EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

[NOVEMBER 1ST 2006]

+ My children must come up to that place with Me that is far above "themselves", for it is only then that they shall be able to see "clearly" - and experience fully - the joy of "true" giving".

+ Divine love does not minister to "carnal need";  Divine love ministers to "Divine" (godly) need.

+ To the degree that one of My children "mistrust" Me, it is to that same degree that their children shall "mistrust" them; and thus their children are nurtured in the way of self-dependency rather than in the way of submission to true authority.

+ Many of My children have been "blinded" and "crippled" by the unforgiveness which they hold to in their heart.

+ It is only "abiding" in the fear (reverence) of the Lord that "precludes" leaning upon one's own understanding! For the fear of the Lord is the beginning of all Divine Wisdom.

+ Mammon is not just money. It also includes all of the "worldly pleasures" that money can buy.

+ One must not only be a hearer of My Word but also a "doer". For if one fails to be doer, soon they shall no longer be a hearer.

+ The exercising of a perfect love is always the "direct result" of a perfect obedience.

+ True prosperity for every child of Mine is always a result of a perfect obedience on their part.

[NOVEMBER  2ND 2006]

+ "A spirit of "intolerance" can be found working under either the Spirit of love or the spirit of fear. Under the Spirit of love an intolerance of the "unbelief" one is confronted with, as they go forth in My name, shall bring the hearer into that place wherein their "only option" is a perfect repentance or an "absolute" rebellion.A spirit of intolerance motivated by a spirit of fear shall be "construed" by all for what it is: hatred and jealousy and fear.

+ There is no "true" peace for a Christ-rejecting world and there is no "true" prosperity for a carnal Christian!

+ Whatever is not a product of faith in My "revealed" Word and obedience to the voice of the Holy Spirit is sin.

+ It is only after My children enter into that place of abiding that they will have the "ability" and "power" to forsake all that has, in some way, kept them in conformity to the world and its ways.

+ Now is the time for those of My children who have been "sleeping" to be awakened, for if they are not soon awakened from their sleep then they shall surely be drawn into some aspect of Satan's plan for a "one world order".

+ To the degree that one abides in My love and My Word it is to that degree that they abide in My authority!

+ True "financial freedom" is not a matter of having enough money to do what one desires to do at any time according to the desires (lust) of their own understanding, but rather, true financial freedom is having continually a superabundance of funds to carry out perfectly, My will, in the earth - for their ministry.

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father’s Heart]

[NOVEMBER  3RD 2006]

+ If one "maintains" a fear of failing then they will most certainly continue to do those things (aided by Satan) which will "ensure" their failure and keep them apart in some way from the "fulness" of their inheritance in Christ. Bringing every thought and action to a perfect obedience will always ensure "perfect success" in the life of the one abiding in perfect obedience.

+ The only reason "any" of My children "perish" in any way at the hands of the Evil One is because they have a lack of (revealed) knowledge of the Covenant that is theirs in Christ; and the only reason that any one of My children have a "lack" of revealed knowledge is because they do not spend "enough" time in "quality fellowship" with Me.

+ The only reason that any of My children are "wrong" in their "assessment" of My Word [Will] is if they wilfully maintain a selfish motivation in their heart. For truly I say to you, the desire to speak the uncompromised truth and to walk in the center of My Will of ones life and ministry shall always be perfectly fulfilled, and that one shall continually be empowered by My Spirit to walk above "error".

+ Striving in one's own strength to be "holy" surely shall lead them into the shackles of sin until such a time as that one repents from leaning upon their own understanding and uses that "wasted energy" to believe and trust in My Word and obey the voice of My Spirit alone"....

+ Perfection in My eyes and perfection in the eyes of man are two different things.

+ When one of My children is under attack from the Evil One, "pride" is their worst enemy - for maintaining pride in the face of attack precludes the exercising of faith.

+ Every time one of My children refuses to place "all" of their trust in My Word alone they "allow" the Devil, in some way, to exalt himself above them.

+ To the degree that one of My children are not able to handle "rejection" properly, to that same degree they shall, in some way, seek after the approval and the praises of men.

+ Many of My children "think" too much - and it is the Devil who is giving them their "excessive" thoughts.

                                                                                          *****

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father’s Heart]

[NOVEMBER  4th 2006]

+ Many of My children continue to make "allowances" for a sin-consciousness, and thus they "limit" their ability to receive the full revelation of their authority in Christ that I desire to bless them with - and which is necessary for them to fulfill all that I have called them to do. My children must never settle for less than "seeking" to abide in a "perfect obedience" - for in doing so they shall surely attain to the "heights" that I have called them to and they shall surely fulfill their precious destiny, in Christ.

+ One's "true" confession will always line up with the realm in which their heart is truly dwelling [the "world" or the Kingdom]! For the most part My children continue to speak out of both sides of their mouth, but in reality (the spiritual realm) I require each one of My children to both confess and proclaim My "perfect will" for every aspect of their lives - both individually and corporately. There is no "method" or "formula" to proper confession it is always simply a matter of one diligently inclining their heart continually towards My Word, and in the times of fellowship and ministering unto Me, My life and love and faith shall become the superabundance which "motivates" every word that proceeds out of their mouth.

+ If the fear of man brings a snare (trap) - and it does - then the fear (reverence) of God brings forth deliverance  (salvation).

+ If My children seek to please Me and to glorify Me in all things, then regardless of what they set their hand to in "perfect obedience" to My Word and My Spirit, they shall both enjoy and be satisfied - fully.

+ There is such a great danger of "deception" in this last hour that My children must abide in My Word to have "any" assurance at all that they themselves are not deceived in some way. For it is only as My children both walk in and remain in the light of My Word, that darkness shall find no place in them.

+ Danger "lurks" and the only way to escape it is for My children to walk "above" it.

+ What father would not have their son or daughter prosper in "all" things? How much "more" then do I desire that each one of My children prosper in "all aspects" of life and ministry?

+ The only way that you are going to walk against the  [potentially]"overwhelming financial attack of Satan is to walk (abide) in perfect obedience. Be found faithful in the little things and surely all that I have promised to you shall manifest in the physical realm. Take no preconceived notions - for truly I say to you, I shall do exceeding abundantly beyond all you could ever ask or think. Continue to expect the unexpected!

