THE
MINISTRY LETTER 2007 ISSUE 14
To all
handmaidens and bondservants of the Lord Jesus Christ:
"THE PERFECT EMPOWERMENT THAT THE FATHER HAS
FOR EACH AND EVERY ONE OF HIS CHILDREN HAS BEEN HINDERED GREATLY IN THE CHURCH
THROUGH THE FEAR OF MAN"
The
perfect empowerment that the Father has for each and every one of His children
has been hindered greatly in the church - up until this time - through the fear
of man. But, in this last hour, as the fear [reverence] of God and His Will
take precedence over all things in the life of the true believer, the Father is
raising up a mighty force in the earth - a people who have no fear of man or
devil. Satan and His forces cannot stop the heart that is "wholly
given" to God - the heart that has the love of God shed abroad within, a
heart in which every ground of fear has been - and is in the process of being -
cast out, through a deep and abiding revelation of the Father's love. One can
begin to see from these things the great devastation that Satan and his forces
are going to experience at the hands of the Glorious Church in this final hour!
"IT IS A FOOLISH THING FOR ONE TO THINK THAT SATAN - IN
ANY WAY - COULD END UP AHEAD OF JESUS CHRIST!"
It is
a foolish thing for one to "think" [consciously or unconsciously
through unbelief] that Satan - IN ANY WAY - could end up ahead of Jesus Christ!
In this final hour, as the Glorious Church comes into full manifestation
through the unhindered power of the Holy Spirit, that which was used to
"glorify" Satan in unrighteousness [darkness, greed and lust] shall
be given into the hands of those who will use it to continually glorify the
Father and His Word to the greatest degree.
"WITHOUT A DISTINCT ACCLIMATIZATION TO THE
PRESENCE AND HEART OF THE FATHER IN THIS HOUR ONE SHALL NOT OVERCOME BUT,
RATHER, SHALL BE OVERCOME BY THE DEEP DARKNESS THAT IS EVEN NOW ENSHROUDING THE
WORLD"
The
days are gone wherein ANY Christian can settle for the place of "just
getting by", and exercising only a "defensive" warfare against
Satan and his schemes - that is, looking out for oneself without regard to the
totality of the Father's will for the Church. The Father's ultimate purpose in
raising up an army of "living stones" is to carry out a "search
and destroy" warfare - a constant and intense and holy warfare that
continually puts Satan and his forces to flight! In these days [as those who
are faithful and obedient are entering into the fullness of everything that the
Father has called us to] we need to take the Word of God as the Holy Spirit
shows it to us [day by day] - and, by doing so, receive His total empowerment
in the carrying out of our portion of Jesus' ministry. In this hour the
fullness of the Father's plan is going to unfold in many "radical"
ways [extreme and surprising to those who are unfamiliar with the true
spiritual reality of the Kingdom]! Without a distinct
"acclimatization" to the presence and heart of the Father in this
hour one shall not overcome but, rather, shall be overcome by the deep darkness
that is even now enshrouding the "world". Because of these things, the
first and foremost priority of every child of God must be to carry out their
perfect part in the unfolding of the Father's will. It will be only a continued
faithfulness and obedience to the divine purpose that will keep one in the
proper spiritual positioning to overcome in ALL things - in this final hour!
