JESUS:

+       Every one of My people must learn that EVERY provision has been made for them to walk this earth in the same manner I did - in EVERY way. Even in the parts of My Body that are "recognized" as more spiritual than others, there remains, in many cases, the desire to adhere to the five physical senses as their final authority as to whether or not a thing is of Me. I long for My sheep to listen first to My voice [the voice of My Spirit] that they might be led by Me in ALL things. But in order for this to happen there must first be made a true and pure commitment to the Father's Will [the Word] - without which, many shall be led into destruction and ruin by the Evil One and his forces. For if one's foundation is not built on the rock of "revealed knowledge" THEN, indeed, when the rain descends and the floods come and the winds blow and burst forth against them, they shall fall; and that fall shall be thorough and complete! For the Evil One will stop at nothing in his vile attacks against My beloved ones UNLESS they remain [abide] in covenant with Me by exercising their free will continually to obey the Will [Word] of the Father. Every last one of those who call themselves Mine must realize that ALL of their provision in all things is found in Me [the Word of God], and if one chooses to remain entangled in sin and, thus, allow themselves to be lured and drawn by the spirit of the world, manifestations that are not of Me shall surely happen in their lives - by their "own" choice [Galatians 3:13]!

the father:

        All traces of the "sin-consciousness", that has been allowed to remain in the hearts of many of My children, must, and shall, be removed in these days. For the hour is late and the Truth must be revealed in His fullness, to the masses in this last hour. Let it be known that ANY manifestation of the flesh [which includes traditions and the doctrines of men and demons] - and, indeed, any word or action that has proceeded forth from the mind of man [the flesh] rather than My heart, shall reap My judgement in this hour [1 Peter 4:14]. I am grieved deeply when I hear My beloved children talk of their inferiority and poverty, in the "name of righteousness". What kind of Father do they think I am, and what caused them to think that way in the first place? These are serious questions, and every one of My children must seek and know of these things by My Spirit and, thus, enter into the perfect liberty that is the spontaneous fruit of a revelation of My Heart and Person [faithfulness; goodness, mercy; kindness; longsuffering; unfailing love; etc]. For it is THEN that the Greater One within them [1 John 4:4] shall emerge, and both expose and remove every seed of self-desire and rebellion in their heart - thus creating a heart that will not give the Evil One an opportunity to move against them - or use them in any way for his vile schemes. For did not I not say in My Word that My Spirit Himself would bear witness with their spirit that they are My children, and if My children, heirs also, joint-heirs with Jesus [Romans 8:14-17]? My children must put themselves in a position wherein they will come to the "full realization" [by My Word and by My Spirit] that the spiritual realm is more real than the temporal realm; for until they do, those things that they discern with their five physical senses shall remain more real to them than Me.
