My grace has caused you to know the truth. By grace, are you saved and
not of yourself. It is the gift of God, not of works. If it were of
works, then a space for boasting would be given. This great salvation
is not by works of righteousness that you have done, but according to
my mercy, I saved you. You were foolish, disobedient, deceived, and
a slave to manifold lusts and pleasures. My kindness and love appeared
unto you and saved you according to my mercy by the washing of regeneration
and renewing of the Holy Ghost. The truth became alive unto you, and
your mind was freed from the clutches of the darkness. The truth loosed
you from the custody of the darkness. It is a mighty vehicle of translation
that liberated you from bondage. You know the truth, and it has made
you free. The truth does not become unstable, neither does it remove
itself from its borders of stability. The truth is not portable. It
remains fixed; therefore, it is reliable and dependable. The strongest
lie cannot bend the truth. The truth is not twisted because men change
words and actions. The truth does not deviate when symbols and deeds
build their walls of contradiction.

A
New Creation by the Lord's Words of Light Upon the Face of Unpleasant
Circumstances
The night is coming and then no one will be able to work; therefore,
work while it is day then will the fruit of your labor be profitable
and satisfying. The laborers are few, but the harvest is ripe and ready
for those who love the purpose of God and the church. Lift your head
from yourselves, and come into the presence of the Lord God. In my presence,
you will find the fullness of the joy that will grant you strength to
go beyond yourselves. You are without strength many times because you
have exhausted your energies on yourselves. Pour your energies into
the kingdom of God and then will you find yourselves renewed day by
day. The kingdom of God and my righteousness empowers with sufficiency
and strength. It does not leave you exhausted and listless. Come from
your corners of self-satisfying efforts, and enter into the wide-open
spaces of gratifying efforts of the giving of yourselves. Look to my
example, and behold the attitude of a servant. I did not come to be
served. I came to minister. I am in you to do a work that you will not
believe. Look up from your plates of emptiness, and behold the table
of living bread before you on the other side of emptiness. I did not
bring you to this table of emptiness. An enemy seduced you and brought
you to his table to defile you with the leaven of hypocrisy. Refuse
to sit at the table of worthlessness. Refuse to be honored by the god
of the world. Refuse to be comfortable eating the things that do not
satisfy. I have a table of living bread and living water waiting on
you. Come and eat of the life that satisfies. I have placed life before
you; therefore, choose the life that I have offered, and refuse the
death plates of hypocrisy.
Your
faith is complete because of my righteousness. Only believe the gospel
and the works of the Lamb of God. The Lamb was slain for you. The Lamb's
blood has made a way out of the pit of darkness by the blood of the
covenant. Lift your eyes to my promises today, and walk into tomorrow
with new strength and new life. I have not left you to die at the feet
of your enemies, neither have I brought you to the threshold of revival
to turn you unto the death chambers of idolatry. I have brought you
inside of the door of hope. Now behold the destruction of the adversaries
that met you at the door. Behold their defeat before your eyes.
Behold
the light of the glorious gospel as it shines on your behalf and for
my name's sake. Behold the goodness of the Lord God that has led you
to repentance. Attach your heart to my goodness, and it will cause you
to store your treasures above and not below in the world of cankerworms
and moths of destruction. Give your heart to me again, and I will show
you of the beauty of holiness that you once knew. Give me your heart
again, and I will cleanse you of the filth of carnality. Give me your
heart again and then will love flow from me through you and to others
that await the love of God in you.
Hear
these admonitions today, and give way to their light. These words have
come to make a way in the darkness that has covered your life with worry,
unbelief, and poor spiritual vision. Allow these words to enter into
your heart and your mind and then will the light of these words produce
a new creation for your future. The entrance of my words always gives
light. The entrance of these words of light has spoken upon the face
of the darkness that has troubled you. Now behold the new things that
the light has made for you. Only believe.