"WHEN ONE HAS THE DEEP ASSURANCE IN THEIR HEART
THAT WHAT THEY ARE SAYING AND DOING IS IN THE CENTER OF GOD'S WILL THEN THEY
CAN KNOW THAT WHAT THEY HAVE SAID AND DONE WILL NOT RETURN VOID, AND THAT IT
WILL ACCOMPLISH EXACTLY WHAT THE FATHER DESIRES TO ACCOMPLISH"
Every
last one of us, as Christians, should be seeking to speak the right word and
carry out the right action in any given moment - KNOWING that not only is our
labour NOT in vain, but that it will ALWAYS produce the greatest eternal
benefit in that situation - whether we "see" the results
immediately or not. When one has the deep assurance in their heart that what
they are saying and doing is in the center of God's will THEN they can know
that what they have said and done will not "return void", and that it
will accomplish EXACTLY what the Father desires to accomplish. This is the type
of attitude that every Christian must possess in this final hour. People who do
not "maintain" that holy and faithful attitude will not realize their
need for God's grace [empowerment] - nor will they seek it, for their eyes
continue to remain upon themselves, and their own goals [unrighteous attitudes
and motivations that are the fruit of self-desire]. The first and foremost
priority of EVERY true believer should be to enter into the fullness of the
Father's will for their life and ministry. When the church comes into that
righteous state of mind THEN the power of God shall surely flow forth through
her in "torrents". It is the Father's deepest heart-desire to show
Himself strong on the behalf of all those who walk uprightly before Him, and He
has many great purposes - not the least of which is to set the captives free.
"WHEN THE SPIRIT OF WISDOM AND REVELATION [HE
IS ALSO THE SPIRIT OF LOVE] IS THE PREDOMINANT FORCE IN ONE'S LIFE THEN THE
SPONTANEOUS OUTFLOW IN WORD AND DEED WILL ALWAYS BE IN PERFECT ACCORDANCE WITH
THE FATHER'S HEART"
All
that the Father is doing in these days in the hearts of His children [the refining
process] is making a way for His love to flow forth unhindered through them.
Each and every one of God's children have a great purpose in the Kingdom, but
it must be clearly understood by each one truly seeking the fullness of the
Father's purpose that there is a distinct call and command to ACKNOWLEDGE Him
in ALL of their ways. He will [and is already] directing perfectly the path of
all those whose heart has been wholly given to Him. When the Spirit of wisdom
and revelation [He is also the Spirit of love] is the predominant force in
one's life THEN the spontaneous outflow in word and deed will always be in
perfect accordance with the Father's heart [as long as that one is truly
seeking God and, thus, seeking to be righteously motivated in ALL things]. If
there is something that rises up from the flesh from time to time - then it is
easily recognizable and can be quickly repented of by one whose heart is wholly
given because - in their continued faithfulness their heart will remain both
sensitive and flexible [yielding] to the direction of the Holy Spirit.
"ALL THOSE WHO TRULY LOVE GOD [THOSE WHO HAVE
DRAWN NEAR TO HIM IN FAITHFULNESS AND OBEDIENCE] CAN HAVE THE DEEP ASSURANCE
[REGARDLESS OF CIRCUMSTANCES] THAT THEY ARE RIGHT ON SCHEDULE AS FAR AS THE
FATHER'S PERFECT PURPOSE FOR THEM GOES - BOTH INDIVIDUALLY AND
CORPORATELY"
These
are glorious days - days in which the Father is pouring out His love upon [and
within] His faithful ones. What those who are wholly given to the highest
purposes of God are experiencing in this hour - sometimes in a very intense way
- is simply a deeper acclimatization to the Father's love in
"perfect" preparation for the glorious days ahead. His presence is a
holy fire that consumes any "dross" within us - dross being defined
as any remaining ground of fear [fear and pride rooted in our past
experience and relationships apart from Christ]. All those who truly love God
[those who have drawn near to Him in faithfulness and obedience] can have the
deep assurance [regardless of circumstances] that they are "right on
schedule" as far as the Father's perfect purpose for them goes - both
individually and corporately.
Always remember:
Love
[faith - obedience] NEVER fails to effect the Father's perfect purpose!
