The Procession of Love Is Filled with Believers Adorned with Coats of Many Colors

My extreme kindness has greeted you today. This kindness is working in you to perform a more effectual work in you and through you. Go and minister in the same spirit that you have received this kindness. All over the earth, I am moving upon my people and bringing about a change in their hearts that will produce words and the spirit of their words, which reflect my nature. The reflection that is produced shall cause people to see you in a different light. The light of my countenance is upon you. Now go and minister grace to the hearers and abound toward every good work. Why be adorned with a coat of many colors and manifest only the grey colored lines of contradiction and hypocrisy?

I have given you a coat of many colors, which typifies the broad spectrum of my love. I am love. Is self-righteousness and pride part of my attributes?

Will you make self-righteousness and pride a part of the spectrum of love?

There is no darkness in me. No lie is of the truth; therefore, throw off these rags and clothes of darkness. Be adorned only in the clothes of light, and then will my wisdom, understanding, counsel, might, knowledge, and the fear of the Lord be demonstrated by you. Those who wear the coat of many colors should be bearers of love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, and temperance. How can you generate these attributes if you have not crucified the flesh with its affections and lusts?

In times past, you have desired vainglory and envied others. If you live in the Spirit, then walk in the Spirit. You are not a child of the darkness, but you are a child of the light. Now walk as a child of the light whose fruit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth. Do not have any fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness but rather reprove them.

I desire to see Christ magnified in you. You are in a strait between two. You have a desire to depart and to be with Christ. This is better; however, it is more needful for you to abide here in the flesh. While you abide here, there should be the furtherance and joy of faith so that your rejoicing may be truly abundant in Jesus Christ. Do not be terrified by your adversaries, but have a mind to suffer for my sake. If you suffer with me, you shall also reign with me; therefore, rejoice and parade your coat of many colors. The procession of love does not include a display of pride and self-righteousness; therefore, march with the strut of faith and humility. Refuse to wear the overcoat of sadness and bewilderment. Cast off these outer works of darkness and manifest the victory that your coat represents. You have overcome the world; therefore, come out of the convoy of losers. I have placed you in the band of winners. Rejoice.

"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."

Words of Light upon the Face of Adversaries, Affections, Bewilderment, Contradictions, the Flesh, Hypocrisy, Lust, Pride, Sadness, and Self-righteousness

God’s extreme kindness has greeted me today. This kindness is working in me to perform a more effectual work in me and through me. I will go and minister in the same spirit that I have received this kindness. All over the earth, God is moving upon his people and bringing about a change in their hearts that will produce words and the spirit of their words, which reflect his nature. The reflection that is produced shall cause people to see me in a different light. The light of the Lord’s countenance is upon me. Now I will go and minister grace to the hearers and abound toward every good work. It is fruitless to be adorned with a coat of many colors and manifest only the grey colored lines of contradiction and hypocrisy. The Lord has given me a coat of many colors, which typifies the broad spectrum of his love. God is love. Self-righteousness and pride are not part of his attributes. I cannot make self-righteousness and pride a part of the spectrum of love. There is no darkness in God. No lie is of the truth; therefore, I throw off these rags and clothes of darkness. I will be adorned only in the clothes of light, and then will I demonstrate his wisdom, understanding, counsel, might, knowledge, and the fear of the Lord. Those who wear the coat of many colors should be bearers of love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, and temperance. I cannot generate these attributes if I have not crucified the flesh with its affections and lusts.

Now I will walk as a child of the light whose fruit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth. I will not have any fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather I will reprove them.

RE: RHEMA – The Procession of Love Is Filled with Believers Adorned with Coats of Many Colors

Elijah's mantle fell on the shoulders of one who would do twice as many miracles as he did. It was not just a mantle of pure power. Notice how Elisha's miracles read. He causes the land to be productive and heals the water supply. He increases a widow's oil and meal. He raises the dead son of a disappointed mother. He heals the poison food of another gathering. He feeds one hundred hungry men and heals an enemy of leprosy. He recovers a borrowed ax head. He turns a famine into a feast and a siege into a victory for hurting people. His bones even heal a man dead of battle wounds. One thing in common is the great kindness to those in need. God will wrap his church in the clothing of healing and compassion in this hour. At the prison in the Wynne Unit on Monday night, I used to make a lot of phone calls for men who had family that had passed away over the weekend. Now we are seeing one man after another wanting prayer for physical healing and depression. David's tabernacle is being raised back up! What is it? It is a tent over the ark of the testimony (type of Rhema as an oracle.) with the mercy seat available for all! God spoke just a short word to me and said that just like in Psalms 68 when chariots of fire and angels were running up and down Sinai that he would bring chariots paved with love as is mentioned in the Song of Solomon and cause us to ride as Mordecai and Joseph did before the people in a mission of deliverance. We will be turned into rolling mercy seats of love and power in this last day!

