EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER
["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]
[november 1st 2007]
+ The
one who does not love abides in darkness. Therefore, one can see clearly, the
folly of choosing to walk apart from love. If My children persist in their
desire to walk outside love [the love that is continually shed abroad in the
hearts of those who truly love Me] - they shall indeed be found abiding in fear
and darkness, and all that proceeds from them shall be representative of the
nature of Satan rather than My nature [1 John 2:10-11].
+ Love takes no offense
because love understands "all" things.
+ Now is the time, My
beloved ones, to cast aside "all" which has its root in the
"sin-consciousness". Let all pre-conceived notions and thoughts as to
what I have called each of you to be, pass away; and take as your only reality,
the "revealed" knowledge of My Will. For in this last hour I am
raising up many who will walk in the "fullness" of all that I have
for them, and they shall surely walk in a degree of power that has never before
been seen in the earth [both individually and corporately] as My Body. It is
indeed time for the world to see the unlimited power of Almighty God. It is
time for My sons and daughters to go forth in the power of My anointing to
devastate the works of Satan. For too long the "reality" of many of
My people has been found in that which is "temporal" [seen and
experienced through the five physical senses - soul], but truly I say to you
that day is at an end! As My children exercise a continual faith in, and love
for, Me [My Will] in this hour they shall surely experience an ever-deepening
revelation of the mysteries of the Kingdom, and an "eternal
perspective" that shall continually move them fervently on towards the end
goal - the fullness of their precious destiny in Christ, and the establishment
of a spotless and unblemished Church in the earth.
+ Through an
"abiding" faith and love and obedience in My holy vessels shall the
captives be set free, and in this hour there shall be many who receive their
deliverance from every bondage [and entrance into perfect liberty], and come
forth to serve Me with their "whole heart". Now is a time for
non-compromise in ALL that you do. Bow your knee to no man, but rather know, by
faith, that you are empowered in all that you do by the anointing that abides
within you. Do not, for even a moment, consider those things that proceed forth
from the mind of man, but consider only those things that I have revealed to
your heart. Do not fear what others think of you. Respect [honor] only My
wishes and the desires of My heart, and you shall have success in ALL that you
set your hand to - in obedience to Me.
+ I desire great
boldness in My children, a boldness so great that it will cause fear [a holy
reverence and conviction] to rise up in the hearts of those who have forsaken
Me [Acts
4:29-31]. For it is certain that the Evil One attempts to bring all of My
children to a place wherein he can lure them into an "attitude" of
compromise and, thus, into an "abiding" fellowship with the world. In
this most critical hour, all those who "allow" themselves to be
deceived shall surely come to know that they have forsaken Me in order to seek
after their own glory - continually seeking to please flesh and blood for their
own gain, and before Me. Speak My words, moment to moment, knowing that in all
I give you to speak, Satan shall be defeated in the lives of those who will
both receive you, and "hear" your voice.

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER
["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]
[november 2nd 2007]
+ My
children must learn to speak by revelation and not by "reflex". The
reflex I refer to, of course, being that of a heart which is not wholly given
and, thus, is filled with unrighteous intentions and impure motivations.
Because of this, they speak as unto men and not as unto Me. They seek to voice
their "opinions" rather than My truth. They seek to appease the mind
[soul] of men rather than be partakers of the Mind of Christ. Is it not
written, "a man of understanding keeps silent [Proverbs 11:12b]?" Truly I
say to you, I will be silent when I will be silent and I will speak when I will
speak; but as My ministers go forth "in My name" let there be no
deviation from the revealed knowledge of My Word, and the unction of My Spirit!
Indeed those who - through their fellowship with the world and its ways - seek
the approval of men and not My approval, who testify to the "glory of
man" and not My glory - shall have their words reduced to ashes, and their
darkened wisdom and their rebelliousness shall be laid bare by the fire of My
Spirit in this hour.
Are there not
those who argue that it is impossible for everyone in the Church to
"agree"? What foolishness! Am I not, the Father, in agreement with
the Son and the Holy Spirit? Is not the Holy Spirit in agreement with the
Father and the Son? And is not the Son in perfect agreement with the Father and
the Holy Spirit at all times? Are not harmony and agreement and one mind the
chief characteristic of My Kingdom? The answer is yes! From these things one
can see clearly that in obeying the law of love perfectly, they shall always be
in perfect harmony with Me; and when two obey the law of love perfectly then
they shall not only both be in harmony with Me but with each other. Therefore,
all true agreement and harmony [one accord] is a product of an "abiding
love" in the hearts of My children, and where there is disharmony and
division and strife in the midst of My people it is for one reason - and one
reason alone - and that is: their hearts are not "wholly given" to
Me!
There are many
of My children who "outwardly" appear to do great and wonderful works
in My name and, indeed, they have prided themselves in these works [Matthew 7:21-23]! In the
beginning they walked with Me to a degree until the "approval" and
"praises" of men swayed them apart from the narrow path of perfect
obedience. They lost the desire to forsake "all" to follow Me, and
began to bring every thought captive to pleasing men rather than pleasing Me. But
behold My true ministers! Vessels of fire and the Spirit of judgement and
burning. Vessels that shall purify and cleanse My Church through the power of
their "spoken" words, and the Anointing that shall flow in
"torrents" through them, upon all flesh. With My "holy
searchlight" I shall expose everything that is apart from Me, and many
shall be shocked that the "works" which they thought were so pleasing
to Me, were not of Me at all. But rather, were part of the devious schemes of
the Evil One to divide, through the exaltation of "self" in men and
women.
Many have
assumed a position of "false authority" in My Church! Is it not I who
"ordain" those who will lead My Church home? Have I not the right to
speak through whom I choose in the midst of My "congregations"?
Indeed, it is this hardness of heart in My ministers, who have lost their First
Love, that has hindered the receiving and the acceptance of My beloved apostles
and prophets. But I declare, even now, that there shall be no more "hindrances",
for I wish to voice the deepest thoughts and intentions of My heart to all of
My people, and in doing so, they shall surely be placed in the position wherein
they must choose their "greatest" allegiance.
It is time to
put to an end to the "plans" of men and devils in the midst of My
people. I shall send forth My bondservants and handmaidens into the midst of
the "fray in this hour, and they shall be found abiding in a
"holy intolerance" of ALL that is apart from Christ, and they shall
have great victory at every turn against the forces of darkness, and the
"power of My love shall become so evident in and amongst the people that
the chains of bondage shall freely drop from all whose first desire is their
deliverance from "all" that is apart from Me [Acts 2:17-21]!

