CONFRONTING THE ENEMY
   You have been in one of the hardest spiritual battles of your life.  It has been an all-out spiritual battle.  
You have been involved in spiritual warfare.  That is the cause of your weariness – your exhaustion.  You are
doing the right things.  You have on all the armor.  You are carrying the sword.  But you are retreating.  You
take a defensive stance and hold your weapons and shield while backing away from the enemy.  
  Remember he has no power over you except what you give him.  You are the victor through Christ Jesus.  I
have already won the victory for you.  You need to face the enemy and command him to go.  Let him know that
you know that he is a liar and a pretender.  You can walk unafraid right into the battlefield, because you
carry the victory, you carry the authority of your God with you.  You are a warrior, with adequate armor on
assignment with a guaranteed victory through the cross.
   When you face the enemy and move out into the battle, the enemy will retreat!  He knows you have the
authority.  He has no right, no ground to stand on.  Chase him away with the My Word and the power of My
Spirit.


:2Sa 22:35 He trains my hands for battle;
Dt 20:2-4. When you are about to go into battle, ... Do not be fainthearted or afraid; do not be terrified or
give way to panic before them.  For the LORD your God is the one who goes with you to fight for you against
your enemies to give you victory”
:2Ch 20:17. You will not have to fight this battle. Take up your positions; stand firm and see x  the
deliverance the LORD will give you, O Judah and Jerusalem. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged. Go out
to face them tomorrow, and the LORD will be with you.

This is my first message to send out in 6 months.  Following the Word from the Lord you will find a personal
message from me.  Betty
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Rejoice!
Behold!  It is a new day.  It is a great and a terrible day.  It is a great and awesome day, for the I AM is
moving.  Rejoice!  It is a new day.
Hold on.  Hold tight.  Hold on to all that is good and wonderful.  Hold on to My Word and rejoice that I am a
faithful, merciful God.  I honor My Word.  I keep My Word.  Hold on to My promises in faith believing you
will see My hand at work.  Believe that I am bringing all things to fruition.
Let go.  Release and let go.  Let go of all that is not of Me.  Let go of all that does not pertain to My ways.   
Let go of all that hinders you in your walk with Me.  Let go of the past and reach out to what I am now doing.  
Reach out and grasp what is ahead.  I am doing a new thing in this new day.  Rejoice!
Be alert, My children.  Be watchful.  I AM is moving among His people.  I Am bringing justice.  I AM pouring
out My power on those who are seeking My face.  My love is power.  Walk in My love and find power as never
before – power to pray, power to touch, power to speak My word, power to walk in victory.  Rejoice!        
Diligently walk in My love, being ever alert and watchful for My moving.  Be ready for whatever I do. Do not
be like the Israelites, looking only for a rescuing King, a King who would come as deliverer and reign and
rule   They were unable and unwilling to accept a carpenter Deliverer riding into town on a donkey.  I'm
calling you to be ready to see Me in whatever form I choose to come to you; and accept what I am doing -
whether it meets your expectations or not.  I Am moving according to My plan.  I am not confined by your
desires or hopes.  I do so much more than you desire, or ask for on imagine.
  I say to you, Look for Me in whatever way I choose to come.   Be ready to move with Me in the direction I
choose.  Be ready to change direction quickly.  Be ready to change anything I speak to you about.  Be ready to
let go of anything I put My finger on.
  I Am preparing the way before you.  I AM straightening out the crooked places, I AM leveling the rough
places.  I am moving as I have spoken.  The new day is here.  You have been waiting and hoping for this day to
come.  The new day is here!  Rejoice!
    Behold it is a new day!  It is a new day and I Am doing a new thing!  Rejoice in the coming of My manifest
presence.  Rejoice in this new day of power and love.  Keep your eyes on Me.  Keep your focus on Me.  Look
up and rejoice!

OPPORTUNITY
This is the time to enter in – this is the time of a new beginning.
I am opening a new doorway for you.  This new way is not an easy one, but it will be rewarding.  By My Spirit
you will be led into deeper intercession.  And I will teach you much that you have not learned before. I will
now begin to show you things you have asked for and longed for.
But it will not be for yourself alone – I will give you opportunities, open doors to share My truth with others.
I will open the doors – you open your mouth to speak from what I have placed within you.  I know your
innermost thoughts.  You need only to pray  and walk in obedience to be kept in the center of My highest and
best will for your life.  Pray and obey – you will find new opportunities to walk in My power, My love under My
direction

Substitutes vs. the Real Thing or What Is Your Pet?
Many of you have tried new churches, or have visited a church or are in churches or groups today that you
went to in response to an invitation from someone.  But it is not where you need to be. Some of you are in
churches where you are not being fed and are not sharing what you have.  Some have given up and quit looking
for a church because you have become discouraged.  Do not give up.  This is not the time to forsake the body
of the Bride of Christ.  Now is not the time to go out on your own.  The body of Christ is the body of Christ –
the body is vitally connected to the Head – Jesus Himself.  If it were not the body would die.  It is the same
as the branch being joined to the Vine.  It is a vital – life giving connection.  Without the connection there is
death. Each branch must be connected to the Vine to live.  Each of you must be connected to the body of
Christ in vital life giving union.
It is time to find your place in the body – to find your Learn to ask Me before you accept every invitation or
just go out “tasting” of this and that.  It is not time to “try out” a place or a group of people.  Sometimes
when you choose to go on your own without asking Me if this is My way for you, you will encounter those with
impure motives who would seek to trick you and take advantage of you. Ask Me if that is where I want you to
go.  You do not need to go every place that looks good or sounds good or because someone asks you to go or
because there is something there that attracts you.  Seek Me first. Ask of Me and I will show you the way
you should go.
I have a plan for you and a place for you.  And I have places for you to go out to – to visit that will equip you
to go on your way, places that will enrich you and build you up so that you are more effective.  But not all the
places that are available to you are right for you.  Not all the teachers and leaders, pastors and prophets
are those I’ve chosen to feed and nurture you.
You will find churches and groups that are infantile in their relationship to Me.  They are unable to help
others to grow with Me because of their own immaturity.  My children need to grow up and come into
maturity.  Be willing to take responsibility to seek out the best food that will help you grow.  Seek Me for the
place that I want you to go to worship Me.  Seek Me about the leaders and teachers you receive from.  Take
responsibility to seek out food for yourself, do not depend on someone else to feed you.  Do not depend on
others to seek My face for you.  I want you to learn to hear My voice.  My sheep hear My voice.  If you are in
relationship to Me you are My sheep.        
Many of My people are preoccupied with pets in the church.  The pets are a substitute for something that is
missing in the people’s lives.  Some people get pets because they cannot or do not have children.  They
substitute pets for children.  Some get pets because they are single and lonely.  Some get them as they
grow old and become lonely.  They are trying to fill the void in their lives. But these pets are substitutes for
Me and My presence.
Many in the church today have sought out pets and they feed them and nurture them instead of nurturing a
deeper relationship with Me.  They have pet doctrines, pet theories, pet beliefs and pet methods.  They
feed and nurture these pets.  The pets are thriving and multiplying while their relationship with Me is
growing cold and dormant and they are mal-nourished.
I have much better for My children than their pets.  Seek Me.  And ask Me to reveal what you have adopted
as a pet.  Ask Me to reveal your pet doctrines, beliefs, theories and methods, even your pet expectations.  I
will show you if you will seek Me.  Do not be content with your pets – ask Me for more truth, more revelation,
more comfort, more guidance.  I long to lavish My presence on you and teach you My ways.  Toss out your
doctrine, your theories and your fleshly ways of thinking and serving and seek My way.

