EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]

[JUly 1st 2007]

+ Never underestimate the "force of love".

+ If one of My children "maintains" any ground of fear in their lives - to any degree - then to that very same degree they will hinder the "outflow" of the anointing abiding within them; and thus, to the degree that one maintains "selfishness" it is to that degree that they "do harm" [whether they are "conscious" of it or not] to all those who cross their path - for there is NO love in fear and selfishness.

+ I expose [reveal] whatever is "wrong" in My church first to My holy apostles and prophets in order that they might declare My words - first to the principalities and powers, and then to the hearts of the people, after a time of "intercession" in their behalf.

+ To the degree that one of My children has a revelation of the fact that there is "no good" in the "flesh" [Romans 7:18], it is to that degree that they "allow" My love to be continually shed abroad in their heart to a greater degree.

[JUly 2nd 2007]

+ Revelation knowledge is an enemy to "sense-knowledge" and self-desire - for it is through the five physical senses and ungodly desire that all of Satan's schemes orginate.

+ There is no faith [love] in "fleshly control".

+ Be still - and "know" that I am God.

+ Without My children putting themselves in the perfect position to gain a continually deeper revelation of the fact [truth] that there is no "good" [righteousness] in the "flesh" then to a degree they shall remain in a state of "self-deception".

+ There is no "good" [righteousness] in the "flesh". Therefore, for one to lean upon their own understanding is to commit an act of unrighteousness.

[JUly 3rd 2007]

+ Every one of My children has the right to do what they "desire" to do. But they do not have the right to do what they desire to do - apart from Me - and call it "true service".

+ It is always the root of "self-desire" that causes one to set their heart on the "increase" of blessing [Psalm 62:10b].

+ Let My children never forget that the "flesh" [old nature] is ever motivated and influenced by pride, death and darkness.

+ "Every" aspect of the carnal, fleshly, worldly life is motivated by "self-desire" [self-agenda]. Every aspect of the true Christian life [and Kingdom-living] is motivated by love and righteousness.

+ None of My children should desire to venture out into the "fullness of ministry" apart from Christ [the Anointed One and His Anointing] being "all in all" in their life [Ephesians 1:23; Ephesians 3:16-21].

[JUly 4th 2007]


+ "Profanity" is not just words - but profane [unwholesome] words [Ephesians 4:29] are always the "vehicle" by which a profane [unholy] existence is revealed.

"profane" - to treat [something sacred] with irreverence or abuse; to put to an unworthy or degrading use;

+ "Self-denial" is both the "prerequisite" and the "catalyst" to a perfect obedience.

+ One must practice "self-denial" at all times otherwise the ground of "unrighteous leaven" shall rise up and begin to "dominate" their entire walk.

+ If one does not abide in "diligence" then they shall surely be found abiding in "negligence".

+ Perfect love is an "absolute" love. Perfect faith is an "absolute" faith.

[JUly 5th 2007]

+ If there is any ground of self-desire [self-agenda] "maintained" by any one of My children then it shall surely lead them into the place wherein they will "mentally ascend" to My will for their life and ministry - and, thus, they will take a position far below the "Kingdom-position" that I have ordained for them.

+ There are many of My children who are still sowing bountifully to the flesh and sparingly to the Spirit! It is My will for every one of My children to sow bountifully to the Spirit that they might reap the superabundant life that is theirs in Christ - while refusing to sow to the "flesh" at all times.

+ I did not tell My people to fix their eyes on their "bank account"! I told them to keep their eyes fixed on Jesus [My Word -Will]. If one fixes their eyes upon their "bank account" then they shall surely "sow sparingly" in all things - for it is the same "spirit" [the spirit of fear - the spirit of poverty] that motivates both.

+ Every one of My children should be "maintaining" an all out quest for My "best" in every aspect of their lives.

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

[JUly 6th 2007]

+ Fear is the catalyst to death and darkness the way that faith is the catalyst to the manifestation of the "law[s] of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus in ones life and ministry [Romans 8:1-2].

+ There is no greater power on earth than the power of prayer! For the root and source of all "true" prayer is love - and there is no greater power than the power of My love!