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER
["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]
[november 3rd 2007]
+ How
can My children avoid having sin in their lives if they do not "seek"
to abide in love and, thus, "allow" love to abide in them?
+ The "answer of
one's mind" is part of the "counsel of the wicked" [one] [Psalm 1:1].
+ Those men and women
who have been held captive by Satan to do his will [2 Timothy 2:26] - because of
their "lust for power" - are not always those who "chant
incantations" and offer "human sacrifices", but it is certain
that in their quest for power they are, in some way, "wholly aligned"
with the powers of darkness, and their minds are darkened and their hearts
hardened and, thus, they are oblivious to My Kingdom, and the "one true
plan" that I have for a Glorious Church - and for "all" mankind [2 Peter 3:9b]!
+ Many of My children
pride themselves on their "spiritual" walk yet, in reality, they are
immersed in darkness. For they have not been constant in their fellowship with
Me and, thus, they are "deluded" into believing that that which they
do and say is pleasing to Me. This is a dangerous time, My beloved ones! It is
indeed a time for perfect obedience in every aspect of life and ministry.
+ The "answer of
the mind" is Satan's highest will for the destruction of My people.
Therefore, I call each and every one of My children to walk by revelation and
not by "sight" [2 Corinthians 10:5]. For it is only in this way that Satan
and his forces will have no inroads into their thought-life [mind], will or
emotions.
*****
EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER
["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]
[november 4th 2007]
+ As
My children have, as their only heart-motivation, the desire to see the
fullness of My will done in all of the things that I have called them to - both
individually and corporately, they shall surely be found operating in a great
degree of harmony [one accord], and they shall surely be perfectly empowered to
accomplish ALL of My will for their life and ministry. For these things to come
to pass in the lives of My children, all "opinions" and preconceived
notions [mental ascensions] of man must be put aside [2 Corinthians
10:5].
"opinion" - a conclusion or
judgement [thought or mind-set] held with confidence, but falling short of
absolute truth;
"mental ascension" - the pursuit of the knowledge of God and
His Word in the strength of one's own understanding;
+ The
only similarity between the way that I call My people to live and the way those
"in the world" live, is the fact that they both exist in bodies of
flesh and blood while in the earth. For I desire My people to live by My Word,
and by My Word alone. It is certain that while My children walk in the earth,
they will indeed be "affected" by time and space. But truly I say to
you this day, it is the amount of unbelief that remains within them that will
govern just how much affect [influence] that "time and space" shall
have upon them - in the hindering of their faith. As My children "maintain"
an eternal perspective [Kingdom-consciousness] in this hour they will begin to
experience the "timelessness" and the "limitlessness" of My
Kingdom - for truly it is My desire for all those who are wholly given to Me to
walk non-stop supernaturally until the task [Matthew 24:14] is finished.
JESUS:
+ When
I said to the man whose son was possessed by an evil spirit, "All things
are possible to him who will believe" and he directly answered, "I do
believe help my unbelief," I was then enabled to meet the needs of this
man. For you must remember that he was well acquainted with the physical
manifestation of this evil spirit, but had no experience of the power of God to
deliver. But he heard the words that I spoke to him, and although he was
weighted heavily with what he both saw and felt, he confessed all that was in
his heart and asked My help in removing what he knew might hinder the
deliverance of his son [Mark 9:14-27]. As My sheep will put aside any reliance
on a strength or conviction that is not of Me, and will continually cast their
care upon Me, there will be no more "fleshly striving" to walk in
faith and, indeed, they will surely enter into the fullness of My rest. The
confession of "I believe, help me to be separated from any unbelief that
is in me" allows the Holy Spirit to continually illumine the hearts of My
people - thereby dispersing any darkness therein. And in this place of
continual illumination "every" thought will be brought captive by My
faithful ones to the things of God - without any regard [anxiety] for outward
circumstances.

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER
["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]
[november 5th 2007]
+ All
things not done "in My name" are done in the "name" of
self. My true works [those done in My name, and by the revelation and
empowerment of the Holy Spirit] can never be discerned solely by outward
appearances, but only on a Spirit to spirit basis. Unless one is willing to do
ALL of My will they shall never have the assurance that what either they [or
others] are doing, is in My will [John 7:17-18].
+ My children should be
"trodding" not "plodding" [Malachi 4:3]!
"trod"
-
to step or walk on; trample;
"plod" - to walk heavily or laboriously;
+ If
one seeks to please Me first and foremost in all things, then they shall not
necessarily please "flesh and blood". If one seeks to please
flesh and blood first and foremost then they can "never" please Me [Galatians 1:10].
+ Laziness and
slothfulness are always a product of fear [fear of failure, fear of criticism,
etc].
+ The spirit of a man
must dictate his "desires" not the soul or the body. For if one's
desires are dictated by the soul and body [the flesh], they shall be
"unrighteous" in nature, and based only on the gratification of
oneself - without any regard for My will. On the other hand, the
"desires" impressed upon the spirit of a man by the Holy Spirit
[through prayer and constant fellowship with Me] shall be "righteous"
in nature [John 15:7], and as these desires are continually acted upon - in other
words, as one orders their entire life in and through these righteous desires
[goals] - they shall attain to the fullness of their calling, and shall
constantly be, both in My sight and in the sight of flesh and blood, a most
holy "sign and wonder".