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father’s Heart]

[NOVEMBER  5th 2006]

+ To the degree that My children measure My forgiveness towards them, it will be to that degree that they are "enabled" to abide in forgiveness towards others.

+ True humility is perfect agreement in word and action with My Word [Will]- regardless of what others may think. False humility is any agreement with the carnal words of men and women (influenced by Satan) for fear of what they think, and to gain their "acceptance and approval".

+ The "greatest love" is that which seeks My best for all those who cross their path - at "all cost" to themselves.

+ My church is no longer going to be a church that only "talks" of Me, but they shall be a Church with "Me" in their midst.

+ This is not a time of "levity" in the midst of the congregations of My people, but rather a most "serious time" of consecration and receptiveness to the words of My holy apostles and prophets.

+ To the degree that one is not content with the things that I have blessed them with; it is to that degree that they are "content" with sin.

JESUS:

+ I have anointed My holy apostles unto a "holy destruction" of all that is apart from Me in the midst of My people!

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father’s Heart]

[NOVEMBER  6th 2006]

+ Now is the time when all shall see who "truly" loves Me.

+ To the degree that My children are walking in perfect obedience it is to that degree that they shall be able to abide in a "supernatural endurance" - and thereby remain "unaffected" by all those things which are apart from My Will.

+ This must be your one aspiration, My beloved ones: that I ever be glorified in you to the greatest degree.

+ It is time for Me to enter into the midst of My people.

+ Guarding one's heart with all diligence is the only way that one shall be able to discern constantly the deepest "motivations" of their heart.

+ Perfect obedience begets perfect obedience.

+ The Evil One cannot touch "Life".

+ The fear of being "let down" or rejected by a  man is "deeply lodged" within the "unrenewed mind" [nature] of a woman. Therefore, it is only as My precious daughters steadfastly affix themselves to My Word with all diligence, that their hearts will be opened wide to receive My all-consuming love for them, and it is then that they shall be perfectly equipped and fitted to receive all that I have for them concerning marriage and ministry.

+ A doctor does not go forth to minister to those who are well, and neither do I send forth My holy apostles and prophets to minister only to the "obedient", but also to those of My children who are "lost" in their rebellion.

+ If any one of My children have a fear of "rejection" then they will, in some way, through their words or actions, reject - or distance themselves in some way from - those I have ordained them to be close to.

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father’s Heart]

[NOVEMBER  7th 2006]

+ Love [faith-obedience] causes all things to work together for good; fear [selfishness-pride] causes all things to work together for the eventual destruction of the one "maintaining" the fear.

+ One's "success" is not measured by their conformity to the best the "world" has to offer, but rather by their conformity to Me [My Will].

+ Sin is a "life-style" - just like faith and obedience are a life-style.

+ Anytime that I am about to accomplish a "great work" through one of My children, Satan always seeks to form a "tempest" (a violent commotion or agitation; a fierce tumult; a storm) against them as they "move forward" to carry out My initial command. This is precisely why all of My bondservants and handmaidens must keep their eyes "fixed" on My Word - for in doing so they shall not be moved by what they see or feel or hear or "think" through "any" circumstance which might arise through Satan's attempt to stop them.

+ My children, do what you "know" to do [have a revelation of]. Anything more or anything less will only be a waste of time - and there is no time to waste!

+ This is no time for "theological discussion" amongst My people! This is a time of drawing near to Me - for each one of My children. For it is only as one remains in the place of close and intimate fellowship with Me that their "survival" in the earth is assured in this final hour.

+ Truly, truly I say to you, if certain individuals in places of leadership in My church truly desired to know the deepest thoughts and intentions of My heart they would "recognize" My holy apostles and prophets.

+ Before My people are "caught away" they shall live in the earth under an "open heaven".

+ Entering into that place of "perfect obedience" is like a "breath of fresh air" to one of My children who had previously "allowed" themselves to be held in bondage by sin.

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father’s Heart]

[NOVEMBER  8th 2006]

+ The "authority" that men bestow upon men has its source in the darkened mind of the Evil One and the purpose of bestowing such authority is always to set up a "Satanic structure" which eventually shall be used in some way in an attempt to hinder and destroy the coming together of the true Church.

+ Rising above the schemes of the Evil One calls for a "spiritual sensitivity".

+ There are only two reactions to "loneliness": the seeking of "outward consolation" or trust in My Word.

+ One who does not seek to love [obey] at all times walks apart from the spirit of true friendship.

+ "Emotional attachments" are the "fuelling fire" of any rebellion towards Me which remains in the hearts of My children, concerning their walking in the fulness of the ministry that I have called them to!"

+ "Perfect love" always does the greatest harm to the Evil One and his schemes!

+ Complaining" is the "heart-cry" of unbelief and selfishness.

+ This is the time wherein I shall lead all those who truly love Me into the fulness of their inheritance in Christ.

+ All seeking of "outward consolation" is a product of fear and unbelief.

+ To the degree that My children abide in My Word, thus allowing that word to divide between that which of the spirit and that which is of the soul, it is to that degree that they shall be able to distinguish between "needs" and "wants" -- which are motivated by a "spirit of lust" [the desire for things and people apart from My Will].

+ To walk in the fulness of any blessing one is going to have to continue on abiding in My Word [Will].

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father’s Heart]

[NOVEMBER 9th 2006]

+ Nothing less than "perfect obedience" should be acceptable to those who are called to a position of leadership in My Church in this last hour.

+ There is a part of the "old nature" that always is seeking the acceptance and the approval of others, and thus each one of My children must diligently guard their heart against any form of "outward consolation", knowing that I shall provide those with "kindred spirits" in order that together they might, as one, carry out My will. But let it be clearly understood by each one of My children that the only fellowship that they need concern themselves with is perfect fellowship with Me! I shall surely take care of the rest.

+ How could one possibly live a fruitful life if  they continue to put themselves above My Church and the establishment of My Kingdom in the earth?

+ The only way that one is able to overcome the love of money is the love of God.

+ Love is not a "feeling". Love is a revelation.

+ Mankind is completely incapable of satisfying or pleasing Me through any work or action which proceeds from their own understanding. Only that which is wholly conformed to Jesus Christ (My Word) is acceptable in My sight.

+ Do not despair My faithful ones! never be moved by any physical circumstance only adhere and affix yourselves to My Word concerning that situation and you shall receive the revelation needed to stand in the place of intercession and thus bring forth the needed change in the physical circumstances.