+ Tell My people "never" to put the "counterfeit" of [a "mental ascension" to] My Word [Will] above a revelation of My Word. For great is the darkness that shall consume those who continue to move and speak apart from My Spirit in this final hour - but great is the light [revelation] that shall "flood" the heart that is "wholly given" to Me.

+ "All" fleshly activity is "unprofitable" [John 6:63].

+ WORLDLY CYCLE:   DISOBEDIENCE  ->  SELF-DESIRE  ->  SELF-INDULGENCE  ->  LACK  ->  DISOBEDIENCE

+ KINGDOM CYCLE: OBEDIENCE  ->  GODLY DESIRE  ->  DILIGENCE  ->  SUPERABUNDANCE  ->  OBEDIENCE

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

[JUly 7th 2007]

+ There is no such thing as a "good time" to lean upon one's own understanding. There is an "absoluteness" of My truth and wisdom to be both found and experienced in every moment. This is the way of the Kingdom.

+ If one walks in "fear" then it is certain that they shall "minister" fear [darkness] to all who cross their path and, in the same way, if one walks in love [faith - obedience] then it is certain that they shall minister love [life - light] to all who cross their path.

+ If My children are not diligently seeking the "necessary" revelation [divine Wisdom] for the fulfillment of My Will in "any" given situation then it is certain that they are selfishly looking after the fulfilling of their own desires [agenda] - through the continual practice of leaning upon their own understanding. Tell My children to always remember that if I am not "allowed" to direct their paths then they shall "allow" Satan to direct their paths.

+ Sin is not without its cost [consequences]. Faith [obedience] is not without its reward [Romans 14:23b].

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]

[JUly 8th 2007]

+ One can "forget" [cover over] anything [including revelation] if they begin to keep their eyes "fixed" on themselves.

+ Many of My children do not realize that when they "cling" to their money they allow Satan "entrance" into their affairs - financial and otherwise.

+ Those called to leadership [servanthood] in the Church in this last hour cannot be walking around motivated [influenced] by "sense knowledge" [the five physical senses]. They must be found "abiding" in a revelation of My Word [Will] at all times.

+ My children can learn through their obedience or their disobedience. How much better to learn through "abiding" in a perfect obedience - from faith to faith, and glory to glory.

+ Do you want to know why so few find the "narrow gate" [Matthew 7:7-8, 13-14]? So few find it because the prerequisite to truly finding something is to seek it with one's "whole" heart.

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]

[JUly 9th 2007]

+ There is a "holy intolerance", and an intolerance that is rooted and grounded in self-exaltation [pride and self-righteousness].

+ My people must understand that walking by faith and walking by revelation are one and the same thing.

+ There is no "corporate" aspect of true ministry apart from, first, an individual obedience on the part of all those who are involved.

+ A "ministry" is simply a "remnant" of My Body called together and set apart [aside] for a specific task or purpose[s].

+ The first and main characteristic of one being "transformed" continually by the "renewing" of their mind is that they will no longer lean upon their own understanding. Therefore, as one abides in My Word their "thought-life" shall be a spontaneous product of the "mind of Christ". Failure to abide in My Word shall allow the Evil One to inject "thoughts" [lies] that shall supercede the "mind of Christ" in one's thinking until such a time as that one is back in perfect fellowship with Me. From this one can see clearly that the spirit-man must be kept in the place of a "continual" dominance over the "flesh" [soul and body] in order that the "divine impulses" rising up out of the spirit [inner man] continually supercede the mind of the flesh.

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]

[JUly 10th 2007]

+ As you do unto others that is exactly how you do unto Me.

+ As one grows spiritually, the final attempt or manifestation of any remaining "ground of self-desire" is always "mental ascension" to their consecration. That is, they lean upon their own understanding, and thus they formulate their "own" version of what I truly require. I call each and every one of My children to abide in perfect fellowship with Me in order that they might walk from "revelation to revelation" - thus avoiding entirely the pitfall of mental ascension [self-dependence and self-effort] as they carry out My perfect plan for their life and ministry.

