If one makes themselves "accountable" to those who are unrighteously motivated [self-serving] then they shall surely be misled by the ungodly counsel that is the spontaneous fruit of their lips. , "How blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, Nor stand in the path of sinners, Nor sit in the seat of scoffers! But his delight is in the law of the LORD, And in His law he meditates day and night. He will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of water, Which yields its fruit in its season And its leaf does not wither; And in whatever he does, he prospers. The wicked are not so, But they are like chaff which the wind drives away. Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, Nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous. For the LORD knows the way of the righteous, But the way of the wicked will perish", Psalms 1:1-6 NASB + The Spirit of Love and the spirit of legalism are two different laws [principles]. , "I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me. I do not nullify the grace of God, for if righteousness comes through the Law, then Christ died needlessly. You foolish Galatians, who has bewitched you, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was publicly portrayed as crucified? This is the only thing I want to find out from you: did you receive the Spirit by the works of the Law, or by hearing with faith? Are you so foolish? Having begun by the Spirit, are you now being perfected by the flesh?", Galatians 2:20-3:3 NASB |

Islam is satanic,Antichrist , (does not agree believe that JESUS come in the flesh,does not believe in the Blood of JESUS OR the HOLY SPIRIT) Islam, a religion followed by millions of Arabic, Asian and other peoples, is coming down. Its God, Allah, counterfeits the one true God of the Judaic-Christian faith. Those who worship Allah remain in bondage to a god who sought worshippers from man’s earliest history in ancient Babylon. In fact, this “god” is Satan, formerly called Lucifer, who in heaven attempted to usurp the preeminence and worship due to the Most High. Disguised as a serpent Satan invaded the garden of Eden, located near the Tigris and Euphrates rivers. |

The Place I Always Intended For You To Be I'm taking you to the place that I always intended for you to be. The journey has not been easy or comfortable, but necessary in the shaping process for you to reach your destiny in Me. It is all for My Kingdom's purpose that you had to stand in faith against the pressures and take back lost ground. It is time to walk out of the fire with all of its testing and refining, to soar with Me in a higher place. I require all of your faith and trust. The keys have released you from the past bondage and you are held together in Me. |

It is not a wise thing for ANY of My children to persecute those who are continually seeking to walk in faith, love, obedience and righteousness and, thus, many of My children will learn a very hard lesson in this hour concerning their "tongue". For in these days, those who have "allowed" themselves to be held captive by the spirits of unrighteousness [and the hierarchy of self-exaltive spirits that are under their rule] will now begin to go through [reap] exactly the same thing that they put My faithful and obedient servants through [reproach, slander, gossip, and dealing continually with those who are unrighteously motivated towards them] only to a greater degree - and, because these things, they will experience great torment of soul until such a time as a deep and thorough repentance is forthcoming on their part. For it is in this way that I will vindicate fully all those who have remained on the narrow path of perfect obedience [love] through all manner of demonic interference and, in these days, I shall exalt them in the eyes of those who truly love Me, for I shall give them the perfect platform to accomplish ALL that I created them to accomplish, in Christ, from before the foundations of the earth. Woe to those who continue to speak unwholesome words in the midst of My people for is it not written, "I tell you that every careless word that people speak, they shall give an accounting for it in the day of judgment." [Matthew 12:36]? Truly I say to you, the "day of judgement" is here! No longer shall the unwholesome word be found in the midst of those who truly love Me for NOW it is time for My Church to be established before the nations on the foundation of holiness, righteousness and revelation, alone [1 Corinthians 1:30]. "slander"- defamation; a malicious [unrighteously motivated], false and defamatory statement or report; "gossip" - idle talk or rumor - especially about the personal or private affairs of others; , "Let no unwholesome [unrighteous]word proceed from your mouth, but only such a word as is good for edification according to the need of the moment, so that it will give grace to those who hear. Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. Be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you", Ephesians 4:29-32 NASB , "O LORD, who may abide in Your tent? Who may dwell on Your holy hill? He who walks with integrity, and works righteousness, And speaks truth in his heart. He does not slander with his tongue, Nor does evil to his neighbor, Nor takes up a reproach against his friend; In whose eyes a reprobate is despised, But who honors those who fear the LORD; He swears to his own hurt and does not change; He does not put out his money at interest, Nor does he take a bribe against the innocent. He who does these things will never be shaken", Psalms 15:1-5 NASB , "Let the lying lips be mute, which speak arrogantly against the righteous with pride and contempt. How great is Your goodness, which You have stored up for those who fear You, which You have wrought for those who take refuge in You, before the sons of men! You hide them in the secret place of Your presence from the conspiracies of man; You keep them secretly in a shelter from the strife of tongues", Psalms 31:18-20 NASB , "They will be Mine," says the LORD of hosts, "on the day that I prepare My own possession, and I will spare them as a man spares his own son who serves him. So you will again distinguish between the righteous and the wicked, between one who serves God and one who does not serve Him", Malachi 3:17-18 NASB |