Let us hear the words of the Father:
"I AM OPPOSED TO THE PROUD, BUT GIVE GRACE TO THE
HUMBLE"
...."The
time has come for the chaff to be separated from the wheat for many of My
children have resisted My call to holiness and because of this they have
allowed themselves to become firmly entrenched in the evil one's territory
[world] and he has mounted a campaign to lead them into the pit by deceiving
them at every turn and they run headlong into the trap which has been set; for
the rulers of the darkness of this world are working furiously to bring
destruction and death to My people, and they have been given abundant
opportunity to do so and because of this I am grieved to a great degree. Have I
not spoken in My Word, "take heed therefore that the light which is in you
be not darkness?" Have I not spoken also that the friendship of the world
is enmity with Me? And again, that "whosoever therefore will be a friend
of the world is the enemy of God?" Why do My people forsake Me? Why do
they make My word of no account in their lives? For truly I say to you I desire
to lead them victoriously every moment of their existence. But they, through
their own arrogant pride, have allowed themselves to be deceived by Satan and
they have sought after that wisdom which is not from above, but which is
earthly, sensual and devilish. Is it not written, "I am opposed to the
proud, but give grace to the humble?"
"TO ALL THOSE WHO WILL WALK BY FAITH IN ALL THINGS....IT
IS YOU WHO WILL INHERIT THE FULLNESS OF MY KINGDOM"
...."My
Word and My Spirit are enough! And to all those who will walk by faith in all
things, I say to you this day, it is you who will inherit the fullness of My
Kingdom; for in humbling yourselves before My presence, you shall surely be
exalted in the sight of all My people and I shall be able to manifest My power
through you and I shall pour forth My Spirit upon all flesh because of
you"....
"THEIR HEARTS SHALL BECOME AN OPEN RECEPTACLE OF
MY GRACE AND POWER!"
...."When
My children's hearts are in continual right-standing with Me, they shall indeed
be entrusted fully with all the riches of My glory and their hearts shall become
an "open receptacle" of My grace and power!"....
"THE ANSWER TO EVERY QUESTION WHICH COULD EVER CROSS THE MIND OF MAN IS
FOUND IN MY WISDOM"
...."There
is no problem, there is no difficulty; there is no evil from which My
children have not been redeemed. For in My Word is found the provision to meet
"all" the needs of every one of My children. The answer to every
question which could ever cross the mind of man is found in My Wisdom, for I
have left nothing out. Every facet, every minute detail of human
existence in this earth has been provided for under My Covenant of grace. This
is an "absolute revelation" which must burn within the hearts of each
one of My children. For in this last hour, if they choose to separate themselves
from My Covenant, they shall surely suffer defeat at the hands of Satan in that
area in which they do not believe. For in this last hour it is only faith
exercised in My Word which will allow My people to survive in the earth. It is
not a "punishment" for My people to live by faith, but rather a
blessing of "unlimited capacity". As they repent and turn from all
wickedness, they shall experience the fullness of My life. Indeed, the time has
come for My children, to lay aside "all" dependence upon the
"flesh" and submit themselves completely to My Word - and My Word
alone!"....
...."It is
not enough to remain "in grace", it must increase - through the
continual exercising of an absolute faith and trust in Me"....
"ALL THOSE OF MY CHILDREN WHO ABIDE IN MY WORD
WILL IN NO WAY FEEL COMPELLED TO JUSTIFY OR EXALT THEMSELVES FOR THEY SHALL
HAVE THE CONTINUAL ASSURANCE IN THEIR HEART OF THE RIGHT-STANDING AND AUTHORITY
THEY HAVE IN CHRIST"
...."Any
word spoken which exalts "self" - and, thus, seeks to
"downgrade" [de-elevate] another - has its root in the fear and
"insecurity" of the one speaking. Is it not written "Let no
unwholesome word proceed from your mouth, except that word which brings
[imparts] grace to those who hear according to the need of the moment"?
Indeed, if one of My children finds themselves speaking "unwholesome"
words to, or about, others the sole reason for this is that they have lost
sight of who they are in Christ, and thus they must attempt to establish and
justify themselves before "flesh and blood". All those of My children
who abide in My Word will in no way feel compelled to justify or exalt
themselves for they shall have the "continual assurance" in their
heart of the "right- standing" and authority they have in Christ"....
