I have come that you might have life more abundantly. The thief has come to divert you from the fullness of life. Allow not this thief to make merchandise of you. Refuse to allow him to use your time as a commodity. Redeem the time, for the days are evil. Time is short; therefore, it is one of the most precious commodities that you have. You must sacrifice to redeem time. Time is not redeemed without something else dying for lack of attention. You have allowed the thief to kill your time. This murderer of time rises with the light and has a scheme to kill your time. In the night, he is a thief with a plan to seduce you and carry you along paths of diversion when you awaken. While you commune with your own thoughts from an unfocused mind, the trap of distraction is sprung, and another hour has been stolen by carnal news and internet mail. You are marked for communion with the darkness. I have chosen the morning for communion with me. The morning to these thieves is as the shadow of death. They are swift as the waters. Their portion is cursed in the earth. They are as the grave, for they are cold and destructive toward the things that are of life and godliness. Arise from your bed with praise on your lips, and the thief shall not enter in. Seek me early, and the bread of the morning shall be your strength and your guide.

The Lord has come that I might have life more abundantly. The thief has come to divert me from the fullness of life. I am determined not to allow this thief to make merchandise of me. I refuse to allow him to use my time as a commodity. I redeem the time, for the days are evil. Time is short; therefore, it is one of the most precious commodities that I have. I must sacrifice to redeem time. Time is not redeemed without something else dying for lack of attention. I have allowed the thief to kill my time. This murderer of time rises with the light and has a scheme to kill my time. In the night, he is a thief with a plan to seduce me and carry me along paths of diversion when I awaken. While I commune with my own thoughts from an unfocused mind, the trap of distraction is sprung, and another hour has been stolen by carnal news and internet mail. I am marked for communion with the darkness. God has chosen the morning for communion with him. The morning to these thieves is as the shadow of death. They are swift as the waters. Their portion is cursed in the earth. They are as the grave, for they are cold and destructive toward the things that are of life and godliness. I arise from my bed with praise on my lips, and the thief shall not enter in. I seek him early, and the bread of the morning shall be my strength and my guide.

Grace Prevents the Drawing Tide of Ungodliness and Worldliness from Pulling Us Out To the Sea of Destruction

There is safety in a multitude of counselors. Train your leaders to be counselors, for the hour comes where the safety of the flock will depend upon them. I am calling you to school so that you may be well trained in counseling. In your class, I am the instructor. I will draw from the wealth of experience that I have already given you. Prepare to teach what you have learned to your leaders. Wisdom will be the principal thing. Some will become fools so that they may be wise. The eye of a good counselor is controlled by the mind of Christ and not by natural wisdom or assumed wisdom. Many who think they are wise are fools. Do not be tempted by fame. Remember, I made of myself no reputation. If you seek a reputation, you will be lured into the path of worldliness. There is nothing but spiritual death that awaits all who journey down its paths; therefore, go not on a voyage where you know there is no return. I have set before you death and life. Choose life; therefore, choose not fame and reputation. The flesh is weak. Give not that which is weak this dangerous advantage by exposing it to its only source of strength. When you are completely yielded to the spirit, the flesh has no power. Does the darkness have power to prevail in the presence of the light?

Come into my presence, and allow me to shine with the glory of my brightness and then shall your flesh become weak as the darkness in the presence of the light. I am the Great Light. All other lights are only dim imitators of me, the True Light. Be not seduced by false lights. They come as beautiful women. They are whores and sorcerers; therefore, be not deceived by their manifestations of seemingly good lights. These tempests are ministers, and they come as angels of light. Every light is not the real light; therefore, be wise as serpents and harmless as doves. Do not climb in bed with these angels of the night. I have placed this whore into a bed; therefore, do not commit adultery with her. The great tribulation is reserved for all those who become disloyal to their first love. Grace is given, and it teaches to deny the ungodliness and worldly lusts of the hour. Live soberly, righteously, godly, and the tide of ungodliness and worldliness will not wash you out to the sea of destruction with its waves of trickery and subtlety.

Look for me, the Blessed Hope, and love my appearing. I gave myself for you. I redeemed you from all iniquity. I am purifying unto myself a peculiar people, zealous of good works. How can my good works shine before men if your light shines from the bed of spiritual adultery?

What fellowship does light have with darkness?

What concord does Belial have with me?

What part does a believer have with an infidel?

What agreement does the temple of God have with idols?

