EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER
                                                                 [OCTOBER 1ST 2006]

+       It takes a will "aligned" with My will for one to be  set free.

+       The present darkness that has "engrossed" the world is "blinding" to all who would abide there.

+       All continued "ignorance" is the product of a hardened heart.

+       If you love Me you will obey Me, and if you are obeying Me you will surely be loving Me to the greatest degree.

+       True praise" is the manifestation of an absolute faith, working through an absolute love, in the heart of one wholly given to Me.

+       All those of My children who are "carnally-minded" make themselves an enemy of all those who proclaim the truth in love.

+       If one does not put themselves in a position wherein their "spirit man" is continually in dominance over their "flesh" (soul and body) then they shall be "forced" to lean upon their own understanding in some way.

+       One cannot live for themselves to "any" degree, and expect to be "knit together" in love.

+       True faith is never anything less than an "absolute" dependence upon My Word - through a perfect obedience [a revelation of My Will and the total empowerment of My Spirit].

+       There are no "small or insignificant" details in this last hour!

+       The lies of Satan never become a "serious matter" until someone believes them.

+       To the degree that one of My children separates themselves from My Word, it is to that degree that they do not have a revelation of what love (My character and personality) is.

+       All "true" giving is motivated by the Spirit of love [obedience].

                   EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER
                                                     [OCTOBER 2nd 2006]

+       The "only" way My children are going to understand the "Cross" and the spirit thereof, is to give their heart "wholly" to Me! For any "holding part back" will only serve to "muddy" and darken their "knowledge" of what the Cross truly is! It is only a "perfect obedience" that will allow My children to receive the clear and abundant revelation of the Cross that they need to fulfill the ministry that I have called them to.

+       Two inherent tendencies of the "flesh" that need to be burned out by the severing power of the Spirit of the Cross: self-dependence [self-sufficiency] - the viewing of anything else apart from My Word and My Spirit as a means to My children's sustenance in the earth. Secondly: the "belief" that they, apart from Christ, are in "any" way capable of carrying out any aspect of My will.

+       One cannot "maintain" fear and not walk in darkness.

+       It is time to do great things!

+       I created you for "perfection.

+       A "passive [inactive] faith" equals fear and mistrust.

+       Knowledge and "intelligence" not tempered by love are a dangerous thing.

+       Why should My bondservants and handmaidens be concerned with what people may "think" of their ministry when they "know" in their hearts by faith that whatever I have said and done through them in their obedience is "always" for the greatest eternal benefit of the one(s) they have ministered to?

+       My people must stop "wasting" their words.

+       If one of My children "maintain" sin in their life then they shall continually nurture a "sin-consciousness". On the other hand, if one of My children abides in perfect obedience then they shall continually nurture a "righteousness-consciousness", and thus they shall go on to walk in the fulness of the authority that is theirs in Christ.

                    EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER
                                                                   [OCTOBER 3RD 2006]

+       My children need to go from their "time of prayer" into perfect obedience,  and from perfect obedience into their time of prayer.

+       There are many of My children who "believe" that they are facing the proper way but, in reality, their backs are facing toward Me.

+       If one continually eats too much then their spirit-man cannot remain in its proper position over their soul and their body.

+       Only a fool attempts to "justify" foolishness.

+       If one of My children stop to "consider" for a moment - after having received a "revelation" from Me of any aspect of My will - then that "hesitation" will open a door to unbelief, and they will be convinced - through their own understanding - that to "obey" would not be "profitable". For truly I say to you, the "goals" of the flesh are not the same as the goals of the S(s)pirit! Therefore, let every one of My children be found guarding their heart with "all diligence"! For it is truly a dangerous time - and only those who are "wholly given" to My highest purposes for their life and ministry shall be able to both see and understand "all" that is around them in this most critical hour.

+       A "little leaven" (ground for fear - unrighteousness) is a "catalyst" for sin.

+       There is no active fear in a heart wholly given.

+       There is no end to the power that is at your disposal to set the captives free!

+       As My handmaidens and bondservants go forth in perfect obedience the anointing that abides within them shall flow forth with great power, and it shall "slay" all the "plans of men" (self-desire - self-agenda) that it confronts. You have heard, in the past, of many examples in times of revival wherein My Spirit powerfully convicted those with "any" opposition in their heart toward My will, but truly I say to you, what you shall see, as I send forth My holy apostles and prophets in this last hour, shall be unmatched in the annals of history. And thus shall a "quick work" be done in the midst of My people, and My judgement(s) shall separate all those who truly love Me - and all those who do not! All things done in My Church in this last hour shall have as their "chief characteristic" the "power" of My presence; a power which knows no bounds - and which shall not settle for anything less than a clear manifestation of a "spotless and unblemished Church in the earth!

                       EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER
                                                                     [OCTOBER 4th 2006]

+       Every aspect of "manipulation" [control] has its root and source in fear.

+       All "true" ministry is rooted and grounded in love. Any so-called "ministry" that is apart from an abiding love is vain and futile and foolish in My sight!

+       My people can no longer be just a "voice", they must be a "presence".

+       All "self-indulgence" [self-desire] is enmity to the Cross of Christ.

+       The essence of all "true blessing" for My children is the sole intent on their part to have everything that they have received from Me, in turn, glorify Me to the greatest possible degree - through a perfect obedience on their part.

+       If one is "insensitive" to the Cross then how can one be a partaker of the "resurrection" and the "ascension" [the fulness of their authority in Christ]?

+       Work out the "fulness" of your salvation through a perfect obedience.

+       If Satan can control one's mind then he can eventually destroy their body.

+       If My people are not willing to receive a revelation from Me concerning "any" aspect of My will for their lives then they shall keep themselves in a position of separation from those who would surely minister the necessary light [revelation] needed for them to walk in the "fulness" of the ministry that I have called them to
[Proverbs 18:1-2].

+       The "flesh" is always in agreement with the lies of Satan because the flesh is a direct "by-product" of the nature of Satan. The regenerated spirit of a man is always in agreement with My heart and mind because it was created by Me - and I dwell there.

+       The Spirit of love supercedes the spirit of fear. There is no fear in love.

+       When one puts their trust and faith in My Word it is never a matter of "if" it is simply a matter of "when" it shall come to pass.

                                                                   [OCTOBER 5th 2006]

+       It is a "lonely road" for My bondservants and handmaidens - as far as the world is concerned. But truly I say to you, what is "lost" for the sake of the Gospel of the Kingdom is gained a hundred-fold in fellowship with Me - and reward both in this age and the ages to come.

+       It is abiding love that "perpetuates" perfect obedience.

+       The "flesh" is impatient, the flesh is unkind,  and is always jealous (covetous); the flesh brags and is arrogant; the flesh acts unbecomingly; it always seeks its own, it is always provoked by what it "deems" to be a word or act contrary to its well-being, it always takes into account a wrong suffered; the flesh consciously or unconsciously always rejoices in "unrighteousness", but never rejoices with the "revealed" truth; the flesh bears nothing for it seeks only that which ultimately concerns itself; the flesh "believes" nothing but that which it can perceive through the five physical senses; it is capable of believing only that it is omnipotent, and thus it seeks to exalt self in its every word and deed; the flesh rejects My wisdom - and "ever" considers it a threat to its own "exalted" position; the flesh hopes with a "natural" hope, and thus never has any true assurance of that which it hopes for; the flesh endures nothing for it is fearful and weak at heart. The flesh "always" fails!

+       Self-exaltation is "any" thought, word, imagination or deed which sets itself above My Word (will).

+       An integral part of presenting oneself a "living sacrifice" is to first set their heart and mind on high - bringing every thought captive to a perfect obedience - that their "spirit-man" might abide in dominance over the soul and body.

+       Part of the mandate of "blessed to be a blessing" is that when one is blessed they are able to prevent "misfortune" [tragedy] in the lives of others.

+       Abiding in fear drives one further and further into selfishness!

+       There is no such thing as a "righteous solution" in the "flesh.

+       The greatest inherent tendency of the flesh is to depart from grace!

+       The foremost desire of the "flesh" is to be gratified. The foremost desire of the "spirit" [inner man] is to be edified.