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER
["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]
[november 6th 2007]
+ To
the degree that one retains selfishness, it is to that degree that they are
"unwilling" to suffer for righteousness' sake.
+ Much of the
"suffering for righteousness' sake" that I have called you to, My
beloved ones, is the call for you to walk in love continually - regardless of
whether that love is ever returned or not. Whether or not the love one
exercises in faith and obedience towards "flesh and blood" is ever
returned or not it is certain that it will reap a great harvest for the
Kingdom. It is also certain, that they will gain a continually deeper
revelation of My love for them - and My "unfading" Glory shall rest
upon them continually as they walk on the course that I have set out before
them [1
Peter 2:20b; 1 Peter 3:13-16; 1 Peter 4:14; 1 Peter 5:4].
+ To
"maintain" any form of desire to be separated from My Word [Will] is
a "one way" ticket into fear and darkness [Hebrews 4:12].
+ To the degree that
one of My children "allows" themselves to be conformed to the world
[and its self-serving ways], it is to that degree that they shall deem the
"securing of money" as their highest goal and achievement [1Timothy 6:10-11].
*****
EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER
["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]
[november 7th 2007]
+ In
this hour, the desires of My children shall either be satisfied by Me in the
"scorched places" or they shall be "scorched" by Me in
"their" satisfied places [Isaiah 58:11a; Isaiah 43:1-3a]!
+ It is one thing to be
"intense" [fervent] in the doing of My will, and another to be
"tense". One initiates from My love that has been shed abroad in the
hearts of My children who place My Word first in their lives, and the other has
its root in fear. As My children come to the place where they have truly given
all to Me, they shall fully experience the "rest" that I have for
them [Isaiah
58:13-14], and while they shall continue forth in My will with a great
intensity, it shall be My love and peace that shall be seen upon them at all
times. Intensity and a "holy" intolerance are inextricably linked.
How important it is for My children to be truly separated in their hearts [and
in their minds] from the influences of the "temporal realm". For, in
this last hour, "any" desire to perceive Me with their five physical
senses [mental ascension to My Will and My Word] will surely lead them into
darkness and error. I communicate with My children through My Spirit, and I am
only able to reveal My heart to them in their inner man [spirit] - through
"revelation". For too long many of My children have based their
knowledge of Me primarily on the "preconceived notions" of their
"unrenewed" mind. If one truly desires to know Me, they will indeed
forsake all to follow Me. For it is only in bringing their EVERY thought
captive to My Word, and in guarding their hearts with ALL diligence, that
enables Me to reveal Myself to them to a continually greater degree with each
passing day.
+ Those who live in
fear have a preoccupation with death; those who live in love have a
preoccupation with life [1 John 4:18].
+ Every word of
unbelief spoken by My children is an "unconscious" expression by them
[although they should be conscious of it] that Jesus is "not" Lord!
Every word spoken that is apart from the "revealed" knowledge of My
Word [Will]] denies the power of the Blood of Jesus, and belittles the absolute
victory of My beloved Son at Calvary!
*****
EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER
["Reflections"
Of The Father's Heart]
[november 8th 2007]
+ It
is time for "all" of My children to stop their "false"
[unrighteous] judgements against their brothers and sisters! It is time for
them to stop speaking critical words of destruction [both towards themselves
and others], and begin to walk in the love that I have called them to walk in.
Have I not said, "Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you?"
Have I not said, "Love one another?" Have I not said, "Let NO
unwholesome word proceed from your mouth?" Truly I say to you, if My
children do not love Me with their "whole" heart, then neither will
they be able to love their brothers and sisters with their whole heart; and to
the degree they continue to push My Word aside, it is to that degree that they
will not be able to continue on in the love walk. Therefore, all of My children
must come to "abide" in My Word, that they might be found abiding in My
love, and have My love be found abiding in them. For in having My love shed
abroad in their heart, that love shall surely be poured forth upon all who
cross their path in this most critical hour.
It is an
abomination to Me to hear the words of death, fear and destruction against
others, proceed forth out of the mouths of many of My children. Indeed, in this
last hour, the deceitful tongue shall be removed from My Church [Zephaniah 3:13], and all
unrighteousness shall surely shut its mouth [Psalm 107:40-43]! For have I not
called My children to speak only wholesome words of edification, that the
Church might be built up and established in love? For too long many have
satisfied themselves by operating in a "false righteousness" which is
not of Me, and truly I say to you, they shall be brought low - for the
days of "misrepresentation" in My Church have come to an end! The
seeds of wickedness that have been planted and watered by "faith" in
the traditions and doctrines of men [mental ascensions and error] through the
centuries, have now come to "fruition", and all those who have
continually propagated darkness in the midst of My people shall, in this very
hour, reap the fullness of what they have sown in their pursuit of
"self-glory" [vaingloriousness]!
Just as the
seeds of wickedness have reached their harvest, so too have the seeds of love
and faith and light that are planted deep in the heart of all those who truly
love Me. I have sent forth My "angels" [messengers], and they shall
indeed gather out of My Church all of the stumbling blocks and those who commit
lawlessness [Matthew 13:40-43], and they shall surely reap their due reward. Many have
ignored the reality of My Word in this last hour, but truly I say to you, the
end of the "ages" is upon them, and all of the words that I have
spoken shall surely come to pass. You shall see in the coming days many great
and powerful confirmations of the words that I have just spoken.
JESUS:
Rejoice, My
beloved ones, for it has been given to you to "know" the deeper
things of the Kingdom. All of Heaven is rejoicing due to the nearness of My
return. But let it be clearly understood that I am coming TO My Church to dwell
in her midst before I come FOR My Church. For there must be a Glorious Church in
total manifestation in the earth in order to fulfill the words of My Father
and, indeed, to usher in the fullness of ALL that is written. In these days,
the love of the Father for His children, and His ardent desire to be reunited
with them in every way, shall be poured forth upon [and within] all those who
dwell in His presence - and because of this a joy that has never before been
known in the earth to such a great degree, shall encompass the hearts of all
those who walk in faith and obedience, and they shall indeed taste the very
atmosphere of Heaven itself right to the end of the Church age [dispensation] -
and on into Eternity!

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER
["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]
[november 9th 2007]
+ It
is the degree of rebellion in the heart of one that causes them to withstand
the conviction of My Spirit - and My judgements. To the degree that one of My
children has hardened their heart towards Me, it is to that degree they will
need to see "physical" evidence of their rebellion, and this is why,
in not hearkening to My voice, the voice of My Spirit, they shall find
themselves "strangers" to the Covenants of promise, and because of
this they shall be plundered by Satan and his forces at every turn. And to the
degree they "continue" to believe his lies above the revealed
knowledge of My Word it is to that degree they shall "allow"
themselves to perish. For is it not written that My people perish for lack of
knowledge [Hosea 4:6]? Those who have aligned themselves with Satan and, thus,
have refused the provision that I have made for them in My Christ [the Anointed
One and His Anointing], are already perishing. As My children draw near to Me,
and as they begin to abide in My Word and My Word in them, they shall surely
understand the thoughts and intentions of My heart - and the Way by which I
operate. Many areas of the church are “rife” with the corruption and decay and
death which comes from sowing to the old nature! Take no thought, My beloved
ones, for those who, in their ignorance, try to disprove the "living"
reality of My Word concerning "My" judgement of "My" people
[1
Peter 4:17]; for indeed no word of man shall ever remain "standing"
the presence of Almighty God!
“rife” – great in number or quantity;
+ As My delegated
authorities begin to place "all" of their dependence upon the anointing
that abides within them, they shall be able to move in and out and to and fro,
wherever I send them, and fit in perfectly wherever they go. For as all the
steps of My Church are ordered by Me, My handmaidens and bondservants shall
reach the point where they are not even "conscious" of their
relationships with one another. By this I mean that they shall know who is in
authority in any given situation, and they shall learn to "allow" the
Holy Spirit to speak and move as He so desires. There will be no fear of what
others think in My Glorious Church, but rather only a "spontaneous"
doing of My will in all things. There are many who still "allow"
themselves to be affected by their surroundings, and by the things that they
can perceive through their five physical senses, but in this last hour those
who truly desire to serve Me shall have to know the voice of My Spirit above
ALL other voices. For it is certain that some of the things that I shall do by
My great and awesome power will stagger the mind that is not renewed to My
thinking, and harden the heart of those who are not cleansed from all
defilement - spirit, soul and body [2 Corinthians 7:1]!

[november 10th 2007]
+ If
one approaches My Word with a view to attaining "knowledge" alone -
that attainment of knowledge being for the purpose of exalting themselves above
their brothers and sisters - then that one shall open themselves to "deception".
It is as one approaches My Word with a view to "obeying" it that will
cause their inner man to be "flooded" [filled] with light, and they
shall surely "possess" an abiding wisdom that is "far
above" the wisdom of the world. My children, let not the light that is in
you be darkness [Luke 11:35]!
+ Before one can
experience the fullness of the reality of the "no greater love" in
the [S]spirit, they must first experience the "reality" [gain a
revelation] of the "no greater selfishness" of the flesh [Romans 7:18].
+ My children must live
in the "now" or they are "doomed" to repeat the failures of
the past.
+ A "true"
Christian is one who "abides" in Christ [John 15:1-7].
"true"
-
faithful to fact or reality, not false; genuine; faithful, loyal, steadfast;
conforming to an existing standard type or pattern; exact;

+ All
"compromise" is rooted and grounded in the desire of one to set
themselves in "agreement" with that which is apart from My Word
[Will].
+ My people perish
before their "time" for one reason and one reason alone: a lack of
revelation knowledge of their Covenant with Me, in Christ [Hosea 4:6].
+ To the degree that My
ministers abide in perfect obedience it is to that degree that they will help
bring those who "cross their path" into the fullness of their
inheritance [Covenant] in Christ.
+ Every action of the
"flesh" carried out "in My name" is bound by a spirit of
deception [Matthew 7:21-23].
+ I require a
repentance of the heart - not of the mind [good intentions].

[revelation] one has the more "responsible" they are for walking in
all of it - all of the time.

