Pearls

What are pearls made of? Pearls are formed when a piece of sand or
other irritant wounds the oyster or clam. It secretes a substance
that over the years and many layers harden into a beautiful, costly
pearl. Which do you want to be - the irritant or the beautiful pearl?
God sees us as more priceless than the costly pearl. Oh for His vision!

The more costly pearls are formed at deeper depths. God sends pearls
into our lives via tears by family, friends and situations. If we did
not cry getting us through the wounds, we would not grow and learn.
How costly a pearl are you going to be?

Some facts of light

And the fire upon the altar shall be kept burning on it; it shall not be
allowed to go out. The priest shall burn wood on it every morning and lay
the burnt offering in order upon it and he shall burn on it the fat of the
peace offerings. Leviticus 6:12 (AMP)


You are my light, created with destiny to affect the world in this time.
My light will increase within you if you will allow me to continue my work
within you. Light dispels darkness and greater light dispels the outer
darkness.
My fire burns within you. You radiate my glory. The darkness of hell flees
as we enter in.


And the Light shines on in the darkness, for the darkness has never
overpowered it [put it out or absorbed it or appropriated it, and is
unreceptive to it]. John 1:5 (AMP)

The Greatest Need

Beloved, there is a great move of God coming, and it will be love. For if we give everything we own to the poor and even go to the stake to be burned as a martyr, but don't have love, we've gotten nowhere. Love is the greatest human need; until that need is met, it's impossible for people to have life, abundantly. They may think they have life. They may try many vices to fill the cracks in their hearts—another spouse, another sport, another degree. Or, an addiction that demands more and more, but contains an unattainable goal established by hell. But even as sin abounds, amazing, saving grace is drawing the sinners to the Life-giver.

Love is really the only option, you know. For: "The one who does not love his brother whom he has seen, cannot love God whom he has not seen" (1 John 4:20). Think about it—we cannot even fathom, nor would we want to, a God who stops loving, and He calls us to be imitators of Him—so we cannot stop loving.

Love is the greatest force on earth, as it is in Heaven. It never fails. It overpowers all elements on earth—hurricanes, nuclear power, fire and gross darkness. Amazing, how the spikes truly did not hold Jesus on the Cross, for He could have called ten thousand angels. Love held Him there. How incomprehensible—a person, fully God/fully man, was prepared to die for the sin of the world. Are we?

In this hour God is preparing His Bride, and what does a bride do? LOVES! Now we might ask, What does that love look like? Well, the Lord has made it a piece of cake for us.

Love never gives up

It cares more for others than for self

It doesn't want what it doesn't have

It doesn't strut

It doesn't have a swelled head

It doesn't force itself on others

It isn't always "me first"

It doesn't fly off the handle

It doesn't keep score of the sins of others

It doesn't revel when others grovel

It takes pleasure in the flowering of truth

It puts up with anything

It trusts God always

It always looks for the best

It never looks back, but keeps going to the end


As we are heading down the aisle, let's remember: "This is love: that we walk in obedience to His commands. As you have heard from the beginning, His command is that you walk in love" (2 John 1:6 NIV).

Overcome The Darkness By the Power Of The Holy Spirit
?

2 Tim 3:1-9
?
But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come:2 For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,3 unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good,4 traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!6 For of this sort are those who creep into households and make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts,7 always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.8 Now as Jannes and Jambres resisted Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, Disapproved concerning the faith;9 but they will progress no further, for their folly will be manifest to all, as theirs also was.
NKJV

?
Eph 6:12-13
?We do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day
NKJV

?
Matt 24:5-6
5 For many will come in My name, saying, 'I am the Christ,' and will deceive many.
NKJV

?
Be careful so no one misleads you, even those that speak in the strength of Jesus name and say Jesus is the Christ, and believe in Jesus but they also ?teach errors, false doctrine and lead many astray. They deny the power of God. The Lord has said to stay away from such people, have I the Lord not given you the power to over come darkness, are you not filled with My Holy Spirit, if you are not filled with My Holy Spirit you can not walk in power to overcome the devil and his demons. My people be filled afresh each and every day. You will face battles each day and to be victorious you must seek Me, you must do this you can not expect some else to do it for you. A great darkness has come on the world, so you must move forward in the power of the Holy Spirit. Raise My banner high and declare the rightness of the Lord God in My Sons name Jesus The Christ. Those who walk in, believe in, and rely on My Holy Spirit power win the victory, says the Lord. ?

@ uchmnadada

Jesus christ is the mediator between man and GOD, not mary,letter or chain.
it is through the blood of Jesus that we are draw near to the father not trough mary.
mary was with the apostle in the upper room when the Holy ghost came.
The blood and the spirit agree.

GOD does nothing for a man without the blood of his HOLY son.
God is looking and anointing JOSEPH  for endtime ministry, with wealth those that money we flow through them
to body of christ not for personal gratification.

Continue:

Divine authority bereft of the Divine Nature of God.
It is possible to walk in the divine authority of God and perform miracles and healings without partaking of the divine nature of God.
I would challenge you that MUCH of the divine authority expressed today is done apart from the motivation of the divine nature of God.
Jesus said it like this:

Matt. 7:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in your name? and in your name have cast out devils?
and in your name done many wonderful works? 23 And then will I profess to them, I never knew you:
depart from me, you that work iniquity (lawlessness).


Jesus is telling these who have exerted divine authority that He never knew them. In effect :
You did not partake of my nature and do what was on my heart.
Doing His works apart from His heart is considered iniquity. (Greek = Without law)

Even Jesus's disciples did not understand the divine nature of God until after Pentecost.
Luke 9:54-55 James and John want to call fire from heaven and consume the Samaritans,
and Jesus rebuked them saying " You do not know what manner (nature) of spirit you are of"

I Cor. 13:1-8 Clearly speaks of the things that are done; prophesy, tongues, moving mountains, etc.
But all these things are meaningless apart from love.


Change is Coming
God is raising up genuine apostles that walk in both the divine nature and divine authority of the Lord.
Once again the defining aspect of the Body of Christ will be LOVE.
Divine Love that expresses itself with the divine authority of God to touch people with the mercy of God.
For by this Love all men will know we are His.