                     EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER
                                                                   [OCTOBER 6th 2006]

+       The "hard work" which many of My children pride themselves in is "inspired" by a source other than Me. If one's "goals" are apart from My will, then regardless of what seems to be a "good work" (hard work), their "motivation" shall always be found to be selfishness, and their "priority" their own "self- sufficiency". Hard work in the flesh to obtain one's goals is the "counterfeit" of the diligent obedience in the Spirit to My Word that I require. Indeed, the root of all "hard work" which is a product of the flesh has its source in "independence" [mistrust of Me] and rebelliousness (spirit of rebellion).

+       To the degree that one "holds part back" in their service to Me, it is to that degree that their "motivations" are tainted by a desire to seek something - regardless of how little - for themselves.

+       The only time that one of My children is overwhelmed by the "feeling" of not being able to do "enough" is when they have sin in their lives. For the very fact that they gave not given themselves "wholly" to Me [and therefore have not done "enough" in establishing their relationship with Me], is what causes the manifestation of their "helplessness" in dealing with their circumstances - and the circumstances of others.

+       You shall see many pressure-packed situations, My beloved ones, but truly I say to you, you shall rise above them all and remain faithful to Me throughout every trial and tribulation. You shall surely fulfill the fulness of the ministry I have called you to - both individually and corporately. For truly I say to you, no greater love have I found in all the land!

+       It is the "responsibility" of the five-fold ministry to bring My people to the "knowledge" of the fulness of their inheritance in Christ - that is, the fulness of their salvation. It is "their" responsibility to both receive it and walk in it.

+       For one to effectually work the works of the Kingdom, they must be "dealt with" through and through.

+       The "forces of unbelief" are not greater than the force of love (power of love)! It is only the "impure vessel" that "allows" the strongholds of Satan to remain standing (even) in their presence. For if the "fulness" of My power is released through one of My "sent ones" then it is certain that something must "give", and it is also certain that no matter how "great" a manifestation of death and darkness one of My "chosen ones" is confronted with it can, in no way, remain standing as they abide in the place of "ascension [the fulness of their authority in Christ].

                       EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER
                                                                     [OCTOBER 7th 2006]

+       To the degree that one fellowships and communes with Me, it is to that degree that they are "in accord" with the deepest thoughts and intentions of My heart.

+       It is "self-confidence", or confidence in the self-life, that causes My children to be "presumptuous" in the carrying out of My will. It is that same self-confidence - or lack of confidence in My Word - that holds My children back from walking in the "fulness" of their inheritance in Christ. Self-confidence, or "lack of" the same, while one has not placed their full dependence upon My Word, is in no way, a positive thing; for it is still a product of the self-life and has its root in fear and pride. It is as My children come into that place of a full dependence upon My Word - refusing to be "moved" by anything that can be perceived through their five physical senses - that they will rise above all the "temporal schemes" of the Evil One, into the place of My presence, wherein they shall experience a "working revelation" (on going) of the fact that in that place of "abiding" in faith, love and obedience, the Evil One cannot "touch" them [in their heart]!

+       Regardless of the "task" I give [command] there is always a "commensurate" power (anointing) to carry it out.

+       The "flesh" (self-life) is always in "perfect enmity" toward My will.

+       Satan always "attempts" to get My "chosen ones" to quit before they even start to walk in the "fulness" of the ministry that I have blessed them with.

+       It is I, the Lord your God, who controls the "fulness of time" in any given situation and thus, it is an absolute dependence on My Word and a "perfect obedience" that brings one to the threshold of the "fulness of time" - having been perfectly prepared to then enter in. My children must not "second-guess" My timing - for I alone am the "All-Knowing" One, and truly I say to you, I have everything covered. That is, I have taken all things into a "consideration" that will cause the "greatest eternal benefit" of all those who belong to Me to come to pass.

+       As My children lay down their "entire" lives before Me THEN they shall become the perfect expression of My mind, My will and My emotions; for as they abide in My Word and My Word abides in them, they need have no fear of a "soulish reaction" - regardless of what Satan attempts to bring against them.

+       If any of My children do not have an "assurance" in their heart what My will is, then how could they ever "discern" [know] whether or not they are being used (held captive) by Satan or not
[2 Timothy 2:26]?

+       "The true "source" of all things is about to become evident!

                     EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER
                                                                  [OCTOBER 8th 2006]

+       For My children - My "called out ones" - to develop a close relationship with Me, there needs to be an "initial" separation from all "carnal" [emotional] attachments; for unless My children have put aside "all" of their "idols", they will never come into the "position" (ascension - abiding) which will empower and enable them to minister the truth in love to all who have crossed - and who will cross - their path.

+       If one of My children fears whether or not they "appear" successful in the eyes of flesh and blood, then it is due directly to a lack of "assurance" of who they are in Christ. It also points to the fact that part of their heart is being "held back"; and to the degree that this is so, it is to that degree that they seek the praises and approval of man more than the praise and the approval that issues forth from on high - as they continually "seek" to walk in a "perfect obedience".

+       If My children are truly trusting Me and depending upon Me for their "finances" then they will obey the instructions I give to them - regardless of what it "looks like" or "feels like".  For sometimes an instruction which looks like it is "fleshly" is of Me, and sometimes that which looks like it is of Me is fleshly, and truly I say to you, only those whose hearts are "wholly given" to Me shall be able to discern between the two in this most critical hour!

+       My Word states, "Greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the world"
[1 John 4:4]. But how many of My children continually believe it and act upon it?

+       "Double-mindedness" [or a half and half "belief" in My Word], always "gravitates" toward an "absolute" darkness. It is only a heart that seeks to be "fully enlightened" [to abide in divine wisdom] that can continually avoid the snares of the Evil One.

+       All of My children must come to the "full realization" that I NEVER "misunderstand" them - or their needs.

+       If My children allow themselves to put "financial" needs above faith in My Word, then there will surely come a time when they will base their "choice" of when and who they "minister" to, upon their "idea" of a financial need - and thus they will depart from a perfect obedience into the "snare" of the Evil One. Always remember, that with every command I give, not only is there a "commensurate" power to fulfill the task in a perfect obedience, but there shall always be a superabundance of financial resources. The biggest "problem" My obedient ones shall face in this hour concerning finances will be where to "place" (give-distribute) the superabundance that they have been blessed with - to "establish" My true [Glorious] Church.

+       Truly I say to you, I am a "consuming fire", and all those of My children who forsake all to follow after a perfect obedience shall be "ablaze" with the flames of My Glory in this final hour. And as I send them forth into the midst of the congregations of My people ALL sinfulness and rebellion shall be both exposed and "thoroughly" consumed, and the fear [reverence] of Almighty God shall become prevalent throughout the land!

+       Did I not say that perfect obedience is the quickest way home? Therefore, from this, one can see clearly that it is only "fellowship" with the world that can "prolong" one's stay in the earth!

        ...."I do not consider my life of any account as dear to myself, in order that I may finish my course, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify solemnly of the gospel of the grace of God"....

                                                                                                                                        Acts 20:24 NASB

+       I require a ferocious [violent] faith of My people in this final hour!

"violent" - proceeding from or marked by great force (spiritual); the exhibiting of a fierce and intense passion (fervor); characterized by intensity of any kind;

+       I have no "problem" with one of My children going to a "doctor" if they find themselves in a "weakened state" and they lack - in that time - the "necessary" revelation to appropriate their healing that was "bought" (purchased) for them nearly two thousand years ago. But it is certain they must "first" acknowledge Me in order that "I" might direct their paths to a physician who "knows" Me and as they do I shall surely reveal to that physician what is "necessary" - in that time - to "stabilize" the "physiological" attack of the Evil One. The next step I expect "all" those in this position to take is that they "continually" seek a deeper revelation of My Word concerning divine healing and divine health for it is certain that as they do I shall be faithful to bring them to the place ultimately wherein sickness and disease can no longer "touch" them!

ANALOGY:

A child sticking a fork in an electrical outlet - severe shock;
 
A child touching a red hot element on a stove with their bare hand - severe burn;

compared to:

        A child of God speaking an "unwholesome" word (slander-reproach) against a man or woman of God - severe judgement;

        The Father spoke to me and said that those found guilty of this sin in this last hour
"would not do it again!