[november 12th 2007]
+ The
spirit of fear [darkness] being spoken forth from the pulpit [which takes the
form of "threats"] in an effort to "elevate" My people does
not produce holiness in them but, rather, ALWAYS a deeper bondage to fear and
darkness - leading to the forsaking of intimate fellowship with Me, and a
stronger dependence upon one's own understanding and the "work[s]
ethic". Words spoken in fear misrepresent My true heart and character -
without exception - even though the doctrine may "sound" good. It is
only revelation knowledge of My true character and heart [love] that both
elevates and leads one into the place of an abiding holiness [1 Peter 2:9].
+ Love NEVER fails.
Faith NEVER fails. Obedience [acting on a revelation of My will in the unction
and empowerment of the Holy Spirit] NEVER fails.
+ An "unholy"
fear [a fear which is rooted in mistrust and unbelief] of not walking in My
counsel surely precludes one from walking in My counsel [a revelation of My
Will and wisdom].
+ Loneliness is rooted
in a spirit of idolatry.
+ Perfect obedience
ALWAYS simplifies things.
"threat" - a declaration
of an intention to inflict injury, pain or loss; an indication of impending
danger or harm; to compel through fear;

+ If
one does not "resist" [James 4:7-8a; 2 Corinthians 10:5] in a steadfast
faith and obedience to My Will in the [imperfect] environment they are
presently in [until such a time when I supernaturally remove them from it] then
they will be eventually begin to both take on - and be controlled by - the
negative characteristics of that environment, and all those in it.
+ Faith plus obedience
equals patience.
+ It is pride that
blinds.
+ Entering into
"divine order" [perfect obedience] precedes divine prosperity - and
divine order [perfect obedience] "maintains" the flow of My divine
prosperity in one's life and ministry.
+ The fullness of My
blessing[s] is found in the path of perfect obedience.
+ It is never too late
to obey.
+ If one continues to
exalt their relationship[s] with flesh and blood above their relationship with
Me then they leave the door wide open for the spirit of loneliness and other
tormenting spirits to enter in and establish a stronghold[s] in that one's
life. Freedom from loneliness is found only in right relationship with Me - on
a daily basis [2 Corinthians 3:17].
+ Faith is moved
[activated] by the Word of God abiding within. Fear is moved [activated] by a
preoccupation of the mind, the will, the emotions and the body with
"outward" things or circumstances.

+ The
reason that it is so important that My children continually guard their hearts
with all diligence is that the failure to do so will always cause them to fall
short of My Best - not only in their own lives but also in the matter of imparting
My Best into the lives of all those who cross their path.
+ Nothing hardens the
heart, and renders it insensitive more quickly to the voice of My Spirit, than
heart-fellowship with the world [Hebrews 3:12-4:2].
+ Whatever does not
have its source and root [origin] in love is sin - for it is certain that
faith "works" only through love [Romans 14:23b].
+ Many of My children
are walking around in a total ignorance [darkness] concerning the deeper things
[absolute truths - principles] of the Kingdom, and the desire of My heart for a
Glorious ["spotless and unblemished] Church. In light of ALL that is
theirs in Christ this is truly a "shocking" manifestation
[revelation]!
+ Divine faith works by
divine love. Natural faith [assurance] works by "natural" love [of

[november 15th 2007]
+ Any
element of the heart which speaks or accepts any defeat or failure - that is,
anything less than My perfect desire and will - is a product of a
"sin-consciousness" [an unworthiness-consciousness]. As My children
gain a deeper revelation of the power of the Blood of Jesus, they shall see
clearly that the provision has already been made for them to walk in "a
perfect state of heart" continually before Me, and out of that perfect
state of heart shall come the words that will put into motion and cause to come
to pass, at all times, those things that are in perfect accordance with the
thoughts and intentions of My heart [Matthew 12:34b-37].
In this last
hour "all" traces of the "sin-consciousness" shall be
removed from the hearts of those who truly love Me. No more shall the false
doctrine of "imperfection" in those who would serve Me, stand before
the consuming fire of My Spirit. For if one would deny the ability, that I have
given them, to walk in perfect obedience before Me, they deny My ability to
carry out My Word; for I have said, "You shall be holy as I am Holy",
and indeed I am watching over My Word to perform it [1 Peter 1:13-16;
Jeremiah 1:12]. Is it not also written, "Be perfect as your Heavenly Father
is perfect" [Matthew 5:48]? Indeed, through diligence, faith, love and obedience,
those who truly seek My face shall gain the revelation that they need to
accomplish "all" that they were created for, in Christ. Those who
would justify their "imperfection" and their incapability of walking
for more than a short time without sinning, are foolish, and they "openly
betray" their heart-desire to walk in rebellion, in order that they might
fulfill the lusts of their own desire!
Truly I say to
you it is only the forsaking of ALL things apart from Me, that will allow My
children to walk perfectly before Me. Is it not written that I judge not as man
judges, but that I judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart [1 Samuel 16:7b]? Truly I say to
you, it is as My children begin to see with My eyes, that they shall understand
My ways. For if they continue to view all things through their own darkened
understanding, they shall surely be caught in a snare; and confusion and
darkness shall encompass them on every side. For it is certain that those who
"refuse" to abide in love [in their pursuit of self-desire] shall
indeed dwell in darkness, and fear shall become their master.

["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]
[november 16th 2007]
+ The
"perversion" of the "prosperity" message came when some of
My children began to receive "images" in their "MIND",
because of a continued "lust for other things" apart from My Will
[and the self-glory that is its fruit] and, thus, "allowed"
themselves to be influenced by demonic forces concerning what they deemed to be
true ministry ["grandiose" buildings, the "recruiting" of
disciples etc.] - rather than a "revelation" from My Spirit to their
spirit of the deepest thoughts and intentions of My heart. Any image [vision -
impression] received in the "mind" from these "forces" will
lead that one to seek first the fulfilment of these "images" [of
"grandeur"] through self-desire and self-agenda - rather than seeking
first the establishment of My Kingdom in righteousness and, thus, they remain
"self-oriented" and "mammon-oriented" rather than
"Kingdom-oriented" [Matthew 6:24,33].
I withhold no
good thing from those who walk uprightly before Me [Psalm 84:10-12] and indeed, as
My servants keep their priorities straight, I shall lay the true image [vision
- revelation] of My superabundant provision [all things necessary for the
carrying out of My will in superabundance, and which affect every aspect of
life in a "material world"], and plan for the establishment of the
Glorious Church.
It is only a
lack of trust in My Word that causes My children to suffer some form of lack as
they walk in the earth. Let "all" of My children cast down any
unbelief that they might be found "believing", and they shall see, in
this most glorious hour, the "fullness" of the true prosperity that
belongs to them, in Christ - spirit, soul, body and financially.
+ Sin brings guilt; the
Holy Spirit brings conviction with a view to repentance. Satan brings
accusation and condemnation with a view to controlling one and holding them in
bondage to a "sin-consciousness". The Holy Spirit brings a revelation
of the power of the precious Blood of Jesus [forgiveness] [1 John 1:9] - and who one TRULY
is, in Christ, that one might come to abide in a
"righteousness-consciousness".
+ Holding [maintaining]
unforgiveness against anyone constitutes one being an "enemy of the
Cross" [Philippians 3:17-21]!
"grandiose"
- producing an effect of grandeur; pretentiously grand; pompous;
"recruit" - the enlisting of people born out of a pursuit for
growth and influence [in one's own strength and understanding];
"constitutes" - to be the substance or elements of;