Remember Faith


Remember. Remember when you walked with Me in faith and not fear. Let
Me take you back to the beginning, lest you forget the way it was, the
way it has been, the way that it will be. For in the beginning there
was darkness, and My Spirit hovered over the places of the deep and
spoke light. What is seen is not the end but the beginning of the
difference.

Remember. Remember I am He who sees a barren womb and speaks life.
Remember that I am He who sees sickness and speaks health. Remember
that I take what is not to make into nothing what is. There is no task
too great for Me, there is no task too small, too unimportant to Me who
always has time. Remember, I hold time in My hands. I am the creator
of all things.

I have told you to have no fear. Have no fear, for I have not given
you a Spirit of fear, but one of love, peace and sound mind. In all
things come to Me. In all things, bend your knee and pray and I hear
the prayers that you whisper, that you weep, that you sing. I hear, yes,
I do hear. Now why have you let fear hold your hand and lead you into
these places of fatigue? Do you not remember Me? Do you not remember
the promises I made and that they are YES and AMEN? Have you forgotten
so soon and chosen to walk in fear instead of faith?

Lift your head and strengthen your heart. Fill yourself with My word
and meet with My people, who will strengthen and encourage you. Do not
look at what you fear but look at what will come from this. From darkness
came light. From barrenness came life. From sickness came health. From
death came life. All this at My hand. Share. Share in the glories of My
kingdom, not the place of fear. What can it offer you that you go there,
that you walk alone there?

You have walked with Me and walked in faith; do not turn to the left or
right but walk the path that is narrow, the path that is true, the path
that brings life. I have promised to meet all your needs. All your
needs. Come to Me, weary and heavy laden as you are and find rest for
your soul, and leave fear behind now. Come to Me and ask. I will not
hold back. I will not refuse. I will not turn away but I will hold you
and there you will find comfort.

I Am

I am the Prince of Peace, and the Lord of all lords. I've conquered
death by My sacrifice at Calvary, and My glorious resurrection on the
third day. No thing is too hard for Me. Trust Me with your life, for I
know what is best for you. I created you, my child, and hold you in the
palm of My hand. I will lead you and guide you as you yield to Me each
day. My plans for you are perfect. I chose you and adopted you from the
foundation of the world. I never said you would not have trials and
tribulations, but I have promised to take you through them, teaching
you through them.

I am the All-Consuming Fire. I will burn away all that is of the flesh.
Abide in Me and you will bear much fruit. My anointing goes before you,
and you will see blind eyes open; the deaf will hear, the lame will
walk, the dead will be risen to life in My Name. Hold My promises close
to your heart. I am Faithful and True. Trust Me with your life. Take
your eyes off the cares of this world. My kingdom is not one of flesh
or darkness, but of light and spirit. I am the Light. Worship Me in
Spirit and Truth, and you will not fulfill the lusts of your flesh. I am
your Provider, your Refuge and Healer. Yield your life as a living
witness. I love you with a perfect and eternal love, My child. Rest in
Me.

I Have Chosen You

You have not chosen Me, but I have chosen you and I have appointed
you [I have planted you], that you might go and bear fruit and keep
on bearing, and that your fruit may be lasting [that it may remain,
abide], so that whatever you ask the Father in My Name [as presenting
all that I AM], He may give it to you. John 15:17 (AMP)


I have chosen you. I have chosen you to move out into the world, to bring
forth change. Love the unlovely, for I have chosen them also to walk with
Me. Choose My ways and stop judging them by standards I don't use.

I have chosen you that you might have life; abide in My ways. Do not grow
tired or discouraged. You are My creation and I have chosen you.

I have chosen you to be continually filled with My Spirit. I have chosen
you to be My light. There are those who will not know of My Son without
you.

You ask for a detailed map. I have shown you My pathway. Continue to
follow what I reveal. It is through your unique character and abilities
that My ways touch those around you. I have chosen you.

I have chosen you to succeed, to prosper, and fulfill the purposes I have
placed within you.

The Divine Nature of God

It was Moses who sought to know the Glory of God. It was God who proclaimed His goodness and revealed to Moses the nature of His being, which was that He is abundant in goodness and truth.

Ex. 34:6 And the LORD passed by before him, and proclaimed, The LORD, The LORD God, merciful and gracious, long-suffering, and abundant in goodness and truth 7 Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, and on the children’s children, to the third and to the fourth generation.

In the Psalms we see the nature of God expressed.

Ps 145:8 The LORD is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy.

God is not just compassionate, He is FULL of compassion. An attribute of His nature that is the basis for His dealings with men. When you contact or bump into something, whatever it is full of spills out. We see this in people full of anger, bumping into a person full of anger causes anger to spill out . In the ministry of Jesus we see this principle wherever he went. The compassion of God rose up within Him in many situations He faced and He responded with divine authority according to the divine compassion that overflowed from Him.

Christ (the Anointed one) Walked Fully in BOTH the Divine Nature and Divine Authority of God
In Jesus we see divine compassion (love) that moved Him to exercise His divine authority.

Matt. 9:36 Jesus has compassion on the people and sends out the disciples with authority to cast out Devils and heal the sick.
Matt 14:14 Jesus has compassion and heals the sick.
Matt. 15:32 Jesus has compassion and feeds the multitudes.
Matt 20:34 Jesus has compassion and heals two blind men.
Mark 1:41 Jesus has compassion and heals the leper.
Luke 7:13 Jesus has compassion and raises the widows son from the dead.
John 11:35 Jesus weeps and then raises Lazarus


While not every miracle Jesus did has His compassion recorded as preceding it,
we can see a pattern of motivation on the part of the Lord for exercising divine authority to touch people with His mercy.
This mode of ministry does not line up with many ministry models in this present day.

An End-Time-Vision, important
==============
While trying to prepare my message, the Lord showed me a vision.

I saw a large pasture with very many sheep. All of a sudden, from
every direction and from all over, came wolves upon the herd, mixing
themselves amongst the sheep. Neither the shepherds nor the shepherd
dogs (of utmost importance) sounded any alarm.
They lay on the floor as if hypnotized.
There was just a bit of panic within the herd.
The sheep did notice that something was wrong, but they took no serious note
of what was happening. They just continued grazing in a relaxed manner.
The shepherds and the shepherd dogs on the other hand noticed nothing.

