Upon this Rock: Words from God.

(2 Tim 3:16 KJV) All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: (2 Tim 3:17 KJV) That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.

(Mat 16:13 KJV)  When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?
(Mat 16:14 KJV)  And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets.
(Mat 16:15 KJV)  He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?
(Mat 16:16 KJV)  And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.
(Mat 16:17 KJV)  And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.
(Mat 16:18 KJV)  And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
(Mat 16:19 KJV)  And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

THE DISTINGUISHABLE PEOPLE  7-11-03

"For behold the day is coming, burning like a furnace; and all the arrogant
and every evildoer will be chaff; and the day that is coming will set them
ablaze, says the Lord of hosts, so that it will leave them neither root nor
branch. But for you who fear My Name the sun of righteousness will rise with
healing in its wings: and you will go forth and skip about like calves from
the stall. And you will tread down the wicked, for they shall be ashes under
the soles of your feet on the day  which I am preparing", says the Lord of
hosts"....
 

Malachi 4:1-3
 
 

 The "day" which is spoken of here in verse one has now arrived. And the
"burning" spoken of here refers to the great outpouring of the Holy Spirit
upon all flesh that is even now beginning to increase daily in the earth. In
these days, the Holy Spirit (the manifest presence of God) shall be poured
out through those children of God who "empty" themselves, and who thus
become "pure" vessels of holiness and truth - vehicles for the "righteous"
judgement of God upon His church (through no unrighteous motivation of their
own, but through the love of God which has been shed abroad in their heart).
As the Holy Spirit is poured forth upon all flesh in these days, "all the
arrogant and every evildoer" will be as chaff, and no longer shall any
"impure motivation" be found in the Church of Jesus Christ. Through this
extremely intense refining process of holy fire we shall once again be the
"distinguishable" people which we were called to be in the earth. Let there
be no mistake about the seriousness of this judgement, for indeed whoever is
not for God is against Him! Even at this very late hour many children of God
are still unaware of those things which are about to take place! Let each
one of us be found to be fighting against Satan and for God in this last
hour. Let us be conformed in every way to the deepest thoughts and
intentions of the Father's heart and forsake all "heart-fellowship" with the
world and its ways (Matthew 12:30) (James 4:4
 
 
 

Unparalleled Judgement 7-11-03

"Beware My beloved children, for there is a most dangerous and pervading
darkness encompassing all those whose allegiance remains with the "kingdom"
of the world. But truly I say to you, the "darker" it gets the greater the
contrast with the vessels of light which I shall send forth to every corner
of the earth; and indeed the nations shall see a great light and they shall
hear a mighty and resounding word of love and truth and they shall both see
and experience a mighty "consuming fire" in their midst for now is the time
of an "unparalleled" judgement upon all those who would call themselves
"Christian". And thus there shall be a swift and ever-widening gap between
those of my children who truly love Me and those who do not. And indeed
every man, woman and child's "allegiance" shall become evident in the midst
of this raging fire, and there shall be nothing hidden and every motive of
the heart shall be disclosed and laid bare before Me - and before all
men"....
 
 
 

Endlessly Moving My Children From Faith To Faith 7-11-03

"Because of the magnitude of the work that I have called My handmaidens and
bondservants to in this last hour, they must experience a "fresh"
application of discipline (pressure). For their "former capacity" for My
power is not sufficient to meet the need of the present situation and their
"past" experiences are inadequate to supply the current demand. This is
precisely why I deal and work with My children endlessly to move them from
faith to faith: in order that each one might gain a greater capacity for My
power and in order that the multitudes might experience the "resurrected"
Christ in them and thus come to see the power that is able to deliver them
from death - and which is stronger than any circumstance they might find
themselves in."
 
 
 

The Wheat And The Tares 7-11-03

          The activity of the spirit of lawlessness is increasing in this
hour and all those who maintain ANY element of agreement with the lies of
Satan - and therefore unrighteous motivation towards the Father and His
Word - will be drawn to that which has its origin in rebellion against God
and, thus, not only will they set themselves in agreement with false
doctrine, they will also be used by the Evil One to "radically" promote it!
On the other hand - as the Holy Spirit (the Spirit of Love) is being poured
forth then those whose heart-desire is in any way towards God shall be drawn
by the Holy Spirit to those places (environments) and those people who are
putting forth true doctrine - doctrine that has been established in the very
Throne Room of God, and the Father shall use them in whatever way He so
desires - sending them into the fields of harvest to represent Him,
gloriously!
 
 
 
 

Abiding In Revelation Knowledge 7-9-03

In these days we must become a people who are "abiding" in revealed
knowledge. Abiding in revelation knowledge is a catalyst to the many areas
of sanctification: the renewing of the mind unto an abiding in the mind of
Christ; the spontaneous empowerment and manifestation of bringing EVERY
thought captive to that revealed knowledge; and the power to abide (flow) in
a perfect obedience. We are a blessed generation - and to whom much is given
much is required! In the remaining days in this dispensation each and every
member of the Body of Christ will be held accountable (responsible) before
the Father for all of the revelation knowledge that has entered into the
earth since the Church was born at Pentecost. In other words we will need to
be a people who have truly entered into the "fulness" of our glorious
inheritance in Christ.

-- 
"I am calling you to make the revisions, says the Lord. You have pondered
the path of mediocrity and now it is time to move. Sometimes the recasting
will cause a shaking and a falling away. Be prepared for this, says the
Lord, but move forward. This is a time for extreme sensitivity to My Voice
and My Spirit and to move with intensity. The empowerment that is coming is
nothing less than supernatural. Stay humble before Me for I am lifting you
higher and higher into My purposes and plans for thee. Therefore, you must
seek to please only Me and move only after you have saturated yourself in My
Presence," says the Lord. "
 
 
 
 

The Only Other Alternative 7-9-03

We are called as faithful seekers of God's will and kingdom that we might
be found walking in ALL of the light that we have - both individually and
corporately - in any given moment. It is certain that we should be gaining
more light (revelation knowledge) with each passing day. The only other
alternative to divine light - that is, the revelation knowledge of the
Father's will - is darkness! This is precisely why there is an ever widening
gap and separation in the midst of God's people between those who are truly
seeking to do or say nothing apart from Christ - the Anointed One and His
Anointing - and those who have both affixed themselves to and maintained an
element of darkness - a darkness which is the direct fruit of self-desire
(pride and fear).
 

-- 
For one who is truly abiding in a constant position of faith (which of
course works - or is empowered - by love) they shall always have a divine
"knowing" and divine assurance deep within them that - in spite of what is
going on "outwardly" - they are in the center of the Father's will.
Ultimately, this "knowing" (revelation) is the very thing that will see
those "seeking first the Kingdom" - and thus the fulness of the Father's
purpose for their life and ministry - be successful in every last aspect of
their spiritual endeavours.
 
 
 
 
 
 

A Most Dangerous Thing 7-9-03

We, as Christians, are either going to be righteously motivated or
unrighteously motivated in ALL that we say or do. There are no other sources
of motivation! The whole basis of Satan's scheme against the Christian who
is truly seeking first the Kingdom (truly seeking the fulness of the
Father's will for their life and ministry) is to somehow keep them out of
their proper "Kingdom-positioning" in Christ. He has an intense desire to
keep the child of God in the wrong place at the wrong time - doing the wrong
thing. In other words, a place wherein they are "maintaining" unrighteous
motivation - for then he still has "control" over them and, thus, is
"enabled" to carry out his schemes against the true works of God through
them. This state of unrighteous motivation also keeps the child of God in
perpetual ignorance concerning Satan's schemes - both where they are
concerned personally and also concerning the corporate church. It is a most
dangerous thing for a child of God to be found serving Satan and not even be
aware of it (2 Timothy 2:19-26)! Ultimately, without a deep and thorough
repentance - the one that continues to align themselves with the lies of the
Evil One, shall "perish" (expire, ebb, fade, wane) in the days ahead!

--

Preferring To Remain In Control 7-9-03

In this last hour EVERY Christian MUST be strengthened with great power in
their inner man - in order that they might be found to be rooted and
grounded in the love of God. If our EVERY motivation is not rooted and
grounded in "godly desire" then we are not going to be able to comprehend
either the magnificence or the magnitude of the Father's glorious plan for
the Church. God is love and He CANNOT be comprehended - in any way - apart
from love! There are many who "think" that they comprehend God's plan - but
they do not!