+       I speak the "end" from the beginning. The end is not the beginning and the beginning is not the end!

+       I am an exacting Father. This is in no way to be construed as something negative! Many have experienced the counterfeit through their own earthly fathers through a sternness, aloofness and a dominating control. But truly I say to you, I am Perfect - and I am true Love personified. All that I do, all that I command, and all that I say - at ALL times -  is for the greatest eternal benefit of each and every one of My children - without exception! All that I call My children to is rooted and grounded in their love for Me - and My love for them.

"exacting" - making rigorous demands of accuracy to fine detail;  precise; altogether accurate; to insist upon the performance or yielding of as a strict right or obligation; i.e. exacting obedience;

+       A "righteous intention" must be followed immediately by "righteous" (perfect - corresponding) action.

+       Life is life and death is death!

+       Any time you need to know what Satan is up to, My beloved one, only "acknowledge" that you need to know what is going on in your own life - or in the lives of those with whom you have to do - and we shall sit down together and we shall lay "the blueprint" before us, and then you shall go forth from our "interview" (face to face meeting) and by My power you shall thoroughly devastate every scheme that Satan attempts to set up against you and those I have given you. Truly I say to you, if Satan is persecuting those that I have given to you then he is persecuting you. If he is attempting to harm those I have given to you then he is attempting to harm you. So, therefore, go forth in the fulness of My power - and never settle for anything less than the full and total obliteration of Satan's schemes. Pursue the Enemy until he is consumed!

+       One should never allow themselves to lose sight of the "seeds" that they have sown.

+       If Annanias and Sapphira walked into the midst of My church at large in this time carrying the same sin as before truly I say to you, they would not "perish"!

+       Your words and "actions" were an "affront" to their "sensibilities" but in their heart they "know" that you are of Me!

+       For you to depart from the place of abiding would cause a "deficit" in the lives of many!

+       "Revel" in [enjoy] "hurting" the Devil!

VISION:

        I saw many standing alone wrapped in "chains" in this hour - and in an instant the "chains" [bondages] fell from them to the ground!

+       I desire great boldness in My children, My beloved one, a boldness so great (strong) that it shall cause great fear to rise up in the hearts of those who have forsaken Me. For it is certain that the Evil One attempts to bring My bondservants and handmaidens to a place wherein he can lure them into an attitude of compromise, and into fellowship with the world; and those who have "allowed" themselves to be deceived shall surely know that they have forsaken Me [My will] in order to please flesh and blood. Speak My words moment to moment - "knowing" that in all you speak, Satan will be defeated in the lives of those who will hear your words.

                       EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER
                                                                   [OCTOBER 11th 2006]

+       There is a direct relationship between the cleansing from a sin-consciousness and a "self-consciousness". As My children put themselves in a position to be "saturated" with My Word, they shall be cleansed from all consciousness of sin and all sin-consciousness, and thus a "God-consciousness" [righteousness-consciousness] will continually override any self -consciousness.

+       As My children go forth into this "final conflict" they can be "radical" (extreme) in the carrying out of My will against all the forces of evil - without "touching down" into carnality.  For never has mankind experienced My presence in the way they are about to experience My presence, and because of this the "power of love" shall shake the "prideful and arrogant" foundations which are the result of believing the lies of the Evil One, and all those who desire to be delivered from the bondages of "human love" shall be delivered through the "reception" of a most glorious revelation of true [divine] love.

+       The only knowledge that My children "need" to have in this last hour is a knowledge (revelation) of My will for their lives. For the seeking after any other "knowledge"  apart from this [the mind of the flesh and the darknened wisdom of the world], surely betrays a desire in them to live for themselves - and to be esteemed in the sight of man!

+       Many of My children have failed to "draw the line" between their own perfect obedience and the superabundance of finances I desire them to have - as they carry out their ministry in the earth. And because of this they get caught up in a "passive waiting" for Me to do something on their behalf, apart from their walking uprightly before Me. All those who have truly humbled themselves before Me know that if there "seems" to be any kind of "lack" it relates directly back to one thing and that is: they are in some way "entangled" in sin! For those who dwell in the place of abiding "always" know the difference between "My time" for the finances to come through, and "allowing" the Evil One to set up "hindrances" and strongholds where the finances that are rightfully theirs are concerned.

+       All those who sow material blessings into the ministry of those who sow an abundance of spiritual blessings in the hearts of My people are "equally valuable" to the establishment of My "true" Church. Indeed, each one of My children has their part to play in the establishment of My "spotless and unblemished" Church. For perfect obedience is perfect obedience, and there are no tasks or works which can be judged greater or lesser when one "complies" to that which is their "portion" in Christ - through a perfect obedience.

+       There is no "comprehensible" limit to that which I can do through one of My children whose spirit man is kept in an absolute dominance over their soul and body.

                       EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER
                                                                    [OCTOBER 12th 2006]

+       To "love one another" means to continually seek My best for the one being loved - through a perfect obedience.

+       For two of My children to truly be in "one accord" - that is, in perfect agreement concerning any aspect of My will - they must "both" have received a revelation from Me. I have made no provision for any sort of "unity" or "one accord" between My children based upon an agreement with the words one speaks or the actions one carries out - apart from a "revealed knowledge", which is always the result of a close and intimate fellowship with Me.

+       Many of My children still practice an "adherence" to the words and actions [righteous and unrighteous] of My "leaders" without ever having put themselves in the position to gain an "assurance" in their heart that that which they are adhering to is in "perfect accord" with My will, and thus when a time of "crisis" comes, they will always turn and "blame" (accuse) those that they "ignorantly" followed, for their "troubles" - troubles which are a direct result of their own failure to "abide" in My Word [Will].

+       Every one of My "true" delegated authorities shall always have as one of the chief marks (characteristics) of their ministry, a strong and continual "exhortation" to all those who cross their path, to draw near to, and abide in My Word. And truly I say to you, to the degree a "delegated" authority departs from this practice, it is to that degree that they themselves have drifted apart from the close and intimate fellowship with Me that alone can keep them from being "used" by the Evil One to "mislead" My people to some degree.

+       Many of My children are constantly looking for a "new challenge" without realizing that I challenge them - by My Word and My Spirit - to a perfect obedience every moment of every day.

+       If you will judge yourself in light of the "law of love" THEN you will be slow to criticize and judge "unrighteously" all those who are used by Satan to persecute you, and quick to obey My Word and the voice of My Spirit in order to "effect" a thorough repentance in those who have sinned against you.

+       Any "revelation" of authority apart from the Spirit of love is dangerous.

+       All natural "expectation" is the product of a "natural" hope. All supernatural [holy] expectation is the product of a supernatural hope [revelation].

+       The essence of the true "spirit of the Cross" is: absolute dependence upon Me with no reliance upon self.

+       The "feelings" that accompany "true love" are far greater than the "greatest" of feelings that the flesh could "conjure" up.

+       Love and obedience are inseparable, for it is obedience to My will (Word) that gives Love its "outward manifestation.

+       Divine faith is a product of Divine love. A  desire and a seeking after "self-sufficiency" is the product of a "natural" faith working through a "human" love (love of self).

+       To the degree that one is abiding in Christ, it is to that degree that they are "doing their best".

+       When the "flesh" "feels" good it has a tendency, in it fulness (fatness) to forget Me - and My Provision - and when the "flesh" feels "uncomfortable" it has a strong tendency (inclination) to formulate its own "temporary" (temporal) "stop-  gap, forsaking My provision in Christ in order to form its own "salvation" (deliverance). The true Christian life of absolute faith working through an absolute love [manifesting in a perfect obedience] is not found in thoughts and feelings, but deeper than where one can "see or feel" - that is, in the abiding life of My Spirit in the spirit of every child of Mine.

+       "Boredom" is a symptom of a hardness of heart towards Me, a hardness of heart caused by a degree of conformity to the world and the enmity that that conformity produces. For when one of My children conforms to the ways of the world to any degree, it is to that degree that "self" is on the throne of their heart. If one experiences "boredom" then it is certain that they have "wilful disobedience" in their lives.

