Believe and Receive
“You know what I can do, but I want you to believe that I will do it for you without exception, exemption, denial, or disapproval as you entrust everything to Me,” says The LORD.
“Give me what you know. Abandon the fears of the unknown. Trust that I AM your God, your provider, your Savior and LORD of everything that pertains to you.
“You are just as valuable to me as anyone who ever was, is, and will be.
“I have no favorites, but I do require you to have faith in Me and My power to perform miracles in your life, and the lives of those you entrust to My care,” says The LORD.
“Don’t exempt yourself by believing the lies of the enemy that tells you that you are not worthy, you are not valuable, you are not on the list to receive,” says The LORD.
“I have made you worthy by your faith in My finished work on The Cross for you.
“You are precious to Me. I gave My life for you, and brought you into My Kingdom and My Family, and made you a king and a priest unto Me.
“The list does not exist. But the records are accurate, and they record every prayer and act of faith and trust in Me.
“Your Faith can and will move mountains of difficulties, destroy the diabolical plans and works of the enemy, and conquer new territory for My Kingdom, by My Power that I have invested in you.
“Just believe that all that I AM and all that I do and all that I give and all that I have belongs to you, and you have every right to enjoy the benefits and blessings that I freely give to everyone who will believe!” says The LORD.
Recovery, Restoration, Promotion
“Don’t waste your time and energy while racking through the ash heaps of the ruins of your life, looking for anything that you can salvage,” says The LORD.
“You do not need the trinkets of the past in light of the treasures that await you. Your dreams and plans that lie in ruins are not your ruin. I have a new and better plan for you.
“I have a greater purpose and vision for you that exceeds anything that you once held onto that was nothing in comparison to what will be.
“The grounds will be cleared, the new foundation set, and what I build for you will be for time and eternity,” says The LORD.
“My servant, David, did not receive promotion without destruction of his temporary place,” says The LORD.
“He did not recover all until he had lost everything. What He gained was not the rebuilding of Ziklag, but the renewal of The Kingdom.
“He did not just recover his losses, but spoiled the enemy. He did not just overcome, he was triumphant. I will do the same for you.
“Double for your trouble is not the limits that I set, for I will give you more than that as you entrust Me with the new that is far better, far more reaching, and I will beautify you, expand your borders, and use you greatly for My glory.
“Demotion was of man and promotion comes from Me, and the latter will far exceed the former, and you will have peace, productivity, power, authority, and be blessed to be a blessing!” says The LORD.
There is a Lion Who is Watching
Though the enemy goes about imitating a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour; though he goes about as a laughing hyena and a predatory jackal, and a hungry wild dog, know this, Beloved.
There is a Lion who is watching him.
The Lion is the Lamb who withstood this same abuse. He took our place even unto the death.
But now He is alive, and when the Lion sees the jackals and the hyenas and the wild dogs messing with His cubs, the Lion begins to show His teeth.
And then He ROARS!
When God arises, the enemy is scattered!
Beloved, The Lion is watching over you.
Though the enemy comes like the laughing hyena, circling and mocking you;
Though the jackals creep close, testing the boundaries, looking for an opening;
Though the wild dogs gather, believing there is strength in their numbers;
They have made one terrible mistake.
They have believed that My Precious Cub is unguarded.
They do not see the Papa Lion watching from the High Place.
They do not understand whose territory they have entered.
And they have forgotten WHOSE CHILD YOU ARE.
The Lion watching over you is also the Lamb.
He knows what it is to be surrounded.
He knows what it is to be mocked.
He knows what it is to hear the laughter of His enemies.
He knows what it is to be beaten, wounded, rejected and seemingly overcome.
The Lamb did not fight His way off The Cross.
He stayed there for you.
He took your place even unto death.
But death could not hold Him.
The grave could not contain Him.
Hell could not defeat Him.
The Lamb that was slain AROSE.
And the Lamb is THE LION.
The enemy is exposing himself.
The hyenas laugh.
The jackals creep closer.
The wild dogs circle.
The adversary whispers,
“Where is your God now?”
The Lion has never taken His eyes off His cub.
Your Father has not abandoned you.
Your Defender has not fallen asleep.
Your Protector has not left His post.
The enemy may be watching you
but Someone is watching the enemy.
And when the Lion sees the jackals, the hyenas and the wild dogs messing with His cubs,
THE LION BEGINS TO SHOW HIS TEETH.
And then THE LION ROARS!
And when the Lion roars, everything changes.
The hyenas stop laughing.
The jackals stop creeping.
The wild dogs stop circling.
The darkness discovers that the little one it thought was defenseless belongs to THE KING.
Beloved, you may feel small sometimes.
You may feel vulnerable.
You may look around and wonder why so many things seem to be circling you at once.
But do not confuse vulnerability with abandonment.
You are not alone on the savanna.
You are not an abandoned cub.
YOU BELONG TO THE LION OF JUDAH.
When the enemy circles again, Beloved, remember:
Your Lion stands over you.
Your Lion calls you His Beloved.
Your Lion is watching him.
Your Lion will ROAR and scatter the enemy!
When God arises, His enemies are scattered!
The Lion of the Tribe of Judah has prevailed!