"ALL RIGHTEOUSNESS IS ALWAYS DIRECTED TOWARDS
THE COMPLETE DEVASTATION AND ANNIHILATION OF SATAN'S PURPOSES AND PLANS"
...."All
unrighteousness is always "directed" towards the destruction of My
purposes and plans; all righteousness is always directed towards the complete
devastation and annihilation of Satan's purposes and plans"....
"IT IS AS THE HEARTS OF MY CHILDREN ARE
WHOLLY GIVEN".....
...."It
is as the hearts of My children are "wholly given" to my highest
purposes that the final and all-consuming release of the outpouring of My
Spirit shall bring forth the manifestation of My perfect plan for My spotless
and unblemished Church - and the total devastation of all satanic strongholds
in the midst of My people in this final hour!....
"HOW PLEASING IT IS TO ME TO SEE THOSE OF MY
CHILDREN WHO HAVE NO FEAR OF MAN"
...."There
is something very special to Me about a heart that goes "all out". In
their "youth" I shall indeed cover their mistakes and I shall surely
teach them and instruct them in My counsel, and in the way to go. But again I
say to you how pleasing it is to Me to see those of My children who have no
"fear of man", and as the "rough edges" are smoothed they
shall surely come forth as gold, precious vessels of My holy presence in the
midst of My people"....
"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 this day that those who truly seek divine light shall find it and
those who continue to seek "darkness" - by their own choice and
through their own desires - will surely be engulfed by it. For in this hour
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"....
"DEEP DARKNESS SHALL ENSHROUD THOSE WHO TURN THEIR
FACE FROM ME IN THIS FINAL HOUR!"
...."I
direct the feet of My children onto the path I have chosen for them and prepare
perfectly the way before them. One needs to hear the voice of My Spirit in
order to walk in the fullness of this revelation. For if one seeks to lean upon
their own understanding and, thus, go their own way, they will surely enter
onto the path which the Evil One would have them on. Truly, truly I say to you
there are only two paths: one leading to death and one leading to life; one
leading away from Me and one leading to Me. My children must choose to remain
constantly on the path which I have chosen for them, for deep darkness shall
enshroud those who turn their face from Me in this final hour!"....
"BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO SERVE ME AND WALK
UPRIGHTLY BEFORE ME"
...."There
will come a day, My children, when men will flee in terror from your
"presence". For no sin will be able to stand in the presence of My
Spirit, and from you shall flow not just trickles of living water, but torrents
which will flood out upon all flesh and through this process My spotless and
unblemished Church - full of My glory - shall stand before Me. Blessed are
those who serve Me and walk uprightly before Me, for they shall ride the crest
of this great flood of My Spirit in the earth and greatly shall they be
exalted!"....
...."Truly,
truly I say to you, the time has come to remove "all" of the dross
and impurity from My Body by the consuming fire of My Spirit!"....
"GREAT TERROR SHALL OVERWHELM AND CONSUME THE
PRIDEFUL AND ARROGANT AND REBELLIOUS HEARTS IN THE MIDST OF THE CONGREGATIONS
OF MY PEOPLE"
...."As
I send forth My holy apostles and prophets, there will be times that they shall
be "consumed" by the Spirit of wrath! For My wrath must be revealed
against all ungodliness and unrighteousness. And great terror shall overwhelm
and consume the "prideful and arrogant and rebellious" hearts in the
midst of the congregations of My people; and their hearts shall faint and
"all" their plans and "religious activities" shall be as
nothing, and even those who behold this "spectacle" from
"afar" shall be affected deeply by the power that goes forth; and yet
those whose hearts are "wholly given" to Me, and who are in the
presence of this Spirit of wrath, shall in a holy fear and trembling, draw
nearer to Me. For this manifestation of My power shall burn the
"dross" and bring to light any iniquity, and purge them of
it!"....