+       Picture a "bank" somewhere that would exchange the (written) words contained in the "writings" [and also the teachings] that I have blessed you with for "money"; and you gathered up the writings and the teachings, and proceeded to go to this establishment, and you walked up to one of the "tellers" and asked them to exchange the "seed" [the true riches] that you have brought for the "seed" that they have in superabundance - then you would "surely" find that the value of that which you presented would produce a "financial wealth" beyond your wildest imaginations. Truly I say to you, as you "diligently" sow the "seed" that I have given you (the writings and the teachings), and as My people begin to "partake" of the anointed words contained therein, then shall a "wealth transfer" begin to take place.  Only be diligent as "stewards" of the "seed" that I have already blessed you with - thus continually setting in motion the "law(s) of divine increase", and "supernatural explosions" shall occur everywhere - within and around you!

                      EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER
                                                                   [OCTOBER 14th 2006]

+       Any one of My children that have been walking in an "imperfect" service - up until this time - are fostering (nourishing) a growing restlessness deep in their "innermost" being, and in that place a deep dissatisfaction is "overrunning" the "plans" that they have held to. Continue on in fervent prayer for all of these ones that they might experience the "freedom" [perfect liberty] to do only My will.

+       One can never produce "eternal results" through fleshly actions. For indeed, "all" fleshly action is a direct product of a "wisdom" which is based in a discernment of only that which exists in the physical realm.

+       One's love is both tested and refined  continually as  they place themselves in the "crucible" of  perfect intercession (obedience).

+       If one attempts to "weigh" the carrying out of My will and that which is "offered" by the world (mammon), apart from the place of abiding, there will be little resistance to the "pleasures" the world has to offer and a great deal of resistance to obeying My will for their lives.

+       Everything that is "not profitable" for My children will eventually become both harmful and detrimental to their carrying out of My will. Therefore one should never "allow" the "wearing-down tactics" of the Enemy any beginning at all. For it is only in this way that My children can constantly remain in the place where the Evil One "touches them not". And not only as a "defensive" manoeuvre, but also from this place they can carry out the "offensive" schemes and plans I have for them to carry out against the kingdom of darkness.

+       The flesh is always seeking to "quell" the "perfect urgings" which rise up out of the spirit man on a continual basis.

JESUS:

        How few realize that the "bearing of the cross", [that is, obedience unto death - the laying down of one's self-life] is the path that leads continually to a "perfect fulfilment". Many still seek "fulfilment" through the "pleasures of sin" - that is, "any" action which is the product of an exercising of faith in one's own ability and not the exercising of faith and a "full dependence" upon My Fathers Word [Will]. It is foolishness to the world when they hear talk of a fulfilment which can be had apart from the "self-gratification" - a gratification which is the product of a prideful and arrogant heart. But truly I say to you, those who lay down the self-life and forsake "all" to follow Me, shall - in their fellowship with My "sufferings" - experience the fulness of resurrection life and ascension life [the fulness of My authority]. And thus shall they experience a "perfect fulfilment", a glorious fulfilment - a fulfilment experienced only by those who truly love Me.

                       EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER
                                                                    [OCTOBER 15th 2006]

+       To regret is to regress.

+       The first and foremost "task" of any true minister of Mine is to reveal My perfect will, with a view to the "hearer" instantly integrating (assimilating) the "given word" into their own lives - through a simple and pure obedience to it.

+       There is no greater love than to do My will and no greater hatred than to "depart" from My will!

+       For one to take offense at My perfect will indicates that the one who has taken offense is - in some way - in "alignment" with the lies of the Evil One.

+       I am a God of "clarity".

+       It is certain that each one of My children are  going to have to come to the place wherein first and foremost they are dependent upon the Anointing - which abides within them. This in turn will allow them to become proficient in discerning all those things which come forth from the Throne Room through My holy apostles and prophets - and every other person entrusted with the ministry of My Word.

+       I long for a people who move in the flow of My Spirit, not stopping to weigh their "physical" circumstances, but rather, who move boldly without fear - having come to the knowledge that I am their sole sustenance in the earth. And truly I say to you, they shall be blessed superabundantly in all that they set their hand to. For indeed their hearts and their minds are one with My heart and mind, and there is no "consideration" given by them for anything which is apart from Me;  and regardless of how the world looks upon My beloved ones in this final hour, they shall surely be astonished - and in their awe and bewilderment they shall come face to face with the Living God.

+       One's relationship with Me will determine the "quality" of their relationship with "all" those who cross their path. To the degree that one walks in "selfishness" (disobedience through fear) towards Me, to that degree they shall walk in selfishness (devoid of love) towards all those who cross their path.

+       Without perfect obedience there will not be the power necessary to bring "intercession" to completion. If sin (should it arise) is not confessed - and thus removed by the Blood of the Lamb - then My children will not have a "clear conscience" before Me and, thus, in their "shamefacedness" they will in no way have the confidence before Me and in Me to believe that which they are called to believe. The quality of "true" intercession and "true" prayer cannot exceed the quality of the relationship to Me, of the one who is praying.

                       EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER
                                                                  [OCTOBER 16th 2006]

+       It is not enough to remain "in grace", it must increase daily - through a continual accessing by faith [trust] in My Word.

+       "All "compromise" has its root in the "selfishness" [fear] of the one who compromises.

+       The so-called "witness" of many of My children is based on the principle found working in their lives: "Do as I say, never mind what I do!" - and this is an abomination to Me! For only that which has been "experienced" in one's life by the way of the Cross is considered acceptable in My sight as a true witness and testimony.

+       It is through the "power" of love that one shall be able to distinguish between My true servants and those who serve Satan. For it is union with the deepest element of My being [the deepest thoughts and intentions of My heart] that will cause those who truly serve Me to stand out from the "crowd", and truly I say to you, the mark of the Cross shall be emblazoned on their every word and thought and deed. And so shall it be that "resurrection power" shall both lift them and keep them in the place of ascension - and in that place shall the Authority of Almighty God manifest "Himself" continually on their behalf!

+       The concept of "perfect obedience" is little more than a fleeting dream to the vast majority of My children walking in "service" to Me. I have no need to speak at length to you of the root motivation behind their failure to comprehend "My" ability to empower and strengthen them in "all" the things which I have called them to do. It has quite simply come down to this: is one willing to forsake "all" to follow Me? Is one willing to give their whole heart to Me? Is one truly willing to do all of My will at all times? Even the most ignorant of those who are truly willing to do all of My will in this hour shall know and understand and have the light needed to bring them step by step to the place wherein My requirement for perfect obedience in "all service" is comprehended. The revelation of "perfect obedience"  shall be a reality in their daily lives - without the striving and struggling and presumption which characterizes most so-called "Christian service". There is no other line and no other measure by which My will shall be carried out in the earth, and by which My people shall come into the fulness of their inheritance in Christ. Has it not always been this way?

+       What kind of "gospel" is being preached that keeps many of My children from even desiring to be freed from their bondage?

+       It is an "affront" and an abomination to Me for one to "pray", for the sole purpose of observance by others, and a sense of so-called "duty".

+       At a time when many of My "handmaidens and bondservants" should be contending for the souls of the many with a "holy violence", they are contending for the "right" to remain, to some degree, on the "broad path of destruction" in their own lives. Because of these things, those of My handmaidens and bondservants who seek to walk in perfect obedience ABOVE ALL ELSE shall be called upon to bear the "burdens" of those who have become "unknowingly", enemies of the Cross. What this means shall be borne out daily in the lives of My faithful ones - and many captives shall be set free because of their faithfulness.

+       There is no greater manifestation of a "child's" love for their parents then in an immediate and unquestioning obedience. Is it not the same where My children are concerned?

                       EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER
                                                                   [OCTOBER 17th 2006]

+       The number one priority of My handmaidens and bondservants is not to meet the needs of My children; for truly I say to you the needs of all My children are already met in Christ! Therefore, it is as My faithful ones minister unto Me as their first and foremost priority and maintain that "perfect fellowship" with Me that My heart so desires, that they shall be "pure" vessels of truth and light that shall lead My people into the fulness of their inheritance in Christ.

