Thoughts Higher Than Mine_Living Word Chronicle

Many have allowed themselves to be exiled in the corners of their own kingdoms, subjugated and enslaved by their own actions of self-justification and revenge. Remember, there is no earthly heritage worth preserving at the expense of your spiritual inheritance. Many have lost their spiritual heritage because they have chosen to fight with carnal methods rather than submitting to the ways of the Lord. My ways are spiritual. Fight the good fight of faith, but understand what that means. The weapons of your warfare are not carnal, but they are mighty through me to the pulling down of strongholds and every high thing that exalts itself above my knowledge. My knowledge will not fail, for there is no failure in me. I am compassionate, and I have your good in mind. Allow me to fulfill that which I have chosen for you, and seek not the things you have set as earthly goals for yourselves. Seek the counsel of godly men, for there is safety in a multitude of counselors. Learn to rule in peace and then will you never be harsh with orders from laws, but the spirit of the law of God shall rule and abide unto effective leadership. Use your laws instead of grace and you will force others to fight. Force others to fight and you will be defeated because you cannot fight and win. I will not defend you in the fights you author by your own schemes. Follow after me and then the leading of my spirit will show you the way to fight by the vengeance of the Lord and not the vengeance of man.

I remember that there is no earthly heritage worth preserving at the expense of my spiritual inheritance. Many have lost their spiritual heritage because they have chosen to fight with carnal methods rather than submitting to the ways of the Lord. His ways are spiritual. I determine to fight the good fight of faith and understand what that means. The weapons of my warfare are not carnal, but they are mighty through him to the pulling down of strongholds and every high thing that exalts itself above his knowledge. The Lord's knowledge will not fail, for there is no failure in him. He is compassionate, and he has my good in mind. I allow him to fulfill that which he has chosen for me and not seek the things I have set as earthly goals for myself. I purpose to seek the counsel of godly men, for there is safety in a multitude of counselors. I determine to learn to rule in peace and then will I never be harsh with orders from laws, but the spirit of the law of God shall rule and abide unto effective leadership.

Travel In the Resurrection, the Elevator, Down Into the Lives of Lost Souls

I have given you a bridge of grace. This bridge has as its foundation, my righteousness. An elevator has been supplied so that you may go in and out, find pasture, and to minister. This elevator is operated by the resurrection power of my Spirit. You entered the elevator of love this morning and were transported into my presence. No one can prevent you from entering into my presence. I have given you the key. Use the key to the secret place, for there are you hidden from your enemies and their words. Do not fear their faces or their words. I have given you "hard-headed" faith.

I called you to be a prophet. My gift and calling is without repentance. Whatsoever I command you to speak, that shall you speak. Be not afraid of their faces, for I am with you to deliver you. I put forth my hand again and touch your mouth. I have placed my words in your tongue. Go and root out, pull down, destroy, throw down, build, and plant. I will hasten my word to perform it. Speak the words that I have placed in your tongue, and be not dismayed at the people's faces. I have made you a defenced city, an iron pillar, and a brazen wall against all evil and those who open their mouths against you. They shall fight against you, but they shall not prevail against you, for I am with you to deliver you.

Take the resurrection's elevator, for we must go and witness to lost souls. There is no darkness on this elevator. You are supplied with all that you need. Do not be alarmed by the souls that are dying all about you. My anger and my fury are being poured out. I have made many an execration, an astonishment, a curse, and a reproach. Spiritual death is rampant. Die not with the masses. Why should you die before your time?

Cry blessing, glory, wisdom, thanksgiving, honor, power, and might unto your God for ever and ever. Fall before me on your face and worship with all that is in you. Salvation belongs unto me. Be thankful, and bless my name, for I have given you my name as a hiding place. It is a strong tower. The righteous run into it and are safe. Look through the windows of the elevator, and see the souls plunging into hell. As a giant waterfall, souls are plunging into hell. Let us go and rescue those called to be saved. Do not be distracted with issues that come out of men's hearts. I have called you to labor with me to win the lost. Come. Let us go into the entire world. Preach the gospel. Those who believe will be saved.