Quite simply, the love of God is not abiding in their heart and, therefore,
they are blinded by the spirits of darkness that prey upon every remaining
ground of self-desire and pride - ground which has remained solely because
one has refused to enter into perfect fellowship and relationship with the
Father - on His terms. In preferring to remain in control of their own lives
they have been - and shall continue to be - used by the Evil One to carry
out his schemes against those who are truly serving God. This "fellowship"
with darkness is precisely why there are so many different and varying false
doctrines in the church at large. This ought not be! And with a view to
these things the Father is about to unleash a holy fire that will both
expose and consume ALL that is unrighteously motivated.
-- 
"The promised winds of change are beginning to blow. You will soon see the
evidence of this wind in your lives. This wind is My tool to move you into
your positions of destiny for this coming time. I will remove some of the
old, bring in some of the new, and adjust that which is to remain - for your
maximum benefit and effectiveness in My Kingdom. This wind may prove to be a
bit unnerving as you are moved out of what you consider comfortable.
However, if you will place your full confidence in Me, the season of
transition will be shortened. The key is to move with My wind. If you try to
do this work in the flesh, you will find yourself on the wrong path and in
the wrong wind. Prepare for My wind... it's beginning to blow!"
 
 
 
 

There Is A Fire On Yonder Shore ( Prophetic) 7-9-03

"I am no longer sleeping in the boat. I am rowing both of the oars with full
strength. My motive force is the spirit of faith and I am the author of it.
White capped waves are my delight and there is no challenge in mounting them
as I row the boat of your life across the storms which you face. The boat of
your life is the boat of My faith, and it leaves a tremendous wake in tow
everywhere you pass. The wake of the waves which emanate outwards from the
stern and from the prow of this boat are more than enough to overcome the
worldly waves of your passing storms.

The shores are not afar off, and I am the power in the arm of your flesh as
you are impelled by My Spirit to go forward. Give due diligence to all I
have commanded you to be and to do, and I will uphold you in it. There is a
fire on yonder shore and I am
preparing a meal of fishes there and the nets, when let down will draw a
great draught of fishes. These fishes are those whom you draw into the boat
of faith to be with you in the crossing of the stormy sea as they are reeled
in by the power of My word in conjunction with the anointing of My Spirit.
The two go hand in hand, for My word is Spirit and it is life, but only when
moved upon over the face of the deep by the Spirit which I breathe into it.
Continually apply the force of faith to the projects and endeavors which I
give you and they shall wear the harness and the yoke of my superior
abilities and they shall not see you disappointed in the hours of trial.
 

All this I have spoken as a word in season, for many desire to climb out of
the boat and walk on the water, but I have provided a boat, and it is meant
to sail in. And lo, I have given you all them that sail with you! Call them
out by faith and claim the salvation of the souls of your inner circle, and
of the farthest reaches of your acquaintance and I will wrestle them in
their beds to secure the change of heart which is meet for My righteous
cause of salvation to be wrought in them! I have spoken this from My throne,
and I am able to perform all that I have said. I am in the bush which burns
and is not consumed. Take your shoes from off your feet, for you have
entered upon holy ground. I call each and every one of you to be all that
Moses was. He lived in the backside of the desert for forty years and when
the time was full, I placed it in him to do as I commanded, and I do thusly
with you for you are each called to lead My people from captivity."
 
 
 
 

Someone Needs To Know Forgiveness Is More Than A Word, It Is Very God Character 7-9-03

Here is a wrong perception of A Blood Bought Saint!! The Lord has given me
the instruction to promulgate this that someone out there will know His
forgiveness for the first time ever!!!

"That is what I am afraid of. I guess I am back to square one. I don't want
to go to hell. I have always worried about it because of my life of  being
wild at one time. I was sweet and innocent until my first husband  raped me
and I married him trying to still be a good girl at the age of 18  and then
after the loss of my baby I went wild until I was thirty and then  now I am
no good either. I have a carnal side with my mouth too so don't  worry.
Other than that I don't really do anything wrong. But the "choice"  words
are there and I am not proud of it. I don't need to try to teach others
right when I am so wrong. I don't need their blood on my hands. I   guess I
will be like some of the others think and this woman will keep  silent in
the church and pray alone. You are such a good friend and I  treasure you.
Since I can't hug you and tell you I love you my friend then  you do it to
your wife for me and tell her I said thanks for being sweet  enough to not
mind you being my friend.  Love you in the Lord"

The ministry to a sorrowful heart:

Now there you go, making yourself so important that even the blood of Christ
isn't good enough to cleanse your sins! All that
was before you got saved, my dear! Please understand, God cries when people
unwittingly place themselves in the
position you are in! He is the name above every name! His works are
complete! He can and has already saved you!
Saying anything less or anything else is actually saying He isn't able to do
what He said He has done! This is in ignorance on
our part, and we need to truly see the sin that it is! This is the thing of
which we need to repent more than any other!

I hear the lamentations of a dying self, ***not ***the death throws of a
hell bound spirit! Be at peace!!

You are now saying also that you have retained a few secret faults which
have you weighted down. Of a truth, the Lord
would have these cleared up in humble obedience, but he knows we are flesh!
He paid so you don't have to!

The blood of Christ takes away sin, the cross takes away self. Come to the
cross, and die there with Jesus. Just say, Lord I
give you my ALL and mean it! Your flesh will hate the work as it is being
done, for it will be a death for it!

The devil has somehow managed to put you back under the blanket of
condemnation! That is always demonic! Conviction
on a specific sin is God, gently in your heart of hearts, prodding you in
the conscience to admit it and quit it! You "aren't good  enough" is the
line I hear from you, so how could you be saved? That is demonic! (The
thought, not you!!)

God takes you where you are, and works with you where you are, one step at a
time. If where you are right now includes an
ability to cut loose once in a while with a vocabulary less than Godly, well
He is working. You know the problem is there.
You feel bad about it. God is working. You do not make it a lifestyle, I am
sure, like worldly people do!

A little secret! For all the inner awareness, and sanctity of spirit which I
purvey on posts both private, and public, I also have my
limiting burdens! It is not a lifestyle, but when fear/anger rise up I am
able to slip! I thought sin was a dead  work from my Spirit filled living
birth, but, no, it is in there! Once again, not a lifestyle, but a reaction
in stress! I have been  being attacked and God has been showing me my secret
faults and presumptuous sins. I call my self "fervent" because that is  what
I am! I mean it before God! I have rediscovered Adam in me, not quite the
hope of glory! I know the word well  enough to know God is working! He is in
the forgiving and reconcilliation business and we/you are the brunt of His
endeavor  to usward who believe! He never gives up on us! If He were as
fickle as we are, it would be over, but bless God for His  longsuffering
which leads us to repentance! Once again, you/I are like green fruit on a
tree! Not perfectly ripe, but perfect at  the stage of development we have
reached! God's creations never have a time of imperfection! You have to
believe  this! Please reach out afresh this morning to your wonderful
Saviour and throw yourself in wild abandon upon Him!

Psalm 59:

16. But I will sing of thy power; yea, I will sing aloud of thy mercy in the
morning: for thou hast been my defense and refuge
in the day of my trouble.
17. Unto thee, O my strength, will I sing: for God is my defense, and the
God of my mercy.

Lamentations 3:

22. It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed, because his
compassions fail not.
23. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.
24. The Lord is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.
25. The Lord is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh
him.
26. It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the
salvation of the Lord.

The Lord has spoken in my inner man to place the brunt of this word on the
NG for the lost, alone, forsaken and defiled
to read it.

Every time I get down about the NG, the Lord brings me to the fountain of
living waters for a drink! In my own weakness, and need for ministry, the
Lord shows me that I am called to minister life to those who need it! Then,
also in  strength He exhorts me with all sound doctrine, He comes! I myself
am  at once a vessel of honour, and a vessel of mercy, full of the blessing
and the chastisement of God  as He blesses  and tests in one smooth action!
I see a heart in you that is entirely convicted to desire to be obedient.
Do not despair! He is with you and will not forsake you!

Here is a word on "Forgiveness" The Lord gave me when I had sinned one time
AFTER BEING SAVED !

FORGIVENESS IS FREELY OFFERED!