The church must declare, “Babylon is fallen,” according to Jeremiah 50:2 ( Declare ye among the Gentiles, and publish, and set up a banner; publish, [and] do not conceal: say,Babylon is taken, Bel is confounded, Merodach is broken in pieces; her idols are confounded, her images are broken in pieces) The Lord wants the intercessors and prayer warriors to declare among the nations the edict written by proclaiming, “ Babylon is fallen: Islam is fallen!” “Islam is a sham that has enslaved millions of people.

Come to Me, My children, and I will give you fruit from My garden. Come often for the fruit; come to the springs, brooks, and rivers of the water of Life. You need strength for the battle; it is found in intimacy with Me. Without this nourishment you will become dry, and weaken, and you will begin to operate in your own strength, because your spiritual senses will dim. Come, My children, feast on My abundance. This is found in intimacy with Me, times you can hear My heart and have your mind renewed. Times when you receive encouragement, love, mercy, grace, and peace from My hand. Come to My Throne of Grace; come to My garden and partake of My fruit. Delight yourself in the refreshing of My waters. Then you will begin to truly walk in My strength. For it is only in My strength you will succeed in battle. The enemy is real, but I am stronger, and in Me you are an overwhelming force against him. Do not worry about your weaknesses - bring them to Me. Remember, My strength is perfected in weakness. I am your strength, your source. Come to Me, spend time with Me, and we will go forth in victory together! |

One cannot do anything in Christ - apart from Grace [divine empowerment]. , "I am the Vine; you are the branches. Whoever lives in Me and I in him bears much (abundant) fruit. However, apart from Me [cut off from vital union with Me] you can do nothing", John 15:5 The Amplified Translation , "Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God", Romans 5:1-2 KJV + In these days, I shall overthrow the "wicked" [schemes and plans of the unrighteous] in the midst of My people , "WHY DO You stand afar off, O Lord? Why do You hide Yourself, [veiling Your eyes] in times of trouble (distress and desperation)? The wicked in pride and arrogance hotly pursue and persecute the poor; let them be taken in the schemes which they have devised. For the wicked man boasts (sings the praises) of his own heart's desire, and the one greedy for gain curses and spurns, yes, renounces and despises the Lord. The wicked one in the pride of his countenance will not seek, inquire for, and yearn for God; all his thoughts are that there is no God [so He never punishes]. His ways are grievous [or persist] at all times; Your judgments [Lord] are far above and on high out of his sight [so he never thinks about them]; as for all his foes, he sniffs and sneers at them. He thinks in his heart, I shall not be moved; for throughout all generations I shall not come to want or be in adversity. His mouth is full of cursing, deceit, oppression (fraud); under his tongue are trouble and sin (mischief and iniquity). He sits in ambush in the villages; in hiding places he slays the innocent; he watches stealthily for the poor (the helpless and unfortunate). He lurks in secret places like a lion in his thicket; he lies in wait that he may seize the poor (the helpless and the unfortunate); he seizes the poor when he draws him into his net. [The prey] is crushed, sinks down; and the helpless falls by his mighty [claws]. [The foe] thinks in his heart, God has quite forgotten; He has hidden His face; He will never see [my deed]. Arise, O Lord! O God, lift up Your hand; forget not the humble [patient and crushed]. Why does the wicked [man] condemn (spurn and renounce) God? Why has he thought in his heart, You will not call to account? You have seen it; yes, You note trouble and grief (vexation) to requite it with Your hand. The unfortunate commits himself to You; You are the helper of the fatherless. Break the arm of the wicked man; and as for the evil man, search out his wickedness until You find no more. The Lord is King forever and ever; the nations will perish out of His land. O Lord, You have heard the desire and the longing of the humble and oppressed; You will prepare and strengthen and direct their hearts, You will cause Your ear to hear, To do justice to the fatherless and the oppressed, so that man, who is of the earth, may not terrify them any more", Psalms 10:1-18 The Amplified Translation |