RE:
RHEMA - A New Creation by the Lord's Words of Light Upon the Face of
Unpleasant Circumstances
God's creative voice will demand that the darkness pull back its curtains
reveal light. God will turn the destruction before us inside out and
show us a brand new world. Nothing is not in God's vocabulary. Our cups
of emptiness will be flattened by the weight of the provision that will
turn it into platters of plenty. Obstructions and road blocks will become
high speed access to spiritual destinations. Defeat and disgrace are
the implements of the dust of the earth. God speaks and the dust becomes
just like him. God will turn every word and weapon that is thrown at
us and redefine the meaning of its structure. There is only one letter
difference between the words least and beast. The least shall become
the greatest and the beasts shall lie down because he will bless us
with all the letters and words that he is. He only changed one letter
of Abraham's name in the Hebrew. He added his own letter name of Yah
which will was a h sound. When God insets his words and pronouncements
into our lives we become different people and the circumstances become
blessed instead of bitter. The gospel is not old but every day it speaks
good news to new hearers. As we speak his words we will see the circumstances
that seem to be unpleasant become the pleasant land of our abiding.
ADVERSARIES, HYPOCRISY, AND SEDUCTION
The night is coming and then no one will be able to work; therefore,
I choose to work while it is day then will the fruit of my labor

the Lord God. In his presence, I will find the fullness of the joy

myself renewed day by day. The kingdom of God and his righteousness
empowers with sufficiency and strength. It does not leave me exhausted
and listless. I come from my corner of self-satisfying efforts and

RE:
RHEMA - Dance In the Invisible Rain of Blessings of the Future
We have only to remember that the prophet described him as the God
who hides himself. Habakkuk 3:4 describes the hiding of his power.
The latest 2 Micron All Sky Survey shows by the invisible infrared
a fantastic view of 1.5 million galaxies that most are hidden by dust.
One of the latest X-ray images by the X-ray Chandra probe shows us
the brilliant colors of oxygen burning in the darkness that is mirrored
in visible light. It just lets us know that even when things look
dark, that God is in the curtains about to burst forth with tremendous
demonstrations of his power. In Job 38: 9, the darkness as a swaddlingband,
indicates that God stands just beyond our sight with a brand new creation
wrapped in a baby blanket for us!
God
spoke to us recently and said,
I
can take all the things that you see and turn them into all the things
that do not exist because I am the existence of the unseen. Yet, I
have already seen all the things you do not think exist marching triumphantly
on parade through the door of your nothing. Your problem is the parable
of your prevailing. Fear has drawn you sketches of what it says is
coming, and you have started a picture gallery in your mind. My presence
is the hallway out of your mind and brings you into my courts of miraculous
supply. My Spirit has hidden behind sunsets, ridden on the edges of
storms, hovered above the dust of battle, and is just inside tent
doors. Just remember that the trouble that you are so alarmed about
is just putting up the tent for the arrival of your victory celebration.
Paul loved with such a consuming love that he
wished that he were accursed from Christ for his brethren, his kinsmen
according to the flesh. He knew that Christ was God blessed forever.
You will not love like Paul until you know me as Paul knew me. He
had a relationship with me that soared high above his confidence in
the flesh. He counted the things that were gain to him loss for Christ.
He wanted to know me, the power of my resurrection, and the fellowship
of my sufferings. He wanted to attain unto the resurrection of the
dead.
171.
How will you pass from death to life if you do not love your brethren
with a fervent love?
The
cold love of the hour will not carry you across the bridge that goes
from death to life. You must be baptized with the fire of love. Only
by the fire of love is the prize of the high calling of God in Christ
Jesus illuminated and desired. Only the consuming fire of my love
can destroy the confidence that you have in the flesh. Give me your
confidence that you have in the flesh, and I will grant you a baptism
of love. Only then will you know me the way that I desire you to know
me.
172.
When you meet the hatred of this world, what will you do if you have
not journeyed across life's bridge?
You
know that you have passed from death unto life because you love the
brethren. If you do not love your brother, you abide in death. Love
will compel you to lay down your life for the brethren. You perceive
the love of God because Christ laid down his life for you.
173.
How will you lay down your life for your brethren when you have this
world's good and see your brethren have need and shut up your bowels
of compassion from them?
174.
Where is the love of God in you?
You
must love in deed and in truth, not in tongue and word. Seek a baptism
of love and that love will work faith unto total victory and the miraculous.
I desire you to experience miracles as though they were as common
as the exploits of humanity.
175.
Do you desire to possess love that is more prevalent than the human
exploits of this world's icons?