My purpose will be fulfilled in you! I have not left you alone. My
comforter, the Spirit of truth, dwells in you. Testing is an evident token
of My working in you. There is no remorse, regret or unforgiveness in My
word. Only be of a broken heart and a contrite spirit, for I draw nigh to
such a one. My forgiveness is freely offered. Your life is not wasted or
lost. Persons who hunger and thirst after righteousness may occasion to
stumble, but though he fall he will not utterly be cast down. Wear the
armour and wield the sword of the Spirit. Plead My blood which was shed for
you. The word, the blood and My name are a three fold cord which cannot be
broken. These bind the enemy of righteousness to make him quit of his
accusations. There is a false accusation and there is a real guilt of sin,
but I forgive those who diligently seek Me. Do not fall into self pity or
guilt, but press toward the mark. Run the race which is set before you and
lay aside every weight and sin that doth so easily beset you. Remember the
woman taken in adultery. She was guilty, but so were her accusers. As I
said to her, I say to all:"Neither do I condemn thee: Go thy way and sin no
more". You are an heir of God and I call you a pleasant child, for you have
a heart to do My will. I do not speak desolations into your life, but I do
speak My joy and peace. I love you and I care for you as a mother hen cares
for her chicks. Now go out and live for Me, My child. Be of good comfort
for I have you engraved in the palm of My hand! Love JESUS

There is no remorse, regret or unforgiveness in My
word. Check this out in the KJV! Those words are not even in the bible!!)

be to you better than
a light and safer than a known way." King George VI
 
 
 
 
 

Shall Not The Judge Of All The earth Do Right? 7-8-03

"My people, I am fervent toward you in all wisdom and applied knowledge.
Gather unto Me all ye who seek to know My will, and I will show you plainly
what has been ordained of old, even from before the presence of man on the
earth.  Go ye forth of Babylon, flee ye from the Chaldeans, with a voice of
singing. Declare ye, tell this, utter it even to the end of the earth; say
ye, The Lord hath redeemed his servant Jacob.

Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I
am God, and there is none like me, Declaring the end from the beginning, and
from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel
shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure: Calling a ravenous bird from the
east, the man that executeth my counsel from a far country: yea, I have
spoken it, I will also bring it to pass; I have purposed it, I will also do
it.  Hearken unto me, ye stouthearted, that are far from righteousness: I
bring near my righteousness; it shall not be far off, and my salvation shall
not tarry: and I will place salvation in Zion for Israel my glory. I and My
Father are one in all ighteousness, in all truth and in all uniformity of
unclouded vision.

Many of you do ask and question and many do philosophize away the righteous
act of My will to set forth the foundations of knowledge as especting end
time events and the catching away of a remnant of My eople.  Behold, I show
you a mystery which is louvred to the hearing ear rom the days of righteous
Lot.  My presence and My angels which came  before Abraham in the plain of
destruction was ordained that I might prove My faithfulness throughout many
generations.  When Abraham pled the welfare of the righteous that I might
not destroy the City because of them, I was willing to apply the mercies of
My namesake unto them; for he stood in the gap for them, even as I am now
calling you to stand in the gap for your generation. He pled with Me even
unto the ten, and asked Me to forbear, even for so few that I might not
spoil the righteous with the wicked, and for the sake of such as these.

And I, the Lord said, Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorra is great, and
because their sin is very grievous; I will go down now, and see whether they
have done altogether according to the cry of it, which is come unto me; and
if not, I will know. And the men turned their faces from thence, and went
toward Sodom: but Abraham stood yet before Me, the Lord. And Abraham drew
near, and said, Wilt thou also destroy the righteous with the wicked?
Peradventure there be fifty righteous within the city: wilt thou also
destroy and not spare the place for the fifty righteous that are therein?
That be far from thee to do after this manner, to slay the righteous with
the wicked: and that the righteous should be as the wicked, that be far from
thee: shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?

 And I, the Lord said, If I find in Sodom fifty righteous within the city,
then I will spare all the place for their sakes. And Abraham answered and
said, Behold now, I have taken upon me to speak unto the Lord, which am but
dust and ashes:  Peradventure there shall lack five of the fifty righteous:
wilt thou destroy all the city for lack of five? And I said, If I find there
forty and five, I will not destroy it. And he spake unto Me yet again, and
said, Peradventure there shall be forty found there. And I said, I will not
do it for forty's sake. And he said unto Me, Oh let not the Lord be angry,
and I will speak: Peradventure there shall thirty be found there.

 And I said, I will not do it, if I find thirty there. And he said, Behold
now, I have taken upon me to speak unto the Lord: Peradventure there shall
be twenty found there. And I said, I will not destroy it for twenty's sake.
And he said, Oh let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak yet but this
once: Peradventure ten shall be found there. And I said, I will not destroy
it for ten's sake. And I, the Lord went My way, as soon as I had left
communing with Abraham: and Abraham returned unto his place.

My angels walked in My will to the door of Lot and were desired by the city
evildoers to be cast into their hands. And the men said unto Lot, Hast thou
here any besides? son in law, and thy sons, and thy daughters, and
whatsoever thou hast in the city, bring them out of this place: For we will
destroy this place, because the cry of them is waxen great before the face
of the Lord; and the Lord hath sent us to destroy it.

And Lot went out, and spake unto his sons in law, which married his
daughters, and said, Up, get you out of this place; for the Lord will
destroy this city. But he seemed as one that mocked unto his sons in law.
And when the morning arose, then the angels hastened Lot, saying, Arise,
take thy wife, and thy two daughters, which are here; lest thou be consumed
in the iniquity of the city. And while he lingered, the men laid hold upon
his hand, and upon the hand of his wife, and upon the hand of his two
daughters; the Lord being merciful unto him:  and they brought him forth,
and set him without the city. And it came to pass, when they had brought
them forth abroad, that he said, Escape for thy life; look not behind thee,
neither stay thou in all theplain; escape to the mountain, lest thou be
consumed.

And Lot said unto them, Oh, not so, my Lord: Behold now, thy servant hath
found grace in thy sight, and thou hast magnified thy mercy, which thou hast
shewed unto me in saving my life; and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest
some evil take me, and I die: Behold now, this city is near to flee unto,
and it is a little one: Oh, let me escape thither, (is it not a little one?)
and my soul shall live.  And he said unto him, See, I have accepted thee
concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow this city, for the
which thou hast spoken. Haste thee, escape thither; for I cannot do any
thing till thou be come thither. Therefore the name of the city was called
Zoar.

Even as I ordained My angels to withhold judgment from Sodom and Gomorra
until the righteous were called forth, so shall it be in the soon coming day
of My glory, when thou shalt come up hither. I did not suffer the righteous
to perish in that tribulation, and so it shall be in the great tribulation
to come also. I am not a man that I should lie, neither shall I tarry. The
good pleasure of My will is that none of mine shall perish nor stand in the
way of harm when I reconcile all things unto Myself. Be it far from Me to
destroy the righteous with the wicked, or to visit the destruction of the
wicked upon My elect.  Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right? So I
have spoken, so shall it be, amen."
 
 
 
 

Peeking Around Corners 7-8-03

It is futile for My children to attempt to walk in faith by the power of the
flesh, for faith comes by hearing and hearing by My Word; indeed all things
come into being and are upheld by the power of My Word! Therefore, it is of
the greatest importance for My children to discern the difference between
fleshly striving and standing fast on My Word.   It is an "unwholesome"
faith that attempts to "peek around corners" - always with a certain amount
of reliance upon the five physical senses - apart from My Word. Therefore, a
"wholesome" or perfect (absolute) faith is one which keeps its eyes fixed
firmly on My Word. Did I not say to My children, "Keep your eyes fixed
firmly (focused) on (My Word) Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith? And
is it not also written that the Word became flesh, and again that the Word
was God?
 