+ My
children are constantly in a state of "service". They are either
serving Me [godly desire] or serving themselves [self-desire and self-agenda] [Matthew 5:24,33].
+ In this final hour,
it is very important for every one of My children to have an acute awareness
and understanding of sin and its effects - as well as having an acute awareness
and understanding of obedience and its effects [Romans 6:16].
+ The very fact that
any one of My children would attempt to form a "board" [an
"organized" official body] of accountability made up of "flesh
and blood" as the "final authority", on any given matter, only
serves to reveal the fact that they lack a revelation concerning "accountability"
to Me first and foremost. It also reveals the fact that they still hold to the
"belief" that there is "some good" in the flesh's ability
to walk in My perfect will - or please Me in any way [Romans 7:18].
+ True prosperity is
ALWAYS the direct product of a heart "wholly given", and encompasses
the spirit, soul, body, finances, relationships and ministry of that one.
+ If one is faithful in
the handling of their money then they shall surely find every other aspect of
their faith-walk both "clearer" and "easier" [Isaiah 26:7].
+ I have called My holy
apostles and prophets to take the revelation of "authoritative
prayer" [prayers of proclamation] to My people.

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

[november 18th 2007]
+ There
are many who have "allowed" themselves to be held captive by Satan [2 Timothy 2:26] to
"keep" My people in darkness, and unless a deep and thorough
repentance is forthcoming their "evil works" shall be judged before
"all" - for they are "cross-grain" to My Word [Will] [Matthew 25:28-30]! I have called
My "ministers" to "elevate" My people continually at all
cost to themselves - their sole purpose being to lead My people into the
"fullness" of their inheritance in Christ - thus enabling them to
walk in and fulfil the fullness of the ministry [Kingdom-position] I have
called them to.
+ Many of those I have
called to "leadership" in My church have "allowed"
themselves to be held captive by the "fear of what others think", and
in their failure to repent of this "sin" they have
"allowed" Satan to surround them with men and women who are
"controlled" themselves by a "spirit of self-exaltation",
and whose only goal is to control and manipulate those in authority - for this
is the only thing that "satisfies" [only temporarily] all those
"driven" [compelled] by a self-exaltive spirit! It is time for
"order" to be restored in My church! For too long these self-exaltive
spirits have moved about freely in the midst of the five-fold ministry. But
truly I say to you, they shall be "driven out" as I
"unleash" My holy apostles and prophets upon them! Truly I say to
you, there shall be more than a few "tables turned" in the midst of
My congregations, and it is certain that those who "hold" to a fear
of what others think and, thus, live lives "inspired" by their five
physical senses shall be greatly offended! But truly I say to you, those ones
[who do not repent], and the evil spirits they have "allowed" to
control them shall depart into the "outer darkness" [the
"world" - Isaiah 60:2] for great light shall shine forth and
"all" darkness shall be removed from the midst of all those who truly
love Me - and there shall be a great rejoicing by all who remain! For I shall
reveal My Person to a continually greater degree in this hour - and in ways
that My people have not yet seen! Did I not state, "Truth must be revealed
in His absoluteness in this last hour?" Truly I say to you, My light shall
consume the darkness and My truth shall obliterate the lies and My perfect love
shall cast out "all" fear and My absolute life shall drive out
"every" trace of "death" - the final foe - in the midst of
My congregations and THEN I shall send them forth in one "final sweeping"
of the nations - each "church" in each individual nation for that
nation - and in a short time the "task" shall be completed and in
that moment I shall bring My beloved Church home [1 Corinthians 15:51-58] - and there
shall be a great and joyous celebration for seven glorious years [Revelation
19:7-9; Matthew 22:2-14].

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER
["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]
[november 19th 2007]
+ Always
remember, My beloved ones, that you owe nothing to any man but to love him [Romans 13:8], and the way that
you fulfill that obligation is to walk in the power of My Spirit and speak the
uncompromised truth in love at all times. And as you are obedient in these
things, you will surely do what is best for all who cross your path. Take no
thought for the "feelings" of men and women! For those whose minds
are not renewed by the power of My Word shall surely take "offense" at
those words which you speak to them; but those who are diligent in My Word, and
who have had their minds and their emotions renewed shall see clearly that you
are sent from Me - and you shall be treated accordingly. In not allowing
yourselves to be influenced by flesh and blood in any way, you shall surely
expose [either by your silence or by your words that I give you to speak] the
deepest thoughts and intentions of their heart, and they shall surely realize
and understand their need of Me in every facet of their life. The time has come
for all of My children to put aside all that is of the flesh in order that they
might walk [abide] in the power of My Spirit.
+ There is no problem,
there is no difficulty; there is no evil from which My children have not been
redeemed [Galatians 3:13]. For in My Word is found the provision to meet
"all" of the needs of every one of My children. The answer to every
question that could ever cross the mind of man is found in My Wisdom - for I
have left nothing out. Every facet, every minute detail of human
existence in this earth has been provided for under My Covenant of grace. This
is an "absolute revelation" that must burn within the hearts of each
one of My children. For in this last hour, if one chooses to separate
themselves from My Covenant, they shall surely suffer defeat at the hands of
Satan in the very area that they do not believe [have a revelation of] [Hosea 4:6a]. For in this
last hour it is only faith exercised in My Word that will empower My people to
overcome in the earth. It is not a "punishment" for My people to live
by faith, but rather a blessing of "unlimited capacity". As they
repent and turn from all wickedness [unrighteiousness], they shall begin to
experience the fullness of My life. Indeed, the time has come for My children,
to lay aside "all" dependence upon the "flesh", and submit
themselves completely to My Word - and My Word alone.