As I observed closely, I saw the wolves, which had fangs like
snakes in their mouths, tweak (pinch or prick) the sheep on their buttocks.
These twitched briefly, and then continued their relaxed grazing.
After a short while, the wolves ran from the herd, withdrawing themselves
again into the mountains, without having stolen a sheep or inflicted any
visible harm on them.

On seeing all these things, I thought to myself. ‘This is not at all possible,
that wolves would come amongst sheep and not harm them. This is out of
character! Then as the wolves left the sheep, I saw all of a sudden the
leader of the wolf pack, together with his whole wolf followership on a high
cliff. It was like a great beast; a monster.
Then the wolves began to howl and yelp.
The shepherd, shepherd dogs and all the sheep were terrified, shivering and
shocked.

And the leader of the pack began, like a demon, to speak with a deep human
voice. “My dear shepherds, dogs and all my dear sheep. You now belong to us.
We have you completely in our hands.
We were amongst you, without your noticing anything. We worked
amongst you in disguise. We even inoculated you with a "serum" that makes you
now ours. You are all, as at now, bearing our “mark”.
We have also inoculated you with our spirit and data, without your having been
aware. There is now no more escape for you. The whole flock is now under our
control.

I then said in my spirit “No! The Lord is my shepherd. I will have nothing to
do with the devil and his demons. I will not have them as my shepherds”.
Then spoke the leader of the wolf pack even further with a sneer on his face,
saying “the sheep here ate and slept. Your bellies and welfare was
more important to you.

Now hear what this demon said to me very clearly: We have now come to take
revenge for our man of the Gadarenes. (See Mark 5:1-17) Back then, your Lord
cast us out of him, and we had to flee into sweine and spring into the abyss.
Now though, we have recovered and are strong enough to leave our
cursed dwellings again. We have therefore returned from the abyss to take
revenge against him (Jesus) and his works. These sheep all grazing here have
been infected by our demons from the abyss. They can no longer escape.
They belong to us absolutely.

I was shocked!
===========
Here, God spoke to me saying ‘my son, every person will be asked
to compulsorily take immunization against the swine flu in the next few days.
This is a disguise. They will in the process be infected with demons from the
abyss; all who do not have my spirit and my seal upon them.
Yes, it will be such that that they will receive a deadly spirit inoculated
into them. This will allow the wolves do with them what they like.
Whoever does not follow them, antagonises or stands against them in any way,
will be eliminated at the touch of a button.

For such will there be no more escape from them.
Yes it is true, my son says the Lord. These cursed spirits will arise again
out of the abyss and return through the ‘swine’ to continue their mischief
amongst the people who neither know nor follow me. I however, with my church
will do same as then. We will depart from that area. So will those demons
from the abyss exterminate one third of humanity.

Then said the Lord to me further.
But you, my children, who follow me, must be bold and brave, and say NO!
Do not allow yourselves to be pricked and inoculated.
You must consistently trust me.
I will take you with me to the other shore, and we will continue there.
For you my children, life goes on quite normally.
You are my sheep. You hear my voice and follow me. And I send you as sheep
amongst wolves. Warn all my children and all men of good will against this
worldwide compulsory inoculation. It appears harmless. It is not!

It is more the return on the ancient demons of the abyss. Warn everyone!
Even when you are termed “paranoid” and “terrorist”. You are my children,
and my people. You are holy. You should therefore have no other ‘stigma’ in
your bodies. Your body is a temple for my holy spirit, and not a secret
dwelling for demons, which had been cast out by me, from which I delivered
you, says the Lord. I am passing on this message as it was given me.

Dear friends,we are right in the end times. Watch quite carefully, what
happens to you and your children. The devil is, and remains a liar. Und he has
no good intentions. I was shaken, when God showed me this vision with the
swine, in connection with the whole thing about immunization against swine
flu.

The believers are about to undergo the end times test, where will be shown,
whether we have enough resistance power, enough to say NO.
You are not defenceless. God gave you his Holy Spirit and the whole armour
(see Ephesians 6: 16-17). These you will now need and must soon make use of.
If you are not yet a true child of God, repent! Be baptized and be filled the
Holy Spirit, so that the seal of God will be upon your life
(Ephesians 1:1,13, 4:30 and Revelations 7:3&4) and you cannot be touched for
the devil.

Pastor Joh.W.Matutis.

Now is the Season

My Child, be filled by My Spirit as I speak many mysteries and revelations
into your spirit. But first, you must prepare your heart and spirit to
contain all that I long to pour into you. You must learn to deflect the
arrows of the evil one by being clothed in My strength and righteousness.
Never doubt for one moment whose child you are, and do not doubt your
inheritance in Christ.

You must learn to discern My voice at all times. I will speak to you by
the outpouring of My Spirit upon you. You must receive it always by faith.
I have given you the gift of discernment and now is the season to use it
and to equip yourself for battle. All who see you will see My mark upon
your life. But will you at this time step up into your anointed position?
Be armored, My Child, by your helmet of salvation, breastplate of
righteousness, sword of My word and My Spirit of truth.

I will never leave you nor forsake you. My presence will always be with
you. But will you, beloved, choose to acknowledge My Holy presence?

Just as the Ark of the Israelites entered into battle to win and to
conquer, so will My presence go with you into all your battles. Where My
presence is, there you shall have victory in every area of your life. Now
is the season, beloved, to reclaim all that the enemy has taken from you
and the body of Christ. Arise, My beloved, and take up your inheritance
in Me. Your King will lead you into battle--and where I am, there you
will find victory.

I have covered you by the blood of My Son. There is a very distinct mark
upon your life. You have become both a target and a weapon of victory. In
My name you shall tear down strongholds in your life and the lives of this
nation. This is the season I have decreed for prisoners to be set free,
lives to be restored and the gospel of heaven to be proclaimed. Go forth,
precious Child, go forth in the full covering of My power and presence
upon your life and victory shall be ours.