(--- NOTE--- I am so glad to be back at my computer after such a long time away.  I hope you all had a
wonderful, blessed Christmas season and are experiencing God’s presence and blessings in this new year we
have entered.)
God Loves You and He Has A Plan
God has a plan for each of us. He really does.  And His plan is a good plan.  We just need to seek Him about
finding and following His plan, asking for His perfect will and His way in our life.  A lot has been spoken and
written about God’s plan for us. Much use has been made of the Scripture from Jeremiah 29:11 I want to
add 12-14:  “For I know the plans I have for you”, declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm
you, plans to give you hope and a future.  Then you will call upon Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen
to you.  You will seek Me and find Me when you seek Me with all your heart.”
  The Lord led me back to Jeremiah 1:5  “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were
born I set you apart.”
Before you start thinking and saying, “But this was written to Jeremiah – not to me”, look at 2 Timothy 3:16  
All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness.   
Romans 4 says that the words written to Abraham were not just for him but for all of us who believe.  Let us
take the Word of God as a personal message to us.
2 Thess. 2:13b God chose you to be saved through the sanctifying work of the Spirit and through belief in
the truth.
God loves you.  He loves each and every one of us.  And He wants us to know and understand that He loves
us.  He has been speaking so strongly and plainly to me in recent weeks of His great Love for us and He
perfect plan for each of us.  His love is perfect and His plan is perfect – even when we can not see the
perfection.  His love for us caused Him to create a plan for us, to call us to Himself, to make a way for us to
come to Him and to fulfill the destiny that He has for each of us.  It is all borne out of His great Love for us.
De. 7:6, 8a, 9  For you are a people holy to the Lord your God.  The Lord your God has chosen you out of all
the peoples on the face of the earth to be His people, His treasured possession.  … it was because the Lord
loved you and kept the oath He swore to your forefathers that He brought you out with a mighty hand and
redeemed you from slavery….
God loves you so much that He wants you to succeed even more that you want it for yourself.  He is all
knowing as well as all-powerful.  Only He knows what each one needs – for healing, for wholeness for
success.  Only He knows how to get you to the place you need to be.  He has the power to guide us and
enable us to do whatever He calls us to do.  Sometimes the way He chooses to lead us is not the way we want
to go.  Sometimes we can’t see how the way we are going will lead to where we believe God is taking us, to
where we long to go.
De. 8:2-3, 5, 7  Remember how the Lord your God led you all the way in the desert these forty years, to
humble you and to test you in order to know what was in your heart, whether or not you would keep His
commands.  He humbled you, causing you to hunger and then feeding you with manna, which neither you nor
your fathers had known, to teach you that man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes
from the mouth of the Lord.  Know then in your heart that as a man disciplines his son, so the Lord your God
disciplines you. For the Lord your God is bringing you into a good land – a land with steams and pools of water,
with springs flowing in the valleys and hills….  
God is speaking again in this day and hour.  And He wants us to hear His words.  He is reminding us of His
Scriptures.  He says,
“Look closely at My word and hide it in your heart to strengthen you and guide you and teach you what you
need to know to follow My path for you. I allow you to see some trials and troubles.  I lead you through a
wilderness, a desert land, to test you, to see if you will continue to believe in My truth, in My faithfulness, in
My Love and My care for you.  As I lead you through your wilderness, you will come upon things that will
seem like you are facing deadly scorpions, poisonous snakes and giants in the land.  You will feel threatened
and sometimes helpless.  But if you will hold on to My truth and believe Me, trust Me and worship Me in the
wilderness, in the dryness of the desert you will see My power revealed and exercised on your behalf.  I
will give you water where there is dryness, I will give you Heavenly Bread where you see nothing.  I will give
you victory over every enemy and every danger if you will wholeheartedly trust in Me.  I will teach you,
strengthen you and empower you to face every trial and test.  Let Me guide you – lead you where I choose to
take you.  I alone know the plan and the way for you to go.  I alone know your destiny.  Follow Me and ask for
My will and My kingdom to be come to you and your world – to be established in the earth.  Do not think that
you know the way.  My ways are not your ways.  My ways are higher than your ways.  My plans are different
than your plan.”
Pr. 3:5-7a  Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.  In all your ways
acknowledge Him and He shall direct your paths.  Do not be wise in your own eyes.
Is. 48:17 This is what the Lord says – your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel:  “I am the Lord your God who
teaches you what is best for you, Who directs you in the way you should go.  
“Don’t limit Me,” says the Lord,  “Don’t confine Me to your way of thinking and your understanding.  
Remember that My ways are not like your ways.  When Peter and the others were fishing without a catch and
thought they had done all that could be done and were ready to give up, I led them.  I gave them instructions
to do it another way.  Peter thought he knew how to fish.  He thought he knew the way.  But when he became
willing to do things My way even when they looked wrong, even though he couldn’t understand My way, he
found that he could hardly bring in the net full of fish that I led him too.  Do not limit me to your
understanding.  The Jews of the time of Jesus did not expect a carpenter to come and save them.  They
were looking for a king to come and reign over them.  They did not expect their king to ride into town on a
lowly donkey.  They were looking for something big and showy and powerful looking.  Many missed out on
what I was doing in bring salvation to the world because it didn’t look like what they were expecting.  Don’t
be like them.  Don’t put me in a box or pigeon-hole Me.  I will break out and do a new thing in a new way just
as I fed the children manna in the wilderness.  I have ways that you do not know and I will bring you all that
you need if you will trust Me and worship Me with your whole heart.”
And the Lord also says,  “Do not fear the enemy.  Do not walk in fear and doubt.  Remember My Word. Trust
Me, believe My word and walk in My peace that is greater than anything that may come against you.”
2 Thess. 3:3 But the Lord is faithful, and He will strengthen and protect you from the evil one.
Ex. 23:20, 21a, 22-23 “See, I am sending an angel ahead of you to guard you along the way and to bring you
to the place I have prepared.  Pay attention to him and listen to what he says.  If you listen carefully to what
he says and do all that I say, I will be an enemy to your enemies and will oppose those who oppose you.  My
angel will go ahead of you and bring you into the [promised] land.”
Mark 5:2-3, 6, 8,-9 12-13  And when He [Jesus] had come out of the boat, immediately there met Him out
of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit, who had his dwelling among the tombs and no one could bind him,
not even with chains.  When he saw Jesus from afar, he ran and worshiped Him. … He [Jesus ]said to him,
“Come out of the man, unclean spirit!”  Then He asked him, “What is your mane?” And he answered, saying,
“My name is legion, for we are many.”  So all the demons begged Him, saying, “Send us to the swine, that we
may enter them.”  And at once Jesus gave them permission.  Then the unclean spirits went out and entered
the swine (there were about two thousand); and the herd ran violently down the steep place into the sea and
drowned in the sea.
If two thousand demons could not keep this man from running to Jesus and worshipping Him what can
demons or Satan keep us from doing?  God is more powerful and Satan and his fellow fallen angels – demon
spirits.  We can trust God to keep us, to lead us and to fight for us.  (See Ro. 8: 28-39)

FATHER

 I am your Father – your heavenly Father.  My love for you is complete and unconditional.  I want to comfort
you.  Allow My love to overflow you and continue the healing work I have begun.  I see your needs.  Look to
Me as your father.  You’ve been looking for natural ways to supply your needs, the world’s answer and past
ways, the way that you have been accustomed to doing things.  You have been accepting the worldly, fleshly
way.  I’m calling you to look to Me and Me alone.  I will supply every need – My way – not the way of the
world.  Let me father you in love and grace and you walk in faith and righteousness.  You will find my justice
and My peace.  Do not look at past ways any longer; do not look at past answers.  Look to Me.  Look for My
perfect answers.  I’m bringing you a new way – a way of trust and acceptance of My loving care for you as
your father.

Prayer Brings Change
  Do not be discouraged or disheartened by what you see and hear around you.  Do not be influenced by the
news of troubles and problems across nations and in the world.  Do not be discouraged over your problems
or your failures.  It will be said again that this is the best of times and it is the worst of times.  Do not be
drawn off course.  Do not be distracted by the circumstances of life.  
  Your prayers are important at this time.  You can change the tide that is now coming in.  You can change
events that are set up by the enemy to take place – through your prayer.  Keep your focus on Me.  Keep your
prayers focused in My Word.  Do not pray out of worry or fear.  Pray from a heart of faith based in love.  
Believe that your prayers are of great effect.  Pray with trust.  As you set your heart to believe My Word,
to believe what I have spoken, as you set your heart to trust Me to listen to your petitions, to hear your
hearts cry, as you look to Me for the answers and do not accept the worlds view of what is to happen – you
will see many changes.
  The first step is to look inward.  Ask for a clean heart.  Ask for a renewed spirit.  Ask for a new and
deeper anointing to pray and to speak forth My word.  Repent.  Then believe.
  If you will judge yourselves, if you will humble yourselves and repent and seek Me as never before you will
see My hand at work.  You will see powerful works.  Do not fret and worry over what you see, cleanse
yourself, and pray for all that you see.  
  Do not be discouraged.   Be courageous and bold in your prayers.  You can usher in answers to problems
that seem insurmountable.  You can see the best times of your lifetime now.  Seek Me above all else.  
  The way to avoid my judgment is to judge yourselves.  As you become willing to serve Me at any cost, as
you become willing to be a servant first and foremost, as you repent and pray for My will to be established
in the earth you will usher in change.  
  Do not be discouraged – trust in Me as never before and see what great things I have for you.