*****
MEDITATIONS ON THE TRUE CHRISTIAN LIFE:
+ The
chief priests mocking Him, with the scribes and elders, said..."Let Him
now come down from the Cross, and we will believe".... [Matthew 27:41-42].
There is also a "religious" world which rejects the Cross of Jesus.
They who are not prepared to follow a crucified Lord; who "love the chief
place", and the "chief seats", "and the salutations in the
marketplaces, and to be called of men, "rabbi". They who "say
and do not", and "all their works they do for to be seen of
men". This religious world loves not the Cross, although in the twentieth
century it bears the name of Him Who died upon the Cross. Love of power and the
praise of men, is contrary to the spirit of the Cross!
+ The Son,
perfected forevermore, has perfected us forever. It is in Jesus that we have
our perfection. It is in living union with Him; it is when He is within us, not
only as a seed or little child but formed within us, dwelling within us, that
we shall know how far He can make us "perfect". It is faith that
leads us in the path of perfection. It is the faith that sees, that receives,
that lives in Jesus the Perfect One, that will bear us on to the perfection God
would have.
+ In Holy
Scripture, morning is a time full of wonder. It is the time of God's help for
His church, the time of joy after a night of weeping, the time of proclamation
of the divine Word, the daily distribution of the "sacred manna". The
people of faith wake early because of their "expectation" of God's
marvellous acts. Sleep no longer holds them. They rush to greet the early grace
of God!
+ The evil
moods, uncontrollable emotions and desires, which we cannot get rid of during
the day are often enough simply "ghosts of the night" that were not
driven off in the morning and now want to spoil the day for us. The first
moments of the new day are not the time for our "own" plans and
worries, not even for our zeal to accomplish our own work, but for God's
liberating grace, God's sanctifying presence. Before the heart unlocks itself
for the world, God wants to open it for Himself; before the ear takes in the
countless voices of the day, it should hear in the early hours the voice of the
Creator and Redeemer. God prepared the stillness of the first morning for
Himself. It should remain His.
+ Before our
daily bread should be the daily Word. Before our daily work should be the
morning prayer. Only thus will the work be done as the fulfilment of God's
command. The morning must yield a sufficient amount of quiet time for prayer
and common devotion. This is certainly not wasted time. How else could we
prepare ourselves to face the tasks, cares, and temptations of the day? And
although we are not often "in the mood", such devotion is an
obligatory service to the One Who desires our praises and prayers, and Who will
not otherwise be "enabled" to bless our day fully, but through His
Word and our prayers.

GOLDEN
MANNA FROM THE MOUNT
"ARISE WITH NEW HOPE"
Bill Burns
bulletin@spiritofprophecy.com
http://ft111.com
My
children, you do not know who you are. You live in the power of the greatest
kingdom. You live under the realm of My glory. You are led by My Spirit. You
have not yet reached your potential, but if you will rise up and believe My
Word and allow it to become seed to your spirit, then you shall see and know
the hidden mysteries of My kingdom. It is My good pleasure to reveal these
things to you, and the mysteries shall indeed unfold and unroll like a scroll
to the hearts and minds of those who are willing to receive it. You are
included in My plans, and your destiny shall be fulfilled. When you turn your
eyes upon Me and tune your ears to Me, then the glory of the kingdom shall be
manifest in your life. You will be transformed and changed. Arise with new hope,
and allow hope to be the door through which you enter the light of My presence.
I will walk with you, and we shall talk one with another, and I will give
answers with regard to your circumstances as I give you wisdom, says the Lord.
"THE DOOR OF HOPE IS OPEN"
This
is the very time of the rebuilding of the walls of your city. In this season
you will be like Nehemiah, and you shall repair the breached walls and re-hang
the gates. You shall go forth, for this is the work of My Spirit as I rebuild
you as the City of God. Let there be no gaps for the enemy to enter in through.