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER
["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]
[november 20th 2007]
+ This
is a time wherein My bondservants and handmaidens who have been faithful to Me
through these years of turmoil and strife and division in the midst of the
congregations [the church at large], shall be exalted; for the time wherein the
sinner "seems" to have "prospered" has come to an end! For
truly I say to you, there shall be such a great "influx" of demonic
activity in every place where there is "ground" given and, thus, the "destroyer"
shall come forth to destroy, the "thief" shall come forth to steal
and the "murderer" shall come forth to kill. Only those who have an
"active", overcoming faith abiding in their hearts [these things
being a product of godly diligence and obedience to My command to separate
themselves unto My Word and enter that place of "abiding" [John 15:1-11], apart from the
world [James 4:4]] - shall come through this time of attack and confrontation
by the Enemy [Hosea 8:1-3] "unscathed".
As I look out
upon the hearts of My children, I still see many who are
"content" to some degree to hold the reigns of their life, and truly
I say to you, this is a most dangerous thing! For Satan will surely take that
ground given and turn that one's heart against My true purposes and plans and,
in "allowing" themselves to be deceived, they shall surely, as they
continue on their "misguided path", run directly into the
"point" of the sword of My Spirit in the form of My beloved
handmaidens and bondservants speaking the Word that I give them to speak in that
hour of "confrontation". And many shall be "grievously"
convicted of their sin and their rebellion and many others shall begin to
perish - because in their heart they cannot conceive that they, "in
themselves", could ever be wrong [mistaken]. Such is the danger of the
darkness that pervades the nature of the flesh, and such is the
"seriousness" of the call to close and intimate fellowship with Me.
For indeed, without the "required" time in My presence - that is,
"all of the time" [abiding] - My children will surely be deceived and
be overcome by a "spirit of self-exaltation".
Have I not
spoken before of this "absolute judgement" upon My household [1Peter 4:17]? A time wherein
each man's work shall become evident so that even the deepest thoughts and
intentions and motivations of all who have "taken" My Name shall
become evident. Blessed is the one who trusts only in Me, for there is nothing
that can stop that one from accomplishing all that I have created them for -
and, in knowing this in their hearts, they shall go on to a most glorious path
and they shall be bright lights in the midst of this "crooked and
perverse" generation - a generation that causes My wrath and My fury to
rise up upon every remembrance of their existence!
Fear not My
beloved ones! For I am with you always, even to the end of the age. And this
IS, indeed, the end of the age. Hold fast! Continue to be faithful in the
"small things" [Luke 16:10] that I will surely bring forth ALL that I have prepared for
you. Take no pre-conceived notions or thoughts, only "abide", knowing
that I shall surely reveal to you the deepest thoughts and intentions of My
heart and show you My purposes and plans - purposes and plans that will astound
and confound the peoples of the earth. For they shall see My presence abiding
in [and resting upon] all those of My children who truly love Me - to such a
great degree that they will have no comparison from any of their past
experiences, "spiritual" or otherwise, and they shall clearly see
that Jesus is Lord of Lords and King of kings, whether they "choose"
to believe it or not! For I shall exalt the name of My beloved Son above
"all else" in this last hour, and the foolish plans of Satan, and all
those who choose to believe his lies above My truth [Word], shall crumble and
"evaporate" - regardless of how "omnipotent" they may have
"appeared" to be. I have sat back and waited for My perfect time to
"unleash" the fullness of My Spirit upon the earth, and truly I say
to you, I have prepared a selected and chosen" few to lead all those who
"truly" love Me, home.
Take heed of
these Words, for as the manifestation of My Glorious ["spotless and
unblemished"] Church [Ephesians 5:27] comes forth - boldly and triumphantly -
it shall be "non-stop supernaturally" for My faithful and obedient
ones until the "catching away" [of My true Church]. Go forth to where
I lead you, and proclaim boldly My absoluteness and the need for My children to
abide in My absolute Provision; for even now My mighty and glorious angels
stand ready, rank upon rank, to devastate all of the forces of darkness, and My
holy apostles and prophets stand ready- and in "perfect
position" to carry out My every Word of My command. For indeed Satan's
"day" is over, and he has exhausted every plan and scheme to divide,
and thus defeat, those who truly love Me, and now I shall build My true Church
through the "supernatural" power of My Spirit - and, indeed, that
same Spirit [the Spirit of love] shall abound in the hearts of My elect and
they shall be tremendous "signs and wonders" [both in word and
deed], and the fullness of My power shall "inundate" their every
word, and all the nations shall see My sons and daughters as they are in the
fullness of Christ and, many, in seeing the "true heritage" of My
children, shall DROP ALL to take their place with Me in My Kingdom.
"unscathed" - unharmed;
uninjured;

+ My
children's battle is not against "political correctness", nor
the vessels that carry its "perverse doctrine"! Their battle is with
the spirit of antichrist - the spirit of "self" exaltation working behind
them [the vessels] - and through them!
+ "All"
foolishness is predicated upon the denial, in some way, of My Word [Will].
"predicate" - to found or
base; to affirm as a quality or attribute of something;
+ In
many aspects of their Christian life "people" have remained the focal
point in the lives of many of My children.
"focal" - having as the
main focus;
+ My
holy apostles and prophets will be dealing with the pastors first, and not only
the "shepherds" but all delegated authorities in the midst of the
congregation. The overall congregations will be the "direct"
responsibility of the shepherds and teachers; yet in the coming days My holy
apostles and prophets shall be used powerfully to minister to the needs of the people
in order that they might be set free from any bondage or affliction which is
under the law of sin and death.
+ It is the
responsibility of My apostles and prophets to bring My people to the
"knowledge" of the fullness of their inheritance in Christ - that is,
the fullness of their salvation. It is their responsibility before Me to both
receive it and walk in it.
+ It is one thing to
sow "seeds" in obedience [spirit, soul, body and financially]. My
children must also exercise faith towards the perfect [maximum]
"harvest".

+ Many
of My children attempt to fight an invisible enemy [Satan] with physical
weapons. But truly I say to you, if one "knows" who the enemy is they
shall use whatever weapons are at their disposal to defeat him. Therefore, if
they consider their enemy to be anyone who stands in the way of
"their" progress and "their" self-glory [self-agenda], they
shall use "carnal weapons". But if they have a revelation of the fact
that Satan is the enemy, and that their "sole task" in this earth is
to tear down and destroy his strongholds [Acts 10:38], then they will use the spiritual
weapons that are at their disposal, in Christ. Those who seek their own
self-glory, in any way, will always use "carnal" weapons, and their
attack will always be directed towards flesh and blood. Those who seek only My
glory will always use spiritual weapons, and their attack will be directed
solely at Satan and his forces [2 Corinthians 10:3-4] - and NEVER flesh and blood [Ephesians 6:12].
+ It is as those who are placed in a
position of delegated authority continually "humble" themselves
before Me [trust and depend upon Me with an absolute trust and dependence],
that the multitudes shall follow. Therefore, I shall do a great work in the
hearts of all those who are called to the five-fold ministry in this final
hour. And, thus, their hearts shall be towards Me and they shall draw
near to Me, and they shall put aside the hardness of heart and the darkness
that has caused many of them to go astray. And because of their obedience [and
repentance], the uncompromised truth shall go forth as never before - and,
thus, shall My people be led into the fullness of their precious inheritance in
Christ in an "accelerated" manner in this hour.
"accelerate" - to cause to act
or move faster; to hasten the natural or usual course of; to cause to happen
ahead of time;
+ I
have closed the door which no one shall open and I have opened a door which no
one shall close; and I shall send forth My apostles and prophets and they shall
deliver My Word to My people and they shall become a great and mighty host
moving forth as one to trample the strongholds of Satan [Revelation
3:8-13].

+ When
men and women attempt to create alliances of "assurance" in the flesh
[unholy connections] in order to pursue their own "agendas", they
bypass the provision I have made for "true unity" in the Spirit;
which is: each one of My children in the Body of Christ controlled and governed
by the Holy Spirit - through their obedience to the Head. Any "fleshly
reliance" upon one another is not good, for it proceeds from the heart of
one ruled by self-desire - as opposed to godly desire. When such an alliance is
made, a "false" security is established, based on an alliance made
with "flesh and blood" rather than an alliance made with Me [the
Covenant] to be obedient to Me in all things - serving Me alone, and desiring
to receive correction and instruction [wisdom and counsel] from Me [My Spirit]
alone. The fear of man is a snare to one desiring to follow Me. It breeds false
security, and a misplacing of one's trust onto men rather than onto My Word. It
seems a noble and helpful gesture in the flesh to make such alliances, but, in
reality, it only uncovers an undealt-with fear and mistrust that
"encourages" reliance on flesh and blood rather than Me.
"reliance"
-
an absolute trust or confidence in [or upon] someone or something;
If one has
set their heart on the pursuit of their "own" agenda it shall result
in that one operating in their "own" strength and understanding
[soulish force - control] in an attempt to cause all those who cross their path
to conform in such a way as to serve "their" purposes. This produces
an "environment" that is not conducive to a reverence of Me
[and My Will]; and standards tend to be reduced to those of "social
etiquette" and "men pleasing" [the fear of man] in their midst
[soulish fellowship], rather than speaking My truth in love - with each one
doing what "they" deem right [doing what serves their purpose best],
rather than truly seeking My face. True unity in the bond of love begins with
one entering into intimate fellowship with Me in the "inner chamber",
and THEN the proper corporate fellowship with others in the Body shall be
provided, and "divine" connections established - to My greatest
glory.

