EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

                                                            ["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]

                                                                                   [DECEMBER 31ST 2008]


+       "Double-mindedness" [or a half doubt and half "belief" in My Word], always "gravitates" toward an "absolute" darkness. It is only a heart that seeks to be "fully enlightened" [to abide in divine wisdom] that can continually avoid the snares of the Evil One.

+       For My children - My "called out ones" - to develop a close relationship with Me, there needs to be an "initial" separation from all "carnal" [emotional] attachments; for unless My children have put aside "all" of their "idols", they will never come into the spiritual "positioning" [ascension - abiding] that will empower and enable them to minister the truth in love to all who have crossed - and who will cross - their path.

+       If My children are truly trusting Me and depending upon Me for their "finances" then they will obey the instructions I give to them - regardless of what it "looks like" or "feels like".  For sometimes an instruction that looks like it is "fleshly" is of Me, and sometimes that which looks like it is of Me is fleshly. Truly I say to you, only those whose hearts are "wholly given" to Me shall be able to discern between the two in this most critical hour!