 

A Great "Confrontation" 7-8-03

Truly I say to you, in this last hour the true "heart-position" of "every"
last child of Mine shall be revealed and exposed for all to see. Once again
one shall be able to distinguish between the one who "truly" loves Me and
the one who does not and the one who "truly" serves Me and the one who does
not. And thus, there shall be a great "confrontation" between those of My
children "completely given" to abiding in love and those of My children
who - through their "refusal" to draw near to My Word - "maintain" a certain
ground of pride and arrogance and rebellion towards "Me". This is not a
confrontation between "flesh and blood", but rather this is a "spiritual"
warfare and battle of great significance! For on the one side My remnant of
holy ones shall continually manifest a perfect love "towards" those of their
brothers and sisters who are used by the Evil One to come against them. And
thus, they shall "obliterate" and "devastate" the vast majority of the
strongholds that Satan has been "allowed" to build in the "sons of
disobedience". And thus, the "vast majority" of those who "had" been in
rebellion against Me shall repent and they shall "mesh" with My glorious
remnant so swiftly and smoothly that it shall seem as if they had never been
apart!

Again I say to you, the aforementioned "confrontation" is in no way a
confrontation between "flesh and blood"! In reality, it is the "final" and
"greatest" confrontation in the church age between the Holy Spirit and the
"spirit of anti-Christ"! The end result of this confrontation shall be that
Satan and his forces are both devastated and "driven out" from the midst of
all those of My children who truly love Me and in the final days of the
presence of My glorious Church in the earth there shall be "nothing" in
their midst to "hinder" the outworking of the final stages of My Plan to
spread the "absolute truths" of the Gospel of the Kingdom throughout the
earth - and in a short time the "final" stages of My Plan for this
dispensation shall be completed and I shall catch away My faithful ones in
that perfect moment!"....
 
 


 

 But feast upon these things 7-7-03

"My Children, Do not hearken unto those that have confident pleasure in
saying, "Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell
asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the
creation." They would tell you that everything is going to be fine, and they
will try to lull you to sleep! Like a Pied Piper they will come and desire
to lull you to sleep! But do not be caught sleeping! Be sober and be
vigilant and stir up the gifts I have planted within you! Light your lamps
and ensure that the wicks are trimmed and cleanly burning! The spirit of man
is the candle of the Lord! My candle must blaze Within you! Do not be as the
foolish virgins, having no oil! Redeem the time for the days are evil! For
your Lord cometh! I shall come in great power, and I shall come in great
glory! The day is short and the hour is late, My people!

I am preparing My bride! I am getting My church ready! Its time to wash your
garments. Its time to cleanse and to purify your heart. If a man therefore
purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and
meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work. It is time to
cleanse your heart of double mindedness! It is time to remove sin far from
you! My fan is in My hand, and I will thoroughly purge My floor, and gather
My wheat into the garner; but I will burn up the chaff with unquenchable
fire.

Who shall ascend to My holy hill? He that hath clean hands and a pure heart.
Cleanse Your life. Lay aside every weight and every sin that doth so easily
beset you! Be ready, for  no man knows the exact hour his Lord cometh!

Do not be swayed by the things that shall happen in the earth. Nation shall
continue to rise up against nation and there shall be wars and rumours of
wars, and violence on every hand. The seas shall roar with perplexity and
Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which
are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall  be shaken.
 

But the powers of hell shall be open to plain view for every discerning
believer! But do not let that sway you, for this is not your kingdom! Your
kingdom is not of this world!

All of this must surely be, in order that the kingdoms of this world shall
all pass away! For your kingdom is not of the earth; yours is the kingdom
that shall not pass away. Yours is a new kingdom, a new heaven, and a new
earth. For you have been bought with a price. You are not your own, but you
are Mine saith the Lord. And I AM a jealous God! I have redeemed you from
among men as first fruits unto God! And in your mouth shall be found no
guile: for you are without fault before the throne of God.  For everything
that you see shall come to nothing and be brought to naught. But, the
Glories of heaven beyond shall be made manifest on that day. It shall be
made manifest as a kingdom that shall not pass away, a kingdom that shall
live on forever, and forever.  Make sure that you do not strive to have your
name on the roll call of men, but rather strive to have your name written in
the Lambs Book of Life. For on that day it shall be declared that those
names that are not found in the Lamb's Book of Life, those not found
therein shall be thrown in the lake of fire.

This is also the day when the power and the glory of God will be made
manifest in the church in ways that have not as yet been seen. This is the
day when the true ministry of the apostles shall come forth. This is the day
when the true prophets shall stand and boldly declare. This is the day when
there shall come an increase in the anointing upon the Servants that I have
emplaced. And men shall fear when they walk into My gatherings, for the
awesome, glorious presence of Almighty God shall be unto you as a light to
the gentiles! Arise! Shine! For thy light hath come and the glory of the
lord has risen upon thee!

The nine gifts of the Spirit shall be evident in full power and authority,
and men shall not walk in title only, but shall come in sign and in wonder
with quick words and mighty Deeds. And you shall submit; you shall get in
the flow. Because when you see My glory, you shall hear a word behind you
saying, "This is the way walk ye in it!" No one shall need to convince you
of it, for it shall be a witness within your heart, and you shall say, "Yes,
this is the Lord! He is made manifest among us!" And the voice of wolves
shall grow dim. The voice of strangers My sheep shall not follow, but they
shall follow the voice of the Good Shepherd in this day and this hour.

Open your heart. Hearken! Listen to what The Spirit is saying! Listen to
what the Holy Ghost is saying! Listen to what the Spirit of God says in this
day and hour! I have yet many things to say unto you but you cannot bear
them now. You could not possibly hope to assimilate all of that which I have
given to you in this single moment of time.
 

For even that which has been shared already is beyond the comprehension of
some, even to understand that which I am doing in this day and this hour. I
will shake the easy believers from their pews of religiosity and I shall
cause them to stumble in lack of preparedness and the sins of many shall be
as though they were shouted from the roof tops, saith the Lord. But feast
upon these things. Meditate upon these things and as you spend more time in
My Spirit, I shall unveil and reveal more and more things unto you."
 
 

Even so amen!
 
 

Harbinger Of Sorrow (By the Spirit ) 7-6-03

My Children of glory, It is to be with joy and not with sorrow that you come
into the presence of your God. For many of you look on the outward thing,
and your eye and your spirit and soul are downcast. For those things that
you've been seeing and that have concerned you, have also concerned Him who
has created you. For I have put My Spirit within you, says the Lord, and My
Spirit will always be the indication  of My will in which you may solidly
trust.  It is by My Spirit that you know me. For you will cry out many
times, "Lord, look at this. Do you see that?" And I tell you, He who has
made the universe is still in charge of the universe and knoweth all things.

Yes, the things that are permitted to continue until this day, are signs of
the day in which you live. For it is an hour of expectation in the church,
but an hour of terror for those who live in the world and unto themselves.
For they, too, see the inevitable approaching. And I tell you, that if a man
is not in the center of My will, surely in the days that lie ahead, he will
fall and tremble and know there is a God that he has rejected.

For you stand at the verge of a year of great change. And you who look to
the things of the politics of man, forget that it is the Lord who gives
government. Is not the government upon My shoulders? Have I not been He who
directs  the nations? Am I not King of Kings and Lord of Lords, to the glory
of God the Father? And yet you continue to look at the outward appearance of
politics.

My church has become involved in the politics of man, and in using the
pressures of man in order to get what seems good unto them. See that you do
not kick against the goads of My will. See that you do not go about doing a
good thing as it seems right in your mind, only to find that you have
contested that Lord of Glory. For the politics of this world will pass away.
Yes, the heart of the king is in the hand of your God.   And therefore, as
you have prayed and many have begun to faint and forget, then I tell you
that there shall be a removal. For the one that you long most to see in
government will not be there. But there will be one raised up and it will be
allowed by your God. For a nation that must be judged will receive a leader
that it deserves -- one instructed by humanism and of the mind, and of the
counsels of men, but diabolical deep within. I tell you, that great calamity
will befall the earth and even in this year, the changes will begin to take
place. A proceeding into that period that many have shuddered to think of. A
period of knowing that it is God who cares for you, who directs you, who
will keep you -- those who are called His and have won. But for those who
are not of Me, the circumstances of the world will cause a turning unto Him
that  loves you. All the things that you would attempt to do in an outward
fashion, I will do by striking fear into the hearts of men. And it will be
by fear that many will turn to the Lord thy God.

So do not be disheartened with the outcome, with the things that seem right
unto you in the elections of men, but be prepared for a great change to
come. Be prepared to know that where ever and when ever I hear your prayer,
I rule over all. But  some of you ask amiss even in your prayers. And you
pray not the will of your Lord. It is a time that you turn inward, and  hear
My voice. It is a time that you must pray according to My will, and when you
know not how to pray in the natural, then the Holy Spirit, with groanings,
will begin to birth within you a prayer that My will be done in all of the
earth.