RESTORATION II
  The time of your trial is coming to an end.  The time of restoration is at hand.  I will restore to you all that
you have lost, all that the enemy has stolen, all the locust has eater.  I will restore and I will rebuild.
  I am raising you up.  You will have a testimony of Me that will draw others to Me.
  Because you have endured patiently, because you have endured hardships, believing in My name, holding to
My hand, holding on to My Word, because you have chosen to believe in Me, because you have waited for My
answer to come in My timing, you shall see My promise.  Because you have trusted in My name and you have
been obedient to My instructions to wait on the Lord, your God and trust Me, you shall receive the promise
of the fulfillment of My word for your life.  Restoration is at hand.  Now is the time of raising up and building
up.  Restoration.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
October 28, 2007
RESTORATION
  My Children, I say to you, I give to you beauty for ashes.  For the spirit of mourning and weariness that has
been on you – I give the oil of joy -the oil of joy and gladness.  And I return to you beauty and joy.  For you
have felt like giving up, you have felt out of breath, as though running an uphill climb, My child.  I say to you
now that I breathe the breath of Life on you and in you.  And I bring you increase.  I give to you increase.  
Open up and receive the breath of life that I breathe upon you today.  Open up and receive the increase of
My Spirit and My power within you.  Walk in the newness of life, walk in the breath of life.  For I give to you
the fullness of My blessing and the fullness of My treasures and the fullness of My love.
  The power of the palmerworm and the locust and the pestilence of this earth that has come near to you –
that is broken by the breath of life and the power of My Spirit.  And I send forth the Spirit of restoration
to you.  I will restore all that has been lost, all that has been stolen.  Restoration and increase is coming.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
October 25, 2007
WALK IN FAITH
My children,
  I have spoken to you, time and time again.  I have told you what I have chosen for you, the path I have
chosen for you to walk.  But you have not listened because it is not what you wanted to hear.  I have called
you to walk the path of faith, to live a life of faith – faith in Me and in My word.  
  You keep asking me to change things and to change My word to you.  But My word remains the same.  Put
your trust in Me and walk in faith.  Don’t ask for predictability.  Don’t ask for a sure thing.  Don’t ask to know
what will happen tomorrow, next week or next year.  Trust Me and walk in faith.
  Don’t ask for security in jobs, positions, wealth, homes, people or heath.  Don’t look for easy answers.  Don’t
look for the old ways to continue to work.
  This is the time for new things.  This is the time to do things according to My will and My ways.  Ask Me to
reveal My way to you.  Ask Me to show you My will in your situation. Look to Me and My Word for your
security, for your provision and your well being.  I have called you.  I will provide.  Trust Me.  Resist fear and
walk in faith.

MORE TO COME
Beloved,
The gifts I’ve placed within you are for a time such as now.  This is the season for more.  As an atom is the
smallest particle of an element, you have seen only a minute particle of the anointing and power on your life
to minister until now.  You have experienced only a small taste of what will begin to be manifested in and
through your life.
Just as a farmer goes out in the fields and plants seeds and then sees the harvest, you are going to plant
many seeds and see a rich harvest.  And you will also see a harvest of the seeds I’ve planted within you – an
increase and a multiplication of fruit from those gifts in operation, and an increase in gifts.
Many of you have walked through a desert place,  and you have been in the valley.  And I placed you there
for My purpose and plan.  There has been only a faint trickle of water in the riverbed of the valley.  But I am
now going to open the floodgates, the floodgates are opening and you will see a floodtide, there will be
water to cover the desert and to cover the valley, to reach the mountaintops on either side.
You have been willing and you have been obedient.  You have seen what its like to become one of My chosen,
you know what it is to give up mother, father, children, house and land.  You have given up what was yours and
laid it on the altar.  And you are willing to give even more.  But I say to you, I Am will repay.  Restoration is
coming.  I will restore what you have given up for Me.
As you have gone to the altar before and laid it all there, go back once more and lay it all on the altar again.  
And the one that you have not fully released to Me, put that one on the altar.  Give Me your family, your
children, your husbands, your wives, give me that thing that you love, that thing that you have clung to.  You
spend your time in My word.  Study and prepare yourself so that you may be that workman that I have called
to give forth from My word.
As you devote yourself to My word, you will go out and speak My word in power as never before.  You will
see signs of My presence as never before.  Do not add to or take away one word from that which I give you
to speak.  But arise and shine forth in the radiant light and glory of your Lord.

Terrible Troubles and Great Glory
I believe the Lord would have me share with you a summary of what the Lord has been saying to me over the
last year or so regarding what is now upon us, combined with what I sense the Lord is saying to me today.
Then the Kingdom of Heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the
Bridegroom. Now five of them were wise, and five were foolish. Those who were foolish took their lamps and
took no oil with them, but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.  Matthew 25:1-4
Then He showed me another vision.  I saw the Lord standing beside a wall that had been built using a plumb
line.  He was using a plumb line to see if it was still straight.  And the Lord said to me, “Amos, what do you
see?”  I answered, “A plumb line.”  And the Lord replied, “I will test my people with this plumb line.  I will
not longer ignore all their sins.  Amos 7:7-8  NLT
God has spoken in the recent past of the shaking and cleansing that was to take place in the people of God.  
He is now using His standard, His plumb line to reveal where we are.  He is showing all who are out of
alignment with His standard – His holy Word.  And He is tearing out what has been built to the wrong
standard.  The best thing we can do is ask the Lord to reveal any hidden thing in our hearts, to repent and
seek the Lord as never before.
Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts.  Point out anything I me that
offends You, and lead me along the path of everlasting life.  Ps. 139:23-25 NLT
God continues to call His people to repentance while He calls the world to Himself; and to speak about the
coming troubles, calamities and disasters which are to occur simultaneously with great manifestations of God’
s glory and His presence.  We will walk through all manner of trials, tests, persecutions, trouble, calamities
and widespread disasters.  But…. But we will also see great revival, and marvelous pouring out of God’s
Spirit with signs and wonders, with miracles and salvation, deliverance, healing and restoration multiplied.  
Yes, there will be great trouble but God will deliver His people out of them all as they depend solely upon
Him.
God is both judging sin, wickedness, evil doing, and disobedience in His people while at the same time
rewarding His faithful obedient followers with long awaited answers to many prayers, with fulfillment of His
promises, with favor and power to overcome.  During this time He is exposing and
bringing down those who are in sin and disobedience.  And He is lifting up and launching out many who have
ministered faithfully to God in the background at the same time.  While some ministries are being exposed
and brought out of the limelight, while some are falling in failure other new ministries will be launched and
sent out in powerful anointing – without titles and familiar names – moving out in the name of the Lord.
While on the surface it may look that evil is multiplying and darkness is increasing, God is coming in visitation
and brining revival and growth, life and power to His people to do His will. But we must be ready to stand the
test of the plumb line.  We must meet God’s standard.  As we seek God, ask Him to reveal anything that is
unholy, or ungodly, to reveal all that is not of Him, reveal if we have erred from His truth, as we repent, He
will cleanse us and use us as He wills in this season.
I believe the Lord is saying, “Do not be confused or confounded by the seeming paradox.  Trust Me as never
before while standing firmly on the solid rock of the Truth of My Word.  Do not be taken unaware My Word
is full of advance warning and instructions concerning the times at hand.  Nothing is a surprise to Me.“
The Spirit clearly says that in later times come will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things
taught by demons.  Such teachings come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as
with a hot iron.  I Tim. 4:1-2 NIV
19 Many evils confront the [consistently] righteous, but the Lord delivers him out of them all.  
22 The Lord redeems the lives of His servants, and none of them who take refuge or trust in Him shall be
condemned or held guilty.  Ps. 34:19, 22 AMP
And afterward, I will pour out my Spirit on all people.  Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your old men
will dream dreams, your young men will see visions.   Joel 2:28  NIV
In the last days, the mountain of the Lord’s house will be the highest of all – the most important place on
earth.  It will be raised above the other hills, and people from all over the world will stream there to
worship.  People from many nations will come and say, “Come let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the
house of Jacob’s God.  There He will teach us His ways, and we will walk in His paths.  Isaiah 2:-2-3 TLB
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; my cup runs
over.  Psalm 23:5
Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord
your God is with you wherever you go.  Joshua 1:9