+ It is the "flesh" that I can deal with easily in those who have truly given their heart to Me but the rebellious "heart" - the evil heart of unbelief, presumption and self-dependence - is a different story. For such a one readily opens themselves to the mind of Satan, and thus he is able to build vast "strongholds" in their life - even to the point wherein they "believe" they are abiding in "perfect" obedience to My Word [Will] - when in reality they are not! It is only a deep and abiding perfect intercession [love] on their behalf by My holy bondservants and handmaidens that can cause these "captives" to be set free.

+ Rebellion is pride and "unbelief" in its strongest expression.

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]

[JUly 11th 2007]

+ If one is not "abiding" in a "spirit of thanksgiving" [peace and joy are its chief fruit] then it is certain that they are not entirely in My will for their life and ministry.

+ There are many in "leadership" who want no part in My "true" blessing and prosperity because the acquirement of My "true" blessing and prosperity requires a "constant" self-denial on their part.

+ Many of My children have both the "eyes" to see and the "ears" to hear but they will not see and they will not hear because of their continued maintenance of self-desire [self-agenda].

+ True "humility" is manifested in a total and absolute dependence upon My Word and the "unction" of My Spirit - in any given moment.

+ All "true" prophecy must be received without "any" regard for "self-desire" [self-agenda] on the part of the "hearer". For any "mental ascension" on their part will surely lead that one in the wrong direction, and open the door to great spiritual darkness in this most critical hour. In the Kingdom, all things must be discerned in and through the power of My Spirit [the Spirit of wisdom and revelation] - without exception!

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]

[JUly 12th 2007]

+ The root motivation of one's acting [leaning] upon their own understanding is to receive the "full credit" for the preceding action [John 5:30; John 7:18].

+ Where did My children get the "idea" that there is any "divine faith" in the "flesh"?

+ Satan will always attempt to use "circumstances" to lie to those who "focus" their attention upon "circumstances" instead of My Word. It is of the utmost importance for each and every one of My children to be found abiding in an absolute faith [perfect love - perfect obedience] and trust in this final hour.

+ Self-desire "maintained" deludes [deceives]. Godly desire "maintained" continually enlightens one as to the fullness of My Will for their life and ministry [true Kingdom-position].

"delude" - to mislead the mind or judgement [discernment] of;

+ Guard your "anointing" [heart] with all diligence.

+ A "clanging cymbal" draws attention to oneself [1 Corinthians 13:1].

*****

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]

[JUly 13th 2007]


+ There is no room for "self-desire" [the desire for anything or anyone apart from My Will] in a spotless and unblemished Church [Ephesians 5:25-27].

+ Self-desire [self-exaltation] is the root and ground from which "every" religious spirit both "builds" and "maintains" its "strongholds".

+ In this last hour My children are going to be "consumed" by godly desire or "consumed" by self-desire. As the conflict of the "kingdoms" escalates in this season each and every one of My children shall be brought to the point of "absolute decision" - as to their true allegiance [the Kingdom or the world; My Will or self-will; the fullness of destiny [Kingdom-position] or a falling far short of the Glory that is theirs in Christ] [Joshua 24:14-15].

+ THE DIVINE REQUIREMENT: ...."YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR STRENGTH, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND; AND YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF".... [Luke 10:27]

+ The root of all false prophecy [both the giving and the receiving of] is found in the ground of seeking the favour [acceptance] of flesh and blood [the fear of man]. The root of all "true" prophecy [both the giving and receiving of] is found in one seeking My highest will - in any given situation. Therefore, from this, one can see clearly that those who continually guard their heart with all diligence - thus maintaining a pure heart before Me - abide in the "Spirit of truth", and those who in their failure to humble themselves and draw near to Me - a negligence caused by rebelliousness and self-desire - are held captive by the "spirit of error".

+ Self-desire "maintained" [fuelled by a continual reliance upon one's own understanding] blinds the eyes and hardens the heart.

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

[JUly 14th 2007]

+ Never fear anything that proceeds forth out of the mouth [mind] of the Deceived One!

+ Self-exaltation is at the root of all words spoken in a "spirit of condemnation" or a "spirit of accusation".

+ Self-desire can manifest itself in many ways - and every last one of them is "dangerous".

+ I have called you, My beloved ones, to be a vessels of absolute Truth in this final hour.