Do you feel the shift in the atmosphere? There is a new freedom and flow
to move forward as one unit and one body in Christ. This battle is fought
and won in the Spirit. Therefore you must be attuned to My Spirit every
moment you are awake. I will sharpen all your spiritual gifts but you
must received by faith the mission I have assigned you. Remember I have
called you to the nations, My Child. The battle you fight you fight as a
part of the body of Christ.

I will teach and I will admonish, but you must allow your spirit to be
attuned to My leading at all times. Remain in Me, beloved, and I will
remain in you always. There is nothing the enemy can throw at you which
you cannot deflect, as long as you remember your inheritance and your
task. Call on My name and you will overcome the wiles of the evil one.

Vision: I saw a heavy and dark substance raining down on a shelter that looked like an A-frame structure. The structure was completely covered by the Blood, and was the perfect size for one to be able to move around freely - as the structure moved with them wherever they went.
The Father spoke to me and said:

The "heavy and dark substance raining down" is representitive of the persecutions, slander, gossip, reproach and revilings [unrighteous judgements] that have come against those who are abiding in faith, love, righteousness and obedience in this most critical hour. The "A-frame" structure "completely covered by the Blood" is representitive of the fact that there is perfect protection in the power of the Blood [and that nothing will "stick" - or influence a pure and faithful heart away from My Will], and a "refuge" for those who are truly seeking first the Kingdom - those who seek [at all cost to themselves] to be found righteously motivated in all things. The fact that the A-frame structure was the perfect size for any given individual is representitive of the fact that no matter what one is called to in Christ they have the supernatural liberty to move to and fro in the power and leading of My Spirit to accomplish the fullness of My Will purpose - knowing that they are divinely protected through their holy Covenant with Me.
The Father spoke to me again and said:

+ In these days, there will be a "persecution" rise up against My faithful and obedient ones. For these are the days wherein I am confronting ALL that is apart from Christ in the midst of My people and, thus, those that have "plateaued" in their heart have "allowed" a spirit of darkness to cover their eyes and their ears - and, thus, they have lost the power of understanding. In the midst of this persecution [reproach] let those who are walking in faithfulness and obedience [the fullness of their Covenant with Me] "endure" in a holy Love towards those who are used as vessels of persecution [reproach] against them - that, perhaps, those being used by the Evil One and his forces might be led to a clear "knowledge" [revelation] of the truth - the spontaneous fruit of that "revelation" being a deep and thorough repentance - through a godly sorrow.
"endure" - to hold out against; sustain without impairment or yielding; undergo; bear without resistance or with patience;

, "For in Him [Christ] we live and move and have our being", Acts 17:28 The Amplified Translation

, "Now you followed my teaching, conduct, purpose, faith, patience, love, perseverance, persecutions, and sufferings, such as happened to me at Antioch, at Iconium and at Lystra; what persecutions I endured, and out of them all the Lord rescued me! Indeed, all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will be persecuted", 2 Timothy 3:10-12 NASB

, "The Lord's bond-servant must not be quarrelsome, but be kind to all, able to teach, patient when wronged, with gentleness correcting those who are in opposition, if perhaps God may grant them repentance leading to the knowledge of the truth, and they may come to their senses and escape from the snare of the devil, having been held captive by him to do his will", 2 Timothy 2:24-26 NASB

The Seven Winds Of The Lord

In these last days, the Lord our God will blow through his Holy Spirit seven winds that will perfect his church, preparing her for the great coming harvest, strengthening her to remain firm in the midst of the great tribulation, and getting her ready for the second coming.

1.- WIND OF REPENTANCE
The Lord is calling each and every one of his sons and daughters in these final days to prepare to be used in the great commission (Matthew 28:19-20). The coming harvest will be so abundant that only a great army of disciples around the world will be able to gather it and sustain it. They will care for the Lord's new sheep, so that the fruit remains, and so the deceiver does not snatch away the seed of the word.

However, many of God's people will act like Jonah did, fleeing from the Lord's call, closing themselves in their own selfishness. Because of this, the Lord will blow a wind of "Repentance" (Jonah 1:4), that will bring difficult trials and adverse circumstances into the lives of many believers. At first they will think that the devil is doing it, but God's Spirit will break their cold and apathetic hearts, so that they can see that God himself put them into the belly of a big fish. The fruit of this experience will be sincere, Spirit-led repentance.

2.- WIND OF LOVE AND MERCY
Even once God's people have learned the lesson that the wind of repentance brings to their lives, many of God's servants will be working in their ministry mainly because of the difficult times that they experienced, in a legalistic and religious spirit, instead of in love for God and for their neighbor.

Because of this, the Lord will send and blow a wind of love and mercy, even as He did in the life of Jonah (Jonah 4:8-11). This wind will cause his people to stop working "for" the Lord, and start working "with" him. The love and mercy manifested in their hearts of God's servants will make the difference.

3.- WIND OF FREEDOM
The hidden sins in the hearts of God's people will come to the light. The lord will blow a strong wind in his church, revealing all iniquity and dead works among his people, and anything which blocks the full blessing that God has for his sons and daughters. The Lord will blow a strong wind in the midst of sin's darkness, bringing freedom to his people. Yes, this will be God's wind of Freedom (Exodus 14:21).

This wind will break bondages that keep God's people bound by satan, slaves of the flesh, and seduced by this world's pleasures. God will part the Red sea and free his people from sin's bondage. The blood of Jesus will cover a multitude of sins and wash the church of all wickedness (1 John 1:9).

4.- WIND OF SUBMISSION
And for those believers who conform to this world, and are apathetic, indifferent, and trust in their own strength, yes, for those who think that they already have they desire, with a nice comfortable life, the Lord will again awaken his "Euroclydon" wind (Acts 27:14), now called the "Wind of Submission."

This wind will beat so strongly against the boat of God's people, that the only way to continue will be to give up and allow the wind to take them wherever it wishes (Acts 27:15). But the purpose of this wind will not be completed until, so that their boat will not sink, God's people willingly throw overboard all the extra weight (Acts 27:19), which represents all those things, whether physical or of the soul, that limit the growth of Christ's bride and hinder her process of sanctification.