+ My beloved ones, in the path of pressure and trial, begin to give - spirit, soul, body and financially - to others, and cease thinking of yourself and your own "needs".

+ True love is a divine seed that will not "go away". It might be covered over with "soil" that is not fertile. It may be cast upon the barren ground of a stony heart but ultimately - if that "seed" is watered and the fallow and barren ground of the stony heart is "broken up", thus allowing that seed entrance into the innermost fibre of that one' being, then that seed of My divine love shall grow and finally and finally give birth to "every" characteristic and physical manifestation that I had originally intended.

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father’s Heart]

[NOVEMBER 10th 2006]

+ The key to the life of perfect obedience is the "inner chamber"! Without spending the time in fellowship with Me which I require My children can never abide in that position which will allow them to receive the fullness of the authority I have blessed them with in Christ. And without the "fullness" of autority they shall fall short of the fullness of My will. My sole aim in this last hour is to lead My children into the fullness of "My Best". For it is only as My ministers minister the "fullness" of My salvation that will allow the the fullness of My will for My Church to come to pass. Therefore, teach My children these things for My time has come.

+ There is a great difference between a "holy" caution and a "natural" caution. A holy caution is exercised solely in the interest of My will being carried out and is rooted and grounded in a heart of love. A natural caution is exercised solely in the interest of "self" with a view to preserving the interests of the flesh.

+ All self-exaltation is futile!

+ Another important reason for spending quality time in fellowship with Me is that it enables Me to build the proper image and vision I have for that child of God and it allows Me to place godly desires in their heart of hearts. As My children maintain the place of abiding they shall surely allow Me to build a "steadfast" vision - a vision (revelation) that shall continually keep them pointed in the right direction.

+ Rebelliousness is vain and perilous resistance.

+ It is "easier" to be a fool than it is to be a man or woman of God!

+ The power of love can overcome all things - and only the power of love.

+ Intercessory prayer is the key to "breaking up" the fallow and barren ground of a hardened heart. Many times, as my children have entered into intercessory prayer on behalf of others, they have fallen short of the "full" manifestation of My will in the lives of the ones they were interceding for and the became puzzled by this. What every one of My children must come to clearly understand is that true intercession involves the "whole" life - spirit, soul and body - abiding in perfect obedience, for as they do they shall surely bring to pass the fullness of My will in the lives they are interceding for and they shall surely glorify Me to the "greatest degree".

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

[NOVEMBER 11th 2006]

+ I know the end of all things.

+ Every action of the flesh is bound by a "spirit of deception".

+ If it is not "of" Me it cannot glorify Me.

+ My presence is not found in fear-filled words.

+ A "spirit of mistrust's" duty is to keep My people in a position wherein they do not trust Me "wholeheartedly". Another aspect of this evil spirit's work is to bring people into a place of "trusting" in anything that is apart from My Word [Will]. And as they are "allowed" to do this they will surely keep the targeted ones out of My will and out of the fullness of the ministry that I called them to.

+ As your lives are conformed to perfect obedience so shall My Word flow forth from you in the fullness of conviction and so shall the anointing that abides within you and upon you devastate the strongholds of the Evil One.

+ All discouragement is rooted and grounded in unbelief.

+ Self has its own "agenda". Faith's only agenda is to do My Will.

+ One cannot edify someone while operating under a "spirit of self-exaltation".

+ Sin enters in and is maintained by a "faulty" thought-life.

+ Love is never found in the words or actions of one's own understanding.

+ In this last hour My children are going to "receive" a continually deeper revelation of the word "all". For indeed it is the word "all" that best describes My absoluteness.

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father’s Heart]

[NOVEMBER 12th 2006]

+ It is quite simple: at any given time one is either bringing every thought captive to Satan and his self-exaltive lies or they are bringing every thought captive to a revelation of My Word.

+ For one of My bondservants or handmaidens to take offense at "any" type of rejection from those who cross their path is for them to take a "self-exaltive" thought. For have I not made it abundantly clear that when they are "rejected" it is Me they (vessels of persecution) reject and not flesh and blood. And thus, to take offense is to take a self-exalting position which says: "I am above God". For in taking offense they deem themselves partly responsible for that which they have said or done, and thus their desire for self-glory is exposed. If one's heart is wholly given they will not be offended for they will know both the source of their words or actions and who the attack is truly against.

+ Who but the Church should be involved in matters of life and death for they are the only vessel that has the capability of dealing properly with such matters.

+ Sickness and disease are a ministry of the spirit of death.

+ The "flesh" is a creature of habit and it will either be in control through "bad habits" (unprofitable actions) or be controlled through "good habits" (profitable actions).

+ Every time one of My children takes a step out on their "own" understanding they are always moving a little further away from Me , regardless of how "spiritual" or "good" their action may seem.

+ The "inner chamber" is the key to walking in the "fulness" of one's inheritance in Christ.

+ The world needs to gain a true definition of the word "prosperity" and I shall surely show them through My spotless and unblemished Church.

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father’s Heart]

[NOVEMBER 13th 2006]

+ Setting one's heart on the "increase in riches" will surely lead them to a "plateau" - spiritually speaking.

+ Many of My "sons" have refused to allow themselves to be renewed in their minds concerning My "daughters". They have held back - for one reason and one reason alone: they derive a "false sense" of authority and power through "maintaining" the thought (lie and deception) that they are "superior" to My daughters. Truly I say to you, I shall "obliterate" this "stronghold" from the midst of My people and I shall do continually greater signs and wonders through My holy daughters in this most glorious hour!

+ The deepest desire of every one of My children should be to carry out My will for their lives with a "pinpoint accuracy".

+ The reason why many of My children have "held part back" in this area of finances is that finances are always found to be the most direct link to soulish gratification. Therefore, if one seeks in any way to gratify themselves in any area of their lives then their giving and their handling of finances shall be "imperfect". It is only as My children abide in My Word - thus allowing Me to continually renew their minds to the "absoluteness" of My Divine Requirement [Luke 10:27] - that they shall abide in that place where their heart is "wholly" given.

+ The only way that one of My children can be ignorant of Satan's schemes is if they "allow" themselves to be aligned with them in some way.

