EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

                                                             ["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]

                                                                                    [february 13th 2009]


Vision:  I saw a deer in headlights on a "highway" at night. The deer was blinded by the headlights - and was "frozen" in place, through fear.
        
The Father spoke to me and said,

+       "The deer represents those of My children who [through the maintaining of fear and self-desire in their life] have remained on the "broad path" that leads to destruction [Matthew 7:13-14]. The fact that it was "at night" represents the darkness of the world [Isaiah 60:2] - and the great danger therein. The "headlights" represent [counterfeit] "light" that was not "friendly" ["Take heed that the light that is in you be not darkness" - Luke 11:35]. The fact that the deer was "frozen" in place represents the fact that many of My precious children are bound by fear and pride [which causes spiritual blindness] and, thus, they are not able to "move" - even though there is clearly great and imminent danger right in front of them. The alternative to this wrong positioning is a deep and thorough repentance in the "inner chamber" [the secret place of My presence] - leading [and empowering] one to enter onto the "highway of holiness" [the narrow path] [Isaiah 35:8-10]. For it is from this "true" spiritual positioning alone wherein My children will enter into their true Kingdom-position - and the fullness of true Kingdom-service that is its spontaneous by-product".