You will also have to work with a tool in one hand and a sword in the other, for
the enemy will try to stop this work, but it cannot be stopped. The pattern of
this blessing has already been established, and it shall be according to My
word in the likeness of the days of Nehemiah and Ezra. In the rebuilding take
pleasure in fulfilling the responsibility that I have given you. When the work
is finished, those who have opposed you shall know that this was the work of
Almighty God among His people. The door of hope is open. Walk through it now
with faith in what I have spoken to you. I am with you to help you lay stone
upon stone until the building is complete. You shall indeed overcome, conquer,
and be victorious in every battle. Arise and run to the battle and do not be
timid, for I give you the strength of war. I have taught your fingers to make
war and given you the strength to pull a bronze bow. Go forth now and see the
great victory, says the Lord.

"IT IS NECESSARY FOR YOU TO ALLOW THIS TIME OF SOUL SEARCHING TO BRING YOU
TO A NEW PLATEAU OF FAITH"
Marsha Burns
bulletin@spiritofprophecy.com
http://ft111.com
You are
going to face situations that will challenge the very foundation of your
motivation. Even though this will seem very difficult at times, it is necessary
for you to allow this time of soul searching to bring you to a new plateau of
faith. Your circumstances will provide opportunities to seek Me for wisdom and
establish trust, for I am your very present help in times of trouble and I
alone will bring you through. This is a time when the refining fires burn hot.
Let those things burn that cannot withstand the heat, for certainly that which
remains will be cherished for its great and eternal value, says the Lord.
.... Now if
anyone builds on this foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay,
straw, each one's work will become clear; for the Day will declare it, because
it will be revealed by fire; and the fire will test each one's work, of what
sort it is....
1 Corinthians 3:12-13
"I HAVE SET BEFORE YOU AN ELEVATION IN THE
SPIRIT REALM"
I
have set before you an elevation in the spirit realm, and you can now take a
step up. Your obedience to My directives has made this possible, for surely I
reward those who are diligent to seek Me and obey My commands. This step up
will be mind- boggling in many ways, for much of what you encounter at this
time will be beyond your scope of expectation or understanding. Rejoice in
knowing that I have brought you further than you ever thought possible, says
the Lord.
.... Now to Him
who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think,
according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by
Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen....
Ephesians 3:20-21
"BE READY AND WILLING TO GO WITH THE FLOW OF MY
SPIRIT"
Watch
for your circumstances to take an unexpected turn, and be ready and willing to
go with the flow of My Spirit. This will take unusual focus and concentration
on your part. Quiet your mind and emotions and move into the realm of
discernment as you listen to My still small voice. Do not be afraid to yield to
course corrections. Yes, even embrace these opportunities, for they will work
to your ultimate benefit, says the Lord. Romans 8:28 And we know that all
things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the
called according to His purpose.
"YOU WILL HAVE BREAKTHROUGH AND REJOICE IN THE
PROGRESSION OF VICTORY"
Beloved,
I am bringing correction to a specific course that began three years ago, which
has been a transitional time in which you have had to make an extreme effort to
stay in the divine flow of My purposes for you. Many times the battle became so
fierce that you would have lost heart unless you had seen the goodness of the
Lord in the land of the living [Psalm 27:13]. You have been in the Valley of
Weeping. I have seen your tears and have been your only help in times of
trouble. Now I have opened a door of hope where you will have breakthrough and
rejoice in the progression of victory. I am giving you new strength for the
journey before you, says the Lord.
.... I will
punish her For the days of the Baals to which she burned incense. She decked
herself with her earrings and jewelry, and went after her lovers; but Me she
forgot," says the LORD. Therefore, behold, I will allure her, will bring
her into the wilderness, and speak comfort to her. I will give her her
vineyards from there, And the Valley of Achor [trouble] as a door of hope; She
shall sing there, As in the days of her youth, As in the day when she came up
from the land of Egypt.