+ The essence or root of all "deception" is the "desire" to exalt self [the seeking after self-glory]! This is why, if there is any "ground" of fear (selfishness-pride) being maintained in one's life, they shall surely be "deceived" to a degree until such time as they step out into the light of My presence. Thus, it is only perfect fellowship with Me on a continual basis that will prevent the spirits of darkness and the spirits of deception from being successful in their attempts to keep My children well below My highest purpose - that is, the manifestation of the spotless and unblemished Church (the Body of Christ) in the earth.

+ How can one help but love when one allows My love to be continually shed abroad in their heart by the Holy Spirit?

+ My faithful ones shall see and discern all things so clearly in this last hour that it shall both shock and amaze all those who cross their path, and this shall cause the Devil to flee continually before them. Truly I say to you, he can run but he cannot hide!

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father’s Heart]

[NOVEMBER 14th 2006]

+ When one of My children is "rejected" they must always remember it is not because of who they are (in themselves) but because of Whom they serve.

+ There is nothing that can stop My will from being fully manifested in the lives of My children except fear and unbelief.

+ The absoluteness of My Truth preached in the "fulness" of conviction shall surely turn the world "upside down" before My beloved Church is caught up to be with Me.

+ To abide in perfect obedience is to "ensure" the "greatest eternal benefit" in the lives of all those who cross your path.

+ There is no such thing as "proper motivation" apart from divine love.

+ There is not any amount of persecution that is brought against a "true work" of Mine that can do any harm to it as long as those in authority do not take "offense" against the "vessels" that Satan has used.

+ When one "increases" in riches they will either set their heart on that increase to satisfy their own soulish lusts or they will set their heart on the "increase" of My kingdom.

+ Assurance is a matter of the heart.

+ Unless My children "allow" themselves to gain a continually deeper revelation of the "no greater selfishness" of the flesh then they will not be in the "perfect position" to receive a continually deeper revelation of the "no greater love" of the Holy Spirit [the Spirit of the Cross] - Who abides within them.

+ "Hints" are always spoken forth in the wrong spirit (a spirit of manipulation)! They are the direct opposite of an "authoritative word" - which is based solely upon revelation.

+ A holy intolerance is simply a product of a heart abiding in perfect love.

+ An "authoritative word" is the direct result of revealed knowledge and the unction of the Holy Spirit.

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father’s Heart]

[NOVEMBER 15th 2006]

+ One's obedience is never "effected" by outward circumstances; outward circumstances are effected by one's obedience.

+ "Wealth" is relative to its eternal value.

+ Many of My children are plagued with an "invisible"  fear. A fear - and the ground thereof - that can only be detected and discerned by My light, and if one desires to "hold part back" then they shall not place themselves in the position they need to be to receive the "needed" light. This is why Satan strives to deceive My children into a place of "sinfulness" that he might blind, and make them "unaware", that their "righteousness" is, in reality, unrighteousness. It is only as My children choose to have the deepest work of the Cross done in them continually, that these "invisible" and "silent" fears can be exposed and dealt with - eternally.

+ In the lateness of this final hour My children will either forsake the foolishness of their fear or the very things that they have "held" on to shall cause them to be "overwhelmed".

+ The "apathy" and the "lethargy" that many  of My children have "allowed" to affect them in this hour is an attack rooted in demonic power and influence, and it is not something that one will walk above apart from the power of My Spirit.

+ To the degree that one "disputes" the teaching of an anointed child of God - correct or incorrect - it is to that degree that they themselves have a "controversy" with authority. For indeed "flesh and blood" may be incorrect in dividing My Word rightly, but if the trust and dependence of My children for their "teaching" and their "growing" are in Me, then it is to that degree that they shall clearly discern any "error which crosses their path, for "true" love always understands "all" things. And in this state they are then able to pray and intercede for the one in "error". This is the true way of love! - not the argumentative and self-exalting "correction" that sometimes is looked upon as being of Me! For truly I say to you, only those whose hearts are one with Me shall ever be put in the position of "judging" their brothers and sisters in Christ, because it is only these ones who will handle every situation correctly in My sight - their only goal being to lead My children into the fulness of their precious inheritance in Christ, and establish and maintain My spotless and unblemished Church.

+ It is extremely hard for one to get their eyes off of themselves and "fixed" on the Word of God if they continue to lead "self-indulgent" lives.

+ To the degree that one remains "fasted", it is to that degree that they shall remain sensitive to those things which could be considered "poisonous" to their being - spirit, soul and body.

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father’s Heart]

[NOVEMBER 16th 2006]

+ Continued diligence in My Word will bring forth "consistency" in the faith walk.

+ It is certain that My people shall be taught of Me right up until the time I "catch away" My Church. Let it be clearly understood that My best is for My people to be taught continually as they "abide" in perfect obedience.

+ If the deepest motivation of My children is to walk in perfect love then all that they say and do will be geared toward the "edification" of all those who cross their path and they shall never be found speaking out of a spirit of self-justification or self-exaltation.

+ Any hardness found in one's heart shall surely dissolve as they enter into perfect fellowship with Me (inner chamber) on a daily basis.

+ An alignment with - and dependence upon - the lies of Satan serves only to subtract from one's life. All alignment with - and dependence upon - My Word serves only to "multiply" and add to (increase) one's life.

+ Love never tires of loving! Love never grows weary. Love endures all.

+ One "maintains" the "Mind of Christ" by bringing every thought captive to a perfect obedience.

+ If one of My children "maintain" unforgiveness and bitterness against anyone then - directly or indirectly - they will "heap" death and darkness upon the one they are "offended" with rather than the divine light and life and love which would bless and not curse.

+ Unforgiveness is the greatest obstacle to perfect fellowship with Me.

+ Ministry motivated by "feelings" is never true ministry

+ As My children step out in perfect obedience the anointing that abides within them shall flow forth continually.

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father’s Heart]

[NOVEMBER 17th 2006]

+ One is either seeking My approval or the approval of "flesh and blood" - at any given moment. One cannot do both at the same time.

+ How can those in "Christian ministry" continually conform to the world in their thinking and expect deliverance for the "captives"?

+ If any of My children settle for less than My best in "any" aspect of their lives then that "leaven" [of unrighteousness] shall surely seep into every other aspect of their lives, and unless a thorough repentance is forthcoming they shall surely find themselves in a place far removed from "My best" for their lives and ministries.