For everything is on schedule, as it is in the natural world, and the
enemies of this which nation have already concerted themselves and they plan
a day. They are moving toward an hour in which they would be in control. In
the spirit, your God has prepared things, things that eye hath longed to
look into, ears have longed to hear. But they are terrible unto him who has
not received the Lord of glory. Yes, there are things that are being planned
in the council of heaven. My will is about to be executed in the earth. For
judgment has begun at the household of God, and you, as My children, have
been a part of that judging. I do not judge you unto wrath, for by the blood
of the Lamb has there been a cleansing -- not just a covering over, but a
cleansing to the core.

And many who have rejected My Spirit, have already decided within themselves
that they will do a good thing unto their God. And they turn outwardly and
use the outer expression of what their will would direct them to do.  But
those who are led of my Spirit, who shall be called sons of God, these who
hear My voice they shall turn within and, with trembling, know that judgment
must come.  Yes, judgment has begun already, even over a nation -- a nation
that will not repent, a people who are called by My Name, who pray
occasionally and weakly, a people who must, by outward circumstances, be
convinced that their God rules over every situation, however difficult that
might be.

While you are in the world, there will be tribulation.  But fear not, I have
overcome the world. And by that suffering that led to obedience, the Son has
come to a place of pre eminence in the Father. And know this, that as the
firstfruits of many sons to come forth, I am calling a people that they
might be one, that they might know that the things that are happening to the
right and to the left of them are allowed for the purpose of drawing many
into the net. For I will send you out as fishers of men, and I will drive
them into the nets that there will be a great harvest. Yes, judgment and
calamity and difficult days, but beyond this, glory for those who will hear
and who, not of themselves, but because of My will, are called. These are
they that  should be added unto Me. I will call out, for I have foreknown
them, and I have allowed the circumstances that will come.

You say, "But Lord, will you not spare us?" And I say, it is appointed to
some of you to die. For indeed, war will come, and so it must be to fulfill
all righteousness.   You must be prepared in the word to fulfill all
righteousness and all justice must be brought to its fullest completion, for
I have told you there would be wars and rumors of wars. See in this year
that lies ahead that which will begin as a war that will develop into a
major war. But it is only a beginning. It is only that which is starting
now. For already men have laid their plans. Already war counsels have been
made against you. But fear not, I have overridden their plan. And, there is
a way that I will bring you through, and it will cause persecution upon My
church, and for many, that is necessary. For they must needs be persecuted
for righteousness' sake, in order to be tested as vessels of glory.

Hear then the word that stirs mightily, for I have called you to be a
people, and yet you have continued to run to and fro with religious games.
Yes, the world has piped and played a song and you have danced, but it has
not been your God and your Saviour that you have danced unto. But you have
danced unto the tune of religion. I say, come unto Me with all of your
heart. Rend your heart, not your garments. Be real before the Lord your God.
For the doctrines that have come into My church are seducing spirits of
demons and they have led many astray to seek the god of materialism, many to
call unto themselves their own power, and build their own ministry -- those
whom I have not sent, and yet who use My name. I tell you that when they
stand before Me, though they have cast out devils, though the sick have been
healed, I will not receive them, for I have not known them.

You say, "Lord, in the church?" And I say yes, in that which you call the
church., But I tell you, the church are the called out ones unto Me, whose
whole heart is given with singular purpose -- those who are instructed by
the counsel of My will to know what it is to believe, who know that faith
comes by the hearing of the word, and that hearing of the word is within
you.

Again I counsel you, do not listen to the outward beckoning of men, for
another gospel  is being preached, but hear the counsel of My word, that
which is written on your hearts. Hear the counsel of My spirit that directs
you to understand the written word, and to hear the word afresh that comes
even by My Spirit to teach you all things, to counsel you, to comfort you,
to strengthen you, to be within you your strength.

And many of My people are cast down because their eyes have seen the outward
and they have believed a lie. That which I have not sent, I will not bless,
and I will begin to tear down the kingdoms of men even anew and afresh. For,
yes,  judgment has begun and some have been removed, and there will now be
in the church the judgment upon all. Not just its leaders, but all who have
chosen to follow the seducing spirits of doctrines. For I will give them
over unto their own ways -- their ways will grow more and more in flesh.
Immoralities will begin to arise among them, and there will be those even of
the world who will know they are not My children by their very behavior. And
yet they who have been seduced will be given over to all manner of evil and
fleshly desire, saying, "It is God that has freed us." And I will make them
shame in the earth. And some you know already and you can name by name where
you see this happening.

I speak to you that it is a season now in which you must come with a
clarity, with a whole heart before me, and be sure that all of those
things -- the sin that comes against you -- are being put off for My sake.
For I have made you My righteousness, I have called you unto sanctification,
that there might be a cleansing that you body might by holy.

And yet many of you continue to interpret the word in your own way, not
heeding the counsel of My scriptures, eating what you will, taking into your
body that which seems good unto you, and all the time eating death,
shortening the days that have been given to you. I tell you, it is time
again to hear the word of My counsel, for would I change, would I give
counsel to My children only to change it later? For I am He that changeth
not, the same yesterday, today and forever. Hear the counsel of My word for
your body, for what you should eat and what you should not. And let not
those who instruct, those who by the media give the direction of what should
be taken in and what should not. I tell you, your God has given you a body
to be preserved, for it is My temple, saith the Lord, and do not share it
with the unclean, but keep your temples pure.

I have come to speak to you this day out of a heart that grieves for a
people so easily deceived, so easily led astray into the counsel of man and
of the false god of this world. You must  needs come again and understand it
is by My blood, the blood of the Lamb that you are able to overcome. It is
by My word within you, the testimony that is in you that you overcomes this
world.. And it is deep within you, that desire to lay down your soul life,
your outward life, and even the physical frame, if need be, for the kingdom
of your God.

I say, repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. And you must see that
in the year that lies in front of you, there are the beginnings now of a
political disaster. There will be war, and you will see it in many places
and eventually upon your own land. And then I say unto you, the false god of
mammon that you have bowed down to will crumble beneath your very fingers,
and you will see the economy stripped of the world. Your nation will come to
a place in which it no longer rules supreme throughout all of the earth. But
it, too shall bow its knee, and in the midst of surrender, many will come
and know that I AM God.

And when it appears that the nation has almost come to an end and that there
is no hope for it, I will arise in the midst of My body. I will make them
victorious warriors, and I will send them out to do mighty deeds in My name
so that they may overcome in the midst of a nation that has been overrun.
And in their overcoming shall they rise up again, and many, out of the
difficulties of the days that lie in front of you, will come to know your
God.

It is not the way that you would have done it, for I have sent you to be My
witnesses, and yet you have turned to your way of witnessing -- your
external ways of convincing with the mind, cajoling and bringing
condemnation. But I tell you, I will draw, for I have put it on the hearts
of those that will be saved, the drawing of My Word, and by the difficulties
that are about to come -- when they see  falling around them those that they
have worshipped -- they will come, their knee will bow before Me, the only
all-wise God, the Everlasting Father, He who is the Prince of Peace. I tell
you, your God who rules within you will rule over all the earth, and I will
usher in a kingdom, a kingdom of priests that shall be of worship unto me,
and prophets who will hear the name of the Lord, and proclaim once again the
clear counsel of their God. And all those who will reject will surely
perish, for My Word that dwells within you, even in your mouth, will begin
to speak of the things that lie ahead.

Let not your heart be troubled. See that you are not afraid, but hearken
unto My voice and draw nigh unto me, that you be a people who no longer are
led astray by every wind of doctrine and supposed truth. Be led in the plain
path of My righteousness and My hope. For I have a faith to put within you
that will bring about a love that men cannot resist, for it is love that
will cover a multitude of sins. And faith worketh by love.

So I say to you, this coming year is that year that I have geared you for
that you might be prepared to be put into action as instruments of My body,
My righteousness, My will. And I send you, yes, I send you as lambs among
wolves But fear not the wolf, for the Lion of Judah reigns within you as
supreme. I send you out to overcome this present world situation, and to
continue to occupy, to watch, to pray, for these things will usher in the
coming of your God.