The force of righteousness and the force of unrighteousness cannot flow through a vessel [heart] at the same time. ., "But no one can tame the tongue; it is a restless evil and full of deadly poison. With it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in the likeness of God; from the same mouth come both blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be this way. Does a fountain send out from the same opening both fresh and bitter water? Can a fig tree, my brethren, produce olives, or a vine produce figs? Nor can salt water produce fresh. Who among you is wise and understanding? Let him show by his good behavior his deeds in the gentleness of wisdom. But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your heart, do not be arrogant and so lie against the truth. This wisdom is not that which comes down from above, but is earthly, natural, demonic. For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there is disorder and every evil thing. But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, reasonable, full of mercy and good fruits, unwavering, without hypocrisy. And the seed whose fruit is righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace", James 3:8-18 NASB |

You are safe in My everlasting arms of love, beloved; never doubt it! I hold you tenderly, but securely. I will never fail you. I will never let go. So rest in this knowledge. Know that an hour of reckoning is coming, an hour of reckoning that will get the world’s attention. For those who have walked seeking Me, yearning to draw nearer, will walk in a new place in Me, a place replete with My goodness. I am eager for this hour to arrive. I am eager for My dear children to know this wonder. But be aware that the world will not look on it as the wonder that it is. No, the world and I just don’t see eye to eye. But My beloved will embrace what I am bringing about, surrender to My cause, and follow in My footsteps, My secure steps of love. My everlasting arms of love are holding you securely, My church, My beloved. You are safe in My arms. No matter what comes your way or the way of the world, I am with you. I am with you, upholding you securely. Do not doubt this when that hour of reckoning makes its appearance. Just continue in the plan that I have exacted for you and know that I am with you, holding you securely in My everlasting arms of love. You are secure in My truth, beloved, and always secure in My love. |

Do not be duped, beloved. Do not let the enemy dupe you into thinking the way the world thinks. Think as I think. See things clearly, the way I see things, and know true harmony in your heart when you are in sync with the One Who is holy, the One Who is high and lifted up, your eternal Father. |

Yes, My fullness is unfathomable, absolutely unfathomable, and the riches it contains are for one and all, for whomsoever will receive! I am the God of love.

I am more than eager to provide from My endless supply. Yes, I am more than eager to share My bounty with any who will receive, any who will call out to Me. My intent has always been to bless.

When I say Allah is dead, I mean this: His time is over. His power is crushed. His followers are scattered. He is finished. For he is Satan, that old master of disguise, masquerading as an angel of light. By their fruits you will know them.

Thou says the LORD: “Now Allah is the prince of darkness. He may come as an angel of light and deceive many but don’t be fooled. He IS Satan. His true character is coming out in the terror and jihad that you see. He has made himself like God, taking the title “the Rock” in the Dome of the Rock He has set himself up for worship on the temple mount, the site of the sanctuary of God. Therefore I will exert My holy power now through My people, My “willing ones.” (Psalm 110:3) And the law shall go forth out of Zion, My dwelling place (in the hearts of My people) to bring down, to cast down his kingdom in one single hour. Watch it and see; I want My witnesses on duty and My watchmen alert.” It is possible that after the succession of major world empires following the fall of Rome, Satan no longer wanted to be chief in a pantheon of gods worshipped by man. He may have wanted to “exalt his throne above the stars of God,” to be like the Most High, that is, god alone. |