+ For any of My children not to forgive is to dishonour the Blood of Jesus and, thus,  "choose" to walk in darkness.

+ The number one characteristic of true apostolic and prophetic ministry is to continually put the "onus" upon all those they minister to, to come into perfect fellowship with Me - in order that they might gain the necessary revelations they need to continue on in their spiritual growth. If one's heart is truly towards Me then the words that My holy apostles and prophets speak shall surely minister to them in such a way as to cause them to draw near to Me, and thus they shall receive the necessary instructions I have for them. If one's heart is hardened towards Me they will not "like" the words that My holy apostles and prophets speak before them and they will be brought to a place of choosing [absolute decision] before Me - that choice being either perfect obedience or continued rebellion. From this place perfect obedience will lead them into an accelerated and deeper spiritual growth for all those who would obey, and for all those who refuse to hearken unto the words of My beloved servants they shall surely "continue" to perish - bound by self-desire and the "self-agenda" that is its spontaneous by-product.

+ The spirit of obedience is rooted and grounded in love.

+ It is one thing for My children to "gain" a revelation of My Word it is another thing for them to "maintain" that revelation through an "abiding" diligence.

+ My people will walk in love to the degree that they have a "revelation" of Love (My Person - character)! If one "allows" their revelation to "dim" - through a failure to guard their heart with all diligence then it is to that degree that they shall begin to lean upon their own understanding, and place My Word below that which they discern with their five physical senses.

+ Perfect obedience is "always" a product of revelation.

[NOVEMBER 18th 2006]

+ The one influenced by the "spirit of antichrist" is one who in word and deed opposes Christ (The Anointed One) and who persecutes to "any" degree any word or action that is truly anointed by Me - that which is in perfect alignment with My Word and the unction of My Spirit.

+ Seeking first My kingdom and "self-denial" run hand in hand.

+ All true diligence is a product of a perfect love.

+ The Anointing that I have anointed My bondservants and handmaidens with in this last hour is a powerful, powerful anointing! And as My bondservants and handmaidens set themselves in a perfect obedience both the Church and the entire earth shall see "manifestations" of My life and light and love that shall shake the very foundations of Hell!

+ To "maintain" perfect fellowship with Me requires an abiding faithfulness in the "little things".

+ One cannot "reject" Me in any way and expect to prosper - with a divine [eternal] prosperity.

+ It is not only error, the traditions of men and doctrines of demons that keep the captives in bondage but also even the "doctrinally correct" words spoken by those in delegated authority who have allowed themselves to become "lukewarm". For in this state the anointing within them is hindered to such a great degree that they render themselves "impotent" as far as being a vessel of deliverance is concerned.

+ To the degree that one trusts in Me it is to that degree that they will trust in the words that I speak through My holy apostles and prophets in this hour.

+ All self-indulgence is "excess".

+ There is nothing more foolish that one can do than to "align" themselves with Satan!"....

+ True repentance is not an "intention" it is a "definite" series of acts, in obedience, to My Word and My Spirit.

+ If one's heart is wholly given to Me then they shall "surely" settle for nothing less than My best for their life and ministry.

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father’s Heart]

[NOVEMBER 19th 2006]

+ The reason why many of My children do not walk in the "fulness" of their inheritance in Christ is because they do not allow themselves to "see" themselves as I see them. Instead they see themselves continually as much less than they are in reality - the reality of My Word concerning them.

+ One is either going to see things through My eyes or through the eyes of the "flesh" - in any given moment.

+ It is as the hearts of many of  My children are "wholly given" that the final and all-consuming release of the outpouring of My Spirit shall bring forth the manifestation of My perfect plan for My spotless and unblemished Church - and the total devastation of all satanic strongholds in the midst of My people!

+ There is only one lane on the highway of holiness [Isaiah 35].

+ Sensitivity of heart must be both developed and maintained.

+ "Tradition" is the main enemy of revelation.

+ Flattery is a self-seeking practice.

+ The fear of what others think and the seeking after self-glory are the root of all compromise in the midst of My people.

+ All frustration in one's life denotes previous "self-effort"  - in one form or another.

+ Regret is food for condemnation.

+ Abiding in love, abiding in an absolute faith, and abiding in perfect obedience are the same thing.

+ When one abides in perfect obedience they gain a continually deeper revelation of the power of the precious Blood of Jesus. And, in gaining a continually deeper revelation of the Blood, they gain a continually deeper revelation of the "fact" that they are no longer in bondage to a "sin-consciousness".

+ The empowerment for one to become a "living sacrifice" is the product of time spent with Me in perfect fellowship in the "inner chamber".

+ Unbelief is a thief.

+ One resists the Devil by "counteracting" his every thought and move.

+ The "inner chamber" is the catalyst to maintaining a heart wholly given.

+ Preconceived "notions" preclude revelation.

+ Never get offended when you are confronted with "ignorance". For abiding within you is the capability to lead them into a full knowledge of the Truth.

+ Anyone who will receive and act upon that which has been "ministered" by one of My holy  apostles or prophets "immediately" becomes a "partner" (partaker) in their ministry, and shall "immediately" begin to "partake" of the grace and the Anointing that is upon that apostle or prophet [Philippians 1:7 K.J.V.].

+ Life always overtakes death and light always swallows up darkness. Death cannot handle life and darkness cannot handle light.

+ "Error" is the product of an improper motivation of the heart. "Mistakes" are actions not in accordance with My perfect will, but which are not lacking a proper motivation of the heart and they can easily be corrected. The root of all "error" is self-exaltation and rebellion.

+ There is no way for My children to "walk after the S(s)pirit" unless their spirit man is constant in its ascendency over the soul and body [Proverbs 4:23].

+ Everything" pertaining to the Kingdom is predicated upon perfect obedience.

+ True [divine] prosperity comes to those who live upon the "wisdom" [revelation] that abides in their spirit.

+ "Joseph" is a type and symbol of My "divine increase".

+ Without a "heart wholly given" it is not an "absolute faith" that My children are exercising and if not repented of they will allow the ground of "leaven" to take them right out of their faith and into an area of "natural" hope, but truly I say to you as My children operate from a heart wholly given - thus continually exercising an absolute faith working through an absolute love (obedience) then they shall surely experience a supernatural and superabundant answer to every one of their prayers.

[NOVEMBER 21st 2006]

+ If you truly love someone then you will not get "offended" at whatever they may do - or not do.