Prophecy
Repent Now
For weeks and weeks now the Lord has continued to speak to me concerning his call to His people and to the
nations – a call to repentance.  He keeps saying to me to tell His people to repent.  Then today He spoke this
word to me:
“ My people – Repent!  Repent now.  Repent – you – yes all of you.  Repent and seek My face.  Seek My
wisdom and begin to walk in the holiness of God.  I am calling My people to purity and consecration to Me.  
Set yourself apart.  Dedicate yourself and your life to Me and to My service.
“This is no time for excuses, no time for procrastination, no time for caring for the things of this world.  
There is no time for careless reluctance, for lazy idleness.  It is now time for repentance as never before.  
Repent now.  Repent fully.
“Ask Me.  Ask Me to reveal all that is in your heart that separates you from Me.  Ask Me to reveal all that is
in your life, all that you have picked up and brought into your life and into your home that is not of Me.  Ask
Me and I will show you.  I will tell you so that you can repent quickly and walk in obedience to Me and to My
word.
“I am coming back for a pure people, a holy people, an obedient people.  Repent now and be cleansed, make
yourself pure and holy through your obedience in repentance and turning away from all that is worldly, all
that is fleshly.  Repent now.  Come back into holiness.  Lay aside every thing that holds you back from
following Me with your whole heart.  Cast off every thing – every thought, every word, every act that
opposes My Word, all that opposes My character, all that works against your wholehearted obedience to
Me.  Cast it off.  Repent, turn away from your sin and run after Me as hard as you can.  Pursue Me.  Pursue
My Holiness.  Pursue My wisdom.  Pursue righteous.  Run to Me, My children – now.  Then you will be able to
call the nations to repentance.  You repent now and walk in holiness.
“There is trouble ahead and you will need to be close to Me – closer than ever.  Be cleansed and made whole.  
Be purified and walk in holiness so that you are prepared for what is ahead.  Those who follow Me closely –
who dwell in My presence will find safety and protection from all danger.  Those who are prepared with the
oil of My Spirit will not walk in darkness or fear.  Those who abide in the Almighty are safe.  
“Repent and draw closer to Me.”

Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline.  So be earnest, and repent.  Rev. 3:19

Stop Long Enough To Hear
My Child,
I've been waiting for you to stop long enough to hear what I have to say. I long to communicate with you at a
deeper level than ever before. But you need to come to Me and sit in My presence to hear My voice. I speak
softly. I will not shout for your attention. I will not compete with all the other noises. I am speaking to you.
First, My love for you is far greater than you realize. The enemy has tried to keep you blinded to the depth
and breadth and height of My great love for you.  Believe My love for you. Believe that My Word is true.
Come and sit in My presence and allow Me to lovingly talk to you. I want a Father-child chat with you. There
are things I want to guide you into. There are things I want to correct. Listen closely to My voice and Mine
alone.
Allow Me to guide in all things. Do not try to make things happen, no matter how frustrated you feel over the
seeming lack of any activity. I am working behind the scenes accomplishing what you could never accomplish.
Trust Me as never before. Become flexible. Let Me guide you, be prepared, be ready to move quickly
without lengthy explanations.
A new wave is coming and you need to be in position to catch it and ride the crest of the wave and go where it
takes you. Be prepared. Don't be left on the shore wondering what happened and longing for what you
missed. Take your place.  Take your position. You will hear My voice directing you as you maneuver into the
place I have called you to take.
Listen for My voice as you sit in My presence. And know that as you come into and wait in My glorious
presence that you will be changed. My presence is light.  And My light exposes everything. Just as standing
before a mirror when you undress for your bath you see yourself as you are, standing in the Light of My
presence you will see yourself as you really are. You stand before Me naked.  Nothing is hidden. You will see
whatever is not of Me. You will see the smallest thing that needs to be laid down or cast aside. Come into My
presence and be cleansed, be changed, be prepared for the next wave. Listen, and look closely at what I am
showing you.

PURSUE WITH TRUST

I am calling you –while you are in the middle of your circumstances, in the midst of adversity, while you are in
a battle, knowing that Satan has worked to deceive those around you, to bring despondency and despair to
you over your circumstances.  The call is to pursue Me with your entire being.  Follow Me in faith.  Know that
all power in Heaven and earth is Mine.  You can trust Me and believe that I have the power to deliver you, to
restore what has been lost and to reconcile and restore that which is broken and wounded.  I am the Most
High God.  I am faithful and true, I am trustworthy and righteous in love and justice, mercy and grace.  Put
your trust in Me, use the name of Jesus and place yourself and your concerns in My hands.  There is much
more to come.  You need to come close to Me and find the protection of faith and trust in Me and in My
name.

BELIEVE

It is time to believe – truly believe – without doubt – all that I have spoken to you, all that is in My word.  I
have led you.  All the things you have been through, everything you’ve endured and overcome, I have brought
you through.  I have brought you through the fire into the oasis of My Love.  There are times I allow you to
see things about the people around you, times I have revealed My heart to you.  I’ve caused you to see what
I see, to feel what I feel.  There will be many more times if you will walk My way and do
My biding - I assure you that you will be fulfilled.  
I am giving you the most precious gift – which is Myself in you.  Accept My gift .  Accept My great love.
And that feeling that you have that much of your life has been wasted – let it go.  Banish those thoughts from
your mind.  Your life is not wasted and you have much purpose in life yet to come.  Your desire to touch
others, your desire to reach out in love to others will grow and find fulfillment as you follow Me in obedience
to My word.  Believe.

ONLY ONE WAY

There is no other way to salvation apart from the blood of Jesus.  He is the chosen and anointed One –
chosen to implement and carry out the plan of redemption of mankind to Almighty God.  All other paths lead
to devastation and destruction with despair.
There is no way to fulfill your assignment on the earth, to walk in divine destiny apart from the Spirit of
God.  If you are to walk the path I have chosen you to walk and fill the position I’ve chosen you for, if you are
to walk in My chosen path for you then you must follow Me step by step.  You cannot choose your own way
and walk the path I’ve chosen for you.  You cannot choose what you want to do – with your energies, your
gifts, your time – with your life and ask Me to bless your choices.  
No, you must ask Me.  Seek Me for the path you are to walk and then follow it all the way.  I know the plans I
have for you.  My plan is good, it is to prosper you in your way and bring glory to My name.  My ways are not
your ways.  My thoughts and plans for you are not your own.  I know where My path will lead you.  How can
you know where the path you choose may lead?
When you begin to make your own plans, to choose the path you think will lead to your success, you reveal a
lack of faith in Me.  Put your faith in Me.  Trust My way.  Trust My plan.  Trust Me to bring it to pass.  Seek
My will – not your own.  Do you think I do not know the deep longing of your heart?  Do not think I cannot
fulfill My promises.  Do not think I cannot implement My plan and bring it to fruition.  Do not think that My
plan is not a good plan.  It is the best plan.  It is the only way to true peace and contentment as well as
fruitfulness.  It is the way to My heart.
Do you not believe that I know the best way for you?  I know every hair on your head.  And I know every
secret thought and desire of your mind and heart.  I know of your needs whether your need is for finances,
stability, jobs, friends, acceptance, love, health, peace, contentment and well being.
I know if you need a mate, a companion for life.  Do you not trust Me in this area of your life?  If having a
mate is part of My plan for you, do you not believe that I have already chosen and prepared that one who is
right and perfect for you?  And if I have chosen that one, do you not believe that I can bring the two of you
together?  Do you think that I have lost the one I’ve chosen and not you must find the one for yourself?  
I know of every promise that I have given you and I alone have the power to fulfill those promises.  I make
men great and I being them low.  I open doors that no man can shut.  I give opportunities that are impossible
without Me.  I make jobs where there are no jobs.  I give promotion when it seems that there is no favor and
no possibility.  My Word is still true and I am a faithful God.
Do not walk outside the path of faith.  Do not walk in unbelief.  Keep your focus and your trust in Me.  There
is danger on other paths.
Trust Me.  Trust Me concerning every detail of your life.  Put me and My ways, My plans first.  Seek My
face.  Seek My ways and you will find all that you are seeking and much more.  Learn to be content where you
are.  And trust Me to bring promotion, let Me bring favor and blessing to your life.  Learn to be content in
your present circumstance and you will find great contentment with peace and joy await you.  I will not leave
you as you are.  But let Me bring the necessary changes.
Do not follow a faithless path that you think to be a shortcut to success and happiness.  Follow the path of
faithful trust in your Father, God, the Almighty One.  It will lead to joy beyond your expectations.  Seek Me.  
Focus on Me and My ways.  That is your path to success and prosperity, to joy and peace, to fruitfulness with
reward.