+       It is a time now when the "arrogance" of all those who have hardened their hearts towards Me shall now "surface" - and begin to manifest itself "uncontrollably". For, indeed, out of the abundance of the heart the mouth shall speak, and if it has not been "My" Word placed in their heart then they shall speak the "dictates" [lies] of the one they have "allowed" to hold them in bondage. And not only shall they be found fighting against Me but they shall be found fighting against each other to such a degree that every one of their "plans" shall surely fail.

+       Every work which I call My people to must be done in the "Spirit of the Cross", for without the denial of self to "apprehend" the revelation of My will needed to carry out the task, then the "tasks" which are carried out "in My Name" shall have absolutely nothing to do with Me. Behold! As I lay bare the "works" of each one of My children through the consuming fire of My Spirit there shall not be even one unrepented of word or action which escapes Me, and you shall once again be able to clearly distinguish that which is of Me and that which is not of Me; those who have served Me and those who have not served Me.

+       As the Word becomes "all" in My children's lives, they no longer are involved in any way in a "false judgement", but rather they become one with Me, and therefore their "entire lives" become a "judgement" upon all those who cross their path. To the righteous they are a blessing - a sign of continual "assurance" that My word is indeed true, and working on behalf of My people; and to the prideful and rebellious, they are a constant source of "irritation" and conviction (of sin), not through any "particular" word or action or silence, but by the presence and power of My Spirit, Who abides within them. Thus, you can see clearly from this the true "essence" of the "spotless and unblemished" Church, and the power that shall be released through My people as they "lay down their lives" to follow Me.

+       I ["True" love-Wisdom] never fail to obtain "My" goal.

+       The only "power" found in "lies" is the power to deceive minds and harden people's hearts to the truth; but the power found in truth is an "absolute" power which, when stood upon, will vindicate completely those who have been slandered and lied against. In other words, regardless of how many "lies" are spoken against those of My children seeking to walk in perfect obedience, those lies shall be exposed - and "severe" judgement shall come upon those who have not only been Satan's vessel for the lie, but also upon those who, through their foolishness have listened to and believed and even "fuelled" those things which have been spoken in darkness.

+       This is not a time for "sympathy" (agreement) with anything which is apart from Me.

                       EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER
                                                                    [OCTOBER 18th 2006]

+       Fear works by selfishness; faith works by love.

+       The desire to hold and maintain any "preconceived" notion has its root in the seeking of a "false security" - which in turn has its root in a deep and abiding mistrust of My Provision. Therefore, as My bondservants and handmaidens go forth in this last hour, they must diligently guard against anything which is the product of fear - and the way to do this is to keep their eyes fixed upon Me; for as they do so, all those things which are going on around them shall not become their "reality". Through faith in My Word they shall both transcend all fear, and be victorious in all their "paths".

+       One must "take" and "hold" a thought which has proceeded forth through the "unrenewed" mind [the mind of the flesh] in order to make a provision for the flesh.

+       My children should never be caught in the position of being surprised [by the Enemy].

+       If one does not seek the "deep things" of Almighty God then they shall not know the "deep things" [schemes]of Satan.

+       In  reality, it is not the Devil who is "responsible" for killing My people before their time. It is the lack of revealed knowledge, and the believing of the "lie" that he has placed in the mind. For truly I say to you, if one chooses not to believe the lie and, thus, chooses to stand on My Word then "death and darkness" are surely rendered helpless
[Hosea 4:6].

+       If My children will listen to Me I will make them prosperous - both spiritually and financially. I am not opposed in any way to their being financially prosperous; I am only opposed to their being "covetous" and self-serving in that.

+       There are many of My children who continually glorify Satan in their fear (pride and rebellion)! Because they have not separated themselves unto Me, and because they have not made My Word "final authority" in their lives, they remain in bondage, tools and pawns of the Evil One, workers of iniquity, rather than workers of righteousness. Truly I say to you, this "corruption" has spread even to the "so-called" hierarchy of My church. Indeed, there are many "old" prophets in the midst of My church - those whose hearts have succumbed to the evil temptations of the "lower life",  and because of this they have forsaken "absolute [perfect] obedience" in order to accommodate and gratify their own soulish desires; and yet, to the many - those who themselves have become entangled and encumbranced by the spirit of this world - they (the old  prophets) are still looked up to and followed. Yet, in reality, they have become "enemies of the cross of Christ". It is for this reason that I must bring My true [holy] apostles and My true [holy] prophets into the midst of My people; so that they might once again be established in and ruled by the "Spirit of the Cross"; in order that their deepest heart desire might be obedience to My Word [Will] - and that their greatest pleasure might be to please Me in all that they do and say.

                         ["Reflections" Of The Father’s Heart]

                                                        [OCTOBER 19th 2006]

+       There is no "risk" in speaking the truth in love; but it is only as My children have the needed "assurance" in their hearts - and the faith to know that "all" of the words which they speak have their root motivation in love that they will have peace as they speak the words I give them to speak. If one is truly separated unto Me - spirit, soul and body - then  they will have no regard whatsoever for what "flesh and blood" may think or for any circumstances around them. It is a "throne-relationship" which I desire with My children, and only those who humble themselves to possess this relationship with Me, shall be "fit" to handle properly My power and authority in this last hour. Indeed, there is no "risk" in speaking the truth in love - only "glory".

+       Everything that Satan "thinks" and "speaks" is a means to further "his" end. Everything that I have thought and spoken is a means to "My" end.

+       One of the greatest "temptations" which face My children daily is the lack of "feeling" which they might experience - that, of course, being the opposite to an  experience "consumed" with feeling and "passion". And so, they must guard against either extreme. For truly I say to you, whether one "feels" something or does not "feel" something, My Word remains unchanged as it pertains to the very situation which they are standing in faith for; and so, once again, it comes down to the matter of a moment to moment obedience on their part, a moment to moment trusting - regardless of what they may see or hear or feel or think.

+       Many things which take the name "Christian" are  fulfilling a "need" which is not of Me! But it is in no way My children's position to judge those who have fallen to the "snares" of Satan, but rather to pray for them, that they might be brought to the place of a "true" consecration - and, in that place, fulfill the calling that is upon their lives.

+       In the matter of providing for My children, I shall surely meet their "needs"; needs being defined as those things which they must have to both maintain their life, and which, in due course, will lead them into the fulness of My will [their precious destiny in Christ]. But truly I say to you, that if one's heart is not inclined to put My Word first - and thus not "allow" My Word to abide within them - then the "desires" (lusts) which they have will always be corrupt, with no thought or concern for My Kingdom. With this in view: "Would I ever be found meeting these  corrupt desires? No! Thus, it is as My children forsake their selfishness and abandon the lower life - through the diligent practice of and desire for "self-denial" - that their "needs" and their "desires" shall become one in Christ. And, thus, shall every desire - regardless of how unimportant outwardly it may seem - be met through the riches of My glory (in Christ). For is it not written "If you abide in Me and My words abide in you then ask whatever you "desire" and it shall be granted to you
[John 15:7]?

+       It is in the "appreciation" of the blessings which I bestow upon My children that I am most greatly glorified. It is to the degree that "self-denial" [obedience unto the death of the "self-life"] is practiced diligently that enables My children to "appreciate fully" those things which I bestow upon them - and thus it can be said that "suffering for righteousness' sake" [sharing in the sufferings of Christ] is what causes Me to be glorified the most. For it can be said that "suffering for righteousness sake" is nothing other than the opportunity for one to stand in faith upon My Word - through "circumstances" which are a direct product of the law of sin and death. In other words, ALL that they have been redeemed from through the precious Blood of My Son - and truly I say to you, it is this holy suffering [resistance] that brings forth the Spirit of Glory in the fulness of power
[1 Peter 4:7-14].

                   EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

                        ["Reflections" Of The Father’s Heart]

                                                  [OCTOBER 20th 2006]

+       All words spoken in the spirit of true humility (the Spirit of the Cross) shall always seek to lead My people into a deeper dependence upon My Word.

+       It is of no use for My children to be caught up in "time and space", for to the degree they walk in time and space - discerning all things through their five physical senses - it is to that degree that they shall walk in unbelief; and to the degree that they walk in unbelief, it is to that degree that they shall "allow" themselves to be affected by the "curse" of disobedience.