+ The "symptoms" of obedience are superabundance! The "symptoms" of disobedience are lack.

+ If My children are going to operate continually in the fullness of their inheritance in Christ then they shall have to exercise their faith continually with a "pin-point accuracy".

+ An "excellent blessing" is the product of excellence.

+ Tomorrow" never comes for the procrastinating heart.

+ I shall send My apostles and prophets directly from the Throne Room to build My Church into a "pure vessel" of Glory.

+ It is the "Spirit of obedience" that empowers one to be a blessing. Therefore, it is to the degree that one abides in My Word(s) - for they are spirit and life - that they shall "bless" all those who cross their path.

+ It is never My will for My people to be "ashamed".

+ The "spirit of self-justification" and the fear of what others think are "inextricably" linked.

+ Always remember, My beloved ones, that I am your "witness",  and when you are confronted by those who "accuse" you of being "lovers of money" you shall "begin" to say: "God is my witness and He knows my heart. Who is your "witness"? Therefore, you are without excuse, every one of you who passes judgement, for in that you judge another, you condemn yourselves; for you who judge falsely practice the same things (the very thing that they falsely accused My obedient ones of). And we "know" that the judgement of God rightly falls upon all those who "practice" such things! [Romans 2:1-2]

+ Wisdom shall indeed be vindicated! As My children speak and act out of the wisdom that abides within their heart (the Spirit of wisdom and revelation) they shall surely be fully vindicated in ALL that they do and say.

JESUS:

I bore your "fear(s)" that you might not fear.

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father’s Heart]

[NOVEMBER 22nd 2006]

+ The direct result of "abiding" in perfect obedience is always to glorify Me to the greatest degree; exalt the name of Jesus to the greatest degree; hurt the Devil and his forces to the greatest degree, and bless [empower] all those who cross their path to the greatest degree.

+ The job of my holy apostles and prophets is not to tell My people how to spend, or where to give their money. Their job is to lead My people into that "intimate fellowship" with Me that I require of them, and that will "empower" them to give and spend as I please.

+ Only those who plan to "fall" need a "safety net" [horded finances-false security in any form].

+ The Spirit of obedience abiding within - and hearkened unto - keeps My children "continually" hungering and thirsting after righteousness [cultivating the desire to be righteously motivated in all things].

+ I have placed the "Anointing of increase" in the hands of those that will "bless", "break" and "distribute" [the loaves and fishes - Mark 8:6; Elijah - 1 Kings 17].

+ One brings "every" thought captive to a perfect obedience by "speaking" My perfect will [a revelation thereof] in the face of the lies Satan "attempts" to inflict upon one's thought-life.

+ What shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Hell on earth in this final hour! [Mark 8:36]

+ All that which is the "product" of the faith and obedience of My children shall remain as a "witness forever"! Behold! All those righteous works and every last bit of fruit that they bore against the "former" kingdom of darkness shall be constantly before the face of Satan - as he is tormented day and night, forever and ever [Revelation 20:10]. For there was not one of these "righteous works" that he did not try to stop, and thus shall his failures be a constant "memorial" before him, forever and ever!

+ To the degree that My children abide in an "Anointing (Anointed) - consciousness" it is to that degree that they shall walk free of a "sin-consciousness".

+ One receives only what they "truly" desire in this life.

JESUS:

+ Always remember, that you are seated at the right hand of the Father with Me (the Ascension Life), and that "any" manifestation of Satan is a form of death and darkness - but also remember that death and darkness are "under your feet"!

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father’s Heart]

[NOVEMBER 23rd 2006]

+ The beginning of wisdom is the "holy desire" to acquire wisdom.

+ When one of My children "gives" (walks in love - obedience) spirit, soul, body or financially there shall always spring forth a superabundant outpouring of "joy" in their heart, and this very joy is the "catalyst" of the strength, the power and the "burning desire" to continue on in perfect obedience - in all things.

+ The eternal salvation of any given "unregenerated" man does not rest upon the "money-making schemes" of the "church"!

+ The S(s)pirit of self-denial (self-control) supercedes the spirit of self-indulgence.

+ Words" are everything because "words" are either "containers" and "vehicles" for My faith and My love - produced by abiding in My Word, or for the unbelief, selfishness and fear that "alignment" with the lies of Satan produces!"....

+ The sole motivation for every child of God should be this one thing: to love Me -  the Lord their God - with all of their heart, with all of their soul, with all of their strength and with all their mind. For it is only in this way that they shall continually acheive [by the power of My Spirit] "maximum results" in all that they are called to do.

+ If one of My children truly desires to change their circumstances and thus move into the fulness of that which I have called them to then they must diligently seek to obey Me in every aspect of their lives for as they do truly I say to you, they shall soon come into a position "far above" their previous circumstances.

+ The "inner chamber" is not "relegated" to just an hour or two in the early morning, although it certainly begins there. Truly I say to you, My holy apostles and prophets shall spend the vast majority of their time in the "inner chamber" for it is necessary for them to do so in order to carry out their part in this final thrust of My Spirit in this last hour.

+ My children shall "appreciate" My "wisdom" to the degree that they abide in My Word. Truly I say to you, in this last hour My faithful ones (obedient ones) shall be thrilled beyond their wildest imaginations as I reveal the depth of My plan for their remaining time on earth.

+ The time has come for all those who truly love Me to be "elevated" far above and beyond the daily routine and "religious activity" - born of a fellowship with the world. I shall send forth My holy apostles and prophets for this very purpose and truly I say to you, those who are willing to "hear" (both hear and act upon) the words that I speak through them shall be immersed in light and from that day forth they shall no longer treat My most holy bondservants and handmaidens with "disdain". Truly I say to you, if one will "honour" My holy apostles and prophets then surely they shall be found honouring Me and if they refuse to honor My holy apostles and prophets then surely they shall be found to be not honouring Me! I call upon all those whose sole desire is to fulfil the "fullness" of the ministry that they are called to to make the "necessary" adjustment in their "attitude" and "treatment" of those in authority.

+ Patience is the power of endurance.

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father’s Heart]

[NOVEMBER 24th 2006]

+ When one's "spirit man" is not in ascendency over their soul and body then "fear" seems so very real to them - and faith so distant.

+ The laws [principles] of increase  [working through faith, obedience and love] both supercede and "automatically" bring to pass the "law of divine restoration" in one's life.