Hosea 2:13-15
"COME UNDER MY CANOPY OF OPTIMUM FAVOR BY
FAITH"
Come
under My canopy of optimum favor by faith. Release everything in the past that
has kept you from moving in the blessing flow, for certainly the oppression of
the past can be an anchor that will impede your progress. The doors are wide
open for you to enter into a new phase of triumph. Go through deliberately and
without restraint. Rise up in confidence with the assurance that you can trust
Me to bring you by the way of knowledge, wisdom and victory, says the Lord.
.... To me, who
am less than the least of all the saints, this grace was given, that I should
preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ, and to make all
see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the ages
has been hidden in God who created all things through Jesus Christ; to the
intent that now the manifold wisdom of God might be made known by the church to
the principalities and powers in the heavenly places, according to the eternal
purpose which He accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord, in whom we have
boldness and access with confidence through faith in Him....
Ephesians 3:8-13
"SET A WATCH FOR THE LIES OF THE DEVIL THAT
OPEN A DOOR TO MEMORIES THAT RE-ESTABLISH A FOUNDATION FOR FEAR AND
REJECTION"
Beloved,
you must guard against exhaustion in this season. It will come from a variety
of attacks by the enemy aimed at draining your energy. Set a watch for the lies
of the devil that open a door to memories that re-establish a foundation for
fear or rejection. If you entertain this work of the enemy against you through
believing the lies, it will sap not only your physical strength and stamina,
but will also diminish your mental acuity, your emotional stability and your
spiritual strength. Rise up and defeat this enemy of your soul by resisting him
vehemently, says the Lord.
.... Finally, my
brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might....
Ephesians 6:10
*****
THE DAYS AHEAD
[CONCLUSION]
WE NEED TO BE ELEVATED IN OUR THINKING
Up
until this time there has been much fleshy striving - and much going on where
Satan is concerned in the church, but the Father - through a holy and faithful
people - is about to drive Satan and His forces out of the midst of all those
who truly love Him [the Father], and from that place of true spiritual
environment the daily "increase" in the Glorious Church on every
level will be almost too hard to comprehend. In light of ALL these things it is
clear then that we need to be elevated in our thinking - and NEVER base it [our
thinking] upon what has happened in the past or what we "think" might
happen in the future. The Father is revealing His plan to those who are
faithful and He is going to empower them to walk in it with, again, a pin-point
accuracy.
GRACE - KINGDOM
The
"inner chamber" is the place of perfect empowerment! What does that
mean? It means that, as one enters into the secret place of Gods presence on a
daily basis, it does not matter what one is called to, they will be perfectly
empowered, in any given moment, to do or say whatever they need to do or say -
by the grace of God [which is His divine empowerment]. We are a Church that
will operate in "great grace" in this last of the last hour and,
thus, we will be a Church that has a burning revelation of that word. We will
also be a Church that has a burning revelation of the word "Kingdom"
- and what that truly means in Christ! Grace and Kingdom will no longer be
words that are "bandied about" loosely - while not being lived out
according to the most holy purpose of the Father.
A "SIGN" THAT THE WORLD CAN EASILY
DISREGARD
The
world needs to see a Church that walks continually above hypocrisy [dishonesty
- duplicity]. Any child of God who remains in bondage to the "spirit of
the world" is a vessel of hypocrisy - going somewhere to happen. They do
not have a revelation of the truth in their heart and, thus, EVERYTHING they do
and aspire to is for themselves - and NOT for the glory of God. If a child of
God is found living after their "own" desires then they become
walking hypocrites, and they become a "sign" that the world can
easily disregard - as far as true spiritual matters go! The world will not be
able to disregard a Glorious Church though, and in these days the Father is
going to bring every last person walking the face of the earth to the point of
decision - through a holy people who perfectly represent Him. Some will make
the wrong choice with eyes "wide open", but many will come into not
only the New Birth, but the baptism of the Holy Spirit, and the baptism in holy
fire! From this place they shall enter into the fullness of Kingdom-living to
spend the rest of their days living wholly for the Lord Jesus Christ. This is
the reality of the Father's plan for this final hour - and we must be ready to
do our part!