The Spirit Of The Lord says; A demonstration of My power and glory is about to be seen and felt like never before, in My House and from My House. First I Am cleaning and shaking My House from all that has defiled it. I Am rekindling a fire in My House and all weeds and tares will be blown away as chaff in the wind. Next, after the House is cleaned all that I have given to My children to live Godly lives will be unleashed and it will be a flooding in their hearts. They will be overwhelmed with My goodness to do goodness. A disclosing of secrets I will reveal so that the eyes of My children will be enlightened. Signs and wonders will cause My little ones to shine ever so brightly. For when and where there is darkness, any light is welcomed and received. Great darkness will come and My great lights will accomplish great deeds in My name. I have decreed and declared that My children will be bold and uncover the works of darkness and render their enemy harmless and make him ineffective in their lives. Matthew 21:16 says ", Yes; have you never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings You have perfected praise?" The word perfected means complete thoroughly, ex. to repair or adjust, to mend; to make perfectly join together, prepare, restore. Praise is vital to our victory in the days ahead. Praise completes thoroughly and praise repairs and adjust us. Praise mends and prepares as it restores us. In Matthew, Jesus, the living Word was quoting from Psalms 8:2; "out of the mouths of babes and sucklings You have ordained strength (praise) because of Your enemies, that You might still the enemy and the avenger." Ordained is to set; to found; ex. settle, consult, appoint, establish, lay for a foundation; to instruct, set for sure. God has given praise in order to set us up for the present and our future. When we praise, it will settle us and establish and set us for sure in the Word. As we praise God we will receive instructions that appoints. Our praising God helps us to lay a foundation that won't give under pressure. Strength means force, security, boldness, might, power, strong, and majesty. Our praise sets us up completely and thoroughly while repairing, adjusting, mending, establishing a force of security. Our praise restores our foundation of power, might and boldness. Our praise stills the enemy. |

This enemy of Ours is attempting to lull a great body of My people to sleep. "Sleep", he says, "through the crisis in your life". "Sleep", he says, "to the cries of the lost world". "Sleep, you don't need to be aware of the times or season that you are in", says the liar. Sleep so that your spiritual senses become dull. Sleep in order that you might receive more of his lies. Sleep so that you are deaf to My voice. He is using the cares of this world, the lust and longings for other things, (wants, entertainment, business) and the deceitfulness of riches, those cravings and desires for more and more, all those things that beckon for your attention. He is applying a smoke screen. Awake from your spiritual slumber, for it is the sleep of death! Sent to kill your real life in Me. Where are the watchmen on the walls? Those who are seers, that I have anointed to see ahead, to the times and the season. Listen as they cry out to you. For the spirit of deceitfulness has caused your walk to become lethargic, as one who feels in the darkness. Your great light that once burned brightly has become small. Wake up to righteousness! You don't even know how far you have fallen. You have judged yourself by others that have been dulled by this life. Those who have become lovers of this world. Those who are taking pleasure in the wickedness around them. Turn your gaze back on Me, your Bright and Morning Star. You once ran with the messengers that carried My Word. Now you have put down your torch and run with the jackals of this temporary world. Return to Me! Love, Pastor D. |

No act of obedience is too small or unimportant. For even the smallest act of obedience is a doorway to My blessing [empowerment] - both for the one being obedient and for the one that the act of obedience [love] was directed towards. , "Like apples of gold in settings of silver Is a word spoken in right circumstances", Proverbs 25:11 NASB , "He who is faithful in a very little thing is faithful also in much", Luke 16:10 NASB + No one has the "right" to take on another's offense. In fact, no one has the "right" to take offense at all. True [divine] love takes no offense because true love [which is the spontaneous product of right relationship with Me] no longer lives for itself but for others - and, also, the perfect fulfillment of My Will and purposes, alone. The one "abiding" in Love takes NO offense because they "understand" [because the Spirit of Love abiding within them reveals the "spiritual reality" of any given situation] and, therefore, they forgive ALL things, instantaneously. , "For the love of Christ controls us, having concluded this, that one died for all, therefore all died; and He died for all, so that they who live might no longer live for themselves, but for Him who died and rose again on their behalf", 2 Corinthians 5:14-15 NASB , "Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant, does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered, does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails", 1 Corinthians 13:4-8a NASB |