Stand In Truth
My Beloved, My children, listen; listen to My voice.  Listen to My words:
In every situation that arises show mercy and grace - while simultaneously standing firm in that which you know is right,
that which you have learned by My Spirit and found in My word.  Walk in a godly manner with patience keeping
everything in order.  Yes, I require order.  Do not fight with those who try to intimidate you.  Do not fight – do not argue –
just stand in the truth of My word.  Speak the truth of My word.  
Forgive those who oppose the truth.  Forgive and do not strive with those who oppose you and what you stand for.  
Forgive their lack of understanding, the lack of sensitivity, the lack of knowledge, the jealously, the envy and strife.  Pray
for unity and peace.  Stand in the truth.  Stand securely in truth.
Ro. 16: 17-20  … note those who cause divisions and offenses, contrary to the doctrine which you have learned, and avoid
them.  For those who are such do not serve our Lord, Jesus Christ, but themselves, and by smooth words and flattering
speech, deceive the hearts of the simple.  For your obedience has become known to all.  Therefore, I am glad on your
behalf, but I want you to be wise in what is good, and simple concerning evil.  And the God of peace will crush Satan under
your feet shortly.
1 Cor.  1:10 Now I plead with you, … by the name of our Lord, Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, that there
be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly joined together, in the same mind and in the same judgment.

Open The Door
Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline.  So be earnest, and repent.  Here I am!  I stand at the door and knock.  If
anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with Me.  Rev. 3:19-20
Some of My people are not satisfied.  You are hungry.  Some of you are very hungry.  Some are beginning to enter into
spiritual starvation, yet always longing for Me, for more – while wondering why you are not filled.  You cry out, “Fill us
Holy Spirit.”  But you have not opened the door for Me through listening to My voice and obeying My Words.
Hear My voice.  Listen closely to what I Am saying and obey My voice.  Submit to My correction and discipline.  If
anyone does not hear My voice, I will not come in to eat with you, and fill you.
You are to give out of what you have been given.  If you are not giving out of what you have, you will not receive an
increase.  You cannot receive more if you do not first freely give what you have.  You must give as I give – generously and
freely.  Give forgiveness to those who offend you, wound you, abuse you, or persecute you.  You are called to forgive as I
forgive.  That involves casting away the sins of those who have wounded you – not to be remembered are called to
remembrance again.  Cast their sins away as far as the east from the west as I do for you.  Lay down all blame.  It is
impossible to forgive the one who has wounded you, to love that one while continuing to blame them.  The two cannot
dwell together.  
If you find you are still accusing and blaming one who has offended or wounded you, then must know that you have not
forgiven as I forgive you – you are holding blame against them.  When I forgive you, your sin is cast far away never to be
remembered, never to be recalled again.  It is as though it never happened in My eyes.  Can you look at this one as though
nothing happened to offend you?
Yet, you hold on, you rehearse it over in your mind.  You recall it, you talk about it, and you remind the offender of their
offense, laying blame.  You are bringing up before their face – you are bringing it up before My face – what you are called
to cast away with your forgiveness.
Stop blaming.  Stop recalling those painful memories.  Do not indulge your anger or your pain any longer.  Lay aside blame
as you throw the offense far from you.  Then you will have opened the door for Me to come in and fill you and commune
with you.
I will give you more of ME as you give away as you have received.  Throw away the memories of the offense. Throw
away the blame and accusations.  Cast them on the cross of Jesus.  Forgive as I forgive  - completely – release the one who
offended you from all blame and you will discover that you have liberated yourself as will as the one you have named as
offender.  You will find you have room in your heart for more and more of Me, of <My love, of My grace, of My mercy –
and it will flow out of you to wash over those around you and that one you have held in blame and unforgiveness.

Do not put out the Spirit’s fire; do not treat prophecies with contempt.  Test everything.  Hold on to the good. 1
Thessalonians 5:19-21

PURPOSE
There is purpose in the days ahead.  It will be difficult for you to see and recognize My purpose and My will during the
coming times.  Some days will be full of storms and tumult; some days will be dark.  Do not fear.  Abide in My peace, My
presence.  I will lift you and carry you over the stormy waves, with My strong right arm.  I will carry you through the
darkness in My guiding light – a light that is powerful to reveal the obstacles and dangers in the way and yet will not expose
you to the enemy – a light that man cannot put out, a light that will comfort you and guide you.  You have nothing to fear.  
Do not be afraid.  In My presence, in My Light you will find strength.  Your faith will grow stronger as you follow Me
through the darkness, as you rest in My arms and are carried through the storm.  Do not allow your mind to fear, do not
entertain thoughts of fear and doubt that would cause you to sink in the waves, or stumble in the darkness.  Rest in Me.  Be
still.  Be quiet and know that I am your God – the Almighty One.

Each of you, My children, is one so rare, yes I say you are one of a kind, I LOVE you.
You have come to me many times, and many times you have gone away thinking that I did not hear or I did not care.  I care for you,
My child.  You have not begun to understand My great love for you.
I do know your heart, and I am leading you.  Your miracle is on the way.  Do not despair; all things are in My hand.  Time is in My
hand.  My times are not your times.  Wait patiently for Me.  Do not be hasty or impatient.
I am moving on your behalf in ways you do not expect – things are coming to you that you’ve never allowed yourself to even dream of.  
You will be surprised.  You will be shaken.  The plans that I have for you, the love I have for you is exceedingly, abundantly more than
you could ever ask or think.  Wait on Me.
I am moving things into place for you.  My love for you is a healing love, an energizing love, an empowering love, a forgiving love, a
demanding love, an encouraging love, a productive love, and a stretching love.  You are being stretched – sometimes you think to the
limit – but I know depths in you that you are unaware of.
I know the heights you can reach.  I know the resiliency I’ve built into you.  I know how far to stretch you to make you the vessel I
desire.  Keep yourself yielded to me.  Trust Me.  Trust Me more.  I am working.  Wait on Me I say.
I love you!

Repent Now

For weeks and weeks now the Lord has continued to speak to me concerning his call to His people and to the nations – a call to
repentance.  He keeps saying to me to tell His people to repent.  Then today He spoke this word to me:
“ My people – Repent!  Repent now.  Repent – you – yes all of you.  Repent and seek My face.  Seek My wisdom and begin to walk in
the holiness of God.  I am calling My people to purity and consecration to Me.  Set yourself apart.  Dedicate yourself and your life to
Me and to My service.
“This is no time for excuses, no time for procrastination, no time for caring for the things of this world.  There is no time for careless
reluctance, for lazy idleness.  It is now time for repentance as never before.  Repent now.  Repent fully.
“Ask Me.  Ask Me to reveal all that is in your heart that separates you from Me.  Ask Me to reveal all that is in your life, all that you
have picked up and brought into your life and into your home that is not of Me.  Ask Me and I will show you.  I will tell you so that you
can repent quickly and walk in obedience to Me and to My word.
“I am coming back for a pure people, a holy people, an obedient people.  Repent now and be cleansed, make yourself pure and holy
through your obedience in repentance and turning away from all that is worldly, all that is fleshly.  Repent now.  Come back into
holiness.  Lay aside every thing that holds you back from following Me with your whole heart.  Cast off every thing – every thought,
every word, every act that opposes My Word, all that opposes My character, all that works against your wholehearted obedience to
Me.  Cast it off.  Repent, turn away from your sin and run after Me as hard as you can.  Pursue Me.  Pursue My Holiness.  Pursue My
wisdom.  Pursue righteous.  Run to Me, My children – now.  Then you will be able to call the nations to repentance.  You repent now
and walk in holiness.
“There is trouble ahead and you will need to be close to Me – closer than ever.  Be cleansed and made whole.  Be purified and walk in
holiness so that you are prepared for what is ahead.  Those who follow Me closely – who dwell in My presence will find safety and
protection from all danger.  Those who are prepared with the oil of My Spirit will not walk in darkness or fear.  Those who abide in the
Almighty are safe.  
“Repent and draw closer to Me.”

Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline.  So be earnest, and repent.  Rev. 3:19
The Lord know those who are His,” and, “Everyone who confesses the name of the Lord must turn away from wickedness.”  2 Tim. 19
Let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for
us. Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith…. Heb. 12: 1b-2
Because the Lord disciplines those He love, and He punishes everyone He accepts as a son.  Heb. 12:6
Remember the height from which you have fallen! Repent and do the things you did at first.  If you do not repent, I will come to you
and remove your lamp stand from its place.  Rev. 2:5
Submit yourselves, then to God.  Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.  Come near to God and He will come near to you.  Wash
your hands you sinners and purify your hearts, your double-minded.  Humble yourselves before the Lord, and He will lift you up.  
James 4:7-8, 10
If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. 1 Jn. 1:9

Follow God
I saw in a vision a line of people each following the one leading.  Suddenly the line broke about halfway along the line and the person
now finding himself in the front of the line whereas he had been well back in the line looked startled, looked all around and seemed
confused about what to do next.  He hesitated, staggered to the right and left looking very lost.

The Lord spoke to me:
Many of you, My children are not following Me – you are trying to follow someone that you believe is following Me.  When the person
you are following falls, or stumbles or walks away you are left without direction.   My children, you become confused, stagger around
aimlessly looking for a leader, trying to find the way and some lose their way.  I am calling My children to follow Me only, look to Me
alone.  
Do not get your eyes and your focus on other people.  Don’t put your trust in men.  They may lead you astray.  Abide in Me.  Abide in
My word.  Listen for My voice.  Follow Me.  I will make the way clear.  Only use the direction of others simply as confirmation to the
guidance I give you.  Keep your eyes fixed on Me – follow Me.  
Don’t miss the next step.  Don’t miss the new move of My Spirit by following the wrong path, or the wrong leader.  There is great
change coming.  Be ready to follow My Spirit along the path of My presence. Follow Me.

For Such A Time As This

For such a time as this have I said that I would strengthen you. For such a time as this have I said I have given you My love. For such
a time as this have I said I would visit you. For such a time as this have I put My hands upon you for strength and love.
I am strengthening you. I am pouring My love in you, on you and through you. The enemy has come to try to call you aside, to bring
you dismay, to cause you to doubt My word. But I have come to you to strengthen you, to enable you to walk in My strength, to walk in
My love and to hold onto to My word.
Do not be dismayed. Do not faint or stumble in the temptation. Trust in Me and Me alone. Trust in My word as the only truth. Hold on
to what you have been taught, to the words that I have spoken to you and stand against the enemy. Rest in My strength to sustain you
and to bear you up in the time of trial and testing.

SURRENDER
“Many of My children are battling discouragement.  Many of you are looking at your disappointments and your problems and you
wonder why you cannot live in victory.  You have been crying out for joy and peace.  But I say to you, your victory lies in surrender.  
Your peace comes through surrender.  Surrender your will to My will.  Surrender your heart to Me.  Surrender your mouth, and your
words to Me and let Me fill your heart, your mind and your mouth with My words.

“Have you not heard?  Have you not seen?  I have called you to walk and live in victory.  Victory is yours.  Reach out and take hold in
faith of the victory that is yours through the cross of Jesus.  Believe that victory is yours.

“Many of you are still asking, ‘Why do I not see God’s promises coming to pass?  Why am I still waiting for the promise?’  I speak
again to you – surrender.  Surrender what you think the promise is; and ask Me for revelation of My will for you – of the true promise.  
Surrender all your plans and dreams for what you have thought to be My will, to ask Me to reveal My plan and My will for you.  

“You are looking in one direction while I am coming from another direction.  You are expecting something to come in one way, but I’m
accomplishing My will in another way.  Do not hold tightly to your idea of what you think I said.  Do not hold on to your interpretation
of My Word, to your interpretation of My promises.  Surrender them to Me and accept in return the good plan that I have for you.  
Trade in your ideas, your interpretations, your understanding for My true revelation of My promises to you. Walk in the liberty, the
victory, and the peace of surrender.”

I did not find the word surrender in Scripture.  The closest in meaning was submit or the literal meaning of trust.  I am giving you all
three definitions.

Surrender: [Webster’s] 1.a. to yield to the power, control, or possession of another.  b. to give up completely.  2.a. To give oneself up
into the power of another. YIELD syn: RELINQUISH.

Submit: [Greek] to surrender, to yield, to become weak, to submit self, to subordinate, to obey,         to be under obedience, to put
under obedience, to be subject to, to be in subjection, to submit         self unto.

Trust: [Greek] to expect, to have thing hoped for, TRUST, to anticipate with pleasure in hope         and confidence – FAITH, HOPE.  
[Hebrew]: to rely by inward certainty, to believe, to agree         with, to have confidence in, to obey, to trust, to yield.
Literal Hebrew means to lie face down on ground in submission

Truth and Error in Ministry

As I was in prayer concerning some of today’s preachers/ministers and televangelists the Lord spoke the following to me in answer to
my questions regarding some of the things going forth today in the name of the Lord:

“All men have the same propensity to misinterpret My Holy Word. All are human; all possess the same possibility for
misunderstanding and for failure. Not one is perfect. No man is perfect, and no man has all the truth. And many who are filling pulpits
today have small portions of truth and large portions of men's ideas, men's teachings. They are giving out of doctrines devised by men
who are attempting to understand the Word of a Holy, Perfect and Righteous God – with their finite human minds while filtering it
through their own failings, shortcomings, past experiences, personalities and limited capacity for full understanding.  Understanding of
My Word can only come through revelation knowledge.  And I will not reveal all wisdom to one man.

“There are also many whose teaching borders on false teaching.  They start out with a desire to bring My truth.  But they have become
ensnared with pride in what they have learned, pride in their knowledge and they have mixed My truth with the half-truths and the lies
from the enemy brought to distract and to misguide them.

“Men may read and study My word with a desire to learn more of Me, and understand My ways. But My word and My ways are
above full understanding by the mind of flesh.  Nor is one to make a doctrine out of any thing that Holy Spirit reveals.  Bear these
things in mind as you listen to these teachers and as you receive revelation by My Spirit.  Be quick to listen, be sensitive to My voice.  
Speak only what you hear the Father saying – when directed by Holy Spirit to speak.

“Just as My word says, I have given all the apostles, prophets, pastors, teachers and evangelists of the past and the present to teach,
lead and guide My people.  Each of them have received their own pieces or part of the puzzle- yet none have the complete picture.  It
may look good, it may sound good but you must weigh all that you hear against My Word.   Weigh what you hear against what Holy
Spirit is speaking in your own heart and what other anointed leaders in the Body of Christ are saying.

“Continue to test what is taught by the fruit it produces.  Does it bring peace or confusion?  I am never the author of confusion. The
Lord your God does not bring fear and confusion to His holy people.   Fear is from the enemy.   My word is very clear, I have not given
you a spirit of fear but of love and peace and a sound mind.
“Therefore, when a Word, or a teaching comes that produces fear without assurance of My mercy and grace, when it brings confusion
rather than clarity, when it brings condemnation rather than conviction, when it points to a problem without the solution - you can know
it is not of your Father God.  The origin of that teaching, or of that "Word" is not Holy Spirit.   I speak to you with grace and love.   My
truth comes forth with clarity, and conviction.  My truth comes forth with instruction accompanied by that inner witness of the spirit
within to the Holy Spirit.  My truth comes forth that it may encourage, teach, lead, guide, correct, solve issues and reassure,  and it
brings peace that passes all understanding.

“Recognize fear, doubt and confusion as the hallmark of the enemy– the fruit of the tree of the lies of the enemy. He brings
discouragement, while Holy Spirit brings encouragement.  Satan brings doubt while Holy Spirit brings faith.  Satan brings confusion and
dismay while Holy Spirit brings clarity and understanding.   Remember the hallmark of the enemy and avoid his lies.  Avoid them like
the plague.  Avoid them with fervor while you unashamedly embrace the truth of your God.