I am not speaking of great tribulation, I am speaking of the days of sorrow
that have already begun, and will begin to accelerate even in the year that
lies in front of you, If you can hear My voice, then turn to Me. Repent of
all that which you've given yourself to, and be called to the place that I
have planted you, where I would have you to be. Forsake the teachings of men
which are nothing more than  the doctrines of demons, that I may teach you a
word in due season that will be life and meat to your bones and to those
around and about you. For ye are My body, and in you the hope of My glory
reigns, so says your God.

Amen
 
 

There Is No Peace In Self Fulfillment 7-3-03

"This is My will, that you make fire and smoke. Be a beacon on a hill. Some
may say, What do you think you are doing? Regard them not, for I have
commanded you to be on fire for me. The water pail that would douse your
flame will come from surprising sources, even from within. Be ready to
escape intimacy with those who call themselves by My name, and yet do not do
My will. I am taking the slack out of the church at this hour. The heart
that is not right before me will not know peace. I will call My own and they
will hear. Those who have no joy in Me will be full of themselves. There is
no peace in self fullfilment. I have a plan to bring those with a heart for
Me into the waterbrook of service. It will flow and trickle down, becoming
more and more like a river as it goes. The tributaries do not flow into My
river, but rather flow out from the river. That is the watering of my Spirit
moving forth to water the parched land. I will place you in the forefront of
the outpouring grace. Many will heed and come to consecration in this move
of the Spirit. I am overtaking the land like a flood. Soon it will spring
forth, leaving no one untouched by the power of the gospel. I am hedging up
my servants, and mantling them each with their own particular call and
station. I will place words in your mouth that no man can gainsay, nor any
devil stop. Like a flood My Spirit will raise up the standard of
righteousness, peace and joy. Go forth as a bride from the bridechamber and
prepare yourself for union with Me. I am coming soon. Amen."
 
 
 

The Cone Of Silence 6-30-03

Hi,

A unique and interesting ministration was given to me on Sunday morning.  I
heard the words, "Cone of silence" in my heart.  I meditated a moment and He
began to speak.

I like aviation and have held a pilot's licence for a time.  The Lord
ministered to me in this, but first I need to "educate" the reader as to the
meaning and intent by explaining about VOR omnirange navigation a bit. A VOR
is a navigation aid which aircraft tune in and when they set the radial they
can fly to that VOR and it is a beacon to them.  But when one arrives on top
of the beacon, there is a cone of silence where the nav aid flutters and
gives no sense of direction or of it's identity for a few moments in time.
Also one needs to know that the radials of a VOR are always "from" the VOR.
You can follow them "to" the VOR, but essentially they are tuned in as a
"from" indication.

Also a VOR has a unique morris code identifier and a unique frequency.  I
heard in the Spirit, the VOR for my neighbouring airport, YEG.  It plays
continuously the ident of the station for all who are tuned to it.  "Y" dah
dah dit dah.  "E" dit  "G" dah dah dit.

As I heard the code repeating again and again He said "And when he putteth
forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for
they know his voice.  And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee
from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.  The implied was that as
a pilot hears only the sound of the VOR he needs to get to, so we also hear
only His voice...

He said to me, "When you are tuned in and your course is set to a radial of
my presence, it will lead you to me.  But know that when you are on the
radial, there is a separation and a distance to be measured, for to be on a
radial from Me is to be at a distance from and in need of  "homing" to me.

He said that He was leading me to the very throne room of God, the holiest
of all, the secret place of the Most High, and that when I arrived in the
cone of silence, I would know peace which passeth understanding.  All fear
and negativity would drop away in silence.  I would be nurrtured for a time,
and then he would send me out.  He said that when He sends me out, he would
set the Omni bearing selector on my "VOR" so I would know of a certainty the
direction He will have me "fly."    "I am the door: by me if any man enter
in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture."

I had always wondered what that verse of scripture meant, being saved but
coming in and going out....now I understand better, if not completely, that
it has to do with being in Christ and serving Him by going out from Him the
way the disciples were sent out and yet always able to come back home again.
I got to like that!  "He that heareth you heareth me; and he that despiseth
you despiseth me; and he that despiseth me despiseth him that sent me. . And
the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are
subject unto us through thy name.  And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as
lightning fall from heaven.   Behold, I give unto you power to tread on
serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing
shall by any means hurt you. Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the
spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are
written in heaven..."

I have had a lot of negativity in my life  of late, and I was in need of a
touch from the Lord.  When He explained how I can come into the cone of
silence of His presence, and that was a good thing, I found myself begging
Him to let me in!  It was a very special time, and my heart soared while my
flesh reeled under the burden of the discovery of who I yet am.....

as ever, Upon This Rock
 
 

Vexing Challenges To Truth 6-19-03

My Children, beloved of My Father, I challenge you to give credence to the
overwhelming evidence of all I have said which is available in My word. Be
of a fruitful disposition, for vexing challenges to truth are manifesting
like the infestation of weeds in a garden. Worldly wisdom and vain
philosophy and deceit are creeping in and stealing the word from your
hearts. Consider the higher calling and persuasion of My word. It is I who
have voiced the truth from the portals of Heaven, and they of the world who
conclude it is so much flotsam and jetsam on their storm tossed seas of idol
worship.

The doctrine of men is the doctrine of demons and it will prosper in a good
ground heart Just as a thorn will prosper in a garden. I call you to purge
away the thorns of doubt, unbelief and discouragement. You are blessed for
believing, never having seen.

This is the epitome of faith, and the crux of the matter before Me, as I
have called the just to live by faith. My course is an eternal round, and
the natural mind cannot conceive that there is a circular path to be
followed and that all wisdom and truth originates with Me and culminates in
Me.

Do not be out of peace when things that perturb the natural mind are brought
to the forefront of your understanding with perplexity. I have not asked you
to understand everything, but I have asked you to have believing hearts.
There is a way that seems right unto a man but the ways thereof are the ways
of death.
 

The world has an understanding that seeing is believing, but I would not
have you ignorant that the higher application of this backwards imagery is
evident in My Kingdom as believing is seeing. All is not as it appears to
be, and the refutation of My soon coming second advent is blasphemed by
those who stand to lose in the glorious appearing. You, however, have
everything to gain, so hold onto your faith and hold on to My Hand as I make
you to lie down in green pastures and as I lead you beside the still waters.
I will refresh you spirit, soul and body. You shall be as a tree planted by
the rivers of water, bringing forth fruit each in your own season. Come to
the river and drink, My people! I love you with all the passion of God, for
I am He that has been ordained from before the foundation of the world to
lead you in a conquering path to the end of your faith, the salvation of
your souls! Amen.
 

--
"Have ears to hear what the Spirit is saying. It is the day of the Word of
My power. It is the day when I shall begin to openly reveal and divide
between that which is soul and that which is spirit, and there shall be a
clear delineation between the heart of man and the heart of God, and the one
who speaks from the heart of man shall be marked as one whose words fall to
the ground, but the one who speaks from the heart of God shall even be as
Samuel with none of his words falling to the ground and all that he speaks
shall come to pass for edification and the upholding of that which I do and
create in the earth."
 
 
 
 
 


 

Discern Moment To Moment The Manifestation" Of The Glorious Church 6-18-03

Every thought which proceeds from man's own wisdom and understanding has
within it only the capacity for darkness and is totally devoid of "light."
It is for this reason that I call My children not to be conformed to this
world and its ways, but rather that they be transformed by the renewing of
their minds by My Word.
 

Some of My children have removed themselves from My Word to such a degree,
that they have become entirely dependent on their own understanding in every
area of their lives, while attempting to live the life I have set out for
them. In them are two forces which are diametrically opposed to one another,
the flesh and the spirit of the man; and while their recreated spirit is for
the most part ignored, and continually borders on the brink of spiritual
starvation, their body and soul are being fed by those things which are
found in this world. And because of this, Satan is able to pervert the
process of assimilation I have set out for My children and rather than being
conformed to the image of My dear Son, they begin to take on the appearance
of the Evil One and pride and arrogance begin to become predominant in the
lives of My children.
 

