EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]

[march 19th 2010]


VISION:   I saw a treadmill [like the ones used for walking and running] and one working furiously to keep up. Even though they desired to get off of the treadmill they could not. Suddenly I saw that person's feet rise up above the treadmill so that its continuous motion no longer had any affect on them.

The Father spoke to me and said:

The "treadmill" is representitive of the "busyness" that many of My children have fallen into in this hour - a busyness that is the spontaneous result of their striving in their "own" strength [and discernment] in an attempt to be a pleasing child to Me. The fact that they were "working furiously" to keep up refers to the "wearing down" tactics of the Enemy that continually keep them in a weary state and, thus, in a place of non-resistance to his schemes - schemes that are designed to keep them apart from their true "Kingdom-position", in Christ. The fact that there was an expressed desire in their heart to get off of the treadmill refers to the impulses [impressions] from My Spirit that are continually rising up in their inner man [spirit] - and which produce "godly desire". The fact that even though in their heart they knew something was wrong and desired to get off of the treadmill but could not is representitive of the fact that there still remained an element [ground] of disobedience [procrastination; laziness; fear of failure etc.] in their life that they have never allowed Me [the Holy Spirit] to remove through the deepest work of the Cross. The fact that the person's feet were "suddenly" above the treadmill so that its continuous motion no longer had any affect on them is representitive of that one making a "quality decision" [a decision from which there is NO turning back] to enter into the fullness of the perfect liberty that is theirs, in Christ. The moment they began to access My Grace THEN, "suddenly", they were lifted up above their previous circumstances [rut], and into their proper spiritual positioning seated at My right hand in the heavenly places with Christ - a place wherein Satan's schemes against them are rendered ineffective.

In this hour, I am calling each and every one who truly loves Me to forsake [let go] of anything or anyone they have been holding to that has opened the door to bondage in any form, and begin to acknowledge Me [continually access My Grace] in ALL of their ways - through an absolute faith and trust. For as they are faithful to do this they will not only enter into perfect liberty they will also begin to experience a peace and superabundant joy that will supernaturally empower them - right through to the end of the age.