By Moses Hightower

The spiritual breath of God has already come upon you. You are a creation that has never existed before. I created you to satisfy my purpose. My purpose has granted blessings for you and your seed. In choosing you, I have sought a godly seed. The godly seed that you have inherited is mine. Walk in my ways, and keep my commandments, statutes, and judgments. Your seed shall live and multiply. I will bless you, and you will possess the places where your feet walk. In my presence, the heavens are opened unto you. Though the words spoken are not profound things, the effect of the words spoken in your ears shall produce their fruit in your life. The words that have been placed in you are not hidden from you. They are not far away. They are not in heaven. They are not beyond the sea. The words are nigh you. They are in your mouth and in your heart so that you may do my commandments. Arise from this fellowship with a new hope and a new expression of holy boldness. The spiritual ability of the Father speaks and works in you.

RE: RHEMA – The Spirit of Grace and of Supplication Endows Us with Power to Withdraw from the Diversions of the Flesh and the Devil

Jesus declares that he stands at a closed door and knocks. He has come to us desiring to sup and fellowship with us. As we pray in the Spirit, we should listen for the directives and the delights that the Spirit will transfer into our lives. Many become depressed in their struggles and prayers because they have never found the delights and treasures of the power of God that are ours in the fellowship of the Spirit. Negative polarization of our spirit is the result of spiritual frustration. Spiritual frustration is the result of no intimacy with the Promise Keeper. He who keeps covenants is the companion who has already walked every dark valley and been through every rending storm for us. He comes to us with a cargo hold full of victory and joy. Diversions are the favorite tactic of the enemy. Whatever form they are in, they will cause us to eat the miserable menu of minuses. When we focus on the One who the diversion is over, we will be swept up in his arms beyond the reach of the icy arms of deathly experiences. We are not plastic puppets of the trivial. We are the powerful warriors of the end of the age.

Grace is the dynamic ability to do what the flesh could not do. The flesh is too weak to be able to do the will of God because it is part of the gravity center of self. Grace is the power center of the greatness and grandness of the goodness of God that led us to repentance. Not only does the grace of God lead us to Christ, it will establish us and keep us. Paul said that it was not him that was working but the grace that was with him. Hebrews 13:21 tells us that that same working will perfect or complete us in every good work. We are encouraged to seek first the kingdom of God. His kingdom is a kingdom of power and grace. When we prioritize our life, every piece will fit into place. We are a picture of mass confusion when we fail to put the Lord first in every thing. As we continue in prayer and daily seeking him, we will become part of an ever coming kingdom. We will be led in the paths of righteousness. In Hebrews 2:2, it talks about those who will not listen to the voice of the Spirit. They are called transgressors and disobedient. This has to do with stepping around truth and listening around until you hear what you want to hear. We must hear what the Spirit is saying to the churches. If we fail to hear the voice of the Spirit, then the candle of revelation is put out in our lives. Let us not become pawns of the enemy or of this earthly kingdom. We must seek his face and his ways and he will direct our paths.

The gospel cannot be propagated without prosperity. I am shortening the days, and knowledge is increasing at an alarming rate.

183. Why live as though you are in the Dark Age when transportation and knowledge has increased?

I have shed the love of God abroad in your heart by my Spirit.

184. Why are you finding it impossible to love like I loved?

I thank you today dear Lord for wrapping your church in the clothing of healing and compassion in this hour. Just as Elijah's mantle fell on the shoulders of one who would do twice as many miracles as he did, you have placed your Spirit inside of your believers and promised even greater works to be done through us. My faith is increased every time I hear of the many miracles you performed through Elisha. I truly believe that David's tabernacle is being raised back up as the tent over the ark of the testimony with the mercy seat available for all. It brings joy to my heart to hear of the breakthroughs taking place in the lives of those in need of healing and deliverance from depression. I rejoice with expectancy as you send forth chariots paved with love as is mentioned in the Song of Solomon and cause us to ride as Mordecai and Joseph did before the people in a mission of deliverance. Thank you for turning us into rolling mercy seats of love in this last day. You are truly worthy of all of our praise.

RE: PRAYER OF THANKSGIVING - July 29, 2007

Jesus asked those in his day to learn what it means to have mercy and not sacrifice. Does this mean that we would never sacrifice anything to God in our relationship with him? No! It does mean that mercy is better than any sacrifice that we would give to God, and love is greater than any spiritual gift. We certainly believe in every spiritual gift and their operation in our lives. Yet if we are not dynamically infused with love in all that we do, then we are accomplishing nothing. God sent out his invitation to the blind, the lame, and the halting. His feast of grace is for every hurting and broken person on the earth. Grace is more than an invitation to the feast of faith. It is the blessing and gift given even before people arise. We are to bless others with this marvelous deliverance that is in our lives, and God will then lead them though preaching and teaching into more truth in him. Shadows of mercy flowing from our lives need to fill the streets of violence with the victory of healing!