5.- WIND OF FAITH
Without faith it is impossible to please God. Before the miraculous and surprising can occur through God's people in the coming days in such a way that has never before been seen an will not happen again before the Lord's return, they must face God's wind of faith. It is amazing that in the scriptures, what really caused the fear in Peter's heart when he walked on the water to go to Jesus, was not the rough waves, nor the darkness of the night, but rather the "strong wind" (Matthew 14:30). This same wind that blew in the life of Peter to test and strengthen his faith, is being sent by the Lord all around the world to bring to life in his bride the faith necessary to conquer in the evil days and be powerfully used in the great harvest that is coming.

Although this wind will strongly shake God's people, it will also bring forth faith in their hearts, removing doubt and fear. Jesus himself is interceding today before the Father's throne that the faith of his people not fail, even as He prayed for Peter (Luke 22:32).

6.- WIND OF POWER
Once the previous winds of the Lord have fulfilled their purpose in the church, He will blow one more wind over his people, Yes, the longed-for "Wind of Power" (Acts 2:2).

The prophetic word spoken through Moses and Joel will come true in all its fullness (Numbers 11:29 and Joel 2:28), and all the Lord's servants will be filled with the Holy Spirit and will prophesy the "testimony of Jesus" to the whole world (Revelation 19:10) accompanied by signs, wonders, and miracles. It is only during this time that the great harvest that was prophesied will take place. Only a bride who is truly repentant, with a heart full of love and mercy for the lost, having submitted to the Lord each and every area of her life, and with great faith in her heart, will be able to participate in this great revival that is approaching, having been filled with the power of God.

7.- WIND OF JUDGEMENT AND RESCUE
In the same way that happened with the people of Israel, the Lord will blow his wind of judgement over the nations (Numbers 11:31-34). This wind will be called "Kib'-roth-hat-ta'-a-vah," because the Lord will bury the world's lust with the wind of his breath. His wind will wound the nations with terrible and destructive plagues, like never before seen since the foundation of the earth. This will be during the great tribulation.

Then a pause will come in this great judgement. God himself, the Lord of the winds (Mark 4:41), will cause to cease, through his four angels that stand at the four corners of the earth, the four winds of the earth, so that they no longer do harm until all of God's servants have been sealed on the forehead (Rev. 7:1-3). Afterwards the Lord will send his angels and they will gather together his elect from the four winds, from the farthest corner of the earth to the farthest corner of the heavens (Mark 13:27). Then the judgement will continue.

[b]WORDS OF WARNING FOR THE PEOPLE OF GOD

The wind of God is his own Holy Sprit. Allow him to blow in your life. Do not flee from his presence. Remember that you form part of the bride for which Jesus is coming soon. A bride which He himself is making ready.

"And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not; for it was founded upon a rock." Mathew 7:25

A Higher Place

My sons and My daughters, I call upon you and speak to you to encourage
you for some of you will be called out to pull down giants. Yes, warfare
is going heavily in the realm where the principalities and powers are
trying to rule, but you are going to pull them down. You are going to
speak in My Name. You have come out of the darkness. You are now walking
in the light. You are realizing My Presence is with you. You are
realizing victory for you have seen the mountains start to move and you
have seen sickness start to go and you have seen My life come alive in
you.

I speak to you to encourage you by My Spirit. For off in the distance you
will hear about a realm by My Spirit through your spirit. It is a realm of
Me; a realm of Me coming in glory, a realm of Me coming with My Anointing.
I am coming with My angels to release and loose a revival like you've
never seen before. Yes, you have heard of these things, but I tell you
that you will experience it. For those I am calling out now, I'm calling
into the depths of Myself.

I'm calling you to a higher place. I'm calling you in authority and power
to pull down those giants, to cast out the devils. Yes, I am calling you
to raise the dead and to open the blind eyes. This will be My revival.
Many souls will come out of darkness and they will come to Me because of
your obedience and for what I've asked you to do.

You will do it. Say to Me, "I will go." and I will reply that I hear
your voice. It rattles through the heavenlies.

I'm coming to drop a fresh anointing, to drop the latter rain. I am
coming to cause you to rise up in My power. You shall awaken to a
whole anointing and new place in Me. It shall arrive in your spirit
shortly. Look for it. Expect it and expect the enemy to try to pull it
down, but greater is He that is in you than he who is in the world.

I Am The Lord

"Have you not known? Have you not heard? The everlasting God,
the Lord, The Creator of the ends of the earth, neither faints
nor is weary. His understanding is unsearchable. He gives power
to the weak, and to those who have no might He increases strength."
-- Isaiah 40:28-29


Watch for Me, my children! You must keep watch for Me!

I will direct your path should you become blind in it. If you hold
fast to Me and keep only onto Me, you will discover that nothing is
required of you but only your obedience. Did I not make the way
before Moses and the Israelites and part the Red Sea for passage?
The passage that I made for them, I also made for you. It has already
been written and is done. The only thing required of the Israelites
was obedience to my voice. This is the same requirement for you. I am
the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. I have not changed.

Do not give in to the defeat of that serpent, Leviathan. The enemy will
try to fool you into thinking that I no longer perform miracles in this
day and in this hour. He will attempt to sway your judgment and debate
My Word with you. He will antagonize you and strike out at your with
accusations against Me. He will say that I do not perform miracles in
this day. But know that it is in these very circumstances that I choose
to do the impossible. I go before you, and I will part the Red Sea as
I did for the Israelites. I will perform My miracles for all to see in
this day too. I am the Lord.

When you call upon Me, I will rise up like a mighty wind. Call to Me
from the North, the South, the East and the West. I am the breath of
life and I will come to you as a gift of wisdom and strength. I will
enable you to see into the mysteries of My kingdom, and give you the
strength to withstand the things that the enemy would impose upon you.
You will reign as conquerors in Me, and I will enable you to meet any
quest that comes before you. I bring to fruition all that I have
written, from the beginning to the end.

Refuse to embrace discouragement, but embrace the inspiration that
I speak to you through nature and life. I am your Creator and I am
the Lord.