+       The one who "fixes" their eyes on the "counterfeit" [lie] to any degree, and who fails to replace their "notion" of that counterfeit will [word], to that degree they will remain in bondage to it. Whenever one sees a work of Satan they can be assured  that it is the counterfeit to what I had "first" intended. In seeking My face and the deepest thoughts and intentions of My heart - concerning all things which cross their path - My children shall no longer live in fear of the "counterfeit", but in the joy of the [revealed] knowledge of their Lord.

+       Those who seek to walk in the fulness of the ministry which I have called them to can retain no "natural" loyalty; for to the degree that they retain such loyalty, it is to that  degree that the revelation of My will for their lives shall become clouded, and in this "cloudiness" (darkness) they shall fall short of even receiving the "fulness" of the "grand [overall] vision" - which is the fulness of My will for their life and ministry.

+       One must never look for the "temporal" manifestation, but rather the eternal manifestation [revelation of My Will] - and, in an abiding "perfect" faith and love on their behalf, that which is eternal shall cause that which is "temporal" (in the circumstances of the one being believed for) to conform to it.

+       A great part of walking in love towards one another is a "holy" tolerance of the words and actions of others. Not a tolerance of things which are clearly apart from Me but rather a waiting upon Me to discern whether the word or action is of Me. Too many of My children are quick to "judge" unrighteously, and thus they become vessels of Satan - in a "spirit of condemnation and accusation". My servants must be slow to speak until they are enlightened in the way that is necessary for them to be a vessel of "blessing" to their brothers and sisters in Christ - whether that be to set themselves in agreement with what has been said or done, or to pray until that one is led into the knowledge of the truth, in a "spirit of true repentance".

+       Many of My children have not seen the "blessings" of the covenant, for they have not seen the "Cross". For unless one "sees" the Cross with the eyes of their understanding [inner man] they can in no way understand My methods and procedures and My perfect "Provision".

                   EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

                       ["Reflections" Of The Father’s Heart]

                                                    [OCTOBER 21st 2006]

VISION:

        The Father showed me a large "battlefield" and on it were two "opposing" forces. On the one side were the demonic spirits sent to hinder and stop those called to lead (serve) God's people in this last hour. These "evil spirits" were extremely ferocious and vile. On the other end of the "battlefield" there were a number (not all) of those called to a position of "leadership" in the Church in this last hour. Next the Holy Spirit opened my eyes to see a third group standing right in the middle of these two "armies". The Father spoke to me and said:

        ...."Contained in this group are My holy apostles and prophets. They have remained in the place of "perfect intercession" (faith-love-obedience) as vessels of "elevation" for those I have called to various offices of the five-fold ministry and who are now standing on one end of the "battlefield". Many in this group have "refused" to lay their lives completely down for their brethren, and thus they have been "held captive" unknowingly [although they should have known] - by the opposing forces on the other end of the battlefield. This "captivity" has caused them to be "blinded" - to a degree - by the deceiving tactics of the enemy forces and this has led to much misunderstanding towards - and even attack against - the very ones I have situated between them and the powers of darkness for both their protection and edification in this hour. The aim of Satan was to first cause "division" (strife) and then move in to destroy vast numbers of those called to minister in this last of the last hour. But My holy apostles and prophets have refused - at all cost to themselves - to depart from the secret place of My presence, and thus they have withstood every attempt of the Evil One to "de-elevate" them from that holy place of abiding in My love, and because of this many of those who have held to their stubbornness and rebelliousness shall be saved (delivered) for I shall lead them into a deep and thorough repentance by My great and awesome power - and thus they shall no longer "attack" those of My precious handmaidens and bondservants that I had sent to them for their protection and preparation to enter into the "fulness" of their calling [destiny].

        Now I shall remove this "hedge of protection" from the position it has been - up until now - and this will have one of two "immediate" effects on those in the battlefield. All those who are "truly" desirous of walking in the "fulness" of My call upon their lives must repent and leave behind "every" element of fear - and the "self-desire" that has "allowed" the Evil One to blind their eyes concerning My holy apostles and prophets, and the glorious plan I have in place to use them to "elevate" My Church into her "proper position" of authority and manifested Glory in the earth. As these ones repent I shall surely lead them to where they need to be and to those they are to be with - and in their obedience they shall take their "proper position" in the midst of the congregations of the righteous.

        Those on the battlefield who refuse to repent and who, in their arrogance and pride, have been deceived into believing that they are already in the centre of My will for their life and ministry shall begin to "perish" - these ones and all those "around" them - at the hands of the "forces" which are situated at the other end of the battlefield for I am now going to establish My holy apostles and prophets "together" in the fulness of their offices, in the midst of the congregations of the righteous [My obedient ones] - and they shall draw (elevate) all those who truly love Me high up above the "battlefield", and thus shall the True Local (Glorious) Church begin to be established throughout the earth.

        In the removal of the third group (My holy apostles and prophets) from "between" the other two groups, the demonic forces shall swiftly move forth to "overcome" those who had previously "aligned" themselves with them, in their rebelliousness, and they will not be able to withstand the attack simply because "they allowed" their weapons to "deteriorate" and their "faith" to become a product of their own "mental ascensions" - rather than the "revealed" knowledge of My Word. And in their "perishing" they shall continue to hold steadfast to their "belief" that they are suffering for righteousness sake when, in reality, they are not!

The third effect of the removal of the "protective hedge" shall be this:

        When this "new wave" (upper echelon) of evil spirits move forth against those still on the battlefield I shall - after a short time - "counterattack" these vile spirits with a view to their total exposure, devastation and destruction through My holy apostles and prophets - and all those who are "with them" (the remnant [Glorious] Church). They will "know" and come against "every" scheme of the Evil One, and this will include the exposure of the "religious spirits" that - up until this time - have had their own way to a "certain degree" in the midst of My people and because of this many captives to the "structure of religion" (form of godliness) shall be gloriously set free and join forces with those already walking as My "sons and daughters in the earth.

                                                                                                                                                    Amen.

VISION:

        Again, the Father showed me demonic forces on one side in the front and in the rear those holding fast to the traditions of men and the doctrines of demons. And I saw the "last wave" of the holy apostles and prophets moving forward in the will and plan of the Father. And they were encountering resistance from in front [hindering spirits] and "arrows" from behind. These "arrows" were the slanderous lies - and other self-exaltive activity - that were the by-product of being held captive by religious [lying] spirits. I then saw this entire body of handmaidens and bondservants be "caught up" above the battlefield and "instantaneously" these demonic forces moved forth "swiftly" and overcame "all" those who were "caught" in their rebellion against the Father and His Word. The Father spoke to me and said,

        "Tell my people to remember Korah's rebellion!"

                                                        [OCTOBER 22nd 2006]

+       It is time for the "cloak" of religion to be torn away. 

        It is time for the false gods and idols, which have captivated the hearts of the multitudes, to be destroyed.

        It is time for the harvest to be secured according to what each one of My children have sown to.

        It is time to both expose and remove from My church the "ministers of corruption and perversity", those who have both ignored and mishandled My holy Word.

        It is time for the multitudes to see the "living" Christ in a way which they have never been able to see Him before.

        It is time for the strongholds, which have continued to hold many of My children in bondage, to be destroyed.

        It is time for My apostles and prophets to "explode" on the scene and re-route the course of an adulterous and backslidden church.

        It is time for My love to be shed abroad in and poured forth through the hearts of the many.

        It is time for all the works of iniquity to be exposed.

        It is time for the revelation of My "sons and daughters" in the earth.

        It is time for the "fear of the Lord" to reign in the hearts of all those who profess their love for Me.

        It is time for those who have mocked and scorned My beloved Son, to perish at the hands of their own foolishness.

        It is time for the Body of Christ to awaken and arise.

        It is time for My power and My glory to fill the earth.

        It is time for death and its "lord" to be trampled beneath the feet of My beloved Son, never to arise again.

        It is time far those who truly love Me to take up their "cross" and thus deny themselves.