+ For
any of My children to be a "respecter of persons" is for them to be
"men-pleasers", and not "God-pleasers" [Galatians 1:10].
+ All
"criticism" [unrighteous judgement] is the product of a
"self-righteousness".
+ If any one of My
children hold "flesh and blood" responsible - IN ANY WAY - for any
"unloving" act done to them then they are in a state of
unforgiveness.
+ All self-exaltation
has its root in fear [and pride]. Therefore, all those of My children who have
"allowed" themselves to be influenced by a "spirit of
self-exaltation" have within them "certain ground" from which
the spirit of fear is "allowed" to work. The scheme of the evil
spirits of self-exaltation is to provoke that one held by fear into speaking
words that exalt themselves above My Word [Will] and My people and, thus, they
become "unrighteous judges" of the people and the situations that
they address. The inaccurate and unholy words that they speak under the
influence of the spirit[s] of self-exaltation will always serve only to make
matters worse. For it is only as My children speak the words that "well
up" out of the abundance of a heart that is "wholly" given [Matthew
12:34b-37], in the Spirit of love and true humility [absolute faith and trust
in Me], that will effect change in the people, and the situations that they
address.

+ The
"relaxation" [divine rest] that I have for My people is one that sets
them on a course towards Me, and not away from Me. It has nothing whatsoever to
do with taking time out to go their "own" way, but rather to partake
of those things that will cause them to draw nearer to Me.
+ One of the
"highest" forms of self-exaltation is found in the desire to speak
apart from the unction of the Holy Spirit. It is because of the failure of many
of My children to "abide" in My Word [and, therefore, NOT speak words
that are in accordance with My Word [Will] at ALL times] that has caused both
"error and tradition" [false doctrine] to darken the hearts and minds
of many of My people. Truly I say to you, all shall be judged in this hour according
to the words that have proceeded forth from their mouth, and you shall surely
see each one's work become evident according to those words which they have
freely spoken [1 Corinthian 3:12-15]. Indeed, the words of both the righteous
and the unrighteous alike, shall come to pass at a "greatly accelerated
pace" in these days, thereby separating the children of life and the
children of death; the children of faith and the children of fear; the children
of Almighty God and the children of Satan. And while the world continues to
grovel in its darkness, I shall raise up many great and shining lights to
minister My truth to My people [Philippians 2:15]. Take no heed of those who pride
themselves in "worldly" wisdom, but rather keep your eyes
focused on Me. For the time has come for all of the words that I have spoken
concerning My [Glorious] Church to come to pass in the earth!
+ Each one of My
children are without "excuse" should they fail through their
"own" imperfection and ability. For I am not judging them for what
"they" do not do, but rather for what they do not let "Me"
enable [empower] them to do. It is ONLY love [obedience] that never fails.
+ There has been
serious abuse of authority in the church through those who have set themselves
against Me [My Word] in any way. For the deepest desire of their heart is to
seek after their own glory, and I shall show them to be exactly what they are,
and the end of their "activities" shall come swiftly. For indeed I
have spoken to them once, twice, even three times and they have not responded
in any way to to the conviction of My Spirit; and so they shall reap the
fullness of all that they have sown to, and they shall no longer be a hindrance
to the building of My true Church.

+ Although
one is able to "feel" fear, fear is not a feeling [emotion] but a
spiritual force; and in like manner, although one is able to "feel"
faith, faith is not a feeling, but is also a spiritual force". In
precisely the same way [divine] love is not a feeling [emotion] but the most
powerful force in the entire sphere of existence [Romans 8:37-39].
+ I shall remove My
presence [anointing] from those who continue to walk in the flesh [the power of
their "own" understanding]. In this hour, I shall unite all those who
worship Me in Spirit and in truth, and the "worldly" church shall see
that My hand is mightily upon My faithful and obedient ones. I shall unite My
"ministers of fire" as one, and from them shall My glory be poured
forth [in torrents] upon all flesh [John 7:38]. Because of the
faithfulness of many I shall move in great power - that the world may come to
know Me as I truly AM - and truly I say to you, great signs and wonders shall
follow ALL who serve Me from the position of a heart wholly given to My highest
purposes [Luke 10:27].
+ Fear not My children,
My anointed ones, for now is the time I have chosen to exalt you. For many
months you have looked neither to the left or the right, and in this I am well
pleased. The time has come, and now is, that the forces of evil shall be driven
back and, thus, many souls shall gain a revelation that I am the one, true God.
Many miracles shall be manifested in My name: the dead shall be raised, the
blind shall see and the lame shall walk. The masses shall see My power
manifested clearly and, yet, many who once served Me whole-heartedly will turn
their heart from Me - Satan having blinded them to carry out his will [2 Timothy 2:26]. And because of
the hardness of their hearts and because of the arrogant pride that burns
within them [a pride fuelled by their continual pursuit of self-desire] their eyes
shall be blinded, and they shall put you out from amongst them [John 16:2-4a]. They shall, in
their "own" wisdom, think that they do these things in My Name, but I
am not mocked; whatever a man sows, that he shall also reap. I will unite
[divinely connect] My true "ministers" [handmaidens and
bondservants], and I shall provide places [true spiritual environments] wherein
the people shall gather and hear My uncompromised Word preached. Great shall be
the manifestation of My love and power in their midst, for I have heard the
prayers of My children!

+ Listen
closely My beloved and faithful ones. I shall prosper you greatly in this most
glorious hour [spirit, soul, body and financially], and you shall both teach
and demonstrate "prosperity" [at all cost to yourself] to My people.
For I am grieved to a great degree with many of My children. I desire them to
have a superabundance in ALL things, yet they turn their face from Me. They
listen to the world concerning their finances - and yet the world [system] is
perishing. In these days, I am raising up "Third Day" [Hosea 6:1-3] ministries that
will be a mighty testimony to My Word concerning My divine prosperity. Each and
every last one of these ministries shall be built on My Word through faith and
revelation - that My people might see My face, and come to know Me as I desire
to be known by them.
+ My children,
you must separate yourselves from the world and its evil ways, for Satan seeks
to destroy My elect and will stop at nothing he has been "given"
[allowed]. Great victory is near, but in this hour Satan will unleash a barrage
of circumstances that will sway many from the path that I have set out for
them. But fear not, My obedient ones, for you shall walk triumphantly through
ALL of the snares of the Evil One, and My love and grace shall abound as I
exalt My faithful [trusting] and obedient ones in the face of
"seeming" disaster. Many of My children will cry out in their
rebellion and unrighteous pursuits, "Why have You forsaken me?",
when, in reality, it is they who have forsaken Me! Many will cry out to
me for the first time and repent of their sinful ways, but many others shall
harden their hearts against Me and blaspheme Me with every breath. Woe to these
ones, for they shall lead many into ruin. They will cry out "Peace, Peace,
we are the road to peace"; yet there is no peace. They will say, "We
have the answer", yet they do not have the answer! And because of the
hardness of their hearts, they have been held captive by the Evil One to do his
will and, thus, My Word will be pushed aside in their churches and all of their
answers will be sought in the wisdom of the world. They say in their hearts,
"We have much time", but truly I say to you, I am coming soon - first
TO My Church, and then FOR My Church!
"disaster"
- sudden and crushing misfortune; an event causing great distress or
ruin;