Warning for the church:

"I am alerting and warning My people who are called by My Name to search their hearts and lives to be prepared for the swift and shocking events coming in the near future.

Nothing shall take those, who are desiring to walk in holiness, from My protection and grace.

Run to Me for everything! I AM your Lord and Fortress!

There are many in the Body of Christ who continue to walk a divided pathway because they think nothing shall ever change.

Many have chosen this walk over the years and do not have any dread of My judgments coming. Their trust is in flesh and dead religion.

My Bride, My Church will be chastened and pruned and purged, even before great judgment falls upon the wicked in the world.

And what will be the outcome for all the sinful and wicked ones?

DEFEAT, DISGRACE, DESPAIR

Walk holy with My Spirit and learn the lessons in My Word now while you have time, you shall stand and receive deliverance where and when you need it! Pray and ask the Spirit of Grace to reveal the dark places within you.

These are the short days racing into the time as the days of Noah, turn and be cleansed with My Blood and allow the water
of the Word to quench your thirst.


DEFEAT, DISGRACE, DESPAIR

There will be not place to hide. There will be no words to gloss over what is truly within a man's heart,
I will now begin to lay open and expose the motivations for all to see!

Allow the fear of the Lord to permeate your being. Yes, walk as a holy priest. Live as royal spiritual children.
Work hard at crucifying your flesh daily.

Rise to new heights of My glory! Rise to new invincible days!

Choose to bear the fruit of the Holy Spirit. Choose to be a royal branch of the Eternal Vine.

Come away from the world!

Cleanse your thoughts, your words, your actions. Now is the time to get ready as never before, soon you will Rejoice in Your King!

Know your place in My plans! Know your part in My Kingdom!

Advance into the new arenas led by My Spirit! Fear nothing as you remain pure and clean!

Soon those around will say of My Church, 'They are in the world, but truly not of it!'

The knowledge of the glory of the Lord is sweeping this planet into every nation, coast to coast, mountain to mountain, border to border, sea to sea!


Stand ready as clean servant disciples to be drenched with My anointings and receive the increase of the promises in My Word.

the spirit speaks:

At War

Then he went into the Temple and began driving out those who were busy
Trading (Luke 19:45--NJB).

Be prepared, you are at war. Be alert at all times, because your enemy
never rests. Listen for Me now, so you might hear Me later
when the enemy turns up the intensity of his noise and distractions.
Learn to advance into Me. Exercise, so that you will grow strong in My
ways.

There is a constant warring, so be alert. Learn to discern who the real
enemy is, and do not battle against one another. Put away your personal
wants, desires and any hurt feelings. Draw together into Me and into
My plan.

My kingdom is expanding. I need mature soldiers to hold ground and open
new territory--those who think about what I am doing and not what is seen
in the physical realm. Be prepared, clothe yourself in My protective
righteousness. I have provided all that you need, and I will continue to
do so.

Be ready, for I am calling forth new warriors. Those warriors who rely on
Me will be safe and prosper. They will move forth in ways that I have not
yet revealed. The skies are increasing in darkness; but My light is sure
and steady. My glory radiates throughout My whole creation.

walk with me

And God blessed them; and God said to them, " Be fruitful and multiply,
and fill the earth, and subdue it; and rule over the fish of the sea and
over the birds of the sky, and over every living thing that moves on the
earth." Genesis 1:28 (NASB)

I sent my son that might know me; that you could see my heart.
I have not changed. My heart is for you. My heart is for those who do
not yet know me.

As you grow in us, you will grow in awareness of your authority.
Multiple my ways. I have not changed. I AM. My names reveal my
heart and aspects of my character.

Abiding in me you will be fruitful. My ways will multiply within you.
It is then you will sense your purpose. It is then that justice can be
administered.

Learn to walk with me; You are blessed.

The Manifestation Of My Presence

You will no longer have to wait for the manifestation of My presence,
says the Lord. For these are the days in which I shall come and touch.
These are the days in which I shall come and breathe upon you.
These are the days that I shall come and release My people from the bondages of the enemy.
For there is a cry going forth across the land; the cry of My Spirit; the cry of My voice.
Listen and you shall hear. Watch and see and you shall know for I am about to perform in this land and among
My people the greatest manifestation of My glory that ever has been seen on this earth.
In the days of old they watched for the fire upon the tent; in those days they watched for the cloud
In these days you will watch for the manifest presence of the Holy One and the breath of the Spirit shall come upon you
and move you as the wind of His glory;
into the fullness of His purposes.
For I the Lord God have not forgotten My people.

Heart Peace

Peace I leave with you.
Not the peace that the world knows,
but rather a heart peace,
that comes from knowing who you are,
as well as Whose you are.
When you know who I am,
when you trust who I am,
then you are freed to come to Me.
When you come to Me in totally trusting freedom,
you will be enabled to lay all that hinders you from,
being in a state of peace at My feet--
Every worry,
Every care,
Every concern,
Every shortfall.
Beloved, all sin and fall short.
When you bring to Me--
your sins,
your cares,
your worries,
everything and,
every person that concerns you--
then I will take all of that upon Myself.
And you will have heart peace.

Heart peace comes when you entrust and rest your heart
and all that it contains on Me,
knowing, beloved, that because you are Mine,
you shall be received.
And when you are received--
and know it in your deepest heart-
you will find peace for your heart--the peace that passes understanding:
heart peace.

I Am Here

I have not left you alone. I am right here where I have always been.
I stand here singing over you. I promised to never give you more than
you could handle and I will not. All has happened that I may rise up
strong within you and that My glory may radiate from you. It is not
about you. This is so much bigger than that.

I am here--loving you, guiding you, infusing you with wisdom from on
high. I have always provided for your every need. I have never left
you. All the comfort and peace I have, I give to you. No, it is not as
the world gives.

No challenge is too big for Me. I have it all in My hands. I love you
with an everlasting love and I will keep you. Though the world around
you shakes, you are sheltered in the shadow of My Wings. Rest in the
comfort that I am in control.

Why, My Bride, Do I Still See Such Pride?