+ Perfect obedience brings forth the "necessary confrontation" in the lives of My children. Disobedience brings forth [fuels] a fear of the "necessary confrontation" - and a departure from "intimate" fellowship with Me, through that fear. This paints an "illusion" [deception] in those who hold to "their" fears, and thus they hinder greatly the "work" [the deepest work of the Cross] that I desire to do in them through My Spirit! Truly I say to you, as they "seek" a thorough repentance - and begin to exercise "obedience" in the very areas that they feared to confront - it shall seem as nothing to them [of no previous consequence] at all as they continue on in the path that I have set out before them. For My love continually "shed abroad" in their heart will have brought them to the place where death (and the darkness thereof) are under their feet - for all time.

+ When My children "sow their financial seeds" in a spirit of self-seeking [self-glory] - into "dead works", then it is the same as if a man planting a garden took the seeds that he had and instead of planting them in the "good ground", he threw them in a "garbage can". Rejoice, My beloved ones, for as you will turn your hearts "wholly" towards Me I am both willing and able to "recover" any seed which you have lost or "misplaced", and as you begin to abide in the law(s) of divine increase you will begin to "automatically" recover "all" that which Satan has stolen from you. And I shall surely show you how to plant that very same seed "properly", and you shall reap the "true harvest" that I had planned for you from before the foundations of the earth.

+ Those of My children who still "compete" are not yet "complete"!

+ "Seed" [spirit, soul, body and/or financially] must be sown in perfect obedience" [revelation + the leading of the Holy Spirit].

+ The "fasted life" is the key to a "continuous" flow of "revelation".

+ Revelation knowledge "supercedes" the "thought-life" - and "any" fear that Satan attempts to inject therein.

+ If I did not make the "Perfect Provision" [Jesus the Christ] for each and every one of My children to "abide" in perfect obedience then I would not have required it of them.

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

["Reflections" Of The Father’s Heart]

[NOVEMBER 25th 2006]

+ If My Word is ministered forth from the pulpit in "perfect love" then it is "certain" that the bondage of fear will be broken in the individual lives of those in the congregations. On the other hand, if the flow of love is blocked because of remaining "ground" in the life of the one who ministers then fear will still be a dominant "force" in the individual lives of those in the congregations.

+ Without "revelation" My children have nothing to "affix" their faith to. As one seeks Me with regard to "any" aspect of their life and ministry I shall surely provide the needed revelation for them. For truly I say to you, the "exactness" that I require of each and every one of My children is a direct and spontaneous product of a "continuous flow" of revelation abiding in one's spirit.

+ Satan will always "attempt" to steal My Word out of My children's hearts but it is certain that once that "word" becomes "revelation" [and is maintained with all diligence] there is nothing he can do about it! This is why he works so hard to keep My children in a position where their spirit man is not in "ascendency" over their soul and body. For then it becomes very difficult for My children to "receive" the revelation that flows continually from My Spirit dwelling within them. Their "receiver" is "jammed" by the certain "bombardment" of thoughts which have their source in Satan and his minions, and which are rooted and grounded in "the spirit of fear". But as My children guard their hearts with all diligence they shall surely rise above these "attacks", and not only will they be able to receive the aforementioned "flow of revelation" they shall also be continually aware of Satan and his schemes - not only in their own lives but in the lives of all those who cross their path. And they will take that flow of revelation and exercise the "maximum authority" that is theirs in Christ and Satan and his strongholds shall be continually "devastated" by them at every turn!

+ "True love" never seeks to "control" or "manipulate" anyone or anything for its own personal benefit; but true love will always take "all" that which I have blessed them with in Christ and exercise "faithful" prayer and ministry of the Word to bring "all" those who cross their path under the "control" of My loving plan for their lives.

+ When My children "hear" My Word - and "accept" it - it becomes "revelation" within them, and the entrance of that Word and the light it produced shall be found ever-expanding in them.

+ In the same way that faith puts into motion the law(s) of divine increase, fear puts into motion the "law of decrease".

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

[NOVEMBER 26th 2006]

+ I do not have any fear of being "taken advantage of".

+ Anytime that one speaks too much it is most certainly a "wrong spirit" behind their words.

+ When one's spirit man is in ascendency over their soul they will not be moved by what they "feel", but when their soul and body are in ascendency over their spirit the they shall "surely" be moved, in some way, by how they "feel".

+ I do not use "rules" to restrain or constrain My people. It is the very "Spirit of love" abiding within that restrains and constrains them in the perfect paths of righteousness.

+ The "fruit" of believing is "rest".

+ Two unrighteous acts do not make a righteous act!

+ Without divine love abiding in one's heart the only faith that they "exercise" will be "faith" in their own ability (self-exaltation)".

+ If one is truly living for Me then they shall not fear what others "think".

+ There is a difference between what many of My children "think" they need and what they truly need.

+ It does not matter what one "accuses" My children of. Their one and only desire should be to be found walking in "perfect integrity" because when they are found "abiding" in that position truly I say to you, clearly "no weapon" that is formed against them shall prosper and indeed that "weapon" shall be overturned "immediately" and in such a way that it will "devastate" anyone who would "allow" themselves to be used as a "vessel" for the schemes of Satan.

+ "Idols" are anyone or anything that one exalts above Me.

+ Whatever My children have "obtained" through the exercising of their faith cannot be "touched" by Satan. On the other hand "all" that is "acquired" by the hand of the flesh continually leaves Satan "inroads" to those things and, in one form or another, he will eventually "devour" it. Truly I say to you, as My children guard themselves from idols [1 John 5:21] I shall surely "multiply" the seed they sow; place My desires in their heart to fill the space left empty by their "previous (lustful) desires, and I shall fill their lives with superabundant blessing [spirit, soul, body and financially] . Thereby, meeting the very deepest desire of their heart - to love Me with every fibre of their being.

[NOVEMBER 27th 2006]

+ The "wicked" do not believe in "last days"!

+ A "cluttered" life is like spiritual quicksand.

+ "Perfect intolerance" is the perfect by-product of an absolute and abiding love.