+ If one allows themselves to become hardened in their heart through the "maintenance" of self-desire then they shall not be able to discern the difference between My Spirit [the Spirit of Love] and the "spirit of Jezebel" [a spirit of self-exaltation, control and manipulation].

+ Apply yourself to "diligence" in this most critical and glorious hour.

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]

[JUly 15th 2007]

+ False humility is, in reality, a "mask" that hides a heart that is given to a certain degree of self-desire [self-agenda]. True humility is the product of a heart that is wholly given to Me - and whose sole dependence is upon My Word.

+ One cannot preach the "Cross" unless one lives the life of the "Cross" [obedience unto the denial of the self-life]!

+ Unforgiveness is like a cancer [unrighteous leaven],  and unless it is deeply and thoroughly repented of it will, ultimately, infiltrate [consume] one's entire being.

+ Do not let Truth [and a revelation thereof] be a stranger in this hour.

+ The Spirit of forgiveness [which is released by faith] supercedes the spirit of unforgiveness.

*****

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]

[JUly 16th 2007]

+ How can one exercise an "absolute faith" when their heart [conscience] is not clean before Me?

+ There are many who minister death, darkness and error in the name of "love". Let each and every one of My children hearken only to the voice of My Spirit concerning the ministries that they partake of in this hour.

+ My wisdom [the revelation of My Will], spoken under the anointing will never "sound" or "feel" right to those who maintain "any" degree of self-desire [self-agenda] [Galatians 5:17].

+ If any one of My children "maintain" any element of a "sin-consciousness" in their life and ministry then it is certain that they are believing a lie[s].

+ One's spirit-man must continually remain in dominance over their soul and body if they are to "abide" in the fullness of ministry [Kingdom-position].

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

[JUly 17th 2007]


+ Division [unholy separation] and strife are the Devil's game.

+ I have called My children to love one another - and that includes even those walking in "foolishness". But I did not call My children to follow - to any degree - after anyone who is walking apart from "revelation knowledge".

+ If one "maintains" unforgiveness then eventually they shall "seek revenge" [self-vindication and self-justification] - even though they may "consciously" believe that they hold no unforgiveness.

+ The "sons of disobedience" includes all those who have wilfully aligned themselves with the "spirit of anti-Christ" - their root motivation being the perpetuation of their own self-desire [Ephesians 5:1-11].

+ Everything about the "spirit of anti-Christ" promotes "self".

+ Those who are afraid of the Truth [due to sin and unrighteous motivation] love "lies" - and, indeed, run from the light [John 3:20-21].

+ The fruit of all true ministry is, ultimately, holiness - both in the one ministering, and in the one[s] being ministered to.

[JUly 18th 2007]

+ If "I" tell [reveal to] My people that they can "do it" then they can do it!

+ I do not send My holy apostles and prophets to reveal My perfect will - in any given situation - to those who have absolutely no intention in their heart of doing it [obeying Me].

+ Unless My children keep the "revelation" that they have received from Me "fresh" [through daily fellowship with Me in the "inner chamber"] then they shall "slip back" into darkness [confusion, lack of clarity] to a degree until a deep and thorough repentance is forthcoming - a repentance that always translates into perfectly obeying the command to guard their heart with all diligence continually [Proverbs 4:23].

+ Selfishness and pride cannot "walk" apart from selfishness and pride! For the "flesh" cannot walk apart from the "mind of the flesh". But truly I say to you, the spirit-man cannot - and will not - walk apart from My Spirit and, thus, one can see clearly the importance of keeping their spirit [inner man] in dominance over their soul and body.

+ To trust in one's own understanding is to "mistrust" Me [Proverbs 3:5-7].

[JUly 19th 2007]

+ If one "maintains" a fear of what others think then they shall surely "block" their own entrance into the "fullness" of ministry.

+ I am not the "author of confusion". I am the author of "clarity".

+ My children must "never" allow themselves to be moved or directed by "any" word that is rooted and grounded in a "spirit of self-justification". For any word spoken under the spirit of self-justification is "always" rooted and grounded in the fear of what "man" thinks rather than what "I" think.

+ If one is "believing" then they shall "do" [corresponding words and actions of faith and obedience], and if one is "doing" whatever it is that I have required them to do, in any given moment, then they shall be found to be "believing" [exercising an absolute faith] in My sight.