        It is time for faith and obedience to once again be established as the foremost priority in the lives of all My children.
                                                                                                                                            Amen

VISION:  The Father showed me airplanes [powerful jets] landing one after another. These "airplanes" represented the coming forth of the true corporate ministries of the remnant Church [and also individual Christians raised up in the gifting of Kingdom finance] - and the finances [resources] they would give to the "true works" of God in this final hour, in order to establish absolute truth concerning the Glorious Church, the Kingdom and the "fullness" of our salvation [inheritance] in Christ.

The Father spoke to me and said:

+       "So shall it be in these days, My beloved ones, as I establish those who truly serve Me. For I shall pour out My blessings - both financial and otherwise - upon those I have raised up for such a time as this, and they shall literally turn the world upside down in their obedience with the aforementioned Kingdom finances. Satan and his forces will not be able to stand before My Glorious Church and, truly I say to you, they [and their strongholds] shall be continually devastated - both now and in the glorious days ahead. And, because of these things, many captives shall enter into a perfect liberty - a perfect liberty that will empower them to serve me with all of their heart.

                        ["Reflections" Of The Father’s Heart]

                                                        [OCTOBER 23rd 2006]

+       Many of My children are "more" concerned with confessing their sins against their brothers and sisters than with confessing their sin against Me; and although this may "seem" good outwardly, they have been brought to the point of confession through their fear of what man thinks and a deep desire to acquire their approval. Blessed is the one who regards "any" sin as first a sin against Me and lays their life before Me to be dealt with and cleansed from all that they have "allowed" to defile them.

+       In the past two thousand years, you have seen certain individuals and even small remnants (groups) of My people abide in a perfect obedience and you have seen the impact of their lives upon both the church and the "world". But it is certain that compared to what you are about to see, these lives - as glorious as they were - are just a "glimpse" compared to the "soon manifestation" of the Glorious Church through which the entire earth shall be filled with My Glory - a remnant of My people through whom the "former and the latter rain" shall be poured out as a "flood". There is no possible way for any one of you to fully comprehend "at this time" the "magnitude" of the "impact" that this outpouring shall have in one way or another on "every facet" of human existence before you leave the earth. Have I not spoken to you previously saying, "There is no limit to what I can accomplish through one who will diligently keep their spirit-man in dominance over their soul and body?"

        One then can "begin" to imagine what will happen in this earth when thousands upon thousands of My children begin to guard their hearts with "all" diligence! Certain hospitals shall "supernaturally" be emptied as My power flows down every hall way and throughout every room - driving out every sickness and disease and the "spirits" behind them. And the "spirit of death" - the final foe - shall literally be put to flight before the "continuous onslaught" of My children in this last hour!

        Even this slight glimpse into the time of the Glorious Church is "mind-boggling" apart from the Spirit of wisdom and revelation! And thus your only recourse, as My precious sons and daughters is to abide moment to moment in the "Spirit of wisdom and revelation" so that each one of you individually - as you are diligent to obey - can bring about the divinely ordained, corporate, glorious manifestation of the Body of Christ in this last hour. For My children to walk in anything less than "revelation" - moment to moment, day to day, would serve only to impede this most glorious outpouring. One thing that I have made superabundantly clear in My Word is this: in this last hour "all those" who "truly" desire to be completely freed shall be completely freed and all those who "refuse" to be freed shall abide in an ever increasing state of death, darkness and bondage!
        
        Therefore, let all those who truly love Me be diligent in their handling of My Word that they might "abide" in the place of absolute freedom - the secret place of My presence. For it is certain that where My Spirit is there is the "freedom" (liberty) to carry out the fulness of My will for your lives along with the "abiding power" (the Anointing) to set the captives free!

                       ["Reflections" Of The Father’s Heart]

                                                        [OCTOBER 24th 2006]

+       Love does not seek it's own; love seeks first the Kingdom - and it's establishment.

+       Every relationship must be "predicated" on what I have said and done, not what flesh and blood has said and done [past experience].

+       The principle of "leaven": .1% disobedience does not  = 99.9% obedience - it equals 100% disobedience - .1% error does not = 99.9% truth and accuracy, it = 100 % error [darkness] .1% unrighteousness does not = 99.9% righteousness, it = 100% unrighteousness!

+       My judgement is not on people [in themselves] but on sin and rebellion. For I love the people but I hate sin and rebellion.

+       Where faith is bold, fear is fearful!

+       The compromising of My "Word" is the most vicious - albeit subtle at times - act of selfishness and hatred towards one's fellow-man, because it takes "no" consideration for the one being ministered to. It only seeks the gratification of one's selfish desire to look after themselves first - in a spirit of self-glory.

+       True "courage" is the God-given ability and power to do the "righteous" thing - in any given situation.

+       If one does not continually "move forward" in faith and love and obedience in this most critical hour, then they shall surely find themselves going backwards in unbelief and darkness and disobedience.

+       It is as My bondservants and handmaidens walk "continually" in a state of perfect obedience before Me that the deepest thoughts and intentions of the heart [deepest heart desires] of all those who cross their path shall be brought to light.

+       I will surely reveal the deepest desires of My heart to all those who seek Me with a "view" to "committing" acts of righteousness.

                                                     [OCTOBER 25th 2006]

+       As My children abide in Me [in My Word] their spirit can be anywhere that I am.

+       No more shall the arrogant "freely" call that which is righteous, unrighteous - and that which is unrighteous, righteous.

+       The main reason why Satan fights so desperately to keep My children apart from the intimate fellowship that I desire to have with each of them is because over the ages he has seen the work that has been "effected" in them - a work which equips men and women, and even children, to destroy his works!

+       Unless one is exercising an "absolute faith" in My faithfulness to sanctify them "entirely", spirit, soul and body - by My power - then slowly but surely a "self- assuredness" shall rise up in their hearts. The moment that one stops exercising faith and trust in Me for "all" then "self-reliance" becomes the only alternative.

+       Those of My children who retain a sinful and  rebellious heart can, in no way, discern the movement [outpouring] of My Spirit in this last hour.

+       Evil and sin are all "wrapped up" in Satan just as righteousness is all "wrapped up" in Jesus Christ.

+       The strength of one's own "resolve" is insufficient to  accomplish the perfection of one's obedience unto God. For that "resolve" still retains the belief that "in itself" it can carry out My will, apart from an "absolute dependence" upon My Word and the strength thereof. Satan and his schemes shall never be defeated by one's resolve, but by an absolute faith an absolute dependence, and an absolute denial of self.

"resolve" - to decide or determine [to do something];

+       My children need not pray so much for an "outer" strength as an "outer" weakness - which constrains them to an utter dependence upon Me and upon My Word; for an "outer" strength which is a product of "inner" weakness leads one into an deeper dependence upon their own understanding - and presumption. An "inner" strength, the product of a strong, "well-fed", vibrant spirit, shall inevitably lead one into times (seasons) of great "outer" weakness, soul and body [transition] - which in turn lead one to a complete [absolute] dependence upon Me in all phases of their life (ministry.

                                                   [OCTOBER 26th 2006]

+       All true "assurance" comes from believing Me.

+       Bearing the burdens of others is an act carried out in the spirit, not the soul of a man. For to attempt to carry out this act in the "soulish" realm (mind, will emotions) would be to fall into the trap of the "Satanic counterfeit" and would constitute nothing more than anxiousness, worry and fear. As one truly "bears another's burdens" in the spirit, they effectually cause My power to be released on that one's behalf and it shall produce the necessary "change of heart" to cause them to set their feet on solid rock; and this intercessory prayer shall also push back the hosts of darkness working against the one being "ministered to".

+       If the demonic hosts can constantly attempt to harass and place the thoughts of the Evil One in the minds of people, would it not be "possible" for My angels to minister My thoughts?

+       Many things happen in the times of intimate fellowship that My children have with Me. First, they come into My presence and are thus saturated by it, whether they "feel" like they are or not. Secondly, I am able to reveal "mysteries" to a continually deeper degree to their heart in such a way that they gain the understanding needed to combat the lies and darkness which exist in the minds and hearts they will "encounter" and thirdly, in seeing the reality of My "salvation" and its fulness - and in My light seeing clearly the bondage and captivity of those who are apart from My Word - they shall "fearlessly" bear the burdens of these suffering ones, and through their [living] intercession cause them to be lifted up into the "fulness" of their inheritance in Christ.