“I long for you to trust Me and trust Me completely. Trust Me to speak to you, trust Me to make what I say clear to you and those
who hear or read it. Trust Me to keep you. Believe with all your heart that the work that I began in you I will complete.”

A Change of Season

Do not be discouraged or dismayed over the revelation of truth. You have asked for truth.  You have asked for wisdom. You have
asked to be changed.  You have asked for growth and fruitfulness.  Do not hide from what I reveal to you about yourself now.  Do not
turn away from what you see no matter how imperfect or flawed you see yourself.  Do not hide from your thoughts, your words or your
attitudes no matter how bad they make you feel.   

When you run, when you hide you do not repent.  Turn, face the truth, receive the revelation and repent.  As you repent trust me to My
work of cleansing and renewing.  Have I not spoken to you in the past of the tests that were to come?  Have I not spoken to you about
the growth that will follow?               There can be no healthy new growth without some pruning of old growth, some cutting away of dead
limbs, some trimming of new buds to cause even greater growth.  As you release  - through repentance and turning away - you will see
a season of growth.  Then a season of fruitfulness will follow.

Do not be discouraged over testing and pruning.  Rejoice for the growth that is to come.  Rejoice over the fruitfulness of the future.  A
change is season is coming.

Death and Resurrection

My people, I see you celebrate my crucifixion. You grieve over My death. You weep over My suffering. You remember My broken
body in taking the bread and wine of the Passover. And that is good. I want you to remember the cross. Remember My death and what
it purchased for you. Remember My blood that was shed for the remission of your sins and for your deliverance and wholeness.

And I see how you celebrate My resurrection. You shout and sing songs of praise and celebration that I am risen from the grave and
seated now at the right hand of the Father. I love your praise and I am pleased with your celebrations of life. It is good. But My
children, I want you to do more that celebrate My death and resurrection. I want you to come into life! Walk in the power and grace,
the wholeness and soundness of My life that is in you – that is available to you! Come, My people, into abundant, whole, vigorous,
overflowing, power-filled life. Walk in wholeness in Me. Be whole. Be healed. Be so full of life that it touches all those with whom you
come into contact.

Remember My victory! Victory over death and hell, victory over sickness and disease, victory over bondage to sin, victory over Satan
and his followers. I call you to walk in victory. Live in the fullness of what I accomplished on the cross and in My resurrection. Live in
the fullness of divine life – My life flowing in you, and through you. Let your celebration be acceptance of, recognition of My life in you
by living in divine favor and Life with a capital L. Live life fully and live a fully abundant life of complete wholeness. Celebrate life.

Too Much Mixture

There is too much mixture in My children.  There is too much mixture of flesh and spirit of natural and divine, of truths and half-truths
or untruths.  There is too much mixture in what you call worship.  You sing songs said to honor Me which in truth glorify men and
gratify the flesh, tickle the ear and make you feel good.  They do not bring glory to Me.  I am looking for those who will worship me in
spirit and in truth not a fleshly show of how talented some are, not a performance but a demonstration of worship, a giving of honor to
Me.
There is too much mixture of flesh with spirit praying prayers that are for others to hear not for My ears alone. There is too much
mixture of My Word and man’s opinion passing for truth in teaching.  There is too much mixture of the impure with the purity of My
Word.  There is too much mixture of the profane and the mundane with the holy.  Seek purity.  Get rid of the mixture.
I do not honor your worship with My presence to gratify your flesh.  I do not come into your midst in order to cuddle or coddle you.  I
do not come to make you feel good.  I come into your midst to do a work in you and through you.  My presence will change you from
the inside out if you are focused on Me and My glory, My will and My ways.  I will correct what is wrong.  I will correct and restore
order to that which is out of order.  I will bring uprightness of heart to you as you worship Me in purity.  I will bring My holiness to bear
in your life as you submit to Me in worship and in truth.
My purpose is to bring change in you and then use you to bring change to your situations, to meet the needs of others around you.  My
desire is to change My people, to transform your hearts and minds and emotions to make you channels for My love and power.  I
desire that My love flow through you, that My power flow through you to those in your midst who are in need of healing and restoration.
There is a purpose in My presence.  I have a divine plan.  It will not bring you soulish gratification.  It will bring Me glory and honor as
you submit to My plan, as you become the channel for My love through true worship.  Let your heart burn for My presence.  Seek My
Presence so that I may bring about change that will be lasting change.  I want to change hearts and lives not circumstances.  I want to
renew your mind and transform your hearts.  Do not be satisfied with a season of “feeling good”.   Worship is not about how you feel
before during or after worship.  Worship is to honor Me and usher in My presence.  With My presence there is purpose.  Get rid of the
mixture and find purpose.

Intense Intercession

“Those who find My word find health to their flesh and marrow to their bones.  Find the Word of the Lord.  Not in reading only.  Not in
looking up definitions in a dictionary.  But read the word of the Lord and find the Word of God for you that will abound within your
heart.  Find the Word of the Lord for you and your life situation.
“ Seek Me.  And in your seeking you will abound.   Don’t try to direct yourself.  Stand in the presence of a Holy God and find His
direction for your life and your family and your needs.  Seek Me diligently.  Listen for My voice.  Hear My words.
“Seek Me diligently about how to pray for your family and those around you.  Some people become drunk with wine and some of My
children are drunk on the cares of the world.  They are so incapacitated they can no longer function soberly in making life choices and
decisions. Some that you desire to see rescued from their problems, their sins and their lifestyle are too weighed down with the cares
and problems of life, and they are stumbling under the load. I long to set them free.  I long to bring deliverance to them.  
"You are being called to pray the effectual fervent prayer of the righteous.  It will avail much.  Seek Me purposefully and diligently.  
Be touched with the feeling of the infirmities of others.  Allow compassion and longing for them to fill your heart.  Weep for them.  And
lift them up to Me.
“Make your prayers fervent, of a white-hot intensity such as happens when metal is heated to a white hot stage.  When it is that white-
hot intensity it can pierce another piece of metal as easily as a knife cuts butter.  Let your prayers become so intense they are white-
hot to pierce holes in the bondages the enemy has bound your family and neighbors with.  Pray with feeling, put yourself in their place
and pray with compassion and let that intensity build into the white hot stage and you will see deliverance for those you are praying
for.”

Abide In Me

While I was reading John 15,  Holy Spirit spoke to me the following:
“If you will really and truly abide in Me, if you will soak in My word and spend time in My presence, if you will stay in vital union with
Me, you will be able to speak what you hear Me say. As you remain vitally united to Me you will become a fully developed spiritually,
you will tame your tongue, you will not malign your neighbor, you will not speak evil of one another.  If you will abide in Me and allow
Me to abide in you then you will become the spiritually mature one I have called you to be and you will bear fruit – excellent fruit –
worthy of eating by those I bring into your life.  Dig deeply into My word.  Sit before the throne and listen to My words.  You will see
more and more fruit.  I will send those who need the fruit to you.  

“If you will abide in Me daily abide in Me, you will no longer need to worry about saying the wrong thing.  As your heart and mind are
renewed by My word your speech will be changed.  As your heart is cleansed by My word you will speak what you hear Me saying.  
You can do what you see Me doing by the spirit as you abide in Me and I abide in you and you abide in My word.”