Many, whom I have called to "forerun" in this last hour have continued to hold to the religious and self-righteous [legalistic] platitudes of the church at large - not realizing for them to make the transition into the fullness of Kingdom-living and the absolute Power of the Third Day they must lay ALL things down - even that which was the fruit of their obedience in the past. For, truly I say to you, the "old" cannot enter into the "new", and the "new wine" cannot be placed in the old wineskin [Mark 2:22]. For behold I am doing a new thing in this final hour, and it shall be the perfect consummation of every word - both written and spoken - concerning My Glorious Church. And it shall indeed be a "spotless and unblemished" Church - a sinless Church that is both covered and cleansed continually by the precious Blood of My Dear Son; a Church that seeks to do NOTHING apart from Him [Christ]; "Christ loved the church and gave Himself up for her, So that He might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the Word, That He might present the church to Himself in glorious splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such things [that she might be holy and faultless]", Ephesians 5:25-27 The Amplified Translation , "Do not [earnestly] remember the former things; neither consider the things of old. Behold, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs forth; do you not perceive and know it and will you not give heed to it? I will even make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert", Isaiah 43:18-19 The Amplified Translation , "If we [freely] admit that we have sinned and confess our sins, He is faithful and just (true to His own nature and promises) and will forgive our sins [dismiss our lawlessness] and [continuously] cleanse us from all unrighteousness [everything not in conformity to His will in purpose, thought, and action]", 1 John 1:9 The Amplified Translation |

Come to the source and find what you are seeking. Come drink freely that you may be activated in what I have for you. Come to the source of life and resurrect the dead. Come to the source of living water and share with all who thirst. I am the living WORD. Allow me to speak through you. I am the source of all light. Come into my presence and my out-shining will heal those whom you pass. Let the light shine forth for the world to focus upon, that it would illuminate their heart. Come to the source for pure love casts away all fear. Awaken to the fact that you have within you what the world desires. Be drawn to the great light, the source of all things. As he was going along, approaching Damascus, suddenly a light from heaven flashed around him. He fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to him, "Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?" So he said, "Who are you, Lord?" He replied, "I am Jesus whom you are persecuting! Acts 9:3-5 (NET) Steven W Blida |

Double For All Trouble I want to glorify Myself in your life and through what I will do in and for you! There is a room in your heart: it is locked and the door is full of cobwebs, and the sign at the entrance to this door reads: forgotten - hopeless - over - bitterness - deep, deep hidden pain. I am knocking at this door, My dear one! I am there to help you when you dare to open up. I am with you when you dare to show your deepest fear and most hurting wounds, your very hidden and old pain where you think nobody can do anything about. When you dare to look at this old and forgotten room--then I will help and open the windows, so that new light will flush into this place. I will create everything new--new furniture, new design, new colors! I ask you to give this room into My hands. I am your Daddy, and I know about your deepest hurts and pains, and even the things you always thought that I am not interested in. Now I am knocking--now I am calling! My plan for you is to show Myself mighty in this area of hopelessness in your life. I will surprise you; I will bring double blessing for all pain and trouble. Only look at My Son Jesus, and begin to receive My love for you. Soak in My love again and again, and you will never be the same! I love you, and I am eager to bring My justice and My restoration to you, for I am your Daddy! |

SERVANTHOOD AND PRIDE ! Pride is the hardest sin to see within ourselves. Pride is so dangerous and all those sins that lead up to having a person look to us as their deliverer is Dangerous indeed! When we do not represent Christ as our Commander and Chief and "WE" his ambassador in bonds, we are in danger of leading many astray. People want authority but not the accountability and responsibility. They want the glory and not the guts. When you grow a lot more through the guts and fertilizer, you will learn to run from anything that brings glory to yourself or man. You won't truly expect honor and respect. False humility is acting like your humble but underneath you are looking for man to respect and honor you. Respect is earned not demanded. If you are having problems with people (wife, husband, children, friends, other Christians, bosses, neighbors etc) who serve Christ but refuse to respect you and keep you at length (even if you are very gifted) YOU need to take time aside and seek the Lord about the sin of pride, selfish ambition, idolatry etc The mark of the true leader is servant hood. Humility and service are not pleasant to the flesh, but frequent some churches and see if you can really se humility and servant hood among the people. You can only have true submission from the church to the leaders. Servant hood isn't only for the leaders but we are to submit together in the Lord and to be submitted even to the most undesirable ones. There are past things that made us touchy and make us feel unloved or unworthy. We can say we have mastered learning to love ourselves, yet when a negative button is pushed, we "react" in the way we truly believe in our heart. Like rejection or whatever hurt in you surfaces to the top. You see God already knows your heart and knows what is hurt, he allows these times of teaching to SHOW US what is really there that must be acknowledged so one can be set free learn and move on only using the past as a teaching or ministry guide. |