There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ. I love you.
Remember that! Your sins were judged at the cross, so hide yourself in
Me! Never forget this; and in this heart do I want to ask you this
question: Why do you still tolerate pride? Pride is the root of all
evil and it will rob you of your rest in Me.


Do you know that the humble are lifted up and that I resist the proud?

"Where Lord?" you ask.

Every time you are not open to hear from Me and not quieting the voice
of your soul, it is pride you are following, not Me. Every time you are
not open to be corrected, it is pride. Every time you think you are much
older and more experienced than another, it is pride. Every time you
think you have arrived and don't need to be corrected anymore, it is
pride. The meek and teachable inherit the earth. I am not a respecter of
persons and My Spirit uses the foolish things of this earth. I didn't
say to be unequally yoked to one another. Still use discernment. But did
you know, I laid My equality, My position aside and became like everyone
else and humbled Myself to the point of death?


Awaken from your sleep and learn from Me, and from those I have placed
around you!

You hear Me say, take up your cross and follow Me, and you say "No, but
I'm redeemed and require to do nothing more." Yes, My love, I have
redeemed you, but I have also called you to be yoked with Me. My burden
is light and My yoke is easy, if you are in My walking in My strength.
But you will never know that strength if you refuse to fellowship with
Me. My Glory dispels darkness. My Presence changes things, people,
situations, and you!


The Pharisees said all the right things, but their hearts were far from
Me. Please don't fellowship with their company. Don't judge them either,
but do not follow their example. Instead, draw near to Me!

My dear one, come to Me. Learn from Me. I'm gentle and lowly of heart.
Never be scared to be counted as the least. The last is first, only
when in their hearts they remain humble.

It takes humility to walk with Me. The humility I require is that
you draw near to Me daily, expecting to be blessed as you have an
inheritance. But also to be molded and changed to live for My glory.

Forgive dear one, 7 x 77 times,

Remember you are seated with Me at the right hand of My Father. You are
in Me, completely righteous, so rejoice. Let's just wear the appropriate
clothes My love. You are honored. Dress like the royalty that you are
already.

I love you regardless of your works, because all I see is My finished
work on the cross. You are holy and redeemed already. Clothe yourself
in My provision for you and don't let Satan have any opportunity to
soil your white garments any longer.

Stay in My word and My presence, and you will be protected at all times
against contamination--regardless of your circumstance or people around
you. (Psalm 91.)

And then, dear one, walk in love. You will only be able to do this when
you keep sight of My love for you, and receive it daily. Be being filled
with the Spirit and let Me flood you with My love. Drink living waters
that will bubble up from you to others like a mighty river--streams of
living water, so that you and others may drink and never thirst again.

Remain in My Love. Remain in My Presence. Remain in My Word.

I can, and will, turn water into wine. Just persist to draw near and I
will clothe you.

Did you know you cannot change your thinking or works apart from letting
Me transform you by My Spirit? Rely on Me dear one,

I love you.

Be Attune

The Lord has said,

"You must be in tune to My Voice and My Spirit. Stay in your closet that
you may know My Will.

"For many are here and many more are coming that will prophesy falsely in
My Name. They do not speak for Me, but only out of their flesh. If you are
not attune to My Spirit you will walk astray of My Will. Seek and Ask that
I give to you My Keen Discernment and My Wisdom. For satan shall increase
his influence upon those that are blind to Me. He shall attempt with greater
force to sway the Body of Christ to seek after their own flesh. They shall
perceive they are doing for Me, yet it will only be of the flesh. They know
not of the things of My Spirit for they have not been anointed in My Spirit.
Therefore they can not speak in the Spirit nor speak of the Spirit, for My
anointing is not upon them.

"There are many speaking of My blessings to come. My blessings are waiting
to be poured out upon My children of Righteousness. This is true. Yet you
must realize that with these blessings I am getting ready to pour out upon
you, come great responsibilities. Know also that with these blessings come
greater attacks from satan. For he knows that his time is short. Yet I will
see that My true remnant shall prevail through these attacks. Yes the attacks
will increase. Yet remain steadfast in Me and I shall see you through. For
no weapon formed against you shall prosper. Look not at what you see, but
dwell only upon Me. You must discern My word and My word alone.

"There are many voices that will come up against you, both in the world and
in the church. Yet only the true Church, the true remnant will be able to
discern My voice. They will not hear you nor will they underst and you. For
they have not My heart nor My Spirit upon them. There are many false
witnesses that desire to see you fall. They are not Attune to Me. For they
follow after the spirit of the flesh. They refuse to yield to Me. They
refuse to yield to My Spirit and to become intimate with Me. For only in
being intimate with Me will you discern My voice and know My heart intimately.
If that is your true desire, I am waiting to pour out My Spirit upon you in
ways you have not known before. Yet the price for this intimate relationship
with Me will cost you all of yourself. Through this intimate love with Me
will you come to true peace and victory. Not many are willing to pay the
price. That is why many are called, but only few are chosen. Your only goal
should be to seek and follow after the Son. My only Son Jesus. That is and
should be your only desire. Seek Him and you shall find the kingdom. For
Jesus is the kingdom. I am truly not complicated, My children. I am not a
mystery at all. Only seek and you shall know. This is the time to seek as
never before. I am desiring a more intimate walk between us. For I am you
Father and I formed you and placed you here for My desire and not your own.
But you must be willing to yield all to Me. All of yourself to Me. I say
again, ALL OF YOURSELF MUST BE YIELDED TO ME. Your heart must be yielded to
My desire and will for your Life. Yield to Me, My children, that I may
bring you closer to Me.

"For the time is coming, and I will woo you no more."

Valley of Dry Bones

", Son of man, can these bones live?, LORD God, you alone know."
Ezekiel 37:3

Many of My people are like the dry bones in Ezekiel's vision. They are
in the valley of desolation, the valley of despair, the valley of
hopelessness, the valley of no way out and many other dismal valleys.
Many feel encased in man-made tombs and caves and the stone has been
rolled in front so they cannot escape. Many are saying, 'Our bones are
dried up and our hope is gone; we are cut off.' Ezekiel 37:11.