+ How
it pleases Me when My children's love burns for Me - and for each other. For
then they become bright and shining lights to a world that is inhabited by
darkness. Truly, truly I say to you this day, that in this hour the world shall
know those who are truly Mine, by the love that they have for one another. For
in these last days, great manifestations of My love shall be poured forth upon
[and through] My children. Truly I say to you, that the days of darkness in My
church are at an end. I shall separate the chaff from the wheat [Matthew 3:10-12]. I shall shake
and I shall purify My people - for there are many who worship Me with their
lips, but their heart is far from Me. My church, up to this point, has allowed
herself to be infested by the "spirit of the world", and this is
truly an abomination in My sight! For evil men [and women] have been made to
sit in the high places - men and women whose hearts serve only the lusts of
their flesh. They worship Me in vain - holding fast to, and teaching as
doctrines, the precepts [mental ascensions] of men [Matthew 15:7-9]. Truly, truly, I
say to you this day, the hearts of men will be laid bare for all to see in
these days, and ALL will reap as to what they have sown. Those who have sown
according to My will - in joy and gladness and great reward [both in this age
and in the age to come], but to the sons of disobedience - confusion [darkness]
and a certain terrifying expectation of judgement, and the fury of a fire that
will consume [Hebrews 10:26-27]!
Take heed My
children that the light that is in you be not darkness [Luke 11:35]! For truly I say
to you this day, the darkness of men's hearts will be dispelled by the light of
My Word, as they seek My face; but woe to those who seek Me in vain [for their
own selfish purposes]. For truly I say to you, they shall not see My face, and
because they do not "know" Me [intimately] they shall persecute My
beloved ones. For the truth is not in them, and they view all things with the eyes
of their flesh and in the power of their "own" understanding. But to
My handmaidens and bondservants has been given the freedom [perfect liberty]
that comes only from the knowledge [revelation] of the truth, in order that
they might lead My children into the fullness of the land [inheritance] that I
have prepared for them. Consecrate yourselves, My beloved ones, for truly I say
to you, I will perform great signs and wonders amongst you, and the peoples
shall know that you are Mine and they shall see that My [unfading] Glory [1 Peter 5:4] rests upon you.

[november 29th 2007]
+ True friendship [those I
have divinely connected] in the Body of Christ is an eternal bond - both forged
and maintained by My love, alone [Proverbs 17:17a].
+ One's constant continual confession
of having already received the petition sought after in prayer - in other
words, continually calling those things which be not in the natural realm as
though they already were, will bring one's actions into line with their
confession in every way, and inevitably bring about the physical manifestation
of the blessing in the natural realm. This process "cannot fail" to
inherit the blessing! The key being to hold fast the confession of faith [in
spite of any adverse circumstances the Evil One attempts to create], and to
walk by faith and not by sight - "continually" bringing
every thought captive to a perfect obedience [revelation of My Will] [2 Corinthians
10:5].
+ In coming to the realization
[revelation] that Satan is a complete and abject failure, let him fail -
through the holding to a perfect love and obedience.
+ Many of My children are still
"giving to get". They have not, as yet, much revealed knowledge in
the area of My "divine prosperity" - and all that it encompasses.
Their eyes, because they have a tendency towards "money-mindedness",
are continually on the things of the world and how it affects them, rather than
the furthering of My Church and Kingdom. There is no true prosperity without
consecration. For if My children do not seek to consecrate [separate]
themselves unto Me, they have disobeyed My command to love Me with all of their
heart and, because of this, they leave themselves open to the lies and
deceptions of the Evil One. Truly I say to you, if one's eyes are not
"fixed" wholly upon Me THEN Satan will bring them into a state of
heart wherein the "love of money" will overpower their love of Me. I
say to you this day, that in this last hour My children will see My plan unfold
with ever-increasing clarity, and they will see very clearly that obedience to
My Word [Will] is their first and foremost responsibility. For it [faith and
obedience] encompasses every area of their life and prosperity in the Kingdom,
and it is certain that without obedience to My Will for their life and mnistry
they will be found in an area of servitude to the Evil One [2 Timothy 2:26]. In these most
glorious days, My Church shall begin to walk in the fullness of Her precious
inheritance, and many will come to the realization that what they had perceived
as being in My service was really being in service to their own selfish desires
- and the "unrighteous agendas" that are their spontaneous
by-product. As my holy fire [light] is poured out in the midst of My people in
this hour many will come to the realization that they have been held in an area
of deception by the Evil One, but they will repent and show themselves strong
in My name for the remainder of this dispensation - bringing much glory to Me
in the process.

+ Another
reason My children must guard their heart with ALL diligence [Proverbs 4:23] is that,
throughout their ministry, there will come across their path many different
people - each "exerting" [or attempting to exert in an unrighteous
motivation] a "force" upon them. Those who cross their path who love
Me will always, in some way, exert the force of love, or one of the other
Kingdom forces [faith, wisdom, peace, righteousness etc.]. As one's heart
remains pure [clean] before Me they will never exert any "negative
force" into the spiritual environment that I have established - that is
the force of fear and/or pride, out of which springs forth self-exaltation,
self-justification, hatred, unforgiveness, selfishness and unrighteousness etc.
"exert" - to put forth or
into action, as force or influence;
As
My handmaidens and bondservants go forth to minister, there are those who will
take "offense" at the words they speak in My name, and unless My
servants, through a "perfect obedience", remain under the
"umbrella" of My Covenant - allowing the "precious Blood"
to both cover and protect them from "all" outside forces - then they
shall, in some way, succumb to these negative pressures. But truly I say to
you, those who "abide" in the secret place of My Presence [the
"inner chamber"] shall not be "touched" in any way by the
Evil One [1 John 5:18-19].
Many of My children have
"allowed" Satan to deceive them through a lack of diligence on their
part in giving My Word [Will] preeminence and, thus, as they pray, they
"pray" unholy prayers in the name of self-agenda and division
and strife and hatred and discord, and they exert in some way the "forces
of darkness". That is, the forces exerted when one exercises "faith"
in the lies of the Evil One [through self-desire] rather than My Word [Will]
through godly desire. Again, unless My "ministers" are
"fully" on guard, they shall "allow" themselves, in some
way, to be moved off of the narrow path of My perfect will through that
negative influence. Have I not spoken before of the "absolute
necessity" of all My children abiding in My Word? Not only that they might
walk above "all error" and, thus, in perfect ministry, but also for
their very "survival" [overcoming] on the earth in this last hour!
My children must have no fear,
for indeed the "perfect Provision" has been made for each one of them
to walk above and, therefore, tread upon, all the forces of darkness [Luke 10:19]! Each one of My
children must also trim the "fat" [excess] from their hearts and,
then, begin to guard them with "all" diligence. For I have set the
things in motion in these days that shall "accelerate" the
"labour pains", and so shall you see the glorious manifestation"
of the fullness of My Will for My Church - through a holy people.
"excess" – the condition or fact of going beyond
what is usual, necessary, proper etc;
overindulgence;