I have shined the bright light of the gospel into the world. No cloud or covering of evil can prevent this light from shining through to the souls that shall be saved. The light of the gospel cannot be covered with the dark clouds of the evening hour. I have made my light to shine out of darkness, and the darkness does not comprehend it. Soar in heavenly places with me, and you shall be a carrier of this glorious gospel. The gospel light is shining. Remain in the light, and travel with me into the lives of the lost of this world.

RE: RHEMA - Travel In the Resurrection, the Elevator, Down Into the Lives of Lost Souls

The same one that has ascended has descended. When he ascended on high, he led captivity captive and gave gifts unto men. We could not come to him so Calvary bridged that gulf between us. God has lowered the ladder of grace and made it and escalator into the regions of the lost. When he ascended on high after leading captivity captive, he had the keys of death and hell. Hell and death cannot hold the captives that we have spoken liberty to.

The Lord spoke to me and said,

"Everything in creation awaits the voice of creation to trigger their freedom. Sin has declared an eternal bondage. I have declared eternal freedom. Lift up your voice like a trumpet, and I will blend all the instruments of power with your voice and will play a symphony of grace that has never been heard. Songs of deliverance belong in the day and in the night. Exodus is not a one time event. I will roll back the seas of bondage and destroy every pursuing enemy today. I will use the words of faith that I have put in your mouth as a rod of power over the enemy."

God has given us light enough to overwhelm every darkness. Resurrection has released more than enough regeneration to wash away the destroyed dungeons of disgrace.

I soar in heavenly places with him, and I shall be a carrier of this glorious gospel. The gospel light is shining; therefore, I will remain in the light and travel with him into the lives of the lost of this world.

INSPIRATION

RE: RHEMA - Beware of a False Gospel, and Protect Your Children from Witchcraft and Sorcery

Many are the components of lies, but there is only one stream of truth from the throne of God, vie the Living voice that waters the garden of a relationship. As the rivers watered the Garden of Eden, so do the words of fresh prophetic waters satisfy our soul. The voice of the Lord in the garden was their source of living water. It has evaded many today who would lean on the flesh that the living waters of John 7 are more than tingly emotion. When he said the words that he spoke were Spirit and life, he was identifying the waters flowing out of our belly. Spiritual pride will lead us to listen to the voices that only satisfy our desire thus turning our lust into a cannibalistic monster. Spiritual adultery will turn into the dens of sorcery and destruction. Self deification follows those who refuse to hear the voice of truth. His table of the statutes of creative declarations has been prepared for those who will come and partake of it.

(Continued)

I am the supreme architect, and I have designed you to be a success. Follow the plan of life, and death will not be your plague. I have not allowed your achievements to be ruined by the enemy of your soul. I started a good work in you, and I will perform it until the day of my coming. I did not create you to fail. The assumed failure that the enemy has threatened you with is only his plan for your life. He is not the finisher. I am. Greater am I, who is in you, than he that is in the world.

41. Shall the lesser gain an advantage over the greater?

The severe frost of cold love shall not kill the young plants that I have given birth to. I am baptizing my body with a fresh love that will consume the frost bite of the hour. Enroll in this finishing school, and allow me to put the finishing touch of love on you and in you. Finishing school will allow you to finish this race in complete victory. You will not barely be a success. You will be a success by a large margin.

42. What is the difference between light and darkness?

That is the difference between your success and your defeat. You will not almost lose. There is no losing in me. I am the victor, and I have guaranteed your victory. I am placing the last coat of spiritual varnish on the church. It shall shine brighter than many suns. There will be no darkness in it, nor any darkness on it. Arise and shine. The finishing touch of grace is being applied to your life. No one prevented you from being born again.

43. Who will prevent you from being translated into a finished creation?

I am the Author and the Finisher.

44. Who will prevent me from completely performing what I started?

I have opened your spiritual eyes so that you may see. Many have eyes, and they see not. Many have ears, and they hear not. Rejoice that your eyes see and your ears hear. I am speaking clearly in this hour. My sheep hear my voice. My voice is heard by all those who are mine. I have given you hearing ears. Now come to me in the mornings, and commune with me, and I will teach you all things that are necessary for achieving my purpose in the earth. The enemy has sent spiritual viruses into the battle. These viruses have affected the prayer life of my people. You are not ignorant of the devil's devices.

45. How can you keep free of spiritual viruses if you do not pray?