Put Off Fear and Condemnation – Put On Trust

“The word of your Lord has come to you, saying: “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you. Before you were born I called you.
Before you were born I separated you, I called you apart for My very own. You were set-aside for Me before you were formed in the
womb of your mother. I’ve  heard you say. “Oh, Lord, I cannot do this, for I am a woman.  I cannot do this because I am a child – I am
too old – I don’ t have the education.  I cannot be the one You want because I am weak.  I may fail. I may let you down. Oh Lord, I’m
not good enough. I’m not strong enough. I’m frail and weak and I may stumble and fall and ruin your reputation. I may lose my
salvation through disobedience.”
“But I say to you “Do not say that you are a woman, or you are too old or you are too young out of fear, do not say you are weak and
frail. Have I not said that My strength is made perfect in your weakness? Have I not said that I will be with you unto the end of the
earth? Have I not said that you cannot separate yourself from Me and My great love for you?
“Do not allow these attacks of the evil one bringing lies of defeat and failure hinder you any longer. You are truly My called and
chosen one. You are My chosen from before the womb.  My called one from before you were born. No longer allow the fear- causing
lies of the enemy to weigh you down. You please Me with your worship. Your songs to Me are the delight of My heart.  Your prayers
are music to My ears.  You are safe in the shelter of My arms. You are safe under the blood of your Savior, My son, Jesus the
anointed Savior and Redeemer.
“I say, “Shake off the lies of the enemy. Shake off the weights with which he has tried to hold you down. Shake off the cords he has
wrapped around your thinking. Shake off the fear- filled lies he keeps bringing to you. Trust in Me and Me alone. No, you cannot keep
yourself from ever falling or failing.   But My strong right hand will bear you up. My strong right arm will hold you close as you
continue to seek intimacy with Me.
“You are My bride. You are My beloved. You are My chosen and adopted one. I have made you heir to all that I have - My entire
kingdom is before you if you keep your focus on Me, and trust Me. I am your shelter. I am your strength. I am your safety. It truly is
My arms that carry you when you cannot go in your own strength.
“I am well able to keep all those who are Mine. I know those that I have called and chosen, those who have answered the call to come
to Me. And I know who has chosen to become My love slave. I know your heart. I know the depth of your desire for Me. I know the
depth of your desire and longing to please Me and I say to you; You please Me. You please Me. And you are safe in My arms. You
are safe under the blood. No one can take you from My hands. Only rebellion against My will separate you from Me in any way.
“You ask, what is rebellion?  How do I know if I am rebellious?  Rebellion is not just the prolonged, and continuing practice of any sin,
it is not just an outward act or behavior. Rebellion is a heart condition.  Rebellion is born in the heart of the one who says to himself,  ‘I
know this is not really wrong.  I don’t believe that God really cares whether I do that or not.’   Rebellion is saying  ‘ I don’t believe I
will die if I eat of the fruit. I will do as I think is right and I will be alright.’   Rebellion is an attitude - thinking you know what is best for
you that you do not need My guidance. Rebellion is thinking that even though it might be wrong for others it will be O.K. for you do to.
“I deal with even My rebellious children in Love. You would not allow any of your children to put their hand in the fire, or fall into a
raging river. Am I not more than capable of keeping My beloved and chosen children from the temptations of the enemy and the
dangers of life? I AM the Father. I Am your Father. I AM your shelter. I Am your safety. Put all your trust in Me and not yourself.
“I say again to you, trust in Me.  Believe Me.  Believe Who I am and what I am and believe in My keeping power.  Know, know deep
in your heart that you are being kept by My unfailing, unfathomable love.  You cannot understand My love but you can rest it.  You can
rest in it everyday in every situation, through every problem.  Rest in My unsearchable love and trust Me, believe Me.”

THE PATH TO VICTORY

The path to victory is not straight nor easy. It winds. It circles. It seems to wander through difficulties and confusion with perplexities.
It winds through darkness and storms as well as light and calm. Do not fear.

Keep your hand in mine. I will not allow you to get far off the path, or lose your way. I know everything that will come - before it
happens. I am not lost in the darkness. When the way becomes rough and hard you need Me even more. When you seem to be walking
in darkness, remember I AM the Light. Come back to Me. Hold on – to Me and to My Word.

Don’t reach out to take hold of things you see along the way – they will fail you. Don’t get your eyes on man or doctrine. Focus on Me
alone – keep a single eye. Don’t try to hang on to the past or to old ways. I will lead you and guide you and hold to your hand. Hold on.
Follow Me to victory.

Then I said to you, “Do not be terrified; do not be afraid of them. The Lord your God, who is going before you, will fight for you, as he
did for you in Egypt, before your very eyes, and in the desert. There you saw how the Lord your God carried you as a father carries his
son, all the way you went until you reached this place. In spite of this, you did not trust in the Lord your God, who went ahead of you on
your journey, in fire by night and in a cloud by day, to search out places for you to camp and to show you the way you should go.
Deuteronomy 1: 29-33 NIV

I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you should go; I will counsel you with My eye upon you. Psalm 32: 8 NASB

The steps of a man are established by the Lord; and He delights in his way. When he falls, he shall not be hurled headlong; because
the Lord is the One who holds his hand. Psalms 37: 23-24 NASB

Thus says the Lord to His anointed… whom I have taken by the right hand, …to open doors before him so that gates will not be shut:
“I will go before you and make the rough places smooth.” Isaiah 45: 1a, 2a NASB

Thoughts on the word…

If we allow it, God carries us in His arms to take us where we need to be. He prepares the path for us to walk on, He holds our hand to
lead us and keep us from falling. He plans our steps. He levels out the bumps in the road to keep us from falling. He teaches us His
way. He honors us with His presence – bringing us joy. And when, in spite of everything, we fall, He picks us up and holds on.

God’s Word says, “don’t be afraid.” We don’t need to fear because He goes before us. He carries us when necessary, or He levels out
the path. He shows us where to walk and walks beside us.

Without Me

Beloved, why do you strive? Why do you spend your time and energies trying to make things work? Do what is best. Abide in Me.
Remain in Me. Stay with Me. Only as you join yourself to Me, live connected to me, are you enabled to do what I have called you to
do. Only as you remain in Me will you be fruitful in all you do. Spend your time with Me. Bask in My presence. If you must, rearrange
your schedule, rearrange your priorities, whatever it takes to spend time with Me.

I am calling you to come and sit in My presence and soak up My love. Only then you will be able to go out in obedience to Me and
accomplish what I send you to do. The more needs you see, the more you see there is to do, the more time you need to spend in My
presence, abiding in My love, soaking up My essence.

Do you not see that you, My children, cannot produce fruit through your own efforts. All your striving, all your work, all your own lofty
ideas will not produce fruit for the Kingdom. Without Me you can do nothing. Come into My presence. Enter in and stay with Me until
you are changed and empowered, until you are refreshed and renewed. Then you will see fruitfulness. Come and stay with Me.

Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in
Me. I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without me you can do nothing. You
did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain… John 15:4-
5, 16 NKJV

NO CONFUSION

Just now as I begin to think over some of what He has spoken to me for the past year and even before I saw a vision.

I saw many people milling about. They were not in a crowd. They seemed to be in small groups and individuals all seemingly going their
own way, circling around as though lost or in unfamiliar territory. I could see that most of them lacked confidence. They were unsure of
themselves and where they were. I saw some who looked confident yet kept circling around. I saw others who just stood and waited, as
thought waiting for direction. Then I saw some of them begin to move with a sureness of direction. They seemed to straighten
themselves, stand and walk more uprightly than before. Not so downcast and confused.

Then Holy Spirit began to speak of the present and what is to come.

“ Beloved,

My voice is coming through many different people on the earth and it seems from many directions as the sound of the waters of a
fountain. But My word is not confusing. However, I am speaking many things for those who will hear.

Don’t be confused when you hear of the restoration and revival to come from one voice while another speaks of being alert and on
guard for the dangers and confusion that lies ahead. I encourage My people as well as warn them. Have I not told you that without My
Spirit you would not be able to understand or to face what is to come? Trust My Spirit to guide you in truth.

Do not be dismayed. Do not be confused. Look into My Word to confirm what you hear. For those who are walking close to Me,
following My ways will see increase. They will experience increase in anointing, increasing power, increasing light, increasing truth.
You will see more of what you have asked for; more of My Spirit, more of My presence with you.

And this will be in the midst of problems and rumors of more wars, rumors of greater devastation. Do not be misled. There will be
danger, there will be warfare, there will be greater warfare in the spirit realm, there will be problems of life that will seem to increase
and be overwhelming.

But you are not to look to look to the kingdoms and governments of this world to see what I am doing. Keep your eyes on Me and My
Word. Keep your ears tuned to My voice. Hold fast to the truth that I have given you. I am with you. I will not forsake you. I will hold
you up and carry you through whatever comes. Do not concern yourself with what is happening in the world.

Look to what is happening in My kingdom. You are of My kingdom. You are heirs of the kingdom. Strengthen your feeble hands and
your trembling knees. Step up to the front. Stand firm in what you know. You will see increase. You will see My power poured out in a
greater way. You will find that you walk in a greater power with greater confidence than ever before – regardless of what is happening
in the world. Remember that you are to prepare and position yourself to be ready for all that is to come. Be ready.

I repeat to you, Beloved, ‘stay focused.’ Look to Me and Me only. There is great change both good and bad. Keep your eyes on Me
and all that I am doing, knowing that My peace is sufficient, My grace continues, My love is everlasting and all enduring – and you
belong to Me.”