As the spirit of anti-Christ is allowed to move amongst My people, the first
attempt in his deception of My people is to separate them from My Word and
cause them to trust in their own understanding; to trust in ritual and
doctrines formed by the minds of men in an attempt to form a "church" (one
world church) which operates solely in its worldly wisdom, and in denying
the Cross and the precious Blood of My Jesus, they bow their knee openly to
the Evil One, making themselves enemies of the Most High and reaping as
their due the darkness and death which infest this world.

Have I not called My children to put on the armour of light? Have I not
delivered them from the power of darkness and transferred them to the
Kingdom of My dear Son and allowed them to share in the inheritance of the
saints in light? I say to you this day that those who seek light shall find
it and those who continue to seek darkness, by their own choice, will surely
be engulfed by it. For great darkness will cover the earth and deep darkness
the peoples, but My glory shall appear on those of My children who
continually seek My face and the nations will come to their light....

I say to you, My beloved ones, that the day shall come, and now is, when My
people shall cry out to me from a pure heart and they shall seek My counsel
and they shall regard My prophets and the Word which is spoken forth from My
Throne. It is not My desire to see My children wallow in their despair, for
the "desperate" situations which they have "allowed" themselves to be snared
in are clearly a product of their intense desire to lean upon their own
understanding, rather than the godly wisdom which resides within them. Have
I not said in My Word, "put your trust in the Lord your God and you will be
established?" Have I not also said, "Put your trust in My prophets and
succeed?" Men who operate in and from plans based on their own fleshly
wisdom will continue on in their plans in an effort to establish them. It is
when with their five physical senses, they begin to discern "failure" that
they will turn to Me with a pure heart and put themselves in a position to
hear My voice. I will not waste the time of My servants, the prophets, in
sending them to speak My Word to those who have hardened their hearts
against Me; for quite simply they would only "pretend" to hear, with no
intent of heart to act on what was given to them.
 
 

The days of My Glorious Church are at hand and truly, truly I say to you I
shall exalt those who have humbled themselves before Me, in the eyes of all
My people; the days of carnality in My church are at an end and My glory
shall fill the earth. I say to you again I shall honour those greatly who
have laid aside the things of this world for the sole purpose of drawing
near to Me. Indeed I will do exceeding abundantly beyond their fondest
dreams. For it is the time for the "revealing" of My sons and daughters in
the earth"....
 
 

The time wherein My Church is mocked and scorned has come to an end! For in
this last hour My power shall be manifested in such a way as to dispel any
doubts as to Who is Lord. Those who, in their ignorance, continue to push
aside My Word in order to go their own way, shall surely perish; for My
wrath shall surely fall upon those, who, in their rebelliousness, align
themselves with Satan. This is a time for those who would serve Me from a
pure heart, to keep their eyes upon Me alone, and in keeping their eyes
fixed upon the things which are not perceived by the five physical senses,
they shall be enabled to minister My salvation powerfully, free from the
sway of any bondage to the "flesh".
 
 

Those in the five-fold ministry who have refused to fellowship with Me,
shall lack the power to set the captives free, and because of this My sheep
will desert them as they stand in their sin, and I shall both lead them and
send them to My faithful ones. For in their "perseverance" they shall surely
win the day and Satan shall indeed be trampled underneath their holy
feet"....
 

The influence of the Evil One shall be "completely removed" from My Church
as the power of My anointing flows "unhindered" through the spirits of those
who have cleansed themselves from "all" defilement of flesh and spirit.
 

Indeed, the faith of those who are clean before Me shall rise up and
devastate the works of Satan, and My light shall abide within them, and in
them there shall be no cause for error or for stumbling. For behold in Zion
I have laid a stone, a tested stone, a costly cornerstone for the
foundation, firmly placed, and he who believes in it shall not be disturbed;
and there shall be no fear in the hearts of those who have aligned
themselves with Me spirit, soul, and body; and, if no fear, then it shall be
only "absolute" faith which pours forth upon the words which they speak out
of the abundance of their holy hearts. For in this day and in this hour I
shall do a work of great magnitude in My Church for all the world to see and
no more shall the scoffers scoff or the mockers mock; for they shall see
clearly the revelation of My sons and daughters in the earth. Did not those
who were filled with My Spirit at Pentecost, turn the world upside down?
Indeed, My Spirit shall be poured forth in such a manner as to uproot "all"
the walls and foundations which have harboured the lies of the Evil One and
led My people astray; and all those who truly love Me shall marvel at all
these things and they shall "wonder" how they could ever have been held
captive by darkness for so long; and they shall turn, and through the
anointing which abides within them, they shall be vessels of the greatest
attack and assault upon the strongholds of the Evil One that the earth has
ever seen. Thus shall My ministry be fulfilled, as My spotless and
unblemished Church rises to meet Me in the Heavens"....

It is as "all" stumbling blocks, that is, the traditions and doctrines of
men, and all rebellion, are removed from My Church, that My righteous ones
shall shine forth as the sun. To the degree that My Spirit is allowed to
flow unhindered through the hearts of those who truly serve Me, it is to
that degree My "glorious" Church shall come into manifestation in the
earth"....

Whenever My Spirit comes into "contact" with something, order is restored.
Perfect obedience in My children is dependent upon a deep and "living"
revelation of the fact that what is continually sown to the flesh shall end
in death and what is continually sown to the Spirit shall end in life. I
shall use, to a great degree, My holy apostles and prophets, to be vessels
of the revelation of My will to those who truly seek to be free; and the
words which I give My apostles and prophets to speak will instantly be
confirmed in their hearts (those who will hear) and they shall "immediately"
know what they must do, in obedience, to turn the tables on the Evil One;
and so shall My holy apostles and prophets be sought out throughout the
land, and as My people begin to incline their hearts "wholly" toward Me,
they themselves shall be able to discern My will for their lives, and all of
the five-old ministry shall be "freed up" to both establish the local
churches, and carry out the tasks which I have ordained for them. The advent
of the "last wave" of My holy apostles and prophets shall signal the
beginning of the very end! My church is no longer going to be a church that
only "talks" of Me, but they shall be a Church with "Me" in their midst!
 

Before My people are "caught away" they shall live in the earth under an
"open heaven!  This is the time wherein I shall lead all those who truly
love Me into the fullness of their inheritance in Christ!

Those things that I am speaking to My holy apostles and prophets, in these
last days, are truly My "final words" to My children in this "dispensation"
(Church Age). these "words" are greatly anointed and when received into a
heart that is wholly given they shall surely leave that one (or ones) into
the fullness of their inheritance in Christ. And truly I say to you, they
shall be perfectly equipped to fulfill the ministry that I
created them to walk in and they shall lead and prepare My spotless and
unblemished Church to the "Catching Away.

My children need to discern moment to moment those things which are
profitable or not profitable to the establishment of My Church and the
furtherance of My Kingdom in the earth. For in doing so they shall surely
"rise above" the schemes of the Evil One and they shall begin to "control"
him and his forces to a "degree" never before seen in the earth.
 

My holy apostles and prophets are not "after" flesh and blood as they go
forth to carry out My will concerning the establishment of My local
Church. I am after the "evil spirits" working behind them ("religious
spirits") and "all the ground" from which they have been working, in order
that those who have "allowed" themselves to be held captive by a "spirit of
rebellion" against Me and My most holy Will, might be led to a full and
thorough repentance before Me and come to a "knowledge" (revelation) of all
that I have for them. Today is the beginning of the very end of Satan and
his "schemes"in My church!"....

The Word that is "preached" in this last hour is not being put forth for the
purpose of "entertaining" or "amusing" My people. It is for this one
purpose, and this one purpose only: that they might walk in the "fullness"
of their inheritance in Christ!

As long as one keeps their eyes upon themselves they are"useless" (unfit -
unusable) to be used in the establishment of My Kingdom and the "proper"
edification of My Church! It is the Anointing that "gives" the inheritance!"

The prerequisite to My people being "elevated" in their own lives is to get
their eyes off of themselves and onto Me (My Word)!

My children cannot go where I would have them go in this last hour unless
their spirit-man is continually in dominance over their soul and
body!

Perfect love casts out "all" selfishness! If one "believes" that they can
stand in the pulpit to minister My Word while "maintaining" a lackadaisical
(negligent) attitude in their diligence concerning the practical affairs of
life then they are deceived! For truly I say to you, for My Church to reach
the fullness of the physical manifestation of My Glory (Glorious Church)
every word that goes forth from every pulpit must be ministered in the
"fullness of conviction" for it is only in this way that My people can be
"elevated" to the "proper position" continually!