Everything feels dead in their lives: lost their vision for ministry,
strained relationships, with families, friends, church and their
spiritual walk with Me. Oh yes, they may continue going to church but
they never enter in, they cannot relate to what is going on around them.
They continue to function in the physical realm because of habit but in
reality they feel dead inside. Even now as many of My people read this
word they will nod their heads in agreement and YES BUT! I see no way
out of my situation. I say, YES BUT, I AM ABLE. Search through Ezekiel
37, pray through it and you will see what I AM able to do for you My
wounded child.

Just as Elijah ran from Jezebel, 40 days and 40 nights. He ran to the
cave at Mt Horeb, for he knew in his spirit that Mt Horeb is the
Mountain of God. I protected him and fed him during his time of running
because of his fear of man (in this case a woman), nevertheless, I met
him in the cave.

Just as Elisha died and was buried in his tomb (2 Kings 13:21), when the
Israelites were burying a man, suddenly they saw a band of raiders; so
they threw the man's body into Elisha's tomb. When the body touched
Elisha's bones, the man came to life and stood up on his feet. My
anointing never left Elisha, even in that dead place.

Just as Lazarus lay dead in his tomb--I AM came and commanded the stone
be rolled away and called him back to life. I commanded the grave
clothes be removed from him. I AM ABLE. I Am able to restore what the
locusts have eaten. I Am able to restore your health, your finances,
your relationships, your ministry, or whatever else you lost or what you
may lack, just know that I AM ABLE. I AM the resurrection and the Life.

My people need to quit listening to all the voices speaking around them
and to them that continues to hold them in this dead place. They need
to quit listening to themselves uttering negative words about themselves.
They need to realize that it doesn't matter what all of the voices are
saying about you, it truly only matters what you are saying about yourself
and to yourself.

My people need to stand up and prophesy to themselves. I am saying to
My people the same thing I told Ezekiel: I will put breath in you, and
you will come to life. Then you will know that I Am the LORD.

Sheep Goats And Swine

Christians with swine tendencies do not value prophetic pearls they only value/see themselves.
MY MINISTRY, When you speak/give light to them they turn and tear/attack you.
Christian swine do not understand purity, they always have some sin, (mud) they are rooting in, they justify in their hearts that compromise is some how acceptable. Christian swine are blind to the value and requirement of holiness!

Christians that have goat tendencies, butt heads with everything (except their own will/vision), (in His name of course) The Lord showed us the "Goat herder" (not shepherd) walks behind the goats actually driving them with a stick and dogs.
He has to drive the goats from behind, because they are too stubborn and independent to follow Him.

Christians with goat tendencies are always getting into trouble presuming this and that, they consume all kinds of stuff they should not consume, GOATS DO NOT UNDERSTAND FOLLOWING, SANCTIFICATION OR HOLINESS, they butt heads with it!
GOATS WALK BY GRACE NOT FAITH, GOATS  WANT GOD TO FOLLOW THEM!

Goats are also pushy, PUSHY, PUSHY, even pushing against GOD, PUSHING/praying their will/IDEAS/PLANS in HIS name, Goats do good, NOT GOD!

SHEEP, FOLLOW HIM, ANOTHER THEY WILL NOT FOLLOW, (not even themselves), MY sheep hear my voice/will and follow ME alone,
HE STOPS THEY STOP, HE MOVES THEY MOVE, HE GOES BEFORE THEM, THEY ARE THE MEEK THAT INHERIT EVERYTHING,
THEY ARE SANCTIFIED SELF DENIED, IN HOLINESS THEY DO ABIDE FOLLOWING HIS EVERY STRIDE!

To Christian sheep, following HIM is their LIFE "their gifting, calling, talents, promises and vision they do not follow.
SHEEP LEAVE EVERYTHING, SELL EVERYTHING, LEAVE EVERYONE TO FOLLOW HIM WHEVER HE GOES!
The JOY OF THE SHEEP/BRIDE IS JUST BEING WITH THE SHEPHERD, WAITING UPON HIS WORD/WILL INSTRUCTIONS SOAKING IN HIS PRESENCE, WETHER THEY EVER LEAVE THE BARN OR NOT

Time, age, support, invitation is NEVER EVER a factor for sheep, the Holy Spirit shows them the way and they follow.
They will not follow ANY THING OR ANYONE ELSE.
The Lord has been mercifully removing our swine and goat tendencies making us HIS sheep, I am thankful!
When we KNOW with 100% certainty that we are embarking on HIS path, ONLY THEN WILL WE HAVE HIS PROTECTION, PROVISION, POWER AND THE SPIRIT WITHOUT MEASURE GOING BEFORE US AND BEHIND US, JOY JOY JOY, TEARS OF JOY, AND LAUGHTER!

So, where do you wanna go today!

IN HIS FIERY ETERNAL LOVE, THIS IS GETTIN REAL GOD,,. EVERYTHING IS HEATING UP, FOR HIS APPEARING, YEEEAAAHHHH!

LORD BE IT UNTO US ACCORDING TO YOUR WORDS PRESENT PAST AND FUTURE!

LOVE

Covered and kept By Prayer

Live your life through prayer, not through your emotions so that you won't
mishandle what's within you. My purpose!


You only have to know My word. I have not delivered you and ordained you to
a calling of emotions, but to one of a steadfast faith. Give me your emotions
in prayer that there may be nothing that has not been covered in prayer and
that the enemy may not pull you from under the shadow.

Whether you feel it at the time or not, submit your feelings and thoughts to
me in prayer, as unaligned with My will as they may be, that I may
align them with what I'm saying concerning your life.

The mantel which you carry and is one too heavy to ride upon the wave of
your emotions or on outward suggestions. It must be upheld and handled by
the position of prayer, and of faith through who you know me to be. I
proved My power to you when I delivered your mind and I proved My power to
you when I set you free from sin. Don't allow the fact that things are not
appearing to go the way that I've promised to prevent you from walking
out that place of promise. It's yours, so hold on. But it's only yours
by way of holding on to the promise that I've given you concerning your
destiny. And it's only yours through the trying of your mind and your
will to be in complete agreement with who I say you are.

My promise will be unto you according to your God-moving faith, not
according to your emotions. Hold on to that which I've promised.
