Brokenness Is Given As a Reward to Those Who Have Fallen upon the Rock, Christ Jesus

Cry out to me for a pure heart, for only those with pure hearts will see me. Follow peace with all men and holiness, for without doing this, you will never see me. A pure heart, holiness, and peace with all men will guarantee that your eyes will see me in peace. You cannot imagine what it is like to see me in wrath; therefore, make your calling and election sure. Work out your salvation with fear and with trembling. I gave you a broken heart, a broken spirit, and a voice to call out to me. I will never turn away a broken heart and broken spirit. You have fallen on me, and brokenness is your reward. You will never be a powdered individual as long as you keep the attitude that you came to me with this morning. You have found grace in my sight. The gift of grace has been given to you. There is no greater reward than to receive grace in the sight of your Lord. Look unto me again this morning and see that I have kept my promise to you. I said that I would never leave you or forsake you. Your sins and your iniquities did not cause me to forsake you. I made provision for your sins to be forgiven. It is impossible for me to lie. Because I cannot lie, you can always trust me to keep my word. My word will not return to me empty or void; therefore, the words that I have given you should be cast upon the waters. You will find it later, and you shall be rewarded beyond measure. Continue giving portions to those that I tell you to give them to. Prosperity will arrive because you have expressed faith in me. Your sowing is not in vain. Look out upon the field where you have sown your seed. I am not mocked. What you have sown, you shall reap.

You are in a secret place. No lion, bear, or serpent can enter into this secret place. An angel with a flaming sword was placed at the entrance of the garden to prevent Adam and Eve from coming back to the garden; however, angels with flaming swords guard this secret place to keep all things of the darkness on the outside. Rejoice that I have allowed you to live in this secret place. Peace is your pillow and love is your bed. I have given you children that love you and abide here with you. Care for them and feed them the angels’ food daily. I have given you this bread. Now as a scribe of the last days, be faithful to your position and honor it, for it is one of the most blessed positions to sit in. You are a scribe of the Rhema word of God. I have exalted my word above my name. From this day forth, do not do anything that will bring reproach to my name and my word. Love caused me to give you this position. Now allow your love for me to cause you to sit here in humility, faithfulness, and honesty. These words have I spoken in your ears this day.

"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 Confusion, Fear, Impurity, Pride, Unbelief, and Unholiness

I will cry out to Jesus for a pure heart, for only those with pure hearts will see him. I will follow peace with all men and holiness, for without doing this, I will never see him. A pure heart, holiness, and peace with all men will guarantee that my eyes will see him in peace. I cannot imagine what it is like to see Jesus in wrath; therefore, I will make my calling and election sure. I will work out my salvation with fear and with trembling. God has given me a broken heart, a broken spirit, and a voice to call out to him. He will never turn away a broken heart and broken spirit. I have fallen on Jesus and brokenness is my reward. I will never be a powdered individual as long as I keep the attitude that I came to him with. I have found grace in his sight. The gift of grace has been given to me. There is no greater reward than to receive grace in the sight of my Lord.

I look unto Jesus again and see that he has kept his promise to me. He said that he would never leave me or forsake me. My sins and my iniquities did not cause him to forsake me. God made provision for my sins to be forgiven. It is impossible for him to lie. Because God cannot lie, I can always trust him to keep his word. The Lord’s word will not return to him empty or void; therefore, the words that he has given me should be cast upon the waters. I will find it later, and I shall be rewarded beyond measure.

RE: RHEMA - Brokenness Is Given As a Reward to Those Who Have Fallen upon the Rock, Christ Jesus

Purity of heart is defined in the original as sincerity of heart. The Apostle Peter and King David were men who made mistakes but were used by the Lord because they were sincere in heart above all else. A broken heart and contrite spirit are a gift and treasure that we must not underestimate. A broken heart is the vehicle of revival and the fertile field of holy and consecrated living. Grace washes the impurities from our spirits. God is able to mold us into the image that grace has reflected into his eyes. Grace will cause us to send portions to those whom the Lord will have mercy upon, and he will divide the blessing of prosperity with us. As we humbly seek his face, we will be endued with the anointing that brings prosperity and thanksgiving as one crown. He will fill the writers of his Rhema word with the spiritual ink of power and the treasure of those who are never forsaken or disappointed. God is faithful in all his dealings and will never forsake his promise and commitment to us.