Granite
“I AM the ROCK on which you are to stand!
I AM El Gibor, the Mighty One of Israel!
There is nothing I AM unable to do.
There is nothing I cannot take care of in your life!
I want you to learn beloveds to live without all the luxuries, without all the “fluff” you have lived with before this time.
For times are coming which try men’s souls and in fact are already here.
You must learn to live with less.
You must learn to live as strangers in a dry and barren land.
You must l earn to travel light — to be ready at a moment’s notice to go here or to go there.
You must learn obedience to the still small voice in this way, that I can keep you in the days to come.
What would you take if you knew a nuclear bomb were going off less than fifty miles from you in the next few days?
??Do you have confidence in My Ability to protect you and guide you?
Will you allow Me to guide you?
Will you follow My instructions?
Are you that FLEXIBLE? Because, you need to be beloveds! The only safe place is in Me!
In the Shadow of My Wings will I keep you if you will surrender to My Will.
Treasure that your name is written in The Lamb’s Book of Life, for this is all that matters in this world.
All your things will not save you in the time of trouble. Only what I lead you to do and where I lead you to go will save you.
??Don’t be like the ostrich in the desert. Don’t hide your head in the sand refusing to listen to My prophets!
When I tell you to “Stay!” then you STAY!
When I tell you to “Stand!” then STAND!
When I tell you to “Fight!” then FIGHT with The Word and in Worship!
Don’t back down unless I say to back down!
Don’t be afraid of the faces of man. You can face anyone with confidence if you will listen to My Voice above all else.
Adhere to Me like barnacles to whales!
Adhere My Word to your heart so that you know what it says!
Fill your mind and soul with My Word!
The day is coming when it will be taken from you. Hide it in your hearts! Proclaim it to the heavens and bring down demonic strongholds!
Take an offensive stand!?
?Relegate the enemy to a posture of defense as there is no defense against forgiveness and humility.
Forgive one another as I have forgiven you!
Do I not forgive you ALL your trespasses?
Then will you forgive men all their trespasses as I have forgiven you?
Do this — and you will have learned a great lesson and you will find the enemy leaving you alone with accusations!
Walk in Humility, not considering yourself better than others and you will have peace with men.??
I want you to be like granite, like an impermeable rock that cannot be moved away from obedience to Me.
I want you to stand when all else and everyone else is telling you something different, yet you follow Me, despite all their advice.
Do not give in to distractions of others, or their assumptions about you.
Do not give in to their judgments of your situation.
You have to answer to Me alone, not to them. It is I you will stand before in the end — not man!
It is I you will have to give an account to for every Word that proceeds from your mouth.
Be longsuffering. Be fore-bearing. ??I will humiliate anyone who comes against a brother.
?Note — I said a Believer, not a goat, not a wolf, but another Sheep, another true follower of Me.
You are not to honor wolves. You are not to honor the devil. You are to honor Me, My Father, and the Most Holy Spirit.
You are to honor men in respecting them and the boundaries they put up.
Each man is responsible for his own behavior. You cannot change another. You can only sow seeds.
If you say something to someone and they don’t respond, it isn’t your responsibility if they don’t accept My Love — which includes My Correction!
No word that you say will make a difference, unless it is spoken by direction of My Spirit!
If you do it just to say something, you have become religious!
Your walk is directed by Me when I AM doing the leading and you are following. But if you do things that seem good, out of obligation or just to do something, or to prove something, then it is futility, not Obedience.
A lot of things seem good to a man, yet are from his own heart.?
Come to Me and spend time with Me in The Secret Place, then you will know what to do.
I don’t need you to save the world, I can do that on My own if I need to.
I want you to spend time with Me and receive My Love, so that you will be girded with strength and come to attain the fullness of Me.
That is the most important thing for you!
For then, all that you do will be done out of relationship with Me, and understanding who you are in Me.
Not only will you have confidence, but you will have fullness of Anointing that breaks the yoke of bondage!
But so long as you don’t know the fullness of My Love, you will be limited!
“That you may have the power and be strong to apprehend and grasp with all the saints [God’s devoted people, the experience of that love] what is the breadth and length and height and depth [of it]; [That you may really come ] to know [practically, through experience for yourselves] the love of Christ, which far sur-passes mere knowledge [without experience]; that you may be filled [through all your being] unto all the fullness of God [may have the richest measure of the divine Presence, and become a body wholly filled and flooded with God Himself]! Now to Him Who, by (in consequence of) the [action of His] power that is at work within us, is able to [carry out His purpose and] do superabundantly, far over and above all that we [dare] ask or think [infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, hopes, or dreams] — To Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations forever and ever. Amen (so be it).??” The one who knows MY love, My humility and forgiveness is one who can walk in apostolic power and authority, and in whom I can trust not to take the glory for them-selves.” ??Ephesians 3:18-21 AMPC.
Know that I have a lot more for you in the days ahead, and only if you will lay down all the doing for just being with Me, and taking My Yoke upon you for I AM humble of heart and I will give you strength and love to endure the days ahead.
I will give you a new Heart!
Come, and lay down at My Feet and lay down all your burdens.
The only real way to strength is to lay down your own strength and to depend on Me for Mine!”