+ Apart from Christ [the Anointed One and His Anointing] My children can do nothing except further their own "plan" [Satan's highest purpose for their death and destruction]! "With" Christ [the Anointed One and His Anointing] they shall do nothing but further My plan for the establishment of the True Church, and My Kingdom in the earth [John 15:5].

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]

[JUly 20th 2007]

+ In this last hour, Satan has thrown everything he can at every one of My children in order to keep them "affixed", in some way, to the "self-life" [soul-life]. But, as always, not only has he "failed" to stop those whose hearts are "wholly given" from growing spiritually, but even those of My children who have "held part back" from Me - to some degree - are "now" crying out to Me to bring them to the end of themselves, and "soon" they shall join ranks with those who have gone on before them in perfect obedience. And truly I say to you, they, as one [in one accord], shall immediately turn upon Satan and his forces with such force and with such a "vengeance" that he and all of his evil forces shall be "driven out" in stark terror from before them in this hour as My Glorious Church begins to advance into the fullness of Her destiny!

+ If one's soul or body are in "any" way in a position of dominance over one's spirit-man then it is certain that Satan is controlling them to a certain degree [through fear and disobedience]. And, thus, even though "spiritual impulses" continually rise up from deep within that one [by the power of My Spirit], because they are not in "control" of their will - having allowed the Evil One to hold them captive - they do not have the power to "act" on the aforementioned "spiritual impulses". It is only as a "deep and thorough" repentance is forthcoming and, thus, their spirit-man is once again given its "proper" position "above" [over] the soul and body that they shall be enabled [empowered] to abide in a perfect obedience - having gained back "control" over their will, and exercising that control to come into a "perfect agreement" with My will for their life and ministry.

+ In many cases My people's "thinking" is right where the Devil wants it to be.

+ In any given moment My children are either looking through "their" eyes or "My" eyes.

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]

[JUly 21st 2007]

+ As My holy apostles and prophets minister My Word in this last hour it shall surely be confirmed in one of two ways. In the lives of those who hearken to that "word" My great and awesome power shall confirm that word with great signs and wonders, and in the lives of those who "refuse" to hearken to the words of My holy apostles and prophets concerning them their "rebellion" shall be "confirmed" by the spirits of death and darkness! How much better for one to have their actions confirmed by "life" and light rather than "death" and darkness.

+ Any word spoken by My children not spoken in the light of the revealed knowledge of My Word and the unction of My Spirit ministers "death" and causes those they are in contact with - in that moment - to "touch" death [darkness]! And,  in like manner, every word spoken in the light of the revealed knowledge of My will and the unction of My Spirit causes all those they come in contact with to "touch" life [light].

+ The speaking of an "unwholesome" word "violates" the "law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus" - the "law" [principle] that governs "every" Kingdom-principle including the "law of love".

+ In the "world" people fill their days with empty chatter and "casual conversation". But in My Kingdom and in My Church I "command" My children to speak only such a word as is good for edification according to the need of the moment that it may give [impart] grace to those who hear [Ephesians 4:29].

+ As My children "abide" in My Word I shall bring them to the place where they are "radically conscious" of every word that proceeds out of their mouth.

+ One cannot "elevate" a fellow Christian if they are operating on the same level.

+ "Complaining" opens the door of one's life to Satan and his schemes [1 Corinthians 10:5-12; Philippians 2:14].

+ Many create a "void" in their life by their failure to "abide" in perfect fellowship with Me, and then turn around and "attempt" to fill that void themselves through much presumption and religious activity.

+ "Traditions of men" and the "doctrines of devils" are a "cancer" to the Body of Christ!

+ It shall soon become "evident" which of My children are "seeing" with the eyes of their faith, and which ones are seeing through the eyes of "sense-knowledge".

+ "Good intentions" are not a "Kingdom-principle".

+ "Self-desire "clouds" the heart of the "intercessor" [prevents a perfect intercession].

+ "Dispel" demonic activity!

"dispel" - drive away; scatter; disperse by force;

+ If one finds themselves "begging" Me then it is certain that they have allowed themselves to be held captive by a "spirit of unbelief".