Come from these worldly influences, and be separate. Touch not the unclean thing, and I will receive you. I am your Father. You are my son. Honor the relationship that you have with me and stay far away from the influences of ungodliness and worldly lusts. Grace is given to you. Now allow it to teach you continually. Grace is your bodyguard. Trust the wisdom of grace, and live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present world.

RE: RHEMA - Grace Prevents the Drawing Tide of Ungodliness and Worldliness from Pulling Us Out To the Sea of Destruction

Where sin abounds, grace does much more abound. When the enemy comes in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord will raise up a standard against it. The second law of thermodynamics is that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. This means that God will never allow ungodliness and worldliness to go unchallenged and unchecked. In the book of Romans, it declares that God will however in the supernatural much more abound to us in his grace and power than anything of evil will try to cast upon us. Grace has built its walls and bulwarks of protection. It has created its safety zones of holiness for us to move freely in. We are our brother's keepers. As we encourage and edify one another in every challenge, we become the facilitators of system of grace that will never fail. We are always at touching distance from God and one another. We must loose ourselves from the false impression that we are by ourselves in this effort. God is for us and with us, and we are all parts of a strong body that grace is growing in the earth. Lust may display its haughty images. The glitzy world may try to get our attention. We will refuse as Joseph did to Potipher's wife. We cannot sin against the great love that grace has embraced us with. We have been bought with a price. We are not our own for we belong to the heavenly Bridegroom. We must never let our defenses down against sin. It should never become common in our minds. We should be as Paul at Athens when he beheld the idolatry there. We should always be greatly stirred in our spirits. We should never be moved away from the first love we have for him, and the embrace of grace that found us in our sin.

 

UNGODLINESS AND WORLDLINESS

There is safety in a multitude of counselors. I will train my leaders to be counselors, for the hour comes where the safety of the flock will depend upon them. The Lord is calling me to school so that I may be well trained in counseling. In my class, he is the instructor. He will draw from the wealth of experience that he has already given me. I will prepare to teach what I have learned to my leaders. Wisdom will be the principal thing. Some will become fools so that they may be wise. The eye of a good counselor is controlled by the mind of Christ and not by natural wisdom or assumed wisdom. Many who think they are wise are fools. I determine not to give into the temptation of fame. I remember, Jesus made of himself no reputation. If I seek a reputation, I will be lured into the path of worldliness. There is nothing but spiritual death that awaits all who journey down its paths; therefore, I will not go on a voyage where I know there is no return. The Lord has set before me death and life. I choose life; therefore, I choose not fame and reputation. The flesh is weak. I will not give that which is weak this dangerous advantage by exposing it to its only source of strength. When I am completely yielded to the spirit, the flesh has no power. The darkness has no power to prevail in the presence of the light.

I will go into God's presence and allow him to shine with the glory of his brightness and then shall my flesh become weak as the darkness in the presence of the light. Jesus is the Great Light. All other lights are only dim imitators of him, the True Light. I will not be seduced by false lights. They come as beautiful women. They are whores and sorcerers; therefore, I will not be deceived by their manifestations of seemingly good lights. These tempests are ministers, and they come as angels of light.

INSPIRATION

By Don Grigsby

 

RE: RHEMA - Polish Your Horns of Praise, Which Sound New Melodies That Announce Miracles

Shadows of the evening will not preclude the birth of the dawn. Tragedy will never erase the resurrection power of the promises of God. Stones will never block the path of the coming forth of the promise. Declarations of unbelief will never silence the announcements of the prophetic word. Time will never be able to stand up and stop the floods of eternity. Miracles are not coming on soft foot steps but with the percussion of the voice of thunder. Silence will never cover the mouth of the anointed ones. None can erase the sunrise or cancel redemption. Calvary has opened the door of the eternal womb of love. The symphony of the greatness of his power has begun to play, and we are invited to take part!

 

 

(Continued)

I have cut off the ungodly and given the wealth of the sinner to you. I prepared you a way and sent you to a place of refuge. In this house of refuge, you have life. Ponder not the mystery of this grace unto you, but simply believe. As I made a way for the lightning of the thunder, so has a decree been made for you. Grace has always been yours even in your times of serious inquiry. You have inquired of me and answered, "How can these things be?"

125. Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth?

126. Do you have understanding?

127. Who laid the measures thereof, if you know?

128. Or who has stretched the line upon it?

129. Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened?

130. Or who laid the corner stone, thereof, when the morning stars sang together and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

131. Or who shut up the sea with doors when it brake forth as if it had issued out of the womb?