+       As I seek to establish My spotless and unblemished Church in this last hour, one can in no way "look" out upon the masses of My children and see what needs to be seen. My next "key" move is the sending forth of the "final wave" of My five-fold ministry. In these days I am planting the "seeds" of knowledge and revelation in the hearts of "all" those who truly love Me and then as I send forth My apostles and prophets, speaking the deepest thoughts and intentions of My heart concerning My Church and My Kingdom, these consecrated and holy ones of Mine, through their continued "willingness" to do all of My will, shall know beyond a shadow of a doubt that the words which have been spoken through the apostles and prophets are mine, and they shall "freely" obey and conform themselves to My wisdom for My Church in this last hour, and thus shall the "true" Church which from before the creation of the earth was a "spiritual reality", become a "physical" reality, crashing down the boundaries of time and space, bringing the "true" light into the darkness, the holy into the secular and the sacred into the profane - kingdom against kingdom! There is much that many of My children have "mentally-ascended" to concerning "My" plan for the Church in this last hour, and unless they forsake their "own" ideas they shall never be in the "right place" at the "right time" to make the "glorious connections" which I have ordained far them.

+       The advent of the "last wave" of My holy apostles and prophets shall signal the beginning of the very end!

+       Always remember: honour is not "claimed", honour is "bestowed".

+       How quick many of My children are to "allow" money - "consciously or unconsciously - to take them out of the "love walk" they are called to.

+       Many of My children are still caught up in the "blessing syndrome"! By this I mean that they have set their sights upon continued "blessing" for themselves, and thus they not only hinder My ability to bless them but they lessen their "capacity" to be a blessing. For indeed all blessing that I direct toward My children is always given with a view to blessing others, and this blessing of others is directly linked to the "establishment" of My Kingdom. If any of My children lose sight of the fact that they are called to seek first the establishment of My Kingdom in righteousness, then regardless of how good their intentions and motivations look "outwardly"; and regardless of even how much so- called fruit they "appear" to bear, they will be nowhere near the place that I would have them be! Truly I say to you, every blessing that I have for My children is set out in a manner which will allow them to bring to all who cross their path those things which will allow them to experience My greatest "eternal benefit". In other words, although many consider themselves a great blessing to the church, they are not even on the same "wavelength" with Me!  In many cases what may seem to be a simple or "meaningless" instruction is in reality the door through which I am enabled to "pour forth" a superabundance of My blessing, and thus shall the needs of the people be met and thus shall the captives be set free! My children must never "allow" themselves to be caught "mentally ascending" to any aspect of My will for their lives; for it is through an "absolute faithfulness", even in the smallest details, that I am enabled to show Myself to the greatest degree.

+       All of My children who will seek only to "abide" in My Word shall indeed gain a deep, and most glorious, revelation of the "Blood" in this hour.

+       A question which each one of My children must ask themselves: "Is Jesus the Lord of the way they "feel" or is Satan the lord of the way they feel?

+       Divine healing and Divine Health are not a "treatment" but rather a "lifestyle" based solely on obedience to My purpose and plan for one's life and the exercising of an absolute faith in My Word alone for "all" of their needs.

+       Always remember: from a place of "passivity" one can always be "awakened" as they incline their heart toward Me; but from a place of "presumptuous activity" one may not "ever" recover from the "certain onslaught" of the Enemy in this last hour.

+       If any of My children "hold part back" and thus "allow" ground for a spirit of poverty and a spirit of lust to pervert their handling of "Kingdom finances" then they shall have rendered themselves "incapable" of receiving the "fulness" of the financial blessings that I have for them. Through the ground of fear, doubt and unbelief, a "spirit of poverty" will cause one to "hoard" their finances, and in others that same ground will allow a spirit of lust (self-gratification) to overpower them and they shall continually "squander" their "seed" on their own lusts. It is My will for each one of My children to be given "wholly" to Me, that is, to trust Me for their sufficiency in "every" aspect of their lives. Truly I say to you, to those who will let go the "reins" of their finances, I shall use them as a "clearing-house" for the establishment and the increase of My Kingdom in the earth. I do not speak to you of "hundreds" of dollars, but "thousands" and "millions" of dollars! For do I, the Lord of Hosts, do things in a small and paltry way, hidden in a corner? The answer is no! I shall not settle for the wealth that belongs to Me to remain in the hands of the sinner, and I shall supernaturally cause massive wealth, financial and otherwise, lands and properties, to be "released" into the hands of those of My children who are "wholly given" to Me, and I shall direct them how to use, and where to place, the superabundance of material riches "I" place in their hands. For too long many of My children have "fought" to preserve the blatant lies of the Evil One, concerning prosperity, financial and otherwise; but truly I say to you, that day is over! Yet there shall be "many" who still do not believe. And because they have not sought Me, and because they have forsaken My Word, they shall face financial ruin because of their continual exaltation of the lies of the Evil One "above" My Word. It is time for the Evil One to be "exposed" in each and every one of the strongholds he has been "allowed" to build in many areas of My church, and I shall send forth My holy apostles and prophets, and they shall teach My people the deepest thoughts and intentions of My heart, and My "true" Church shall be an amazing sign and wonder to the world for they shall give and give and give and give in the places I would have them give; and in so giving they will both expose and demolish the strong-holds of Satan and vast multitudes shall give their hearts wholly to Me.

+       To the degree that one is "self-centered", it is to that degree that they are need-centered.

+       My children must "maintain" the vision of "corporate warfare" - based on the "perfect obedience" of each individual member of the Body.

+       Every obedient word and action causes the force of love to be released in "every" direction.

+       The time has passed wherein My people can "pick and choose" from the words which "flow" out of TRUE apostolic and prophetic ministry! For to reject one word of the true apostle or prophet [and, indeed, all those who are wholly given to Me] is to reject "all" of their words. But the receiving of My words shall surely cause them to "touch" the deepest thoughts and intentions of My heart.

+       Always remember: time is "irrelevant" in the "eternal" work of My Kingdom. The only thing that one need consider as being "relevant" is abiding in My Word - unto a perfect obedience.

+       Relationships in the "flesh" amongst my people are "unholy alliances".

+       If one does not have a "clear" revelation of My love for them then they shall always, in some way, continue to seek the "approval of men".

+       What one "believes" is based on what thoughts they "habitually" take.

+       How many of My children know that their  reward "begins" in the earth and never ends?.

+       Obedience in "finances" is inseparably linked to a heart "wholly given".

+       My miracle-working power is only a "true" sign and wonder to those whose hearts are "toward" Me.

+       I am looking for a people who stand "ready" to obey.

+       To the degree that one speaks the truth in love, it is to that degree that persecution shall "arise" for the Word's sake. In the measure of intensity that one "ministers" the truth, in the same measure shall the intensity of the persecution be! Rejoice my beloved ones, for it is through this intense pressure and persecution that my glory shall abound! And indeed, the same intensity of my presence shall be made manifest in the midst of my people as you go forth in perfect obedience! Surely it is the power of my anointing (Presence) that shall break the yoke, setting the captives free and sparking the revival of holiness that shall bring my Church into that pure and spotless and unblemished state that I desire Her to be in.

+       You must diligently "pay the price," [self-denial] my beloved ones, in order that my children might be led into the "fulness" of their inheritance in Christ.

+       To the degree that one abides in my Word, it is only to that degree that they are "fit" to lead those that I have given them; but as one does abide in Christ, those that I have given them for the purpose of being led into the fulness of their inheritance in Christ, shall surely know "my Voice" through them, and shall fall in behind and follow their lead as they walk in perfect obedience.

+       Once one has "received" an anointing to carry out a task, from that "point" forth there can be no doubt as to their capability to accomplish the task. The only question that is left is: "are they willing"?

+       Satan is in serious, serious trouble - and it does not get any better for him!

+       Many of My children maintain a"spectator-mentality".

+       One can never hope or believe for the "complete and full" victory that I have for them if they wilfully retain and "maintain" sin in their lives (hold part back).

+       Satan cannot keep a "good  [pure] heart" down forever!

+       My Word states that the way of the "transgressor" is "hard" and not "easier".

+       The "small things" that are spoken of in Luke 16:10 may  be small by "appearance" but they are not small in importance where the Kingdom is concerned.