+ The spontaneous by-product of practicing My presence is to be found practicing self-denial. The spontaneous by-product of practicing self-denial is to be found "practicing My presence".

+ This final generation of My church shall be the first to "abide" in the "fullness" of the "divine requirement" [Luke 10:27].

+ If something is "harmful" in any way to one's spiritual health then it will most certainly harm [have a negative effect upon] one's "mental" health and "physical" health as well.

+ Knowledge "must" be "tempered" by love.

"temper" - to bring to the proper consistency; to bring to a required hardness and elasticity by heating and suddenly cooling [refining];

+ When one is striving for "perfection" [to be righteously motivated in all things] then one cannot settle for imperfection [unrighteous motivation; self-desire] [Matthew 5:48].

+ "Dismantle" Satan's schemes!

"dismantle" - to strip [lay bare]; to raze; to take apart;

[JUly 25th 2007]

+ All failure to exercise faith [love and obedience] in the face of Satan and his schemes [both "non-resistance" to and ignorance of] has its root in fear and unbelief.

+ " Lack" is a direct by-product [fruit] of selfishness [self-desire and self-indulgence].

"lack" - deficiency or complete absence of something; to be wanting or deficient;

+ One should never allow themselves to lose sight of the "seeds" that they have sown in righteousness. For they shall surely come to the "fullness of fruition" - as that one maintains a "constant" faith and patience [perfect obedience] until the "fullness of time".

"constant" - long continuing [if necessary]; recurring; persistent; persevering; unchanging; a steadfast faithfulness in purpose;

+ My "Blessings" are for empowerment, and financial wealth is for the establishment of My Covenant [and Kingdom] in the earth.

+ There is no room for the "fullness" of My blessing in a self-indulgent lifestyle.

+ Love never produces an "unholy" division or "strife".

[JUly 26th 2007]

+ Being "touched" by the Evil One and being "influenced" by the Evil One are one and the same thing [1 John 5:18-19].

+ Stubbornness and obstinacy [hard-heartedness] are two manifestations of the "spirit of rebellion".

+ If one allows their heart to be hardened to any degree towards Me then they shall soon lose the "power to discern" between that which is of Me and that which is not, and they shall surely allow the Evil One to deceive them into calling that which is righteous "unrighteous", and that which is unrighteous "righteous".

+ The revelation knowledge that I bless My children with must be continually "activated"! How does one "continually activate" the revealed knowledge that they have received throughout the years? They continue to meditate in My Word day and night, and diligently bring "every" thought captive to the exact or true knowledge abiding within them.

+ There is a "power" released when one "acts" in perfect obedience [love].

[JUly 27th 2007]


+ Every scheme and every wile of the Evil One is aimed towards this one thing: darkness - corruption - death manifesting in the midst of My people - both individually and corporately.

+ My children are NEVER what Satan says they are - or might be. They are what I have "said" they are - in Christ.

+ If My children are not bringing "every" thought captive to a revealed knowledge of My Word [Will] then they shall surely be found bringing "every thought captive to their five physical senses in a spirit of fear and unbelief.

+ If one holds out "any" hope for anything that is not in My will for their life and ministry [self-desire and self-agenda] then they shall eventually have to deny "outrightly" any aspect of My Will that "interferes" with "their" plans.

+ Unforgivness is a deadly thing!

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

[JUly 28th 2007]

+ Many of My children are "nonchalant" in their effort to ensure that each and every one of their words and actions correspond perfectly to the exercising of an absolute faith [perfect love - perfect obedience].

"nonchalant" - marked by or exhibiting a lack of interest or excitement; casually indifferent;

+ One only has to remain "ignorant" of My Word [Will] until such a time wherein they realize their ignorance! If one chooses to maintain a "wilful" ignorance then it is certain that they shall surely be held captive by a "spirit of darkness", and thus that which they deem a "knowledge" of the Truth is, in reality, a lie and deception.

+ If one is not taking the necessary steps to "allow" Me to deal with any ground of fear within them then it is certain that they are - consciously or unconsciously - "maintaining" that ground of fear [2 Timothy 1:7].

+ I have called the "last wave" of My holy apostles and prophets [in every nation] to take a clear and concise revelation of the "local Church" to My people in every nation.