In the past nearly two thousand years, you have seen certain individuals and
even small remnants (groups) of My people abide in a perfect obedience and
you have seen the impact of their lives upon both the church and the
"world". But it is certain that compared to what you are about to see, these
lives - as glorious as they were - are just a "glimpse" compared to the
"soon manifestation" of the Glorious Church through which the entire earth
shall be filled with My Glory - a remnant of My people through whom the
"former and the latter rain" shall be poured out as a "flood". There is no
possible way for any one of you to fully comprehend "at this time" the
"magnitude" of the "impact" that this outpouring shall have in one way or
another on "every facet" of human existence before you leave the earth. Have
I not spoken to you previously saying, "There is no limit to what I can
accomplish through one who will diligently keep their spirit-man in
dominance over their soul and body?

One then can "begin" to imagine what will happen in this earth when
thousands upon thousands of My children begin to guard their hearts with
"all" diligence! Certain hospitals shall "supernaturally" be emptied as My
power flows down every hall way and throughout every room - driving out
every sickness and disease and the "spirits" behind them. And the "spirit of
death" - the final foe - shall literally be put to flight before the
"continuous onslaught" of My children in this last hour!

Even this slight glimpse into the time of the Glorious Church is
"mind-boggling" apart from the Spirit of wisdom and revelation! And thus
your only recourse, as My precious sons and daughters is to abide moment to
moment in the "Spirit of wisdom and revelation" so that each one of you
individually - as you are diligent to obey - can bring about the divinely
ordained, corporate, glorious manifestation of the Body of Christ in this
last hour. For My children to walk in anything less than "revelation" -
moment to moment, day to day, would serve only to impede this most glorious
outpouring. One thing that I have made superabundantly clear in My Word is
this: in this last hour "all those" who "truly" desire to be completely
freed shall be completely freed and all those who "refuse" to be freed shall
abide in an ever increasing state of death, darkness and bondage!

I expose whatever is "wrong" in My church first to My holy apostles and
prophets in order that they might declare My words - first to the
principalities and powers and then to the hearts of the people after a time
of "intercession" in their behalf!

The days of My people "bending" My Word to fit their own "philosophy(s)" and
"religious" practices are over!

All those who have allowed themselves to be held captive by a spirit of
self-exaltation are deceived! For they "unconsciously" hold to the belief
that in their own "self- exhalative" practices I shall be glorified and
exalted but that is "never" the case! Truly I say to you, that which
proceeds from the flesh is flesh, and seeks only to exalt "self" in its
endless pursuit of "self-glory" and "self-exaltation" and its end is
increasing darkness and distance from My true plan for their lives. Because
of this their eyes cannot see and their hearts will not hear the "revelation
knowledge" pertaining to My true Church and My true plan in this last hour.
And unless a thorough repentance is forthcoming they shall surely be found
fighting against My obedient ones in this last hour!"

The "culmination" of one's walking in the fullness of their inheritance in
Christ shall be at the "catching away" of My Church!
 

If one "fellowships" with the world then they are going to think as the
world thinks and act as the world acts! If one "fellowships" with Me in My
Kingdom then they shall think as I think and act as I act[! I am not coming
for a "distracted" church!"....

Some things are more imminent than others but, because of the"lateness" of
the hour let it be known that "all things" pertaining to My Glorious Church
are imminent!".... There is no room for "self-desire" in a spotless and
unblemished Church!....

Did I not say that perfect obedience is the quickest way home?  Therefore,
from this, one can see clearly that it is only "fellowship" with the world
that can "prolong" one's stay in the earth.  I speak the "end" from the
beginning. The end is not the beginning and the beginning is not the end!
 
 

How can one of My children hold to the "thought" that I am "unapproachable"
when they have yet to make a steadfast and diligent effort to enter into
perfect (intimate) fellowship with Me on a daily basis? If one does not take
the "necessary" steps to draw near to Me then they shall "allow" Satan to
deceive them into thinking that I am "unapproachable" and "uninterested" in
the so-called "minor" details or aspects of their life. But truly I say to
you, this is just a convenient excuse for one to lean upon their "own"
understanding and thus "maintain" control in their own lives and thus in the
lives of others - having "allowed" themselves to be deceived by the Evil
One! Everything in this last hour hinges on the "position" of My children!
Will they be seated at My right hand in the heavenly places with (in)
Christ? Or will they "fellowship" with the world and "allow" themselves to
be controlled by the spirit of darkness that enshrouds it?
 

Truly I say to you, in this last hour the true "heart-position" of "every"
last child of Mine shall be revealed and exposed for all to see and once
again one shall be able to distinguish between the one who "truly" loves Me
and the one who does not and the one who "truly" serves Me and the one who
does not. And thus, there shall be a great "confrontation" between those of
My children "completely given" to abiding in love and those of My children
who, through their "refusal" to draw near to My Word "maintain" a certain
ground of pride and arrogance and rebellion towards "Me". This is not a
confrontation between "flesh and blood" but rather this is a "spiritual"
warfare and battle of great significance! For on the one side My remnant of
holy ones shall continually manifest a perfect love "towards" those of their
brothers and sisters who are used by the Evil One to come against them and
thus they shall "obliterate" and "devastate" the vast majority of the
strongholds that Satan has been "allowed" to build in the "sons of
disobedience" and the "vast majority" of those who "had" been in rebellion
against Me shall repent and they shall "mesh" with My glorious remnant so
swiftly and smoothly that it shall seem as if they had never been apart!
Again I say to you, the aforementioned "confrontation" is in no way a
confrontation between "flesh and blood"! In reality, it is the "final" and
"greatest" confrontation in the church age between the Holy Spirit and the
"spirit of anti- Christ"! The end result of this confrontation shall be that
Satan and his forces are both devastated and "driven out" from the midst of
all those of My children who truly love Me and in the final days of the
presence of My glorious Church in the earth there shall be "nothing" in
their midst to "hinder" the outworking of the final stages of My Plan to
spread the "absolute truths" of the Gospel throughout the earth and in a
short time the "final" stages of My Plan for this dispensation shall be
completed and I shall catch away My faithful ones in that perfect moment!
 

It is only from the place of a "heart wholly given" that I am able to reveal
"absolute truth" - the absolute truth that is necessary in this last hour
for the manifestation of the "absolute victory" I have called My Glorious
Church to walk in!"....

"The Spirit is saying. It is the day of the Word of My power. It is the day
when I shall begin to openly reveal and divide between that which is soul
and that which is spirit, and there shall be a clear delineation between the
heart of man and the heart of God, and the one who speaks from the heart of
man shall be marked as one whose words fall to the ground, but the one who
speaks from the heart of God shall even be as Samuel with none of his words

edification and the upholding of that which I do and create in the earth."
 
 
 
 

It Is Time 6-17-03

 It is time for the false gods and idols, which have captivated the hearts
of the  multitudes, to be destroyed.     It is time for the harvest to be
secured according to what each one of My children have sown to.     It is
time to both expose and remove from My church the "ministers of corruption
and perversity", those who have both ignored and mishandled My holy Word.
It is time for the multitudes to see the "living" Christ in a way which they
have never been able to see Him before.     It is time for the strongholds,
which have continued to hold many of My children in bondage, to be
destroyed.     It is time for My apostles and prophets to "explode" on the
scene and re-route the course of an adulterous and backslidden church.
It is time for My love to be shed abroad in and poured forth through the
hearts of the many.     It is time for all the works of iniquity to be
exposed.     It is time for the revelation of My "sons and daughters" in the
earth.     It is time for the "fear of the Lord" to reign in the hearts of
all those who profess their love for Me.     It is time for those who have
mocked and scorned My beloved Son, to perish at the hands of their own
foolishness.      It is time for the Body of Christ to awaken and arise.
 It is time for My power and My glory to fill the earth.     It is time for
death and its "lord" to be trampled beneath the feet of My beloved Son,
never to arise again.     It is time far those who truly love Me to take up
their "cross" and thus deny themselves.     It is time for faith and
obedience to once again be established as the foremost priority in the lives
of all My children.  Warn My people for indeed the curtain is about to
close

"Have ears to hear what the Spirit is saying. It is the day of the Word of
