?

I rejoice in you today, Lord, for this is a day that you have made. Even though there are trials, you have allowed me to see another day and I am glad. The journey through my present trial is through a valley, not over mountains. You have carried me through valleys before, and although this is a different type of valley, I give you thanks that I can experience the beauty of these valleys and learn things about the valleys as you desire. The things that you are allowing me to learn about valleys will aid me in helping others. The mountain walls of this journey have encroached upon my pride, and by your grace I allow these huge overlapping things to fashion great trust within me. I am secure in the knowledge that you have placed these huge things along the way as borders of safety and walls for portraits. These things were not placed as intimidating structures of limitations and fear.

I am comforted that you have given me eyesight that is not dependent on my view of things but on you. You have placed your view within me. Because I cannot see through the walls of my valley is no reason to view these mountains as displays of trouble and impossibility. You have arranged the walls of my valley for your own purpose in my life and the lives of others. I trust you Lord, and my full confidence is in you. The huge walls of my valley have separated me from many that you have excluded from my life. They will not come over these huge problems to fellowship with me; therefore, their unwanted hindrances and distractions are alienated on the other side. The huge problems that face me are ordered to stand only. I will come near them and touch them. They will not bite, neither can they devour me. I shout with joy, for you have commanded their silence and forbade them to move. Now I accept the opening of my ears to hear your voice as I walk along the mountainous walls of the valleys that you have selected for me.

You alone are worthy, and you have silenced the vocal echoes of these walls and commanded beautiful portraits of faith for me instead of intimidating roars of fear and loneliness. This valley is my home for awhile. I will rest and view the portraits placed on the walls of my abode by the words of your faithfulness. I behold their beauty, for these walls have come from your mind and been created for me to enjoy. I behold what you see instead of what I see. I behold the beauty of the walls of the valley. I am content because you have made them out of the finest that impossibility has to offer. These walls of impossibility now serve me, and I am relieved. They stand in silence and obedience to me as they offer me protection and walls for portraits of faith. I behold the portrait of prosperity that you are placing on the wall of financial impossibility. I behold the portrait of healing that you are placing on the wall of contrary sickness and disease. I behold the portrait of eternal life that you have placed on the wall of intimidating condemnation and damnation. I give you honor, and I give you praise!

RE: PRAYER OF THANKSGIVING - March 11, 2007

Every valley is formed by the heights of hills or mountains on either side. When the Lord is spoken of as Our Rock in the Old Testament, it is from a Hebrew word for mountain, fortress, or citadel. If our lives find us in the low lands and the valleys of depression and battle, then we know that the citadel of God's power is near, and he will show up and bring us through the valley to victory. Why did God make valleys or great depths? Why are death and darkness such deep imperceptible spaces? God's wisdom is higher than heaven and deeper than hell. God is greater than the highest dimensions of our observation and the deepest voids of our imagination. When we reach as far as our minds can reach, there Jesus stands with more of himself than we can ever experience. When we fall in love with him and begin to perceive his unsearchable greatness, we will be delighted in him so much that we will not even worry if things do not get fixed to our expectations. So many things come our way to get us to cease from measuring and developing specifics that are soon lost in the dust of the chariot of the Almighty. Gates of pearl and mansions of gold and the holy city itself are just faint ripples on the surface of the pool of the depths of God's love that want to give us so much.