+ The "flesh" is "never" going to respect [honor] My Word [Will] - for it has not the capacity within to do so.

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]

[JUly 29th 2007]


+ If one is going to walk about "fearing" the Truth [a revelation of My Will - both personally and corporately] then they have no choice but to believe a lie.

+ If My children "choose" not to hearken to the words that I have spoken through My holy apostles and prophets then they shall "surely" rob themselves of the tremendous blessings that I have for them in this hour. For if one denies the authority in Christ I have given My holy apostles and prophets - and the absolute truth[s] that I have spoken through them - they will block the "transfer" of the "anointing" [revelation] that I have placed upon and within My holy bondservants and handmaidens [for the "greatest eternal benefit" of My people] and, thus, they will render themselves "powerless" against the onslaught of the Evil One to destroy their life and ministry - in this most critical season of warfare that they are called to.

+ Revelation "sustains" one both in their present circumstances and, in their pursuit of further revelation - with a view to entering into, and fulfilling, the fullness of their precious destiny, in Christ.

+ There is a distinct difference between "spending" [consuming] and "giving".

+ It is a "spirit of mental ascension" that continually attempts to make My Word a "vague generality"! I am a God of "exactness", and I call each one of My children to abide in that place wherein they are continually exercising a "pinpoint accuracy" in their faith. As one is faithful to keep their spirit-man in dominance over their soul and body then it is certain that the "Spirit of wisdom and revelation" shall guide them and enlighten them regardless of any attempt the Evil One - in his futility - comes against them with, in order to keep them apart from a "clear" revelation of My Word [Will] for their life and ministry.

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]

[JUly 30th 2007]

+ A constant and continual diligent practice of "self-denial" shall always cause My life and light and love to be constantly and continually "poured out" upon all those that that one comes into contact with. This will always produce various and divers manifestations - according to the state of the heart that My "pure" vessel encounters.

+ It is time for the "spirit of mental ascent" - that many of My children have allowed themselves to be held captive by - to be "driven out" from the midst of My people. The "spirit of mental ascent" is the counterfeit operation of Satan and his forces to keep My children in a position wherein they are not only devoid of the necessary revelation they need to enter into the fullness of their "Kingdom-position" - but also have no desire to seek it [the necessary revelation knowledge].

+ There is no temporal or eternal benefit in the works of the "flesh" [John 6:63].

+ The wilful failure to forgive "negates" the "active working" of the precious Blood of Jesus in one's life.

+ To the degree that one's heart is set on "any" element of self-desire it is to that degree that their heart is apart from [not one with] Me.

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]

[JUly 31st 2007]

+ To the degree that My children reverence Me it is to that degree that they will "respect" [revere] the words that I speak through My holy bondservants and handmaidens concerning My vision and plan for a Glorious Church in this final hour.

+ Every scheme of  Satan activated through one operating in a "spirit of false prophecy" is rooted and grounded in one's desire to exalt "themselves" [appear spiritual], and it "always" seeks the approval of flesh and blood without "any" regard whatsoever for My "approval" [John 12:43] - or My "actual" Will for the one being ministered to. The origin of every false prophecy [personal and otherwise] is found in the old nature [and the mind of Satan], and it "ministers" to the flesh [soulish gratification - self-desire] of the one being ministered to.

+ If one "maintains" any element of self-desire in their daily life and ministry then they become an "easy prey" for any "spirit of false prophecy" assigned against them by the Evil One [both giving and receiving].

+ The "assignment" of the "spirit of false prophecy" is always aimed at moving the "hearer" farther and farther away from the "narrow path" of perfect obedience. If it is "allowed" to fulfil its assignment then it shall ultimately result in the "destruction" [corruption] of the life and the ministry of the one under attack.

+ When the spirit-man is kept in dominance over the soul and body - through a continual guarding of one's heart with all diligence - "compassion" shall be "able" to manifest "Himself" at will. Always remember My beloved ones: compassion is not a "feeling" alone - it is a Person.

+ True compassion [Love] releases the fullness of the anointing abiding within, and always meets the deepest need[s] of the people - in any given moment [Matthew 14:14].