+ My holy apostles and prophets shall go forth and minister powerfully a deep and profound revelation of "the inner chamber" [a revelation of My desire for a deep and intimate relationship with each one of My children]. It is the "reception of this revelation by those of My children who truly love Me that is the prerequisite to one abiding in the "fulness" of their inheritance in Christ. All those who are quick to receive, and measure fully the words that I speak through My holy apostles and prophets - concerning the "inner chamber" - in this hour shall be radically changed within by both a superabundance of "revelations" and an outpouring of My divine blessing - both within and without. And not only shall they become a "sign and wonder" to all those who cross their path they shall be a "sign and wonder even unto themselves.

+ Perfect obedience is nothing more or nothing less than acting on a "revelation" of My Word in accordance with the unction of My Spirit.

+ Every time that one of My children leans upon their own understanding it is a violation of the "law of love".

+ One is not going to abide in the "fulness" of divine prosperity apart from abiding in the Spirit of wisdom and revelation.

+ Apart from abiding in perfect obedience a "spirit of condemnation" shall always have "ground" to work in the lives of My children.

+ To the degree that one of My children "attempts" to maintain "control" in any given situation it is to that degree that they shall themselves be controlled by a "spirit of anxiety".

+ Divine prosperity must not only be taught from the standpoint of perfect obedience it must be walked in from that very same position.

JESUS:

+ Everything that I did in My earthly ministry was the direct product of "revelation".

EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

[NOVEMBER 28th 2006]

+ If one does not abide in the supernatural peace that passes all understanding then they shall surely be found seeking, in some way, a "counterfeit peace" by means of their own understanding.

+ Where there is "fleshly control" there is no room for faith [love].

+ When My children "allow" the spirit of the world and the spirit of rebellion to formulate their schemes against them continually then it is certain that it will cause their heart to be hardened to a continually greater degree.

+ Seek the truth; find it; believe it.

+ As My children "saturate" their hearts with My Word THEN their confession  [the words that they speak resulting from that saturated heart] shall result in the manifestation of the fulness of "salvation" [soeteria - the deliverance from every temporal evil] - both in their own lives, and in the lives of all those who cross their path.

+ One cannot minister My Word from the "position of sin" and expect those who hear them to be delivered from their "position of sin" [bondages].

+ Until My children come to that place - by their own volition - wherein they have "both feet" planted firmly in My Kingdom then I am hindered to a "certain degree" in the renewing of their minds.

+ There are many who minister My Word that have "allowed" themselves to be influenced and controlled by a spirit of self-exaltation, and thus the spirit of the world is promoted in the midst of the congregations rather than the Spirit of truth and the Kingdom of Heaven!

+ There is no "power" [authority] in fear for all true power ["exousia" - denotes freedom to act righteously] has its source in love.

+ Any word or action which proceeds from unrighteousness will always be found, in some way, to be "suppressing" the truth [Romans 1:18].

+ Every one of My children must come to the deep realization that a life of "self-denial" is a blessed life and that a life of "self-indulgence" is a cursed life [a life of bondage].

+ It is through an absolute faith and perseverance that My "greatest blessing" [empowerment] is bestowed upon those being interceded for.

[NOVEMBER 29th 2006]

+ "Failure" is perversely gratifying to the soul of one who is bound by a "sin-consciousness".

+ True love does not "agree" with anything that is apart from My Word [Will].

+ To the degree that one gives Me control in their life it is to that degree that they do not "attempt" to control the people and the circumstances around them.

+ One is not going to gain much revelation knowledge if they do not maintain - through a perfect diligence - the deep heart desire to walk in love at all times.

+ Always remember, My beloved ones, that perfect wisdom and perfect love will always be "vindicated ultimately" - regardless of "any" reaction or circumstance initially.

+ Any word or action "provoked" by a spirit of self-exaltation immediately shuts off the flow of love out of one's heart.

+ "All "mental ascension" is self-serving.

+ Accusations and condemnation are always rooted and grounded in a "lie"!

+ All those who are in positions of authority in the "world" are held captive by the spirit of antichrist and they exude (manifest) in all they do a "false righteousness" and a "counterfeit morality" before the people. They pride themselves in their "political correctness" but truly I say to you, their "politics" are not of Me and therefore, as it is written, My wrath shall be revealed from Heaven against all their ungodliness and their unrighteous, for surely in their unrighteousness they "suppress" the truth (My Word)!

+ Truly I say to you, the end for Satan and his schemes is near! Fix not your eyes on "flesh and blood", My beloved ones, but rather continue on in a perfect love for truly I say to you, as you abide in perfect obedience, you shall surely pursue the Enemy, and in pursuing you shall overtake, and in overtaking you shall "recover all", and in recovering all many "captives" shall be set free.

+ One cannot have "too much" of the Holy Spirit!

+ "Eventually" every one of My children must come to that place wherein they will not allow themselves to be controlled by a "spirit of self-justification" (self-vindication)".

+ "Self-indulgence" is any word or action that ignores the revelation of the Word and the unction of the Holy Spirit to gratify the "dark motives" of the soul and the fleshly lusts of the body - "anything" that places the soul or the body "above" the spirit-man.

+ It is time to bring all of My faithful ones together.

[NOVEMBER 30th 2006]

+ As far as "others" are concerned the "carnal mind" (the mind of the "flesh") has but one continual concern: "Are you in agreement with "me" - and "my" motives?

+ Every time that one moves - in any way - because of the "fear of what others think", then they are exalting "flesh and blood" above My Word (Will).

+ All revelation is received from the position of "resurrection and ascension".

+ The "Cross" is a state of heart before Me.

+ The more one abides in a "righteousness-consciousness" it is to that degree that "boldness" will be manifested in their lives.

+ The Word that is "preached" in this last hour is not being put forth for the purpose of "entertaining" or "amusing" My people. It is for this one purpose, and this one purpose only: that they might come  to walk [abide] in the "fulness" of their inheritance in Christ.

+ There are only two places a "desire" has its origin: the "flesh" (soul and body) or the Holy Spirit abiding within the spirit-man. The latter "desire" is always a product of "revelation". The former is a product of "sense-knowledge".

+ "Pressure" should not be something that My people fear for it will always expose "any" ground of fear (self-desire) and that is a good thing. As one begins to realize that, then they shall also realize that any "pressure situations" that arise shall only serve to bring the true (pure) heart) even closer to Me - and that too is a good thing.

+ I do not lead My children "into temptation". I lead My people in the paths of righteousness. Temptation "comes" by the hand of the Devil!