By Moses Hightower

I will stretch forth my hand against the wrath of your enemies, and my right hand shall save you. I will perfect that which concerns me, so do not fear, neither be filled with dismay. My mercy endures forever; therefore, I will not forsake the works of my own hands. Continue in my goodness, and do not be weary. Due season is here, and you shall reap. Lift up your voice, and sing a new song. I have placed a gift within you. Lift up your voice, and speak faith unto the body of Christ. Go and say, "Your Redeemer lives. He lives within you and shows great strength unto the weak. He revives those who expect his grace to save them. He lifts the lowly from their pits of despair. Be lifted in your souls, for the Lord, your God, surely cares."

RE: RHEMA - Called from the Stage of Emotional Appeal to War with the Good Fight of Faith (Part 2)

All that we do is not for the praise and applause of men but for the glory and honor of our Beloved. We are so in love with him that it does not matter to us what the opinion of others may be. We are standing on the platform of forever. We will not reach back across the walls of existence to the audience of men to find our approval. Our focus is upon the One who has called us out of a world of corruption. Faith works by love. Our intense love for Jesus Christ will consume the false press clippings that the devil may pass around about us. Our approval was by grace before the foundation of the world. Israel was filled with an evil heart of unbelief in not hearing the voice of the Holy Ghost. We have seen the Promised Land and tasted of the powers of the world to come. Lot's wife will not be our example in turning back to the corrupt garbage heap of Sodom for our fulfillment. Enoch is our example of faith. We will walk with him and will be not of and in this world because we have been daily translated into God's awesome presence. Faith will not leave us at the mercy of pitfalls and failures but it will fight the good fight of faith on our behalf.

By Moses Hightower

(Continued)

Nature teaches you; however, the rivers in nature cannot adequately describe the full scope of my spiritual power. Do not regard the counterfeit images of unbelief that have confronted you. Their phony presentation of fear is only a sham. Their presentations are fictitious before the infinite power of my divine supply. I am living my life out through you. I am the greater.

233. Shall the lesser win against the greater?

Life is flowing in you. A river of life has been given to you; therefore, do not receive the dead things that are offered on the banks of life by your enemy. Sales representatives have already lined up this morning to pass out their wares.

234. Why receive worthless wares of death when you have been given precious gifts of life?

Thank you, Lord, for purifying my heart by calling me unto prayer. Mistakes have been made, yet you still used men because they were sincere in their heart. I give you praise for the broken and contrite heart which is a gift and a treasure. I purpose not to underestimate your mercy unto me. For a broken heart is the vehicle of revival and the fertile field of holy and consecrated living. I cherish your grace that washes the impurities from my spirit and I appreciate you because you are able to mold me into the image that grace has reflected into your eyes. Your grace causes me to send portions to those whom you will have mercy upon, and you will divide the blessing of prosperity with me. Your love for me prompts me to seek your face, my God and I will be endued with the anointing that brings prosperity and thanksgiving as one crown. I am delighted in knowing that you will fill the writers of your Rhema word with the spiritual ink of power and the treasure of those who are never forsaken or disappointed. Therefore, I am blessed because of your faithful dealings with me and you will never forsake your promise and commitment to me. For this, I give you praise.

RE: PRAYER OF THANKSGIVING - August 19, 2007

God is not turned off by our failures. Abraham was still the father of many nations even though he tried to help God out by another way. David sinned but God still shined his mercy on his life because of his sincerity. Our sincerity or the lack of it is the unlimited door of access for God to our lives. Faith purifies our hearts. Most of the time when God did miracles it was in the face of a void of expressed faith. Yet, when men and women saw what he did despite their lack of faith they were amazed. We stand amazed today at the marvelous flood of the blessing of God in our lives. His portion for us is not measured to us in proportion to the amount of our mistakes but according to his abundant mercy. God has given us a thankful heart to be the treasure that the Rhema word of God would flow out of. We truly have the treasures of the words of grace in our hearts. As we speak them in adoration of the One who gave them, we will be purified from the corruption that would try to destroy us.