NOW
THE PLAN OF GOD FOR THIS FINAL HOUR SHALL COME TO THE FOREFRONT - AND IT IS A
GOOD ONE: IT IS HIMSELF!
In
this last of the last hour there shall be the release of an anointing of a
total and absolute consecration in the midst of those who truly love God. This
anointing is real and we shall become a people who are literally
"driven" [that is a good thing] by the Holy Spirit with an intensity
that this world has never seen before - on a corporate level in the Church. It
will be the continual release of a perfect love and the perfect manifestation
of the Father's presence and power in the earth. This is where our mind-set
must be in the days ahead - as the Glorious Church. The church at large has
played around long enough. There have been multiplied "plans" and
"programs" in the decades past. Now the plan of God for this final
hour shall come to the forefront - and it is a good one. It is
"Himself" entering into the midst of His people!
THEY WILL MOVE WITH A PIN-POINT ACCURACY - BASED
UPON THE REVELATION KNOWLEDGE ALREADY ABIDING IN THEIR HEART
In
these days there shall be a supernatural release of the Spirit of wisdom and
revelation in the inner man of all those whose heart is wholly given to God. It
is from the place of an abiding revelation of the will and heart of the Father
that the child shall continually know what they need to know in any given
moment. It is also from this position that many "glorious
connections" shall be established in the Body of Christ throughout the
earth. Why? Because the individual believer has a "revelation" of
what they are supposed to be doing - and where they are supposed to be doing
it. In this place of rest there is NO striving through the mind of the flesh
and, thus, there is no "mental ascension" to any element of God's
Word [Will]. In other words, people will not be attempting to try and bring
people together or "attempt" to build the Church by their own
strength and understanding, rather they will move with a pin-point accuracy -
based upon the revelation knowledge already abiding in their heart.
ONE SHALL COME TO KNOW THE DEEPEST THOUGHTS AND INTENTIONS
OF THE FATHER'S HEART - AND ALSO THE PERFECTION OF HIS CHARACTER AND GREAT LOVE
TOWARDS THEM
Another
aspect of this exponential increase in revelation knowledge shall be that one
shall come to know the deepest thoughts and intentions of the Father's heart,
and also the perfection of His character and great love towards them. This
alone shall cause [empower] one to transcend any and every scheme of the Evil
One, and shall produce a "divine restoration" in whatever area is
needed. This fact alone shall do great harm to Satan and his schemes throughout
the earth - for he shall no longer have any ground to work from in the midst of
those who truly love God - those who have been restored perfectly to the place
of abiding in an absolute faith, working through a perfect love.
HOLINESS IS THE KEY WORD FOR THE HOUR!
Holiness
is the key word for the hour! The main concern of all those who truly love God
- those who truly desire to serve Him [glorify Him to the greatest degree in
all that they do and say] is faith, love, obedience - manifesting in holiness.
It is from this proper spiritual [heart] positioning that ALL true doctrine
springs forth. All false doctrine is rooted and grounded in rebellion, and the
seemingly endless error that is coming forth from many pulpits is causing great
havoc in the church. But the Father is gathering those who truly love Him, and
in THESE days we shall once again be able to distinguish those who truly serve
Him and those who do not - those who truly love Him and those who do not!
May the Father
bless you - and may you enter into the fullness of all that He has called you
to in our remaining time in this dispensation. May He be glorified to the
greatest degree in all that you do, and may all those who cross your path in
"the days ahead" experience the Father's "greatest
blessing" [empowerment] in their lives and ministries - because of your
faithfullness and obedience.
All my love in the Anointed One
and His Anointing
